An Unnatural Conclusion.

sweetest and most cherished girl

maiden condolences, candor compels
me to admit listened.
The bride in prospect cooed her bliss
soulfully into her neighbours ear, but
through an opening in the leaves l
could observe that the latter bit her
lip now and then and did not appear
enthusiastically joyous or congratula-
tory, as warranted by the occasion.
But the innocent cooling and amorous
gurgling did not cease.
"And to think, to think" quoth she,
that such heavenly bliss as fell to my
lot might have escaped me forever!
Dear Bob! Did ever tell you he had
proposed to me twice."
Then the unsympathetic auditor as
sumed an air Of innocence.

she inquired with raised eyebrows.
She is not going to be the maid Of
honor.-Exchange.

Silly Billy From Bolton.

In a certain town in the north of
England there is man known by
the name Of Silly Billy. Not feeling
we'll one day, he sent for the doctor.
After examination the doctor asked
him If he would take note to the
Model lodging house and he would
give him sixpence. So Billy, not lik-
ing to refuse. said he would. But on
the way there he came across street
sweeper that he knew. He told the
sweeper where he was going, but he
said II he would take the note he
would give him threepence. So of
he went and gave the landlord the
note, and he found the following writ
ten:
"Give this man bath and keep him
in till tomorrow morning, and will
call and see him."
So the following morning the doctor
came and was shown into his room.
Looking at the man. he exclaimed:
This is not the man I sent!
mo, it's not, and I'll pound Silly
Billy's head OF when see him" the
sweeper replied.-London Telegraph.

According to a Washington dis
patch that appears elsewhere in this
issue, Senator McCumber has taken
up with the interior department the
matter of patents delayed in this
state because of the existence of coal
on lands that have been homestead
ed, and Secretary Ballinger has stat
ed that the department is Investigate
ing and where coal is not found in
paying quantities fun patents and
title will be issued to the homestead
er. OF course, there is a great deal
OF Ignite in the western part of the
state and traces and thin veins of it
run under much of the agricultural
land. But the coal is not of a suff1-
cient amount or value to make the
land valuable for other than agricul-
tural purposes, and the homestead
ers, who have lived on and improved
their land ought to have title with
out any reservation. 1t ought not to
be difficult for the department to
learn what land is especially valuable
for coal, or land that may have been
taken with a view of getting a coal
vein. But the fact is that this land
in the western part of the state in
| the vast majority of cases has been
homesteaded as agricultural land and
and to estop the homesteader from
!, getting complete title retards the
, development of the state and works
hardship on the settler whose title
; is left incomplete.

All Named Alike.

A certain Lord Westmoreland fell in
love with the daughter Of Child. the
rich banker, who. however. would not
hear of the match. The lovers in spite
Of this met secretly and kept their love
alive, while Child complacently con-
graduated himself that his daughter
had forgotten her whilom lover. One
day, meeting Child In club. Lord
Westmoreland said, "What would you
do II, like my friend, you were in love
with q Lady and her father refused his
consent to allow them to marry"
"Why. run away with her, of
course" replied the unsuspecting Child.
Lord Westmereland promptly follow
ed the advice Of the banker, who be-
came so irate that he refused to for
give the young couple and, dying, be-
Queathed all Of his vast wealth to their
child, Sarah. In order to secure the
wealth Lord aud Lady Westmoreland
named all Of their six children Sarah,
boys included.-Cincinna Commercial

A SINGULAR Marriage Custom.

~
The Kurds have very curious and
somewhat dangerous marriage custom,
which one would think would be more
honored in the breach than in the OBJ
servance. The husband, surrounded
by a bodyguard Of twenty or thirty
young men. carries his wife home on
his back in q scarlet cloth and is des-
perately assaulted the whole way by
q number Of girls. Sticks and stones
are hurled at the bridegroom, who in
the coming home with his bride can
hardly be considered a very happy
man, for the irate amazons often in
fiict on him marks which he carries
to the grave. 1t may be that among
the lady pursuers are some of the
bridegroom's former "dames." who
turn the mock attack into downright
earnest to avenge sighted love.

THE HERALD AND THE, TARIFF

The Grand Forks Herald insists
that the tariff is not the cause of
prosperity in the case Of the farmer.
The Herald also insists that it is
a robber tariff and destroying the
prosperity Of the country.
The Herald also admits that the
farmer is prosperous and getting
high prices for his products.
The Herald also argues that while
the farmer is getting a high price
for his products, it is only surface
prosperity-there isn't any real foun-
dation for it, because he is paying so
much more than ever he did for
what he buys.
A visitor to a rural community in
the state the other day noted the
great number of automobiles owned
by farmers.
All over the state come reports of
building, progress, investments in
lands and properties, and continual
demand for more land on the part
of the buying public. If the tariff,
the policies of the republican admin
istration, the economic policy of the
government for the past decade is all
wrong, as the Herald insists, why
this growth and prosperity?
And If the tariff hasn't raised the
price of farm products and things to
eat-why this outcry on the part of
the Herald and its following against
the tariff?
First, the Herald says the tariff
doesn't raise prices. And then the
Herald says the tariff is impoverish-
ing the country by raising prices.
The Herald ought to get together
with itself.
The Herald says the suit of clothes
that the farmer could buy a few
years ago for SIS vii: now cost him
$50.
Without desiring to disagree with
the Herald, We may say frankly that
We don't believe it.
We don't believe the Herald can
advance any proof Of this statement
from the advertisements of it's local
clothiers.
The Herald says that labor is high
or. Well, is the Herald in favor of
low wages for labor?
The trouble with the Herald's at
titude is that it is seeking to mislead
the voters as to the actual nature
and effect of the Few tariff act, for
the purpose of gaining an advantage
for factional candidates, who must
have something to kick about in their
campaign.
In the condition of the farmers of
North Dakota today, there is very
little to kick about. And the Herald
knows it. The tactional shouters
know it. And the people pretty gen.
orally know it.
North Dakota was never so pros
porous as it is today. The calamity
that the Herald sees is purely the
creation of lively political imagin-
alton, exerted in the interest of some
candidates for Office.

FROM THE TRAINING
CAMPS
{By Associated Press.)

Ben Lomond, CAL, May 17.-Jef-

complaint from the negro that his
muscles were stiff.
IF andything," he said when ques-
