THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE

The special message of President
Roosevelt to Congress last Friday diff
eres materially from any state paper
it has been our pleasure to read. 1t
will be called by many Incorporate,
by some soclalistlc, BY one. and be the
Chancellor of great Northern Univer-
sity, it has been characterized as "the
| rawlings of disordered mind" These
may thus endeavor to minimize its
effect, but with the great public. the
masses, the plain people, who do not
FRI quent the walks where criminal
wealth and fashion parade, it will
cause an awakening not accomplished
by any other means. Coming from the
head of the Nation it will be read and
studied, and Its effect will not be blown
away by few puffs of wind from
eminent" professors, Standard Oil
magnates, Railroad presidents, nor
W all Street high fnancIeIs. It will
t IKE root and if all signs Go not fail it
will work revolution much to be de-
sired throughout the nation. 1t may
be wrong to place capital on one side
class against class. This message has
not done this. They have long been
thus arrayed. But on occasions CAPT
tai has caj0led labor, or hoodwinked it,
or SO pulled the wool over its eyes that
capital has been able to pursue its
chosen way unchecked and unhinder
ed, Thus has it become arrogant bold,
defiant, if not indeed criminal, and
believing 1t to have become criminal
Mr.. Roosevelt, differing from the pres.
entail tools, capital has heretofore en-
throned in the White House, has made
bold to attack 1t. The result is appar-
ent. 1t, capital, has set ON foot thou.
sand snares to entrap him. it has de-
vised cunning means to destroy his
power and influence, and If the people
do not check it and follow the way
marked out. neither Mr.. Roosevelt nor
any other bold or daring official will
live long to fight the popular battle.
This message will, we hope, determine
the people on one thing, and that is
that corporate power, the opportunity
for criminal wealth, the gam milling in
futures, and thousands Of unlawful
means of public plunder will be curtail-
ed if not destroyed land that the coun.
try may look for healthier season
and one wherein common people will
have at least few rights. and some
show for fair treatment.

Some wise Democrats cannot sup
port Mr.. Bryan because be. they say,

this ground. 1t is the least OF the

AT THE REFORM SCHOOL.

Mandan, Pioneer: The State Re
form school board met Wednesday
afternoon at the school. Every mem
Der of the board was on hand. Aside
from the routine business the board
ordered an engine and dynamo for
the new building that is now nearly
completion. The board does this
with the intention of the dynamo
furnishing lights for the entire
school.
They also ordered the purchase of
a gasoline engine for the pumping
of water from the Heart river for If
rigating purposes. The board ap
pointed Christian Birch Jr., a mem
Der of the board, and Superintendent
Brown, as a committee to go to the
Twin Cities and purchase the neces-
sary machinery.
The board also let the contracts
for the winter for the supply of gro
ceries and meat. J. Fl. McGillic and
company were awadded the contract
for groceries and Gussner Bros, re
ceived the contract for meats.
Three boys also received paroles.
The new building which has been
built of cement blocks by the boys
is now ready for the roofing and
will soon be occupied. .gs
| The basement OF the huildipp will
be used as blacksmith shop, laun-
dry and engine house. The first
floor for the machinery and place
for bench work. and the third floor
will likely be used for an assembly
room.
Superintendent Brown is to be con.
graduated on his new building. The
reform school has cost the state less
in the way Of building perhaps, thar
| any other state institution.

pretty good evidence that the attrac.

week were excellent This was the
more evident from the fact that a
road show was at the Opera house,
and the further fact that it was Sat,

SCHOOLGIRLS AS LABORERS

New Bedford Pupils Working on Ath-
Ietic Field Given by II. II. Rogers.
Laboring with pick and shovel as EN-
ployees of Henry II. Rogers, a number
of the boys of the Fairhaven high
school at New Bedford, Mass, are now
engaged in summer occupation which
brings them threefold benefit. Their
toll goes toward the completion of the
new athletic field which Mr.. Rogers
has given to the high school. They
are paid by the day for what they do,
and the vigorous open air work is add
ing to their health, muscle and summer
tan.
Fifteen of the boys are employed to
help the town laborers level and grade
the athletic field, which is located at
the rear Of the high school building.
The lads range in age from fourteen
to seventeen years. Mr.. Rogers visits
the lot every day to watch the boys al
work.
One of the boys, aged fifteen, sizes
up his job in this way:
ut is pretty tough job, but when a
fellow has couple of weeks hard
work like this 1t gives him an appetite,
and he gets so used to 1t that he
doesn't mind it. We receive a dollar a
day, and that is pretty good pay for
boys our size and age. but we do near
~ as much work as the regular gang"
The work Of grading the Tot is near
" completed, and one-fifth mile run
ming track is being laid out

upon the earth, or in other words, the
rain that fell in the half hour it was
busy measured just one-fifth of an
inch. The rain was preceded by a
wind which raised cloud of dust that
was binding to those out in it.
1t is reported by trainmen on the
500 that at Magnus heavy hail fell,
covering the ground thickly so
that it was white, but that in their
opinion the area Of the hail was small
and did little damage.

Attorney General McCue, in an opin-
ion filed with the governor, holds that
the constitutional amendment provid-
ing that city and county bonds may
be purchased by the permanent school
fund of the state is void, for the rea-
son that it has been discovered that
the provisions of the law regarding
the publication of the amendment
were not observed.
The amendment was first passed in
1903. 1t then went to the legislature
of 1905 and was again passed. 1t
then went to the people and was
adopted.
The constitution requires publica-
ton of the amendment for three
months at certain periods between
the first and second passage by the
legislature. These provisions of law
We're not complied with, and the
amendment was published for three
weeks instead of for three months.
A decision of the Montana supreme
court in similar case holds that this
defeats the validity of the amend
ment. Attorney General McCue holds
with this decision.
No new bonds of this kind can be
bought under this decision. The val
idity of bonds already purchased,
however, is not affected by the fact
that the amendment is invalid
