One week from next, Wednes-
day the republicans of North Da-
kota will assemble at Grand
Forks for the purpose Of placing
in nomination three presidential
electors and a full state ticket
from congressman down. The
spirit of the times and the un-
settled state of the country on
the financial question calls for
more than ordinary selections Of
men to fill the state offices. With
a fusion of the populists and
democrats the republicans must
of necessity place on their ticket
the best men that the party has.
The present state administration,
with the exception Of a few
blunders, has done exceedingly
well, and under it's guidance the
state is in a frst-class financial
condition. The republican party Of
this state can point with pride to
it's splendid businesslikead
tration. We admit that mistakes
have been made, and it would be
impossible for any administra-
ton to exist without mistakes,
but on the whole the ship Of state
has been well handled under the
present administration. Let the
Grand Forks convention see to it
that no one gets on the ticket
who will not be acceptable to the
masses.

The jamestown Daily Capital
has just entered on it's fourth
year and seems to be as full Of
vigor as ever. There is one
good thing that we notice about
the Capital and that is it's consist
ency. You can always bank on
it being on one side or the other
and no lodging. Long may your
old rag of freedom wave, boys.

The Populists discount tn

The Populists discount the
silverites by claiming that a
greenback dollar. which only
costs 1 cent, is just as good just
as honest money as the 55 cent
silver dollar or the 100 cent gold
dollar; and although they join the
silver miners in supplanting the
100 cent gold dollar with a 55 cent
silver dollar, it is only for the
purpose of a little later supplant-
ing the 55 cent silver dollar with
a 1 cent paper dollar. Now. if
the silver men are right on silver,
are not the populists right on
paper? But if irredeemable
paper money, made legal tender
for debt, is sound constitutional
money, why should the govern
ment ever tax the people for any
purpose whatever? Why not
issue legal tender paper money
to pay the current expenses of
the government instead of rails
ing funds by taxes? And why.
not go still farther and let the
government issue 81, 900, 900 for
every adult person in the United
States, and thus make every
citizen a millional.ie:
Is there not something radical
ly wrong in all these theories?
Should not the legal tenders for
debt be made of some metal that
contains a value that is an equi-
valent for the debt it pays?-Dr.
p. 2. Miller.

Four years ago the campaign

Four years ago the campaign
was made in a free trade VS.. pro-
lection basis and free trade won.
If the tariff was what allied the
country. at that time why is it
any different now? The none
tary system is the same. There
seems to be too much inconsist-
ency among our populist breth-
ren.

discussing what can be done through
the schools.
The story is told of a typographer
who, every time his companions went
out for glass OF beer, laid aside the
amount he would have spent had he
gone out with them. He continued
this for five years at the end of which
time he found that he had in this way,
saved $3.50. He had during tho five
years never been sick. Two of his
companions had become drunkards
and had been discharged from their
work. The temperance man invested
his $3.50 and ut the end OF another five
years was the owner of 100000.

Nine hundred years ago King Edgar

PAP AND JIM.

There is comforting calm in. the at
mosphere at Hepsidam. 1t is quiet and
free from the petty noises which rasp
fine nerves in cities.
The garbage man, the ash man. the
huckster and the dog catcher are un-
known at Hepsidam: and the people do
not gossip about their neighbors ex-
cept in friendly way. heard it said
that Mrs. Ashby wore poke bonnet at
church, and that it was becoming. but
nobody criticised even the preacher.
They seem to love each other up in the
mountains of Hepsidam I heard the
landlady of the little country boarding
house tell passing neighbor who was
driving to town that Mrs. Bliss. over on
the south ridge, had twins on Sunday
evening. and that the brindle COW was
giving more milk this season than she
gave last season.
Iguess from the subjects OF their con-
versation, and their willingness to be
quiet and let stranger rest, that the
people of Hepsidam are not given to
overexertion of the brain. After sun
down, when the crickets begin to chirp
and the frogs start their basso profundo
solos and choruses. it Seems as though
the world, the busy, wicked city world,
was far, far away; SO far uway that it
could never come back, we 20 back to
It, and we are glad of It. The cables
may be singing and whizzing their cars
along the heated streets iii the world
of cities, but there is no sound of that
sort of life in Hepsidam. None but the
sounds of nature fall upon the eur, and
only the singing of birds. accompanied
by the aeolian harps of the trees, come
waiting through the little ancient win
dow with the yellow glinting Of the ris-
ing sun. And when the cows come up
TO be fed and MIXED, and breakfast il
put on the table before six o'clock in
the morning, the sounds os the night
give way 10 the sounds Of the day, and
oil is peace in Hepsidam. S 5s
During the night THE listener may
hear from twilight until dawn the end
less controversy of whether Katy Cid
or Katy didn't. During the day time,
while lying in q hammock and WONDER,
ing why 80 many millions Of men arc 70
far removed from nature, the black
birds, woodpeckers and jays keep up
q continual controversy concerning rest
hiding and the best way to raisealit-
tie birds. They generally agree upon
q kindergarten system, leaving the
work Of supporting the little ones to
the female. Thus It goes along by day

