No one has right to trif1e even with
the slightest opportunity of being use

quiet joy in dropping an appropriate

ciously expresses sympathy, or utters
his convictions in tones of virtuous per-

mis- humble life than another who en-

A PURE child, like ray of sunshine,
can 60 anywhere without contracting
taint. Though choice of association
is essential to wholesome development,
yet normal and healthful child may
come in contact with great deal Of
roughness and vice without being in
jured by it. This can only be however
when the child carries with it continu-
ally the atmosphere of pure, elevated,
Christian home. The intuitions of a
child thus nurtured will make it shrink
from the taint of vice and keep it pure.

IT is sad. inexpressibly sad, to read Of
storms as severe as have ragged recently
in Chicago, and other eastern cities. II
is narrowing to the soul to learn that
there are countries where the weather
becomes cold enough and the snow
binding enough and the winds fierce
enough to imperil human lives, and, in
some cases, to cause even death. 1t
SEEMS hardly possible to realize that
snow can ever fall heavily enough to
blockade street cars and affect, seriously,
the ordinary, everyday business of a
city. And yet, from telegraphic reports
which are presumably reliable, we are
forced to believe that these conditions
of weather prevail sometimes, and are
productive Of excessive discomfort and
suffering. To the people who are forced
to live in such places, sincere sympathy
is literally extended, From Bismarck,
where billiards. are evils not we'll
enough known to be dreaded, a full
measure Of coincidence is extended to
the populace of blizzard stricken Chi
cago. It is difficult to believe that
storms SO severe as the one reported can
occur, and yet, if it be So, the people of
the Missouri slope are truly sorrowful
and sympathetic.

IT is noticeable and pleasing to those
who live in an Indian. country-.near the
reservations where Uncle Sans wards
are kept-that the government is making
an especial effort this year to punish
those who persist in selling whisky to
the redskins. The Indians, even in t ,eir
normal condition, are difficult to control,
and when their skins are soaked with
the evil brands of redeye which is dis.
pensed to them by unprincipled persons
who have no thought aside from per.
sonal gain, their control is next to i'm
possible. 1t is q recognized fact that
whisky has q more maddening effect on
an Indian than upon other races. And
the brands of whisky which are dis
pensed by those who are unprincipled
enough to sell to Indians, r sufficiently
vile to induce even the calmest Of the
white race to commit almost any
crime, from petty larceny to murder.
There are about a half dozen persons in
various jails in the state, awaiting trial
for this ~offense, and their conviction will
have 9 healthy influence.

CALAMITY howlers would do we'll to
note that in twenty-five agricultural
states and territories, 60 out of every 100
farmers own the farms they cultivate.
Seventy out of every 100 of these farms
are free from incumbrance. Thirty per
cent. are mortgaged, and the average
amount of the mortgage is IS per cent.
of the value of the farm. Seventy five
per cent. of these mortgaged represent
deferred payments upon the purchase of
the farms or money borrowed to build
houses, barns and other improvements.
Twenty-Five per cent. represents debts
contracted by farm-owners for other pur-
poses. The average rate of interest paid
upon farm mortgages IN the states named
is a little less than z per cent. The in
numbered farms are worth an average of
$3.50, with an average mortgage OF
s1,13O and average annual interest pay
ment of $$78, which does not sustain the
cry that the farmers earnings all go to
the shylocks, and that the masses are
toiling to enrich the money-lenders.
Those who are loud IN bowling should
find something to sustain their croakings.
Statistics fail to do it.

practical benefit which confronted the
wool growers of the state, and they met
the question with the answer that
through protection would accrue to
them the greatest benefit They are
protectionists, in the sense of the term
which is accepted and argued by repub-
hcans. And as 1t is with wool in a wool
growing country, so it is with all other
staples and manufactured articles in the
localities where their production Is con-
siderable enough to be important. The
protection which is needed by wool
growers, is needed in just the same de-
gree by the farmer who raises grain and
potatoes, and by the manufacturer who
converts raw materials into articles of
general use. The democratic wool
grower who argues for protection in his
own business, but who is opposed to the
protection of those engaged in other &C.
equations, occupies a position which
fairness, alone, renders untenable. He
wants a Jug handle tariff, such as the
Wilson bill embodies. He cannot argue
for the protection of wool, without ad-
hitting the wholesomeness and benefit
of the system of general protection.

ONE thing which was made apparent
by the fire last night, is that the fire de-
partment needs more apparatus to work
with, and especially is this true in the
matter of hose. The Thousand feet of
hose recently purchased by the city is a
great help to the fremep, but even that
amount is not sufficient. Where a fire
originates in the center of a thickly
builded square, as did the one last night,
there must be hose enough to play on
half a dozen different places at the same
time. With the present amount of hose
which is serviceable, this can hardly
be done. Some of the old hose
which has been condemned, and after
ward repaired, was impressed into
service, and as was expected, a
section burst, rendering the whole
line which had been laid, useless. AS
it was, the fremen we're successful, and
extinguished the flames, but the time
may come, when will be needed more
hose than the city has. AS soon as the
city is in condition to warrant it, 500 or
1000 feet Of hose should be purchased.
This done, the department can cope with
almost any fire, even under the most
trying circumstances.

