Flowing Water.

'The sun glows in the Lion" says
Seneca, meaning that when the sun
enters the sign Of Leo at the summer
solstice the highest temperature Of
the year Is experienced. We may say
on the other hand that the Babylonian
astrologers thousands of years ago
placed the king Of beasts. the fiery
and ferocious lion. In that part Of the
zodiac which the sun enters at the
summer solstice.
The constellation which Is called
Leo bears very little resemblance to
the outline Of a lion. Probably the
rame was originally applied only TO
its principal star, Regulus 1t is to
this constellation in the zodiac that
we owe the countless water spewing
lions' heads which are found in an
cient and modern fountains, because
in the latter part Of July. while the
sun is still in the sign Leo. the Nile
IS at its highest level E
Furthermore. the lions head with
widely open jaws is IN itself very suit
able for the mouth of a fountain or
waterspout This decorative motif
was employed universally throughout
the Greco-Roman world. Lions heads
are found used in this way at Athens.
Ephesus, Olympia. Agrigentuin and
countless other places. 1t is not quite
certain that this employment Of the
lions head originated In Egypt Cur
thus describes an Assyrian bas-relief
from Bairan showing water streaming
from ring shaped vessel. A lion
stands as If on guard on either side
OF the fountain.
The water clock. which was used in
judicial proceedings. had the form Of
lion and a name which means the
guardian Of the stream. Hence the
idea of protection may have been the
origin of the association Of lions With
fountains. and this custom may have
originated in Asia.-Scientifc Ameri-

Cotton is Great
National Asset

Washington p 81 July Az. From
official sources ringing back % 1920
the Southern Commercial Congress
has correlated statistics that show the
dependence Of the nation upon cotton
in maintaining the credit OF the United
States in world commerce.
The total value OF all exports from
1890 to June so, 1908. has been S47..
99i.224.4e5. The total balance in favor
Of the United States during this period
has been se.4as.li4.5se. The total
valae Of raw cotton exported during
the same time has becn sis.5sS.s53,.
oS6 These hgufes are for raw cotton
alone and al low valuation. They leave
out 81 consideration manufactured cot-
ton and cotton seed products.
Tho purpose Of the compilation IS
to lift cotton subjects, enemies ana
cultural methods out OF consideration
as solely southern interests and give
them their rightful place as national;
for without cotton the nation would be
a debtor instead Of creditor, on the
worlds balance sheets to the extent OF

WHAT LIES BEHIND.

Once more reports come from the
orient that China is on the verge of
another 'boxer" uprising. This cry
of wolf has been heard so often that
the western world has about made up
it's mind to remain calm until the oft
predicted happens. Yet it will be
wrong to assume there is no substan-
tial basis for the uneasiness with
which the situation is viewed by the
diplomatic world.
There can be little doubt that a
large part of the country is seething
in agitation. particularly the province
of Human and adjacent territory
where the strain of pure-blooded Chi
nese is strongest, and from where the
most alarming reports have come.
These people have never forgotten
that the alien Manchus occupy the
throne and that the Chinese are in eff
feet in state Of vassalage in their
own country. spperstitious in the ex-
IRENE. the natives attribute floods,
crop failures and all sorts of disast-
ers to the anger of the gods at the
failure Of the people to rid them
selves of their Manchu rulers. Even
in the stagnation Of China's denses,
population the leaven of education
and western thought is working, in.
troduced by those who have been to
Japan or to other countries. The null.
tiplicity Of newspapers that have ap.
peared within the last few years,
papers that have actually dared to
criticise the officials, must also have
had an effect. while those most ia.
miliar with the empire admit that
there is strong and increasing sent.

