A Tale Calf.

Say! did you ever try to learn to feed
a youthful and unsophisticated calf
whose relations with its ma had been
recently and suddenly sundered? We
did, the other day. And, jewhizz!
it's fun, and gives you more exercise
IN ten minutes than you could get in
gymnasiumi in an hour. When you
climb into the pen with the warm
milk, the first thing the measly veal
does is To put it's front foot in your
pail. Then, after you've extracted
the foot, business is begun by the
little cuss taking Il chew at the taper.

Then you say ''Ouch!' and insertyour

pail by main force, whereupon it says
"Bl-l-l-l-l!" and blows gill Of milk
into your face, and you eject a word
that can easily be made to rhyme with
"lamb' and "ram." You now drop
strategy and attempt coercion. You

ends by calfy giving you billy-goat

time what portion Of the milk you
haven't spilled is cold, and you 60 to
the kitchen to warm it over. Then
you return to the pen and begin where

benign countenance, and ends your job

PROHIBITION in North Dakota was
the cause of the small number OF
saloons formerly in Moorhead, Just
across the Red River from Fargo,
being increased to between thirty and
forty, as the saloons there receive
the patronage Of the two cities. The
people of Moorhead thought the thing
was overdone, so the city authorities
recently increased the license to
sl,500 year. 1t is said by Moorehead
authorities that the number of saloons
will be cut down one-halt when the
law goes into effect. And isn't high
license much the better way of regu-
lating the liquor traffic? Under such
a law, instead of blind piggers and
boot-leggers springing up in nearly
every part Of the state as soon as their
predecessors are arrested, there would
be fewer saloons, and these carefully
conducted by mem of reliability,
who would know that their places
would be closed and their licenses
revoked whenever such places were not
carried on in an orderly manner; and
the county or city would receive
something from the sale. Assit is
now, while there is much expense
made in prosecutions, the public treas
ury receives nothing in return. We
have the utmost respect for the man
or woman who honestly believes that
the sale of intoxicants is an evil-none
whatever. for those who, claiming to
be prohibitionists,, drink whenever
any one volunteers a treat; but
we cannot understand how any lucid
person, with the object lesson In this
state before his eyes, can persuade
himself that the present system is
better than a plan under which the
saloon can be regulated. And isn't II
strange that the people Of North
Dakota will, year after year, elec,
members to the legislature who vote
to keep upon the statute-books 8
sumptuary provision that mas peer

other states and found wofully want

Great Country for sleek.

North Dakota is not the land of GOV.
otes and billiards that many of our
eastern friends imagine, says the Will
liston Herald, but is far from it. Upto
the present time this winter it has been
unnecessary to feed cattle at all in this
vicinity, and but very little hay has
been fed to sheep. H. ". Smith owns
some two or three thousand sheep, and
when in town last week he said he had
fed but one load of hay this winter, as
the weather had permitted them to
make their own living. For horses, cat
tie and sheep, no place is equal to
North Dakota.

OH! the Nasty MANI

Not long ago, relates the Kansas City
Journal, the wife of u western Kansas
politician asked him one day to lay
aside politics long enough to dig the
potatoes in the garden. He agreed to
do it. After digging for a few min
utes he went into the house and said
he had found coin. He washed it
of, and it proved to be silver quar-
ter. He put it in his jeans and went
back to work. Presently he went to
the house again and said he had found
another coin. He washed the dirt off Of
it. 1t was silver half-doIlar. He also
put 1t in his jeans. II have worked
pretty hard" said he to his wife; "I'll
take short nap." When he awoke
he found that his wife had dug all the
rest Of the potatoes. But she found
no coins. 1t then dawned upon her
that she had been "wurked."

Mandan Pioneer: In former issues
the Pioneer has called attention to
the similarity between the situation
in this part of the state on the liquor
question and the situation in New
York City. There, the people are
evadinx laws enacted by the cold-wa-

the state which are not applicable to
the condition in New York City. DR..
Lyman Abbott, formerly pastor Of
Beecher's church, and now editor Of
the Outlook, has done some excellent
phrasing on this subject, which is
worth quoting. He says that Claw
that we have ourselves enacted we
shall enforce" whereas a "law enact
ed over our heads we rightly resent" {"
Experience the world over demon
strates that in countries where repre-
sentative government exists, and
where local self.government ,fs the

hard to enforce laws in one locality
that only meet with the approval Of a
