Van" ofthe Journal Gives His
Ideas on the Matter.

Minneapolis, Mimi, June PA
Washington dispatch to the journal
saps: If the new tariff law contains
substantially the provisions that were
in the bill when it passed the house
three men representing northwestern
states on the ways and means commit
tee are believed to stand a good
chance of being promoted from the
house to the senate. The gentlemen
referred to are Tawncy, of Minnesota,
Johnson, of North Dakota, and
Deliver, of Iowa. A great deal of
credit belongs to them for having the
northwest taken care of. 1t was al.
most entirely due to Tawney's efforts
that the rates in the lumber schedule
were made satisfactory to the lumber
men. He also had great deal to do
with arranging the agricultural and
other schedules of benefit to this sec
tion and in this work was ably sec
onded by johnson and Doliver. Ii

three young northwestern men have
futures before them. It goes without
saying that if the next North Dakota
legislature is republican, M. N. John
son will succeed W. N. Roach as
United States senator. It is not prob
able that Tawney will come to the
front as candidate for senator against
Cushman X. Davis. Shrewd politi-
clans now credit that Davis will be his
own successor. There will be an op-
portunity. however, for Tawney to
forge to the front when the term OF
Knute Nelson expires. A good many
people who are watching the political
situation in Minnesota are of the opin.
ion that Tawney may he the principal
competitor of Nelson.
In Iowa Doliver has been coming to
the front for many years. and since
becoming member eff the ways and
means committee has added greatly tc
his record. If he desires, as he doubt
less does, there are many who thinl
he can be the successor to John H
Gear, in the United States' senate
when the latter's term expires.

SOD SHACK DISAPPEARING

The Park River Gazette has an
interesting account of the disap-
pearance of the sod shack in
North Dakota, and the substitu-
tion of neat and comfortable farm
houses, says the jamestown
Alert. When settler by hard
work and economy escapes from
a half dozen years of life in a sod
shack, he feels like a king in com
parison. The cheap land and
fertile soil of this state ought to
make the sod shack a matter of
but a year or two, instead of half
a dozen or more, and would do
so if but a good price for the
products of the soil could bc OBJ
tanned at the time when the crops
are mostly sold. The Gazette
says of the sod shack, for one
part of the state applies to all:
Nothing more clearly shows the pro-
gress that has been made by settlers
during the twelve to fifteen years of
their residence than the little original
dwellings, still standing in contrastwith
the spacious and comfortable homes
they now possess. On one farm there
may be q sod shack, now perhaps
held together for chicken house, or
allowed to drop altogether into ruin.
On another a log hut: substantial and
warm, utilized as a stable. On an
other may be board shanty, of
whose aristocratic qualities the owner
was very proud when he had it finished
for his first home, now used for q
stable. Many of them are sheltered
and adorned BY groves of trees that
help materially to mitigate the rigors
of winter on the open prairie, and
gardening can be regarded altogether
as a lost art even in busy, hustling
North Dakota. But here and there
upon the prairie is lonely looking
quarter section, with small area
plowed and growing only weeds. The
little dwelling of sod or log or lumber,
deserted and fast going to decay, tells
the story Of encouragement and ill-

Percy Trubshaw, Of the Coop
erstown .sCourier" has our sym
pathy. He has been appointed
postmaster of Cooperstown and
is being congratulated by his
friends from far and near. He
is rejoicing likewise and feels as
though the sun of prosperity was
about to shine upon him. 1t is.
true he will receive more of the
muchly coveted stuff called
money and will be looked upon
by many as a distinguished per-
sonage. But, ye Gods! he little
knows the trials and vicissitudes
of a postmaster; the annoyances,
the vexations, the Interruptions
and the numerous demands upon
him as public servant. And
this is not all, Percy, my boy,
these good people who call for
their mail forty times a day
whether there be a train in or
not, are not gifted with the same
kind Of appetiles. One may have
canary bird for dinner but the
next will greet you with whit
of onions that will tnke away
your breath. Another may
smell like a drug clerk all per-
fume and sen sen but before you
get away you discover scent
that reminds you of those nause-
ating nosegays that greeted you
from the steerage as you came to
this country from old Hingland.
The next that meet you may per-
meate the atmosphere with musk
or new mown hay and then as an
Offset there will come in a crowd
of buffers that will leave you in a
semi-state of intoxication from
the old Bourbon stencil that fills
the room. You have all this and
more too to contend with say
nothing of the four thousand
school children that may come
for the mail every time they pass
the office and the bother of wait
ing on regular visitors who never
were known to receive any mail.
We merely mention these few
annoyances so that you may take
due notice and govern yourself
accordingly. Peoples Advocate.
