W. did all this without
ton. We converted a city of pesti
tence into a winter health resort.
W. gave them money to start the
citizen soldier in private life-re-
paired the ravages of war. We gave
them our institutions and assisted
them with our experience. We re-
lieved them from the responsibility
of creating a nation, and the discords
and dangers Of such an undertaking.
But with all this, the student mis-
takes the signs of the times, who does
not foresee the rising Of the revolu-
tionary spirit. It is a national char
acteristic Of these people. They have
been in revolution SO long that peace
is oppressive. The hot, southern
blood rushes in torrents through the
veins and makes them naturally i'm
p~ulsive. The revolutionary spi rit
has come to them as a national charac.
t~eristic and it will take more genera
tions to eradicate it than it did
to develope it.

W. have often had occasion to urge
upon the people OF North Dakota, and
Ramsey county in particular the
necessity of diversified farming. The
short crops in many sections this year
emphasize this necessity. If a farm
er depends on grain alone, when a
drouth or hail strikes him he is en-
tirely out of income. Now, if he had
several industries, if one failed, he
would still have the others. If the
farmers would give more attention to
creamerles, they would not only have
a source of remunerative income, but
would have it regularly. The time
never was when a farmer in this
| county could not keep several choice
COWS and In the average years a dozen
could be kept on the waste on almost
any quarter section farm. The
trouble so far with this business has
been the fact that there was no avail
able market for the products Of the
dairy farm. But the market can be
treated by the establishment of cream
cries where the products can ready be
,, converted into commercial butter, al
with profit to the farmer who furnish
cd the cream and the creamery which
converts it into butter. If the farmers
in each community would join in a
cooperative scheme, they could build
their own creamerles and thus realize
the entire profits. This matter
should receive the attention of the
uisness people as we'll as that of the
farmers. For if the farmers in this
country are financially prosperous, the
business men are likewise affected.
Devils Lake could support a creamery
that would bring thousands Of dollars
into the community every year.

even a number Of them TO wage a
Warfare of determination on them un-
less the same efforts are put forth in a
large section CT country. We do not
wish to be understood as making laws
for the state. Just at this time we
are bnsily engaged otherwise. But
we need an effective and at the same
time practical law that will exter-
inmate the animal. If a state officer
were created to look after the matter,
and then the work so arranged that
there would be a local board in each
township whose duty it would be to
place properly prepared poison on
every quarter in the whole township
within certain dates, say ten days,
and the pay of the board m ade so re-
munerative that they could afford to
do the work we'll, the result would be
that in a short time the entire state
would be rid Of the animal, and the
farmers would be sayed thousands of
dollals.

"Mother' Jones, who has been

Gently to the labor troubles in eastern

view with the president. She has

there is any reason for Mr.. Roosevelt
refusing to see Mrs. Jones as a visitor,

heart of the man who has labored so

would be responsive to the cry of these

There should be an equity between
labor and employers that would assure
both their rights without injury to

heroic endorsement when he created

The Cuban patriots, sometimes
more appropriately called the revelu-
tionists-the press dispatches tell us,
are firing of quietude and are again
anxious to be on the walpath. Those
Cubans would be amusing if they
were not serious. This nation placed
them in such a position as a nation
as no other people in the world ever
were. We took a few struggling
soldiers, a government that existed
only OF paper, and a treasury with
out money or credit, and out of these
chaotic elements constructed a nation
not great, but certainly respectable.
