HE governors inaugural was we'll
received by both branches of the legis.
latnre and by the listening spectators.
1t was necessarily general in character
but it is vigorous and manly and evil
IDENTIFY comes from a sincere man. Those
interested in prohibition are pleased
with his declaration that laws would be
enforced or repealed. 4 lady corre-
spondent recently suggested in a Fargo
paper that if the citizens who complain
because the laws are not enforced would
do their duty as citizens instead of COM
planning Of others for not doing theirs
there would be little cause for COM
plant. The governor evidently enter
tairs the same ideas. Other laws he
seems to think need fixing up and ex-
presses the belief that the railroad COM
panies would obey the laws if they were
Just and reasonable. but his language
leaves a doubt whether the elevators
would. The document is we'll worth
reading, and appears in full this morn

Tor a day or so, expect to leave this
morning for Mandan, where is to be
held a meeting of the executive commit
tee OF the West Missouri Stock aseocia-

interested in stock raising in the west
ern part Of the state, and are looking
toward the enactment of more perfect
laws for their protection. The stock
raising industry is rapidly becoming one
OF the foremost in the state, and those
who are among the more largely inter.
ested are anxious for the cooperation
OF the state legislature in the provision
OF better brand laws, better herd laws,
good fire protection and other measures
which are essential to the success Of the
rapidly increasing insdustry.

HE report OF the railroad commission
ers quotes a letter of ex-Chairman Coo
ley, of the inter-stat m CON-
mission, illustrating the difficulties of
railroad management, and, in particular,
OF the preparation of rate schedules.
Judge Cooley, referring to the early work
OF the commission, says: "The result
had been that the railroad a in.
stead OF coming into hearty cooperation
With the several state commissions, had
either assumed a hostile position or, at
least, had stood apart and left them to
enforce, as best they might, such rules
as the law or as their own best Judgment
had established, without giving them
such assistance as would be important to
make regulations provided for in either
way most etfectual."

bring to bear upon it. The insolvency

Nor!CE of the fourth annual meeting
of the constitutional convention ~associa-

given by Secretary Rowe. These an

is believed the attendance at the forth
coming meeting will be large and the
proceedings enjoyable. On this same
date the state editorial ASSOCIATION also
meets in Bismarck, and with the sen .
atorial razzle.dazz!e likely to be going
on at that time there promises to be no
lack of excitement.

The question of how best to protect
the stockmen of the state from losses
among their herds. caused by the i'm
portation Of southern cattle Infected
with contagious diseases, is ~ import
ant one. The following from the Dick
inson Press doubtless expresses the
feeling among the ranchmen in that
section:
The Press has come to the following
conclusion. namely: That the proper
thing to ask the legislature to do in this
respect is TO enact II state quarantine law.
Let it be rigid and with SO heavy a pen
atty attached that the party buying will
not care To violate one OF its provisions.
If it We're lett as, open as is the proclama-
ton which appears elsewhere in this
issue. it would do no good and such Il law
would better never be enacted.

1t is altogether probable that Cover
nor Burke will still remain a resident OF
North Dakota. The governor was
called away recently by telegram. an
nouncing the necessity of his presence
on important business. 1t now tran
spires that the occasion was q meeting
of principal stockholders IN the COM
pany Of which he was to have been
president, and the business of which
was to have been located in Superior.
In consequence of the disagreement be-
tween some of these stockholders. the
present indications are that the deal,
in its proposed shape, at least. will not
be consummated. New arrangements
may possible be made. leaving out one
or more of those who are at present in
te-ested. hut it is thought to be very
unlikely that Governor Burke will be a
party thereto. He has had several add
~vautageous business offers under con-
sideratiou, and it is to be hoped that he
may complete arrangements which in
sure his remaining a citizen Of this
state. Matters in connection with the
Superior company had reached a stage
where the governor might have held all
parties to their agreements. but he. of
course, was unwilling to take such a
course. His friends will regret if this
outcome should prove a misfortune to
Governor Burke, but will be glad to
learn that he is not to establish himself
elsewhere.

THOUSANDS AT p!NNER.

Unique Picture to lie Seen Any Summer
Day In ChtcasO's Lumber District.
Seven thousand persons at dinner
is one of the sights to be witnessed
daily at Chicago. One may find this
mammoth picnic in progress any
working day during the navigation
sc&son in the great lumber section
lying along Twenty-second street
from Halsted to Western avenue.
This is the seat of the lumber trade
of the country. No city in the Unit
ed States can produce its equal.
The territory covered by this indus
try is about three miles long by
from n half to three-quarters of n
mile wide. There are other sections
of the city, notably on the North
branch, where much lumber is
stored. yet the southwestern district
IS the main lumber region of Chica-
go. This territory contains about
lG0 yards, there being some 80 on the
North branch. Nearly 10000 men
are employed in the southwestern
lumber yards during the summer
They are mostly of the Scandinavian
races and Poles. A few Germans
and Irislmeit arc as..o.ig sIiem. but
no colored men are to be found.
st 1880 a. IN. every day the wo-
men and children begin to flock into
the lumber district bearing the hus-
bands and fathers midday luncheon.
With hardly an exception those who
bear the luncheon bring also bucket
of beer with them.
When the noon whistle blows at
the planning mills, Twenty-second
street, which is usually very quiet
thoroughfarc in this neighborhood,
becomes one of the most populous
avenues III the city. From every
street, alleyway on side track passage
emerge the lumber handlers. At the
outer edge of the yards they are met
by their wives and frequently two
or three children. Then the family
picks pile of boards and in n jiffy Is
at dinner, the bucket of beer occupy
ing the center of the group.
Lunch over, the men enjoy a social
half hour with their families, improv-
ing the occasion to smoke, as the
practice is not permitted in the yards
When the 1 o'clock whistle sounds,
the great throng melts away as if by
magic.
These lumber hands earn from 81 25
to S1.75 day, and from such earn
ings some of them save enough to
buy comfortable homes, though the
majority of them live from hand to
mouth. Nearly ,OCO, 600. 600 feet of
pine lumber alone is handled in Chi
cago every year, exclusive of the
