News of the death of Gilbert A. Pierce
will be received with sadness by friends
all through the state. The first terri
torial governor of Dakota after the
capitol was removed to Bismarck, he is
probably the best known of the terri
torialsexecutives to the later generation
in North Dakota. He was an able man,
polished, genial, scholarly, with much
political experience and ability. He
served..in many positions of distinction,
having been governor, senator. minister
to foreign country, and otherwise the
recipient Of honorable official recogni-
ton. In!his later days he has returned
to his literary work and at the time of
his death was engaged with the publ
cation of a successful magazine. There
will be many tributes to his memory
the tributes, of sincere regret, than
whichithere can be none greater.

The Grand Forks Herald truly de-
clares that there are few even among
those who have opposed Alex Mckenzie
whowill not feel a personal regret that
he is in trouble. And if any means can
be discovered to help him individuals in
North Dakota who will not join in so do
ing will be scarce indeed. The sentence is
severe and unusual and not deserved by
one no guilty of willful contempt OF
court. At all times acting under advice
of good attorneys he is not guilty OF
willfully defying the court.

Speaking Of the late William TTavers
leads me to remark that, so far as I
am personally aware, only one Of the
classic suffering stories about him is
actually true. I had the honor and
happiness to reside at Newport for a
year or SO once, and at the time Mr..
Travers was a summer resident there.
He certainly suffered a good deal, but
he did not go around habitually dis
charging staccato witticisms at the
world, as you might suppose he did
from all the stories you hear. But the
enc story that I know about is this
e
Travers was at a garden party one
afternoon when a young lady said to
him, ."What time is it, please, Mr..
Traverse"
Fravers took out his watch, wabbled
his mouth awhile, blinked and finally
said, it'll be s-s-s-s-six o'c-cAc-c-clock
by the time I can say it,"
1t really lacked five minutes Of 6
when he began.-Boston Transcript

Their Progress to Be Shown at the
Pan-American.
The progress Of American railways
will be most comprehensively Illus
trated at the Pan-American Exposi-
ton. The transportation exhibit will
be elaborate, embracing all the varied
branches. In this, as well as in several
other respects, the coming Exposition
will surpass the Columbian and Paris
Expositions. The display Of railroad
equipment will be the largest and most
interesting ever seen, ahording a rare
treat for railroad men and the public
generally. Progress is being made by
leaps and bounds. During the seven
years which have elapsed since the
Columbian Exposition many novel and
valuable inventions and improvements

The Sharpe apportionment bill prac-
tically as it came from the senate has
been agreed upon and will pass the
house, probably today. An attempt was
made to cut down the number of dis
tricts from 40 to 81 by leaving Barnes.
Cavalier and Trail counties each one
district respectively, as now constituted,
instead of two districts each. This
would be unfair and wrong. The in
crease in the size of the membership is
especially,and emphatically in the inter
est of good government. 1t removes, tc
a degree at least, the possibility of easy
combines; and the legislature hence
forth will be more particularly repre-
sentative of the people than heretofore

COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE.

taken up. -.>
Packard moved the amendment offered
by him earlier in the proceedings, which
amendments to the majority report were
adopted. Packard then moved the
adoption of the majority report.
Pollock moved as a substitute the min
ority report and said he supposed he
would be defeated, but he considered
this a gravely important measure, both
to the state and party. and the desires of
their-. should govern, and he
asked if this was the proper way to rush
matters on so important a matter, which
was not yet in point. The state had no
money to spare, yet were passing a meas,

BUFFALO AND THE BEES.

A Special Structure For the Honey,
Makers at the Pan-Atnerican. w.
The busy bee will be In big business
at the Pan-American Exposition the
coming summer. 1t has been decided
to construct a special building for the
proper display of the working colonies
of bees and the great variety of bee
keepers supplies which will constitute
this exhibit. This will undoubtedly be
the most extensive bee exhibit ever
prepared in this or any other part OF
the world. Any n who is not a stu
dent Of bee culture little realizes the
very great Importance of this industry.
1t is estimated that there are 100000
persons engaged in bee culture in the
United States alone and that the pres
ent annual value Of honey and wax is
in excess of $40, 0OO,0 600. There are ITO
societies devoted to the study and pro-
motion of Bookkeeping. Eight journals
are sustained by this industry. Eff
teen steam power factories are produc-
ing supplies of various kinds for the
use of be~ekeepers. American honey
finds a market in many distant coun-
tries, the United States producing more
honey than any other nation.
The bee exhibits at the Pan-Amer1-
the bees may enter their hives from
the exterior Of the building and carry
on their work Of honey collection un-
disturbed by visitors, yet In full view
through the glass sides of their hives.
The successful management Of an
apiary requires a knowledge Of botany
as well as the habits and requirements
of the bees themselves. The little
honey bee plays a very important part
in the general economy. The failure
of fruit crops may be due to the alb
n Of bees, whose special function is
to fertilize the blossoms by carrying
the pollen from stamens to pistil.
1t is estimated that the fora of the
United States could sustain ten times
as many bees as are now in existence
and nearly every farm could support
an apiary of profitable size. The bee
exhibit will illustrate the operation of
an apiary and will show the common
honey producing fora in a way to be
understood by all who may be interest.
ed. The relation Of bees to horticul.
ture and agriculture will be clearly
shown and the many uses of honey IL
lustrated. Honey Is extensively used
in the manufacture of bake stuffs and
in making medicines and candies. Bees.
wax Is a commercial article much used
by dentists and manufacturers Of wax
goods.
The actual demonstration Of beekeep.
ers' supplies Of latest pattern will show
what economies may be practiced by
b~eekeepers to increase their profits
The movable frame hive was invented
in 1851 by Langstroth, and since thai
time the application of labor saving
honey saving and bee saving device!
has been very interesting and impor
tant. Experiments In crossing varieties
of bees have been carried on with sur
prising success. New York, Pennsyl
vania, Vermont and other New Eng
land states are large producers Of coml
honey. Any locality in which whit
clover, Eastwood and buckwheat ar
plentiful Is adapted to the successful
culture Of the bees. In California ant
Arizona the keeping of bees ranks a
one Of the most important industries.

JAPANESE PROTEST.
Do Not Want to Be Excluded From
the United States.

New York, July 22.-Sone OF the Jap
anese living IN this city have been
alarmed BY the action recently taken
by the labor unions OF san Francisco,
which ask that the japanese be excIud-
ed as the Chinese are under the Geary
act The San Francisco labor unions
are said to be preparing q petition to
congress. The Japanese are consider
ing the wisdom Of organizing to fight
the plan and may start a counter petit
ton.
The attention OF Z. Ohd. who is in
charge of the japanese consulate, has
been called to the matter Referring TO
the San Francisco resolutions he said:
They want much these workingmens
that they win not get. Your congress
will not pass such a law. am sure Of
it.
Congress and senators who would
vote to keep the Chinese out of the
United States would decide against any
law that included Japanese. Our gov
eminent would surely resent such a
discrimination and would pass laws in
retaliation which would hurt the trade
of the United States in the east"
Japan does not want TO send labor
ers to the United States or any other
country" added another consulate off,
ciaI- They are needed at home to
build roads and bitches and battIeships
and to serve IN the army. 1t is hard
for one of the eoolie class to leave Japan
now. owing to laws which the govern
nent has passed TO keep them at home
These laws will be made even more
strict IN the near future,T believe. There
are not many japanese Iaborers in the
United States today Many of those
who are considered Iaborers are really
students who have to work their way
while learning to do things after the
American fashion They stay here a
few years and then go back home. In

nese.''
