COUNTS AND DUKES
What Our International Marriages
Have so far Cost Us

An altogether new menace in the in
ternational marriage is suggested by
Congressman. SABBATH of Chicago-and
perhaps it is, indeed, serious matter;
certainly it looks so from the figure
he marshals
From these it appears that the in
ternational marriage has been a drain
on the American pocketbook which
even that plethoric wallet cannot with
stand indefinitely. Nearly billion
dollars has gone overseas with the
! American brides of dukes, counts,
princes and plain commoners within
the last quarter of a century-a thous-
and million dollars!
Certainly that is good deal of
money, says the April Designer, and
whether the bridegroom Is himself a
rich man, like the Hungarian noble
who is the latest to take a young
American heiress to wife, or a flag
rantly impecunious fortune-hunter, as

dacy attracts attention from the fact
that Mr.. Blaisdell exempliies what

plish by applying himself diligently
and by adopting a well defined sys-

tically indorsing him as their choice
for representation on the state ticket
For the sake of being amenable to
the desires Of the convention, for the
sake of adding to the unanimity and
harmony of the Republican party
Mr.. Blaisdell accepted the nomination
of secretary of state.
Mr.. BlaisdeIl was at the head of g
prominent law firm and investment

so many have been, the fact remains
that the fortune has gone from this
country.
The remedy which Congressman
SABBATH has devised to check this de-
vastating onslaught takes the form of
tax of twenty-five per cent. on the
dowry settlements. This revenue
would equalize matters somewhat, he
| thinks, and act as a check upon the
fortune-hunting industry. His propo

A,Boquet for j. M. KeIIy

Attention is called to the ADVERTISE
ment Of President Jos. M. Kelly of the
Farmers Line on the 9Th page of this
paper. President Kelly has been in
North Dakota for about 80 years and
has probably done as much as any
other one man to develop and settle up
the; state. He was one of the prime
and original movers in the building Of
the Farmers Railroad, task accom-
plished wholly by farmers, and for the
past twelve years has been at the
head of that enterprise as manager
and chief director. His only object in
advertising the resources of our great
state is to let the world know just
what we have to offer and at what
price. While he is heavy dealer in
lands himself, and has probably locat:
ed as many farmers as the next one
yet land selling has never been an oc
cupation with him, and he only
handles it to be in position to aid the
worthy farmer when he strikes the
country and wants to settle down tc
farming. Mr.. Kelly is man of noble
and generous impulses, Is farsee-ing
and has an abiding faith In the rich
resources of this section of the coun
try, peculiarly adapted to the small
and thrifty farmer. We hope ou1
friends in the east who read this pa
per will write Mr.. Kelly for any infor
nation about the country and its lands
IT, they feel in any way interested
Take our word for it, now is the tims
to-, strike North Dakota for farming
purposes.
There are many opportunities To-
Investment both in farming and In bust
ness. We need more people, there Il
yet room for thousands, and men. o
the right stamp need never fear ven
..ture into North Dakota. Successe,

another state candidate in that coun.
|ty, 1t is generally conceded that. Mr..
Blaisdell's friends WILDE more de-
voted and more faithful to his can
didacy than ever. @,>2 =
His candidacy for reelection is not
submitted to the people Of the state
through an alleged platform" of
meaningless and glittering gener-
alities. The voters are merely re-
ferred to the record he has made dur
ing his incumbency. And the voters
are referred the fact that he has tho
roughly systematized his department,
and has brought to the department OF
state an absolute business admins
tration. A.,
| When these matters are reviewed
it will be admitted he has made an
enviable record as secretary of state:
that he Is young man who has made
Exceptional progress in political and
business life, and whose future is only
limited in it's success by the energy
of his efforts.
It has long been an established GUS
tom to favor state officers with two
terms where their record has been &C
ceptable and satisfactory, and this be
ing true of Mr.. Blaisdell, little or nj
question remains but what he will, b.
renominated and reelected by rous
ing majority, because his administra
ton has been enthusiastically an
unanimously Endorsed.
