vention Chicago will entertain the
federation council, which meets dur
ing the intervening years between the
biennials, next year. The choice OF
the convention city for the next BIZ
enniaI will be decided by the board of
representative on the board, the lot
will probably fall to either one of the
western cities offered.
The following story of accidents at
the convention is told: Just prior to
the assembling of the delegates, the
last meeting to perfect all arrange
ments for the entertainment of guests.
Mrs. Maxwell, chairman of the board,
on her way to the meeting, fell and
broke her arm. She was taken to a
hospital, had the fracture splintered
preside at its close and to acquaint
herself with the arrangements made.
Her bravery and pluck were warmly
applauded and there was talk of max
ing her president On the third day
previous to the close of the biennial
for the visitors and just as she was
leaving she slipped on the polished
floor, fell and broke her ankle. The
injury was painful and severe and no
one thought of seeing her again at any
of the meetings Now the last night
of the convention is always the "presi-
dents night" when all arrangements
for entertainment are in her hands.
When the guests assembled and the
curtain went uD Mrs. Moore was on
the platform in the chair in which she
had been wheeled to the meeting. She
conducted the session just as If the ac-
cident had not happened. The first
heroine then shared the honors with
the second, and Mrs. Moore was re-
elected president

The clubs which close their sessions
for the summer have had their field
days, their picnics and final meetings,
SO that there is really very little to re-
port in th> way of local club activities.
The Good Government club is making
Hans for its program for next year I'M
der tho direction of its new president,
Miss Maude Mary Kline.
The Forestry club has no summer
vacation, but takes its holiday during
December just before Christmas time.
During the summer the club meets
with such of it's members as live at
country homes, thus combining a short
outing with the business of the meet
ing. At the next session, the club will
perfect arrangements for the buildings
to be erected at the north and south
entrances of Willow park, providing a
comfortable resting and waiting room,
besides identifying the grounds.
Immediately after the return of the
new City Federation president, Mrs. A.
A. GODDARD, from Poughkeepsie, N. Y,
where she is attending the graduation
of her daughter, Miss Guenn GODDARD,
from VaSSar college, a meeting of the
former and the newly elected officers
and executive board will be held at the
home of the outgoing president, Mrs.
Lee Monroe, and plans for the next
years work will be discussed, and the
unfinished business of the past year
transferred to the new administration.

Saturday Evening Posts Opinion.

The Saturday Evening Post
probably has as large a circula-
ton as any magazine or news
paper in the country. The
editor is broad minded man
and he has made a study of the
needs of the farmer. In it's
issue of March rs was publish
ed an editorial inspection of
Grain. 1t was concise and to
the point. An excerpt from the
editorial will likely interest
the grain growers of this state.
It is as follows: Senator Nc
Cumber has introduced bill
for the uniform federal inspec-
ton and grading of grain.
Such inspection would, no
doubt, command confidence at
home and respect abroad.
Yet we read that the boards
of trade have representatives
at Washington opposing the
bill. They sayit is paternalist-
ic which means merely that
they can't think of anything g
else to call it. To whom would
uniform, impartial federal in
spection be less profitable than
the present arrangement? Not
to grain growers certainly, nor
to consumers of grain"
This is certainly a strong
endorsement of Senator Nc
Cumber's efficient work in be-
half of the Flickertail grain
growers.
Now, just why do the farm
ers want different system of
inspecting grain? Shippers to
terminal points have discover
ed that their heavy dockages
for dirt, so called, that the
dockage assessed frequently
has no fair relation to the
actual amount of foreign mat
ter in the grain. The grain is
docked right or wrong. The
loss to the farmers of this state
from this one source of robbery
is estimated al $2,OOO.OOO an
nually. Then again the grad
ing, much of the grain that
goes into the elevators as num-
Der two and three is shipped
out as number one. This state
ment has been made by men
fully informed on the subject.
The losses to the farmers in
this state from thieving devices
at terminal points is conserva-
lively estimated at So, 600, 600
annually. Is it then to be won
dered, that there has gone up a

an party from power. And the
consequence will be, if it's eff
forts are successful, that the
>Tribune will no longer point
eth pride to the prosperity Of
farmers Of the nation-fo
! armer has not been pros
pt Jus, since the civil war,
when the democratic party has
been in power"
The attitude of the Sioux
City Tribune is similar to that
of a number of our insurgent
candidates for office. The
farmer is congratulated upon
his prosperity, but asked to
vote and work for the destruc-
ton of the system by which the
country has been built up, and
demand created for the farmer s
products. He is asked to lend
aid and comfort, in effect, to
the democratic party, and the
democratic party has never
been known as a friend of the
farming classes, judging from
its past performances.

GoldschmIdt for County Judge.

w. A. Goldschmidt, h e
Omemee lawyer, announces his
candidacy for the office of coun-
ty Judge, subject to the action
of the republican voters at the
primary election. Mr.. Cold
schmidt has been practicing
law in Bottineau county for
several years, first locating at
the old town of Richburg, later
going to Westhope and then
opening an office at Omemee.
He is a native of Davenport,
Iowa, and a graduate of the
college of law at Drake univer-
sity, Des Moines. Mr.. Gold
schmidt has the necessary
qualifications to properly dis
charge the duties of the office
of county judge and will make
a strong candidate. He has al
ways been republican and a
stauch supporter of the party
and his friends feel he is en-
titled to recognition.

tion and grading?
4 Congressman Hanna, speak
ing about the iniquities in the
present methods of dealings in
grain said: / am of the opinion
that system Of federal inspec-
ton is absolutely necessary to
protect the farmers of North
Dakota from t h e hold-up
methods now in vogue at the
terminals. The McCumber
bill now in the agricultural
committee of the senate, is in
my Judgment as nearly perfect
as can be, and if enacted into

now exist at terminal points.