London, Oct. Y.-George Du Maurier,
the artist-novelist, author of ''Trilby,"
died at 1880 o'clock Thursday morning.
His end was painless and he passed
away surrounded by friends. The ILL
ness of Mr.. Du Maurier was pathetic
in the extreme. For days he had been
lowering between life -and death, at
intervals conversing with his friends
regarding his work. Upon one occa-
sion u friend at the dying mans bed
side referred to the success of '"rrilby"
as book and as play, whereupon Du
Maurier replied: "Yes, it has been sue

GIANTS SURVIVED THE FLOOD.
Tradition Declares That Others Besides
Noah's Family Were Saved.

Tradition Declares That Others Besides
Noah's Family Were Saved.
Among the many queer stories re-
lated in the old Jewish Talmud is one,
concerning the action taken by the great
race of giants at the time Of the delugc.
According to Rabbi Eliezer, when the
flood broke upon the earth, the giants
exclaimed: eff all of the waters of the
earth be gathered together they will
only reach to our waists, and if the
fountains of the great deep be broken
up we will stamp them down again."
The same writer, who was one of the
compilers of the Talmud, says that they
actually tried to do this when the food
finally came. Eliezer says that Og, their
leader, 'planted his foot upon the
fountain of the deep and with his hands
closed the windows of Heaven" Then.
according to this same queer story,
God made the waters hot and boiled thu
flesh from the bones of the naughty
giants" The Targum of Palestine also
says that the waters of the flood were
hot, and that the skin of the rhinoceros
lays in folds because he was not allowed
to enter the ark, but saved himself by
hooking his horns under the sides Of tho
vessel and floating with it. But he wa
ter which was directly under and at the
sides Of the ark was not hottie
rhinoceros loosened his skin swimming
from mountain peak to the side Of the
vessel. One account says that Or and
another giant named Lami also saved
themselves by taking refuge in tn,
cool water under the edge Of the ark's
hull, along with the rhinoceros. One
rabbinac authority quoted by Could in
his "Patriarchs and Prophets says
that Og saved himself by climbing upon
the top Of the ark, and that when Noah
discovered and tried to dislodge him,
he swore to be a slave to Noah's family

In the Blue Ridge mountains, where
all sorts Of mineral springs abound,
there is a summer resort which Fred
Mussey called the mountain of Hepsi-
dam. Just about generation ago there
was q celebrated elocutionist who de-
livered humorous mock sermon about
the mountains of Hepsidam, and that
is the genesis of the name of this noun
tain resort. It is also called Comfort Re
Germ it on the map.
1t is not far from Harper's Ferry and
is about 1000 feet above the level Of the
sea. Hcpsidam is different from the
city in one important particular, and
that is that up in the mountains the
hens lay fresh eggs. Then, again, judg-
ing from the cream standing upon the
pans and jars, it is safe to say that the
cows give fresh milk up in the noun
tains, while all of our city COWS give
skinned milk, with chalk and water
In it.
Col. Perry Heath, who is managing
the newspaper work for the republican
national committee. used to be Wush-
ington correspondent, and he lived at a
prominent hotel. He spilled some of
the hotel cream on his black trousers
and was somewhat excited over the ac-
cident, when the colored waiter said:
'Nevah mind. Mistah Heat. Wait twel
de cream dries on yo' pants, an den I'll
jest bresh de chalk off, an de pants
won't show nothin'."
There is another difference between
Hepsidam and the city and that is that
the air in the mountains is different
from the air which, is cooked on the as.
phaltum streets of the city. It is easier:
to breathe it, and it is easier to keep
awake even on warm days, when breath
ing pure air. It gets warm but never
hot at Hcpsidam, and at night blankets
are required even in August, when the
sun works hard twice eight hoursa day,
and never complains of being tired.
