De Mortuis. Etc.

Lying at funerals was being discussed
by some Methodist ministers. An old.
white haired man said: Perhaps it is
best merely to read the burial service over
the dead. but it is the custom in or de-
nomination to make a few remarks, and
this custom is one hard to get away from.
L have never lied at a funeral On the
other hand. have never told the whole
truth. Once, at the funeral of a woman
whom l had profoundly admired, / ven
tured to tell a little Of the truth. She
was nervous 1 said, high strung. and a
little irritable. She wounded her friends
now and then with words spoken in anger
that she did not mean. But she was ever
ready to retract, and no one forgaye more
generously than She Well. I had loved
this woman, and 1 spoke of her from a
full heart. as I'd have spoken of my dead
sister of my dead son. But her family
never forgave me for saying that she had
been irritable and sharp-tongued They
knew it was quite true. but they never
forgave me for saying it. Don't lie. breth
rem, at funerals. but don't tell the truth,
either. "-Philadelphia Record.

GRAND FORKS, N. D., Sept. IL
The hard frosts of the past two nights
has killed all green vegetables, but
the damage to field crops is slight. In
the valley and for considerable dis
lance west all the cutting is done, and
in the northwestern part of the state
practically the only crop uncut is late
flax, of which perhaps so per cent is
still standing. A little late barley is
standing. The corn crop was hope
leSSly belated by the COOL rainy
weather, and for some time farmers
have been cutting 1t for fodder. Stack
threshing was resumed today in some
places, and there will be some thresh-
ing out of the shocks. The wind has
changed to the south, and there is no
indication of more frost.

FERGUS FALLS, Mimi. Sept H.
Frost hit this neighborhood hard last
night, as far as gardens and fruit were
concerned, but grain was only slight

ripe anyhow, but was so far ad-

interfere with its use. for fodder. The
wet weather absolutely stopped the

port of that course, based as they are
upon your special and personal rela-
, ton with that portion Of the contro-
versy which deals with colonial pref
erence. You have done more than any
man living or dead to bring home to
the citizens of the empire the con-
sciousness of imperial obligation and
interdependence between the various
fragments into which the empire Is
geographically divided.
Il believe you to be right in holding
that this interdependence should find
expression in our commercial as well
as in our political and military rela-
lions. 1 believe, with you, that a
closer fiscal union between the mother
country and the colonies would bene-
fit the trade of both and that If such
closer union could be established on
fitting terms its advantage to both
parties would increase with years and
as the colonies grew in wealth and
population.
No Tax on Foodstuffs.
'If there has ever been any differ
ence between US in connection with
this matter, it has only been with re-
gard to the practicability of the pro-
posal which would seem to require on
the part of the colonies a limitation in
the alI-round development of a pro-
tective policy and on the part of this
country the establishment Of prefer
ence in favor of important colonial
products. On the first of these re-
SUPPLEMENTS I say nothing; but. If the
second Involves. as 1t most certainly
does, a taxation, however light, upon
foodstuffs, l am convinced, with you,
that public opinion Is not yet ripe for
such an arrangement The reasons
may easily be found in past political
battles and present political misrepre-
sensations.
IF. then. this branch of fiscal re-
form Is not at present within the lin
its of practical politics, you are surely
right in your advice not to treat it as

The political prophets are already
busy appointing Austen Chamberlain

Selborne secretary for the colonies, etc,
because 1t is recognized as impossible
that an appeal to the country can be
much longer delayed. and the general
opinion Is, in the shattered condition
of the Unionist party. the Liberals will
be returned to power.

Great Void to Fill.

Leaving out the United States, these
three exporting countries, Argentina,
India and Australia, will still leave a
great void to be filed from somewhere.
The people of Europe must eat and an
increasing number want their bread
made from our wheat.
Il am also considering in this re-
view the probable increase in the ORR
entail demand. The country has been
advised of the big ships which James
J. Hill is about to put into this trade.
1 expect to see wheat from the Da-
kotaS handled by the Great Northern
and the Northern Pacific to the Pa
cffic coast and shipped to China and
Japan. Mr.. Hill will want something
to put into his west bound cars instead
of hauling them empty. Wheat will
answer his purpose admirably because
he will get the haulage on the railroad
and the ocean freight for his big ships,
too.
Even this year the Pacific coast will
have practically no wheat for export to
Europe. The crop of Washington and
Oregon is estimated at 35,000,000 BUSH
els, which is 25 per cent below last
years crop. This clears the deck of
all except the United States, which
means the Mississippi valley, and, we
might say, the Northwest.
OSfUdUo lOT NOTSflWSSLSTn Wn6dts
THE spring wheat of Minnesota and
the Dakotas is the most important
single crop of the world as a price
maker and this year the Northwestern
crop will be in sharp demand from the
outset The visible supply was alarm
ingly low just before the crop began
to move. In fact, much of the wheat
came from Kansas. / have no hesitan-
cy in saying that the total years pro-
duction will be snapped up quick. Even
before the. recent frightfully bad
weather the crop was estimated at
l5O,o00,000 bushels for Minnesota and
the Dakotas. The Minneapolis mills
consume 100000 bushels alone. The
other mills which draw their supplies
from the same source grind so. 900 600
bushels more. Seed wheat required is
estimated at from 15,000,0 900 to 20 .0O0.-
600 bushels more. This leaves no grain
for shipping from Duluth or by rail
