ago there were outstanding warrants
of $2S, 900, issued prior to Dec. 81. 1894,
with 500, 900 accrued interest. There
were 1924 of debt certificates,
$1,000 general fund warrants outstand-
ing, and a water fund warrant Of
s1.0SO, a total of $59.014. The debt
limit had been reached. and no war
rants could be issued.
Certainly the financial condition of
the city has improved. The March
bond interest coupons have just been
taken up, and ii necessary. the Sep
TENDER coupons could be handled.
The city has provided its fire depart
ment with new hose, with a hose house
where its apparatus can be cared for.
and there is a comfortable balance
in the fire fund. Over three miles OF
e stone sidewalks have been built.
Streets have been graded as far as
possible, and drains provided. A de-
tention hospital has been purchased
and fitted for the occupation of pa
tients. The streets have been lighted,
as far as a reasonable expenditure
will allow.
If the business men of the city, who
have the most at stake, will support
the administration as actively as its
enemies will attack it, there will be
no question of the issue. 1t is for
the voters of the city to say whether
they approve the administration of
city affairs. leaving out all questions
of personality or individualism. That
is the only issue in the campaign.

Less Flax, More Wheat.

One of the travelling men for the
Mccormick Harvester company is
quoted by the Grand Forks Herald as
saying that not over 40 or so per cent
of the flax acreage of last year will
be seeded this season. He adds:
There will be an increase I-believe
in wheat to the extent of ABOUT 20 or
25 per cent and the balance of the in
crease will be in barley acreage.
Scores of farmers with whom | have
talked expect to raise more barley
this season than for many years past.
Another thing that will be wit
messed this year also is a large in
crease in the acreage of macaroni
wheat. One farmer who has been
in the business quite heavily for sew
eral years past has made a success of
it from the start. He says he has
received better yields by 25 per cent
than from the ordinary wheat and this
spring he is selling his entire last
years crop for seed at 81 per bushel
The corr acreage will also be in.
creased this year throughout the
state. The value of corn is being re.
allied more and more by the Dakota
farmer not alone for its value as fod
der. but for its value to the land as 8
destroyer of foul weeds, and thor
ough cultivation"

the beard not SO much by the direct ap-
plication of weight or force as it does
by a slight ''seesaw' movement, which
causes the successive teeth" to act
rapidly on n certain part of the hairy
growth. The best razors. according to
the micrOscOpists, have the teeth Of
their edges set as regularly as those of
a perfectly set saw.
This explains the magic effect Of hot
water on the razor's blade-the act Of
dipping 1t thoroughly cleansing the
teeth of any greasy or dirty substance
with which they may have been

zors get tired of shaving and that

NORTH DAKOTA GOOD ENOUGH.

LaMoure County Farmers Decide That
There Are No Superior Attractions
in Canada.
Last fall Henry Tiedeman got the
western Canada fever, sold his fine
farm near Verona in LaMoure county
and a few weeks ago gave notice
through the Chronicle of the sale at
public auction of his live stock, farm
machinery and household goods. In
the meantime Mr.. Tiedeman concluded
to take a run up to A~ssinaboia. and
pick out a nice claim for himself. He
returned the latter part of last week
and lost no time in presenting ar ap-
pcarance at the Chronicle Office.
Say! want to stop that auction
sale notice of mine.' said MIR. Tiede.

have changed their minds, however

Wants $4,000 Damages.

Forum: This afternoon Deputy Sher-
if Hanson served notice on the
Forum in a suit for $4,000 libel, owing
to an item published from Renville the
other day that A. B. Mcdonald had
been arrested, accused of stealing
some work horses. He claims the
item il false and asks a balm Of q
verdict for $4,000. The Forum Ger.
tainly hopes the item is false, as 1t
had no intention of injuring Mr.. Nc
Donald. No request has been made
for a retraction and the Forum would
like to be enlightened as to the facts
in the case. MIR. Mcdonald has been
unfortunate enough heretofore, with
out the trouble of this suit.

A BISMARCK ISSUE.

The main question with the voters
of Bismarck at the coming city elec-
ton, should be the general welfare of
the city. Personalities and individual
whims and desires should not enter
into the campaign. Bismarck is well
governed, its finances are improving,
and its general condition is better
than for years. What is of advantage
to the city is of advantage to its
citizens. No doubt. there are some
personal grievances against the ad-
m~inistration-if there were not. 1t
would be a state Of affairs truly re-
markable. There may be some griev-
ances because consistent efforts have
been made to suppress violations Of
the liquor law. In this, the edminis-
tration has been merely Chewing the
mandate of the law, and the city has
benefited in public opinion through
the state. and has taken place among
its well governed cities. The city
cannot afford to declare that 1t will
not support an administration that en-
deavOrs to enforce the laws. There
may be other grievances founded on
various alleged sins of omission o.
commission. But. considering the con
ditions at the time Mayor Register
and the present administration took
control, and contrasting it with the
present condition. the fair-min led man
will admit that the management of
the city has been business like and
has wrought for good. This being the
case. it is entitled to Endorsement.
So far as the Tribune has heard. no
good reason has been advanced for
a refusal to support the mayor for re-
election. Bismarck has much in
prospect the coming two years. There
are additional improvements to be
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of sidewalks. con-
struction of sewers and other works
of construction, public and private.
CApCILcuCS VI Tie pTeStLt duillN-
istration will be of benefit. Fair
minded citizens will not deny the adj
ministration honesty of purpose.
Without arguing that another admin
~istration could not have carried on and
could not carry on the same good
work, the fact remains that the pres
ent administration has done its work
well, and that to refuse an indorse-
ment would be an injustice and q
declaration that Bismarck does not
desire an impartial enforcement of
the laws.
Coming to the matter of facts and
figures, the city now has a bonded
debt of $4S, 900, and certificates of in
~debtedness of 1924, making a total
debt of $53,274. This is some 5000
inside the debt limit. There are no
interest drawing warrants and a
rants drawn on the general fund are
payable in presentation. Two years
