The Wrong Connection,

The telephone girl and the bill clerk.
to whom she had promised Der heart
and hand, were sitting in front OF the
fire place, talking about the happy days
to come when they should be one.
From one little detail to another. the
talk finally dr.Sted to the subject of
lighting the fires in the morning. On
this point the young man was decided.
He stated it as his emphatic opinion
that ii was a wife's duty TO get up and
start the fires, and let her poor. hard
worked husband rest.
After this decision there was a silence
for about thrsa-quarters of a second.
Then the telephone girl thrust out the
finger encircled by her engagement
ring and murmured. sweetly but firm
ly:
Ring of, please. You have got con-
nection with the wrong number New

David went indoors thoughtfully, with
a general feeling that something nike a
hand had grasped his brain and was
squeezing 1t like a sponge. He was
free from his carking anxiety now. but
1t seemed to him that he was paying a
heavy price for his liberty. Mechanic
ally he counted out the hank notes. and
almost as mechanically he cut his ini-
tails on the gun metal inside the cigar
case. He was one OF the kind OF men
who like to have their initials every

Southerner, and is noted among the
many who have had the pleasure of

THE Republicans of this county
should never allow factional differ
ences to divide them tosuch an extent
as to to send a fractional delegation
to astate convention. Men should be
chosen as delegates who will attend in
person. At the recent state conyen-
tion in Fargo, Emmons county had
only Ave Of her ten delegates present.
Nearly every county was represented
by a full delegation. AS there was no
difference between the two Republi-
can factions in this county as TO the
state ticket, it wouldn't have done
any harm to have sentsome gentlemen
Of the minority who. wereyswilling to
attend.

requested one of their number to offer
it. Although the resolution was de-
feated by referring it to the committee
on resolutions, the debate and applause
showed a strong feeling among the
delegates in favor of the people of this
state being allowed to again express
themselves at the polls on the prohi-
bition experiment. 1t was not the
time and place to discuss the moral
ethics of the sumptuary law, and all
the resubmissionists asked was that,
after a trial Of a dozen years. the mat
ter be trusted to the will OF the voters.
All talk of Republican resubmis-
sionists cutting the state ticket be-
cause of the defeat Of resubmission is
nonsensical in the extreme. That
would do no good. The state officers
must administer the laws as they find
them. The only power to change the
statute lies in the legislature, and il
is in the legislative districts that the
fight must take place. AS the prinei-
r L
pal representative gathering of the
Republicans OF. the state, it was per-
fectly in order for the convention to
express an opinion on any subject of
public interest; but that was all.
The editor of this paper believes
that prohibition will some day be
'overthrown in this state, just as it
was overthrown in South Dakota,
where the majority for it Was much
larger than in the neutrality-suspicious.

And every man who believes in re-

in bringing the matter to the fore.

period of experiment alton, the voters
of the state should be allowed to say
whether they desire a change, or

but under the present system Of maxi

last week recognized the large number
of German-R Russian citizens of this
state by placing on the ticket for rail-

Russian-German were given place on
said ticket. =
