THE PUBLISHERS GRAFT.

Until the beneficiaries of the pub
fishers graft begin to make few con-
tributions to the conscience fund, It
will not do for any of the grafters to
dare" senator's and members to put
stop to the business. 1t is enough
to know that the grafters got $27, OOO,-
600 of the peoples money in one year.
There is no guess work about it. Who
ever cares to read the Postmaster Gen.
erals report for last year will find it
there stated. The first thing in order
is the return of this money by the
grafters. After that Congress, which
is never in hurry about doing things,
may decide to change the rate on sec
ond-class mail matter newspapers
and magazines,) so that some of the
grafters who have had their hands
deep in the public pocket these many
years, all the while crying out stop
thief" will be obliged to do their share
toward wiping out the postal deficit
The first thing for the grafters to do
is to put something substantial in the
conscience fund; the next thing is for
Congress to act. and after that perhaps
the government can afford to go to one
cent postage.

ALWAYS AT THE FRONT.

North Dakota is invariably at the
front. No other state in the Union is
in such state of preparedness in the
matter of drainage. How few people,
even in the valley, knew two months
ago that the general government had
made survey of the valley under, the
authority of few lines quietly insert
ed in the agricultural appropriation
bill by one of our senator's The Agri-
cultural Department will have the blue
prints of this survey ready by May list,
and will turn them over to the valley
counties. The next legislature should
pass a feasible drainage law. making
districts of the valley and otherwise
put the state in shape to do business
with Uncle Sam.
1t is quite certain that if the Senate
had waited for the House to pass a
drainage law, ducks would continue to
be the principal crop in many parts of
the Red River valley for years to come.
The Senate certainly does things, and
1t is not inclined to be "afraid of the
cars"

This is the great draw back so far
in this city, but it must be remembered
that skilled labor seeks work in its
particular line, and once the enter
prise is established, the help will
come.
But the cost of the labor will still
depend largely on the cost of living.
If fuel and food and clothing are more
expensive than they are under the
same conditions elsewhere then the
cost of production is more and the
finished product will have more trou-
BILE to maintain foothold in a COM
petitive market
With all the stories to the contrary,
the cost Of living in this country is not
greater than in any place outside the
south where food grows spontaneous
~, where houses need be nothing
more than good shades, and where
clothing is a matter of modesty rather
than of comfort. But under these latter
conditions life takes ON that sluggish,
indolent characteristic that is fatal to
all industrial enterprise, and the eX-
Cessive heat is far more of a money
loser to the employer of labor than is
the excessive cold. There can be pro-
lection from the latter but none is
possible from the former.
In climate devoid of humidity
than in one with lower thermometer
but with more moisture. People in
this latitude need only protection from
the cold. Elsewhere they need it from
both cold and moisture. The damp
ness is SO injurious to leather that the
cost in shoes is matter OF comment
by those who come from such CHI
mates. Fuel costs but little more, be-
cause the dryness of the atmosphere
does not cause it to penetrate the
houses as does that which is ladened
with moisture. The food supply need
be no greater because much of the
substantiates of life can be grown in
limitless quantities at our very doors.
Under these conditions it would
seem that manufacturing can be done
cheaper here than in almost any other
place.
If it can, there should be factories
for other lines, not to compete with
those already here, but in different
classes.
Grand Forks can become a great
wood manufacturing city if it improves
the opportunities it now has.

prisees will locate where they will be
accessible to the University trade.
This would of course build up the
city, but it would be to the lasting
injury Of the men who are now per-
manently located in the business part
of the city, and who have built sub
stantial business blocks which they
cannot afford to abandon.
But If street car line could be sue
cessfully operated between the two,
the distance would be insignificant,
and the trade would remain where It
belongs-in the business part of the
city.
This done, another scheme would be
assured, which was the reason for the
location of the University where it
now is. 1t has always been contended,
and with considerable weight, that an
educational institutional should be re-
moved from the business locations, so
that the students would be surrounded
only by that which is educational and
which tends to keep the mind directly
upon the work of the class room. True
it is contended that this method has
made the average student bookish and
to some extent cramped his ability to
grasp every day problems and, worse
yet, has inculcated in him an aversion
for that which is not of the learned
professions.
But when all these are weighed It
will be found that they do not enter
into the merits of the present condi-
tons here, and that the only thing is
to provide some means by which the
University and the city can be put in
easy touch.
Hundreds of students would board
and room in the city, than now do, were
they certain they could get to and
from the University without two-mile
tramp over the prairie
This would not iniure'th the resources
of the institution, as the states makes
nothing on the dormitory scheme, it
being merely for the accommodation
of the students who have no other
place to live.
The University has become too i'm
portant to be cut out OF the considera-
lions of the city, and something must
be done that will permanently relieve
the conditions that have existed dur
ing the last few weeks, and against
which the transit company has fought
so heroically.

