THE CAT is OUT.

The democratic cat is out of tn
bag. The Devils Lake Journal say
in glazing headline, John Burk
can do nothing alone" and then pro
ceeds to show that if the democrat.
are to accomplish anything in thi.
state the whole ticket must be elected
In the beginning it was claimed tina,
the only thing needed to reform the
state was the election of Burke fol-
governor. The absurdity of such a
claim finally dawned ON the demo-
cratic management and then the whole
party, including the Herald, openly
announced that what they wanted was
not the election of Burke and Fisk
alone but the election of the entire
state ticket which they are seeking to
bring about by the aid of the republi-
can voters of the state.
Of course that is the plan. But they
knew the people would fall on them
like an overturned pyramid if they
preached the matter all at once and
so they gave the political hypocrisy
to the people on the installment plan
There is a reason for this. So far
as the Herald is concerned, it would
again have the opportunity OF getting
in its celebrated thirty-six per cent
profit on state printing graft The
rest of the democratic party would
have the opportunity of securing
number of appointive officers at the
hands of Mr.. Burke, the state institu-
tons would be turned over to the
management of that party just so soon
as possible. and they would be eco
nOmically administered like the.coun-
ty affairs in Pembina under it's now
famous democratic board, at twice the
ordinary cost
The story that the democratic party
merely wanted to elect Burke and
Fisk in the interest of what the dem
ocracy has been pleased to call polit-
ical reform is now shown to have been
a political falsehood and these two
candidates were merely used as the
entering wedge to secure possession
of the state. Republicans who ar.
such from principle can see the drift

money. About twenty years ago Mr.


Poupore engaged in the wood bust
ness in this city and for many years
employed a large number of men
often as many as hundred at a
time-and from one hundred to one
hundred and fifty horses. He thus
became large handler of money and
helped to build up the business of the
city and the county in general. He is
now engaged in number Of business
enterprises and was one of the pro-
motors of the creamery of this city,
investing his money, not because he
expected to reap big profit from
SO doing, but to help the farmers OF
the surrounding country in establish
ing a market for their milk product.
He is himself a large farmer and is
among the heavy taxpayers of the
county. He has for four years filled
the position Of county treasurer and
this with his dealings with the county
and his years of service as county
contractor gives him knowledge of
county affairs which make his election
almost an imperative necessity. 1t
ing all the years he has been engaged
in businesses. and the large number
of .men-carried on his pay rolls, he
never had deal with any man ques-
toned, and his integrity and square
dealing has been of such high char
acter that he has never been engaged
in single law suit. The tax payers
of the second commissioners district
will find in him a man worthy OF their
support irrespective of party affilia-
tions. because he has a record as a
business man and as an official that
courts the minutest scrutiny and his
special fitness for the work of the
office is such that no man who de-
sires to keep down the expenses and
taxes of the people can hardly afford
to vote against him.

the AK payers VI tHlS county are
aware of the fact that the thing in
election which most directly concerns
them is the handling of the public
money. This is paid into the treasury
by the tax payers on the estimates
furnished by the board of county
commissioners. and is expended by the
same board. That it is possible to
waste vast sums is certain. That
such is not done is due TO the fact that
the voters and tax payers of the sew
eral districts keep their fingers we'll
on the selection of the county COM
missioners and 1t is only in few
cases that those disposed to handle
the public funds eXtravagantly get
into Office. J. r. Poupore is
a candidate on the republican
ticket for the Office of county COM
missioner in the second commission
er's district. He is one of the best
informed men for the position to be
found in the district. He Is an old
resident Of the county. coming here in
1881, nearly twenty-six years ago, and
during the quarter of century that
he has been a citizen OF the county
he has had opportunities for studying
and understanding the needs OF the
county as no other man has had. For
a number of years after coming to the
county he was engaged in general
contracting and built nearly all the
bridges and did nearly all the grad
ing for the county. He, is therefore
thoroughly conversant with the needs
of the county and the value OF such
work, not in a theotical sense, but
in practical manner II ia we'll
to bear in mind in this particular
that the road and bridge fund is the
heavy item of expense to the county
and man on the board who is an
expert in that line of work would GER
tainly serve the tax payers a good
purpose and save them considerable

A small south end boy who had

Is any criterion to go by the local
legal lights are dead easy-a species
of fish, as it were, akin to the festive
sucker.
OF course they will sexplain to you
that they were busy at the time, and
that they bit simply to avoid the an
noyance OF persistent salesman, who
had invaded their respective offices,
but when it is known that nearly every
lawyer In the city took hold of the
bait, you can accept the explanation
with small grain of salt.
Several days ago a smooth duck jim
vaded about every law office in the
city. He had a new tangled "gum

And Of course they all took three,
just to get rid Of the fellow.

had use for gum stickum" and the

CARRY SMALLER BIRDS.
Eminent ornithologist Asserts Larger
Species Assist Smaller in Their
Annual Migrations.

1t was an opinion held by many
in ancient times that small birds in
migrating were often carried on the
backs of the larger. In Egypt, for
example, it was held that wagtails
were thus carried by storks. And
many years ago Swedish naturalist,
Hedenborg, made some remarkable OBJ
servations on the subject. During the
arrival of the flights of storks at
Rhodes from oversee, HedenboTg fire.
quently heard the voices of singing
birds without being able to see them.
At last, after careful observation,
when flight of storks had just alight-
ed, he saw that they had small birds
perched on their backs. The writer
of recent book, "Recreations of
Naturalist" Mr.. J. E. Harting, has
some interesting remarks on this sub.
ject. Most ornithologists probably
regard the idea as a myth, but Mr.
Harting's remarks seem to admit
possibility that there may be some
truth in it
