A Well Balanced Mind.

In the nature of human beings, there
are many sides. The serene, the SUBJ
lime, the ridiculous, and a mind that
leans toward any Of these to an alb
normal degree is not we'll balanced; as
too much sadness brings on chronic
.melancholia, while too much jollity
makes sacred things appear to the
mind in a light that is incongrous to
the real truth OF religion. A mind
we'll balanced enjoyes a picture of life
that portrays all sides of human ma
ture in it's variations as they occur in
u daily lives.
That truth is stranger than fiction
is not true, to the author who under
stands humanity, there is no fiction,
because he writes of human nature. as
he sees it although the incidents may
be drawn from his imagination, the
emotions portrayed though the Incl
dents are plain truths. Such is Sarah
Bernhardt's play. IA Woman OF
Mystery" which Miss Courtenay Nor
gan will play. This play does not
only portray the sad incidents but
gives a real picture of humanity going
from the sublime to the gayer things
in life. At the opera house April 18th.

A Crazy jap

Fargo-A crazy Jap created a sensa
ton this afternoon at the Northern
Pacific station by stripping of his
clothing in the depot and attempting
to start up town in his shoes and
socks and nothing else. The police
were notified and the man was taken
to the police station, where he is be-
ing held. It Is believed that he came
In from the twin cities lately, al
though he is apparently insane and
can give no information to the police.
Probably the sudden change to this
hot climate affected his brain.

RESOLUTIONS

It having been the wish of almighty
God to take from our midst our dear
beloved brother John R. Olson, who
a at peace with the world and also
with the people. Having been prepar-
ed in his heart first for his final call
to his heavenly home it is with great
r and regret that we bow to the
divine Master, but knowing that his
mission here must have been complet-
ed for the final summons, and We
know he will reap his reward in heav-
en-. The neighbours and everyone who
came in contact in any business or
social relation had respect and esteem
for him and he certainly was a good
husband and father. The community
has lost one of it's best supports by
his demise. All spoke very highly of
him and his record was without re-
proach.
Be it resolved, That we extend to
the family of the deceased and also
spread on the minutes of the lodge a
copy of these resolutions. Therefore,
be it resolved Occidental Lodge No.
q, A. F. & A. M. extend their heart
felt sympathies and condole with the
family in this hour of their bereav-
ment.

Frank H. Hitchcock, Taft's
manager, says that Taft will re-
ceive $50 votes on the first ballot
for the presidential nomination.
This is a conservative statement
and as 491 votes are all that are
necessary for a choice, it is al
most certain that the right man
will represent the republican
party and carry it's standard on
to victory.

Pitched Battle

Minot-In a pitched battle with CIT
liens of Minot who were deputized
to arrest him Will B. Bennett, a
stranger, was shot in the stomach and
probably MORALLY wounded. Bennett
and a companion named Brooks were
brought to Minot on the Sherwood
train and were taken to the hospital.
The trouble started over the actions
of Bennett and a companion, who ar
rived at Glenburn recently. They
went to the place of Tony Roble,
who sells soft drinks, drank some bev-
erages, and in addition to not paying
for them said that unless the proprie-
tor gave them SIS they would file in
formation against him, charging him
with running a blind pig.
There are two stories regarding Mr..
Robes actions. One is that he gave
the men the SIS and tho other is that
ne refused to do so. At any rate the
two men left the place and went to the
livery stable Of Sheridan & Shook.
There they engaged a team, and it is
alleged that they refused to pay for it.
A quarrel ensued and Bennett and
him companion allege that one Of the
men at the barn struck Bennett over
the head with a beer bottle.

to restrain Ladd from enforcing his
edict against bleached flour. PROBES.
sor Ladd some months ago issued a
circular declaring bleached -four as
being against the state pure food law
and setting a date when the manufac.
ture of the same should stop.
The millers secured a temporary re-
straining order from Judge Pollock
against enforcing the order Of Ladd,
when Ladd's attorney asked the su-
preme court for a writ Of prohibition

