Washburn still needs more
houses for renting purposes. The
Minot Reporter has the following
to say about building now:
This is a good time to build,
according to figures prepared by
the American Lumberman, show
ing that the cost Of material is
greatly : decreased over 1907.
Labor is also easily obtainabIe.
1t is suggested that men with idle
capital cannot make a better in
vestment than by building. This
is very true Of Minot where it is
easy to rent houses. Business
blocks can also be built for a great
deal less than a year ago.
Many we'll known men of con-
s%ervative dispositions have stated
that bailding can be done now at
a less cost that any time within
the past five years. Some Of
those reporting go so far as to
say within the last eighteen years.
1t is but natural to conclude that
as soon as activity turnout the
country becomes general and the
demand for labor and material in
creases there will be a return to
the besic value which prevailed
during and prior to 1907.

Judge Charles F. Templeton has
decided that tax judgments are
good for an indefinite period and
the law which limits the validity
of other judgments to ten years
does not apply to tax Judgments
which will stand as a lein against
land until satisfied. The decision
was made in the case Of Michael
Hansen VS.. Grand Forks county
and state Of North Dakota in
which the plaintiff claimed that
his title to the land should be
cleared because the judgments for
taxes had been on record for more
than ten years. The judgments
were given against the land in
1898 when John A. johnson own
ed the tract. Several times since
then the land has been transferred
and finally is in the hands of Han
son. The decision is a most inl-
portant one. States Attorney j.
B. Wineman appeared for the
county and w. j. Mayer and

1t will soon be a case of ''Too
Much johnson" There are three
Johnsons on the ticket. The
Ward County Reporter says: With
a johnson to head the national
ticket; a johnson at the head of
the National Congressional ticket,
and a johnson on the state ticket,
it is evident that the decendents
of Scandinavia are coming to the
front in the western states of the
nation.
There was a time when the dem.
ocracy was composed Of the Caseys,
and the O,HooIihans and the
Flannigans, with a few Kentucky
colonies and Henry Waterson
thrown in. The republican party
was composed of what was left and
they generally were the majority.
But we have come to that turn of
the road where political parties
are fast becoming Johnsonized and
doubtless within a few years ii
will be the Johnsons against the
world in every political tug-o-war.
1t was suggested in Minnesota
that the democratic party be
changed to the johnson party, as
there are more Johnsons than
democrats in Minnesota anyway,
and North Dakota is fast falling
in line.

of Labor Leader.

Lincoln. Neb., July Nv. H.
Everoad of Columbus, Ind, who was a
caller at the Fairview residence Of
William J. Bryan, declared that he is
not for John w. Kern of his state for
vice president. John Mitchell should
be named, he thought, to prove to the
labor unions that the Democratic party
Is the true friend of labor.
"TheI Democratic party has always
been the friend of labor and with a
strong anti-injunction plank in the
platform and John Mitchell for vice
president there could be no doubt
about this in the mind of any man."

Brussels sprouts may be easily
grown in the ordinary home vegetable
garden. The plant is a close relative Of
| the cabbage and cauli1ower, but in
stead Of producing a single head forms
q number of small one in the axis of
the leaves, and these heads are called
sprouts and are the edible part Of the
vegetable. The sprouts average n or
two inches in diameter.
The seed should be sown in the open
ground as early as the weather per-
mits. When the plants are three inches
high they should be transplanted or
! thinhed out into rows twenty-four to
thirty inches apart and about two feet

In warm climates the plants may be

heads being removed as desired, but
In more northern ATTITUDES plants that
are well laden with heads are taken up
when frost comes and set close to-

frame" or bed covered with glass.
With a little soil packed about their
roots they may in this way be kept all
winter, being used when needed. When
boiled or stewed with cream they are
delicious.

party must cast at the primary
election 80 per cent Of the number
of votes cast for the secretary Of
state at the last general election by
that party.
According to figures advanced
by prominent democrats, this
would require a vote OF three
democrats at every precinct in the
state to nominate the
governor, and the requirements
become more stringent as the office
becomes more representative of
the people. Leaders of the party
declare that the law provides for
the death Of the party if an ex-
ceptionally large vote was pooled
for the secretary of state. All
incentive to put up a strong man
is lost if the law stands, for a big
vote at the general election and
means trouble the next time Of

STATE CAMPAIGN NEARs Al
CLOSE. 8

Rs The first primary campaign in the
state Is nearing close and so far
as the work Of press bureaus, cam
paign managers, and educators of
the people is concerned, the work is
pretty nearly done. 1t is for the peo-
pie themselves to do the rest, and
there are only a few days to wait
before the result Of the campaign
will be accomplished.
It has been a strenuous campaign,
requiring untiring energy and per-
sistence on the part OF the candi-
dates, and the issues in 1T will seem
rather vague to a good many voters,
except as two sets Of Republican cam
didates are contending for the right
to go before the people as RepubIi-
can nominees for office. The Insurg-
ent candidates have sought to create
an issue BY raising up bugaboo
with which to brighten voters, claim
ing at the same time that its candi-
dates we're the only simon pure and
blown In the bottle bugaboo EXTERN
inators In the business.
A good deal Of buncombe has been
put forth In the way Of alleged cor
Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1908-06-20

poration domination Of the voters
and at the last end of the campaign
we find the loudest of the Insurg-
ent shouters intimating that it is
necessary to elect the Insurgent can
didates because there are grave evils
in the management of public affairs
that need Investigation. When we.
hear a man loudly crying fraud"
and graft, and pointing the fing-.
er of suspicion at his neighbors, we
usually keep a closer watch on the
shouter, just as the wise owner Of a
chicken coop locks his fowls up tight
er, when one of his colored neigh
bors has severe reformatory symp-
toms. The man who shouts the loud
est about his political neighbors is
the man who will bear watching.
1t is hardly necessary to say that
all kinds of roorbacks and canards
are sprung by a hopeless cause at
the last moment in the desire to
prejudice as many voters as possible
and the voters of the state are not to
be frightened or bunkoed into sup-
porting a cause that has innuendo,
SANDER and falshood for its main
campaign methods.
The Stalwart candidates in this
state have confined themselves to
legitimate campaign methods, and
have sought to make use of logic and
argument and proven facts in fur
thering their cause. They have re-
Trained from personal abuse and
from the retailing of spicy facts re
lgarding Insurgent candidates, not be-
cause the material was lacking but
because they have not approved such
methods as have been employed by
the Insurgents. .s
Indications through the state are
that the Stalwart candidates will
have a good majority all along the
line. The Insurgent cause was be-
gotten in personal ambition and it
will die for lack Of any righteous
cause for existence. And after the
primaries, we will all be Republic
cans, supporting Republican candi.
dates and preparing for the struggle
with the common political enemy.

WARD WILL BE RIGHT.

The Minot Reporter has made
canvass Of the conditions regarding
the state campaign in Ward count.
and publishes this editorial state
ment:
In talking with those who
have made a canvass Of Ward
X county for county Office, we fini
that a majority Of the candidates
are Of the opinion that Little Will
have at least SO per cent Of the
4 vote, with the other SO per cent
split evenly between Johnson
and Marshall with the exception
OF small vote for Hansbrongh.
Others say that Titles majority
will be even greater than SO per
cent. We have yet to fInl one
man who is in touch with the
country districts, and who has
covered the county, who does not
believe that Senator Little will
& have good majority. Ward
county is the largest county In
the state and VII pile UP the
