Yes, surely God is glad
To hold a lovely, spotless soul
Like yours, my little lad.
IF I should die before I wake"
The mother bending low
Sends up a voiceless, wordless prayer
That this may not be so.
"T pray the Lord my soul to take
a little pause. and then
He asks the Lord to bless us ALL
And signs a soft Amen.

ONE drawback to allowing Canadian
wheat shipped through the United States
in bond for the European market is the
fact that it is placed in direct competi-
ton with the product of this country.
AS a rule bonded cars have the right of
way over ordinary cars. Canadian ship
pers rush out the wheat to lake naviga-
ton and the early market. Ordinarily
the farmers of the Northwestern states
ship the bulk of their wheat during the
last three months of each year. Their
export grain is placed on the Liverpool
market when it is more or less congested.
AS the Canadian transportation COM
panies have not the capacity to carry
their export trade to the seaboard before
June or July of the following year the
bonded route affords them additional
facilities. Though a good thing for
transportation companies it appears to
work against the American farmers

The firm of Sears Roebuck g. Co, the
big Chicago mail order house, was in
dicted Friday of last week, charged with
the fraudulent use of the mails. 1t is
alleged that the company misrepresents
the articles listed in their catalogue, and
for that reason was using the mails for
fraudulent purposes. 1t is stated that
the Iowa retail merchants ASSOCIATION
is behind the investigation, and it is re-
ported that the mail order houses are
going to combine in order to fight the
work of the retailers, and will retaliate
in every possible away. This is believed
to be the first gun in the greatest fight
between the retailers and the mail order
houses ever started, and experts in the
matter are of the opinion that the mai
ordes houses will get the best of the
fight if the retailers carry it on along
the lines the Iowa retailers are doing
The mail order houses claim that they
are securing evidence against the re
t~ailers, and will have them prosecuted
for combining to hold up prices.

This is the way the Pink Paper puts
it: "a great many of the insurgent
pa, ers lack in enthusiasm over the re-
suits of the Grand Forks conference and
the endorsements made. 1t does look a
little strange to see johnson, who fought
the insurgents at jamestown convention
turned down and Marshall who had the
opportunity within his grasps 10 bring
victory to the insurgents cause but fail
ed to segregate himself and crowd from

The common people are getting it in
the neck" these days in spite of the
boasted republican prosperity. If a man
can get hold of enough clearing house
certificates to buy anything, the tariff
protected trust high prices makes him
discount this Roosevelt currency 81 per
cent, from what the same amount would
have purchased a few years ago. If a
man is lucky enough to secure any real
money, whether with SIN God We
Trust inscribed upon it, or any other
motto, he certainly does not trust the
banks, or the republican party with it.
but puts it away in such a safe place
that no one is likely to hear the eagle
scream. Whether it is "my policies"
the tariff and the trusts: currency laws
to protect tho banks; the frenzied finan-
ciers; or a c~onglomoration of all those
engines of mischief that is the financial
trouble, no one can escape the conviction
that the republican party is responsible
Even the most blattering republican
spell binder in the next campaign will
have to give some more plausible excuse
for the panic than blaming it on the
democrats.

INVESTMENTS or SCHOOL FUNDS.

The following statement, issued by
State SUPERINTENDENT w. T.. Stockwell,
secretary of the Board of University and
School Lands. will be of interest just
now that the public has had its attention
drawn to the investment of the perman-
ent funds of the various state lnstltu-
tions and of the common schools.
Numerous erroneous statements have
appeared in the press of late bearing
upon this subject, consequently tins
authentic account will be more than
welcome:
Since March /. 1907 the Board OF
University and School Lands has IN
vested 81, Os6.OCO.OO divided among the
following classes of securities: Farm
Loans S40l, 10000, School Bonds S4l9,
900 00. Municipal Bonds Sl5l,lOom,
County and Township Bonds So4,4Oooo
Inasmuch as there has been some ques-
ton as to the boards attitude toward
farm loans, it should be noted that since
March l, when the amended law relative
to farm loans went intoetfect. si0l,4o0oo
has been invested in this way or an
average of S44,60OW Il month. By
months the farm loans made are as
follows: March nothing, April 5000 90,
May S21, 10000. June S41, 10000, July
S42,35OOO. August S22,0000o, September
s45,50O.Oo,O October s45,350.00. November

making a total of S4Ol 10000 or more
than four times as much as all outstand

There are still pending applications fol

'Turncoat" is the caption over an
editorial leader in the Pembina Pioneer
Express last week. Mention is omitted
of the name borne by the party whom
the editor has in mind, though every
reader in that county is without ques-
ton aware that the recent political
change of heart experienced by Grant
Hager. of the st. Thomas Times, who no
longer sitteth in the counsels of the
gang, but m%editateth over the doctrine
of insurgency, has called forth the
scathing rebuke of Deacon Wardwell.
The st. Thomas Times man has helped
to frame up republican states for the
gang since before statehood. His own
political ambitions at divers times have
been turned down, and perhaps Grant
thinks that he can better his chances.
At the state gathering recently held at
the Forks. the St. Thomas Times man
was the lone star of insurgency from
Pemhina county. Inability to get a soft
snai, often makes a political reformer.

23rd, Professor Hult gave an address at
the University of Minnesota, ana the
next day spoke at the First Unitarian

calls upon the university faculty for
work of this sort shows that their
scholarship and ability is appreciated.
