The Senatorial Situation

A peculiar condition exists in the
Legislature over the senatorial propo-
sition.
A week before the legislature met
everybody supposed the election of a
Republican United States Senator
was sure thing.
Now it looks very much as II a
Democrat would succeed Senator Tel
Ter at Washington.
1t all comes about over family
row between Republicans. Seventeen
Republican representatives in the
house have declined TO work with
the other Republicans and have on
organization, at least, formed fus-
ion with the Democrats.
The whole object of this deal is to
defeat the recollection Of Senator VOL
colt. 1t will probably win but it may
be at the expense of senator.
Had the Republicans worked to-
gether there was no question about
the election of Republican. As 1t
| is, the chance is very doubtful.
However, the anti wolcott people
who have gone in with the Demo-
Gratis claim they may yet elect Re-
publican.
The Republicans over the state al
most unanimously condemn the II Re-
publican Representatives for ooniving

New Recruiting Stations.

The rate of enlistments at the city
stations of the general recruiting SER
vice throughout the country has been
so unusually low for several months,
due in a large measure to the general
prosperity which has prevailed every
where leading to an extraordinary de-
mand for labor of all kinds at good
wages, that the secretary of war has
just issued instructions setting forth
the imperative necessity for energetic
action on the part of recruiting Off
GERS. To aid in attaining this object
recruiting parties will be organized al
all posts and will make weekly visits
to the towns within the district Of the
post for the purpose of securing de.
sirable results. The recruiting dis
tricts for the Department of Dakots
have been fixed as follows:
Fort SnelIing-Faribault, Red Wing
Saltwater, Mankato and st. Peter.
Fort A%ssinniboine, Mont.-Bentol
and Havre, Mont.
Fort Harrison, Mont.-Helena, Butt

May Cut the Space.

Fargo Forum: The North Dakota
Worlds fair commission is said to be
rather put out by the hint of the gen.
eral management of the st. Louis ex-
position that the states allotment of
floor space will have to be curtailed.
The commission was granted a definite
area of floor space and has been ma
turing plans to make an exhibit that
will occupy it fully. 1t would be mani
testify unfair for the general commits
sion to cut down the allotted space at
this time. North Dakota appropriated
$4,000 for the purpose of making an
exhibit of that would be a
credit to the state and surely deserve
fair treatment.

E ON PROHIBITION.
State Superintendent StockWell Speak,
Before the state w. c. T. U. al
Mavviile.

Before the State w. c. T. v. at
Mavviile. !
At the state convention of the W. c.
T. U. at Mayville State Superintendent
Stockwell spoke on prohibition. Mr..
Stockwell spoke approximately of the
honor conferred upon him in inviting
him to speak. and assured the con-
vention of his highest regard both for
the w. C. T. U. and its work. He said
that he had no sympathy, no regard
for the saloon, on the other hand, he
harbored a positive distaste for it,
and that he had a firm belief in the
North Dakota prohibition law. He
said that the law has removed from
the state mi of the most powerful cor
rupting influences in political life.
He reminded his hearers that it is
to the w. c. T. U. that the country
owes the law for special instruction
in the public schools and for the ex-
animation of teachers in the subject of
temperance instruction. He declared
that as a representative of the teach
ers he could say that no element is
more earnestly DESTROYS that the youth
of the land be given such instruction.
There is no question about the desir-
ability of such instruction, but there is,
the speaker held, a question about the
method of instruction. At present there
is a great deal of discussion on this
phase of the question.
Mr.. Stockwell reviewed the Atwater
theory and the report of the committee
of fifty. The great thing is to get at
the truth, to be careful to teach it.
He spoke against the use of the chart
showing morbid physiological condi-
tions.
From comparisons with the laws of
other states, the speaker had come to
the conclusion that the North Dakota
law was a little more rigid, requiring
more work. He thought. however, that
the work could be improved in quality
by being made more systematic. He
said that the common school course
of study is being revised, and proposed
that an outline of a definite course of
scientific temperance instruction be
made out in the near future. On it's
being done he would submit it to the
committee for revision, and on their
approval it would be incorporated in
the course of study.
The state superintendent empha-
sized the Importance of good example
in this kind of teaching. More can
be done by it than by much reading
of books. He said that parents should
make confidants of their children. and
not let false modesty keep them from
telling them what they really ought
to know.
Superintendent Stockwell spoke
with much feeling against the cigar
cite. He said that the cigarette is per
haps more pernicious than alcohol in
running young men. He said that he
want to see the evil stamped out.
In closing Superintendent Stockwel
assured the convention of his readi
!. ness to do what he can to forward The
work of Strengthening the young man
hoode and young womanhood in The
state.
