P0VERTY IN DAKOTA.

Yhe Daily Tribune of this city, IN its
issue of Sunday. January ID, contained
some three columns from special cor
respondent up in Walsh county Dakota,
in which it is made to appear that Iov-
erty and starvation stares some of the
people of that section in the face. Many
Of the papers throughout Dakota
have seen fit to comment-some of
them in most torcib.e manner upon
the Tribune's correspondence. The
Weekly Herald Of Grafton, Walsh
county, OAK, in its issue OF January 10:
pays it's compliments to the Tribune in
a column article, from which we quote
the following:
"The inference is that the writer Of
this precious etfusion in his attempt to
he accurate has over-reached himself,
and even allowing that he did come UP
here, which we beg leave to doubt
suppose he did 6nd few families in a
condition OF comparative poverty, is
there any comparison between these
half dozen people who can Immediately
relieve their wants by contracting a
loan-for all Of them have collateral
and the starving thousands of Mime
apolis? If the Tribune has our interests
so much at heart is this the way to
show it, to call the attention of the
world to a few isolated cases Of poverty :!
There must baYe been some incentive
to the publication OF this stuff in the
prominent and elaborate manner in
which it WAS put before the public and
the only inference to be derived from the
facts, is that the Tribune did not want
to publish the matter as an article OF
news. but must give it sensational
form without regard to consequences to
us, and make the most of the few cases,
where the tenderfoot writer, not being
used to life on the frontier, thought the
absence of brownstone fronts on the
prairie denoted an awful degree of pow
erty, and was Mortified at finding more
than two people occupying the same
sleeping apartment"
We are rather inclined to think that
the Herald Is right in it's conclusions in
this matter. There has not been any
good grounds for such an article as ap-
peared in the Tribune regarding the
condition Of Walsh county. Poverty
may exist in some sections of Dakota
where dc es it not2 buJ The IR1sH
STANDARD CAN heartily say, from OBJ
servations cleaned by it's representative
from various travels made in all seasons
OF the year throughout the length and
breadth of the territory, that there is no
better section of Dakota, all things con-
s,dered, than that in which Walsh
county is situated. Dakota is known
as O. great grain growing territory.
N othing has done SO much during the
past ten years to add to its growth and
prosperity az this fact alone, and anyone
who has taken or will take the trouble
to examine carefully. will find Walsh
county above the average Of Dakota
counties in growth OF cereals and gen.
eral products. Such being the case it
seems unjust aud entirely uncalled for
to single Walsh county out for the pow
erty that exists within its boundaries.
1t is not there any more than here.

JOHN HANCOCK, Of Worth county,
Ga, says that he can remember when
every member of the Georgia Legis-
iature was dressed in homespun. 1t
was in 1929, when the tariff had caused
wooden goods to reach such an exorbi-
tant price that the Legislature resolved
as man:to buy no more manufactured
cloth until the tariff Was reduced; and
they kept the resolu ion.

killing GOtham's VagabOnd Dogs

/. The method of killing the dogs now
in vogue is much more hnman than the
old one of drowning. They are put into
an oblong covered box lined with zinc
and large enough to hold forty-eight-
The dogs are admitted through yertic-
ally-opening door at one end. As soon
as the box is full the door is closed and
ordinary illuminating gas, drawn from
street main, is turned on, by a valve IN
the top of the box. The dogs fall asleep
without pain and in few minutes are
dead. Then the gas is turned into the
river by valve in the bottom of the box.
A door at the end Of the box opposite 10
that by which the dogs entered is raised
and the bottom of the box, which travels
on rollers, is drawn out with the carcases.
The average number Of dogs received q.
the pound is about seventy-tivc day

and then, almost disregarding the people
against whom he jostled in his hurry, he
fastened on to the street in which Miss
Mitchell lived.
As he ran he would not permit himself
to tell what it was he feared; but as he
neared the house there was the very sight
he had most dreaded. That long line of
carriages could have but one meaning;
and now he hoped only to see her face
once more.
Eluding the grasp of the attendant at
the door he entered the house, and the
sound of music reached him, music that
he knew to be full Of JOY and hope to
others, though to him it seemed knell.
As Milford turned to go sorrowfully
away, realizing now the truth, Miss
Mitchell, leaning on another's arm, came
out into the hall and bright and happy
faces crowded about her, while laughing
voices wished her happiness and good
fortune.-Ihe Epoch.

Voting bv Electricity.

The plan of voting in assemblies by
means of the electric current, and thus
avoiding the time lost in making divi-
sions, has been before the French Cham
Der of Deputies, and report on the sub
ject was presented by NJ. Montant. In
that report the ACCESSIBILITY of employ
ing a machine which would indicate not
only the total votes ''pour' or ''contre''
measure-that is to say the "ayes" and
''noes''-but also the number of volun-
tary abstentions from voting, as distinct
from the mber of absentees. Such an
apparatus has been devised by N. lie
Goaziou. On every desk in front of
member is placed a small box fitted with
two handles, which the member works
when registering his vote. The right
handle registers his AYE" the left his
mo" and both moved simultaneously
indicate his abstenti0n from voting. The
results are printed by means OF electro
magnets in a receiver, and are visible at
glance Provision is made for member
to recall and correct his vote during tia
time allowed for the purpose.

SOME DAY.

They'll all come back again." she said,
That by-gone summer day,
The while we watched the goodly ships
Upon the placid bay.
''They sail so far, they sail SO fast, upon their
shining way,
But they will come again, know, some day
some other day"
Some day, So many a watcher sighs
When wind-swept waters moan,
With tears pressed back, still strives to
dream
Of the glad coming home.
Good ships sail on DER angry waves, meath
skies all tempest gray,
For quivering lips SO bravely tell: They'll
come again-some day."
Some day! We say it DER and DER,
To cheat our hearts, the while
We send our cherished ventures forth,
Perchance with sob or smile;
And tides run out, and time runs on, our life
Gibbs fast away,
And yet with straijsing eyes we watch for
that sweet myth-some day!
Full many a true and heart-sped bark
May harbor find no more.
But Hope her beacon-light will trim
For watchers on the shore;
And those who bide at home and those upon
the watery way,
In toll or waiting, still repeat: ''Some day
some blessed daym
