to the inner law, and this law Is nei-
ther the good pleasure Of the mighty
nor the caprice of the crowd. but the
high and impersonal rule before which
those who govern are the first TO bow
tie head. Shall liberty. then, be pro-
scribed? No; but men must be made
capable and worthy OF it; otherwise
public life becomes impossible, and the
nation, undisciplined and unrestrained,
goes on through license into the mex
tricable tangles of demagogy.
When one passes in review the in
dividual causes that disturb and COM
plicate our social life, by whatever
names they are designated, and their
list would be long. they all lead back
to one general cause. which is this
the confusion Of the secondary with
the essential. Material comfort, edu-
cation, liberty, the whole Of civiliZa-
tion-these things constitute the frame
Of the picture. but the frame no more
makes the picture than the frock the
monk or the uniform the soldier. Here
the picture Is man, and man with
his most intimate possessions-namely,
his conscience, his character and his
will. And while we have been elab-
Grating and garnishing the frame, we
have forgotten. neglected, disfgured,
the picture. Thus are we loaded with
external good, and miserable In spirit
ual life. We have In abundance that
which, II must be, we can go without,
and are infinitely POOR In the one thing
needful. And when the depth Of our
being Is stirred, with IT'S need OF low
ing, aspiring, fulfilling its destiny, 1t
feels the anguish of one buried alive
Is smothered under the mass Of sec
ondary things that weigh 1t down and
deprive it Of light and air.
We must search out, set free. re-
store to honor the true life. assign
things to their proper places and re-
member that the center Of human prog
ress is moral growth. What is a good
lamp? 1t Is not the most elaborate,
the finest wrought, that of the most
precious metal A good lamp Is a
lamp that gives good light. And so
also we are men and citizens. not by
reason of the number of our goods and
the pleasures we procure for ourselves,
not through our intellectual and artis-
tic culture, nor because of the honors
and independence we enjoy, but by
virtue of the strength Of our moral
flber. And this is not a truth of today,
but a truth of all times.
At no epoch have the exterior condi-
tions which man has made for himself
by his industry or his knowledge been
able to exempt him from care for the
state of his inner life. The face of the
world alters around us, its intellectual
and material factors vary, and no one
can arrest these changes, whose sud-
denness is sometimes not short Of per.
ilous. But the important thing Is that
at the center Of shifting circumstance
man should remain man, live his life,
rake toward his goal; and. whatever
be his road, to make toward his goal
the traveller must not lose himself In
crossways nor hamper his movements
with useless burdens. Let him heed
well his direction and forces and keep
good faith, and that he may the better
devote himself to the essential-which
is to progress-at whatever sacrifice,
let him simplify his baggage.

A ME of HUNGARIAN Folklore Illus
trating German Ffrmness.
Here is a bit Of Hungarian folklore:
After the Lord had decided to expel
Adam and Eve from paradise he sent
Gabriel. the Hungarian angel, to carry
Out his order. Now, from the eating OF
the fruit Of the forbidden tree Adam
and Eve had become quite shrewd, and
they were endeavoring to get out OF
the fix as best they could, so they pre-
pared a big feast, received Gapriei
with the utmost kindness and sought
to win his heart by lot Of affection
ate words. They succeeded. 1t grieved
Gabriel to expel these kind hosts from
their home. He therefore returned to
the Lord with the request that some
body else be charged with this un-
pleasant mission.
Thereupon the Lord sent Florian, the
Roumanian angel, because the LORD
knew Florian to be more obedlent and
less magnanimous. Adam and Eve
were just dining when Florian, hat and
large cane In hand, stepped In. He sa-
luted in O most humble manner and
then told why he had come. "Have
you It In writingT inquired Adam Sc
verely. NO" stammered the visitor,
and, frightened, he returned to his
heavenly abode.
Then the Lord sent Michael, the Ger
man angel. Adam and Eve at once set
to work preparing even richer meal
than had been served Gabriel, think
ing they might induce Michael to be
lenient. So the very best things were
served, and there was no scarcity OF
beer and good sausages. Michael ate
until he could hardly even wheeze
Then he arose and, drawing his sword,
said, NOW you get out OF this" Ad-
am and Eve tried all their little tricks
to stay. They appealed to his mercy
and ~implored him to consider how
nicely they had treated him. But oil in
vain. Michael remained firm, merely
saying, 1T must be-" And hs drove

MINOT, N. D.-Will Judge Palda be noni-
mated for Judge of the eighth judicial district
by the democratic convention to be held in this
city tomorrow? That Is the question democrats
and republicans are asking. To many 1t seems
foregone conclusion that he will be the demo-
cratic nominee, and that he will accept the
nomination and make the race on the democratic
ticket, flooding the district with stickers for the
republican ticket on election day.
Judge Palda has not openly announced his
candidacy an Independent, but 1t is known
that he is circulating letters among his friends
asking them to support him in the event Of his
running.
The situation in the county Is becoming de-

licans will have fight. Judge Of Probate Muir
