doctors themselves prescribe it for his

came to understand that, putting
aside the point Of principle, it was
virtually impossible to enforce a total
abstinence law in a large community
or in a state. Look at Maine as an
instance and you will see, how true it
is. The attempt to enforce such a

The Record hopes and, believes that
the day will not come for a long time
when it will be impossible for the
tired wayfarer from an outlying
county to get something of a foamy
nature to wash the dust from his
throat after a long and lonely trip
to the Capital City. But it does seem
that the people Of Bismarck, by a
large majority, have come to the con-
clusion that the time has passed when
the roulette wheel and the faro lay
out will be SO unblushingly Haunted
in the face Of strangers, when men
will stand at the polls with fist full
of money bidding for voters, and when
hoboes are taken around the city and
repeatedly voted.

According to rail-
road men the ranching districts of
North Dakota will this year be the
objective point for large number Of
settlers who propose to enter the
business. Officials Of the roads lead
ing inte the district have already re-
ceived many inquiries ON the subject
Of rates, ETC., and the indications are
that the horse-raisiEg industry will
boom this year. Large shipments of
branded range horses will be sent
east-as many, in fact, as were shipped
last year, which was the best on rec
ord. One reason for the eagerness of
SO many people to go into the ranch
ing business is that recent events have
conspired to raise prices to a point
hitherto unprecedented. The Spanish
American, the South African and the
Philippine wars have absorbed nearly
every animal worthy Of the name Of
''horse," and now there is a scarcity in
the supply for merely domestic use.
Montana will also share the boom
which will visit North Dakota, and in
May one Of the biggest horse-sales on
record will take place at Forsyth, on
the Northern Pacific. At the Fletcher
ranch 7,00Oef the finest grade range
horses will be sold at auction. All the
animals will be Of the highest quality,
and not one will be sold unless u GER
tain reserve. price is exceeded.

THE Fargo Forums Octopus" is
much worried over the use of what it
terms a "stretcher" by the warden of
the penitentiary. Then there are
other people who claim that the major
uses stretcher in his editorials and
in his Bismarck correspondence. But
the penitentiary implement, whatever
it may be, should be done away with.
II a convict won't work, or ii he rises
up in his wrath and wishes to run
things, persuatiye measures should be
tried. If tile warden would keep a
stock Of candy and other "bong- -bongs',,
on hand to be used as reward Of
merit, perhaps he could persuade
the heretofore incorrigible folks in
his Institution to observe the rules.

An Iowa exchange unburdened it,
self as follows:
The doctor from .AlgOna said that
newspapers are..run for revenue only.
What in thunder do doctors run for,
any way? Do they run for glory?
One good, healthy doctor-bill would
run this office six months. An editor
works a day for three dollars, with an
Investment Of so, 900. A doctor looks
wise and works ten minutes for two
dollars, with an Investment Of three
cents for catnip and. a pill-bcx that
cost $l.37. A doctor goes to college
two or three years, gets a diploma and
a string Of words the devil himself
can't pronounce; cultiyates look Of
gravity that he palms of for wisdom;
gets box Of pills, a cayuse and a
meat-saw and sticks out his shingle
as a full-tiedged doctor. He will then
doctor you until you die, at stipu-
lated price per visit, and puts in the
visits as thick as your pocket will per-
init. An editor never gets his educa-
tion finished; he learns as long as he
lives, and as5Hdies all his life. lie eats

hay and turnips, and keeps the doctor

|. A short time ago made trip to
Grand River School, on the Standing
Rock agency, and few words as to
how Uncle Sam cares for his wards
may be of interest to your readers.
The school is nicely located on Grand
river, about thirty-five miles from
Fort Yates. The school is non- sec
tartan, and about l2O pupils are en-
rolled and quartcrcd there. On my
arrival 1 was met and cordially re-
ceived by Mr.. H. NJ. Noble, the super
intendent. Mr.. Noble is very pleas
ant gentleman, and seems to have all
matters we'll under control. He has
held his present positition about four
years. l met Mr.. Henry Obershaw,
who is industrial teacher, a former
Emmons-county boy, and an old-time
acquaintance. He took me in charge
and showed me the various depart
ments. Miss Spurgeon, the matron,
has general charge Of all the children
and direct charge Of the girls. Miss
Malaby is assistant rlatron, and has
charge of the boys. A part of their
duties is to keep theI house neat and
clean. The girls dormitories are on
the second floor and the ooys' on the
third. Miss Malaby is a recent arrival
at the school, Miss Spooner having
been temporary assistant. In the
kitchen Miss Grimes is in charge of
several Indian girls who were busily
engaged in washing dishes and sett.
ing tables. The cooking for this inl.
mense family is done on large range.
From six in the 'alorning until half
half-past six in the evening Miss
Grimes is busy looking after tho wei.
fare Of her numerous family.
Miss Bruins, the laundress, occupies
part of the basement, which is we'll
fitted with boilers, washing-machines,
and other necessary articles with
which to do the washing and ironing
for so many persons.
We find Miss Taggart, the seams
tress, busilY engaged in teaching a
class of Indian girls how to sew. She
has at hand scwing-machincs and al
other necessaries, SO that she is able
| to do good work.
During the short evening session o.
school I visited the different depart
ments for u few minutes. Miss Laugh
lin, the principal, seems we'll satisfied
with the progress the pupils are max
ing. During our visit she was teach
ing music. There are some fin.
voices among the boys and girls. Mr.
Dankwart, who was teaching tht
lower room, was giving lessons il
drawing, and he is master Of thu
art. Altogcthcr,' l spent very pleas
ant evening.
Mr.. Green, the carpenter, gives In
struction in carpentering and cabinet
making, as well as other kinds o1
work.
The employees mess in the basement
and meal-time is the jolly time Of TIN
day. Miss Leonard, OF TVS county
