ADJUSTMENTS
WHEN JOHNNY COMES MARCH.
ING HOME.

During the period known as the CT
vii War {; new field has been found by
Stanislaus STANCE and Julien Edwards
for comic opera endeavor. That it IS
a productive field for the manager
and fascinating one for the music
loving public is proven by the una-
quivocal success which has attended
the new comic opera When Johnny
Comes Marching Home" The story,
music and scenic environment are all
strongly suggestive of the military life
in 1864 and 'G5. The hu1nor of the
story finds expression in the ludicrous
situations and witty dialogue without
once descending to horse play or in
any way referring, in the least degree,
to arouse party or sectional feeling.
Mr. Edwards, the composer has deft-
ly interviewer strains OF the war songs
and negro melodies, popular at that
time, into his score, SO that the mill
tary and patriotic atmosphere is pre-
served to a remarkable degree
When Johnny Comes Marching
Home" will be the attraction at the

BEYOND the Hills,

Beyond the Hills.
All the world is still before you, little
boy.
You are in the fair, green valley where
the sun
Lights the smooth and pleasant paths
down which you run;
Out beyond the hills you dimly see is
care,
Far beyond those heights are burdens
you must bear.
But beyond those uplands also there is
joy,
Little boy.
There are heartachcs that await you,
little boy,
And those roads that in the distance
wind away
Lead to labor and contention and dis
may;
Stones are waiting there to bruise your
weary feet,
Foes are ambushed there whom you
Will have to meet,
But upon those hard roads also there is
joy.
Little boy.
You are innocent and care free. little
boy.
And out .yonder there is knowledge you
AT the. price of many efforts and much
pain:
You must toll and you must suffer ere
you learn,
You may never from beyond those hills
return,
But be glad, for yonder love lies, too,
and JOY,

Dinner At WALDORF
ASTORIA HONQRS
COMMISSION
Event for Chinese Visitors in
New York will Equal
Any Ever Given.

New York, Feb 1.-THE imperial
high commissioners from the Chinese
empire, Tuan Fang and Tai Hung Chi,
entered promptly upon the program
outlined for their second day in New
York, notwithstanding the fact that
both Of them were somewhat fatigued
after their strenuous day of yesterday,
In the course of which they visited
several public institutions, held recep-
lions, were entertained at dinner and
lunch, and received great number Of
their own countrymen, who called to
pay their respects.
Today's program included visits 10
industrial establishments, public
works and other places of interest.
The commissioners displayed the
greatest interest in all they saw, and
ceaselessly piled their guides with
questions.
The dinner at the Waldorf-Astoria
tonight in honor of the commissioners
promises to be highly interesting af-
fair. The arrangements and accept
ances of invitations are so complete as
to make it safe to say that the dinner
will be In numbers, in appointments,
and in the character of the guests and
the hosts, as brilliant an occasion rs
New York has had since the honors

EVOLUTION, NOT REVOLUTION.

Just at this time when the farmers
are having the annual crop of infor-
nation dealt out to them, much of it
on the matter of diversifying, it is
we'll to calmly consider the question
from practical standpoint.
Let it be understood, however, that
The Evening Times believes in diversl-
flying. 1t is the salvation of the next
generation if not of the present one.
But as no man, however much he
may love the flag, can live up to the
standard of patriotism set by the
Fourth of July orator, so must the
question of diversified farming be
taken.
Diversiication needs to be an agr:-
cultural evolution and not revolu-
ton. Old methods can not be rudely
thrown aside and new and untried
ones substituted.
The man who has been growing
wheat on a section OF land can not
afford this year to SOW alfalfa or
clover on the entire tract.
Neither can he afford to quit rails
ing wheat and flax and jump at once
into the dairy business.
The change must come gradual
The grasses may be profitably sown
on part of the land and sufficient
live stock fed during the year to con-
sumo the products that do not find q
ready market except by being fed to
stock.
1t is not the idea to abandon grain
raising, but to get larger yields on
smaller areas and leave part of the
farm for the production of feed crops.
In this way the fertility will be put
back into the soil, and the land will
improve in quality.
The impression sometimes exists
that those who favor Investigation,
especially those who strongly advo-
cate stockraising, are encouraging the
stopping of grain growing, and are
thus insisting upon the farmers adopt
ing that which is impractical and I'M
businesslike.
Farmers recognize the fact that they
must do something, but they can not
see their way clear to cease the meth
DDS that have made them rich and
learn anew those whose returns are
unproven.
But once the idea of gradual
change, with the final results a mix
ture of grain growing and stock
raising, they will be more ready to
enter upon the beginning.

ALABAMA POLITICS
BID FAIR TO Be
RIGHT WARM
Two Senator'S and Two Alter
mates to Be Chosen at
Primaries.

