BURKE FOR PRESIDENT.

When The Forum, last spring
brought out Governor Burke Of North
Dakota for the vice presidency, it ap-
pears to have under estimated the
vaulting ambition of the state excu-
tive and that of his personal friends.
No mere vice presidency will satisfy
either Burke or his supporters. 1t is
the presidency-the first place for the
great North Dakota hero.
There are many governors who are
never even doomed for the second place
On the national ticket and The Forum
thought it was paying the Celtic execu-
tive quite a distinguished honor. It
now realizes 1t has failed to get a cor
rect focus on Governor Burke. He is
in more magnificent proportions than
ever before imagined. His stupenduosi-
ty is unrealized by the people of North
Dakota. His brilliancy OF intellect
his classic beauty and Adonis-like fig
ure make him an imposing national
character-compelling homage and ad-
ulation.
He is no waning comet-with it's tail
pulled out-too aged to create more
than a dim shadow across the skies.
Burke Is the real thing-the brilliant
luminary-the shining sun of the ma
tional democracy.
'Rah for Burke for president!

THE RURAL SCHOOLS.

Mrs. Jean McNaughton Stevens.
president OF the department of rural
schools in the state association, asks
that the next legislature treat the
rural schools fairly. She presents a
good argument in behalf OF her con-
tention. Mrs. Stevens takes the posi-
ton the boys and girls on the farm are
as, much entitled to good education
as the youth Of the towns and cities
and demands legislation, more favor
able to the rural, schools. She would
have them graded up and classified as

POSTAL SAVINGS BANK.

Commenting on some misunderstood
phases of the postal savings bank bill
The New York Journal of Commerce
elucidates the situation in the follow
ing:
There seems to be a good deal Of
confusion of mind regarding the new
postal savings law, and dispatches from
Washington speak about establishing
postal savings banks" and designating
Repositories" for the funds. The law
provides for no savings banks" but
authorizes a board of trustees consist
ing of the postmaster general, the sec
rotary of the treasury and the attorney
general, ito designate such postoffices
as 1t may select to be postal savings
depository offices" These will simply
be postoffices at which savings deposits
win be received to b. disposed of else
where, and will 20 more be savings
banks than money order offices are
banking houses.
No banks are to be designated" as
repositories of the funds taken in at
the postoffces which are "designated''
60 be postal depository Offices" Those
funds are required to be deposited in
solvent banks, whether organized under
national or state laws, being subject
to national or state supervision and ex-
animation" The funds received in any
particular city or town must be depos-
tied In banks located therein (sub-
stantially in proportion to the capital
and surplus of each such bank) willing
70 receive such deposits under the
terms of this act and the regulations
made by authority thereof" No bank
needs to be designated" as deposit
tory" of the savings funds and no bank
becomes such by operation of the law.
Wherever postoffice is designated
as postal savings depository office the
S=lsks OF that place, answering to the
description and willing to conform to
the terms and regulations of the law,
which win be the same for all, will be
entitled to their share of the deposits
from the postoffice, substantially in
proportion to the capital and surplus

Westhope Standard: The Bot
tineau News thinks that 30 per cent
provision in the primary election law
Is a shame and unconstitutional, as
owing to that the democrats cannot get
their men on the ticket. Now does
Falkey really believe that all the dem
ocrats stayed at home on election day,
or did they go to the polls and vote
the republican ticket? If any part of
the primary election law is good, the
80 per cent part is also. The primary
election Is in lieu of the old conven-
lions, where the democrats and re
publicans put up their tickets at sep
arate times and at different places.
The members of each party held their
caucuses and conventions and placed
ticket in the field. The primary cleo
ton should act the same. The reason
why it doesn't, is plain to anyone who
knows the voters in the different pre-
cincts.
