lnere VIII ne a banquet after the
"doins."
G. A. Johnson of Minot, candidate
for governor, is doing some canvass
ing in the northern part of the state.
The Walhalla Mountaineer laments
because so far. none Of the political
candidates have demanded space in
that paper for their announcements.
There must be some good sized
! hills in the vicinity of Douglas be-
cause coasting seems to be the popu-
lar pastime with the young people
at that place.
Now that Editor MUMMY Of tho Blu
ford Tribune has been declared gull
ty of malicious mischief his paper
will undoubtedly contain more hot
stuff than ever.

According to the announcements
in the newspapers there are q lot
of the members Of the last legisla-
ture who seem to want to come back
for the next session.
The town of Rollette has, experienc-
ed considerable trouble in holding
judry trials because there wasn't a
room in town large enough to ac-
commodate jury and thecourt OH
Gals.
The city council at Minot has done
nothing in regard to the city water
works proposition and according to
the adjournment taken 1t will take
another two weeks before anything
Is done.
A contributor Of news matter to
the Minot Reporter does not believe
in spending any more Of the taxpsy4
ers money for the sake Of trying to
prosecute Major Murphy.
The fact that Peewee Packard Of
the Valley City Times-Record ana
Kjetil Knutsson Of the Normanden
called on Roosevelt at the same time
this week probably marks the real
red letter day Of the president
The fact that Adams, Hettinger
and Dunn counties will be outside Of
any legislative district when the leg
islature convenes may mean that an.
other apportionment proposition may
make its appearance next session.

STANDS BY HIS REcoMMENpA
TIoNS

The president stands by his recon-
mendations for waterways internally
In the United States. and in transmit
ting the report of the waterways com
mission to congress he took occasion
TO emphasize the necessity for the
improvement of our internal waterway
system, as a means of providing
necessary transportation where rail.
ways have proven inadequate to the
demands. Or as necessary check and
competing transportation system
where there have been complaints OF
unfair treatment The subject of wa
terway improvement is live one and
North Dakota should not fail to keep
Its interest in the matter alive with
q view to improvements upon the Red
and the Missouri. The Minneapolis
Journal, in commenting upon the re
port, says:
The commission makes the i'm
portant point with reference to
the deepening OF rivers that the
river traffic has fallen of, not on
sy relatively, but absolutely, in the
past ten years, This has been
due to the competition of rail-
roads. The demand for the i'm
provement OF rivers reached Its
climax only when the railroads
failed to respond to the demands
upon them. The commission
points out that Improvement of
waterways will not relieve con-
sgestion. unless the waterways are
FUSED. Hence, it concludes that
s9Eeiief can be made permanent ON
Is by an adjustment of allrail and
rafland water rates. In other
words. the commission does not
believe that private capital will

Down in South Dakota they have a
primary law that gives the various
parties the right to select colors for
their primary ballots. The republic
ans have selected white, the demo-
Gratis yellow, the socialists have come
along with pink and the prohibition
lists are expected to select blue-not
that 1t has any especial political sig
nificance, but perhaps because it is

AS to what children should be taught
in school, the members of the Nation

called on the president at Washingto,
We're treated to sensible talk with
reference to the duties Of teachers
and the advice given them was that
children should be taught to be goo.

all this nearly covers the subject.

Grand Forks Times: C. A. Johnson
Of Minot, who recently announced his
candidacy for the republican nomina-
ton for governor. is in the city today
looking over his prospects in this
part of the state. He met a large
number of republicans during the day
and was much pleased with his recep.
ton. He says he will receive a, least
eighty percent Of the republican votes
of his own county and thus, should
he be the party's choice, be able to
go before the people of the state with
a strong home backing. Ward county
republicans have forgotten fractional
differences in his candidacy. He be.
lieves in making such campaign as
will permit the party in the general
election to drive the democrats from
power in the state.

In connection with the suit brought
by the United States government to
dissolve the Standard Oil company of
New Jersey. Testimony was given to
the effect that the Standard Oil Off

the witnesses examined on the ground
that IL related to state transactions
