LAND POOR.

The ST. Thomas Times registers big
kick because it legislative district came
out loser in the apportionment and
brings in lot of figures to prove that we
should have been the losers instead OF
the second district. Well we don I
blame the Times for kicking; over here
we felt like kicking because we lost one
and they have twice as much to kick
about as we have. However there is
one way that we can get back our loss
in both districts and that is by encourag-
ing immigration. We have hundreds OF
acres of the finest lands that the sun
shines on without people on them. Its
people that we need. That's the true
basis of commonwealth. Bonanza farms
were..all right in the days of cheap prairie
but now we want men. Perhaps the
weeds, which are such unwelcome immi-
grants and which are arriving in such
great quantities may in the end prove
q blessing. Weeds mean intensified
farming and intensified farming means
workers. But every body can help a
little. Let outside friends know that there
are just as good opportunities in this
county as there ever. was yes, better,

Every boy wishes his father had a
million dollars to leave him. Every
girl wishes she had beauty. Harry
Thaw had his wish for money and
Evelyn Nesbit had hers for extreme
beauty. Say, boys and girls while you're
wishing, you better wish for something
more than beauty and money. Alone
they generally bring anything but hap
piness. Both are valuable, but each or
both must be mixed with something
else. Oxygen is necessity to keep up
life, but pure oxygen just makes us
drunk and in a short time brings death.
Money and common sense, beauty and
character are healthful. Money alone
brought insanity to Thaw, beauty
brought ruin of character to Evelyn
Nesbit. On the other hand, common
sense. and character don't need much
money, don't need much beauty-and
usually what they need of these for
healthful mixture they get.

A novel feature has been introduced
in the shape of bill, in the MINNESOTA
legislature placing the members of the
legislature on salary in place of per
diem as at present. 1t is claimed by the
advocates of the new bill that under the
present system the work is being crowd
edinto limited time and many important
measurers are rushed through without
due consideration. The argument is
that if the members were placed on
salary they would go to work as soon as
the session opened and there would be
no object to prolong the session. At the
same time if there were important bills
before them they would not be rushed
through or killed by limitation. The
bill a lso calls for the legislature to meet
every year.

When our legislators are thinking
about fixing the date when taxes become
due, they always forget to think of the
time when the fiscal years of the town
ships, villages and cities end. The re-
suit is that the townships and villages
which have their annual meetings in
March and the cities which hold their
elections in April, have to make finan-
cial statements that give but little idea
of the real financial standing, because
the taxes which have just become de.
linquent on the 1st of March have not
yet been distributed to these municipal.
tiles by the county treasurer. In this
city the auditor and treasurer usually
delay the report until April 1st, by
which time the money is generally paid
over from the county and thus the re-
port shows the actual and not q
mere guess as to how much we are 60
ing to get.

Webere Guilty

At 2:3O Saturday afternoon the jur,
at Grafton in the case of Otto Webere
accused of the murder of Anna Engal
srud returned verdict of guilty of mur
der in the first degree and fixed the
penalty at life imprisonment. The jury
was out II hours. On the first ballot il
stood three for acquittal, seven for man.
slaughter and two for murder in the
first degree.
Weberg was at once sentenced by
Judge Kneeshaw. The court thanked
the Jury for the conscientious manner
in which it's members had performed
their duty. He said the defendant had
been ably defended but there was no
doubt that he was guilty and sane.
Judge Kneeshaw stated with life i'm
prisonment after committing such a cold
blooded crime that he was getting off
easily.
Weberg displayed little emotion while
the jury returned it's verdict or when the
sentence of the court was pronounced.
He bore look Of relief when it appear
that he would not be hanged. He had
been fearful that he would be hanged
and had many times expressed willing
ness to take life Imprisonment. The on
ly time he broke down was when he
said goodbye to his attorney, E. r. Sink
Ter. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he
thanked his counsel for saving him from
the gallows.
Weberg will be taken to Bismarck
early next week -to begin serving his
sentence. s:ss3tt

HON. JOSEPH MORIN'S VOTE.

Neche, March 18th, 1907.
TO The Pioneer Express
In picking up your paper of the 9Th
inst, it seems to me you are very anx-
ious to let the public know how l voted
on the resubmission question. i wish
you would correct your figures you have
60 against and 20 in favor, while the
right figures are, 81 against and 30 in
favor of resubmission. Those are the
correct numbers, My reason for voting
the way did is, am always in favor OF
letting the majority rule; for my part
am well satisfied as it is, but the idea OF
your mentioning only my name as you
did it is plain to all it is simply to throw
a slur at me. JOS. NORM.
In the above communication as to the
correct figures, Mr.. NORM is probably
right as the total more nearly ap-
proximates the total number of repre-
sentatives with allowance for eight OF
ten absent and not voting. These fgur.
es however are of but little consequence
as the voting of sixty or sixty-one
against resubmission" shows the senti
ment of the House on the subject.
Mr.. NORM, says that our simple state
ment of the fact that he voted for resub
mission is a slur on his character. Wei
if that is true, what about the act it.
self? We made the statement as mat
ter of news, but Mr.. NORM did the vot
ing.
Mr.. NORM seems to think that we de
liberately selected him alone for mark
and forgets that he separated himself
from the others and thus made himself
the prominent exception.
The Pioneer Express made no critl
cism whatever on Mr.. Morin's vote. II
was the vote that we expected him t,
vote when elected from what we knew
of him. We suppose that is the wa,
that most of those who voted for hin
expected him to vote-or at least nigh
have. naturally expected.
1t does not follow however, that ever
in this case that such vote is at al
detrimental to Mr.. Morin's character
or that of any other man for that mat
ter. 1t is quite possible for a man tx
believe in resubmission, it is quite pos
sibly for a man to believe in a vote OF
the question of resubmission, and still
be honest in his convictions and con
sequently of good character.
1t is quite perceptible though, that
Mr Mor;n o%o n ,,uo,,l oe -. ,,1Lx
on this question; if he was he would not
have objected to our publication of the
fact-and we are free to say that We
heartily sympathise with him in this
as we are not proud of it either. But
as Mr.. M. knows, the large majority Of
his constituents also are not proud oi
|it,-and this is what is particularly the
matter with Mr.. NORM.
