WHO RUNS THE Newspapers

The fact thst after july 1st whiskey
advertising in North Dakota papers will
be prohibited by state law is likely to
bring a law suit to test the heconstitution-
ality of the Law. While the whiskey
law in itself has no interest for us, and
in fact for few state papers because only
a few papers in this state accept such
advertising, it might be we'll to have
some court decisions as to just how
much power the legislature has in pro-
hibitiRg or admitting advertising in
newspapers. Some people seem to think
that a newspaper is governed by some
such rules as common carriers like rail-
roads, and have to accept any and all
advertising, unless there are moral or le-
gal reasons why they should not be
published
The legislature has in several eases al
ready fixed certain arbitrary prices on
illegal" advertising which are observed
by the publishers without question
rather because the rates are about right
than that the legislature has any par
ticular right to make the rates. For in
stance the legislature has made the
price of chattel mortgage advertise
ments $500. This price might be alright
as between the original litigants, but we
don't believe that the publisher need
publish such advertisements at
that price unless he wishes. If that ad-
vertisement should be half column
or more long the legal rate would be RI
diculous. In other cases the legislature
has imposed certain legal duties to be
done by the publisher, notably in the
case of estrays, and we doubt very much
if the Legislature has the power to make
it the duty of a private individual to
thus become quasi-public official.
1t is certainly somewhat of mooted
question whether newspaper is pub
lie or private affair, and it would be we'll
to have the matter settled.

Patten got out from under May wheat,
but now it is higher than ever. Wheat
don't need Patten this year. MIR. Patten
figured that when wheat sells for a dol
lar bushel or more about threshing
time that farmers don't wait for higher
prices. Consequently he was right, that
the farmers had but little wheat in their
hands. Wheat was the highest for the
year in Chicago on Monday, s1.3O for
May. Another thing that has proven
Mr.. P. right in his predictions is that
cash wheat has lead speculative wheat
from one to three cents all the time.

Editor Lampman of the Chronotype
argues for the length of half column
that a dollar spent in Chicago is of more
value to the home town than if spent in
town. We have neither time or incli-
nation to argue with person who has
persuaded himself of such conclusion.
If such were the fact, then the editor of
the Chronotype should at once remove
his type and presses to the island of
Juan Fernandez and become a second
Robinson Crusoe-for that is the logical
extreme of his opinion.

There are lot of people who don't
care much whether State Superintend-
ent Stockwell is tried for misappropria-

to see that particular statute that seems
to have authorized the said appropria-
ton brought before the court and if it
is found guilty, sentenced to solitary
confinement for life or otherwise exc
cuted.

Did Some Good Work.

Game Warden Fleming in a shrewd
little piece of detective work, swamped
down on Cedar Lake resort yesterday
evening and found enough evidence on
the premises to convict the proprietor
of a serious infringement of the game
laws. Last week he received informa-
ton that the law was being broken by
Cedar Lake fishers. and upon the no
tice started an investigation with the
result that John Genzler was caught
red handed with two nets in his poses
sion; one measuring forty feet and the
other eighty. A fish spear was also
found on the premises and the find Will
be offered in evidence at the hearing to
take place in Judge Nicholson's court
at 9 o'clock this morning. Other Cedar
Lake residents are liable to become
implicated, as it is said that nets OF
this size cannot be operated by one
man alone. The result of the case was
a fine of SHIPS for Genzler

WHITING NEWS
A Great Celebration.

The celebration in honor of the
adoption of the constitution in Poland,
lis years ago, took place in Whiting
on Sunday on rather elaborate scale.
These are annual celebrations, but
the different cities have formerly par
ticipated in them alone. This year
was, however, much different for the
various cities in the Calumet region
Joined in one mammoth celebration,
and Chicago people also came out, TAX
ing an active part.
The days pleasure opened with
large parade There were nine orders
turned out, each being represented by
brass bands, sevral men on horse back,
and all told there were full 700 persons
in the procession.
The Polish cavalry and the Hammond
cadets, in their military outfits, made
most attractive appearance, when
everything is taken into consideration
it was the best turnout seen in Whit
ing for many a day.
After marching around town for over
an hour, the Frankowski hall, John
street and White Oak avenue, was
reached, and it was here that the par
ty disbanded and where the celebration
was concluded
The program opened with an excel
lent address by Mr.. Slowiski, who
was master of ceremonies. and he was
followed by Walter Bukowski, who is
president
There were several other speakers
on, some of these being DR.. R. o. Os-
| trowski of Hammond; Mr. Dangell.
manager of the Polish Daily News.
Chicago. and DR.. W. F. Howatt of
Hammond
Those having the affair in charge
want to especially thank DR.. Howatt
for his address, it dealing with the nu-
merous eminent Polish people, of whom
he said the race have every reason to
! be proud.
The Chopin Singing society Of Chica =
| go. consisting of twenty men, were in

entitled Patriots" was given, and was
fully enjoyed.
Two excellent tableaux were given
after which the program was conclud-
| ed by an acrobatic performance by
members of Turner's lodge, No. 2, OF
Chicago.
The Whiting members feel indebted
to the Polish people from the sur
rounding cities. for participating, ant
for making this day one to go down il
the annals Of the race as one long Il