Montgomery, Ala, Feb. 2.-Under
the plan recently adopted by the state
Democratic committee for the NOM
ination of state and federal officers at
the primary this summer, 1t appears
as if a lively race for United States
senator will be precipitated. Two
senator's are to be chosen at the pri-
maries because OF the fact that the Ala
bama legislature meets but once in
four years, while the term of Senator
John T. Morgan expires next year, and
that of Senator Edmund w. Pettus
ends two years later. The plan adopt
ed not only provides that successors
to the two senators shall be chosen
at the primary, but it also makes pro-
vision for the selection of two alter
nate senator's, who are to be appointed
by the governor in the event that Sen
ators Morgan and Pottus, or their sue
cessors, should die or resign. This
arrangement is unique departure in
American politics.
Until the adoption of this plan it
was generally taken for granted that
Senators Morgan and Pettus would be
without opposition for reelection, but
it is now almost certain that both OF
them will have opponents, and that in
addition there will be several in the
race for alternate senator, this latter
contest being the direct result of the
age of the two present senator's
Among those who are mentioned as
probable candidates against Morgan
and Pettus are former Governor JOS
eph F. Johnston of Birmingham, for
mer Governor William C. Oates of
Montgomery, former Congressman
Richard H. Clarke of Mobile, General
Rufus N. Rhoades of Birmingham, and
John B. Knox of Admission. The race
for alternate senator also is beginning
to attract attention. William c. Fits
of Mobile, former attorney general of
the state, is the only announced can
didate SO far for this honor, but among
the names mentioned are those of
Congressman John c. Bankhead and
State Superintendent of Education
Isaac W. Hill.

His Pretext For Failure.

department was talking to reporter

My work would be more difficult"

sible, were it not that every man in
the world is policeman. Every man
watches his brother man and knows
that his brother man watches him in

sional Lecoqs is kept down. Thus
there was suburban grocer who
took his clerk to a saloon one day
after closing time and purchased a
good many glasses Of beer: Then af-
ter he began to feel talkative and

What reason is there that wheat
can not be made into the finished
products in Grand Forks just as we'll
as it can in Minneapolis or Chicago?
The same kind of plants can be built
and the same kind of machinery in
stalled and the same kind of mechan-
les employed.
There is one groundless reason
the scarcity of labor.
Just what this country needs to
keep it in economic balance is a great
army of men who consume and do
not produce. They would make
market for the cabbage and potatoes
and beef and poultry that the farm
ers could produce with profit if they
had nearby market.
If the plant is built the labor neces-
sary to run it will come. They will
add to the population and the wealth
of the city. They will increase bust
ness without necessarily increasing
competition.
The cost of living will adjust itself
to the changed conditions. Making the
market for food supplies will induce
the growing of these supplies and as
the supply is increased the price will
be lowered But the North Dakota
farmers will be supplying the market
instead of those of Michigan and Ohio.
Grand Forks needs factories and
needs them on large scale similar
to the cotton mills of Lowell and the
shoe factories of BroctOn and the silk
mills of Patterson.
| They can be had.

LET US HAVE FACTORIES.

This city should be the greatest
manufacturer of bread and kindred
4roducts in the world.
One of the essentials of manu-
featuring city is that it should be
near the raw material used.
Grand Forks is in the very heart
Of the bread producing region. 1t has
the raw material at ready hand.
1t can manufacture just as cheaply
as anywhere else in the United States
Every food product made from
wheat can be manufactured here
But it must be on a large scale if
tt becomes famous, and the name and
reputation of a product have much to
do with the universal demand.
Two years ago the Crawford Broth
ers of Hagerstown, Maryland, were
manufacturing a bicycle that was ac-
kRowledged far superior in workman
ship to the Rambler The Maryland
Arm has long since died, the referee
In bankruptcy administering on the
corpse, while the other has its name
attached to one of the standard makes
Of automobiles which has been the
outgrowth of the bicycle.
There was a reason for this. The
Maryland company was composed of
men who were expert mechanics, but
they did not have business foresight
enough to see farther than the local
held.
Had they employed as high grade
BUSINESS men in putting their product
on the market of the country, as they
employed mechanical skill in building
their machines, they would have been
today the leading firm of the country
in their line.
Enterprises can not be successfully
launched with expectation of deriving
. support from local territory.
II the sale OF Cream OF Wheat or
& any Of the. other brands of breakfast
foods were limited to the trade of the
territory adjacent to the place of man
ufacture, the proprietors would long
fnce have been starved to death.
e It is therefore useless to advocate
the establishment of q plant in this
city to manufacture wheat into bread
products and have the sales limited
70 the territory east Of Minot and
.nDsh Of Fargo.
There must be q trade extending
from the pine swamps Of Maine to the
fzbsrcle curing breeses Of Califor-
-. and from the crocodile-infected
