BRYAN IN BALTIMORE
TELLS OF HIS TRAVELS ABROAD
IN Y M. c. A. LECTURE.

BALTIMORE, June 5-Fully 1OOO per-
sons greeted Mr.. Bryan as he stepped upon
the stage of the Maryland Theater last
night In company with Mayor Mahool. His
lecture upon 1.-The Old World and Its
Ways. under the auspices of the Young
Mems Christian Association. was followed
with close interest. 1t sparked with humor
and bristled with old homilies In new guise.
for the "Commoner' had put to good use
the training of his youth in making his OBJ
servations on the three continents he Wis
tied in his years tour.
Mayor Mahool introduced Mr.. Bryan who
spoke for nearly two hours, describing the
experiences of himself and wife abroad and
coming ever to the same conclusion that
democracy was best after ALL and that his
own country is the greatest of the earth
his TAX breathed patriotism and reverence
Frequently he was interrupted by applause
and by laughter at his witty sallies
China an Overrated Country.
China Is the most overrated countrv IN
the world he said land the same can ba
said for the philosophy of Confucius. His
golden rule, as cOntrasted with that OF the
great founder of Christianity Is negative
harmlessness opposed to positive helpful
ness. Confucius bids a man do the same
amount of good to his neighbor as is done
to him. and reciprocity is the keyword of
the plan of things. But man who keens a
book account of the good he does never
does enough good to pay for buying the
DOCK and opening the account. China easily
overlook the ideals of Confucius, and has
been standing still ever since.
The most serious problem that cOnfronts
Japan Is whether or not she will accept the
religion on which our civilization rests. or

Trouble in Getting Fit Food.
The speaker told of the difficulty he and
his family had experienced in their travels
particularly in Asia, in getting food that
was fit to eat.

one article of food that one can get the

that the egg, like a touch of nature, makes
the whole world kin. Finally, l concluded
that when 1 reached home l would doff my
hat and pay affectionate and respectful
visit to the henhOuse.'
He told about idoatry as he found it In
different oriental countries, referring with
disgust to the fakirs of India. Manners
and customs of old world countries he dis
cussed in now humorous and now serious
vein, carrying his audience with him as he
would.
Probably no other American without off,
cial position ever rubbed elbows with SO
many kinds OF royalty as Mr.. Bryan and
his description of audiences with different
monarchs was ludcrous in the extreme.

CALAMITY H0WLERS
CANNOT CHECK
PROSPERITY
Senator Hansbrough Raps Ma
tons Knockers = condi-
tions Are Excellent.

Senator Hansbrough is in Fargo
and will remain there for some little
time attending to business matters.
To reporter of the Fargo Forum he
said
No one is more interested in the
prosperity OF the entire country and
of all the people than is President
Roosevelt. and he can be relied upon
to do everything in his power to pro-
mote prosperity and to do nothing
that would check it.
1t is, encouraging to note the gem
eral business activity everywhere, re-
CARELESS of the weather or the Wall
street manipulations A few months
ago there We're those who predicted
hard times. and some even went so
far as to say that financial panic
was approaching. Those dire forebod-
ings evidently came from persons who
We're close to stock jobbing conditions.
Furthermore. it was predicted that
all railroad building would cease this
year and that there would be great
decline in the demand for labor and a
cessation of industrial activity gener-
ally. But have failed to see any of
these things coming to pass. On the
contrary. right here in the Red river
valley | have observed a tremendous
piece of railway construction in prog
ress."
The senator said he referred to the
double tracking of the Northern Pa
cific and the raising of the tracks
through the Grandin valley, Minneso-
ia. He said that this was one of the
biggest railway construction UNDER
takings in progress in the country.
Referring again to general condi-
tons Senator Hansbrough stated that
he had met and talked with great
number of men as he came west from
Washington, and that from what he
heard on all sides the manufacturing
plants of the country are running full
blast and there is no idle labor any,
where.
I'VE have an example of this in
North Dakota" he said 1T is not
every year that the farmers of our
state have been obliged to send away
for help to do their spring blowing"
The senator was very optimistic re-
garding North Dakota weather con-
ditions. He said that he found the
best weather since reaching here he
had found anywhere. and that, all
things considered. spring was further
advanced here than in any other part
of the country.
IN Washington he said, where
there should be summer weather at
this time, the leaves on the trees are
just beginning to show themselves,
and as | came through the Allegheny
mountains saw snow banks of size
which would surprise the people of
North Dakota"

INCIDENT Of GRAND
FORKS IN EARLY
DAYS
Story Of "Jim" Hill and Al
bert schaeffer Related By
A. w. Dunn.

More than twenty years ago James
J. Hill took large special train over
the lines of his road. The ST. Paul,
Minneapolis and Manitoba. it was
then, and the great transcontinental
route was constructed only seventy
miles west of the Red River of the
North. The party comprised mer-
chants. manufacturers, bankers. and
other prominent business men of St.
Paul and Minneapolis. They visited
all the thriving towns and cities in
the Red River valley, which was then,
az now. Mr.. Hills particular pride,
and were greatly impressed. When
the train was about to leave Dakota
to cross over into Minnesota. there
was halt as the engine reached the
bridge, and the crowd went into the
principal street of Grand Forks to
pay last tribute to the hospitality
OF that live western city. Short speech
es were made from dry goods box,
and then there were loud cries for
Schaeffer.
ALBERT Schaeffer. banker, sill
yer tongued orator. and a known can
didate for governor, was hoisted on
box, and RECALLED the crowd with
wit, eloquence, and humor. He made
decided hit, and the crowd warmed
up to him and cheered him, on. Mr..
Hill stood by the train and consulted
his watch somewhat anxiously. He
knew that the special must be away
and make good run in order to give
clear track for the regular passen-
ger train. Calling a brakeman, he
spoke few words, and that employee
sped away. In moment the air was
filled with the hoarse whistle of the
engine and the changing of the bell.
1t occurred in the midst of Schaeffer's
finest flights. AS the sounds died
away and the laughter subsidized, he
said, OF course l can't talk against
one OF Jim Hills engines. | can see
by his sardonic grin that this inter-
ruption was by his orders. I'm go
ing to get even by insisting that he
shall say something right now
Mr.. Hill would have escaped, but
the crowd was insistent. and he was
compelled to mount the box. I wish
had Albert Schaeffer's gift of speak
ing he began. so that l could tell
you something about this great coun-
try Then in his own way he told
that crowd that he first visited the
/ Red river on a dog sled; that few
shacks marked the place where the
city then stood; that he had built
and operated steamboats, on the Red
river, and few more interesting de-
tails of the country when 1t was an
unknown wilderness, with only few
settlers along the river. and inhabit-
ed almost wholly by Indians"
