THERE ARE MANY HEIRS.
To the Estate of Northwood Man
None of Them Will Receive q
Very Large Amount.

Paul c. johnson of Northwood has
made final accounting before Judge
Hassell in the estate of Christopher
Ericsson (deceased) of Northwood.
Ericsson died on Dec. 30, 1905.
The residue for the state after all

tied was but $339.35, this munificent
sum to be divided among no less than
twenty-five heirs. The deceased has
three sisters living who will draw
full shares, and one brother, besides
three sets of nephews and nieces who
make the total up to twenty-five.
The heirs are scattered from snow
bound western North Dakota eastward
through the state. through Minnesota.
Iowa and ultimately winding up in
Norway where niece and nephew re-
sides.
The itemized list shows that the
largest sum to be paid to one in
dividual will aggregate s4s.4S while
the smallest amounts to 1898.

REAL PROSPERITY.

The general understanding as to the
meaning of the word prosperity is sue
cessful progress in business matters
"a boarding up of money or an ac-
cumulating of material things of
value, regardless OF the course pur-
sued in gaining possession of the
same.
a leading Chicago journal with a
circulation of nearly 100000 of its
Sunday issue. has this to say on its
editorial page: There should be
something ideal, something unselfish,
some thought for others connected
with that wide word so vital in its
meaning to the entire nation and the
entire human race but it admits that
prosperity as the average American
citizen understands 1t is money pros
perity; that the real work of the able
men of today is a purely selfish work.
The editor goes on to the clinching of
his rgument-showing that prosper
ity as it is, is not what it should be
by citing cases that have come directly
under his observation and he proves
quite conclusively that which the
average citizen already knows-that
the more prosperous one becomes as
we understand prosperity, the more
selfish he seems to be, but to our
mind his valuable article loses it's
force in that the editor does not show
the readers of his valuable paper the
remedy.
1t is quite useless on the part of an
editor to use valuable space in con-
vincing the public that his conception
is based upon good logic unless he
goes far enough to offer a remedy for
existing evils which he points out to
his readers. 1t is not enough that
we know that an evil exists nor is it
enough that we know the cause of that
evil. We must, as editors, go step
further and suggest remedy for the
evil. This is our criticism on the ar
ticle above referred to.
We agree with his tenets so far as
he .goes-that selfishness seems to be
predominant characteristic of the
money getters of today; that until we
become unselishnes we shall not have
real prosperity; that there is more
than enough for all the people if only
the wealth were more evenly distri-
buted but we wish to suggest REM
edy for this selfish spirit so predomin-
ate in the human race and which the
said editor characterizes as piggish.
Self-preservation is the first law
of nature. If it were not so we would
all become dependant upon others.
Our laws permit man to kill his
brother man in self defense only. The
child shows a disposition early in life

table people who are doing much to
uplift fallen humanity but we must
not mistake inconsiderate lavishness
for charity. We have large public
institutions for the feeble minded and
the unfortunately insane; hospitals
for the sick and physically disabled;
we have public boarding houses to
feed the hungry and public charities
that look after the clothing Of the
naked. All these maintained by pri-
vate or public (enforced) charity by
taxation direct or indirect. In addi-
ton to these every village, hamlet
and cross-road has It's fraternal or
ganization which is caring for the sick
and paying the widow and orphans a
benefit fund when the husband is un-
fortunately taken away. Yet with all
of these there seems to be an in
suficiency Of charity, too great a
disposition to pile up wealth and CEN
tralize capital that still greater feats
of accommodating may be accomplished.
While there is too great GOODNESS,
too little of the milk of human kind
ness" too little real charity, yet the
fact remains that the bulk of those
who are crying out for equal distri-
button" are class of poor producers
of wealth, a class whose extravagant
habits would soon consume the wealth

WEDNESDAY EVENING, JANUARY q, 1907.

to look out Tor Self-and SnOuld De
encouraged to do so-but it Is in the
early training of the child that the
great mistake is made by both the
parent and the teacher. If We would
have children to grow up into men
and women of charitable disposition
we must start early in life to teach
lessons of charity. How shall We do
this? is the great question that has
baffeled our best teachers. Christ the
great teacher laid down rules, which
if followed closely would wipe out
selfishness and right here is where
master minds differ as to the extent
of charity one should inculcate. The
socialist of today would have all
humanity work on the cooperative
plan and own everything together.
This seems to be the idea prevalent
with the above mentioned editor for
he suggests that there is enough
wealth if 1.-The distribution were prop
erly arranged" to supply the wants of
all. Mans zeal would lose its force
if he were to know that by the sweat
of his brow others would eat his
bread, Notwithstanding, the farmers of
this country are already aware that
this is the case to too great an en-
tent with them.
While all should cultivate charity
in themselves as we'll as in children
under their care, there is no sane
reason why any should encourage
laziness by doing out their hard
earned wealth to those who will not
work or who by eXtravagant habits
consume more than they can produce
Persons who are unfortunately poor
or in want should receive charity from
those who have something more than
present demands require. Some lose
all they have by an accidental fire or
other means over which they have no
control; some bring up families in
want and distress because they have
acquired habits that consume faster
than they can produce, while a large
number of persons in want are so be-
cause they lack discretion in the man
agement of their affairs or are born
tired and never get over it.
Besides educating our children
along lines of charity We must educate
them to respect honorable labor and
encourage them to become useful citi-
zens-not afraid of labor. Our school
system until recently has not given
attention to Industrial schools so that
now there is cry going up all over
the country for skilled labor in the
various branches of industry. We
have been making too many lawyers
doctors, preachers and grafters who
are looking for soft snaps" and not
enough good brick layers and me-
chanics. Our agricultural colleges
are making more skilled farmers and
doing vast amount Of good but our
industrial schools are too limited by
far to meet the present demands.
We must educate all our children
to have a proper respect for labor by
educating them to do some material
thing we'll; we must inculcate a spirit
of fairness and cultivate charity but
not insist upon an unfair distribution
of the products of labor. There are
many philanthropists and many chart
