that Tommy Burns had put up bet
ter fight against Johnson and that the
black man was only playing with the
other men.
The end was swift and terrible. 1t
looked as though Johnson had been
holding himself under cover all the
rest of the time, mad now that he
had measured Jeffries in ali his weak
ness, he had determined to stop it
quickly. ...
In an instant, after the crowd real
lied the fight was over, the ring was
stampeded by a wild throng. The
short end betting men were hilarious,
but in the great mass of the specta-
tors there was a feeling of personal
jloss. Hope had lived in thousands OF
breasts until the last minute, and now
Their idol had crumbled and this
black man stood peerless. They could
not help but admire him, and there
was little animosity shown toward
him. For the most part the people
were silent, just readjusting things in
their minds. Hundreds swallowed
the bitter pill of heavy financial loss.

ADDRESS OF
HON. w. L. STOCkWELL
Delivered Before the
North Dakota Educational Association,
Wednesday, October 70, 1910

The past decade has been, without
doubt, the greatest in our history, so
far as the development and material
prosperity of our state is concerned.
While we have not, as yet, received the
returns from this years censuz it is
safe to presume that our population will
show an increase somewhere between Is
and 100 per cent over that of 1900. The
increase III wealth has been i'll much
greater ratio.
In 1900, the settlement Of the western
half of our state was not seriously con-
sidered; today ii is an accomplished
fact The growth. Improvement and
material prosperity of both rural and
urban communities is one of the most
striking illustrations of the spirit Of the
west. Your presence ,oda;, as an as
ISOLATION. is 4 tribute to this wonderful
growth of our commonwealth. In 1900
vast areas across the Missouri were I'M
organized and largely unoccupied 1t
is safe today to say that $1,000 people
are residing in this part Of our state
where in 1000 the census showed a little
less than 10000 people 1t is doubtful
whether this state will ever again see
such remarkable growth as has been

The educational development of this
state has, without question, kept pace
with all the other forward movements.

my life to have been permitted to have
part in this great work. \, the close

| and rural school buildings in this state
today have improved systems of heating
and ventilation; scarcely single build
ing was SO provided five years ago.
While there is much left to be desired,
it is our contention that the conditions
which obtain today are vastly improved
over those Of ten years ago.
The attendance i'll our rural schools
falls far shor, Of what it ought to be-,
yet the law has provided for longer
terms and strictrr compulsory attend
ancc than was found on the statute
books IN 1000 and there has been a slight
increase in the percentage of attend
ancc each biennial period. The attend
ancc in the rural school would be ma
trr:aN increased were the state and
county tuition fund apportioncd ON the
basis OF attendance rather than cnum
Grafton. he varu,i> attempts to bring
this about have been i'll vain owing to
what is clearly i constitutional prollib-
ton This association can do no great
cr service to education than to create
a sentiment sufficient to bring about the
amendment of our constitution which
y ii! allow the distribution OF tins ever
increasing fund upon the basis OF at
tendance. No one thing, i'll my judy
nrnl, will be a greater stimulus to at
tendance than this.
Are nur teachers better than they
were ten years ago. There can be no
serious doubt abou, this. State cxanl-
nation and tcr,itica,inn of teachers has
been in operation nearly ten years. the

see the wisdom of such step. RICH,
here let me say that it is doubtful
whether there is more sympathetic
and responsive people than that OF
North Dakota. The greatest satisfaction
in any individuals work is to see his
ideas become those of the people in gen
cral and finally find their way into the
laws of the state.
The best test Of progress III any edu-
cational system is found in the forwald
movement of the rural schools There
are educators who contend that no.real
progress has been made here; that the
rural schools are no better than they
were twenty or even forty years ago
if that be true. then indeed have we
labored in vain and what we think is
progress" is but a feeble imitation.
However, it is my contention that some
of the things which go to- make rp an
improved rural school are better plysi-
cal surroundings. better attendance. bet
ter teachers and better supervision. Let
us examine these conditions and see
whether by this test our rural schools
have advanced or refrigerated. Consd-
ering the physical surroundings, it is
safe to- say that few rural school build
lgs are erected now without consider
able care being taken with the heating.

