suRkE's SITUATION.

The Minneapolis Journal OF Wednes-
day contained an editorial on the sem
sational situation in North Dakota
along the same line as The Forum OF
Tuesday regarding the position in
which Governor Burke finds himself
1t says:
The Importance to the democracy Of
electing northern governors Is shown
In the chance that occasionally comes
to them of appointing democratic SEN
ators. Gov. John Burke has such a
chance now. Governor Lind had 1t ten
years ago In Minnesota. A democratic
governor had 1t several years ago in
Oregon. In all Of these states there
was q republican legislature which
would have elected a republican, If it
had been in session. The democratic
chance was therefore an accident None
OF the men selected represented an
actual constituency and none Of them
survived the term for which he was
appointed.
Governor Burke Ii said to have un-
der consideration the appointment Of a
republican to succeed the late Senator
Johnson. He could justify such Sc
lection by the fact that the people
when they last voted, voted for a re-
publican. He could cite a precedent in
Minnesota, for Governor Lind, when
he had to name successor to Senator
Davis, offered the place to a republican
before he named democrat.
Whether an executive is bound to
favor his own party in such an emer-
gency as has arisen, or, whether he
ought to look at the question broadly,
and bind himself by the verdict of the
last preceding election Is a moot ques-
ton. Governor Burke is in a delicate
position. If he does not name a re-
publican he may be accused of throw
ing away the influence Of the state for
two years to please a partizan. II he
does not appoint democrat he may
be accused of recreancy TO thte organ
ization which made him governor.

10 Frederick Bowers scored a hit at the
Fargo operaheuse last night with Com
mencement Days. The production was
hurried and somewhat cut, as the com
pany wanted to catch an east bound
train, but DESPITE the abbreviation it
was pleasing. Mr.. Bowers was here in
The Har2 Tree and later in vaudeville
and his work last night fully maintain
ed his popularity. The production is a
mixture of meiodram" and comedy
with some good songs thrown in. Oil
vette Haynes, the petite soubrette, who
has been here before, made hit in her
song, Am Looking for a Sweetheart
Jane Corcoran as Kate Wells was es-
pecially good and the rest OF the COM
pany were fully up to the requirements.

SPLENDID OPPORTUNITIES.

The boys of the state are beginning
TO realize the magnificent opportunities
pfered by the North Dakota AgrAcul-
ra al college in Fargo. The courses are
so varied and practical-cOTertng so
many points OF every day life that the
gr duate has an earning capacity the
da ne leaves the institution.
Unlike the graduates OF the large
IN iversities and ordinary colleges
WHO are united for practical work
until they take some professional
coarses-the A. C. graduate has job
waiting for him. He doen't even have
TO hunt for it. The positions seek him
and the remuneration in many in
stances is of a most satisfactory ma
ture.
The department at Washington is
looking for men OF technical training
and have every promising boy spotted
for government service If he can be
persuaded to enter It. Large interests
in this and other states are quickly
grabbing the boys as they are ready
to leave the institution.
Many of the men who have complet-
ed courses at the A. c. are going out
through the state assuming charge oil
big enterprises and doing a missionary
educational work. Bvery graduate
who makes a success is an inspiration
to some farmer boy TO do the same
thing. Every student of the A. C. who
can return to the farm and start Inn
y proved methods, raise httle better
3 crops than his neighbors, finer colts
and fatter cattle-is a big advertise.
nent for the state agricultural college
He demonstrates It's great practica
value.

CORRESPONDENCE
SCHOOL and LABOR
THIS SYSTEM or EDUCATION Is
DISCUSSED BY EDUCATION
COMMITTEE OF FEDORA
TON OF LABOR.

