One per cent of our popula-
ton owns practically SO per
cent of the wealth of the nation.
Our 100000 wage earners re-
ceive an average of but $500
per year. Nine-tenths of our
business men are VIGOROUSLY
failures. Our clergy receive
an average annual salary of
about $500: the average for ed
ucators is even lower. Of our
S. 10000 farmers, one-third are
tenants and the homes of one
third of the remaining two
thirds are mortgaged. Mr.. Call
makes a very gloomy showing,
and even though one believe
he has painted the picture too
darkly, observing men know
in the absence of statistics
that the situation is serious
enough to demand the thought
full consideration of patriotic
men.

Judging from the following,
taken from the DEVILS Lake
Journal, we take it that the
editor of that paper is not al
together pleased with the ap-
pointment of B. F. Spalding to
the supreme court bench.
"Not because he was the best
man for the position, not be-
cause the people wanted him,
not because he was by any
manner of figuring entitled to
it, but because he wanted it
and was able, by means which
should have been above a man
seeking a position, to force the
governor to appoint him, B. F,
Spalding was yesterday named
to till the vacancy in the su-
preme court bench caused by
the resignation of Judge Enge-
rud. The appointment is a sig
nal triumph for the scuttle-fish
statesmen whose motto is to
get there and stay there" The
only excuse advanced for tho
appointment of Spalding is
that Mckenzie opposed him.
Has it come to that pass in
North Dakota that even the
supreme court must suffer be.
cause Mckenzie opposes some
man? The truth OF the matter
probably il that what has been
done is just what Mckenzie
wanted. Spalding is out of the
way, has job where he is
forced to keep his mouth shut,
all done at the expense of the
democratic party which will be
held responsible for his atti.
tude on the bench-a respon-
sibility the republican party of
this state has never cared to
rotten as it is.