Democratic tariff which forced farm
ers to sell wheat for fifty cents a
bushel. That is Governor Burke's
party. Is he honest enough to stand
by 1t in this campaign and own its
incompetency? Not by any means.
Does he own his allegiance to that
doctrine that brought about that re-
suit? But he talked and voted for it,
and declared 1t was the only political
salvation Of the people just as he de-
clares his own election is now. But
instead Of taking a manly stand on
his party's record and failures, he
seeks election by formenting strife
and dissention in the Republican par
ty. 1t reads like the story Of the two
farmers who became involved in q
lawsuit over a COW and while one was
holding onto the animals horns and
the other to her tail. the lawyer
MIXED the animal dry. That may be
practical politics but 1t savors much
of something else. Is there anything
to commend the election policies of
Governor Burke to any man who be-
lieves in standing on the record of
the party with which he is identified
and who likes to see a candidate as
honest and fair in his campaign as
the average man is in his business?

MAY BUILD AN EXTENT|OM
Street Car Company Trying to Deter.
mine Method Of Crossing DeMers
Avenue Bridge

Avenue BflQG0
The manner in which the Grand
Forks Street Railway company will
cross the DeMers avenue bridge in
installing the new system in East
Grand Forks is a matter that has been
seriously considered by local engf-
neers Of late. The solution of the
problem which seems most practical
and the one which will probably be
carried out, is to build a five foot ex-
tension to the sidewalk on the north
side of the present structure, which
will allow ten feet on the north side
Of the bridge, on from the roadway,
way company.
There are many reasons why the
tracks cannot be laid in the roadway
across the bridge To begin with
there is not enough room to provide
for the car passing a team, and again
the top Of the bridge is so law that
the trolley wire would be brought
down too low for the safety of drivers
on the bridge. Then it Is necessary
to keep the roadway covered with
snow during the winter to provide for
,sleighing and this would interfere
with the car service, ncessitating the
employment of someone to continual
ly keep the tracks clear of snow and
ice.
So far as pedestrians are concern
ed traffic is not so heavy on the bridge
but what one sidewalk would be suf-
ficient at time when a car was ap-
preaching, and running at rate Of
but four miles an hour everyone
would have an opportunity to get out
Of the way of the car If they hap
pened to be on the side Of the bridge
used by the company About the only
other solution Of the problem is to
build new bridge and the expense
of such an. undertaking makes 1t pro-
hibitive at this time.

nor. In fact, many of its candidates
did not receive enough votes in the
primary to secure place on the tick
et While Republicans should by no
means overlook the importance Of
working for the whole ticket, especial
efforts should be made in the case Of
governor. The Democratic party Is
not SO pure that it does not have
party desires. Neither is Governor
Burke. What it and he wants is such
a Democratic machine in the state
that they can. in time, control its pol
icies. The appointing power Of the
governor is the means by which they
intend to build up this machine. 1t
has been so used in the past, but with
just enough Republicans who were
Burke supporters thrown in to lull
the people to sleep and give the ap-
pearance of lack of political intrigue.
But when an opportunity to appoint
United States senator arose Cover
nor Burke did not maintain his non
partisan policy. He did right in ap-
pointing a Democrat, but it shows
that when it counts for the Democrat
ic party, the appointing power is so
used. 1t is this power that the Demo-
cratic party leaders want and is the
reason why they are so earnestly
!! working for third term for the pres
ent incumbent.
What do the Democrats offer as an
inducement TO aid them and upon
what means are they relying to ac-
complish their aims? They are Of
fering candidate for third term
a violation of an unwritten law as
sacred as that laid down by WASH
ington in his farewell address. and
violated only once in the history of
the state, and then to do honor to a
man who had won distinction in
fighting for his country. Governor
Burke has been only an ordinary gov
ernor. He has done nothing that he
was not required to do by law. He
has initiated no great reform nor
been sponsor for no great movement.
He has been a plain, common COVER
nor He is said to be honest but he
certainly deserves no especial honor,
no chiseled monument, because he
possesses one of the cardinal virtues.
Is it such a peculiar altitude that he
or any other man should be worship
ed because they are honest? Such an
argument is a reflection upon honesty
itself. 1t indicates that among North
Dakota people it is such a rare thing
that its possession entities it's pos

BY what means is the Democratic
party seeking to win the election of
its candidate for governor? Upon the
platforms and history of his political
party in the past or its condition at
present? Not by any means. Cover

the presidential candidate and the
party platform at that time, will not
tell the farmers of this state that he is
asking his election because of the
