What Have They Left?

The insurgents must have a
scapegoat and they have chosen
M. N. Johnson. They are now
calling him ugly names and charg-
ing him with the defeat which was
SO efectually administered to their
delegates at Jamestown. Get as
much comfort out Of the situation
as possible. We would advise the
insurgents to be reconciled to their
defeat, and to forget their folly.
The cause is lost. The looting Of
Alaska can never again do duty on
the lips of those who we're willing
to give speed to a lie. A stalwart
convention of nearly two to one
has declared in favor Of extending
the primary system to the state
ticket, and to the candidates for
Congress. What have the poor
fellows left? We have the glad
hand for the man who honestly
thought that there was something
wrong. But for the leaders we
will not trust them for several
aeons yet. They dishonorably led
a dishonorable fight It is neither
business nor ordinary common
sense to trust them again. q

.if it will hold its constituency Of
readers. Notwithstanding its CON
fdent claims up to the very noon
Of the day Of the convention. its
cause went easily and irrevocably
down. It has been proven a false
and wickedly malicious leader.
The seal Of public disapproval has
been indellibly stamped upon it.
Its followers now know that it has
no conscience, and that its fight
has been made The fight has
brought into the lime light the
looters Of North Dakota. That
much has been effectively done.
They have invited their own
damnation. And their damnation is
eternal. That is the one thing this
fight has settled. The leaders Of
the insurgents have had new
baptism and new name. That
baptism has not been of the Holy
Cost, but every mothers son Of
them has had added to his cogno-
men, by reason Of its efficacy, the
suggestive title-''Dennis." We
want good government in our
state. We want every undesirable
character removed from positions
of public trust. But when we
find public official whom we de-
sire to be relegated to private life
we will be able to give a reason
for our desires or else we will keep
silent. The fight should be aban-
doned as gracefully as possible.

Wanted a Large Hotel.

The time has arrived for the
erection of a first class hotel build
ing in Devils Lake. With the
finishing Of the Aneta branch Of
the Great Northern, our city be-
comes the natural trade and travel
ling center Of ten or twelve count
les, the most fertile and the most
promising in commercial way Of
any group of counties in the state.
The city needs capacious host
elrY. Nothing helps a city COM
mercially like a fine hotel. We
recall that Albert Lea, Minnesota,
was for years without a good hotel
building. The travelling public
would avoid that city in every way
possible. They formed the habit
OF making some other town for
Sunday, and we have known com
mercial travellers to cover arun of
one hundred and eight miles to
reach Minneapolis, SO as to have
an agreeable place to spend the
only day of the week allowed them
for rest. The situation finally be-
came thoroughly understood by
the business men and other pub
lie spirited citizens, and capital
was induced to invest in one of
the finest hotel buildings in the
state. Almost Immediately the
hotel was filled, and at the present
time rooms frequently have to be
engaged in advance for Sunday
accommodation. Devils Lake is
similarly situated as Albert Lea
before the building Of the new
hotel. Commercial travellers,
while they are loud in their praise
Of the Sevilla, seek either Grand
Forks or Fargo for Sundays. A
fine hotel building will obviate the
necessity of going to the Dakota
or the Metropole, and will result
in the leaving of thousands of
dollars in our city now annually
spent in other cities. AS a bust
ness proposition for Devils Lake a
modern hotel building is one that
should appeal to our local capital
lists. 1t certainly would prove a
good investment.

HE WEEK
Filled With Gall and Spleen |
Still Fights.

The Grand Forks Herald is de-
termined to keep up the fight. In
its issue Of the 13thit says: "The
lesson Of the scare Of this year
will have as much effect on the
campaigns Of the future as yester-
days dew has on the crop today,
unless the efforts which have been
made and the work which has
been undertaken this year is sup
plemented by further effort and
further work in the future" Well,
what do you want? Do you want
as you have always been claiming,
to turn those out whom the people
have placed in Office, and put in
your friends? All because of an
alleged footing of Alaska" by one
Of North Dakota's citizens? Is
that your reason for all the sland-
er you have been mouthing for
the last two years?: If SO, your
race as re-former is run. That
lie about Alaska is exploded, and
its irrelevancy has at last become
apparent to the people. "Further
effort and further work in the fu-
ture." for sooth. The Herald will
soon find that its efforts and work
will have to be of different
type in the future than in the past

Nye of The Valley. !

