In Humbleness Of Heart.

The following from the kiowa News.
Review tells great deal between the
lines and we consider it q little sarcss-
tic. OF course, this Is clipped from .
republican paper and dedicated to re-
publican eyes:
"Some time ago we were informed
that the proper thing for rs to do
WAS to m-ekly fall into line and fol.
low, for say about two years. In the
ruts Of the local republican machine,
in order to gain their good will and
In time to get permission from the
bosses TO make application for rec
ognition at the official pie counter.
Two years Of probation and the
pleasure of doing the dirty wsshing
for those high in favor with the
commander Of all the united forces
on the Medicine river In Barber
county, where republican statesmen
grow on g, hills and true blue par
tisans abound in wallows and on
sand knobs, was very condescendIng,
indesd for such an old republican
reprobate as we were supposed to
be; considering that some aspirant
for political fame and Doodle was
required to crawl ou his belly before
his bosses and do dirty work for
them on q scant diet of humble-p1e
for term OF servitude of eight or
more years until he was promoted In
the ranks of the enlisted men and
given corporal's badge with a few
crumbs of pie dropped to him in q
clerks stall.
A new deal being on since the
Brigadier in command of the Big
Seventh brigade was promoted to o
| major generalshlp, conditions are
changing and as the process of re-
/ organization has already begun we
| will hesitate no longer to aid with
! kind words and the vigor of aroused
party pride and party loyalty to ad-
vocate profound harmony and good
will toward all within the rank and
| file of the grand old party"

it's shibboleth, and yet no one believes

power. it would have surrendered the
Philippines.
The investigation OF the Post Office
Department has doomed up into on
siderable proportions. Postmaster
General Payne has assumed the bur-
den of the investigation, which he him
self inaugurated last winter. His
statement puts at rest the rumors to
the effect that the investigation was
not i%nstigated by the Postmaster-Gen-
eral and that when he returned he
would put a stop to the proceedings.
1t is his expressed intention to thor
Oughly sift matters-to hew to the line

Assistant Secretary Allies, who has

hearty letter from the President ex-
pressing personal regret that he is
leaving the service.
Harrison and Quincy is the democra.
tic ticket suggested. Carter Harrison
of Chicago for President and Josiah
Quincy of Boston for his running mate.
Harrison and Quincy are good names
to c~onjure with. and come to think
OF it. this is about the best thing that
the democracy could do: to place
its strong reliance on a couple of good
names and let careers and records and
platforms go by.
The democrats seem to find it i'm
possible to fittingly honor Thomas
Jefferson without sitting down to elab.
crate banquets. Yet Jefferson was a
statesman and not an epicure. and
moreover was avowedly opposed to
any o~stentatious display. or to luxuri-
Il performances.

Not as many trees are being set out
this spring as should be. Steps will
be taken 500 to protect trees and TO.
liage by more rigid enforcement of the
pound ordinance. This should be an
additional inducement to property own.
ers to beautify their premises Trees
are cheaply obtained in Bismarck. but
many more are being shipped out than
are being set out at home. Residents
or other parts of the state are glad to
be able to buy trees, and pay freight
and express charges in order to get
them. Bismarkers should appreciate
n ease with which trees are obtaina.
Die here and make Arbor day this year
memorable for the number of trees
set out.