The appointment of G. B. Little as
receiver for the Bismarck Water com
pany in district court to-day, was a wise
one. AS president of the company, Col.
Little is thoroughly in touch with it's
management, and under his supervision,
the interests of both the stockholders
and bondholders as we'll as those of the
creditors, will be carefully looked after.
The company itself has been insolvent
for some time, and has only been kept
on it's feet by the financial advances of
the stockholders, who, because of the
general financial depression and strin-
gency, and because Of the judgments &C.
CURED against the company in court on
Monday, have acquiesced in the petition
of the creditors, and consider the ~
pointment IF a receiver the wlsest plan,
under the circumstances. Mr.. Little
has the interests of the company at
heart, and will make a competent and
efficient receiver.

democratic party will lose another sup
porter. ,Schurz has supported Cleveland
and the democracy from Alpha to- Omega.
Harper's Weekly has sounded his and
democracy's praises. Even in matters
Hawaiian, Cleveland has found one of
his few supporters in Schurz. But even
he has become tired of waiting, and he
says:
The people are growing weary of the
democratic party. They are out of patience
with it because of its inefficiency. Its cow
ardice, its lack Of principle and consist
ency, its imbecility. 1t would seem as though
it had become habituated to cringe be-
fore a republican majority, to abandon
principle and honor, to secure by cunning
what it dare not openly fight for, that now,
in the day when it is in power in both the
executive and legislative branches Of the
government, it still cringes before the
threats, and is still afraid of the taunts of
its opponents. 1t dare not execute the
commission given to it. 1t does not trust
in the majority behind it. 1t has no conf
dence in its principles. A company of
populists, whose existence is due to its own
folly, scare its statesmen in the south, and
a noisy band of protected manufacturers
make them tremble in the north.

The success which attended the efforts
of the wool growers, who were leaders in
The effort to arrange a convention and
establish an association-the success of
which was amply proven by the liberal
attendance, the harmony and the en-
thusiasm which characterized the SON
vention of yesterday afternoon IS high
:ly pleasing, to say the least. The state
now has, what the rapidly increasing
extent of the wool growing industry
warrants-a state wool growers a~ssocia-
ton, the organization of which marks
another step in the advance of
another North Dakota industry. It was
a representative gathering, yesterdays
convention. Those present look to the
wool business for a livelihood, and hence
their interest and enthusiasm are un-
doubted. The harmony which prevailed
in convention will doubtless character
ize the association in it's future workings.
It is a good thing for wool growers and
for the state. May it continue to -four
ish and may it's prosperity increase.

and south, it is much milder. From the
latter section there is a fair aggregate for
goods, though it comes in a thin, con.
tinuous stream, rather than in active
bounds, and therefore makes little show
Taking the trade of January as a whole,
however, it shows a fair improvement,
both in one and volume, on that of the
previous six months. The manufacture
ers are waiting for final action on the
tariff. From such Indications as the
senate affords, 1t seems likely that no
serious obstruction will arise to the pas
sage Of the bill in a modified form, and a
month or six weeks may possibly find
it on the statute book. Before that
finality, however, the duties on a wide
range of articles will be regarded as so
far certain as to admit of giving orders
for them, and in that way a steady in
crease of business may be expected.

party creeds, what promised the greatest
benefit to the industry in which they are

by them prove that when the matter is
brought straight home to them and to
their business interests, they believe
that protection ls beneficial, and that
it protects, and that without it the wool
industry is doomed to utter demoraliza-

1t will be seen, from this table that
the price of wool has varied, inversely,
as democratic success. When, in Nov
ember, 1890, democracy, and it's policy
Of free wool, we're successful at the polls
wool began to go down. Manufacturers
looked for radical legislation, and pur-
chases were by 10 means heavy. After
the converting of the first congress after
that election, when it was seer that the
democrats could accomplish nothing un-
til the presidential election, the price of
wool steadied somewhat, and held at
about % cents. The election of 1892 fol-
lowed, and the overwhelming victory of
the democrats. But the records of man.
ufacturers show that their orders and
business we're exceptionally heavy that
winter, after the general prosperity of
1892, and the demand for wool was
good, until in the next spring, when
these orders were filed. Again did the
promise of democratic free wool legisla-.
ton stagnate the wool market. Begin
ming with April, wool dropped steadily.
The republican victories of November,
'93, and the consequent hope of buyers
that democracy would learn from it that
the people were not so ardent for free
wool and free trade, had it's effect on the
price, and Immediately after this election
the price of wool scored it's only rice
since the preceding April. But the Will
son bill proved that democracy would
not take heed, and again the price of
wool dropped, this time to 1888; the
lowest price in the period covered by
the report. The loss to farmers in value
of wool has been about S25,OOO,OOO.

some nation friendly to Japan should
