STALWART VICTORY.

The reports from yesterdays battle
OF the ballots indicate the vote was
even lighter than had been anticipated
The apathy so apparent during the
campaign continued up to the last
minute.
The vote was probably less than
half that which it was possible to cast.
Lack OF local contests in many coun-
ties and the further fact that It was an
"off-year" in politics are held re-
spcnsible~for the lack of interest. Pos
sibly the waning cause Of the insur-
gency was responsible.
The returns indicate a stalwart vic
tory all over the state with the posi-
Ole exception OF the short term SEN
Etorshtp, which seems very close, and
probably one or two state Offices.
But whatever the results, however
rufxed.Stt may become by the time the
final returns, even II the first reports
are entirely reversed-it's up to the
republicans of North Dakota to get
togstheri and support the ticket.

Der yards and frame buildings will be

The fire department will be at high

sufficient cause for issuing proclana-
ton against firing firecrackers within
the city limits unless they are exploded

the defiation takes place. 1t would be
a dangerous proposition If the balloon
would fall into a pile OF rubbish while
the light was burning.
Fargo had one experience with a
great fire seventeen years ago. The
people are not anxious to repeat. Why
take chances?

LEIGH WON OUT.

There was only one contest on the
republican ticket in Cass county II
was between Ad Leech and George
Guthrie for county auditor. The
kfornner has won.
The opponents Of Mr.. Leech circu-
lated a great many libelous stories
and they handicapped Mr.. Leech con-
stderably in sections where he was not
so well known. But the fiat man. GER
tainly has every reason to fell proud OF
the endorsement given him in Fargo
Despite the light vote he carried the
city by almost 400 majority. Even had
no lost out in the county he would
have every reason to feel proud of his
home endorsement. The fact that Mr..
Leech stood so we'll and secured such
a large vote in the city Of Fargo where
he is best known and where every eff
fort was put forth to defeat him-Is
the best possible refutation of the
SANDERS circulated about him.

POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS.

The enactment Of a postal savings
bank law at the recent session Of con-
gress is causing a great deal of spec
ulation. 1t is expected to bring a lot
Of money out of hiding-and all those
who are afraid OF the banks can now
get a sensesof relief by letting the gov
eminent run the risk
One of the favorable features Of the
plan is that the depositor no matter
where he goes. will have a letter of
credit and can cash in his certificate
at any postofice in the United States.
Just what effect the law will have on
established banks is something Of a
question.
AS individual deposits are limited to
$500, the measure Is designed wholly for
the accommodation OF persons of small
means. Then the rate of interest il
only per cent-so the postal bank
will not prove attractive to persons
who are looking for a real investment.
Consequently, savings banks-offering
and per cent ON deposits-should
not;be appreciably affected by the new
law.
National banks within the districts
IN which the postal savings banks are
located are to be designated as the de-
positories for SIS per cent of the postal
saving deposits. This is designed to
prevent money from leaving the dis
trtct in which it is deposited-and is
regarded as provision which will tend
to decentralize financial operations.
AT all times the national treasury will
retain per cent Of postal savings de-
posits to meet the demands of denosi-
tors-and 30 per cent of the deposits
will be invested in government bonds.
Depositors are also to be given the
privilege Of investing their savings in
special issue of government bonds in
denominations ranging from $40 to 800
This feature of the measure is doubt
less suggested by the French plan of
permitting small investors to obtain
securities in small amounts. At the
time Of the Spanish war a similar at
tempt was made in this country-but
the public was so unfamiliar with such
, plan that banks and brokers manag-
ID to get most of the securities.
Under the new measure the presi-
dent is authorized in time of war or
special emergency to withdraw all de-
posits and invest them in government
bonds-a plan which automatically
puts government securities into the
hands Of the public without the inter
vention of middlemen.
Investigators for the government
have found there Is a great demand in
some parts Of the United States for the
postal savings banks. Foreigners who
are not familiar with banking meth
DDS have made free use Of postal money
orders drawn to themselves as a means
Of entrusting their funds to the gov
srnment in preference to banking
houses. Such persons win be doubly

