Resolved. That we congratulate that
splendid soldier, exemplary commander
and patriotic citizen. General Nelson a.
Miles, upon his attainment of dis
tinguished and honorable retirement
after matches, record as soldier of
over forty two years service without
just criticism of his official conduct.
which began as a lieutenant in the
Twenty -second Massachusetts infantry.
progressing by the brightest grade Of
heroic patriotism from Manassas to Ap-
pomattox during the greatest Of allie ivil
wars, from 1861 to 1865, and Illuminating
this record by his great military achieve
ments as a successful Indian fighter and
again as great and judicial military
disciplinarian and organizer
President Roosevelt was doubtless very
much interested in this fine tribute to
the distinguished soldier whom Mr..
Roosevelt has persistently sought to dis
credit and humiliate.

THERE is something more to being q
national freak than the little bit Of
noteriety that is gotten out of it. When
Mrs. Carrie Nation ceases to attract at
tention and retires from public exhibi
ton to indulge in her pet hobby of estab-
fishing home for drunkards' wives she
will doubtless have many thousands OF
dollars laid away. Since her debut as a
public attraction, Mrs. Nation has step
ped into scheme which is paying her
$1,000 or more year. Three years ago
Mrs. Nation had nothing more than her
share of the fees of her husband, a
country lawyer with an ordinary practice.
Since then she has put $4,000 in pro-
perties in her own name, all of which,
with the exception of the $1,000 home in
Medicine Lodge which she secured when
she was divorced from her husband, has
been earned on the lecture platform and
in the sale of her souvenir pins.

Governor White has sent personal
letters to every member Of the state
legislature, asking for an expression OF
opinion regarding the advisability OF
calling a special session of the legis-
lature relative to relieving some Of the
state institutions of their financial
troubles by making an appropriation
from the general fund. At some little
length Governor White reviews the con-
ditions in which the institutions are left
by the decision of the supreme court in
validating the institution bond issue,
and asks for the cooperation of the
Legislature members in relieving the
situation. The governors plan is to ap-
propriate for immediate availability the
sum of 100000. another $4,000 to be
available March l, 1904, and other ap-
preparation of $4,000 or $4,000 to be
available March l. 1905. This would
make a total appropriation of from $780,
OOO to $4,000, and the governor says
that the general fund will stand the
amount. In event of special session
this will be the recommendation of
the governor to the members. Governor
White asks each member to write him
an expression of opinion on the subject
and it is not likely that any special ses-
sion will be called until all or majority
of the members have been heard from.

The season of 1903 will long be re-
membered by North Dakotans for the
alternate hopes and fears entertained for
the growing crops. Early in the spring
the outlook was magnificent, in fact
could net have been better. From the
end of May to the early part of June de-
lection was to be seen on every face
The drouth was visible agency that
threatened disaster. Along came the
rains of July, and the visages broadened
From that time the favorable weather
and growing conditions inspired hopes
And now that harvesting is through and
threshing promises results way beyond
what was counted on the work is again
delayed by untimely rains that will
materially decrease the selling price OF
the crop.

MAcAEoS1 wheat yielded forty bushels
an acre on farm near Mapleton. in
Cas- county. This is the wheat that
has unfairly been termed ''goose" wheat
by crop experts. However, Prof. Shep-
perd, of the state agricultural college at
Fargo found on making scientific
analysis that macaroni wheat is far
richer in qualities that make food
nourshing than spring wheat.

SOME of the crops at the state agricul-
tural college at Fargo have been thresh-
ed. 1t is interesting to note, as showing
the benefit of crop rotation, that land
sowed to corn last year, and disced
twice this spring before seeding, produc-
ed forty bushels of wheat to the acre.
Land that has been planted to wheat for
twenty one years consecutively, produc-
ed 16 bushels of wheat to the acre.
While the latter yield shows the
wonderful fertility of North Dakota soil.
the advantage of scientific rotation and
cultivation is apparent.

A DAILY PAPER FOR ST. A YEAR.

The st. Paul Daily News, a bright, in
dependent daily afternoon newspaper,
announces that the price will be in
creased on and after Oct. l, 1903, from
the present rate of 81 to $3.50 a year.
The new price is remarkably cheap, but
the management offers to renew any old
subscriptions or accept any new ones
sent in during September at the rate of
81 per year. The Daily News is printed
every day in the week except Sunday
and it is paper worth as much as any
on the market.

UP AGAINST IT.

The republican papers are indus
triously circulating the report that
William Jennings Bryan is to bolt from
the democratic party. They leave nc
stone unturned in their effort to dig up
..stories" that will lead the people Of the
country to believe that the democratic
party is hopelessly disrupted. and that
it will be utterly impossible for the
party to settle upon suitable candidate
at the next national democratic conven-
ton. To the papers that are harping
about the proposed bolt on the part of
Mr.. Bryan, we beg to offer his latest in
terview on the political situation. 1t
follows:
| do not think Grover Cleveland a
suitable candidate for the presidency on
the democratic ticket. and do not think
the national convention will make the
mistake of placing him at the head Of
the ticket Grover Cleveland would be
no stronger as IL candidate for the Office
than myself. and now consider that |
am badly out of the race for the time. at
least | would not make an acceptable
candidate next year and would not ask
the party to make the sacrifice Of nomi-
mating me- What we need is a man who
has supported the democratic party thru
thick and thin. who is above the suS-
picion which has surrounded Cleveland,
and who is not backed by the moneyed
powers. My issues are dead, at the pre-
sent time, but they will come to life
again. The trusts and the tariff are the
main questions to make the fight on
next year. A regular democrat. a man
who is strong with both factions of the
all times, is the kind of candidate to
name next year.
In the above interview Mr.. Bryan
states substantially the opinion of every
leading democrat of the country, and as
for the story about the possibility of his
boiling the democratic party. the above
should give it the lie directly. In their
assiduous efforts to convince the people
that there is trouble galore in the demo-
cratic ranks. the republicans seem to for
get that they have troubles of their own.
They have financial problem on their
hands.
The president and the leaders of the
party have been endeavoring to six up
deal" in regard to financial legislation
for the past three weeks, while the pre-
sident has been at Oyster Bay.
But the IDEAL" still needs much six
ing" and it looks as if it would not be
';fixed" in time for the next session of
congress-
The republican party is up against
tariff reform.
1t is up against ship subsidy steal.
1t is up against the fact that the
people are becoming weary of the much
1auded 'strenuousity' and grand stand
playing" Of the president.
1t will be up against united demo-
cracy at the coming election.
If the republican party is not aware
of all the troubles that are brewing with
in its own ranks, then it is merely be-
cause the elephant has become near
sighted, or is looking thru the wrong
end of the political telescope. In the
meantime Mr. Bryan will not do the re-
publican party the pleasure of boiling
from the democratic party. Bryan is
man of honor, be his views on public
questions ever so different from those of
others, or even leading members of his
own party.

heart speak. He may handle

but if he has something to say,
and a purpose in saying it, peo-
pie will listen, and his words are
good seed sown in good soil.
These are the men who brings
things to pass, in church and

than having something to say,
