impotence commands the winds and
holds the helm the ship is safe. The
marshaling, as at present of conflicting
forces in national congress. is porten-
tious, much resembling conditions
which existed in 40 and so. I think
in Bottineau county We are unit for
home rule and good government; the
great danger is that party preference
may run away with the better judg-
ment of the people. I would not
advise voting for man in opposition
to the administration, but I would
vote for any competent person who
would stand by Roosevelt and his pol
icy, for think he is brave and able
man, good and true, and the people are
with him. I fancy he might have got
ten million by corruption if he mad
not been like Washington and others

The press is great power, and a
weighty responsibility rests upon all
editors. They should be free and fear
less champions for the right, but as to
what is right or what is wrong, they
must be the judges, and the people
are not slow themselves in that regard.
Duplicity never pays in the long run
but you can take stock in plain every
day honesty and be sure of receiving
paying dividend every time. Fur
thermore I would kindly suggest that
editors print all articles left for publ
cation with their proper captions and
without any alterations. except neces-
sary corrections, or otherwise lay
them aside. which I presume would
only be common justice and courtesy
to both reader and writer.

For some time past President Kill

field. Minnesota. has had in mind a
visit to Norway by a number of the
students of the school. They have for
years had very fine brass band at
ST. Olaf, numbering sixty pieces, now
'undar the leadership of Prof. MeI;us
Christianson. a highly edcuated music
ian, formerly of Minneapolis Last
summer when the student chorus from
the University of Christiania visited
Northfeld, this brass band received
them at the railroad depot with the
martial National hymn of Norway,
and so grandly was it played that the
visitors declared the band equal to
any they had ever beard. The idea
of visit to Norway was then first
suggested and has now taken tangible
form inasmuch as preparations are in
progress to arrange all the details of the
journey. The band leaves New York
on board the Scandinavian American
line steamer Oscar End on June 1 under
the personal supervision of Prof. Kill
dahl. and will give their first concert
in Christiania on the 4th of July if
possible From there the tour will
continue by rail to Throndhjem via
Eidsvold and Hamar and at Thrond-
hjem a chartered steamer will take
the boys around the coast visiting
Christianssund, Aalesund, Molde, Ber-
gen. Stavanger, Arendal, Skien. Laur
vik, Frederikshald. Frderiksstad, Hor.
ten, Drammen and finally again land
at Christiania
There is posi- bility that Copen-
hagen will also be visited before the
return, which will take place on July

prepare for the final arrangements on
this side.
Before leaving, the st. Olaf music
ians will be heard in st. Paul, Mimi
eapolis, Chicago and New York and
possibly one or two other places along
the route if arrangements can be
made.
The itinerary in Norway will be SC
arranged, that a great many scenes Of
historical interest and natural beauty
will be seen and Prof Kildahl who
will accompany the students through.
out the whole trip expects that they
will greatly benefit by this visit tc

are all born in the U. S., possibly

The Bottineau County Farmers
Mutual Hail and Fire Insurance
Company has Completed Its
Organization.


pany is now ready for business and it
is very fitting that we should endeavor
to place before our readers little in.
formation regarding this excellent or
ganization. This company is entirely
local in its nature and has been organ
lied on CAREFUL and economical basis.
No money goes out of the county.
There are no high salaries to pay. The
hail loss of last season awakened our
farmers to realization of the neces-
sity for some protection and this COM
pany is the result. Its purpose is not
to compensate nail sufferers to the
value Of the entire crop but to protect
them against actual loss of labor and
seed investment. The maximum
insurable value of crop has therefore
been placed at Sc. 90 per acre. In case
of total loss this amount would suffice
to tide over the affairs of the insured
until he could secure another crop. y
The liability of the insured under
this plan can never exceed five per
cent of his own insurance. For exam
pie: John Doe insures 100 acres at $8
per acre. His premium would be five
per cent or $50. For this amount be
gives his note to the company. The
note bears no interest and is not nego-
table. If no loss occurs the note will
he cancelled on December 1st aud Mr..
Doe has paid nothing but his mem
bership fee for the protection he has
enjoyed. If q loss should occur he
would be assessed for his share but in
no case is he liable for more than the
five per cent Of the amount of his in
surance or in John Doe g case, $50.
In case of loss by hail an adjuster
will inspect the premises and estimate
the loss. If his finding is not satisfac-
tory to the. insured then each party
will select disinterested person and
the two will agree upon third. The
award of this committee is final.
I-s The directorate of the company, has
been we'll chosen and every section of
the county has been represented. The
following are the directors and officers
of the company: President. David
Clark. Bottineau vice president, Grant
Trimble, Wetshope; treasurer, 1. R.
parkway, Bottineau; secretary T, NJ.
Darlington, Bottineau: directors, Chas.
F. Shong, Russell; Grant T1imble,

City: Stephen >Westacott and David
Clark. Bottineau.
Local agents will be appointed in
various parts of the county and where
ever possible farmers will be secured
as agents. Anyone desiring territory
should write to the General Solicitor,

be written this year We hope such
will be the case. 1t is worthy move
