Gill;

The Forum appears to have misled
us a little or else it's political prophets
are not clear eyed, for the election of
Mayor Johnson was not to be expected
same time, we have little doubt that
Mayor Johnson will give Fargo a good
administration and that he will do his
share and a little more toward keep
ing the Gateway City before the world
1t is remarkable what a tremendous
agitation can be stirred up before a
city election, and how quickly and
easily it subsidies afterwards. The
newspapers in Grand Forks, for ex-
ample, would have had us believe for
the several weeks past that the whole
moral and raterial future of that
city depended on the outcome of the
city election. Now there will be a
subsistence of the heat that was de-
veloped during the campaign, good
citizens will acquiesce in the result
cru Will Sb PCttCSdDIS

If there is any comfort to be derived
from a general coal strike, it lies in
the fact that @the strike begins in the
spring instead of in the fall. So far
as North Dakota is concerned, there
is little apprehension from the effects
of a continued strike, as the vast
quantities of Ignite coal insure plenty
of fuel, whether there is Or is not a
shortage of anthracite and bituminous
coal. At the same time, good citizens
will not fail to deprecate strike of
this kind because they are not. i'm
mediately affected. A continued strike
is certain to mean suffering and loss
1t is to be hoped that the good sense
and fairness of operators and miners
alike will enable them to get together
and settle the difficulty. ,% !

Ingersoll's Joke on Talmage.

The late Robert G. Ingersoll was
riding in a street car one day when
the Rev. Dewitt Talmage got in, and
they presently fell into an argument.
Finally Ingersoll said:
"Then you would like to live in a
place, Brother Talmage, where every
one had to be good by law?"
Certainly" said Talmage.
"You would like to live where every
one had to 60 to church regularly
every Sunday?"
"Yes, that would suit me-"
"Wtere no man could get a drink
and where swearing was not per.
mitted ?"
Eyes. that's the place for me-"
"Aud where every man had to keep
regular hours ?"
"That would be heaven on earth, y
said Talmage, smiling and striking
his knee with his open palm.
"well," said Bob, looking over his
glasses, "youd better 60 to the o. p
That's what they do there. ."-Ohic
