His retention in the senate will mean
his advancement ON his present COM
mittees and the possibility OF securing
other places. He has served the state
faithfully. He has reached the place
where he can be OF more benefit to
North Dakota than ever before. The
common sense OF the voters will show
them the wisdom of keeping McCum-
ber on the job. No business man
would think Of discharging an expert
enced. able and popular clerk to give
the place to an inexperienced, untried
man--at the same salary
What is said of Senator McCumber
is true, in "a degree, Of Congressman
Hanna. The latters service has been
much briefer. Of course, but he has
been fortunate in being placed on
some splendid committees and will be
advanced the longer he serves. His
first two years have been devoted
largely to becoming acquainted with
the duties OF his position and learning
how TO serve the people of North Da-
kota He should be reelected now
that he has reached the point where
he can begin to do things for his con-
stituents.

PAY OFF THE BONDS.

The morning organ-during the
campaign-dwelt at considerable length
on the amount of bonds paid off by
Mr.. Sweet when he was mayor. Now
that Mr.. Sweet has retired from his
wholesale business-the sunrise sheet
might make a hit by engaging him to
wipe out some of the bonds of The
News. OF course, when he paid the
city bonds--it was from a fund that
had been created before his induction
into the office. The failure of the
previous managers of the morning pa
per to provide sinking fund-while
it would be handicap-might not en-
tirely prevent man OF Mr.. Sweets
resources from pulling even the morn
ing organ out of the hole.

law offers him ample amends Ii he
is slandered. and the public is gem
erous enough to accord justice to
the candidate who has been unjust
ly traduced, and he should always
bear in mind that he invites inspec-
tion the moment his candidacy ia

one cries out that lie was convicted Of
horse stealing only a few months ago
and was now out on probation, provid-
ed the assertion is true
Yet this is what some people de-
precate as a personality and even use
as an additional argument why sup

sentence.
True. it is ungenerous to dig up
from the misty past so.le fall from

generous and can make allowances,
and an accusation of this nature
will act as a boomerage to the man or

New York, April 5.--UncIe Sam rais-
ed the red flag over the appraisers
warehouse today and hundreds of eag-
er bargain hunters of both sexes and
all ages and conditions responded to
the lure of the auctioneer's siren call.
The auction is the semi-annual one
of seized. unclaimed and abandoned
merchandise remaining in the custody
of the customs officials, and will con-
tinue until the 764 lots In the catalogue
have been disposed of.
AS usual, the offerings are diversi-
fed and include nearly every article
mentioned In the Payne tariff law.
Many of the articles to be sold were
sent to the persons whose addresses
they bear without the order or knowl-
edge OF the consignee. Such goods are
seldom accepted, and the government
rids itself OF these membranes by
semi annual public auctions.
Al painting addressed to aAlive q.
Vanderbilt, widow OF Cornelius Van

street, New York city" enclosed in a.
gilt frame, is done in oil and depicts
child reclining on a Sofa with cat
and dog crouched at the foot OF the
Q1Wan. Inc sofa Is. IElnB6d Win lace.
The lace is brought out well in the
picture and the coloring of the can
vas is good. with the exception Of
daub OF some kind on the child's
face.
The appraised foreign value of the
picture at the date of expectation is
stated to be $33 and it's domestic or,
American value when examined w1s
$50. 1t is understood that strug-
Cling American painter abroad ship

and request that she accept the work
and remit to him such sum as she
saw fit. Mrs. Vanderbilt declined to-
have anything to do with the impor-
tation. The catalogue cont-ins many
similar cases.

North Dakota Political Gossip

Hampden Guardian: A careful
study OF the record OF ou- two repre-.
sentatives will bring forth some inter,
esting facts. Facts that cannot be dis.
puted. Gronna has been In Office tht
past two years, and has done absolute.
ly nothing but make himself ridiculous
and a regular laughing stock to tht
eastern peopls OF his state. Besides
this he had had very bad habit oi
running away when he was really
needed Now he seeks promotion
Wants to go higher, wants to show the
people that he Ia Gronna and they are
his slaves. What a difference there Is
between this man and his team mate
During his term of ONCE Mr., Hanna
has been continually working for the
betterment Of things in his state, as
a whole, and what is more to the point
he has always been In evidence at the
time when he was needed. Mr.. Hanna
is not looking for promotion. He is
there to serve the people ana so far he
has made good and there is no doubt
but that he will do bett during his
next term. 1t is a ver. easy matter ,
choose between these two men.
Bismarck Palladium: Much is be-
ing said these Gays in the state press
about harmony and the avoidance of
personalities in political discussion
during the coming campaign.
1t might be we'll If some of those
who profess to be so anxious to con-
duct a clean and high minded debate
on men and policies would define ac-
curately just what they mean by per
sonalities"
The fable of the Office seeking the
man has long since been exposed in
North Dakota, and it would seem to be
more than ever the right of the public
to be well informed Of the past and
present of those candidates who de-
liberately offer mainly their own good
opinion of themselves as the inspiring
cause of their candidacy.
Would it be deemed a personality
TO call attention to an Lct of incompe-
tence or dishonesty in the past career
of such a one?
Surely the fact that a candidate had
been guilty of embezzlement of public
funds or had served time in the state
for some crime should be
known by those whose support he is

The instrument was procured in Eur

something like a small organ and has a

is different from anything else and
has a celestial beauty which has given

MAYOR LOWELL.