districts appreciate now as they never
did before the value of a good teacher.
Our summer schools and normal schools
are ,lrnngcd with thousands of young
people who seem eager TO better pre-
pare themselves for teaching and the
great bulk Of these find their way into
the rural school. The most serious
drawback in the way OF rand progress,
sn far as teachers are concerned, is the
frequent change in teachers. This is a
condition which seems quite impossible
to remedy. The burden OF licking INTO

money in the hallway there he dropped
five dollar gold coin and it 70 led

He tried in vain to find the money

years ago he bought the property and
has recently been having some i'm.

While overseeing the work several day
ago he happened to remember tht the
place where the money dropped was
being remodeled He told one of the
men employed of his experience back
in the sos and asked him to be on the
lookout for the coin. Less than ten
minutes later. while be was still pres

Something OF a Warning.

The socialist victory in milwaukee,
is not exclusively local in Importance.
1t does not necessarily mean that the
socialist party or its doctrines have
made permanent progress in public es-
timation. Milwaukee tried both the
Republican and Democratic parties in
recent years and, evidently, both par
ties failed to make good. and the
people turned to the socialists In the
hope of relief.
That was very natural move
ment too. Democrats and Republicans
alike throughout this union of states
will do well to heed the warning.
Prosperous and contented, in their
individual affairs the people are often
all too patient with public evils. But
when individual burdens cause men
who have seemed Indifferent to give
some study to public questions. then
party leaders will do well ITO sit up
and take notice" The Republican
party, repeatedly trusted with power.
has proven faithless to the people.
The monopoists have that party in
their grasp. The Democratic PARTY
ought to render real service to the
people. It's leadership ought not to
try to make that party shape its
course in the hope of gaining the fav-
or of the monopolists who have wreck
ed the Republican party. The people
are getting ready for change. 1t
will do them no good, however. if
they Jump from the frying pan into
the fire. = The Democratic PARTY will
win and winning will continue TO live
to the glory of its founder if it shall
meet the issues fairly and with the
d stermlnaticn to render genuine SER
vice TO the people.

rons be induced to imprint their names
and box numbers on boxes in black
block letters about two inches high.
at is also desired that you endeav
or to induce road officials TO paint upon
the posts or boxes which are located

Government to Take a Hand.

Those interested in seeing the State
fish and game laws enforced will be
glad to learn that the United States
Government has decided to take hand
IN their enforcement. Employees of
the Government on the river are in re-
eelpt Of a circular letter from the
office of the United States Engineer at
Cincinnati, warning them not to en-
gage in or countenance any violations
or the state laws regarding the taking
of fish. While the Government has no
authority TO actually enforce the state
laws against setting nets in the river.
TINS action indicates a desire on the
part OF Uncle Sam to cooperate with
the county officers in the enforcement
or this law. and of other laws for the
protection OF fish. the destruction of
fsh has gone wantonly on until our
! streams. which were once full of
black bass and guoggle eyes, are al
most denuded. In addition to the
seine. the fish trap and the gun killing
them on. their nests, the deadly dyna-
mite has come into general use and is
more destructive than all the rest.
These sticks Of dynamite not only kill
the large fish but destroy in whole
sale way all the young. If the law
against its use is not enforced and the
! practice put stop to in a few years a
/ bass in any of our beautiful streams
will be rarity. They will become as
scarce as buffalo upon the plains. In
addition TO the Things mentioned,
which are destroying our fish. it is be-
lleved by many that the greatest mis-
fortune that ever happened to the peo-
pie who love the sport of fishing with
hook and line was the introduction of
German carp. This fish, which is alb j..
solutely the worst table food possible
and regarded as absolutely unfit to eat
by many, has multiplied and muItipli-
ed IN such great numbers until all our
streams are full of them and it is un-
doubredly after that they feed upon the
spawn OF bass. Between the dyna-
mite and the carp the fishermen CT
Kentucky are doomed to seek fishing
waters outside of the State in few
years.
