John Burke, Of North Dakota.
Buffalo, New York, October, 1909.

tratlonS The prohibition law was regard
ed as a dead letter as something which
had to D tolerated, though not neces-
sarl'y enforced or respected
Governor Burke took the ground that
every consideration of patriotism and
good citizenship required that all the
laws be enforced. This contention was
one OF the features of his campaign
The proposition was not openly disputed
by the republicans, but it was recogniz-
ed that notwithstanding their party
declarations to the contrary, they had
consistently "winked" at the shameful,
persistent violations of this law.

HalIen's Comet.

11aiiSJ > &ciIIcI.
The announcement from Heidelberg
that Halley's comet has been sighted
adds enc more item of scientific inter-
est to the present year. Halley's com.
ct becomes visible to the earth at
about seventy or eighty year periods,
and there have been records of it for
1000 years. William the Conqueror,
who seemed 10 be ready to turn any
thing into a good omen. seized on this
comet as II favorable sign when he
was invading Britain. At "A later pc
Rod the Christians of Europe regard
ed it as an evil portemt of the victory
of the Moslems. and the pope issued q
bull forbidding belief in the comet.
In the latter part of the seventeenth
century Edmund HALEY, an English
astronomer. identified the comet Will
its previous appearances and from
this figured out its elliptical orbit and
predicted its mex return. AS it was
the first comet with which this huC
been done, 'he discovery marked /;
great forward step in Astronomical
science.
The appearances of Halley's come
are in a measure eccentric-that is. th,
period of return varies a few years
This has been ascribed to the intiuenc
of Jupiter and the other great planet
in the outer rim of the solar system
The present appearance is a little i
advance Of the expected time. TIL

Accident While Threshine.

Saturday evening about dusk while re-
turning to the LeBrun farm, after
threshing, Oscar LeBrun slipped from q
rack loaded with grain sheaves. Strik-
ing the ground he received a blow from
the heels of one of the horses he was
driving. The blow shattered the bone
near the right eye and left the man
dazed and unconscience for half an
hour. His team went the remaining
three-quarters of a mile of the distance
home alone leaving their driver behind.
LeBrun reached the house over an hour
later covered with blood and suffering
intense pain. Medical aid was got from
Langdon and on advice he was taken to
the Forks on Sunday for hospital treat
ment by his brother Ed. LeBrun, the
trip being made via automobile to
Lakota thence to Grand Forks by train.
1t is reported that the hospital doctors
state he will be able to return home
thoroughly we'll again in two weeks.

coupled with brilliancy of mind and
devotion to the highest professional
Ideals he soon acquired a place in the
front rank OF his profession and estab-
llshed a reputation as one of the best
trial lawyers in the state. The splendid
legal training OF Governor Burke has
undoubtedly been of great assistance to
him IN the consideration of the many
administrative problems presented dur
ing his incumhency Of the Office of
Governor.
AS a public speaker, he is clear in
statement, apt in illustration, logical and
convincing in argument. He has the
Lincoln faculty.of using a story to point
a moral, and his intense earnestness
and convincing honesty gives to his
most commonplace utterance on matters
of public concern an absorbing interest
that is extraordinary.

l''' SI37 School,!

Tuesday morning the High school
was surprised and very much pleased
with an address from a gentleman from
the Island of Ceylon. Mr.. TIssera is a
native of Ceylon. Considering the
short time he had to speak, he told us a
great deal about his country, his
countrymen, the government, religion
and customs. His talk was very in
teresting as we'll as beneficial. The
students we're all sorry to see him go
and they will remember the message he
left, "To do good and be good"
The boys of the High School are still
practicing track work, but it is expected
that work in foot ball will begin next
week.
In the new music class recently form
ed, MIR. Haseltine has found many good
voices, among them being one exception
ally fine BARITONE.
Tuesday evening some of the students
spent a very delightful time in the
school room, being entertained by some
new records on the graphaphone.
In the death of George Alpstag, the
boys and girls of the Langdon schools
have sustained a great loss He was a
friend we'll known by most OF the school.

session were used by the High School

The Cook-Peary controversy is by no

claimed that Columbus was not the
first to discover America, the Morse
having found it nearly 500 years ear
1ier. 1t is claimed that Hudson did
not discover the Hudson river. but
that an italian saw it almost a cen

Rumsey beat him to it. 1t is claimed
that Professor Bell did not invent the

ahead of him. And so it goes. There

Opera house on Monday evening, May
8 by a cast composed entirely of local
talent under the direction Of Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. B. Van Duger Of New York
1t is claimed by many that "Pinafore'
is the best of Gilbert and Sullivan's
many successful operas; be that as il
may it has stood the test of years and
during the past season it was renewed
in New York and played for six weeks
to audiences that tested the capacity
of the theatre nightly.
Mr. and Mrs Van Duger, who are to
stage the opera here, are both we'll
known in the world of comic opera and
musical comedy.
Mr.. and Mrs. Van Duger bring with
them complete production including
all of the special scenery. costumes
and light effects all of which are so
necessary for the proper presentation
of this opera.