Below we quote from the Valley
City Times Record paragraph
which is fairly representative of
the reliability of the insurgent
press of the state. It justifes the
position taken by the Inter-Ocean
from the beginning, that these re-
formers have never put any con-
science into a fight that, for virul-
ence and downright filthy scandal
mongering has had no equal in the
history of state politics in this
country, This paragraph was
written in Jamestown the after
noon before the convention. The
claim made was in the face of facts
absolutely contradictory to the
claim. Yet this reform editor was
willing to deceive his readers If
for only a day longer. Here is
the precious morsel which he, with
knowledge aforethought, gave out
to his readers:
'The chances of the insurgents
for success look good. There is
strength in their camp which the
gang claimed. Pembina county
it is said has bolted Sarles and
will be for Johnson. The Ward
county delegation which has been
reported in favor Of the machine
is with the insurgents. Neither
side will have enough to control
the convention, although the in
surgents have the larger number
OF pledged delegates 85
Take this paragraph and find
one iota of truth iii it if you can.
Remember this statement is made
by one of the sanctifed resformers,
one who has been telling his read
ers for two years that they must
not be deceived by the scribes and
pharisees of the stalwart wing of the
republican party in North Dakota
He prayed loudly in public that he.
might prey in private on his credu-s
lous readers. He put on sack
|efothsand ashes, and mourned con.
|sgpic uously for his poor adopted
state of North Dakota, because
Alaska was looted" while all the.
time he has been cheek by iowl
with the hooters Of the state he
loves 50 dearly. Winship has not

not gleefully tickled, while both

Ohio, for illegally advancing the
price Of ice is an incident Of con-
siderable Importance. 1T shows
that courts are taking on more
courage than heretofore. It shows
too, that it is beco ming customary
to consider the crime and the AMI
mus, rather than the criminal and.
his social and financial standing.
In other words we are gradually
cultiyating the habit Of treating
all men alike, no matter what their.
station in life. These ice dealers
in Toledo violated the law. Why
should they not be punishedp The
man who steals blythe thousand
dollars is as much OF q criminal as
the man who steals less. In fact,
the man who steals q small amount
frequently does SO to feed and
clothe himself or family. The
man who robs after the manner Of
the Trust is not as a rule, in need
Of the necessities of life. He is
simply criminally avarici GUS. He
should be. made to feel the bosom
of the law. In this country we
are supposed to administer the law
without fear or favor. But we
have never done it. There never
was a time when the rich man did
not have favors. This is wrong.
The mans financial condition
should not figure at all. A rich
man should be treated just the
same as if he was not rich. When
that time has certainly come in
this country, and in other count
ries, the world will be much.
more desirable place in which to
live.

Canadians and Americans.

Writing of the difference between
Canadians and Americans CORE
spondent says: 1.-THE differences are
mostly Of degree; the superb self
confidence Of the average American
woman, an she walks abroad, the Ii
censed obtrusiveness of children, the
perpetual degeneracy of conversation
into story-telling-these characters.
tics are less marked In Canada than
in the states. In fact, Canada presents
as yet sub.American variety of civ
ilization. though In some ways rap
Idly assimilating to the states. Phys
ically the Canadian seems to be a
sturdier stock of heavier build slow.
er moving and less nervous than the
American. This is particularly apple
able to the women, whose movements
and conversation are quieter, and
who are without the hunted look in
the eyes which marks so many Amer
leans. ---..----p..-.
1t may be that the colder climate
exercises some moderating influence,
but probably the chief explanation
of these differences lies In the fact
that most Canadians are couptry
born and bred; there are few large
cities, and even the jewellers IN these
cities keep up a more constant con-
tact with country life. Nowhere in
Canadian cities does one see the pro-
fusion of luxury and waste visible IN
New York or Chicago; though most
persons seem to live in fair comfort,
there is no class of millionaires dom
mating society and making the form
and pace for servile imitation among
the less wealthy classes.
Hunting and fishing. with their 40
compartments of camping out, play a
large part in the national life, sport
not having degenerated into the mere
ly gambling and spectatoriaI habits.
Altogether the Canadian lives a
healthier life. Even busy cities like
Toronto and Montreal conduct their
business life more quietly than cities
of corresponding calibre in the Unit
ed States"

but few act up to the maxim with the

Wherever or however he may travel,
whether the visit be of business, pleas

only to the hour, but to the minute-it
might almost be said to the second.
And yet his majesty is never seen to

device for glancing at small watch
which he wears fastened TO his wrist.
