sen ATOR HOAR'S SPEECH.

Senator Hoar, of Massachusetts, made
an admirable address in the Senate Mon
day against the policy of expansion and
imperialism. He characterized the pro-
posed departure from the principles of the
founders of the government as uuconsti
tutional and subversive, and bis argument
was comprehensive and convincing Nh
Hoar presents certain practical considera-
tions which will be readily understood by
those who mi Sht not appreciate his mas
terly argument on the constitutional oh
jcctions to expansion and the forcihle an
nexation of foreign territory.
The workingmen of this country will be
deeply interested in the statement of the
Massachusetts Senator that mo tropical
colony was ever yet successfully admins
tered without a system of contract labor
strictly enforced by the government" If,
therefore, the policy of expansion is
adopted, mot only will the workingm
wages be diminished but his dignity will
be dishonored and his manhood 'iScrow ned
by the act of his own government This
is a consideration which vitality Effects the

INTEREST IN THE FARMERS
INSTITUTE.

We are pleased to note the increas-
ing interest in the Farmers Institute,
as manifested by the attendance at the
sessions here yesterday. The State
has made quite liberal appropriation
for this work, and farmers should show
their appreciation. In this age of
progress and enlightenment, scientific
methods must be combined with the
practical, if success is desired. Many
valuable suggestions were made by the
lecturers yesterday, which we trust
may prove of profit to those who heard
them

Although pearls cannot yet be made
in the laboratory, they can be slowly
built up by natural process at the bot
tom of an aquarium. Signor Comba,
who has beer experimenting for sew
eral years in the artificial production
of this much-prized stone, is laying
down large quantity of pearl oysters
on the shores Of the Mediterranean,
with view to extended operations.
The objection has been raised that the
mother-of-pearl shell will not "live''
in temperature of less than 60 to 70
degrees Fahrenheit, and that the nor
NAL temperature of the Mediterranean
is too low to give any hope of the sue
cess of the enterprise. The same ex-
pertinent has been carried on in
Queensland and western Australia
with great success, but those countries
are at prohibitive distance from the
chief markets for mother-of-pearl,
which are London, Hamburg and
Trieste, the expense of conveying the
pearls thither being. too great. 1t is,
nevertheless, admitted that there are
great possibilities in the artificial pro-
duction of pearls, which, under skillful
MANAGEMENT, could be made a profit
able industry if carried on concur
rently with systematic pearl-shell Gull
.tivation.

TRAINING SCHOOL FUNDS.
Grand Forks Auditor and Supcrin-
tcndent Differ.

Grand Forks, n. D.--A slight differ
ence of opinion between County Audit
or Scott and County superintendent of
Schools Spoonhem regarding the inter
probation of the law relative to raising
! funds for the maintenance of teachers
, training schools and Institutes, has put
the superintendent in rather an EN-
| barrassing position at the close of the
training school recently held Lere. The
/ law states that 50 shall be taken from
| the general county fund for every
school in the county over which the
county superintendent has supervision
! and applied toward defraying the eX-
penscs incurred in holding the insti-
7! tute or training school. In figuring on
the amount of money at his disposal
| for the term recently closed Supt.
| Spoonheim had included the thirty
nine departments in the city schools in
the number over which he had gener-
al supervision. making total of 203
schools in the county. and, in accord
ance with this supposition, made a re-
QUESTION on Auditor Scott for S40G.
| Auditor Scott interpreted the law diff
ferently, his idea being that the coun-
ty superintendent had nothing to do
with the city schools, and, therefore,
had supervision over but 164 schools,
and was entitled to but 1928 from the
county to aid in the payment of the
training school teachers. County At
torney Bangs was appealed to, and
was disposed to agree with Auditor
Scott, but has not yet given an official
opinion pending thorough investiga-
| ton. In the meantime the teachers
Ell ployed, quite naturally, want their
pay. MI. Spoonheim says that if Mr..
SCOTS opinion is correct. large mum.
Der of the superintendent in this state
are drawing larger salaries than they
arc entitled to. rs all the counties in
which there are less than 10 schools.
each department of high school or
any school in an independent district
is counted as school in making esti-
mates.

To all readers who remember the

To all readers who remember the
earlier traditions of the leading Amer
lean magazines there is something very
suggestive in the announcement that
the price of one of the old-established
monthlies is to be'reduced from 50
cents to 25 cents copy. The change
of price, of course, follows a revolu-
ton in methods of publication. The
magazine of today, with its fine typog-
raphy, delicate engravings and excel
lent mechanical execution, can be pro-
duced with profit at lower cost than
the magazine of twenty-five years ago,
with it's rough paper and coarse wood
cuts. The universal cheapening in the
cost of production of all publications
has not been without its effect on pub
lie taste. Readers expect now for few
pennies more ingeniously varied ia
BILE of contents and finer style of ex-
ecution than they would have dreamed
it possible to get two decades ago for
35 or so cents.
