The Coming Grain Belt.
New Orleans Times-Dispatch.

New Orleans Times-Dispatch.
From Cincinnati comes news that
one of the features Of the Ohio valley
exposition, being held in that city,
will be a series OF lectures upon South
ern resources, wherein the lecturer
will undertake to show that the "na-
tional granary" will sometime be re-
moved to the South. Fanciful as
this NAV seem to those OF our North
ern neighbers who are unacquainted
with present-day conditions in this
section, the lecturer will be able to
bolster history by plausible and
rather convincing facts and figures.
The boil Weevil will figure in his
argument, we are told, as one OF the
principal agencies in the prophesied
evolution. Certainly that trouble
some immigrant has powerfully help
ed the crop diversification campaign
ers bringing many converts into the
diversifcation camp. Moreover, ex-
perimentation with the standard
grain has been surprisingly successful,
by most accounts. Improved farm
ing methods have helped corn cui-
ture throughout the Southern States,
so that both the yield and the acre
age are increasing rapidly. 1t is said
that Southern farmers are also get
ting satisfactory fields Of oats. As
for wheat, the Mississippi farmers
who made trial of that crop last fall
are reported well satisfied with re-
suits and within the last few days
the organization of what might be
termed "wheat-growing clubs" has
been reported from two Mississippi
counties.

Study the Tariff Question
every way

Those candidates who are advo-
eating a low tariff lis an advantage
to the North Dakota farmer and
who are incidentally criticizing the
position Of members of the con-
gressional delegation who voted
for the passage of the present tariff
law overlook some facts with which
the farmers themselves are fam
liar. If a low tariff is good in prin-
ciple on one item, it is good on all.
There is duty of twenty-five cents
a bushel on wheat. Those who adj
vocate the old-time Wilson low tar
if assert that this is no advantage
to the North Dakota wheat grower.
A little study will prove the re-
verse.
Last Saturdays quotation of cash
wheat No. l northern at Duluth
was 81 0S3. The same quoted grade
at Winnipeg on the same day was
944 cents. The Winnipeg quota
tions, as every farmer and we'll in
formed person knows, are the quo
tations at Port Arthur, or lake port
quotations, and from the face of
the Winnipeg board of trade quo
tations, which are quoted above,
must be deducted the cost of trans
portation between Winnipeg and
Port Arthur, about the same as
that between Grand Forks and
Duluth. So that the Duluth quo
tation and the Winnipeg quota
tions are on the same conditions,
making a difference in last Satur-
days quotation of l422 cents

The Ryder News has the follow
ing to say about the progressives:
1t is too bad when a man running
for an Office on the Republican
ticket has to use some name such
as progressive" republican, in Or
der to win the votes of the grand
old party. A man that is not sat
isfied with the name republican
and has to tack on something ex-
ira, is not entitled to very much
consideration from a republican
standpoint. What the people want
is plain republicans. unvarnished

A Splendid Official

Hon. John Flittie of Williams
county is a candidate for the re-
publican nomination for state au-
ditor. Old timers in the state re-
call John Flittie as the first secre-
tary Of state North Dakota ever
had. His friends are legion
through the state and he deserves
them all. No man ever had to get
a search light and GO
out and look for John Flittie.
His official career was an open
book and his friends always knew
that they would find him straight
republican, a loyal friend and a
splendid official. There is no man
in the state who would better fill
the Office of state auditor than
John Flittie. That office needs a
man Of his ability and breadth.
1t is an important Office, and the
state auditor is a member OF many
important boards and commissions.
Something more is needed than a
mere accountant. 1t needs a man
who is big and broad like the
state and John Flittie is that.
Mclean county ought to give him
a splendid Endorsement at the pri-
maries. He is worthy Of it in
every way.

Be a Republican

Let us advise the republican
voters to vote for straight republi-
canism, for straight republican
candidates, for the endorsement of
the policies of President Taft, as
carried out by Senator McCumber,
Judge Engerud and the straight
republicans Of this state, and for a
continuance Of prosperity and good
times,
Straight repubIicanism should
be the watchword. We want good
and square men in the Offices there
are to be filed. We do not want
trimmers or knifers. We want re-
publicans who will stand squarely
to the mark and support the poll
cies that have made this country
the most prosperous in the world,
and the American people the rich
est on the earth. We want a con-
tinuance of the policy that is CIV
ing the American farmer his due
that is making him wealthy and
independent. That is why we want
straight republicanism.
The voters of this state are tired
of the efforts Of factionalists to
split the party so they may get in
to Office. They are tired Of the
men who go about the state abus-
ing the president and the republi-
can party. They are tired of the
men who want to get into office,
and do not care whether the re-
publican party is wrecked or not,
SO long as they get what they are
after.
Let the motto of the republicans
this year be straight republican
ism" Let them vote for and sup
port square-toed republicans who
have the honor of the old party at
heart. This is a republican state
and this onght to be a republican
year, when the old bruises are heal
ed and republicanism comes to the
front victorious.