glad OF the opportunity to, entrust their
money to the government at per cent
interest.
= The most earnest advocates of the
postal savings bank say 1t will put into
circulation much Of the boarded money
which lies useless in the homes OF
persons who do not care to risk in
vestments-and win have a tendency to
steady financial conditions. 1t is also
maintained by the advocates of the law
that 1t will educate new customers for
banks Of all kinds. Bankers have gen.
orally opposed the measure, but Mr..
Taft was strong enough to overcome
the opposition.

Travellers Tales

A bug put big Jack Nicholson t.
flight and caused him to have row
with his best girl. .-
This was the statement that was
made by travelling man who was in
the city last night and who registers
John Walsh, Minneapolis" Accord
ing to Mr.. Walsh, whose reputation
for truth and veracity is Of best, Mr.
Nicholson was out calling on his best
girl, and he was having just as lovely
time scrapping and then making up
as you ever beard of. Suddenly the
young lady gave a scream, and then
exclaimed: Heavens, there's a bed
bug" and she keeled over in a dead
faint.
Now Mr.. Nicholson never was
known to have bed bugs or any kind
OF bugs and he was sorely afraid that
the warm, yes, red hot weather had
AFFECTED the girls brain and he busted
himself with cold water and other re-
storatives and at last had the satisfac-
ton of seeing her open her eyes, and
the minute she did she ordered him
out of the house and told him never
to come back again. He asked for an
explanation and was told that no mat
ter how much he might deny 1t, she
had seen a bedbug on his coat and
that the critter was rapidly disappear
Ing under the lapel Of the garment. He
protested, but it did not do a bit of
good, and when she handed him his
hat he left the house and sadly and
slowly, like funeral procession OF
one, wended his way to his own room.
Here he took off the coat and secreted
under the lapel was the bug. 1t was
a good bit larger than any bedbug he
had ever seen, and 1t had a red black
and dark stripes down the same. Then
he remembered that he had been out
in the country that afternoon assisting
a friend in picking potato bugs and
that doubtless one of them had sought
refuge in his pocket from the hand of
an assassin.
This will explain why yesterday aft
ernoon he was going out to the A. G.
and other places in the city where
there are scientific men with a small
wooden box in his hand which con-
tained potato bug.
He was endeavoring to secure the
necessary affidavits to the effect that
the bug belonged to the potato bug
type, but he Is at loss to find any
one who will swear that this was the
same bug the girl had seen. Thus
are two happy hearts disconnected.

HURRY, WORRY AND HEAT,

The news columns are recording in
stances Of death from heat. Fargo is
not exceptional in this particular-the
entire country is hot.
Needless to say, the people who lose
their lives when the weather is ex-
cessively oppressive-ar those who
have never given heed to the very few
good rules which have been offered
from one century to another
There are always so many people
who do not learn the simplest rules in
time that it is always proper to repeat
them, in the hope that an individual
here and there will listen.
The most important of them is-do
not worry. This is not nonsensical
advice. Worry is largely a voluntary
action, and by little determination II
can be put aside, to very large ex-
tent, at least. AS long as you live, one
day is going to be a good deal like
another--and no day you have vet
known has been half bad. Be sure the
worst will not happen. Just at pres
ent, If there are debts to pay. extra
work to be done--let others do the
worrying. .-, ~. .sas t..
The other most important rule is,
don't worry. There is always another
car coming, and another day, and an
other opportunity. If you do not ar
rive just on the minute, or if you work
is not completed in the nick of time
what harm is done?
Hurry and worry are the twin sis
ters of evil when the days are hot.
You can shut your door on both of
them, and actually save money by it
and nervous energy-and other things
you ought to prize.
The people whose nuts lie athwart
the equator never die from the heat.
though it is with them twelve months
in the year-just as it is in Fargo now.
And nobody ever caught them hurrying
or worrying.
