TRANsGRESSlNG THE LAW.

The Philadelphia street car strike
is producing illustrations of the kind
of talk and actions that should not be
INDUCED in at any time. That they
appear from both sides may he an in
dication that they are inevitable in
connection with industrial conflicts.
But they also show that the spirit Of
such collisions is not favorable to the
welfare of the community.
On one side. If 1t is true that a
union leader declared that If one
man is shot in Kensington there will
be carnival Of riot and bloodshed
which will startle the nation" and
that there are men in the north
west who can shoot as straight as any
trooper" he INDUCED in a clear threat
against the public peace. Whether he
actually did say that, and what is the
status of such words in the eye Of
the law, is a matter for the courts to
decide.
On the other hand. some acts and
words attributed to Director Clay Of
the department of public safety re-
call charges heretofore made that the
Philadelphia police regard it as their
function to suppress strikers. The
words quoted as coming from him
are: The strike is memory" and
the act reported was to forbid the use
of wagons on the streets to carry
those not wishing to ride in the cars
The duties and functions of both
police and state constabulary are very
clearly defined. They are to preserve
order, to suppress violence in any
form and to arrest those wantonly
breaking the peace. But that does not
cover any acts either to force the
running of cars or to forbid alterna-
tive means Of transit II Director
Clay forbade the use of wagons to
carry people who do not wish to ride
in the cars he committed just as
much of usurpation as if he had
forbidden the use of wagons to haul
potatoes or household goods.
There should be positive mainte-
nance of order in such emergencies
as this. But police officials who 20
beyond the law are just as obnoxious
as workingmen who do the same
thing on the other side.

THE COMMISSION PLAN.

The election on adopting the COM
mission plan of government for the
city is matter of history. The will
Of the people as recorded by the votes
shows that at this time they are not
In favor of the change. Any analysis
Of the vote would throw but little
light on the matter not easily read
In the tabulated report. Two years
ago in the mayoralty election 2.199
votes were cast. The voting popula-
ton of the city is probably larger
now than it was then. The total vote
in the commission plan election. was
965, considerably less than half the
actual vote Of the city.
During the last three months a
campaign in favor of the commission
has been conducted by the morning
paper and by a number of public
meetings in one of which speaker
of prominence was brought here from
another city to speak in behalf of the
adoption. Workers in favor Of the
plan were at many of the polling
places. It is, therefore, reasonable
to believe that the entire strength Of
those in favor Of the plan was polled.
Those who were opposed made no
campaign and had no organization.
The morning paper has a reading
circulation in the city Of probably
1900 and it used columns of matter
in favor Of the plan, but with less
than 500 votes cast in favor of the
plan, the conclusion is evitable that
less than one in three did not read
the matter. or reading it, refused to
be convinced.
One thing which has been a serious
drawback to the plan. and one against
which Roadway could not be made,
is the fact that the city government
of Grand Forks is q model of cleanli-
ness. There is no faint of graft or
corruption, and the city government
is as much q matter Of pride as it's
public improvements. The fact. too,
that some Of the cities held up as
models in commission government
have secured their bookkeeping and
administrative system from Grand
Forks. was the cause of some of the
eompaign falling on deaf ears.
TIE statement in the closing days
II the campaign that it was what was
termed the 'old gang" which was
opposing the plan could probably be
answered by the suggestion that such
statements come only from men mar
row between the eyes. The truth is
that there were no factlonal or party
alignments. Democrats, insurgents
and regulars-as the old branding
would be-were opposing the plan
and in the lineup Of those favoring the
plan, the same political assortment
prevailed.
The diversion is past. The citizenry
has spoken. The verdict is recorded
and it is now time to turn attention
to bigger questions that will make
Grand Forks a city of greater op
portunities than 1t even is now. ant
will continue to make the distance

TO HANDLE A GUN PROPERLY
Dangerous Weapon Unless Care Is Elk
ercised-Six Rules for Guidance
Of Boys In Hunting.

II boys go hunting they must carry
guns, and guns are dangerous unless
they are handled properly. A writer
In Forest and Stream gives six rules
for the guidance of boys in handling
guns, that are worth publication.
1. Empty or loaded, never point a
gun toward yourself or any other per-
son.
2 When a-fleld, carry your gun at
the half-cock. If in cover, let your
hand shield the hammers from whip
ping twigs.
3. When riding from one shooting
ground to another, or whenever you
have your gun in any conveyance. re-
move the cartridges, If a breech-load-
er. it being so easy to replace them.
4. Never draw a gun toward you
by the barrel.
5. More care is necessary in the use
OF gun in a boat than elsewhere
the limited space, confined action and
uncertain motion making it dangerous,
at the best. If possible, no more than
two persons should occupy a boat
Hammerless guns are a constant dan
ger to persons boating
6. Always clean your gun thorough
ly. as soon as you return from q days
sport, no matter how tired you feel;
the consequence of its always being
ready for service is ample return for
the few minutes irksome labor.

FIGHTERS IN THE MAJORITY
Veteran Member of Congregation Was
Tired of Part He Had Been
Playing.

Representative Harry Maynard Of
Virginia tells the story of how re-
ligious old negro in his district put a
stop to the exercise of Christian char
ity in the congregation Of which he
was a member. 1t seems that it was
a practise in the church to excom-
municate for one year any member
who had been guilty of blood fight"
that is, any man who had attacked
another with pistol or a razor.
At the end of the year, if the Of
fender wished reinstatement, he could
go to the "mourners' bench" rise and
declare his repentance, and be forgiven
by the congregation. This went on
for many years. At last a young
darky who had been in a particularly
Objectionable broil appeared for rein
statement The pastor made an elo-
quent appeal to the congregation and
everybody began to shout and say

Follow this advice

Quaker Oats is the best of all foods;
It is also the cheapest When such
men as Prof. Fisher of Yale University
and Sir James Crichton Browne,
LL.D.-FR.S. of London spend the
best parts of their lives in studying
the great question of the nourishing
and Strengthening qualities OF different
foods, it is certain that their advice is
absolutely safe to follow.
Professor Fisher found in his ex-
periments for testing the strength and
endurance of athletes that the meat
eaters were exhausted long before the
men who were fed on such food as
Quaker Oats. The powers of endur-
ance of the non-meat eaters were
about eight times those of the meat
eaters.

The pearl divers of Japan are the

dropped into the tubs suspended from
their waists.
When these vessels are filled the
divers are raised to the surface and
jump into the boats. They dive to a
depth of from 8 to 80 fathoms without
any special apparatus and retain their

Diplomacy.

Here is a story about diplomatic
negro waiter; also about two we'll
known Kansas men, who can go by
the names of Smith and Jones, just to
tell the yarn.
Smith and Jones look much alike
and are frequently taken for each
other. One day Smith was in a GER
tain big hotel not a thousand miles
from Kansas City and went into the
dining room for dinner. The negro
waiter busily brushed off the crumbs
and said: why, how is you, Mr..
Jones, how is you? rs glad to see you.
! hasn't seen you since waited on
your table when you all used to have
q little game upstaihs."
I'm fraid you are mistaken" said
Smith, very quickly. my name isn't
Jones. You have the wrong man."
'Nuff said; nuff said" smiled the ne
gro with much bowling and scraping.
