It takes strength and stability; it
takes good management and the deep

"GREATEST EXHIBITION YET"
SAYS BUFFALO BILL.

In all his experience Col. Cody CBuf-
| falO Bid, would never permit any an
lnouncement concerning his exhibition
that was not correct. Cody has never
permitted a deceit to be practicedhOn
the public; in turn the public has come
to welcome all his statements as facts
the greater then the disappointment
to shear from his own lips that this
visit here will be his last.
Col. Cody is to retire from arenic
work and enjoy the rest his thirty long
years of active service in Wild West
exhibitions entitle him. The season
thus far, ever since leaving New York
has been one continued ovation to the
great pIainsmanf3n every city Buffalo
Bill has personal friends; millions will
regret his desire to retire to seclusion
The word is final-this will be his last
visit in this city. AS a fitting COM
pliment to his departure from active
fields to the halcyon days Of a we'll
earned rest, the combined exhibition of
BuffalS Bills Wild West and Pawnee
Bills Far East has been brought to the
.superlative degree of perfection. New
er in all his life's work has Col Cody
been surrounded with such an aggre-
cation of talent. West and east have
contributed generously to the pro-
gramme. Combine this great exhibit
ton of last season with the one other
greatest entertainment ever seen and
yet the description would not ade-
quately fitEthe gigantic show coming
here Within the next few days.
Col Cody, through years of expert
ence and close intimacy with the great
characters that go to make up the
west, is enabled to secure the best, and
from the Far East Major Lilies agents
returned with all that was unique, out
ofFHhe ordinary andGSfkgreat interest
to the amusement-loving public. The
result has been an arenic entertain
ment that made New York acclaim in
wonder. And positively the same, ex-
hibition to it's smallest detail thatRde-
lighted Manhattan's thousands at Mad
isOn Square Garden, will come to this
city in a few days
This will be Col w. F. Cody's (Buf-
falo BilD final goodbye.

FIRING FROM ABOVE.

New phases of war have developed
with the airsbip, and the world needs
but a war at this time to demonstrate
the use of the dropped projectile.
Although protest is made by the pa
cifcists against this method of war
fare there is no tacit agreement to
prevent such action.
Just why a projectile should not be
dropped while it may be fired is not
to be discerned from a logical view
point.
At 400 feet elevation and travelling
forty miles an hour, Curtiss' aim was
sufficiently good to hit battleship
easily No ordnance that she carries
could destroy him.
He was we'll within rifle range, but,
as Mr.. Maxim has shown, a thousand
bullets could pierce his planes with
out disabling him. Col. William Allen
Jones, formerly of the engineer corps,
points out that the pilot and motor
could be protected against rifle shot
from below.
The war of the future viii be a wild
er, more romantic carnival of death
with it's airships and submarines--than
Verne ever conceived in his prophetic
dreams of the conquest of the air.

DRUG PERMITS.

The North Dakota druggists want
the present permit law repealed. They
insist it. is unfair and advance many
reasons to show it's inadequacy. AL
most every one will admit the permit
law is drastic, but from the manner in
which certain peopIe--operating under
the guise Of druggists-had abused
the old law, radical action was neces-
sary.
The druggists of North Dakota have
been handicapped by the fact that in
certain localities, in former years. in
dividuals have imagined they saw
great fields to secure ill-gotten gains
by starting an alleged drug store and
selling booze. This class has been elm
mated to some extent by the new law.
They will be weeded out later and the
reputable druggists will not lament
The decent ones have to bear the con-
tumely and disgrace for which the
crooked fellows are responsible.
While it is unlikely the present per-
NIT law will be repealed the necessity
of some important amendments is con-
coded. The druggists will have a dele
cation at the next session of the legis-
lature and will insist on changes.

Travellers Tales

They were all seated at the big-six
table and were just finishing the
midday meal when John Bathrick be-
gan to speak of fishing. 1t is danger

man to rpring at that particular table
| for each of the gentlemen who COM
prise the regulars" are known as
among the most truthful in the entire
state. John had been fishing down on
the Little Pine and he gave an ac-
count of some of the fish that he had
caught. There were none present to
contradict what he said only Barney
Kimball sort of snorted and said:
Talk about fishing. Why down in
New York state off the break water
in the Niagara river below Buffalo we
used to fish with young frogs and 1t
was not an uncommon thing to catch
a sturgeon that was over six feet long.
They are a great big fish and their
meat tastes just like that of a young
chicken. 1t was here that the habit
of fishing with the use of a bell was
first introduced. This was done by
the man who lived near the river ty-
ing his fishing line to bell and when
ever a fish so much as nibbled the
bell rang, and the fisherman attended
to the rest"
Sam Crabbe said that he didn't
think that was much of an arrange

when we were fishing out at Little
Pine. We ran out of frogs, had no
worms and the fish wouldn't bite at
grasshoppers. One of our party caught
a small striped snake, which he cut
into four or five pieces and we baited

more than two minutes until each of

AMERICAN EXTRAVAGANcE.

| The ultimate downfall of the Amer
ican republic has been often predicted.
One of the favorite ways of such pro-
phecy is to pick out some present day
condition-and find an analogy to it in
the condition of Greece and Rome just
prior to their fall.
Every man should be an optimist,
but every optimist should consider
diligently what the pessimist sets be-
fore him.
Several men of national prominence
who are leaders in widely different
fields of activity have recently utter
ed protests against very marked ten
dency in American Hfe-that toward
riches. pleasure and extrava gance.
Said Senator Lodge in a recent
speech at Provincetown, Mass:
In this age of ours money and ma
teTial success have assumed proper
tions never before witnessed. Both are
proper and necessary objects OF am
bition: neither is a lofty and complete
ideal. We see the dangers :hey breed.

On his return to the United States
from several months stay in Europe,
Benjamin Ide Wheeler, president Of
the University of California, made the
following statement:

THE FARMER IN THE CABINET

James Wilson is rs years old. Mr.
Wilson has been at the head of the de-
partment of agriculture during the
terms of three presidents. He is a
democrat but his political complexion
has been lost sight of Ia his derart-
mental activity.
Mr.. Wilson has some enemies who
would see him ousted and the position
given to someone nearer the presiden-
tial throne. But man cannot be-
come an agricultural expert in a twink
ling-and it win take the next secre-
tary of agriculture years and years to
learn what "Tama" Jim Wilson al
ready knows.
That Wilson is man of superior
mentality and unusual executive abiI-
ity is proven by the activity of his de-
partment and the attention given to it's
minuest details.
Wilson is somewhat of q negative
politician. His attitude is one calcu-
lated to avoid controversy of any kind.
One thing stands out In Wilson'S
character. He loves his position-he
wants to hold it-and he resents any
Inference that be is about to resign or
be released from his official duties.
