SHE WASN'T CAREFUL.

An exchange relates that q husband
and wife stopped at q hotel in the
town Of Its publication. During the
night the gentleman was taken with
q terrible case of cramp collie. The
good wife was frightened nearly to
death; bat, knowing that something
must be quickly done, she slipped on
her wrapper and descended to the
dining-r0om, where she emptied the
contents OF the mustard .cruet into
her handkerchief and ran back up-
stairs. She dtyed into the room, ap-
preached the bed, turned, down. the
covers, and slapped the plaster on the
mans atOmach: 4 No sooner was it ia
contact with his hide than the man
popped up In bed and yelled, "Nhat
IN h-la are you doing, woman?" The
lady gave q glance at his face. Il
was not the face Of her husband. A
screech like that Of the.fOg-horn OF,
an ocean liner split the midnight air,
There was 9 sound Of patteripg feet
and swishing drapeY1e@ q door
slammed and quiet reigIed. When
the lady reached her Own room she
told her husband OF the mistake she
had made. and II tickled him so that
the cr1Hip. took q chsnge Of venue.

IT will be found in this state, as st
was found in Minnesota, that those
onlce.seekers who chiefly depend for
success upon the corrupt use of money
at caucuses and conventions will, in
the caming agl1t for primary-election
Law, line up against the measure with
those honest but densely conservative
persons who fear Experimentation in
any and every line. On the other,
hand, every prospective candidate
who is willing to submit his claims to
affair ballot by the voters Of his party
will favor such q law. One argument
in favor Of a primary Of all voters lies
in the fact that it would prevent the
rupture Of many friendships. The
caucuses and conventions are the
cause of much bad blood. As there IS
little secrecy in the vote aud none as
to the personnel of the combinations,
there are almost invariably, after q
caucus or a convention, chargessof du-
plicity and double-dealing, and too
often there is good ground for the ac-
cusation. How often lifelong ene-
mies are made by some real or fancied
double-dealing act at a convention or
caucus. Are there not instances in
this county where friends Of long
standing-even relatives--men living
an honest and upright life-have been
estranged by caucus or convention
struggle for some petty office posses
sion Of which would be meager and
unsatisfactory exchange for TIE sacrl-
feed friendship? The direct nomina-
;tion OF candidates by q vote Of the
people, guarded by the secrecy Of the
Australian ballot, and its consequent
abolition Of the caucus and the con-
vention, would reduce to a minimum
the evils complained Of.

Captain Cushing, of Bismarck, who
has been gathering exhibits for the
states display, was here last fall. He
saw the stone buildings. He recognized
at once the desirability of having some
samples of the stone in the states ex-
hibit. A single specimen was sent to
Prof. Babcock, Of the state university
at Grand Forks, who is collecting
the mineral exhibit. That gentleman
wrote to the sender: "The sample has
arrived, and ] am very much pleased
with it. 1t is a tirst-class building
stone." The professor then goes on
to ask for "four cubes of about two
feet, and six more like the one you
sent (about foot square and five or
six inches thick)." He also says that
be will pay for quarrying, for hauling
and the railroad freight charges. The
stone will be- dressed at Grand Forks.
Inasmuch as the stone must be fur
.eished at once. II at all, in order that
it may form a part of the states ship.
ments by the carload to St. Louis,
something should be done right away.
When the state pays the expenses, it
may be thought that all there is to
do is to hire some one to quarry the
stone and ship it, But there's the
rub. With the limited amount OF
leisure at his command, the editor of
the Record has not been able to secure
the services Of any one to promptly
quarry and ship the stone: II you
know any one who will do this, will
you please ask him to call at the REQ
ord office?
The requests of the state Louisiana
Purchase authorities for the samples
are very urgent. They are actually
begging for exhibits Of the Linton
sandstone. In a letter received last
Tuesday from Captain Gushing that
gentleman says: ''Piease send to Da
yid Bartlett lieutenant governor,
who heads the commission for procur-
ing and assembling the state cxhib-
itsl Hotel Waldorf, Fargo, the ad-
dress of the party handling the land
upon which the stone is found, as
Mr.. Bartlett wants to do some busi-
ness with him as to the stone, at
once,'
The matter OF an exhibit OF EN-.
mons county building stone being
shown at St. Louis is up to we'uns OF

Now, why such an edict should be
enforced without any seeming benefit
