Farm Help scarce

Everybody must be having something
to do and are very busy or else they don't
like the work OF farm said farmer
the other day, who was hunting for a
half dozen men to dig potatoes. There is
cry for help among the farmers from all
quarters and they are paying exhorbtant
prices for good men to help them secure
their crops. but for some unaccountable
reason many men prefer to remain in the
city and catch an odd job now and then,
quite frequently getting none at all, rather
than 90 into the rural districts.
A farmer said recently that out of a
dozen men he approached in this city there
was only one who showed up to work It
his place at Sl.z5 day. The farmers
think they are being held up.

THE SITUATION IN REGARD TO
JAPAN.

There is a wide difference between
the views of congress and the pre-
sumed wishes of the Pacific coast
people, in regard to the adjustment
of the pending questions with Japan.
Senator Dubois said last week that
what the Pacific coast wants." as he
understood it, is the exclusion of
japanese laborers and coolies from
the United States and their territor-
les and insular possessions and the
District of Columbia, to be effective
January 1, 1905" as embodied in Sen
ator Culberson's resolution. What
both houses of congress have voted
is that, whenever the president shall
be satisfied that passports issued by
any foreign government to its citi-
zens to go to any country other than
the United States, or to any insular
possession of the United States, or
the Canal Zone" are being used to
enable the holders to enter the CON
tinental territory of the United States
to the detriment of labor conditions
therein" he may refuse to permit"
the holders to enter the United States
from such other country or from the
Canal Zone. This leaves these pass
ports good in any case for all our
outlying territories and dependencies
for Hawaii and the Philippine Is
lands-but gives to the president the
power of deciding whether they are
good or not for admission to the Unit
ed States, upon the ground of detri-
ment to our labor conditions"
The wishes of Japan in this regard
are also of some importance. The
reports from Tokyo on this point are
confused. The elder statesmen and
the Japanese government are said to
be waiting patiently, and with tran
quill minds, for defined and legal con-
ditions to be reached for their judg-
ment, whereas the popular japanese
feeling is said to disclose some signs
of dissatisfaction.
The decision reached by congress
Is in the nature of contingent COM
promise Under this compromise the
japanese are free to come and go in
our islands in Asia and in the Pacific
Ocean, but the admission of Japanese
laborers to this country is made SUBJ
ject to the judgment of the president.
We do not recall quite similar basis
for treaty negotiations, and the final
views of the japanese government in
regard to it will be received with
great interest.

NOTHING IN THE CHARGES
Coroner Gilbertson Says That Charges
of Negligence In Case of the De.
ceased Travelling Man F. E. Davis,
Are False.

With reference to the charge of
negligence against the coroner of
Crary and the Crary people as made in
the Fargo Forum, to the effect that
they had been very lax in their hand
ling of the remains and belongings of
F. E. Davis the well known Fargo
travelling man. Coroner Gilbertson Of
Devils Lake is very wroth. He is of
the opinion that the charges are who'll
ly uncalled for.
Mr.. Gilbertson says he held an
inquest and that the body was turned
over to Undertaken Gle who prepared
it for shipment just as quick as It
was possible to do so, and that the
people of Crary did all they could in
the matter. Mr.. Gilbertson took
charge of the personal effects of the
deceased consisting of $63.93 in cash,
watch, 5000 mile book, trunk checks,
and Eagle lodge receipts. These he
forwarded to the widow at Fargo as
soon as he reached Devils Lake. At
the time of the death, trains were run
ming off schedule. Another thing the
Fargo friends of the deceased seemed
to have overlooked, is that but one
train, No. 6, makes stops at Crary.

FOB THE TEACHER.

1t is proverbial that teachers in
our public schools are inadequately
paid. Some provision for the old age
OF those who stick to the business
through active life is almost duty
of the state. It certainly should be
reckoned privilege to be able t.
work out an effective plan for that
result There has been much discus
sion of late on the question of reserv-
ing a trifle of each teachers salary
month by month and using to accu-
mulate teachers annuity fund from
which those shall be aided who teach
for 80 years or who pay in 80 INSTALL
ments. Those are most likely to OBJ
ject to this altogether trivial contri-
button who are farthest from the 80
years of service. When they are old
er they will see things in their truer
propositions, and have better sense
of their own interest in such fund.
The neglected teacher is a standing
picture Of social 1ngratitude. 1t is
the average teachers position in life
to act as step ladder for the young
They get their start in school, climb
up and out and are off and the teacher
stays and starts second and so on
perhaps to thirtieth flock. School
days become a thing of the past to
them, but remain the every day pre-
sent to the teacher. 1t is a self
sacrificing occupation and it ought
not to be also one so under paid that
those who make it their life work
ind themselves in their old age un-
able to care for themselves. This un-
fortunately often happens nowadays.
The annuity fund scheme, if it were
encouraged a bit, would bring most
welcome relief, and bring it through
