RECIPROCITY AN ISSUE.

The keynote was sounded last week
when fully 62.00D voters of Massachu-
sets signed petition demanding closer
relations between the United States and
Canada. 1t Is estimated that more
than 10000 were republicans and most
of them are business men. Ever since
the reciprocity treaty was abrogated in
1865. it is Canada that has made the
advances and the United States that
has rejected them. The Canadian mis-
sion Of 1874 failed. that Of 1891 and
1892 failed, and that Of 1886 failed. that
IF lsas failed. While preaching reci-
procity. republican congresses have
steadfastiy refused 10 actualize any Of
their sermons. Reciprocity has been re-
garded as an excellent thing in theory.
but bad thing TO practise. 1t is good
70 catch votes. but valueless in obtain
ing the sinews Of war. The recently
enacted tariff of = ton on steel rails
Is one symptom Of Canadas present
feeling. The favor with which Mr..
Cham berlain : preferential tariff policy
is received Is another. If America ex-
poets 20 obtain easier access to the
erea. Canadian market there is not
much time to lose. Every year will
lind Canada less disposed to negotiate,
and the business men of the United
States are wise enough to know it.
Whatever advances are made in the di-
rection Of better trade relations with
Canada must come from the United
States. The Canadians themselves are
sick of rebutfs. They have too much
pride to huu1iIiate themselves further
in the matter Of promoting reciprocal
commerce.

REPEATEDLY has the DEMOCRAT beer
asked to explain what man should do
after taking up an estray. The outlined
course to be followed Is given herewith
for the general information Of many of
our readers who we feel will be person
ally interested:
Bring or send the notice for publ,ca-
ton, if you live in the county. If the
estray is not taken away by the owner
within one year after the advertisement
thereof. it will then become the prop
erty of the person taking it up, unless
its appraised value is more than S25.
This value is ascertained by appraisers
who will be appointed by the board of
county commissioners, on application of
the advertiser. If the appraised value
Of the animal is more than s25, a justice
of the peace should be asked to desig-
nate place where the animal will be
sold, and name the day and time Of day
for the sale, and cause notice of the
sale to be advertised three weeks in
weekly paper of the county: and the
animal shall be sold, and after all fees,
costs, charges for damages and feeding
have been paid out of the proceeds, the
balance shall be paid to the county
treasurer.

TIE DEMOCRATS AND FARMERS

When the democrats have been in
power they have always legislated in
the interest Of the farmers. The demo-
Gratis have only had the opportunity in
eight years out of the past forty years
to pass legislation. but during that time
they enacted three most important laws
to aid the agricultural interests. The
first Of these three laws that was passed
was in Cleyeland's first administration,
creating the Department of Agriculture,
which the farmers had long been
promised. but the republicans had failed
to perform. Before the department was
created there had been a bureau of
agriculture which under republican
control had deterioated into but a
vehicle for the distribution of garden
seeds. The democratic congress in 1886
passed law establishing the expert
mental stations All the work was
mapped out under democratic admin
istration that has led to the improve
ment in the breeding and feeding of
stock, the destruction OF noisome weeds
and protection of plant life from insects.
A democratic congress passed the first
appropriation for rural free delivery
to the farmers in 1894, though it was
not until the fiscal year 1867 that the
first routes were established In that
year the democratic postmaster general,
Mr.. Wilson, ordered 81 routes estab.
lished, and from that time to this the
growth has gone on apace, the demo-
Gratis always favoring it. The repub-
licans have been claiming the inception

The h.sterical extravaganza of such
rapid republican sheets as the Bis
marck Palladium and jamestown Aler,
conveys the idea that they imagine the
reading public to be blissfully ignorant
of the fact that in the campaign of two
years ago they were lined up with the
democrats. No one is lamenting the
manouevers that have resulted in the
landing Of these two Journalists of for
tune on the other side. They are in
politics for revenue only and among
their associates are as badly off as a
man without country. The Palladium
and Alert, like some other republican
papers We have in mind. adopt a tone
that sounds very much as if sincerity
were lacking.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1904-09-22

The republicans have had their own
way for seven years and half. but
there are now good many unemployed.
many others complaining of low wages,
and hard conditions. If they can make
prosperity by legislation, why do they
allow conditions to grow worse? The
existing situation proves the fallacy of
these contentious. and the calamity cry
will hardly deceive so many this year as
it did formerly.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1904-09-22

THERE is ample cause for the people
of Langdon congratulating themselves
on the extensive street Improvements
that have been made during the sum-
mer. Bad places in the grades have
been filled. cutters cleared out and the
weeds cut along the walks. so that
when winter comes the snow will not
block the way of the pedestrian. All
this shows a judiclous expenditure by
the city authorities of the poll tax and
other monies appropriated for street
improvements.

WE'LL. there is no dearth of political
excitement in Langdon this week-the
agitation will be renewed next Tuesday
and the excitement continues until Nov.
5. Perhaps the papers over the county
will have some mean things to say
about each other-they do sometimes
you know-and then the reader who
thinks himself warm number in poll
tics gets hold of the idea he isn't getting
proper action for his money if them
darned newspaper fellows don't timber
up some at election time.
