5000 head of cows and heifers to the
U. s. government, at Fort Yates.
This stock will be delivered and dis
| tributed to the Indians by the govern
ment agent in fulflllment of treaty
contract entered into with the Indians
several years ago.
The whole number of cattle to be de-
livered this year is $4,000 head, Of
which the Standing Rock agency gets
5000, the balance to be distributed in
the other agencies.
The firm of Badger & Parkins has
, the Standing Rock allotment and by
the conditions will deliver the cattle

Yates.
They have a large force of buyers
in the field now buying cattle and in
tend purchasing as many as possible
in the Mandan country and driving
them over. What cannot be bought
here will be purchased in eastern
Washington, shipped to Mandan and
driven from there.
This contract involves a quarter
million of dollars and when we con-
slider that it will be filled almost en-
tirely from the country tributary to
Mandan it win indicate in part the
great possibilities and wealth of the
Missouri slope country.
1t is to be hoped that the govern

stock thus provided and in time have
many herds of cattle of their own for

PROGRAMMES AT
A. c. CLASS DAY
FRESHMEN COLLEGE CLASS PRE-
SENT A FINE ENTERTAINMENT
AT A. c. LAST EvENlNG-oNE
ACT FARCE A FEATURE or THE
EXERCISES.

One Of the most interesting and
pleasing class day programmes ever
presented at the A. C. was given last
evening by the freshman college class.
In spite of the bad weather large au-
dience was present and thoroughly en-
Joyed the entertainment. The exer-
cises opened with an address by J. w.
Wheeler the president of the class.
Yesterday being the anniversary of
the birth of Louis Aggaziz Mr. Wheel
er very appropriately chose for the
subject of his oration the life Of the
we'll known naturalist on which he
spoke very interestingly.
The presidents address was followed
by an grafton by Peter Olson. The lat
ter had chosen for his subject The An
glo- Saxon. as the Race Determining
Civilization and his speech showed
deep thought and appreciation of his
topic. One of the most entertain
ing featuEes of the programme was the
Diary of Freshman which was given
by Thomas Lough. The speaker show
ed that he was a keen observer of
human nature and the diary describ-
ing the experiences of country youth
coming to the city hnd entering COL
lege was highly amusing Miss Ce-
celia Eyolfsson's defamation on a
Visit to the Sick was a well given
number. A pleasing vocal solo by
Miss Kathryn Great and an excellent
cornet solo by Mr.. Horner completed
the first half Of the programme
The second part of the evenings en-
tertainment consisted of one-act
farce entitled A Meeting of the Disci-
pline Committee. This represented a
meeting of the faculty, the registrar
and the eommandant, to consider the
rules governing the school. Com
plants were made of all the various
student bodies and matters thoroughly
discussed, the senior preparatory class
coming in for some severe criticism
AT the close the committee voted that
the freshman class was the perfection
of what students should be. The en-
tire performance was an excellent
take-off of the faculty and contained
many good hits.
At the close of the farce, the fresh
man orchestra rendered a pleasing
number.
A feature of the entertainment was
furnished by the members of the SEN
ior preparatory class, who occupied
the front seats in body and amused
themselves by throwing an occasional
lemon at the performers on the stage

Honesty and POLICY"

President Hadley, of Yale, pro-
tests against the old saw that hon
esty is the best policy" telling his
clever young men that the honesty
which is based on policy is not hon
esty at all. Of course, he is right.
But human nature is a mighty
curious institution, and society as
Pm aggregate has long ago discover
ed that the individual must be tested
by the standards set up by the
whole body. Laws are passed to
force people to be honest who
otherwise would not; and it is use
less to proclaim that you can't
make anybody honest by law" You
can prevent him from being active
ly, aggressively dishonest, which
serves the purpose of protecting So
ciety, even it does not develop an
ideal moral character. And after
nwhile honesty may become a habit
of mind, as the laws tend TO make
II habit of practice.