Washington, ID. C. Oct. 29.-At the
meeting of the committee on industrial
education Of the American Federation
of Labor at the Arlington hotel re-
Gently, the subject of trade schools.
manual training schools. the appren-
tice system and the system OF indust-
rial education through correspondence
schoolsswas thoroughly considered.
The scarcity of skilled workmen is a
matter of deepest concern not only
to the manufacturer, but also to the
trades unions who desire to furnish
this skilled labor The speakers DIFF
ferentiated between the tlifferent
schools by pointing out that the man
ual training and trade school system
as well, were principally designed to
ut the raw material to become me-
chanics while the correspondence
schools were chiefly in giving techni-
cal education to mechanics who had
not had the advantage of theoretical
training. 1t was the first time that
the subject OF correspondence schools
had been fully presented to the Amer
lean Federation OF Labor, the address
on this occasion being delivered by
Louis A. Osborne. of Scranton, who
was invited by the chairman. John
Mitchell, to speak on the topic Of
Correspondence Instruction.
Mr.. Osborne said that correspond
ence instruction mad come into exist
ence as a practical and separate sys-
tenn of education within the reach OF
every working man, to quality him to
fill the advanced positions that mod
ern industrial conditions had created,
and was not a substitute or nakeshift
for some other system of study.
1t IL designed to reach a class Of
men whom education can reach IN no
other way and is fulfilling its mission
most admirably as testified to b.
thousands Of employers and employees.
Far from interfering with the manual
training, trade schools or apprentice
systems, II supplemented them by or
fering them higher education along the
same practical Inca

RACE SUICIDE.

Nd Bertillon, the French expert who
gave the world the Bertillon system of
scientific psychical measurements, has
performed another service for his
country. Whether 1t will be received
with shouts of acclaim Is doubtful, for
il does not reflect great credit upon
the supposed brainy classes of the
French republic. NJ. BertiIlon has made
an exhaustive analysis OF the vital
statistics of his country and lnds that
If the pace set in race suicide by the
well-to-d do people should be adopted
by the poor it would be only a question
of time when France would be de-
populated. # ~. 80 \.
For Instance, NJ Bertillon has com
piled a list OF the 445 best known fam
lilies OF France, showing the number OF
children they have now living. The en-
tire AS families have but SIS children.
II the rest of the people Of the republic
were to bear no more children than
the foremost families, Mr.. Bertillon
estimates that the total population
would be reduced by one-half within
thirty years.
Continuing his study OF the best
known families, says an exchange. M.
Bertilton divides them into classes. He
finds there are ninety -four artists,
whose children number but 104. Only
eleven Of the artists have more. than
two children each. The literary group
Il composed of La people, whose chill
dFen number bat 1877. Sixty-five OF
them are ehtldless. He finds that the
IN politicians among the best known
families have 1913 children. Twenty
three prominent business men have
thirty-ntne children. TShirtyIrhree
government officials have fifty-four
children and fifty-one persons classed
as in miscellaneous occupations have
fifty four children.
It Is also noticed by other figures
given tnat the poorer the people the
more children they have. Much incer-
esttng discussion might be adduoed
from this condition, but the most
patent fact Is the very evident concIu-
sion that the richer classes Of women
OF France are much like those of
America and other countries in their
views of the duty Of womanhood. True.
the Weather people lose fewer chill
dren than the poorer. but why ia that
an argument that they should have
more and the poorer people fewer? If
they are the more Intelligent the
Weather people must bear the rsspon-
sibility for the condition revealed by
ID. BeFtslion's statistics--a condition
which undoubtedly exists in every ma
ton In the world.

Many Of Them Happening Every Day
but Soon Forgotten.

Close shaves would be of more FREE
quent occurrence but for the tender
faces Of many men, which will not
permit OF shaving often. Heretofore.
nothing has been said in these coll
umns about posIam, new skin dis
covery, in connection with its use after
shaving. Its publicity and sales have
been confined almost exclusively to its
remarkable properties as an eczema
cure; II stops the itching at once and
cures the worst cases In a few days.
While the application OF poslam after
shaving Is one of its minor uses, such
as for pimples, the complexion, etc,
shavers will find II revelation, as 1t
does for abrasions, roughness, and Sc

article possessing real antiseptic and
curative value that has ever been ex-
plotted for this purpose, and will soothe

aration could possibly do.
