Casualtisn Ernaetsd.

During one Of Speaker CannOn's bit
ter political fights In his district In Illl-
nOis the opposition resorted to despor-
ate tactics. Among other things friends
Of Uncle Joe were summarily dismiss
ed from positions they held In the pub
lie service. Some Of his friends be-
came alarmed at this, and one Of them
called on the speaker at bis residence
and said. somewhat excitedly:
Joe, Smith aud Jones have just lost
their positions In the postofhce. What
are we going to do about TT"
Uncle Joe took another pun at his
cigar and then answered, with a benov-
olent smile: Nothing. II you 60 into

Vanity Of Men.

In a womans club, over tea and
cigarettes, a group Of ladies cited
many, many instances Of the foolish
vanity Of males.
Take the case Of bees" one said.
Because the queen bee rules the hive,
because she Is the absolute mistress
OF millions Of subjects, man up to a
few hundred years ago denied her sex.
He called her the king bee.
"Pllny wrote somewhere, The king
bee is the only male, all the rest being
females And Moses Rusden, beekeep-
eT to Charles H., stoutly denied, In or
der to please his royal master, that the
large bee, the ruler Of the hives, be-
longed to the gentler sex.
Even Shakespeare couldn't bear to
think that the bee Of bees, the largest
and wisest aud fairest, the hives alb
solute lord, was female. No, all the
proofs Notwithstanding, Shakespeare
called her a male. Don't you remem-

LESS COMPETITION.

The collapse of the Pillsbury Mill
Company at Minneapolis will likely have
an influence on the local price of wheat.
While it is stated that the mills will still
be kept running, it is easy to see they
will not be SO prominent a factor IN the
competition for cash wheat in the Mime.

about half the wheat made into -four at
that point, it will certainly make differ.
ence. This company also owned the
Minneapolis and Northern line of eleva.
tors scattered all over the northwest and
there is more pr less trouble brewing in
this direction as we'll.
For several years now, the demand TO,
hard wheat has been SO strong in Mime
apolis markets to supply the local mills
there that the price of cash wheat has
generally ruled considerably above fu.
lures and other markets. being often 8
higher price than in Chicago.
Some years ago the Pillsbury Mills
were sold to British syndicate and it il
probable that the capitalization was
made too high for the profits to pay the
dividends. Besides the management was
from 3 board of directors in England,
The result will likely be that most Of the
many small English shareholders will be
frozen out and the business reorganixed.

a NEW SUPERINTENDENT.

The removal of Superintendent Of
schools Sherarts necessitates his reslg-
nation rs superintendent at this time.
This of course necessitates the appoint
ment OF new superintendent. Natur-
ally, the candidates for the appointment
before the county board are Miss Annie
Conmy and Mrs. Isabella Burley respect
lively, the democratic and republican
Candidates and nominees for election at
the ensuing annual election.
Such an appointment, though only. to
last until January, will be distinct ad-
vantage for the successful appointee. As
the business Of the county superinten-
dent takes that official all over the
county and brings him into personal con-
tact with school officials and people gen.
orally, it is easy to see that the present
appointee will be able to canvass the
county with bnt little expense and with
the prestige of office-and that without
in any way interfering with the duties of
the office or adding to the expense of the
office. Hence the partisan and friendly
pressure on the board is very strong in
behalf of each of the contestants named.
The county board at this time is CON-
posed of Messrs. Bigwood, Norton and
Sigurdson, republicans, and Mesers. N.Y.
rick and Horgan, democrats. Under a
partisan division Mrs. Burley would be
the natural appointee, and under the
present circumstances we cannot see
why she should not succeed.
A meeting of the. board will be held
soon at which time it is expected that
there will be full attendance.

AS to trusts and monopolies Mr.. Bryan
has indeed denounced, but he has never
given an original or feasible remedy.
As to tariff, Mr.. Cleveland was elected
on distinctly reduction of the tariff"
issue-and he did not reduce the tariff
when elected. Mr.. Bryan while he de-
nounces the tariff has never been able to
put his finger on the place where Mr..
Cleveland failed and where he could and
would succeed.
Because circumstances and the pro-
gress of the countay have settled many
OF the old and then sharply drawn issues
between the parties, and because new is
sues have arisen, which being financial
and social rather than moral, being busi-
ness rather than political, therefore Mr..
Bryan claims that the Republican patty
by now being more like the Democratic
party, has become so because Of the
adoption of Democratic principles, a
The real facts as shown by history aFs
tnat the Republican party were right on
the old issues, that they were settled
in the Republican way in spite of the
opposition of the Democratic party at
every stage of the game-and that when
thus settled, the Republican party has
grappled with the new issues and in
time will settle them and settle them
right as they did the civil war, the recon-
struction OF the union, the public debt,
greenbackism, debased silver, the Span
ish war, Cuba, Porto Rico, PHILIPPINES,
Hawaii, and scores of others.
Mr.. Bryan should read the platforms
OF the Democratic party Tor the last fifty
years and see which party has most
digressed from its stated positions in
that time.

STOLEN THUNDER.

