MEMORIAL DAY.

General John Murray was the
originator of Memorial Day in the
north. While visiting in the
south in the winter of 1868, he
noticed the touching rite of decor
ating soldiers graves with flowers
by ladies. Being very much i'm
pressed with this custom, he in
stituted similar one at his own
home.
On the 5th day of May, 1868,
Gen. John A. Logan, who was
then commander-in-chief Of the
grand army of the republic. estab.
lihed Decoration Day, and by 8
general order, May 80, 1868, was
designated as a day set apart fol

Two supreme court decisions
handed down in the last few days
by the states Of North Dakota and
Iowa give directly opposite rulings
on the extent Of the authority con-
tanned in the prohibition law of
the respective states. Further than
that it clearly demonstrates that it
depends entirely on which Of the
above states you live in whether
you have to pay for the beer that
you buy. The substance of the
decisions is briefly summed up as
follows: II you live in Fargo,
North Dakota, and order your
beer from Moorhead, Minnesota,
dealer by telephone, and he de-
livers it, you need not pay for it,
because the sale is made in North
Dakota, where it is illegal to sell
beer. On the other hand, if you
live in Iowa, and order your beer
from a Milwaukee house, delivered
free on board the train at Milwau.
kee, the sale is made in Wiscon.
sin, where there is no prohibition,
and you must pay for the beer,
In the first mentioned case the
court held that the title passed in
Fargo, where the liquor was de.
livered; that it was contrary to the
laws Of the state, and the sale be.
ing uncomfortable over there,
an action to enforce the payment
could not be made IN this state.
In the Iowa case the court held
that the transaction was in Wis.
consin and presumed that the
party making the sale had know.
ledge that the liquor bought was
for the purpose of being illegally
sold in Iowa and accordingly as
sisted the buyer in carrying out
this illegal purpose; that the sale
in Wisconsin did not support an
action for the purchase price OF
the property. In both instances
the decisions of the trial courts
are reversed.

The Russian thistle which, a
few years ago, was esteemed a par
ticularly harmful weed, and on
both sides of the international
boundary was contended against
at great cost of labor and money,
is now coming into form in the
western states as a superior favor
plant and is also in vogue for fuel
purposes. Whether it can be class
ed as desirable vegetable pro-
duct may yet be questioned, but it
certainly has not proved to pc the
calamitous importation that it was
formerly represented to be. An
other weed that has caused great
deal of needless uneasiness is the
French weed or "stink weed"
This is plant that does rot ap-
pear to have any merit whatever
in agricultural economy, but on
the other hand, it's nervousness is
doubtful. The weed has been IA
miliar in this district from the
time of earliest settlement, and
has spread greatly. but when fields
covered with it will yet produce
thirty or forty bushels Of wheat to
the acre, its hurtfulness is not
readily apparent.
