POLLOCK ON PERMITS.

Under the new drug permit law the
district judges are given the power of
czars. They have the authority to
grant or reject applications for per-
mits and-unlike other cases-there IS
no appeal from their decision.
Some of the district judges dislike
the extra work imposed upon them.
others do not believe that the law is
constitutional Some have granted
numerous permits, while others boast
they have not acted favorably on a.
single application
Judge Pollock of this district had
only one before him from Cass county
and that was denied. The court as
signed as one of the chief reasons for
refusal that here seemed to be no de-
mand for the sale of liquor in the vi
cinity from which the application
came.
There is one point in a dictated in
terview by Judge Pollock which has
aroused considerable comment 1t is
possible that the language of the
court may be misinterpreted.
The Objectionable sentence was that
the financial condition of an applicant
might be such that he might be in
duced by reason of money considera-
lions to take chances on violating the
law
Some people wonder If Judge Pol
lock meant to say that a poor man
couldn't be honest-or that personal
integrity depended on the size of a
mans bank account.
1t is unlikely that the court thought
such a construction would be placed
on his language. Being man of wide
experience he would not be expected
to hold such a pessimistic view of
human nature.

FARGO CHURCHES.

The Forum is now running a series
of articles on Fargo churches. Some
important facts have been secured by
the reporter. They demonstrate that
while Fargo is so prominent in an
educational, financial and a commerce
lal way--it is even more so in relig-
ious matters.
Fargo is the head of the Catholic
diocese, the Episcopal diocese and of
one Of the three great divisions of the
Methodist church of the state.
There are twenty -four church or
CARNATIONS in the city and all but
two of these have their own places
of worship.
There is an active church member
ship of some 5000. over 5000 chill
dren attend Sunday schools in this
city and about 1000 young people be-
long to other affiliated church organ
cations.
1t is a big showing and one in
which church the religious workers of
Fargo are entitled to feel pardon
able pride.
The Forum will give a sketch of
the organization and present condition
Of each Of the local churches in a
Series of articles.

GUARANTEEING DEPOSITS.

The recent big bank failure in Okla
homa has attracted much attention.
Advocates Of the bank guaranty have
proudly pointed to the fact that the
new law will save the depositors from
loss. Here is a conservative view
from The New York Journal of Com
merce:
Although the bank commissioner OF
Oklahoma is confident that the deposi+
guarantee system is working admir-
ably and everybody is happy over A.
there is a possibility that he In NOT

tee law and not to the characer of the

An assistant pastor may often be
necessary, but it is much more impor-

chief sources and functions Of the
preachers power.
What are the complaining metropol-

manufactured by the churches them

TAFT AND THE souTH.


President Taft win soon invade tn,
southern states In the completion Of
his Swing around tho circle" Sew.
eral days will be spent in the sunny
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES the big president Ii
already Immensely popular.
1t is one of the chief ambitions OF
Mr. Taft to create more pleasant re-
lations with ethe south. He does not
assume to settle off-hand the negro or
other problems which confront the
southerners-bu ne hopes to reach a
better understanding--to be instru-
mental in the creation OF sentiment
against mob violence-and for 9. square
deal for the black man.
1t is not the highest aim OF the pres
ident TO break the solid SOUTH po-
litically, though that is among the
possibilities, with the rapid advance
ment being made there in manufac-
turing. The republican party does not
require the south to win political cleo
tions. 1t needs the south far less than
the south needs to take fair share
In the responsibilities and the rewards
Of the government
In regard to the political relations
between the south and President TAFT.
Secretary of War Dickinson aptly and
fairly expressed he situation in his
recent speech at the Tennessee state
fair at Nashville. as follows:
No question Of the south giving him
political support is involved, The
south can Cooperate with him In his
great work of Cancellation and pro-
noting peace and harmony, and yet
cast every one of it's electoral votes
against him If ne should become
candidate for recollection. am con-
hdent that no thought OF winning it's
votes has influenced his course toward
the south, and that even IL he ex-
pected to become candidate to sue
coed himself he would, though conf
dent that the south would vote
against him, do exactly what he has
done, deeming 1t sufficient reward IL
he brings peace where dfscord pre-
vailed, and establishes a sounder basis

tons that affect the relations between
the races in the south

TO PROTECT GIRLS.

The Forum some time ago referred
to the difficulties postmasters were
having on general delivery mail one
Of the chief evils is the way married
women and very youthful girls carry
on ciandestine correspondence.
Postmaster Barnes OF washington
discovers that he has hard problem
to solve in this connection. According
to recent dispatches he finds that mar
ried women are carrying on CORES
pondence under fictitious names and
that girls under 16 are doing the same
thing. He is seeking to save the girls
by requiring them to explain their
reasons for failure to have their mail
sent to their homes. The replies are
usually elusive and unsatisfactory
but sometimes the inquiry has the de-
sired result of stopping the dangerous
correspondence.

MONARCHY FACING

SPANISH REPUBLICAN PREDICTS
REVOLUTION WILL SWEEP
THROUGH KINGDOM.

Paris, Oct. "a whirlwind Of revo-
luton that will sweep the last vestige
on monarchical rule from Spain is the
prediction Of Alexander Lerronx, one
of the Spanish republican leaders.
Lerroux passed through Paris TODAY
hurrying to Madrid to join the coun-
ellis of his compariots. Lerroux char
acterized conditions in Spain as 'fn-
describable'
The execution of Garcia. one of the
leading republicans of Catalonia" ex-
claimed Lerroux, was nothing less
than murder. He was put to death
without the least opportunity of de-
Tending himself. Ferrer, another of
the revolutionary leaders, will meet
the same fate. He is certain to be
held guilty of the charge against him.
There are some $500 men and women
in the dungeons of Barcelona prisons.
They have been there since the July
riots. awaiting trial That phrase Is
a mockery. They will never be tried
With the liberty Of the country
gone, revolution is the inevitable con-
sequence and the liberties of the SPAN
ish people have been gradually taken
from them until now nothing remains.
AS sure as tomorrow follows TODAY.
Spain win be swept by a bloody revo-
luton"
Lerroux dwelt at length upon the
suspension OF constitutional guaran-
tees throughout the Spanish provinces
and said that the action as much AZ
anything else was widespread disaf

The accumulation OF gas In the stom-
ach is caused In the following ways:
l. 1t may be swallowed in large guam

tons Of the stomach and food tract

ton OF food in the alimentary system

gitated from the duodenum or frst
portion Of the small intesttnes, and In
some cases from flstulous communi-
cation with the large intestine. s. Gas
of an extremely offensive kind is pro-
duced by the decomposition of a morbid
growth in the stomach, such as cancer,
ulcer, tumor. etc. Z. Some forms of
food are more prone than others to
cause stomach gas, including sugar,
starch, beans. peas, etc.
To relieve the distressing symptoms
Of gaseous distension OF the stomach
no matter what the cause may be, it
has been found by numerous expert
ments that the most reliable and valu-
able remedy Is charcoal which directly
absorbs all gaseous substances in the
alimentary system, besides oxidizing
and destroying foul doors, and anti
septically cleaning the stomach and
intestinal system from one end to the
other as thoroughly as soap and water
cleanses the skin.
The late DR.. Leared OF England
strongly advocated the use of willow
charcoal in the form OF lozenges for
the alienation of such stomach symp-
toms as Indigestion, fermentation, de-
composition and bloating 1t has also
been found extremely serviceable in
