The Statesman's Return.

They waved the flags for Snidgely and
the brass bands loudly played,
And the air was rent with plaudits
after every bow. he made;
The people hailed their statesman as
the Romans used to cheer
When their heroes came home proudly
with chained princes in the rear.
What had Snidgely done in Congress?
Had he saved the ship of state
When 1T seemed that she was headed
for the rocks as sure as fate?
Had he, pade a statute giving to the
people new delights
And restraining Greed forever from
usurping Honors rights?
No, great Snidgely's proud achievement
in the lofty halls of state,
That for which the people hailed him.,
that for which they called him
great,
Was for the big appropriation for the
dredging of Mud Run
With the splendid chance for grating
while the little job was done.

ROOSEVELT AND NORTH DAKOTA.

A self-styled reform sheet says that
if President Roosevelt was in North
Dakota he would be called an insur-
gent, and the organs of the gang
would be critieising his actions and
impugning his motives. This is. SIM
ply hundred to one-shot at the truth,
missing the mark as usual.
1t isn't necessary for the president
to be in North Dakota in order to
correct things that need correcting.
He is long-distance statesman, and
If there were any ground for COM
plant against the Republican admin
istration in this state he might be ex-
pected to take a hand.
On the contrary, the president is on
the best of terms with what the insur-
gents call the North Dakota Mach
ine," the Washington end of which
has his confidence in high degree.
1t is this fact that disturbs the
would-be wreckers, who have persua-
ded themselves that they are reform

name excites as much interest and
curiosity today as it ever did. Not to

afforded. 1t would be shame to miss
the grand revival ofssThe Black Crook"

Is probably the grandest spectacle ever
presented and the story Of romance
it tells is of thrilling interest. The

they are earnestly and cordially invit.
ed to show up at the coming session
in Crookston. There are several mat
tiers of Importance to all of us that
ought to be taken up, and self interest
should bring every editor in the terri

slack time in a business way, the edi-

Jobbers Are COMPLAINING.

The state railroad and warehouse
commission is receiving many letters
and complaints from commission men
and shippers relative 10 the recent or
der of the commission on the weight
of oats and barley. The commission
recently made formal order to the
effect that thirty-two pounds was the
only weight that would be recognized
as the official weight of oats.
Buyers in the country have been
taking thirty-three and thirty-four
pounds for a bushel In order to allow
for docking. This, the commission re-
fuses to sanction, holding that if there
was dirt in the grain a lower price
could be arranged, but that no change
could be made in the weight Grain
men and buyers are now demanding
a rule permitting dockage at the ter
minal points on oats and barley.
Such a rule does not exist at the pres
ent time, and there is no authority
for dockage at the terminals.
The commission has the matter I'M
der consideration, and If the grain in
terests of the state are generally in
favor of it, it is possible that the ter
minal dockage on oats and barley will
be authorized by the commission.
