REPUBLICANS PLEASE EXPLAIN.

The democrats may be pardoned if
they relieve the somberness of the pres
ent financial situation by q few jokes at
the expense of the republican leaders.
They have been told so often by the
curbstone republican politicians that
panrcs only come when the democrats
are in power--that republican admins
t~rations always insure good times-that
they must be allowed to smile a little at
the very clear and unanswerable proof
of the inability of the republican leaders
to insure against a panic. Here we are
in the full enjoyment of a high tariff
which taxes the whole country for the
benefit of a few manufacturers, and yet
we are not happy. We have the gold
standard, which we were told was a
panacea and sure preventive for all kinds
of financial disturbances, and yet we are
disturbed. We have the republicans in
power in the nation and in a majority of
the states, and yet business tied up.
We we're told that confidence was all
that was necessary and that republican
victories always gave confidence, and
here we are with our confidence disturb
cd. What does it mean? Can the
republican party be fallible after all?
Is it possible that republican leaders
may make mistakes? Can it be that
republican times are not always good
times? The republicans have claimed
credit for sunshine and for shower, for
favorable seasons and for bountiful
crops. Upon whom will they throw the
responsibility now If farmers have tc
haul their wheat back home because nc
one was willing to take it. In one town
the democrats recalled the cartwheel
dollars that some of the local financiers
used for an argument against silver in
1896, and begged the privilege of Dor
rowing those dollars in the absence OF
ordinary currency. Democrats can dc
their duty as citizens by counselling
courage and patience and by suggesting
for the future, and yet, they can enjoy
the fact that the present panic has ex-
ploded one of the most potent argument
that the republicans have ever employ.
ed, namely--that a republican admins.
tration insures good times and that a
democratic administration is necessarily
a breeder of p%anics. The argument was
not only contradicted by history but was
so absurd that it ought not to have
deceived anyone, but it has deceived
many. Exit this choice bit of buncombe
that has done service in so many cam
paigns!

In case there should eventually prove
to be no chance of electing a democrat
to the United States senate to succeed
Hansbrough, it would appear that the
people of our state, irrespective of party,
would pick a nan who is able to show
the greatest capacity for "doing things
a man who has opinions and is not afraid
to express them and who can be depend
on to remain on the firing line. North
Dakota has no use for weak-kneed, milk
and water craftsmanship. In case these
remarks appear to apply personally to
anyone of the several candidates now i in
the field he may consider himself stung.

Word has been received from a promi-

Scandinavian immigrants can be secured
for North Dakota if the proper induce.

for work as farm hands and in Other
lines of employment, and some would
maze ideal settlers for tracts in the
western section of the state. The offel

be taken at once to look after the mat

What is the use of building monster
battleships, worth 100000 apiece,
when they can be blown all to bits by
a nan operating miles away with an
instrument no bigger than a hand cam
era? This is what a French scientist
claims can be accomplished through
manipulation of the wireless currents
found everywhere. The explosion
which recently blew up the French bat
tleship Jena at Toulon was due to
stray electrical currents coming in con
tact with powder, this genius conf

this was possible by a series Of long
distance experiments. The Japs should
sit up and take notice.

THE FARMERS OPPORTUNITY.

During the coming winter months the
farmers of North Dakota, as we'll as the
citizens of the state generally, will have
exceptional opportunities to keep abreast
of the best agricultural and scientific
thought through the admirable series of
farmers Institutes under the direction
of Superintendent T. A. Hoverstad. 1t
is planned to hold two Institutes in
every county of the state where practic-
able, one in each of two places in the
county. The sessions will be one day
sessions with evening sessions whenever
the institute force remains over night in
the town where the institute is held.
How may a town secure an institute?
Supt. Hoverstad is now at work on the
schedule, and will be guided largely by
the interest shown by requests from the
various communities for institutes. If
you want an institute, write Sup't
Hoverstad at once, at the State Agricul-
tural College at Fargo, N. D. All that is
asked on the part of citizens is that a
place of meeting be provided and that
the citizens cooperate with the institute
in making the institute a success, partl-
cularly by securing a good attendance.
Individual citizens, commercial clubs,
women's clubs-any person or organiza-
ton may begin at once to help along the
farmers institute movement. In case OF
conflicting applications, Mr.. Hoverstad
will make the best possible choice of
places to accommodate the largest
number of interested persons. The list
of speakers and subjects is now being
made out. Prof. Shaw, a practical far
mer before becoming a college professor,
who is widely known the in Northwest as
a valued adviser, will particularly treat
the paramount farmers in North Dakota
the preservation of the fertility of the
soil. Practical farm questions along
the leading lines of agriculture will be
treated in every program. The farmer
will be put in touch with the best books
and bulletins dealing with subjects that
cannotsbe extensively dealt with in
the institute talks. Special attention
will be given local questions as suggest
ed by correspondence prior to the in
stitute. The institute work will repre-
sent the. experience and special study OF
trained and practical men, and by a net
work of institutes over the state the
coming winter it is hoped that The
practical problems Of the farm msy 81
better understood and bsstsr met.

The contest for the republican nom

The contest for the republican nomi
nation for governor is going to be 8
straight fight between the two factions
for control of the party. Senator Sharpe
has followed the gang leaders too long
for him to hope to pose as other than
their candidate, and Twichell is one Of
the recognized bosses of the new in.
surgent crowd. The winner will have
to prove to the people that it is better
for the state to have a politician in the
governors chair than John Burke, and
we don't believe that either one of them
carries the argument.
