THERE seem to be a few local would
be statesmen who think that To-
cation of residence cuts an important fig
ure in the selection of United States SEN
ators. 1t does not and ought not. In
New York state, on two or three occa-
sions, both senators have been from the
same town, and even in none of the
states do we hear the locality cry.
Craftsmanship and fitness are the essen
tails required-not %postotfice address. It
matters not where the senator lives-he
is in Washington most of the time any,
how-so long as he has a broad, unbi-
ased mind, keeps in touch with the lead
ing mon and grasps the progressive ideas
of the day. Senator Pierce is not the
candidate of the Missouri slope. This
section simply adds its voice to a popu-
lar feeling that Senator Pierce has done
we'll in Washington, has made a clean
and creditable record and that he, having
represented we'll and truly the best ma

impartially, no mistake will be made in
his return. Objections from democrats
through the st. Paul Globe ought to
count for little with his constituents in
North Dakota, and if the leading men of
the Red river valley are pleased with
Senator Pierce and believe his return to
the United States senate to be for the
best interests of the state, it will GER
tainly be with bad grace that opposition
should be fostered in a county where the
people know that when the test was ap-
piled on more than one occasion he
proved his loyalty to his town and
state.

The NAPoLEAN legislative convention
passed a resolution favoring a liberal
legislative appropriation for the Worlds
Fair. This is important and timely and
in doing this Senator Worst and his as
sociates have exhibited c~ommendable
forethought. North Dakota ought to be
we'll represented at the Worlds Fair and
nothing short of a liberal appropriation
will make it a SUCCESS.

The st. Paul Globe seems to have con-
ceived the idea that North Dakota is not
able to take care of her own political
business and it volunteers to help us out.
The Globe is about the only paper that
gives encouragement to Buncomb Ben
ton. One would think, if he didn't know
better, that Benton wa running for con-
gress in Minnesota. Possibly he is-at
least he is not running much up here.

THE democrats over in Morton county
nominated Messrs. Faust and Schultze
Tor the house, but made no nomination
for the senate. It's understood they will
endorse Mr.. Miller, who will be nomi-
mated by the republicans. The republi-

It's likely Messrs. Miller for the senate
and Holritz and Engler for the house
will be nominated.

very ancient beast, Boosting an ancestry be-

ever man has pushed his way this fond friend

bly,, in southeastern Europe and the Asiatic
and African countries near the eastern end of
the Mediterranean. Alas! it did not choose to
remain there. As early as 1903 it was intro
duced to polite, and more particularly to other,
society in England, whence it was brought to
America. Certain malicious Investigators have
asserted that the insect originated on this con-
tinent, but there is the best evidence that il
was personally known to such ancient authorities
as the playwright Aristophanes, as well as to
Pliny, Dioscorides and Aristotle.

TEACHING CAVALRY TO SWIM.
A New Exercise Introduced In German
Maneuvers.

from the New YORK sun.
The growing conviction in Germany that cav
airy in the next war will be almost solely
valuable for accommodating has led to the in
PRODUCTION of regular and painstaking exercises
in swimming for men and beasts. The first of
these exercises is to accustom the horse to the
water, for although every horse is naturally
good swimmer the PHYSICAL shock incident to
entering the strange element not infrequently
renders him incapable of swimming. A cavalry
officer has recently expressed the opinion that
the failure to judge a horses swimming powers
first after the horse had been accustomed to
the water had resulted in a general under
estimate OF the possibility of an efficient SWIM
ming cavalry in war. The horse is first
led into stream with q moderate current to
facilitate swimming. A guide line is fastened
to its neck and is held and carried forward by
swimming cavalryman. Then comes the
swimming with the line and later with empty
saddle, with a clothed cavalryman, with straw
packets, and finally with all the regular bag
gage. After this comes the exercises Of cav
airy troops in bodies, till the transport of
whole squadrons and regiments has been &C.
complished without the aid of a single plank or
pontoon; The Russian cavalry has already
been drilled 30 thoroughly in swimming that
horses without riders are often made to swim
two or three miles. This year special drill in
swimming was carried on by the cavalry sta
toned at konigsberg Breslau, Karlsruhe and
Berlin. In the last maneuvers Of the first

Western Apples Coming East.
From the Kansas City Times
The apple crop OF Missouri and Kansas is
gathered and the apples are now practically in
the hands Of eastern dealers. For the first time
in the history Of the country buyers have been
driven west Of the Mississippi for apples to
supply the east. These buyers operate in diff.
ferent ways. Sometimes they purchase the
orchards and pick the apples themselves, some
times they buy the apples in barrels and some
times they get the apples a. they are piled in
the orchards. The principal varieties purchased
here are Ben Davis, Wine Sap, Gsnetin and Mis-
souri, Pippin different radically from the Bald.
wins, Greenings, Russets and Northern Spys of
the east Buyers universally admit that the
best apples on the North American continent
are to be found in northwestern Missouri and
northeastern Kansas.
The ruling prices for apples purchased by
the barrel vary from e1.50 to %25O according
to location and quality. When the orchards
are purchased BY the buyers the cost has been
sometimes above the maximum and below the
minimum, depending upon the shrewdness Of
the farmer In driving the bargain.
