The remuneration of politics by Chair
man Bastord of the republican state
committee and his return to the pulpit
will be a nine days wonder to many peo-
pie. But to anyone who knows how
self-stultifylng to a manly nature pre-
sent day politics is IN order to win, there
Is nothing strange about it. The first
thought that naturally arises to an non
est mind at meeting a politician who has
risen to any prominence Is, how much
fawniEg, dupIicity and stultitcation has
honors?" Such reflections to a patriotic
and manly nature are apt to make him
pretty thoroughly Disguised with poll
tics.

Elk Point Courier, %: IF. A. Burdick

Elk Point Courier, %: IF. A. Burdick,
according to the Aberdeen News, has
secured the appointment OF reservation
carpenter on the Sisseton reserve
through the efforts Of Senator Kyle
This cannot be our Burdick OF former
days, who has served as preacher, editor,
teacher, electrician, politician farmer
and now become a carpenter for the
Indians. No fate could be 80 rue
Such is the irony Of fate, my dear Cour-
Ter. When Elder Burdick left his Yank-
ton charge to seek the secretaryship OF
the constitutional convention OF 80, he
made a great mistake. 1t was about
that time also that o. S. Basford became
IA castaway from his preaching IN the
church and turned his attention to pol
itics. Then from his church work at
Aberdeen Burdick went to Pierre to
seek the secretaryship Of the first state
senate which he obtained to hold only a
short time. and from that day to this has
been drifting around from n thing to
another. Both Basford and Burdick
we're good preachers. The former now
politics as a past SIN and de-
sires to return to his preaching again.
Burdick ere long will do the same and
then the church will have two wiser and
better men, and when Senator Kyle's
present term expires, it will have a
third.

James Of Cincinnati on behalf Of Franz
Van Rect of Antwerp, n of the dia-
mond cutters refused q landing some
days ago, by DR.. Senner, the immigrant
commissioner at New York. Mr.. Van
Rect, it was reported, in addition to
being a wealthy citizen Of Antwerp, is
one of the finest diamond cutters in the
world. He came to this country to con-
fer with Mr.. Herman Keck of Cincin-
natl with IA view to establishing, in
connection with Mr.. Keck, a large 4dia-
mond cutting establishment in Cincin-
natl, or some other some other Ameri-
can city. He was not under contract
but came to the Unsted States as a cap
italist in the expectation of investing
his capital here. For the first few
days after his arrival he was treated a.
a common emigrant, but was finally
parolled and placed in the custody of

TOO GRAVE FOR GREAT HASTE
Premier Greenway States the
Government Case In the
LEGISLATURE.

TORONTO, March 3O.-The World nays
that it has good reasons for, believing
Sir Charles Upper will retain his port
folio as minister of justice. II this be
20. and The World is generally well in
formed politically. it shows that the
premier has succeeded in patching up a
truce for the present at least.
The Mail, the government organ,
gives strong denial to the whole resig-
nation story, 1t says: Charles Upper
is still administering the affairs Of his
department. He has not rendered his
resignation and the statements sent
broadcast over the world that he has,
are untrue.
This contradiction is given, not only
on the authority Of the minister Of JUS
tice, but with the emphatic confirma-
ton of Sir Mackenzie Bowel.

olscoURAGlNG TO FARMERS.

Rain Is Bodily Needed Throughout the
Northwest-Ncver So Dry.
MlNNEAPoLIs, March 80. Reports re-
ceived from the country by Minneapolis
grain and elevator men regarding the
crop condition indicate a somewhat Sc
rious condition of affairs. Last fall when
the ground froze it was III the driest
state ever known in the Northwest.
The snow fall during the winter wa
very light. Up to date very little rain
has fallen, yet farmers have been forced
by the open spring to go to work and
get in their crops. Wherever they are
at work they are e~nveloped in a cloud
Of dust. Such II situation has
never before been known in the
Northwest. The lack of moisture
in the soil at this time of the year is
without a parallel in the history of this
region. The drought is said to be es-
pecially severe in North and South Da-
kota. There is time yet, of course, for
the wheat crop to be saved by copious
rains, but they must come oon or the
situation will be one of great gravity.
