that board than is already on the

WESTVS

The following statements made by
Gen. King will be read with interest
by western boys who followed the flag
in the far away east.
The soldier from the east was a
coward and not to be compared with
the soldier from the west.
This was the declaration made by
General Charlie King, the new presi.
dent of the Society of the Army of the
Philippines, at the final meeting of
the society at Peoples church.. St.
Paul, last evening.
SIT was the soldier from the west
ern states who did the fighting in the
Philippines, said General King.
"While the privs tie soldiers from
the west were fighting and making
history for their country the soldiers
from the eastern states were crying to
g. back home.
"They grumbled about their ratlons
and were not content to eat from any
thing except china dishes.
"Their comrades from the states
farther west were looking for an op-
portunity to fight and were content
with the food furnished them
The soldiers from the east were
the best on earth on parade but when
it came to fighting they were not to

The Leeds News in its last issue
presented some convincing arguments
an its reply to the Bismarck Tribune
on the bond question. The conten.
tion of the Tribune is that a state
board of control would have avoided
the complications that have arisen
over the expenditures OF the state in
situations. The editor of the News
is a member of the board of trustees
of the school for the deaf of this CITY
and knows whereof he speaks. Refer
ring to the action of the board with
reference to this institution, he says:
Nothing was done in the way of
building until after the trustees had
received notice of the purchase of the
bonds by the board of university and
school lands. Is there a man who
would have thought Of doubling thu
certainty of getting the money OIL
those bonds when he knew that the
same kind Of bonds to the value O,

Not much. 1t was first grown along

it was discovered that it would not

Ouu WAS celebrated generally
throughout the country as Labor Day.
Business was suspended, and the toll
ing thousands marched in parade and
heard speeches from eloquent lips.
Possibly the best presentati on of the
true conditions of labor in it's rela-
tion to the employing world was made
jby Rev. J. M. Cleay in his speech in
Minneapolis. He said:
"That social condition is abnormal
in which the individual feels that his
rights will not be safegua1ded unless
he protects himself within the shelter
of closely organized craft. That
economic condition is abnormal in
which wealth feels insecure unless
protected by irresistible combinations
,,of sold. The sovereign will of the
people should decree that neither
combinations of wealth nor labor
shall create abnormal conditions"
That is a clear and concise state.
rment Of the relation between capital
land labor. If that doctrine becomes
the accepted theory of labor the rele.
-bration of Labor Day will not be in
vain. But if on the other hand the
contention of labor be carried so far
q to encroach upon the rights of
Others and seek to deprive others of
inalienable rights, either by insisting
con unreasonable demands on the en-
.ploying bodies, or by unreasonable de-
mands upon those Of the same or aft
lated crafts, then the great balance
between the two sides becomes broken,
and n or the other must necessarily
suffer, and Labor Day parades will no
longer represent the tribute of the PEG.
Eple to the great class of yeomen whose
: Drawn has made possible the prosperity
OF the greatest people on the earth,
but will become a rabble throng of
anarchists and similar classes which
respect neither law nor right. Nor
the opposite side as is tersely
stated by MI. Cle1y find it necessary
to be protected by irresistible comb
nations of gold in order to feel seizure.
If the two great branches of the in
dustrial world can come to realize the
absolute dependence of one upon the
other, the ruinous fights between
tabor and capital in the form Of
strikes and lockouts will be things
of the past. 1t is pleasant to see
men with the temerity to discuss
those propositions before the assem-
bled throngs on Labor Day.

Idaho Fruit Wins.

The national irrigation congress
which has been in session at Og-
den, Utah, during the last week
awarded number of handsome
prizes for agricultural products.
The competition was very sharp
and some of the best collections
ever exhibited on the coast were
there. The loving cup presented
by Senator w. A. Clark, for the
best fruit display was won by Ida
no. A dispatch reporting the re-
suit says:
Utah is sadly disappointed and
Idaho jubilant over the result OF
the competition in the fruit dis.
play, the Senator Clark loving cup
going to Idaho, in spite of the pre-
diction that Utah would be an
easy winer. The Idaho display
was undoubtedly a fine one, but in
variety, size and artistic arrange
ment the Utah exhibit, to outward
appearance, seemed alone in it's
glory. However, when the expert
judges commenced their work il
was found upon Internal inspec-
ton that the Utah apples and
pears were wormy. The defect
was fatal and regretable.