Werner .. Lowell is the next mayor
sof Fargo. He was elected yesterday
Sby a vote larger than the total receiv-
led by both his opponents. 1t was a
tnice tribute to the worth and ability of
the candidate and demonstrated the
hconfidence of the people in his fitness
for the city's chief executive.
Mr.. Sweet is a successful business
man, talented and able in many ways.
He had been mayor before and during
his administration had necessarily
created some opposition. This, nc
doubt, had something to do with his
defeat.
Another factor that initiated against
him was the attacks cf his newspaper
organ against his opponent
R Still another cause was the fact that
kthe insurRent state machine endeavor-
bed to butt into" the local fight. The
Esecretary of the insurgent headquart-
Bers sent out letters to prominent in
surgents over the state requesting
them to write Fargo friends to vote
for Mr.. Sweet. Local voters resented
the interference and rebulxed the at
etempted interference with home rule
The size Of the vote OF Mr.. Hodges
was a disappointment TO the man from
the sixth. He had generally been con-
ceded 15e, but received just half that
number.
In his address Saturday night, Mr..
Lowell stated he intended to give
severyone In Fargo square deal'-
THAT he had made no prediction
Spromises-and that he intended to be
mayor. himself.
That he spoke the truth is general
ay conceded. Fargoans have shown by
stheir votes they believe in Mr.. Lowell
band it is extremely unlikely that he
XVIII disappoint them.
Former Treasurer Mitchell was elect
led over City Treasurer Laizure. Judge
Ryan had no opposition and the
faldermanic contests were about an
even break. There will be eight new
faces in the council. These with the
Snew mayor makes the most radical
eehange in municipal affairs in Fargo
for many years.
Those who won are endeavoring not
to display too Essseh slation. rhcse
who were less fortunate are taking
their defeat goodnaturedly and are
determined TO assist in making the next
administration success. They are
displaying the proper spirit and earn.

FRIDAY and NUMBER IS
ori@'a rs Superstition Regarding
Them-Friday Has Been Lucky"
Day For the U. 8.

Friday and the number "13r have
long been held to be especially UNI
lucky says The New York Sun. This
evil reputation came evidently from the
last supper ana crucrlxion of the Say
ior.
At that memorial meal there were
thirteen at the table, one OF whom
betrayed his Lord to cruel death,
while the Crucifixion occurred on FRI
day. These events were doubtless in
due course ordained for the salvation
of mankind, and they were the fore
runners Of beneficent results to the en-
| tire world. but 1t is no surprising fact
that the atrocious acts by which they
were brought to pass should have re-
suited in UNIVERSAL human reproba-
tion.
Nevertheless, Friday has been a most
fortunate and fateful day in the his
tory OF the New World, while thirteen
| has been always the lucky number of
the United States. so that while they
may have been counted accursed in
the Old World, they are identified with
the most important and famous events
in the new.
Let us give a little attention to the
part that Friday mas played in the his
tory of our country.
1T was on Friday Aug 3. 1892, that
Columbus sailed from Palos, Spain,
on his voyage of discovery that gave
a new hemisphere and the worlds
greatest free nation to mankind, and
it was on Friday, Oct. IL. of the same
year that he made land in the New
World. The voyage, with three small
vessels that were scarcely more than
yawl boats. was made at a time when
the West Indian cyclones were most
to be feared, but they sailed the un-
known seas without storm.
1t was on Friday that Henry III of
England gave a commission to John
Chabot, which led to the discovery of
North America.
1t was on Friday that st. Augustine,
the oldest town in the United States,
was founded.
1t was on Friday that the ship May
flower, with the Pilgrims, landed at
Plymouth. Mass
1t was on Friday that George Wash
ington was born.
1t vas on Friday that the Declare
tion of American independence was
adopted.
1t was on Friday that the British
General Burgoyne and his army sur
rendered at Saratoga
1t was on Friday that the surrender
OF CORVALLIS at Yorktown ended the
war.
1t is evident from this that Friday,
so far from being an unluclxy day in
America, should be deemed most for
tunate.
AS to the number thirteen, 1t is
closely identified with the very foun-
dations of our great republic.
On the national flag were represent
ed thirteen stripes and thirteen stars
to stand for the thirteen colonies that
formed the infant nation. On the OBJ
verse of the national great seal is
spread eagle with thirteen stars
around his head and thirteen arrows
in one claw, while in the other he holds
an olive branch with thirteen leaves.
On the reverse is an unfinished pyra-
mid, of which thirteen courses OF mas
onry are laid. the balance to be added,
while the national motto-E Pluribus
Unum--meaning "one composed of
many contains thirteen letters.
1t is plain, therefore, that If Friday
and the number thirteen be symbols
of misfortune and evil in the Old
World, they signify just the opposite
in the new.
