terests of the country may result from

being held here.
The occasion is the 2Sth annual
convention of the National Association
of Stove Manufacturers, and there are
represented about 600 firms who con-
troll 80 per cent of the business of fhe
country in that line.
These manufacturers after listening
10 proposition by John W. Baker, an
attorney of Philadelphia, representing
eastern and foreign capital, decided to
appoint a committee of seven leading
manufacturers to gather data from the
stove men as to the amount of capital
invested individually and in the aggre-
gate, the number of plants that could
be secured, etc.
This committee is authorized to con-
fer with Mr.. Baker and his associates,
TO agree upon a joint proposition,
when option blanks and papers will

Chicago; w. S. Stevenson, Philadel-
phia; Robert P. Schick, Reading; E.
NJ. Anthony, Boston; III. w. Buttorff,
Nashville, and Frank Karnan, Utica.
This action was taken at conference
which followed the regular meeting of
the association. Mr.. Baker appeared
not only as a promoter, but as the rep
resentatiye of capitalists who were
abundantly able to finance the proposed
consolidation of the stove manufac-
tories Of the country if the proprietors
so desire 1t was aseertained that of
fifteen hundred large stove foundrie3
in this country, only four of them are
west of the Mississippi river.

The Importance Of some cultivated
adjunct to the native grass Of the west
ern part of the state for the sustenance
OF the increasing bands Of cattle with
which the ranges are being stocked is
called to the attention of the people by
Richard Sykes, the land holder and
capitalist of Manchester, England, who
owns forty or fifty thousand acres of
land in the western part Of the state.
Mr.. Sykes, in order to encourage the
growth Of Austrian bronze grass, a
substantial and hardy fodder grass,
will offer prizes for the best result OBJ
| tanned from the cultivation of this
grass. In the course Of a few years
the natural grass in the state will not
be sufficient to provide for the needs
OF the bands of stock and there must
be a supplement Of cultivated fodder
1t is believed the Austrian bronze will
fully supply this need.

The esteemed Grand Forks Plain
dealer announces to the world that it
is prepared successfully to defend the
democratic party and its principles
against attacks from whatever source.
We are indoubt whether to give way to
our feelings Of awe at the giant self
confidence of the Plaindealer or to our
profound admiration of it's modesty.
" hat the democratic party needs more
than any other single consideration,
with the possible exception Of votes,
is Il good defender. 1t needs defend
ing more than anything outside of Jail
that we happen to think Of at the pres
ent time. The Plaindealer says ':the
democratic policy 'is so clear and so
uniformly in accord with the prin-
ciples of the declaration Of independ-
ence' that it's defense is an easy task.
This is surely one of the superbest
flights of Imagination since the time
Of the late Ananias. And with this
statement in view we are prepared to
believe that the Plaindealer is pre-
pared prominently for eve so gigan-
tic a task as the successful defense OF
the democratic party.

We learn from the veraclous and al
ways up-to-date press that the ro-
nance which resulted in the wedding
Of Senator Thurston recently began
thirty years ago when the senator
addressed a charming set Of verses to
the young lady who has just become
his bride and who is now just twenty
five years Of age. Although she was
apparently at quite a tender youth
when the verses were addressed to her,
they seemed to have had the required
effect.

We pause to observe that this is re-
markable weather. Down where the
mild Missouri river murmurs, there is
the musical and melodious tinkle of
the crystal waves as the placid waters
drift dreamily to the sea. Upon the
banks of the stream stand the regret
full trees, mournful that they have cast
aside their gay dresses of bright green,
and the tWitter of feathered sOngsters
upon their l~eafleSs branches serves not
to atone to them for the misplaced con
1lucnce Of which they have been vic
tins. There is Il vernal S~OftnesS and
sweetness in the Zephyrs that whisper
to the sere grass and the faded flowers,
as though to tempt them to put forth
new blossoms in this Indian summer
time, when the sky is clear as a flaw
less rem and the whole earth glitters
and s%parkles in the warmth and bril-
lance Of the midday sun. \ solitary
cloud floats like Il dcrelict sail upon Il
waveless ocean of heavenly blue, and
Autumn stands like a loving mother to
caress her child the earth with a soft
and soothing hand and to delight its
eyes with the perfection Of her smile.
Delight trips with fairy footballs from
cloud to cloud, waiting back to earth
the sunshine of her smile, and Gladness
weaves Il garland of yellow leaves and
crowns each day with Autumnal
jewels Of a rarity and splendor uneX-
celled. Perfection fingers, a haZy
figure in the limpid blue Of the skies,
and from earth and air and sea and
sky there is Il sweet melody that floats
upon the breeze, as though a thousand
l-rOated bird were pouring Il glad
carol forth to the Indian summertide
and all the wealth of joy in the glaC
earth We're strung upon Il golden harI
and angel hands were striking it:
strings in sweet attune. We nigh
mention Il few other features of TIN
Autumnal season OIL the Missouri slop'
this year but space forbids that W.
should particulariZe further. Anu w
feel that already we have conveyed a.
intelligent idea Of the delights Of tn
season.

