BURKE FOR EMPEROR.

Grand Forks, N. D., Sept. 1910
The Forum: / am a reader of The
Forum and note the paper is not anx-
ious to see Governor Burke reelected.
like The Forum, all except it's politics,
and want to tell you the combination
of democrats and sore republicans will
not only re-elect Burke this fall, but
we will keep right on electing him
every Two years. We can make him
emDEtor of North Dakota if we want to.
L. n. T.
The Forum is in receipt of the fore
going letter in which a reader threatens
to keep right on electing Burke every
campaign till he's made emperor OF
North Dakota" That's certainly going
some.
Come to think of it--Emperor John
Burke I.-would sound bigger than
mere governor-and the title would be
more in harmony with the dignity and
the imposing appearance of the man.
He could also find it less difficult
to. increase his salary-and the public
wouldn't dare criticise his vetoes SC
freely.
'Rah for John Burke, Emp. /.

sorrow than women-but often display
them In places that are not much In
keeping with the sentiments they are
supposed to express. A man with a
black band around his arm doesn't look
any better in a saloon than some of the
other patrons.
The organization to abolish mourn
ing will probably have considerable
difficulty in accomplishing its object.
There are great many converts to the
idea-but many more who will refuse
to depart from the customs of their
mothers and their grandmothers. After
all 1t is largely a matter of personal
preference.

TO ABOLISH MOURNING.

"A movement has been started insthe
east to form national organization to
discourage the wearing of mourning
for deceased members of the family.
1T Is common In many sections of the
country, especially among the women
to wear habiliments of woe whenever
relatives die In some localities tie
custom is much more exaggerated than
In. Others.
The contention is made that the hab-
iteof wearing black dresses and yards
and yards Of crepe Is merely an adyer-
tisement of personal grief-rather than
d genuine method Of expressing IT.

DON'T GO DOWN.

The Insurance Age has the following
good advice:
When the waters closing round you,
and you think you're going to drown,
just grit your teeth together, and swear
you won't go down. There's life-sav-
ers all around you-friends to lend a
helping hand, and when the seas seem
toughest, you are likely near the
land. Do not let a wave of trouble
quench and overwhelm you quite
treat it like passing bubble-you will
shortly see the light. So when the
oceans stormy and you think you're
going to drown, just grit you teeth to-
gether and swear you won't go down!

Travellers Tales

Some people often get into a guam
dairy and never know how to get out
of it. Traffic Manager Kennedy of the
Great Northern tells a tale of a coun !.
try editor out in Montana.
The editor was to receive very
nice bonus from the town If he would
settle there start a paper and get
1t under way before a certain date.
When the new type arrived for the
paper the editor found that the type
foundry failed to send him any "f's
or ks for the type body. He was
far away from the railroad, and
farther away from the type foundry
and it was but few days until he
would have to publish the paper or
lose the coveted bonus.
However his ingenius mind got
around the situation and met the pro-
position in a very capable manner.
The paper appeared the last day be-
fore the bonus contract expired and
on the front page was a small border
story which ran like this
1--WE are phree to say, In this our
phirst issue, that one of the most
painful duties that ever. phalls to the
lot of an editor is ours this day: Per-
haps our readers win, take the hint

IDloTIC HABIT.

There is a sentiment over the coun-
try that the charivari business at the
expense of the newlyweds has been
overdone. The Woman's Daily has the
following timely EDITORIAL:
There is a distinct line which should
be drawn between fun and rowdyism.
Of late years there has been an increas-
ing tendency on the part of some peo-
pie who are SO witty that they prob
ably have trouble in restraining them
selves from writing at least one alma
nae a year, to make life miserable for
their newly married friends and ac-
quaintances. In their exuberance of
spirit they have passed the bounds set
by the master of ceremonies at the old
fashioned charivari. First there were the
mirth provoking labels on the tourists
baggage, the placards on the cabs and
the kilograms calculated to make life
miserable fr two persons who had
hoped to set out sOberly and lovingly
upon life's journey.
Now the humorists have become
tired of these diversions. Something
more original must be done. And it
was done, down in Oklahoma a few
nights ago. The result is that a bride
groom is near death and the bride
looks forward to widowhood. Funny,
isn't it? 1t was all a joke, of course,
when the men who had been guests at
the wedding attempted to kidnap the
young benedict just as the train started
and allow the bride to proceed on her
journey alone. In the scuffle which
was inevitable the husband received
an injury which may prove fatal. He
was FASTENED to hospital, where he
lies in a precarious condition.
Why should a wedding be regarded
as such a side-splitting joke? Mar
riage is the most sacred of civiliza-
TONS institutions. 1t is not an occa-
sion for sorrow. or even for tears and
long faces But neither Fit an occa-
sion for the display . wanton fool
hardness. Let's all wait until there is
something to laugh about
