Dead beats can pay their debts 81 they

eneotuaily as a healthy public senti-
ment Several men have lately been dis
charged because they are habituai dead
beats. There is something wrong with
the man who spenGs money on foolish
ness and expects to beat the world out OF
a living for his wife and children: this
course is an injustice to tradesmen and
the man himself would be better off II
compelled to spend his money for dry
goods and groceries instead OF whlskey
and poker. There IS too much sympathy
FOR the dead beat which he creates by
saying that times are hard, when the
facts are that he is shiftless and lazy
There are exceptions to this rule. but
they are rare There is too much buy
ing on credit with no intention OF pay
ing. A dead beat list should be pr'eted
and posted IN all public places. car be-
ing taken that no really honest m4r Is
branded. People are willing to want on
any man who tries to pay, but they have
lost all patience with the dishonest ones
who buy everything possible pu credit
and never expect to pay. This IS down
right dishonesty, and must be stopped
The men who do It should be punished

Love is an right Whlie it lasts and can
be depended upon, but we have such
sentimental notions on the subject that
We demand great deal Of 1t after it is
dead. when man dies his body is
buried. and we expect no more OF him,
but It too often happens that after love
is dead, we expect as much OF y as ever.
Love Is a picnic; do not expect It to clear
up the dishes and carry them home. The
trouble with love is the sentiment sur
rounding a. Il IS a very serious thing
while II lasts. and sweeps everything
before 1t. but after Il is over, there Is
nothing bat harmless ashes. Women
make more OF the ashes tnan men do;

Is as water extinguishes fire. Let an

JUDICIAL TIMBER,

Bismarck Tribune: The resigna-
ton of Judge Young of the supreme
court will take effect August IS, and
it is likely that John Knauf, republi-
can candidate for the succession will
be appointed to fill the unexpired term.
This is the precedent established in
the appointment of Judge Engerud, on
the theory that to appoint another man
to the place for few months would
be unfair. There has been some dis
cnssion in the state of Mr.. Knauf, and
his record seems to be that of young
man who has achieved success through
his own efforts and by natural worth
and energy. Given a lawyer of good
grounding in the law. judicial fair
ness and the desire to do right and
Dut him on his mettle, and the Tribune
Il satisfied he will do the best he can

to keep up the high standard of the
court. Judges. do not always spring
full armed from the head of justice.
Some of the foremost district judges
of this tate were comparatively I'M
known as to their qualifications at the
time of their election, and they have
proven wise and sensible administra-
tors of justice. Brilliant pleaders at
the bar have often proven disappoint-
ments as members of the courts before
which they were wont to practice. On
the other hand. men who are studious,
fair. and hard working, have the op-
portunity, by the exercise of their rea-
son and by reference to the mass of
legal precedent, wisely and sensibly
to interpret the law. Mr.. Knauf has
been put upon his mettle in this mat
ter of the judgeship, and the Tribune
believes the bench and bar of this
state will do justice to him in every
way to the tests that may be put upon
him in the future.

H. d. ALERT Of Langdon, democratic
national committeeman and member
of the state central committee, was a
guest at the Hotel Dacotah Sunday
evening and left Monday for Minot
where. together with other members
of the state central committee. he will
perfect the preliminary plans for the
state convention to be held in that city,
Thursday, Aug. 2. Mr.. ALERT and B.
S. Brynjolfson. chairman of the state
committee, were engaged in discus
sion of party politics and campaign
plans when accosted by the writer.
1t is expected that the convention
at Minot will be one of the most en-
thusiastic and largely attended of any
held by the party in the state.
Mr.. ALERT is a delegate from Cava-
lter county and states that the full
delegation from that county, IS In
number, will be present at the cOnven-
ton.
Grand Forks has representation
of 20 and it is expected that fully
double that number will go to Minot
for the convention according to Chair.
man Brynjolfson.
Whether or not the committee on
resolutions will embody in the resOlu-
tons they present to the convention
for adoption, the endorsement of Will
liam Jennings Bryan for the presi-
dency. is question but it is probable
that such will be the case. 1t Is quite
likely that some enthusiastic demo-
crat who is anxious to attract atten-
ton for himself will spring such a
resolution and that the convention will
endorse 1t. Both the gentlemen re-
ferred to are favorable to Mr.. Bryan
but it seems to be the opinion of many
loyal democrats that his cause has
been done more injury than good by
the publicity given his possibility as
| a candidate. MIR. Bryan has a strong
position in the hearts of North Dakota
democrats, judging from the signs of
the time.
1t is difficult thus early to forecast
the probable nominee for the COVER
nOrship on the democratic ticket. Both
the gentlemen referred to avoided this
subject in good natured way by say
Ing that Is for the convention to de-
eide. 1t is undoubtedly true that the
lamb has already been selected for the
slaughter and that he is willing, but
who this is, remains to be discov-
cred. 1t looks like Honest john
Burke Of Devils Lake. Many promi-
nent democrats of the state will leave
for the convention today and there
will be some wire pulling, it is ex-
pected. just enough to give the gath
ering the appearance Of a real live
political convention.

HE WILL ACCEPT.

No one doubts that when President
Roosevelt declared he would not be
a candidate for second term he
meant precisely what he said. The
Evening Times has reason to know
that the president is not infatuated
with the position that it is his earnest
desire to retire to private life at the
end of his present term and after,
possibly, trip abroad to devote his
ripening years to literature. He has.
served his country in various capa-
cities, and served it we'll, for almost
twenty years, and long since found
that the life of public servant who
accomplishes anything is not only not
"a bed of roses" but that it requires
almost superhuman energy and is
filed always with annoyances and
most of the time with heartaches that
an exacting public, led by a heartless
press. know nothing of. The presi-
dency has no attractions of the CLAM
orous kind for Roosevelt. With him
it is solemn duty, full of perplexi-
ties.
Yet Theodore Roosevelt, above all
else, is a. patriot, an ardent American,
a lover of justice. He has never
shirked responsibility, and being
man of undoubted courage and pos
sessing the complete confidence of his
countrymen, We do not for a single
moment doubt that should his party
convention in 1908 call for a continue
alton of his services as president of
the United States he would respond,
not with the alacrity of a self-seeker
or one dazzled by the sheen and tinsel
OF official place-the Turing incentives
of SO many men whose ambitions never
pass beyond the supericialities of
political life.
Mr.. Roosevelt's acceptance would
be prompted by the spirit that moved
him to action in the Spanish American
war, that urged him forward as the
towering figure in the peace confer
ence at Portsmouth, that inspired him
to challenge the corporate selfishness
OF the country and that will continue
to the end of his term as the leader
OF MS party to animate his course as
the champion of the highest order of
public and private integrity in all the
walks of life.
Throughout his official career he has
never failed to fulfill the expectations
OF the people; he will not disappoint
them in 1908.

LANDER e co. CELEBRATES

celebrating it's twenty-third birthday
today, and while such events have &C.
cured twenty-five times before, they
are getting to place where they in
dictate the prosperity Of the city as we'll
as the firm. Mr.. Lander, who is the
principal factor of the firm, came to
this city in a rather quiet manner.
While mere boy he was employed
by a grain firm of Chicago and was
sent to the northwest to look over the
crop prospects. He became impressed
with the possibilities of the country
and decided to locate. He did not have
dollar at the time but opened an
Office on North Third street near the
old Great Northern depot. About a
year after that time the name was
changed to the E. ]. Lander company
which 1t has retained ever since. Later
the office was removed to the old post
office building where it remained till
1t was moved to its present commodi-
