Judge Glaspell lis said to be inter
ested in democratic papers at James
town, Darlington and Valley City.
Judge Lauder is to be the democratic
nominee in the Wahpeton district and
Judge Palda is the democratic nomi-
nee in the Minot district. Here are
three district judges running on demo-
cratic tickets simply because they
were turned down by the republicans.
They were turned down because they
wanted to run things Judge Lauder
wants to defeat Senator Nice umber,
which is not laudable ambition and
the state will not allow it. Judge
Palda wants to- perpetuate Murphyism
in the northwestern part Of the state
and the great county Of Ward wont
stand for it. Judge. Glaspell wants to
be dictator in the jamestown district
and is not wanted by the bar nor by
the leading republicans Of his district
who have been DESTROYS Of taking the
judiciary out Of politics in the sense
Of political activity on the part OF
the judges. These gentle men do not
want it that way They want to run
things. They have used the prestige
OF their Office to destroy the republi.
can organization that has honored
them in the past. A non-partisan Jul
dietary is all right, but the history
and record Of Judges Lauder Glaspell
and Palda justides the fear that the
bench in these three districts. if these
renegade republicans succeed, will be
worse than partisan. $.5# ,'S

PARkER's PRESENT CHARACTER


In the evolution which Is always un.
dergone by a democratic politician, AL
I ton B. Parker has changed from the
honest, truthful and judicious Judge to
the demagogue. His letter OF accept
ance shows the schoo cling and influence
Sof the associates which have ] sur
4 rounded him during the past few
4 weeks. There are in his letter many
urtruths and many half truths, besides
many statements which, IL not untrue,
are at least misleading. Partic ularly
@is this true in his quotation from Mr..
4 Nick inley upon reciprocity The gen
sSeTal statements Of Mr.. McKinley are
reproduced while the specific state.

policy and principles which Mr.. Nc.
KinIey advocated are omitted. This

II from democratic spellbinders, but
We did not look for It from Judge
Parker.

BUSINESS CONDITIONS GOOD.

OF the market and fnacial situation
Henry Clews says: .sNo adverse in
fiuences have developed in the out
side situation. The crop killers lost
their vocation, and while the yield Of
corn. cotton and wheat is below early
estimates, which is 4 the almost UNI
broken rule, still q liberal supply Of
corn and cotton is practically assured,
and SO far as wheat is concerned this
country is likely to secure compensa-
tion In high prices for the 100, OOO, 900
bushels which it seems able to spare
for export. A very encouraging fea-
ture is the continued growth Of bank
clearings, which is not entirely attri-
butable to stock exchange operations.
Another good feature is the improve
ment in railroad earnings. B In the sec
5ond week sof September 43 railroads
reported gain Of over s per cent, and
in the first week SO roads announced
q gain Of over 4 per cent. These re-
turns, which have been steadily gain
ing, substantiate the hopeful Views
recently expressed by railroad man
ayers, besides emonstrating the In
creased activity Of general business.
OF the latter there Is no question, al
though II is strictly confined to moder-
ate proportions. Iron and steel ma
terials have been in much better de-
mand since the revision Of prices. and
while profits must be on: q much
smaller scale still the advantage to
producers Is reflected In the recent
rise Of the steel issues.
There is nothing in the monetary
situation to cause uneasiness at pres
ent. While the government Is facing
q treasury deficit, which may eventual
" cause a reduction Of deposits with
the deposdtary banks, such action is
not vet In sight The national banks
OF the entire country, which number
about s, O00, show an Increase FL cash
reserves for the year ending Septem-
her 9th Of $$1O7 ,0oO, 900 almost ali in
gold coin. Increased gold certificates
have also been issued by the United
States treasury during the same
period, amounting to SIX. 00e, 900, thus
making 1856, OoO, 900 increase in the
gold money Of the country in circula-
4 ton In the local market easy rates
prevail in spite Of crop demands and

about for some safe hole in which to

cling bag will at least mtthe its SIREN

But alas, if the clock be small and
round and easily hidden from sight in
stray corners of the bag! Twice have

TO PROTECT THE PEARL
transportation to Sheltered Spots sug'
gested.

Professor Herdman. who was sent to
Ceylon by the Colonial Office of Great
Britain. to attempt q solution and lind
q remedy, if possible, for the yeSrs OF
failure which occur so frequently IN
the pearl fisheries. has recently pub
lished a report which is most interest
ing. Not only during recent years, but
for many centuries previous, the fat
and lean seasons have been the despair
of the collectors of these beautiful
gems. The task Of investigation under
taken by Professor Herdman and his
able assistant, Mr.. Hornell, was no
light one, but, as the report shows,
seems to have been a~buIdantly fruit
full in scientific results and achieved
the purpose for which it "a dis
patched. A complete survey Of the
whole sea bottom Of the pearl fisheries
area has now been made. partly by
sounding and dredging and partly by
the aid of divers. Mr.. Ho-nell himself
descending in a European diving dress.
1t was found that lourishing beds are
often depleted by the ravages of boring
sponges, boring molluscs, starfsheS, in
ternal parasites and fishes, though
the destruction wrought by these is
slight compared to the wholesale de.
struction caused by shifting sands due
to currents or churned up by the SOUTH
west monsoon. One bed examined in
March, extending over an area of six
teen square miles was covered with
enormous quantities of oysters, mot
less that about a hundred thousand
Million In November of the same
year the spot was revisited. when this
vast host was found to have vanished,
having been buried in the sand or
swept down the deep declivity outside
the bed.
The loss from overcrowding is also
enormous. Professor Herdman sug-
gests the simple eXpedient of trans
planting to sheltered spots affording
suitable conditions for growth and in
lection. Nature has often to be as
sisted in the preparation of these
spots by the process known as "culch-
ing" scattering the floor of the bed
with rock and loose coral, TO afford an.
chorage for the byssus of the young
oyster. The havoc caused by starfsh
is shown from the fact that a bank ex-
amined in March, 1902, lodged a crop
of oysters estimated at FIVE and three
quarter millions; by March, 1908, they
had nearly gone.

Animals at Sea.

A French scientist has made some
interesting observations as to the be-
havior Of different wild animals at sea.
The polar bear. he says, is the only
one that takes to the sea. All others
violently resent a trip on water. and
vociferously give vent 10 their feelings
until seasickness brings silence. The
tiger suffers most of all. He whines
pitifully. his eyes water continually.
and he rubs his stomach with his ter
rible paws. Horses are very bad sail
ors, and often perish on a sea voyage.
Oxen are heroic in their attempt not
to give way to sickness. Elephants do
not like the sea. but they are amenable
to medical treatment. \ good remedy
is a bucketful Of hot water containing
three or four pints of whisky and seven
ounces of ~quinine.-St. James Gazette.

Time and Friendship.

'Few people give themselves time to b.
friends" says one writer. Friendship. az
an ideal is always lovely and attractive,
but friendship in reality takes so muck
time that we can hardly find room for II
in our busy lives of to-day. 1t takes tims
for parents and children to understand
each other we'll enough to be friendly; time
spent in the home circle is one thing neces
sary to genuine friendship between broth
ers and sisters; young people have all sort.
of social relations without that quiet
knowledge Of one another which make,
for true friendship. And in the friendship
that helps and uplifts the element Of time
j. still more prominent. what these peo
pie need is not money but personal inau
nest worker among the millions of a great
city. Even if we cast out everything that
is evil and worthless there are more de-
mands upon our time than we can respond
to-. We must make a choice in study, in
recreation and in duty. But whatever
choice we make, ii it is a wise choice il
will leave time to be friendly.-:Philadel.
