JUST NOW the people and news
papers Of North Dakota are talking
Of Il recent coup made by an early and
llonered settler Of this county. A
good many years ago, when John
Worst was appointed to the position
Of president Of the agricultural college
at Fargo, the sentiment of his old
neighbors was that the peg would
fit the hole in every respect. And the
favorable predictions Of the aforesaid
old neighbors have not failed in any
way. The college has been made one
of the most successful in the country.
But for long time teachers and pu.
pills have yearned for a new library
building. The state couldn't afford
to build it-at least, 1t couldn't be
done while Il majority OF the members
Of the legislature were falling over
tne another in their frantic efforts to
secure appropriations for some pet
fantastic scheme that should glOrify
them with the voters Of their respec.
tive neighborhoods. In this dilemma
the suave and brainy chief push Of
the farmers school scratched his un.
thatched dome Of Thought and thunk

StorkS A1lTht.

From perasal OF the Records col
umns this week 1t would seem that
the stork has been paying considerable
attention to Emmons county Of late
in the matter Of gifts. Last Wednes-
day evening word came from Livona
that q son was born on Monday, April
Sd, to Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. II. Baker, Of
that neighborhood. This makes two
boys reported this week for April Sd.
Our Livona correspondent further in.
forms us that the mother and boy are
getting along nicely, and that Papa
Baker looks as wise as an owl. Al
though the correspondent doesn't
mention how Grandpa" and Grand.
ma" Baker take their new title-this
being their first grand.child = yet
we're willing to bet something that
Wesley and his good wife are nightly
pleased with the little stranger. How
ever that may be, here's hoping that
the little clap will grow to be q
strong and healthy man, and that lie
| may succeed In living down the mem
| ory that one Of his grand.dads was 9
member OF the North Dakota legisla-
ture.

THERE is an ugly look about some
recent peculiarities in connection
with the prosecution Of an alleged
horse thief, and some very remarkable
correspondence has taken place in re-
lation to suggested compromise. {"
The people Of this county want to see
John Mcdonnell tried. If lie is limo.
cent. they want him acquitted. But,
ON the other hand, il he is guilty,
they want him sent to the peniten-
tiary. The people of a county wherein
practically every one owns horses can
not be expected to have an excessive
regard for the tender sensibilities Of
alleged horse-thieves. And they want
to see every dollar paid that was
necessarily spent or legally earned in
pursuing and capturing the man wlM
lies in Linton Jail accused Of stealing
horses. The safety from theft of the
equine property of county is to,
vital matter with a farming com.
munity to have it mixed up with pol.
itics or political factionalism.

How About the Boys7

A few years hence, says the Lari-
more Pioneer, the boys Of to-day will
be men. There will be doctors, law
yers, ministers, laborers, merchants,
thieves, republicans, democrats, ana
SO on down the line. 1t is impossible
to forecast to certainty in what
class your boy will be, but 1t is pos
sible for your boy to be put under In
fluences that will steer him in the
right direction. In u few years some
Of the boys Of your acquaintance will
be holding positions Of honor and
credit to the community In which
they were brought up, while Others
will be in Jail. Parents, do you know
where your boy is tonight and for
which position be Is training?

The Minot Optic says that the
United States land office at that place
has received instructions from the
commissioners Of the general land
office at Washington To the effect that
hereafter all proofs must be taken be-

judges and clerks of courts OF record

the privilege Of taking proofs. In addi-

stipulates that witnesses in final

that there was good old man down
east who had more money then SEN
or, rather, more money than he knew
what to do with. Now, while this g.
o. m. had established certain rules
and regulations which had to be
followed before his plethoric wallet
could be made to open up, yet his
established methods of procedure
we're not like the, statutes OF those
ancient Iranian peoples of whom his
tory gives us SO many more or less
authentic yarns. Ii approached in
the right way 1t is said that he will
suspend his rules and bylaws and get
at the meat of proposition sans cir.
cumlocution or the unraveling OF an
unnecessary amount Of red tape. At
any rate, as John Worst wanted that
library building badly, he made over.
lures to Mr.. Carnegie, asking that a
present Of S15. 900 be made to the COL
lege authorities with which to erect
the longed-for structure wherein the
pastoral youth of the state might
congregate to make intellectual medi-
cine. Well, John has a good bit Of
personal magnetism, and is quite a
hypnotist, himself. So, when he went
after the venerable Andrew, that wise
old parsonage perceived the inevitable
not afar of, and, like Davy Crockett's
coon, at once came down. And now,
through the initiative Of Mr.. Worst
and as a consequence of his abiding
faith in the old saying that ..::Some
things can be did as we'll as Others"
the people OF this state are to have
a fine library building for the use of
their boys and girls without it cost.
Ing them d burned cent. Hence it is
that people and papers all over North
Dakota are throwing bouquets at Mr..
Worst, and likewise hence it is that
the gentleman's old neighbors in this
neck Of the woods are glad in a two
fold way: glad because the people
Of the state get something mighty
nice In the nature of a present, and
glad because they know that their
old friend ands tellow-pionccr is glad.
In concluding we will suggest that
perhaps President Worst could pre-.
vail on Mr.. Carnegie to accept the
task Of financing the state entirely
and continuously. How much better
and more reliable lie would be, when
funds were needed, than the bucking
and kicking brepchos Of legislative
session, and what a weight of sorrow
and responsibility it would remove
from the states executive officer
who must perforce spoil a gross ol
pens and waste a gallon Of finkvetoing
appropriation bills at every session.

How different sometimes, after you
get to know them, are the people
you've Heretofore only heard Of.
Now, there's Representative Shiels,
the prohibition leader. We we're
won't, when reading of him, before
we knew him, to size him up as a

wouldn't smile il he could. On the
contrary, he is of the roly-poly build,
with a rosy countcnance and friend
ly and genial manner. In fact, he is
one Of The most ompanionable men
we ever met. There are very few pet,-
pie that know Shiels who don't like
him