Mr.. Bryan claims as his special plat.
form that the Republican party has
stolen his original ideas. Perhaps No
claim could be more absurd. The oaly
original ideas that Mr.. Bryan has ever
expressed were not original with him
and those which have been more parti-
cularly associated. with his name and
candidacy for the presidency have gone
into ainnocuous desnetude.' .
On all the many issues arising from
the Spanish war, the PHILIPPINES, etc, Mr..
Bryan has prated and prophesied, but
almost in every case those issues have
been settled opposite to Nj. Bryan's
opinions.
On the financial issues, Of 18 to ! and
similar questions, he has proven to be :
most ingloriops failure. Whore Mr..
Bryan prophesied wreck, there hss como
prosperity.

DOING AND TALKING.


During the last ten or fifteen years no
one has rendered more important ser
vices to the nation than William Hiatt.
In Cuba, in the PHILIPPINES, and in many
other places where particular and pecu-
liar circumstances called for man of
brains and tact, Mr.. Taft has been sent
and never failed in the solution OF
the problem given.
During the same period no man has
talked more about the same problems
than William J. Bryan-and mostly
agin' the government.
The one has done things and the other
has talked. Both have been equally
successful in their own lines and have
won fame accordingly.

YELLOWSTONE PARK HoLD.uP.

Members of the North Dakota Edi
torial Association will read with specia
interest of the hold-up OF the stages in
Yellowstone Park on Tuesday of this
week, by which lone robber with rife
successfully held up twelve coaches full
of unarmed travellers and relieved them
of several thousands of dollars.
He couldn't have done that with the
North Dakota editors-no sir.
just the same, the conditions for such
a robbery are ideal from the highway.
mans point of view, aud probably the
reason that nobody ever tried it before is
because the average highwayman is not
a Yellowstone Park tourist, and hence he
did not know how easy it could be done.
By the same reasoning tbs robber if ever
arrested is more than likely to be some
Que who has been employed about the
park in some capacity.
As to catching him, while there is 4
company Of soldiers thereabouts, the
park is big, Wild and mountainous, and
is surrounded by mountain ranges and
uninhabited country all about, and if the
robber knows the country. and has pro-
vided himself with food in advance, the
prospects Of getting him except by his
own indiscretion are very poor. il.
The government ought to arm the
stage drivers at least. These men are
mostly western COW boys, and if they had
any show could prevent such hold,ups,
as the stages Away go in group.

RACE SUICIDE.

The words "humaa race" have come
to have double meaning. The whole
world is last engaged in a human race.
Speed is the controlling motive in all
our enterprises. We strive to overtake
time. We seem to act on the idea that
the more We do in a given time the
more life we shalt have to live.
But nature beats MS. Time is old but
not decrepit. ''The years Of a mans life
are three score and ten" But if the man
chooses he may live the three score and
ten in mach less than seventy years.
"Race suicide is not only at the be.
ginning hnt is also at the end of life. In
this we are burning the candle of life at
both ends. In the beginning it is race
suicide because of the dislike to assume
care and responsibility. At the end it is
because the victim insists on assuming
more care and responsibility than he can
carry. It is a human race in a double
sense-and the load and the speed are
too much tor the racer.
just nov the world is watching with
intense interest some new mechanical
means of acceaerating the. already rapid
pace of the human race. With the ex-
perience Of railways and street cars be-
hind US as killers, we are now spending
millions in automobiles, and in little
later will fly in the air. Speed. speed!
speed!
Locomotives confined to steel rails on
q level road bee, mostly with clear tracks,
have killed their thousands yearly, and
now we have locomoter automobiles,
running with equal speed, steered by
children, women, and unframed men,
flying wild over the crowded streets Of
cities and the common highways OF the
country and naturally and certainly the
most common newspaper item Of the day
is fatal automobile accident" and the
fatality is as often to the riders as to
the over-ridden.
But this alone does not satisfy, man
must fy-and he will fly. There will
however be one advantage in the aerial
routes. There viii be nobody to run
over. While the fatality to the human
birds will be more certain, when accident
does occur, and while accident must
necessarily occur more often, the chances
q air-ships falling on wsyfsning people |
on the earth, will be rather remote.
But the human race will 20 faster and
faster -until-Who can 1oretsll the end
Of the mad human race3

the LIE of President u. j Neil OF
the State organization of the
Farmers union.
This fact h, came known Wed.
nesday, when President Neil gave
out letter that he has received
signed by some person who char
acterizes himself without clubbing
rs a night rider
The letter received by President
Neil today is only one Of a'out a
score that have come to him dur
the last few weeks,
The latest message is dated at
Abilene, Texas, Oct. 10, but came
10 AZ envelop bearing Dallas
post mark, indicating that II was
mailed at that place
The letter is written on paper
torn from a note book, and with
pencil in large scrawl. 1t is
signed, "A Union Man and Night
Rider"
1t characteriEes President Neil
rs a traitor, and declares he is a
warning to him to desist in the
course of action that he has per
sued up to this time, If he does
not the mlsslve declares, that he
will meet the fate OF all traitors
Though the letters have been
coming in steadily for some time,
President Neil paid little attention
to them before the one came We'd
nesday. This one is more definite
and threatening than any OF the
Others he has received Fort
