THE BOND ELECTION.

Next Friday the people of Fargo will
vote ON bonds for the waterworks plant
and also for an issue for an electri
light plant.
There has been considerable confus-
ion over the bond issues. When the
first special election was held the bonds
for both water and light were placed
under one resolution. The issue carried
overwhelmingly, but was declared n. &.
because the two propositions were
coupled together.
Another special election was held.
but this time only the water bond issue
was submitted. The advocates of a,
new filtration plant slept at the switch
and the bonds failed to carry. Few
people thought there would be any op-
position as the earlier vote had been
so strongly in favor of the issue. It
was not thought possible that any one
would be so blind to his own interests
as to vote against an improved water
supply. The total vote was very light.
At the special election ordered for
Friday both water and light bonds will
DE voted on. Voters can endorse or
reject both-or endorse one and reject
the other as fancy and interest die
tates.
1t Is difficult to conceive any actual
resident of Fargo voting against a
proposition to improve the water sup
ply. The city owns the present water
works system. II is merely question
OF improving it--not of going further
into the municipal ownership problem
as far as water is concerned.
There are many advocates of
municipal lighting system. 1t is con-
tended that the plant can be operated
In connection with waterworks very
cheaply. There are also many oppon-
ents to the plan. Some are opposed to
the city going into new municipal own
ership propositions. Others believe
Fargo has an equitable light rate and
y good service and it would be foolish
for the city to establish plant in com
petition. They contend that a nunic;-
pal light plant might be excused in a
town where there was no enterprise Of
that kind and the city could get all the
business-but that it is poor business

HARRISON ON PRICES.

1t was President Benjamin Harrison
who said that a cheap coat made a
cheap man. His political enemies in
terpreted this falsely. They declared
that the president meant that a man
who could not afford an expensive coat
was man cheap in attachments and
in ability. The president really meant
that in a country where things were
screwed down in price wages were
screwed down as well. Where things
were cheap, labor was cheap, and that
the toiler could buy no more at low
prices-as his wages were correspond
ingly low. On the other hand he believ-
ed that in that country where prices
were high wages were correspondence
high. Perhaps this will be a sort of
balm to spread over the injured feel
ings Of the people Of this country as
they contemplate higher prices in the
cost Of living. Perhaps it is but the
reaction brought about by the pressure
upwards for shorter hours and more
pay by the labor unions throughout
the nation. After all the former presi-
dent saw mayhap with the eye Of the
seer and spoke with the voice of a
prophet.

MUCH INTEREST
IN MISSION
WORK
tBy Associated Press. ]

Edinburgh, Scotland, June IL
seldom has the Christian church
been called to meet so great an op-
portunity or to respond to such i'm
mense and varied needs. says the
commission on education in relation
to Christianization of national life
in its report. presented today to the
international missionary conference
in session here. The commission re-
commends a wide development of ed
ucational work in connection with
missionary endeavors and warns the
churches against the danger of losing
sight of the primary object-to seek
the complete conversion to Christian
ity OF those who come within the in
fiuence of the work. instead of rest
ing content with lower and subordi-
nate ends of education.
In describing the influence of mis-
sionary work upon the national life
of the peoples to which 1t has been
carried. the commission reports that
a large proportion of the best moral
and spiritual influences of the mis-
sons have emanated from the
schools.
1T is probable" says the report.
that the most striking public wit
ness for Christianity hitherto borne,
specially in India. the witness which
has most impressed even hostile ma
tive observers, has been the power
which the Christian missionaries have
exhibited by means of education to
raise the lowest classes pariahs,
or outcasts-of the community. It
is not too much to say that the mis-
sionaries have proved more than any

tives. Whatever has been accom-
plished in the direction of realizing
the fellowship of humanity-and
that is one of the greatest of all
human enterprises been accom-
plished by no class of men so much
as by the missionaries.
I'VE desire to put on record our
firm conviction that Christianity. by
reason of its unique message to the
world, has a unique part to play in
the work of education. One of the
striking phenomena Of the present
hour is the worldwide recognition of
the necessity of the moral, If not also
of the religious. element in educa-
tion. With due recognition of the
many elements of truth and value in
the non-Christian systems of religion
and ethics. we should nevertheless
be faithful-not alone to our relig-
ion, but to the facts of experience
II we did not at this time reaflirm
our conviction that the education of
the world demands for its highest
and best development those elements
Of truth which are the peculiar CON