Certainly we will all regret to learn
OF the suicide Of blll Anthony, the
marine on the b%attleship Maine, who
at the time the gallant ship was in the
throes, reported coolly to the captain
Of the ship that 1.-The vessel is blown
up and is sinking" 1t is to be re-
GREETED that some trouble of which the
world was not aware led him to take
his own life, and for the mans hero
ism we will forget the manner Of his
death and remember only the gal
lantry of brave Bill Anthony"

one-half Of the country an opportunity
to rush into print, the expression Of
confidence gives the same inestimable
and gratifying privilege to the other
half. Thus every body is afforded an
opportunity to get into print-which
is we'll indeed. When we come to
reduce ourselves to our lowest terms,
to employ Il mathematical smile, we
find that after all we are a very child
is.l sort Of people. We blow hot and
cold with nearly the same breath. To-
day we laud the hero to the skies and
tomorrow we heap ashes and stale veg
etables on his head. We are too emo
tional, too hysterical, too easily car
| ried away by all excess OF enthusiasm
II we were colder, more calculating
and inclined more to analyze the hero
isms that call for our cXuberant demon
| STATIONS, our %adulation, while it would
be no less honorable to its recipient,
would Dartake less of the nature Of
what some of our irreverent cynics
designate '.hogwash." This is by no
means Il polite or admirable express
| sion but it covers the case in many
instances. We attribute to our heroes
a grandeur an. greatness which ap-
prOaches very closely the divine, and
then when we discover that u ideals
are human, we 20 off in Il corner and
weep at our disillusionment. The AM
erican people need to cultivate a ma
tiOnal dignity which is not carried to
the skies by the prOwess Of our arms
or cast down into the depths because
our military Or naval heroes are dis
covered to be human beings, with
human passions and human weak
neSSeS.

house to his wife, let us look at the
matter sobcrly and see whether we
cannot find it in our large hearts to
forgive the admiral, because Of his
distinguished services to his country
if for no other reason. Admiral
Dewey is a practical man, and it is
very probable that when he made up
his mind to deed the house to his wife,
he did it out of love for her and his
desire to prove his regard. Rather
was his action a great tribute to the
estimation in which he held his wife
than an affront to the American peo-
pie who gave him the house. There
is no doubt but Mrs. Dewey will allow
him to continue to live in the house
and under her ownership the windows
would probably have been kept as
clean and the back yard as clear of tin
cans as under the possession Of the
admiral. Let us not take the adj
miraIs private affairs too much to our
hearts. No N believes that Admiral
Dewey intended to convert the house
into a refuge for old maids, a summer
garden for vaudeville performances
or Il brewery. The American people
are too generous. too sympathetic. too
whole hearted to change in a moment
from adulation and praise to criticism
and severity of reprehension. This
little storm is only a passing cloud
from which the admiral will emerge
as greatly loved and admired by the
people as ever. and they will forget
everything but his heroic entrance into
the dangers Of Manila bay in the night.
his valiant attack Of a stranger fleet
in a stranger harbor. and the glorious
victory which made American arms
and American bravery honored and
glorious throughout the whole world.

The trust octopus has not yet en-
tered the state of North Dakota but
whenever it shall come the state is
prepared for it. Indeed. in legislating
against trusts. North Dakota appears
to have been in advance Of the pro-
c%ession, for there was Il stringent anti
rust law passed by the legislature Of
the state three years ago, although it
is doubtful if many residents Of the
state are aware that such a law is on
the statute books since there has eve
been occasion to Apply its provisions.
The Dill which comprised the present
antitrust law was introduced by Rep
resentative Howard Of Trail county
sentatives with but two votes against
it. The law provides. first, that all
trusts, arrangements or combinations
of capital for the purpose of con-
trolling output Of any product or the
price are. unlawful. Secondly, it de-
clares that any foreign corporation or
ganized or operated for such a pur-
pose is denied the right to do business
in this state and that any charter or
privilege granted it is forfeited. Vio-
lations Of the law are punishable by
fines from 300 to $4,000 and by i'm
prisonment from one to ten years. The
republican party is we'll fortified fol
the antitrust issue in North Dakota
since it enacted the law in question
which cannot fail to satisfy the m0s'
rabid antitrust advocate.

at the end of the next campaign be

since the war began, to say nothing
