Commodore Wilder's wren won
the event by big margin, and the
Galloping Mary managed to get
into second place. finishing twenty
minutes later. The Roaring Gim-
let was away behind in third place,
but was as good as becalmed at the
time the first boat finished.
The race started at noon. when
there was no sign of the weather
breaking a little. and a fair breeze
was blowing. The Mary crossed
the line first. with the Wilder boat
second and the Gimlet third.
Up to the whistling buoy the
boats kept In the same order, but
from there to the spar buoy Wild
er's wren gained a lot on the rest
Of the bunch. About the quarantine
dolphin the Mary and Gimlet got
into a mixup. and the Wilder hook
er gained a lot more on the other
two.
On the run down all the boats
made good time as far as the spar
buoy. and the breeze kept up pref
ty well. Then the rain came down
In torrents, and the race resolved
itself into drifting match for the
rest of the distance to be covered
by the boats.
II was bad day for the sailing
race, and only the keenest o.
watermen would have faced the in
clement weather. But the wreI
men are not easily frightened an'
they will turn out In any kind o
weather as long as there is an.
wind at all.
The Sanford prize was competed
for In yesterdays race. and II wen
to the winner. II was thought tina
four boats would sail In the race
hut only three faced the starter
More wrens are being built, and
may be that In the near future 81

course.

law to prevent the purchase of IL
ouor from firms outside the state
and the shipping of it into the state
for private use. AS long as this traf'
fic is possible, and it will unless the
federal government passes law to
forbid the shipment Of liquor into a
prohibition state, persons who buy
liquor are entitled to have good H.
quor and not poisonous stuff con-
cocted in the cellar of some whole
saler.
1t has been said that all whiskey
is good and some is better than
others. 1t might, perhaps, more
aptly be said that all whiskey is bad
and some is immeasurably worse
than other. 1t is entirely wlluln the
province of the state to regulate the
kind of liquor that can be shipped
into and sold in the state, for med
icinal and proper purposes, and it is
entirely proper for the state pure
food commissioner to recommend to
a private consumer that he ought to
get good whiskey, if he intends to
buy whiskey at all.

There is an old fable about dog
crossing a stream with bit Of meat
in his mouth The reflection of the
meat in: the water looked bigger, so
he opened his mouth to grasp the
bigger piece and the bit he already
had foated down the stream and
sank. With some changes, the fable
might be made to fit the case Of
young Engel of Butte, Nebraska,
who seems to have lost his chance of
selecting the first of 10000 claims on
the reservation lands in North and
South Dakota. The difference is
that he was carrying in his mind the
image of golden possibilities in the
reservation drawing, when he came
upon the real thing in the shape Of
a homestead in Trip county. He
took the real thing and the image
he had carried became a golden real
ity, but his anxiety TO get the real
thing deprives him of his chance to
file for Claim No. 1. All of which
shows that there is no reliance
whatever to be placed on fables.
Engel thought the sure thing was
better than the shadow, and it de-
veloped that the shadow was the
real thing after all.

NOT INCONSISTENT.

These days we note occasional at
tacks upon the prohibition law that
gain circulation through the state
under the guise of news" items,
and good many of them come from
McCluskey, q up In Mclean county.
Either there Is an ardent anti-pro-
hibitionist up that way who is con-
Quoting a propaganda for the anti
prohibition cause, or the real source
of the news items in question is
concealed beneath a McClusky date
line.,
The latest anti-prohibition sermon
from McCluskey deals with the in
consistency of the attitude Of the
state pure food commissioner in re.
quiring whistles to be analysed and
numbered before their sale will be
permitted in the state and recon-
mending that purchasers of whiskey
look for the department number be-
fore buying. r.. 4. +. =:

CHANCE TO MAKE GOOD.