We have learned that large and enthusiastic
conventions and splendid candidates cannot alone
carry an election Salvation from the saloon sys-
tenn is not mere matter of conventions, candi-
dates and platforms, but of honest, earnest en-
thusiastc, and persistent local work by those
who make themselves felt in their own communi-
ties and who pay the price of victory in toll and
sacrifice
The great need of the Prohibition party now
is not so much national leadership as it is local
leadership The man who carries his own cleo
ton precinct for the Prohibition party is greater
than he who makes many speeches.
The local leader should always adapt his plans
to the immediate local needs, while never di-
verging from the fundamental principle that gave
birth to the party and has held it together for

there is one line of work that is always in order
and fits every local condition.
1t is important that the local worker shall
not work alone. He needs and ought to have the
active cooperation of every Prohibitionist, man
and woman, in his community. Indeed, the local
workers name should be Legion, for he should
be many.
This condition is perfectly attainable The
local leader should see to it that every man and
woman in his community who processes adher-
ence to the Prohibition party receives and reads

THE PAPER IN PARTY WORK
Relation of Subscription Getting to the Vital
Item of Local Organization and
Local Activity

Prohibitionists should learn the lessons III prac-
teal politics taught by the recent election. one
of the most important and most evident lessons
is the need for constant local activity.
1t must be admitted that public sentiment
throughout the nation was never more favorable
to the complete overthrow of the liquor traffic
than now; yet the election returns appear to
show that only a comparatively few more thou
sand men so declared themselves this year than
four years ago. The Prohibition party never had
better campaigners for its Presidential and Vice
Presidential candidates. There was an enthusi-
asm that seemed to promise splendid results. But
it is unfortunately true that the Prohibition party
has not pushed its organization thoroughly into

HOW TO BE HAPPY THOUGH MARRIEl
BY EDWIN A. NYE.
Copyright. 1908. by Edwin A. Nye.

Professor f. II. Rackmore of the
University of Kansas proposes the in
PRODUCTION into the schools of course
preparatory to matrimony."
/ Whereat guffaw goes up.
But is 1t really ito laugh?"
Surely there is great need Of educa-
ton concerning marriage.
Surely u better understanding Of its
meaning would prevent much marital
misery and many divorces.
That is to say
A boy and girl fall in love" with
each other. They have been told that
love will resolve all things into fac
tors of married happiness. Therefore
the happy-go-lucky plunge!
| But
Does the average boy and girl know
what love really Is? Much that passes
under the name is the mere froth Of
sentimentality that will quickly pass
away or it may be mere animal pas
sion-not love, but lust.
Could not young persons be delicate
ly and simply taught the difference?
They could be shown that love is de-
votion; that 1t spells self sacrifice; that
it is kind and long suffering; that it
thinks no evil; that it knows naught
that is unseemly; that 1t hopes all
things, endures all things; that it up
braids not; that it abides forever.
After such an understanding of real
affection they could be taught that
MARRIAGE means eOuality
That it requires understanding and
sympathy, which are more than equal
ity.
That 1t presupposes the ability and
patience to live with another person
successfully.
That selfishness must be put away
and that unfaithfulness Is treason.
II ethics and philosophy can be
taught in the schools, why cannot it be
taught "how to be happy though mar
ried." which involves the practical
side Of both ethics and philosophy?
1t Is true not every teacher could
teach or lecture In such a course.
Strong common sense, experience, an
altruistic spirit-these would be nee
essary.
But what an opportunity for such a
teacher!
How, for instance, 1t could be en-
larged upon that successful marriage
requires the exercise Of the highest
qualities Of manhood and womanhood;
how it's discipline Of spirit is designed
to bring out the highest and noblest In
man and woman!
If the schools can help society in
this, one Of its greatest needs, why not
try them?
Something must be done.
