 Now you may poke one of the rods up through the hole, Mrs. Tweezer. That's good, now screw on another, and push up. I think this one will carry it through the roof. Now hold until I come down.
 It is dead easy now, Mrs. Tweezer, all that we have to do Is to screw the rods together and push them up. Hold that is all of them. Now when we make the connections we will be ready for business. 1 will ground the necessary rod, and you may twist these wires around rod a and b, be sure that you get them tight We will now run the receiver up and see what we can get.
 What do you think of it, Mrs. Tweezer; don't you think it's peachy and creamy" chuckled Tweezer, as he put his ear to the receiver. Heavens, and earth" screamed Tweezer, as he went flying across the room, and land ed on his back.
 Run for the hose, John, ' yelled Mrs. Tweezer, ''the whole house is on fire"
 See if that is my ear sticking to the receiver, grOaned Tweez- CT as he rushed from the room on his all fours.
 Mrs. Tweezer, with the as sistance of John, soon had the fire extinguished and was won dering what John woul' do next

 l understand, John, that we might receive a message in that way, but how are we going to send one to any desired person?"
 It is very easy to do it, Mrs. Tweezer, that's where the grand part of my invention comes in. You see the air travels in sound waves. Each wave is divided in to StrataS and each strata gives different wave vibration. have found that one inch is the width of strata and have graduated the receiving rod accordingly. Instead of having 'phonenumbers we will have rod numbers. Now when we wish to talk to certain person we look up the rod mum Der, then press a button, and the receiver is shot up or down the receiving rod to any desired mum Der by means of compressed air

 How is that, Mrs. Tweezer:' came a voice through the auger hole just made through the cell ing.
 The hole is directly over the telephone, John"

John. what in the world are you going to do with those light hing rods? The roof of our house now resembles a well filled pin cushion" said Mrs. Tweezer, as she watched John Tweezer care fully stack on the back gallery bundles of copper rods, wire, and a set of electrical tools.
 Mrs. Tweezer, have you any idea what our telephones cost us year,"
 No, I can't say that 1 do, John, as you generally pay the bills at the office"
 II thought as much, Mrs. Tweezer, women never figure on the cost of talking; they think because it's a gift from God it should be free; but if they had the 'phonebills topay, they would think more and talk less. Our phone bills were over fifty dol lars last year, Mrs. Tweezer, but they will never be that much again"
 Why, are you going to have the phones taken out, John?"
 T am going to put in a system of my own, Mrs. Tweezer, one that you will not have to grind your arm off to find out that some one else is using incline. It will be known and chartered as the Tweezer Wireless Telephone Co.
 This invention of mine, Mrs. Tweczer, will do away with the hello girl, wires, ,and delays, and every woman in town can talk at the same time, you don't have to hang yourself on the back fence in a mother hubbard to gossip with your neighbors."
 Do you use your hat to talk through, John?"
 Woman, how dare you poke fun at my invention? 1 will not have you tritie with my ideas. Skepticism has been the stumb- ling stone all along the road of science, and not until an inven- ton IS demonstrated is it rolled away. Now, Mrs. Tweezer, I am going to roll one of the stones away, and ask your assistance. All that l ask of you is to help with the mechanical work.

Official Paper Of the City Of Havre

Mr.. Dahlman, one of the national
democratic committeeman, is out in a
long interview forecasting the next
democratic national platform, and if
he is speaking with authority of his
associates, it is evident that tie COM
mittee is planning another deEocEaic

man the party is to be allowed to be
positive in It's declaration for tariff
reform-as it has been for the past
thirty years; it IS to declare in words
that can be interpreted intelligen tly,
that our policy as imposed upon our
foreign possessions is beth illegal ald