Aberdeen American: That was a
queer turn of fortune which has de-
prived the winner of No. 1 in the
land drawing of his right to this
choice of the reservation farms and
given the grand prize to No. 2, a
negro porter, who took a chance"
1t certainly goes TO prove the fact
that the government draws no color
line and is ample evidence of the i'm
Partially of the methods which are
employed under the supervision of
Judge Witten.
There is no reason why Bowdry
cannot make good farmer if he
will. At any rate he has the chance
of lifetime now to try it. Booker
T. Washington, the great leader of
the colored people, says that the sal
walton of that race is in industry,
and it is to be hoped that this young
man will be able to make good. This
great stroke of luck for him will test
him, probably, more than hardships
have done, and he has chance to
make good in the eyes of the world.
News of the prize going to the me-
gro is received with sneers, scouting
the ability of the man to deserve his
good fortune.
If he is any kind of man he will
realize that this is his opportunity
not only to make good for himself,
but to prove the ability of a race
which demands many things, but in
some instances fails to measure up
to the responsibility required. -
Here is one man who has better
than any other in the start. The rest
remains with him to prove his own
and his races worth

"DRY" FARMING.

We cannot see that there is any
thing particularly odious in the term
"dry farming" 1t doesn't mean
anything in particular, and it doesn't
do any particular harm, except per-
haps to some oversensitive real es-
tate men and dealers in land who
fear it may give wrong idea of the
country. But real estate is not be-
ing bought these days altogether
through attractive literature. Pur-
chasers are inclined to look into any
propositions that are offered, and
satisfy themselves as to the value
of the land before they purchase.
Everybody knows OR ought to
know about what the rainfall is in
various sections of the country.
There are records available from
which it can be learned. Sensible
investors know, too, with what
amount of rainfall a crop can be ma
For number of years it was claimed
that in the western part of this state
the rainfall was deficient. For the
past seven years the best crops in
the state have been raised on the
extreme western edge of North Da-
kota. The people out there have
gotten opulent and prosperous.
All of which proves that there is
plenty of rainfall in all parts of this
state to mature crop, if it is prop
erly distributed. Now the secret of
dry farming is to, insure that that
rainfall shall be properly distribu,
by making the best use of every inch
of it-tilling the soil so that all of
the rain shall go into the ground and
then covering up the lower soil with
a blanket that shall resist the capil-
larry inclination of the moisture to
seek the surface. It's purely a mat
ter of common sense and prudence,
and every farmer in the western part
of this state should get in touch with
the system. " ,r.s. T. at = -, >-fa
The time: is past when we have to
make any apologies for North Dako-
ia. The state has made good. It
will continue to make good if the
soil gets intelligent treatment. W
need more wisdom and skill in the
treatment of our soil, and the adjust
ment of our farming operations. We
have the soil, the climate, and the
rainfall. 1t is up to our farmers to
make the best use or them
Whether it is called dry farming
or wet farming Or blue farming or
green farming doesn't make any
difference. The important thing is
to impress on our people that it is
possible to make farming in the
western part of this state pretty
nearly sure thing. The sooner we
do this and the quicker we get our
farmers to adopting the methods that
experience and common sense have
recommended, the more good we
shall have done the state.

speculation again today, following the
volatile movement of Saturday. ina the
appearance Of things was decidedly
confused was taken for granted, and the
abundant resources that were displayed
made the smaller following Of habitual

The dullness into which the market fell
from time to time was due partly to large
reduction of the outstanding short interest
by the covering operations responsible for
the buoyant rise in prices Saturday, The
the days session was perfunctory, had Its
usual restraining effect on the speculative
spirit. II was understood at the outsel
that the presidents message would not
be presented, and the stock market be-
iievsd itself to be accurately Informed on
the contents Of that document. The sO0th-
ing effect OF that snpPose knqwiedge
that IL was to be followed at an early date
by other special messages, devoted more
exclusively to the topics in which the
stock market takes a particular interest
Another sudden drop in American Sugar
showing lack of support for that stock
was regarded as suggestive and helped to
promp a selling movement OF wider scope,
At the same time there was aggressive
demand for other particular stocks whieh
market irregular and unsettled. There was
occasional demand for Reading, with in
sistent assertions that a dividend increase
was near at hand. Sales Of Rock Island
preferred at 80 made a new record for that
stock, due to reiterated reports that II
would soon go on a 5 per cent dividend
basis.
