 and IS regards occupation and occupation. Thank heaven we are free now from al dan ger of sectional antagonism. We must see that there never comes any spirit of class antago- nism in this country, that there never comes any spirit of hostility between capitalist and Wage-earner, between employer and employed. We can avoid all of this by always remember ing to treat each man on his worth as il man. tApplausr.)

So He Apuo,n..d Jones.

II began to practice law in Dakota
IN territorial days." said the lawyer
from Chicago. Our Judges were sent
to us, and some Of them didn't know
any more about law than they did
about the political beliefs Of the mound
builders. One Of them-I'll call him
Jones-was SO appallingly Ignorant
that 1t was great relief when on the
admission of North Dakota to the
Union he left the bench and began to
practice law. His successor was man
wholly without a sense of humor, and
the only good thing he ever said in his
life was wholly accidental. A man was
brought to trial charged with selling
liquor to the Indians. The Judge asked
him If he had lawyer to defend him.
"'No,' said the man, I don't want a
lawyer
"'Well,' said his honor looking about
the room till his eyes rested on his
predecessor, I'll appoint Judge Jones
to defend him. Washington Post.