any specific statement as to the en-
forcement of real remedy; it will
state tEat the railway question is a
grave one-almCst as grave as Mr..
Dahlman-and that it must be left to
the state legislatures to adjust-and
that suits the railways. And then
the platform off our party-according
to Mr. Dahlman, and lie says that
what he says gOes-is to employ
couple of thousand of the choicest
words of the English language in de-
nouncirg the opposition and its ex-
travagances, and it will sit hard on
Teddy for having without due authori-
ty of tie law, and in fact in direct
violation of il, extended the authority
or his office; and the platform Will
declare for a regular, genuine cd
Cleveland policy Of economy-just as
the party has for half a century, This
sort of a platform may just suit Mr..
Dahlman and his associates, but it
will not suit the other ninety-fiye per
cent of the democratic party, and the
managers of the democratic party can
make up their minds that if the next
democratic national convention, adOp s

say anything, the great majority Of
the rank and file of the party will not

tising the opportunities of the city

be urged too strongly. The city needs
something to give the outside world
concise and correct information about
our opportunities and advantages
President Lander of the Commercial
club once expressed a fact which
should be given attention by every
one interested in the development of
the city, when he said we could not
develop the city by telling each other
what a splendid city we have. What
is needed is to tell the outside world
these things.

THE wORkHOUsE LAW.

1t will have some effect upon the
hobo element which comes into North
Dakota every season and instead of
assisting In the harvesting of the
crops and thereby earning an honest
dollar, devote their time and attention
to the securing of funds by robbery
and holdups, IL the county officials
will arrange to put into operation the
Dean law passed at the recent SEES
sion of the state legislature providing
for the erection of work houses in
the counties. The class of hobos who
give the authorities the trouble and
who are responsible for the lawless
depredations which mark the thresh-
ing and harvesting season, do not as
sist in the work in the fields and are
menace to the honest men who come
into the state to work.
They should be made not only to
understand that the public will toll
crate none OF their criminal work but
that if detected. as they certainly will
be, they will not be kept in COM
Portable quarters and fed on substan-
tian food at the expense of the tax
payers who are laboring eighteen
hours day in the fields to earn the
money, but that in the contrary they
will be forced to break stone for the
building of roads or perform such
other public work as will amply pay
for their keeping in the county Jail.
Representative Dean struck the key
note of this condition when he secur-
ed the passage of his work house law.
Blisters are more of a criminal deter
ent than we'll supplied stomachs.
Devils Lake has tried with splendid
success the plan of having the munic-
ipal prisoners on the streets and has
been able to nearly keep the streets
in repair and make such improve
ments as were desired of a public
character by the use of Jail labor. If
a municipality can do this there is no
reason why a county could not do the
same. Besides, the real value to the
state from the operation of the law
will be the driving out of the desper-
ate criminal class which not only
gives us an unenviable reputation but
often results in the taking of life for
the purpose of robbery.

LICENSE PUBLICATION.

The fact that it may be difficult,
If not impossible, for the county au-
ditors TO procure from the collector
of internal revenue the names of the
persons in their respective counties
who have procured government Ii
cense to sell Intoxicating liquors, as
required by the law passed by the
recent legislature. need not handicap
the enforcement OF the prohibition
laws to any serious extent.
The general government, which
knows no sentiment. but adheres
strictly to red tape rules, can not
furnish the county auditors with the
lists. The government books are open
for inspection, however, and the state
can secure these lists at its own en-
pense. They would merely give clue
to the possible violators of the law.
The purpose was merely to aid the
officers in locating the criminals.
But that law was passed before the
one creating a temperance commits
sioner, or it is probable the Haugen
bill, requiring the publication Of the
revenue tax would not have been
passed. The temperance commission
er can procure at small expense the
list OF these licenses issued in this
state, and by keeping them a secret,
would be more liable to catch the
violators than if they were forced to
either publish their own death war
rants or to have the auditors do it
through the paper. The enforcement
of the law would in fact give pub
lie notice to the violator that the
officers would be on his trail at once.
1t would be tip off to the man who
was violating the law.
1t is catching and Furnishing the
criminal that makes the enforcement
of the law. Driving them from one
place to another is merely shifting
the burden without relief.