Chosen by the People

It has been a pleasure to the In
dependent to see the generous sup.
port throughout the state accorded
Hon. G. A. johnson, our local can
didate for governor. Many of the
best papers in the state have al
ready come out for Mr.. johnson
without any solicitations.
The Independent supported Mi.
johnson loyalty two years ago and
we have no reason to regret it; nei-
Their is there any reason why we
should not choose him as our pref
erence this year. We have no an
mostly toward any Of the other
candidates, but We believe that Mr..
johnson is the strongest man rum
ming and besides he is a home man.
We believe that Minot is with
MI. johnson and.that Ward county
fHr "
will give him a much larger vote
this year than last. Mr.. johnson
took his defeat manfully last year
and held no bitterness toward those
who thought it wise to vote against
him. He remained loyal to his
town and party and has been a
consistent booster for both ever
since. His attitude has made him
the logical candidate this year and
we believe that every citizen Of
Minot and Ward county will feel
like turning IN and electing him
to the high Office to which he as
pires.-Minot Independent.

All Regret His Sickness

The National Tribune, the off,
cial publication of the national Or
ganization Of the Grand Army of
the Republic, is issued in Wash
ington city. Its editors are fami-
liar with the magnificent work done
by Senator McCumber in congress
and especially as chairman of
the senate committee on pensions.
In a recent issue the National Tri-
bune had the following editorial:
The veterans all over the coun-
try have followed with deep inter
est the news from the bedside of
Senator McC umber. He is a man
for whom they feel a strong graft

tinue the good service he has al

when School ssLets Out.''

When school lets out delicious
event for the average American
younester! For three months or more
there isaa sweet cessation OF b car
rying of books and states and luncn
boxes and of .creeping like snail un~
willingly to school," as Shakespeare
puts it. Instead of the lunch box or
pail the boy now carries the tin can
full of bait. red worms dug from the
soft, rich soil back of the barn, or the
big bucket Of minnows seined from
the brook, or he takes the baseball
bat and mask and mitt and joins his
fellows on the school lot with no rear
of hearing the hateful bell ring at
close of the brief recess. The hberat-
ed schoolgirl may pick wild flowers at
will or visit around. engage in play
parties and otherwise enjoy herself.
Grown people are wont to say thai
their school days were the happlest
ones they have known. That is the
dignifed grownup way of expressing
q half truth. The whole truth Is that
the days between the school days, the
summer vacation. really were the hap
piest. 1t was then that we knew the
joy of living. Only here and there
as we recall. was a boy or girl so
studious as to regret the letting out OF
school. And the present generation OF
children is very much like the one to
which we adults belonged. Childhood
naturally resents bounds and bonds
and it is a wise thing that for three
or four months each year the majority
of children are permitted to pursue
happiness pretty much according to
their own inclinations.

in favor of Gunder Olson of Graf
ton, candidate for state treasurer.
If all candidates for office were of

over the outcome of election, for
there is no man in the state of
North Dakota who enjoys a high
es reputation for probity, honesty

He has been a resident of Walsh
county for a great many years and
he numbers his friends every
where in the state. In public and
private life he has been an ideal

It Is an Airsh1p.

According to the dictionary makers,
only a seagoing vessel is a ship. But
a craft supported upon the air and

may be identical in the main with the

the course made classic by the first
steamship is another. and a greater

steamer time on the Hudson in two.
He was not racing against time. A
day steamer stops oftener than did
Curtiss. but even emitting all stops it
could not make the run in less time

Accidents to Submarine Warships.
The feature which makes disaster
peculiarly distressing in the case of a
submarine warship is that the crew
has practically no chance Of escape.
On all other classes Of vessels the
chances of escape are many. The &C.
cupants of the doomed craft may get
into lifeboats or be able to float or
swim until rescue comes. In the re-
cent disaster to the French submarine
Pluviose there was no chance what
ever for the twenty-seven men pen
ned in her when she was run down in
a fog to escape.
Numerous disasters to submarines
have been recorded the last two years.
In no case was the vessel engaged in
warfare. 1t would seem that the risks
could be minimized by extraordinary
care in the matter of signaling when
the vessel is sailing under water in
the highway of traffic. The numer-
Gus accidents to submarines at their
mornings show that the operation of
them is extra hazardous. There should
be extra safeguards provided for the
crews who enter them when there is
no emergency dustifying the risk.
