Constitutional Prohibition.

HE REPUBLICAN hopes that none
will be SO foolish enough to deny
the fact that North Dakota as a
whole, OF at least good majority
Of the voters, are in favor Of con-
stitutional prohibition, and the
chances are, some believe, that we
will have such a clause incorporated
in our constitution by the delegates
in convention assembled, but if not
then it will be submitted to the peo-
pie as a separate question and if
adopted will become plank in our
constitution. It seems to us that
the latter idea is the proper one
The REPUBLICAN is unqualifedly
in favor of constitutional prohibi-
tion for North Dakota, but we be-
lieve that in order to satisfy the class
Of middle or neutral voters that the
friends OF prohibition do not intend
to allow any gag law to become
operative. Let the earnest friends
Of prohibition be fair and free from
cranliness. Work manfully, as
your cause involves the principles
of right and virtue. All Of the
moral arguments are in your favor.
The masses Of the Republican party
are with you now, as they have ever
been before, and at the polls your
noble cause will march away victor
ious. Sobriety means honest and
virtuous people. The friends to the
movement are in the majority and
The REPUBLICAN believes they can
afford to be magnanimous, but in
being magnanimous do not lose
sight Of the important fact that
North Dakota must be cold water
State.

Some of our young men have i'll
vested this sprlng in new vehicles,
Harry Barrett with his pretty black
pony and new gig being the cause
of good deal OF admiration.
1t would make goat laugh to

wroth, although she smiled with her lips and whispered: '.An omen. Royal Har- machis." For though she was so much . woman, yet. when she was angered or suf- fered jealousy, Charmion had a childish way.
 Having thus fixed the chaplet, she court esied low before me, and with the softest tone of mockery named me, in the Greek tongue, "Harmachis, King of Love-" Thereon Cleopatra laughed and pledged me as "King of love-" and so did all the com pauy, fnding the jest 8 merry one. For in Alexandria they love not those who live straightly and turn aside from women.
 But sat there, smile upon my lips and black anger in my heart. For, knowing who and what was, 1t irked me to think myself jest to the frivolous nobles and light beauties of Cleopatra's Court. But chiefly was I angered against Charmion, because she laughed the Ioudest, and then I did not know that laughter and bitterness are often the vails of sore heart where with it wraps its weakness from the world. "An omen,' she said it was-that crown of towers-and so it proved indeed. For I was fated to barter the double diadem of the Upper and the Lower Land for wreath of passions roses that fade even ere they fully bloom, and Pharaohs ivory bed of state for the pillow of faithless woman's breast.
