THE Democratic Congressional Com
mittee for this district met at Bismarck
last Friday. 1t was decided to nomi-
nate a candidate for Congress by pri-
mary election, to be held June z, 1902.
For the expenses of the primary, a fee
of $500 was assessed against each man
running for the nomination. All of
which is as un-Democratic as IL IA be,
and Is certain to result In ultimate
disaster to the party. 1t makes a very
"close corporation" of the organiza-
ton. into which zone may enter save
those that have plethoric pocket-books.
The Congressional Primary, as formu'
lated and governed by the rules
adopted by the committee, is as wrong
as wrong a be.

o YER genuine Democrat 10 the land

70 every genuine Democrat 10 the land
no man stood higher with the masses
than Henry Watterson. He was as
much beloved by the rank and file Of
the Democratic party of the middle
west ten years ago, as Mr.. Bryan is
now by the rank and file of that party
throughout the whole country. His po-
sition was an enviable one. 1t is a great
thing to possess the confidence of the
units OF a great organization. Mr..
Watterson was the idol OF his party at
the going down of the sur on one
eventful day in his history; at the
rising of the sun OF the next morning
the Henry Watterson OF the day before
had passed away. 1t was as if a strong
man, in the full vigor OF his manhood,
had been stricken with paralysis. In
that night he bowed his head to the
enemy be had fought so long and
vallantly, and received its yoke upon
his neck. The history of that night
has never been written, and probably
never will be-. Had he become en-
tangled in the meshes of a financial
net spread for himP or was he brought
face to face with the alternative of
surrender or being thrown from the
editorial chair Of the paper he had ex-
pended the best years of his life in
building up and making a power in
the landp No one knows. Between
the setting and rising Of the sun there
was q catastrophe-a tragedy-and
that is all that is known OF the matter.
He now uses up columns of his edi-
torial page in shouting for harmony,
when harmony cannot exist. From q
J fearless champion of the right, because
: it is right, he has become the champ.
ion Of the policy OF anything to win.
t He has abandoned his position as one
OF the leaders OF an army of patriots
to become a soldier of fortune; from
being an exponent of downright con.
victions he has become an o%pportunist'
No nan any longer believes in him.
! He probably does not believe in him
self. He processes to be opposed to the
4 trusts and in favor of tearing down oul
tariff walls; but If specific and drastic
legislation should be formulated agains
' the trusts and for the destruction O.
! the protective tariff, what would be
his positionp No one a tell certainly
be does not know himself. Does hi
favor the placing of restraints upor
the Federal Judiciary, so as to make
Federal Judges directly responsible tt
the people, whose servants they are
, Probably not. The platitudes he in
dulges in in his paper convince no one
although they are we'll written, for h'
10 a man OF brains, II not of intellectual
. probity. The dawn of the next da.
- may find his position reversed upol
the question of tariff and trusts, as thu
dawn of another day found his position
reversed upon silver. His position
before the American people is wha
Mr.. Bryan's would be if in the mex
issue of the Commoner he should de
n clare for trusts.

Henry Watterson.

Henry Watterson Is a picturesque
character in American politics. When
the whole country was apathetic In re-
gard to the evils OF monopoly, 1t was
his voice, more than that Of any other
one man. that reused the country TO a
realization Of those evils. His paper,
the Courier Journal, for years was
filed with the most scathing denun'
cistions Of the characterization Of silver.

The Post Dispatch says the cost OF
the war against the Fillipinos, to date,
10 greater than would be the sum
necessary to dig the Nicaragua canal
and build 800 warships. But the price
OF the iniquity is much greater than
that. 1t has cost thousands of lives
not TO be measured in dollars and
cents; it has given the lie to every
contention OF the Revolutionary Faith
ers, and has destroyed the usefulness
of this great Republic as a factor in
the advancement OF the world, 10 the
progress of humanity from darkness to
light, from wrong to right.

through the medium of the law courts

the gateway of a farmer was noticed
to be whitening away and dying. On
further investigation it was found
that deep hole had been bored in 1t,
probably by some person who wished
to kill it AS the tree somewhat in

bored by some superstitious person
who believed in the old superstition
that If illness attacks household it
can be driven away by 'burying" it in
a healthy tree. A hole is bored in
the tree and all kinds of medicines
are buried in the hole, which is then
carefully stopped up. amid the sing

oLrvEREsT ROGUE IN ENGLAND
Ma Capable of Making American SHARP
ers Look to Their LaureIs.

A person of distinct genius has Just
been sentenced to seven years penal
servitude in Liverpool His name is
Charles William Burrows. He be-
gan life as a druggists assistant.
Later he was a member of strolling
theatrical troupe. Then he exhibited
a fake bullet-proof coat. When this
was played out he bought the prac-
tice and residence Of a doctor, al
possession at the time. On the
strength Of the purchase, however, he
managed to borrow 1915 and the doc
tors horse and carriage. He then
formed syndicate to manufacture a
apparatus devised by him to generate
electricity in new way. For several
months he drew a big salary as
manager of the syndicate and borrow
ed money right and left. Incidentally
he married three different women. He
also managed to get himself appoint
ed as assistant house surgeon in
prominent hospital, and held the post
for several weeks before the authori-
ties discovered that he was not doc
tor at all. By that time he had made
hay In the form of more loans from
everybody in sight.
When he was arrested at last, be-
sides these charges there were the fol-
lowing against him: Larceny OF pos
tai orders, larceny of a horse and
wagon, larceny of silver flute, lar
ceny Of an electrical push button, lar
ceny of a watch and passing a bogus
check for $3.50.

that he will not succeed in stealing

he Created Three Distinct and Notable
Types of Fiction.
Few American romancers have writ
ten SO many books as James Fenimore
Cooper; none achieved, like him, the
honor of having created three distinct
and notable types of fiction. 1t is not
too much to say that Cooper's novel,
1.-THE Pilot" set the fashion for all
sea stories that followed it; his ''Leath-
restocking tales were the progenitors
of the hundreds of romantic tales of
life and adventure among the indiana,
and his Spy was the first great novel
with scenes and characters of the Rev
olutionary wal. 1t must be admitted,
also, that no other author of high re-
pute wrote books so widely different
In merit and interest; some Of his
stories are so weak as to be scarcely
known, by name, even to his heartiest
admirers, yet to-day. more than half
a century after his death, some of his
books are in steady demand at all the
libraries in the land, and several pub
fishers find profit in issuing new edi-
lions for individual purchasers. No
other American novelist's works have
been so heartily received in Europe as
were Cooper's or have been as highly
praised by foreign romancers of high
reputation Commentator as high as
was layisasS upon some of Cooper's
stories by Sir Walter Scott. Miss Edge
worth, Balzac and the elder Dumas
would astonish and delight the great
est American novelist to-day, who
ever he may be. Not only were his
languages of Europe, but at least one
of them, THE Spy" is still read in
Arabic and Persian.-John Habberton
