prosperity of our little state will be dwarfed and all the helpful influences which come from good roads will be de- nied the people of our state. The obli- gation on the town, through which trunk road would pass, should be the one of keeping said road in proper re- pair. A road of this kind should be source of great convenience and profit to the whole state. would not, how ever, recommend any abandonment Of the general plan now in force of im- proving the main roads between the towns. I would still continue this same system, only on more liberal basis to- wards the towns. A great deal of valu- able time was lost through the summer months in getting done all the prelimi- nary work required by law. This shortened up the period for road mak- ing very much and was great loss to all the towns in which roads had to be constructed.

He communicated his suspi- cions to the captain, who cried out, Bout ship, keep off to sea- The Ca talpa's sails filled, and her bow was directed amidships of the Georgette.

A. NEEDED CHARITY.

{ New Haven, with its churches and many good charities, still is in want of a seaside sanitarium, to carry hundreds each day in the hot, murky days of sum- mer off for a rest, and boarding place for our hundreds of nice women clerks and workers to go and enjoy their sum- mer vacation, paying simply the cost of running the house and receiving good plain fare and motherly care.

 While King Theebaw is amusing him. self by throwing pebbles into the sea on the west coast of India, young Eng lish officers drink whiskey and soda and play cards in his throne-room at Man. dalay, which has been converted into a club. No Burmese soldiers with over heavy swords now stagger about the streets.

There are few hundred princesses about Man dalay, to whom the Indian government, in unbounded generosity for having taken their country, give each fifteen shillings week.

Minnesota rlonkey Work.

There is we'll founded suspicion
that North Dakota wheat does not
meet with fair play at Duluth and
Minneapolis under the present meth
DDS employed in inspecting, grading,
storing or shipping. It is believed,
as has been frequently stated, that
our wheat is mixed with the inferior
product of southern Minnesota, South
Dakota and Iowa by the speculators
at these points and sold to eastern
consumers after having been thus
reduced in grade. A plan by which
our wheat can be offered for sale on
all markets of the world and sold on
its merits, without mixing or adulter
alton is what should be evolved and
adopted. Milton Globe.

was expressed by a gentleman, in
which we heartily concur: "In the
name of morality it is my humble
opinion that they (the w. @. T. w.
have done more to demoralize this
state than they can make good in
twenty years of positive work. They
have thrust foul discussion into al
most every home in the state of North
Dakota; they have not hesitated to
put foul, suggestive literature in the
hands of Sunday school and common
school pupils. The thoughtlessness
of the methods adopted, to say the
least, is deplorable." ."-Lakota Herald.

Just The Kind of Stuff Needed.

Later returns from North Dakota
give the Republicans still greater ma
joritles for their state ticket and show
that the legislature is republican be-
yond a doubt. The victory for re-
publicanism will be complete when
this legislature chooses Hon. T. f..
Marshall for United States senator.
He is a republican in every fiber of
his nature and if he is elected will
support republican policies and
have their welfare in view rather than
personal aggrandizment. He would
make record in the senate that
would attract luster to his state and
is made of just the kind of timber
that body most needs just now to re-
store it to the position it used to hold
in the confidence of the people,

Endorsed in the Northwest.

The vote of the people of the north
west was in the nature of an indorse-
ment of the administration of Presi-
dent Mckinley, who was really on
trial. The result showed that the
brilliant conduct OF the war and the
improved business conditions of the
country are not overlooked by the
people. The world at large now
knows that the country sustains the
president, and approves his conduct
OF the war with Spain. A reversal of
the popular verdict would have been
something humiliating under the cir
cumstances. The result is gratifying.
Business ought to gain confidence
now that there is to be no interference
with the economic policies of the
country in the near future, and plans
may be made accordingly.-Edgeley

Good Advice for Dickev


The change in the vote in this
county from 200 fusion majority in
1896 to 500 republican majority is not
all change to republicanisu. We
claim about half of it as straight
change and the other half from me-,
who are still Independents and demo-
Gratis but who are not fusionists, and
this is true of other counties as we'll
as Pembina.
Fusion has disgusted many into
becoming permanently republican
but it will depend very much on the
future OF both parties as to where the
remainder of independent votere will
affiliate.
Here comes food for thought for
the members of the republican party.
Victory and majority are invariably
demoraiizing. With a sure majority.
factions arise within the party, or less
attention is paid to the character of
can 1idates. Might is right is often
the motto; and as we said, the results
are demoralizing. On the contrary a
minority party can only hope 70 win
by standing together and putting up
good candidates. From party
numbering but barely one-third of
the total vote in 1890 we have grown
to majority party by good manage
mont and hard fighting on our part
and partly by the mistakes and dis
organization of our opponents. The
tables are reversed and now comes
the question whether as victors we
can keep our organization in position
