INCONSEQUENTIAL

Reading a column editorial in
a recent issue of the Grand Forks
Evening Press on ''The Penetra-
ting Small" recalls to mind a
few disagreeable things of a per-
sonal nature that may or may
not be of interest to Inter- Ocean
readers, but we will take a
chance. The truth might7as well
be told.
The original conspirators who
Matched the diabolical plot to
foist upon the unsuspecting peo-
pie of Grand Forks a modern
evening newspaper, never
dreamed of the terrible calamity
that was in store for them. The
Evening Times came and remain
ed in undisputed possession of
the evening field Of that city for
several months. The Evening
Press had gone into it's dotage,
and was feeble and inirm. The
Evening Times force was in the
habit of assembling occasionally
and gloating great gleeful gloats
over this self.evident fact. The
Times evidently filled a long
felt want. Its circulation, in
fiuence and business generally,
increased rapidly. while that of
the Press dwindled to nothing.
But how little we wot of the
calamities that are to befall us.
Like a thunder clap from a clear
sky, one Ben G. Whitehead shot
athwart the journalistic heavens,
huttered, and then fell into the
Press office. The fond dreams Of
fame and wealth to come from
duty well performed, were ruth
lessly swept away from the
bright minds Of the Times push,
by the unhearalded advent OF
this brilliant journalistic meteor
from Posey county, Indiana. He
out dazzled in brilliancy any
thing that had shown UP in this
state up to that time, and there
Twas a general hegira of the Even.

Uncle Josh Spruceby held forth
at the armory Tuesday night to
ia big house. The leading lady
was pretty, the comedian had a
bad cold, the soubrette was pert
and lively, could sing fairly well
for the average soubrette, Uncle
Josh was somewhat of a Josh,
the villain was stacy, and the
saw mill scene was the real
thing. The show took with the
house, which, after all, is the
only criterion to judge by.

CANNOT CHANGE ITS
SPOTS,

The democratic party, from
tradition and interest, has ever
been the party of the saloon.
Now and again some individual
democrat arises to pledge his
party to the contrary, but the
student of political history in
this country need not be told
that should the democracy as
party come into possession of
the reigns of government the
old-time spirit of friendship for
the liquor interest would assert
itself and the hope Of the saloon
element would be revived.
The good men and women who
dislike and oppose the saloon in
huence are not disposed to dis
courage any one who processes
anti-liquor sentiments, be the
person republican or democrat.
If he is a democrat they will
60 out of their way to insure his
conversion and permanently fix
convictions. But it is altogeth-
er another thing for prohibition
lists to take a whole political
party to their bosoms because a
single member Of it.who is run
ming for Office gives evidence of
repentance.
If necessary the w. G.. T..U.
can well afford to appoint a COM
mittee of the three, or five if
need be, to keep ssJohn Burke,
the Individual. in the straight
and narrow path, but it cannot
afford to abandon the great null
titude of men composing the
rank and 6le..of the republican
party-men who believe that
prohibition is a cardinal republi:
can principle-and engage in
pursuing a phantom in a field
where the cohorts of liquor have
their strongest Notifications.
Gov. Sarles cannot, and would
not if he could, turn his party
over to the saloon. On the other
hand it would be impossible for
John Burke to wean his party
away from liquor. These truths
are self-evident, and were long
since recognized and admitted
by that most estimable lady and
sincere prohibitionist, Mrs.
Elizabeth Preston-Anderson.-

Compared with 1904, Ireland showed a de-.
crease of 5000 acres in cereal crops. Oats
decreased 1866 acres, barley 3,454 acres,
while wheat increased 7,035 acres. The po-
tato area decreased l ,785 acres.
Hard times are reported from Portugal,
where many of the vineyard owners have in
their cellars the haryests of two years, which
they are unable to sell except at a huge sac
rifce. Overproduetion is the cause.
William A. Brewer. Jr., formerly president
of the Washington Life Insurance Company,
has been indicted by the New York grand
jury for perjury. The charge grows out of a
report made to the State superintendent Of
insurance in 1903 regarding the condition of
the company.
Ms, John Disston, Of Grand View, Edgar
county, Illinois, holds the record of that COM
munity. Eleven months ago Mrs. Disston be-
came the mother of twins, both Of which are
alive and thriving. Saturday, April % her
husband and friends were surprised when she
brought two more little ones into the world in
favorable condition. The latest arrivals give
promise of being as hearty and as long lived
IS their predecessors.
