The North Star Refrigerator. Good vs. Poor
 Refrigerators :.

The blame for @ poor re- frigerator in your home does not always rest on the dealer. Perhaps you insisted on a refrigerator at certain price -at which a really good re- frigerator couldn't be bought. Some dealers handle kinds made to meet the demands of the insistent w-priced buyer. We don't.
 We sell the North Star only, and will sell it, just as long as it continues to distance its competitors.
 There are no wrongs to be made right-when we sell you the North Star.

Bank Clearances.

II will be seen how business fell off
in 1893 and 1894 when we were threat
ened with free trade and began TO
live under the operation of the Will
son-Gorman law. We recovered but
little in the next two years, and 1897
found us doing less business than
1892. But note the result since, under
the workings of the Dingley tariff.
Observe the great increases each year,
till in 1901 we find the clearings more
than double what they were in 1895
or 1896. These are the records Of
actual business transactions, for bank
balances are computed to cent.
Savings and Surplus.
Our savings bank deposits repre-
sent a portion of the surplus earnings
of the masses. The capitalist, the
manufacturer, and the merchants do
not use the savings banks. 1t is the
wage-earner who uses that depository
for a part of his surplus funds, and
now, Mr.. President, | want to show
just what the amount of these savings
have been during the past ten years.

LAND OFFICE OPENED.
Surprise Manifested at the Manner
In Which Limits We're Fixed.

The Great Falls land Office was
opened on the morning of August lst
and the first paper fled was a con-
test for a desert land entry.
The contest is brought against the
desert land entry made July 2l. 1901,
by Mary A. Murphy upon the south
half of section "a. township 16, range
2 east, In the Hound creek country.
Contestant alleges that 1t is not des.
ert land and will produce good crops
of hay, that no improvements have
been made nor any attempt made to
irrigate ii and that false and fraudu.
lent affidavits were made at the time
of the entry.
Considerable surprise is being man.
ifested at the strange manner in
which the limits OF the Great Falls
land district were fixed, all the min
ing section of that county being left
out. In fact Valley is the only entire
county included. 1t has parts Of Lew
is and Clarke, Teton and Choteau.
The southwestern part of Choteau
county lying north of Sun river re-
mains in the Helena district, while
about three townships OF Lewis and
Clarke county in the vicinity Of Craig
come to this district Two townships
OF Cascade county south Of Adel
townships Is. east and / west, are
left out of this district, as also the
triangular southeastern part of Cas-
cade county, which embraces the dis
trict south OF Monarch. including tn,
Neihart, Barker. Geer and surround
ing mining and mountainous coun
try.
That part of the Square Butte coun
try in Choteau county lying north ol
the Arrow river and south and wes'
of the Missouri. about twenty town
ships, is not in this district. All I'll
ings for land in this part OF the coun
ty must be made at lewistown.

The Duty of the Individual.

Christ's saying about the widows
mite exemplifies that not the size or
result of the gift but the spirit of the
giver makes 1t acceptable to God.
This is the spiritual aspect of a prin-
ciple which in its general form holds
good of the dynamics of matter also,
namely. that the true test OF force is
tendency and direction and not visible
effect. Thus 1t is that, though one
man stand alone among a million,
right Is still right and he must fol-
low it. Take a concrete case: A
murder is about to be committed; an
onlooker could prevent ii by raising
his hand; he forbears to do so. What
ever the law may say, he is morally
as guilty of the murder as though he
himself had struck the blow. Increase
the onlookers to twenty; the respon-
sibility of the first Is not reduced,
though now 1t is equalled by that of
each of the others. Multiply again
by a million; the responsibility Of
each still remains uIidiminished. More
than that, were the murderers a mil
lion, the single onlooker would be
still responsible in so far as he had
not exerted himself to stop the crime
Fortunately there are no such odds
against us here; we can plead no
physical fear, no overwhelming force,
for our justification. The only hero
ism that the occasion calls for or ad.
mits of is that, for the sake of our

for three years our railroads have

Bank Clearances.

which are recorded in the clearing

years the average has been about
$500. 100000. making a total favorable
balance under the I've years of the
Dingley law of $4,000, 5000.
We are changing under this trade
balance from a debtor nation to a
creditor nation; II, indeed. we have
not already done so. We have an
immense freight bill to pay annually,
large interest disbursements. and ex.
changes on account of tourists ex.
penses abroad. so that with much less
than our favorable balance we would
have to ship gold abroad in large quan.
titles to pay our bill. as we have had
to do in low-tariff times. We are ex.
porting double the amount of manu-.