UNIVERSITY TRAFFIC.

The battle with the elements which
the street car company has been COM
PEELED to wage during the last few
weeks, has caused some serious dis
cussion of the imperative demand for
quick and reliable communication be-
tween the city and the University.
1t is conceded that mistake was
made in locating the institution so far
from the central part of the CITY, But
now that it is done, there can be but
one course, and that is to adjust cir
cumstances to the conditions.
The city does not desire to prosper
from the institution which has it's
home in our midst. Neither would the
citizens permit the excessive taxation
Of the students by the business inter-
ests, even if the latter could do so,
which is absurd.
But there is a certain amount of
legitimate business that the city is en-
titled to, and which it can only main
tain by means of quick communication.
There are approximately seven hun
dred students at the institution, and
with the faculty and their families
probably a hundred more. These peo-
pie must be fed.
The time when students lived on a
glass of water, a loaf of back-num-
bered bread and vivid Imagination
are things of the past They do not,
as rule, have Belshazzaran feast
every day in the week, but they live on
good, healthy, substantial food in
abundance.
1t is safe to estimate the living ex-
penses of the average University resi-
dent at fifty cents per day, so that
the daily trade of that institution is
worth four hundred dollars to the
business men of the city. Twelve
thousand dollars month, or more
than one hundred thousand dollars
during the SCHOLARSHIP year, came
from that one source into the business
channels of the city.
With the enormous increase in at :
tendance which is certain to come in
the near future. the needs will be
more.
Now, what effect will rapid COM
munication between the city proper
and the University have upon the bust
ness interests of the city? AS It now
is, the University forms community
by itself. If there is not some means
of reaching the city, business enter

GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY.

The building of a wood working
plant in this city emphasizes the con-
tention of The Evening Times that
this line Of industries would be paying
propositions in this city &
In the considerations of manufac-
turing enterprises, one feature must
be borne in mind. For local trade
that will but succeed which is bulky
and heavy for transportation, and for
the foreign, or distant trade, that
which is light and compact.
1t is a reasonable proposition that
no dealer will ship heavy wooden
products from the great manufacture
Ing cities of Michigan and Ohio if he
could get them a thousand miles near
or home at the same cost of manufac-
turing. The dealers in this state will
hardly pay the freight on stock from
Detroit when they can get it from the
mill which has located in this city at
the same price and for less freight.
Then it would seem that if the fin
ished product could be prepared from
for the same that it can elsewhere,
this would be good point for the
location of manufactures.
This city is nearer the present tim
Der sources of Minnesota than any
other city extensively engaged in the
manufacturing of lumber products. 1t
has largely the advantage of water
transportation from the timber region
to the city-the cheapest transporta-
ton in the world, and on which there
!. has never been merger since the
time of Noah.
III The cost of shipping the raw ma
terial to the factory is one Of the'large
! items that enters into the cost of the
finished product.

terial supply and has the means of
cheaper transportation than any other
city now having wood manufacturing
enterprises. s

AGE LIMIT IS RAISED
PUPILS BETWEEN 6 AND 81 TO
COUNT IN SCHOOL APPoRTION-
MENT HEREAFTER.

In figuring school attendance for the
purpose Of apportioning the funds, pu-
pills between the ages Of and p years
will be counted this year. Under the
old law all from s to 21 years were
counted. The change is made by the
new code.
s AS the code took effect March l, after
the school year was more than half
over, the attorney general was asked for
an opinion as to which basis should be
used: He holds that the code provi-
sion should govern. The effect will be
to reduce the number of pupils reported,
but not the amount distributed, as the
ratio will be increased.
The attorney general has also given
an opinion on the !. question of high
school examinations. The law allows
county superintendent to name assist
ants for every four townships, SO. as to
make examinations more convenient
Some requests have been made for au
thority to appoint more assistants and
hold examinations for smaller territory
but the opinion holds that superintend
ents have no discretion. They must
follow the law strictly.
