A COUNTRY CLUB.

A meeting was held Friday evening
n the law offices of Dist. Atty. +. h.
Bump for the purpose Of ascertaining
whether or not the time is ripe for the
organization of country club. There
was a good representation of business
men present and the matter was
thoroughly discussed, though no
definite action was taken.
L. A. Pradt, who has witnessed the
benefits derived from such clubs in the
East, made a statement of the objects
of the meeting, ETC., after which others
persons present discussed the advisa-
bility of formulating such club. All
were agreed that such club would be
a benefit to its members and while, as
stated above, no definite action was
taken, still a temporary organization
was effected, which will perhaps be
perfected at a meeting to be held at the
same place next Friday evening.
Among the things talked over was a
location for headquarters for the club.
The most favorable site mentioned was
that of the Lille farm near the asylum
grounds. This consists of 100 acres
nearly So of which would be 1ooded
with water in case the Rothchilds dam
is built. The matter of building club
house, boat house, arranging for
boats, fixing up golf links, tennis
court, croquet grounds, setting out
shade trees, etc., was also discussed.
AS CO mmittee to ascertain what the
Lille farm can be purchased for the
chair appointed Messrs. L. A. Pradt,
G. j. Winton, W. HI. Mylrea, G. l..
Warren and F. E. Bump. This COM
mittee is also to draft form or rather
a plan of organization and to report at
the meeting to be held Friday evening
The prevailing opinion was that the
membership feet ought to be fixed at
S25 to begin with.

We had intended this week to
begin the publication of a series
of explanatory remarks relative
to the primary election law, the:
new system under which our
next state Legislators, county and
city officers care to be chosen,
but now find that the self allott-
ed interim has been inadequate
for the gathering Of allrequisite
data, and then, too. our mind has
become filled with other thoughts
in theimean time, and boils over
as follows:
While the present editor of
this publication might be con-
sidered an entire stranger to the
political situation of the state Of
North Dakota, nevertheless he
emigrates from a state with
whichsthe similitude politically
is so striking as to make him
feel for the present situation al
most a homelike familiarity.
There in Wisconsin we left not
so much a republican and demo-
cratic party striving over the
highest seats in public Office, as
two factions Of the one party
more bitterly and unscrupuously
opposed to each other than re-
publican and democrat ever
Were.
There we left the Stalwarts,
headed by such renowned and
able statesmen as John C. Spoon
er and j. W. Babcock, against
whom were arrayed in bitterest
hostility the half breeds, under
che leadership of that shreWdest
of reform politicians, then
Governor, now United States
Senator Robert M. LaFollette.
And here in North Dakota we
find a faction, heaued by some
of the most eminent men in the
state, which some one has been
pleased 70 designate as the
gang, attacked by another
gang Of would be eminents"
In ,wn as. the Insurgents a
class Of envious, ambitious office
seekers, we take it, who CORES
pond exactly to the half breeds
Of Wisconsin.
No fair minded man in this
age OF graft cares to fatty deny
the presence of more or less cor:
ruption npolitics and some poll
rical bosses and some political
policies; but as a disinterested
and,unprejudiced judge Of events
in Wisconsin during the last
political campaign, we wish to go
on record in the unbiased state
ment that of the two political
factions in that state it were inn
possible to discriminate in point
OF honesty or interruption. But,
OF course, one expects more from
a man or a party who dares to
brand himself with the resp1en-
dent name Of, @reformer,,'', who
dares toadaWn the sacred robes
of reformation, for the satin
wilderness Of that cloak shows so
much more readily the stains Of
corruption. The reform party in
that state fathered and nourish-
ed the primary election law, but,
not Withstanding their loud
hues and cries for 6 direct cleo
ton by the people, it is at least
interesting to note that that ia
vorite radical measure went not

COLORADO CANYON SCENES
n. Coles Pictures Surprised an,
Delighted an Audience at the
Methodist Church.

llr. Geo. l.. Cole entertained a
good audience at the Methodist
IclnlIch Monday evening with numer-
Gus scenes porrraying the beauties
and the grandeur OF the grand can
yen of the Colorado river. DIR. Cole
secured his views by a personal visit
to the river, and took them With
the idea of displaying something be-
sides the beauties to be seen. The
personal information that DIR. Cole
is able..to give along with the display
Of his p%ictrues enhances his lecture
very much, and gives to the nearer
a nor adequate idea of the canyon
and its wonders than one would re-
ceive by listening to a stock lecture
and seeing stock plates. DR.. Coles
pictures are based on a different idea
than that Of the average lecture Of
the Canyon, for bis were secured
from the standpoint of an explorer.

former goes owe the route more
carefully than the latter. and.thus
connects up scene and gives them
a different meaning than those which
are taken here Or there, as the scene

artist.
The same thoroughness was dis
played in the canyon pictures that
was shown in the two lectures on the
ancient and modern Cliff Dwellers,
and in these DIR. Cole displayed
scenes that are not in the possession
Of any other lecturer and were secur-
ed only after a long personal research.

Saturday Night

The second lecture in the series of
three lectures by DR.. Cole, of Pasa-
dena, CAL, was given at the college
chapel Saturday night before quite
a good sized audience. Tbe...doclor's
subject on tEis occasion was 1.-The
Modern Cliff Dwellers. or the
Pueblos." Many fine views were
given, showing the home OF these
peculiar people, their social, political
and religious life. manners and Gus
toms, their sacred dances and cere-
monials. That we have such cities
and. such a civilization in this
country was a revelation to nearly
every n in the audience. The
views with the descriptions by one
who has spent years in the study OF
the people was intensely Interest ing.
D1. Cole called attention to the
tact. that these people are living out
the oldest type OF social life in the
world, that in which the woman is
the head OF the family: inheri lance
passes through her: she is the head
OF the household: she il is who
makes proposals OF marriage and to
her home the newly married hus-
hand is brought.

ANCIENT CLIFF JEWELLERS
DIR. Geo. L. Cole Presented 81 Fine
Illustrated Lecture at the Col
lsge Friday Evening.

The lecture on the Ancient Cliff
Dwellers given by DR.. George L.
Cole at the college chapel Friday
evening was a decided success. The
chapel was well filled with an inter-
esting audience. For nine years DIR.
Cole has been making personal in
veStigations of the relics OF these
ancient people whose home was in
the states OF Colorado, Utah, New
Mexico and Arizona. He gave
interesting descriptions of their life
and habits, aud threw about ore
hundred and twenty five different
views upon the screen which enabled
tue hearers to get an admirable idea
OF the customs and life OF these
primitive jewellers in this interesting
part OF u own land. He showed
that here there was a well-developed
civilization. and that these people
built much after the manner of the
ancient Egyptians. MANY houses
were from five TO sever stories i'll
height. built in the clitl from one
to two thousand feet apove the sur
face Of the river, and frequently one
thousand feet from tue top OF the
clili. He refuted the idea that
these people We're pigmies and show
ed pictures of the skulls. bones, aud
mummies showing that i'm some
instances they were seven feet in
height. Every moment of the lee
ture was interesting. and tie audi
ence was we'll pleased.
