PRIMARY ELECTION APPLIED TO
CITIES ~

Noting the fact that the Sharpe pri-
mary election bill applies to cities of
1000 population and the Grand Forks
Herald, without critieising other fea-
lures of the bill, questions the advisa-
bilify of applying the primary system to
cities and gives some very good rea-
sons therefore. The Herald says:
The object of primary election bill
IS to provide a means whereby parties
may select their candidates for the
forthcoming election. 1t can properly
apply In cases where the final election
rs conducted along party lines, and it
cannot properly apply in any other case.
There is not city in North Dakota
m which party lines are followed in
4te city election. The attempt has been
made here and there to draw party lines
nm city elections, and it has uniformly
faiied 1t has been tried in Grand
Forks, Fargo. Jamestown, Bismarck
and other cities of the state, and every
trial has resulted in failure. Candidates
for city Offices have been nominated by
party committees, and the voters of both
and all parties have ignored such action,
and have decided the election on other
ISSUES Political conventions have nom
mated city candidates, and the people
hare looked on srnilingIy, and have
gone amicably to the polls and knocked
all political plans higher than the ia
rnuus kite flown by the late lamented
MIR Gilderpy Nominations have been
made By petition, and afterward an
sandeavor has been made to elect one
nd fine candidates because he belonged
10 . particular party, or because he
didn't And, regardless of this, the
G voters have voted for or against the
candidate because they wanted him, Oh
because they did not 1t is q
dact that the gap between municipal gov.
Srnmenr and political parties is growing
wider and wider. There are those who
& regret that this is so, who believe that
dhe party should be lugged into all cleo
lions But even these must realize the
facI and why is it not as well for then
no face it We are told a great dea
about the danger of disorganizing polit,
seal parties Is there any more certain
cWay of disorganizing parties than te
force them into places where the peo
n9le do not want them and viii not have
them with the result that on the fna
vote party Lines are all shot to pieces
Would it not be better for the voters
and better for the principle of govern
Inef by parties to face the fact tina
there are ISSUES with which they mus
moi be COMPOUNDED, such as the church
sfie school and the municipality? Il
that case we can appeal with some sor
of consistency for party loyalty in tn
larger affairs Of government, where tn
political party belongs"

The passage of an initiative and ref
erendum bill, specifically excluding the
authority for an expression on amend
ing the constitution, is narrow states
rnanship Can it be the prohibitionist
rs so uncertain of the real sentiment of
zffe people of this state that he would
not dare resubmit the prohibition arti-
scle7 is it possible that no matter how ur-
gent or necessary it might become, ow-
ing to changed conditions, to amend the
constitution in other ways, simply
through fear Of resubmission, the. radi-
ard prohibitionists will insist on making
It impossible to ever obtain an express
SION through the initiative route?
The Tribune believes that if the ques-
-fion of prohibition was to be voted on
today it would carry and if it would
prevail how much easier it would be
TO enforce the law. If prohibition
would not carry, upon what theory Of
popular government do those who OPP
pose the constitution provision IN the
referendum bill, base their arguments
This snacks very much Of se1hshness,
of stubbornness and petty statesman

TRACE OF ARM LOST IN WAR.

Member Amputated at Antietam Found
In Army Museum and Photographed.
Members Of congress receive many
strange requests from their constitu-
ents, but probably the most curious
one ever received came to represent
ative from Minnesota recently from
Captain j. F. Allen Of st. Paul, says
washington special to the New
York Times. Captain Allen asked the
member to look up his arm, which he
had lost at the battle Of Antietam
Captain Allen learned that the sur
geon who performed the operation
had preserved the member and sent it
to the Army Medical museum. Cap
tain Allen expressed desire to have a
photograph Of the arm, and as he was
a very influential man in the district
the congressman instructed his secre-
tary to make an investigation.
The arm of the captain was found
at the museum in an excellent state of
preservation and photograph was
forwarded to Captain Allen.

Strange Cases In Iowa of Reversion to
Brute Types.
What is regarded as strong cor
roboratiVe evidence of the truth Of the
Darwinian theory is reported by
Iowa Humane society officials after
an investigation of the case of two
sons Of w. a. Leupardez of Wichita,
Guthrie county, Ia, says a Des
Moines special dispatch to the New
York World
One Of the sons, sixteen years old,
runs around like dog, curls up in a
ball behind the stove and snarls and
tries to bark The other, twenty years
old. has the characteristics of gorilla
He shows his teeth and makes awful
threats.
The Leupardez family are poor and
unable properly to restrain the sons.
Strange tales of their habits have
alarmed the neighbors, and at night
windows are locked in fear of the
gorilla-man and of the dog-boy that
runs with belly to the ground and
barks and snarls at people.
Locked in shed the dog-boy is
heard whining when people go to the
house. The father fears he will bite
people.
A few days ago a party Of citizens
went to the father and accused the
eldest son of theft. The boy was
urged to reveal the hiding place. He
grinned nockingly and leaped to the
rafters. Then the father placed a
rope about his neck and forced him.
Juggling and bounding, to a tree and
threw the end of the rope over limb.
Only then would he yield and show
where the stolen articles were Sc
creted.
Mrs. Elizabeth Jones Baird, secre-
tary of the Des Moines Humane So
ciety and a specialist in this line Of
work, who recently returned from the
Leupardez home, says she will COM
municate with eminent scientists in
the belief that new and startling light
will be turned upon the origin Of the
human species.

The former English preacher made
fun of J. ?. Morgan asserting that
''Morganeering" became SO extensive
in England that the English people
carried permits signed by the Wall
street 6nancier permitting them to
walk on the earth.
Incidentally he made the assertion
that the hymns sung in American
churches were mostly mere doggerel
and rubbish.
The way to get men to church, DR..
Aked said, was to give them a differ

to their maiden aunts. "When you
do that" he said, you will get people

THE BAprrsTs WILL BUILD
At Largely Attended Meeting Oh
Members They Decide
10 Build.

For some time. as previously stat
ed by the Sentinel. the members
of the Baptist church of Grand June
tion have been considering the advis-
ibility of erecting a new house OF
worship. 1t has been finally and def
initely decided to erect the new build
ing.
Last night at the church a meet
ing of the members was held for the
purpose of reaching a decision in this
important matter. There was a large
attendance and by an almost unani-
nous vote a motion was passed to
the effect that a new church should
be erected at once
Many addresses and talks were
made by various members of the
church and the pastor, Rev. II. A. Mil
Ter. All favored the Improvement.
The plans and specifications will
be prepared at once and in short
time work will start on one of the
handsomest church edifices to be
found on the western slope. The prob
able cost of the new building cannot
be given but 1t will go considerably
above the $12. 900 mark.
1t has not been finally decided as
to where the building shall stand.
Several sites are now under consider
alton 1t is hardly probable that
The new church will stand on the site
OF the present building.
The Baptist congregation long
ago outgrew the present building and
new church or an addition to the
present one is absolutely necessary.
Several members of the congrega-
ton have already signiiied their in
tention of subscribing $1,000 to the
building fund.
The meeting last night was most
enjoyable one and there were social
features besides the business affairs.
Light refreshments were served. and
an hour was spent in social way.
