Evangelist Rust has been holding
some lively meetings in the Baptist
church this week, and has had large
audiences. The gentleman has taken
time during his discourses to criticize
those who dance and intimates that the
boys only 60 to the dance to hug the
ladies. Mr. Rust is a we'll meanihg q
young man and probably sincere in his
remarks. at the same time we are of
the opinion that this hugging business
is something that exist more in his mind
than 1t does IN the minds of those who
attend dances. If dancing is the only
SO called sin committed in this world
by those who dance their chance for
salvation is good.

The vote on letting the courthouse
at $40 per night seems to be 2 to 1
against SO far as the returns have come
in. The unorganized towns have had
10 chance to vote and the vote of
Cooperstown will offset the vote of the
organized towns. There. has only about
one.third of the vote of the county
been.:cast and just how the commission
ers are going to get :at the wishes of
the people in this matter is a mystery
to us. The board was elected by the
people TO attend to all matters of this
character and if the board sees fit to
shut down on the courthouse let them
do it, if not let them rent it at $40 per
night, which in our opinion is u fair
and proper compensation. Just why
a few people in the country want to
shut the town out of using the court
house, when every entertainment given
therein is. open;to all in the county, is
something we can't understand. It
looks too much like the dog in the
manger who wouldn't eat the hay him.
self and refused to let the stock eat it.
The county board is an intelligent body
OF men and we think they can settle
this little matter between themselves
in justice to majority of the taxpayers.

The problem Of railroad taxation
IN this state was speedily settled in
the legislature yesterday when the
house, by the decisive vote Of 46 to
IS refused to pass the new gross ear
nings law. The senate las refused
to repeal chapter 135, providing for
the taxation Of railroads, and here
after all railroads will be assessed as
other property. The wisdom of this
action on the part of the legislator e
may be questioned just now by few
jealous advocates of the gross earn
ings system, but it is believed that
experience will demonstrate the fact
that in this decision the legislature
has acted wisely, and has in no man
xner been unfair to corporate intere sts.
There exists in this state no general
desire whatever to cinch railroads.
Fair and equitable taxation is all
that it is desired. Direct taxation
through state board of equaliza-
tion-the system under which the
Northern Pacific is and has been
paying since 1889-is in that line.
The constitutional provision against
the double system having been
raised, it remained for the legislator re
in adopting new code, to provid e
for one of two systems of railroad
taxation. 1t is believed that time
and experience will justify decision
in favor of direct taxation.-Bis-
mark Tribune.

The Hillsboro Herald says: "The
legislature that adjourns today sine
die, has done a lot of work. The
codes are adapted and are considered
the best codes of any state in the
union. In the political code are
certainly many "niggers," which the
next legislature can better pull ou,
then the present, because there are
two years to discover them. Many
other wise laws have been adopted.
The fourth legislative assembly will
60 down in history as the best and
most orderly yet held in this state
True, some good bills have been
killed on account of slick work done
by lobbyists; but taken as a whole
the assembly has done WE'LL"

The prediction made by the
Courier two years ago to the effect
that if the populists did not carry
the last elections a new party would
result. The prediction has come
true. A new silver party has been
formed, and ex Attorney General
Standish, ofpopulistic fame, has is
sued an address in which he states
that he has gone into the new par
ty and thata majority of the pop
ulists OF North Dakota will follow
his lead. Anything for office seem
to be the populist theory, and we
predict that it will only be short
time until the Griggs County popu-
list leaders-for Office only-wiil be
agitating the new idea and be trying
to fool the people into chasing after
more rainbows.

The legislature has adjourned, and
Notwithstanding the statement made
by some of the populist papers that
that party is the only friend of the
prohibition cause, the republican
house of representatives has stood
squarely on the prohibition plank o1
the state platform. The republican
party in this state is all right in this
respect and we believe in giving
credit where credit is due.

Our Ashtabula correspondent wants
to know where Griggs county's repre-.
sentatives were when the woman suf-
frage bill came up before the house.
Hon. r. c. Cooper was, and had been
for several days, sick in bed with the
grippe, while Hon. N. Swenson was
in his seat and voted for the measure.
Mr.. Swenson's vote was reported in
the house proceeding published in the
Bismarck Tribune. Griggs county's re.
presentvtives did not sneak into the
cloak room to dodge vote, but were
always in their seats and voted, unless
unable to do so by sickness.

EDITORIAL NOTES.
And Other Matters Of Interest
to the Readers of the
Courier.
RUSSIAN .THIsTLEs

10 ~ SSSSAfA4N - AAAS - Al841SSA
The Courier is in reeeipt Of let
ter from subscriber from Union in
which he wilhes to know if a party
can sell flax when he knows that it
contains Russian thistle seed. Our
informant says:
ga man on the south of this coun-
ty shipped in his seed last year and
raised Russian thistles. He sold the
product to Dorsey Elevator Co., and
they are selling it for seed to any one
who will buy. l know one who has
bought and if he has good crop of
thistles it will force us some time to
leave the country. l wish you would
say something about this in the
paper" 81.
The above facts are said to lie
true by the party informing the
Courier and it is too grave question
to pass unnoticed. In our opinion
anybody wiltully selling seed flax or
any other seed grain in which he
knows there are Russian thistle seed,
is guilty of a misdemeanor and can
be severely dealth with. The legis-
slature has made some provision for
dealing with this matter, but as We
have not seen the law recently passed
we cannot give its provisions at pre-
sent but will do so later. The best
thing to be done is for the citizens to
get together and protest against seed
of that kind being sold, and if this
protest is not needed to resort to law
Farmers should do all in their power
to stop the encroachment Of this ter
rible thistle on their farms. Firm
and quick action is needed in mat.
ter of this kind.

-
The appointment by Gov. McGraw of
two citizens OF Tacoma. Messrs. Holmes
and Fife. TO succeed ,Messrs. Huntington
and Uhlman as members of the Pierce
county board OF tide land appraisers will
tend 10 create a confidence IN that body
which was wanting in the old
Whether Justly or unjustiy. right or
wrong, the impression nevertheless pre-
vailed that Messrs- Huntington and UhI-
man were primarily politicians and that
In all things their acts as appraisers
were ATTAINED by their recognized posi-
tons as politicians
II has been asserted that Mr. Hunt
the third member OF the board, has been
entirely ignored in all matters apper-
tanning TO the duties OF the board. and
that the board, TO all intents and pur-
poses, was Huntington and Uhiman.
No one can assert with any show of
reason that either -. l.. Holmes or W.
IL. FIFE are in the remotest degree poll
ticians." On the other hand. they are
staid, successful. conservative men of
business in whose judgment the people
may rely.
Their appointment at this time. to-
gether with the election of men so the
city council I'm whom the people have
confidence. gives further assurance that
Justice will prevail In the eonsideTatio
of the tide land question. and that the
rights OF all persons. and of the people.
and OF the municipality. Will prevail and
that there Will be no invasion OF individ-
ual or corporate rights either by the peo-
pie or by the Three Companies"
The appointment OF these gentlemen.
at this time. adds 20 the feeling Of Sc
CURLY which every loyal citizen OF Ia
coma must feel as a result OF the recent
election.
