ATTACKS ON FISK.

Justice Fisk Of the state supreme
court is not Of the same political faith
as The Forum--but that does not pre-
vent recognition Of his many excellent
qualities and remarkable fitness for the
position he fills.
The recent attack on him by r. b.
GriG1th, vice president of the state en-
foroement league, is one of the most
evident attempts to coerce the judic-
larry The Forum recalls.
The speaker charged Judge Fisk with
standing in with the liquor interests
and working in their behalf. His In
dignation was apparently over the re-
cent malt case decision to which Jus
tice Fisk dlssented.
Mr.. Grifith overlooked other decis-
tons by Judge Fisk in favor Of the pro-
hibition law.
Such wsnton attacks as that made
by NJ Griffith are unlikely to do the
cause he espouses any particular good
The public is disposed to be fair. No
ons-sided statement by the Grand
Forks merchant will be able to dis
credit Judge Fisk with the mass Of the
voters--ahough such incorporate ut

THE r.. r. WAGE INCREASE.


The Chicago Record Herald calls at
tention to the recent announcements OF
increase of wages to many employees of
the railroads Of the country, as fol-
lows:
An Improvement in general business
conditions, both material and moral, ID
indicated by the adavnce in wages
which is announced by leading eastern
railroads. The Pennsylvania has in
creased the pay roll Of its lesser en-
ployes TO the extent of 100000, and
the Philadelphia and Reading to the
extent of sl,40000O. Some 235,00o men
benefit by the charge.
The acknowledged increase in the
cost of living provides the chief rea-
son for the advance, and the great ex-
pansion Of the volume of business due
TO widespread prosperity, provides the
means.
A gratifying feature Of the advance
is that it is voluntary. Without con-
troversy or coercion. a handsarne trib-
ute has been paid to expediency and
justice.
We trust the day is near when a
step Of this nature will no longer pro-
woke comment by reason Of it's rarity
Every such example counts, and these
examples, as they multiply, will oper-
ate with a cumulative force.
The example set by the railroads is
likely to be followed. on even a larger
scale. by the United States Steel cor
poration. An advance at the same rate
as that granted by the railroads, 6 per
cent, is anticipated. It would mean to
the corporation an increased pay roll
of more than 100000. But the en-
suing advantages, social and economi-
cal, will be worth the money.

April Minneapolis Symphony
Orchestra.
April 11.--Pirats OF Penzance.
April 13.--House Thousand Candles.
The people of Fargo are to have an
other opportunity to hear the famous
Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra,
which will give one concert in this
city Thursday evening, April Z, on it's
way from its annual music festival in
Winnipeg. The orchestra, larger and
finer than ever, under the direc-
ton Of Emil Oberhoffer, will give
one Of it's best programmes in
Fargo, and should have a packed
house. Four fine vocaiists accompany
the orchestra on its nine weeks fes-
tival tour. and all will be heard in
Fargo. The singers are Lucille Tewks-
bury, the finest oratorio soprano i'm the
country. Marietta BIgby, one of the
foremost New York contraltos, David
Dugsan, the young Scotch tenor, said
to have one of the most beautiful
voices out side of rrand opera. and
Arthur Middleton, unquestionably the
greatest basso in America Mr.. Mid
dleton was with the orchestra on it's
six weeks tour last spring, arousing
greatest enthusiasm everywhere and
was Immediately re-ensaged for this
years tour, owing to the unanimous
and urgent requests from local COM
mittees everywhere. No one who heard
him at Fargo last spring will want to
miss the opportunity of hearing him
again, while the assurance is given
that the other singers are of EQUAL
ability. One of the effective numbers
of the programme will be the great
Trio Finale from Faust, with Lucille
Tewksbury as Margarine, David Dug
gan as Faust, and Arthur Middleton
as Mephisto. It is understood that the
future visits of the orchestra to Far
go depend largely upon the patronage
accorded this concert and for this rea-
son all who are interested in the rnu-
| steal development Of the city. should
lend their support n every way.

This promises to be North Dakota's
busiest year. Aside from the ordinary
building in the older and established
towns there will be rush of new con-
struction in several parts of the state
as a result of the railway lines which
open up additional territory and pro-
vides locations for probably 100 new
towns in North Dakota.
Contractors. carpenters. bricllayers
concrete workers and other lines will

Of high living, rather than the high cost
OF living. But in this land of plenty ev-
eryone is accustomed to living well
and the political party which tries to
force the public to live less expensive
ly will certainly meet defeat. The vct-
ing public demands reduction in the
cost Of living, and will accept no sub

CARNEGIE AND WEALTH.

Andrew Carnegie has been giving a
little advice as to- the distribution OF
wealth. It sounds good, particularly
when coming from the "Ssge Of Skib-
bo," who made his millions without re-
gard to the manner in which mems
spirits or hearts were broken. Mr.. Car
negie said long ago that ne considered
it disgrace for a man to die rich. 1t
might not be so much OF a disgrace
IL the accumulation OF wealth were rea-
sonably just to those who helped him
pile UP his money through their labor.
The man who grinds down labor
thwarts the growth OF men-%drives
them to early graves or destroys their
Joy in life simply because he and his
associates have a greed for wealth.
does well to talk of distributing wealth
The only way that any man can win
the approval OF decent people the
only way in which he can justify him
self before the Great Giver of all good
gifts and his fellow man--is to pay
the men employed by him a decent
wage. This should be such a wage that
will permit them to take care of their
families right--that will permit them to
educate their children for good citizen
ship-and to lay something by for the
time when old age will incapaclate
them from la.bor-or when illness lays
its heavy hand upon them.

North Dakota Political Gossip

effect that our roads would be impas-
sable until May is. Or does he think at

put him in office are the least Of his
troubles. In fact we doubt very much
if he ever thinks of North Dakota until
along about election time and then only
some other bluff he can run on them
SO as to get back in Office. This Is the
style of men that the progressives or
insurgents are trying to put in office.
They are al the same. They have
run the course in one party or another
and turned to the insurgents as a last
resort. The insurgents are glad TO
have them as candidates. What will
become of these men when the insurg-
ents are; through with them, is still an
open question.

papers Of the state are poking a lot