A Word for the Poor"

At first reading, the remarks of
= certain Rev. George w. Bicknell to
the Cambridge school board, at a
meeting held last week, were start
ling enough. 1T is a notorious
fact" he said, that our high
schools in Cambridge are for the
rich and prosperous and the poor
have no chance. We have teachers
on our force who will prophesy
six and eight months ahead that
a pupil is not going to keep up with
the class. They have no business
to do it. The city of Cambridge
should give the poor pupil chance
70 finish the course in the high
schools, if it takes ten years"
More reading discloses that the
clergyman by poor" pupils meant
The intellectually poor, the mentally
unprosperous. That, of course, re-
lieved the city of Cambridge of the
stigma of discriminating against
poverty of the material sort. Yet is
not the discrimination he means al
most as much to be deplored?
Why should not the dull scholars,
who certainly have as much right
to all the education they can absorb,
as the brilliant, be put back into
lower classes instead of dismissed
from the high school altogether? Is
it not a better service TO the state
TO bring a naturally slow-minded
boy or girl through to victory at
last than to turn out a half dozen
graduates who have had no struggle
10 get on?

Victimizing the Victims.

Any performance more strongly
suggestive at once of deep-seated
optimism and of utter lack of moral
fiber, than this robbery of a Pull
man sleeper's occupants would be
hard to imagine. 1t appears that
a Pullman on a Pennsylvania train
has been ransacked thoroughly, and
everything worth while that was
left to the passengers logged off.
This indicates prodigious optim-
ism on the part of the thief, be-
cause none other than an optimist
would dare assume that a man who
had been once held up by the Pull
man Company in it's corporate ca
pacity, and afterward by the por-
ter in his individual capacity, could
possibly have anything left on his
person worth taking. That. the
thief still had faith the mine was
worth working indicates his firm
conviction that the prosperity wave
is flowing stronger and fuller than
ever before. a man with such faith
ought to be able to remove noun
tains with the same ease that he
appears to have carried off watches.
jewelry, and the contents of suit
cases.
But while CHEEKY optimism is
suggested when the matter is viewed
in this phase, we cannot too strong
ly condemn the profundity Of
malevolence which alone could in
spire the robbery of the already
twice-robbed- From him that hath
not shall be taken even that which
he hath" would seem TO have been
written with this shameless case in
mind. Surely none other than a
moral idiot could be so degenerate,
so lost TO all sentiment of humani-
ty, so stepped in hatred of his kind,
as to rob the man who had Just paid
tribute to the sleeping car corpora
ton, and then to the porter. We
cannot believe that there is any
body extant so innately vicious as
this, and until more direct and un-
questionable evidence is at hand
shall firmly decline to believe that
there is any criminal capable of
such a thing. Some hOrrid mistake
must have been made.

man Island for a stay of two days,
he fatty refused. He said he was
a second cabin passenger because
he couldn't be a first. He was will
ing to have his temperature taken,
but declared that discrimination
was being shown, and that because
he had come in the second cabin
was no reason why he should not,
as an American citizen, be treated
in precisely the same way as per-
sons who arrived in the first cabin.
some of whom were not American
citizens. he defied anyone to re-
move him from the ship by force,
and nobody attempted it. The last
we heard of him he was still a
boarder on the Havana.
On the whole. it seems arbitrary
and not altogether sensible to dis
eliminate by way of the cabin and
not of the personal equation. DR..
Doty has said that first cabin pas
sengers whose references and stand
ing were satisfactory, and who were
responsible persons, were allowed to
go ashore when the ships locked.
Then why not a second cabin man
who fulfilled the requirements?
Certainly Mr.. Hotchkiss was a re-
sponsible person and his standing
might easily have been proven sat
isfactory." His point that first cabin
passengers not American citizens at
all were passed without question is
well taken.

America receives with a Joy not
unmixed with hilarity the news that
the long standing dispute between
the United States and Turkey with

so. That is, it is rather obscurely

A RefOrm-But Not for Us.

Justice as a means of making men
better rather than hammering them
into the rut of crime is finely IL
Illustrated by one of the articles in
yesterdays magazine section of this
paper. 1t is there recounted how
n police court magistrate in St.
Louis, William Jefferson Pollard,
has received congratulatory adj
dresses from the temperance party
of the Swedish parliament and an
impressive group of English COM
moners. The occasion was nothing
more than a successful method of
reforming men brought into this
mans court as drunkards.
AS with Judge Lindsay's juvenile
reform work in Denver, Judge Pol
lard has no elaborate system. Re
lance is placed mainly upon the per-
sonal sympathy of the magistrate,
and watchfulness over the accused
after being released. Briefly, the
court frees the prisoner on condi-
tion that he keep sober, and in or
der to help him avoid temptation,
the court receives his pledge that

ten the practice into its law and
various cities of this country, Eng
land, Ireland, Scotland, and Sweden
have adopted it. The report is
everywhere the same-that such dis.
erection on the part of the court
