PRAIRIE HREEZES

A few weeks ago there appeared
in this column parenthetical sketch,
serving to show the inner working Of
poetical composition. Diligent read
ers may remember the sketch, from
the opening stanzas which are repro.
duced here:
Hard by yon hedge that skirts the
lane
Il guess that line will do
Its quite like any Goldsmith strain,
"A modest flower grew!
1t flung its perfume to the air.
(That sounds a little slow,
But some ones calling Copy" there,
I'll have to let it go!)
There were severeal other stanzas in
the same strain, the whole being a
rather disjointed tale of the wooing of
prairie flower by the westwind. in
which We're interjected the obserya-
tions of the author as he endeavorcd
to fit the words to the idea. In the
course of time the sketch travelled
from Bismarck to New York, where
1t appeared in the New York Times.
travelled thence south along the At
lantlc coast. cut across the continent
to Chicago, where the Inter Ocean
was good enough to give it space.
took fall excursion to Duluth. where
1t appeared under a new name. and
after visiting at several way .stations
got back to the Pacific coast where
1t was republished at Portland under
bran-new title Mr.. Frank Jason
Van Winkle of that city, being a poet
OF no mean genius himself, took the
idea, cut out the parenthetical OBJ
servations, chinked in the openings
with musical lines and sends the Tri-
bune the following creditable sketch i:
Romance Of the Westwind.
Hard by yon hedge that skirts the
lane
A modest flower grew;
Beyond it waved the growing grain
Near 1t the grasses new.
A flower it was of beauty rare
And delicate of mould:
Its balmy breath perfumed the air.
Its leaves were made Of gold.
It's sweetheart Westwind, bending low
Pressed on its lips kiss:
1t waved in answer to and fro
Without thought amiss.
All through the springtime. though
unheard.
They pledged their loves anew:
We'll wed in autumn" was his word
It'll then be ever true"
Farewell, dear heart, farewell" he
said,
Till summer time is Ger" ;.
The flower sadly bowed its head
And heard its love no more.
When he returned one autumn day
To claim the flower his own,

vice" But it will not be with fear
and trembling that our delegation will
approach the wise men of the irri-
cation service They will be backed
by a consciousness of right-meaning
and just a little confidence in the
fairness of the requests of the people
of North Dakota as expressed through
their delegation in Washington in
respect to this matter.

Out on the PIutocrats.

Emmons County Record: The peo-
pie Of this part of the world were able
to eat their Thanksgiving turkey
without fear Of bankruptcy as a result
thereof. Turkeys are quite plentiful
in Emmons county this year. Nice
fat fowls Of the species most appro-
pirate to the day set by presidents and
governors for giving thanks were
brought to Linton by farmers and sold
at 10 cents pound In the Twin
Cities they We're quoted at 22@25c,
while Greater New York folks went
turkeyless or paid 3O@35c. The dis
patches tell us that Roosevelt's official
gObbler weighed within a few ounces
of 35 pounds. The bird, at 30 cents
per pound, would cost $1,000 And
yet this extravagant man wants to
again be the chief executive of q
frugal people. Out upon him! We
OF the New Northwest who can't af-
ford anything better than porterhouse
steak are saddened that he should set
such an example to the nation. Has
he forgotten that when the Roman
patricians began paying fabulous
sums for peacocks' tongues and
things like them-as A. Edrds d
say-the seven hilled city was mighty
nigh to the crack of doom? And. as
patriot, we hereby give him formal
notice that we'll not vote for him next
fall-leastwise, not more than once.

MONTREAL STREET CAR
STRIKERS DO DAMAGE.

MONTREAL, Qub., Feb. 6.-Riot-
ing by the striking employees of the
Montreal Street railway and their
sympathizers started early, today. A
car was wrecked less than two hours
after the mass meeting held after
midnight. at which the action of the
Union in ordering general strike was
endorsed. More than 1000 street rail
way employees attended the meeting
and an equal number of their friends
waited outside the hall to hear the re-
suit of their deliberations. The news
that a general strike had been declar
ed was received with cheers and the
strikers accompanied by their friends
marched toward the different car
barns shouting and singing. A large
crowd assembled at the head barn in
Cote street. The word was passed
around that a car was running on one
of the principal streets. A crowd OF
strikers and their friends went to meet
it. When the car reached the corn
er it was met with vOlley OF stones.
The motorman was roughly handled
and forced to leave the car The mob
hurled stones and bricks at the car,
completely wrecking it. Later mo
torman, who attempted to run car
out of the barn was assaulted and SO
badly injured that in all probability
he will die. A majority OF the strik-
ers are French Canadians and have
the sympathy of that portion of the
community.
