AN EARNEST WORKER THIS.

YOrkville has had q visit from Rev.
Sidney Love. superintendent of the
Columbia Industrial association. and
the visit has been profitable. not only
to Mr. Love. but to those who came in
contact with him.
Mr.. Love came unheralded, except by
q short newspaper advertisement and
some circulars scattered over the town
and neither gave much information.
except that he would deliver an address
in the court house Sunday afternoon:
but during his visit he impressed u
great MANY people that he is an earn
est and effective worker in a very i'm
p0rtant field.
The lecture in the court mouse was
attended by q hundred or more people.
to whom the speaker told an interest
ing story about himself and his work.
He is an EngliShman. born and reared
i'm the SlumS Of London. His father
was Baptist preacher. who worked
among the poor. and tin" son was rear
cd t. his fathers calling. He has been
in America for several Years. and his
work has been along the line of trying
to hclp pcopl" about whom other peO-
pie do not seem To Carr--thc unfor-
tunatcs and the outcasts of society.
At present he iS in charge of Il home
for aged women i'm Columbia. He has
quit" house full. som" eighteen or
twenty. and supports them by dnna-
tions from the charitably inclined. He
does not seem to be in any sense a
hcggar He does not importune people
t. give to the cause he represents. His
method is to tell the story of the classes
with which the world ut large wants
nothing tn do. and then leave it to the
Judgment ana inclination of his hear
ers to contribute nr not. as they like.
But from his story. the home is not
tn, only charge Of the Industrial aSSn-
citation. Cities like Columbia. as well
as many smaller places contain large
numbers Of dependent people. widows
and their children generally. who need
help. nut who are unwilling To accept
aims The problem in cases Of this
kind is to look out for suitable employ
mrnt that will enable such people to
earn an honest liVclihnod without their
appearing To- depend upon anybndt.
Mr.. Love has been enabled tn help
numbers Of such people by first pro-
curing for them the means t. make
$;lIcabIc articles of dress etc. and then
arranging To- plaC" their output ut Il
profit.

Mr.. S. L. Pursey Of the Bethany
neighborhood. remarks that this is the
most favorable spring there has been
for farm work in ten years or more.
Although we cannot see that the re-
peal of the lien law has materially aug
mented the labor supply as it was
intended to do, we frankly believe that
rigid enforcement of the vagrancy
law would accomplish wonders along
that line.
The rains of the past few days. al
though by no means as copious as
seemed desirable, have been very ac-
ceptable nevertheless. The ground had
become so hard that plOwing was al
most impossible and in some localities
the work of planting mad to be stop
ped. Since the rain, however. condi-
tions have been very much improved.
"For sale, corn, fodder and bees
So reads an advertisement that Mr..
John B. PlaXco of No. 4, YOrkville, has
in todays Enquirer, and although 1t
sounds like very simple proposition,
it is not. Probably there are great
many people who have bees that they
would sell: but there are not so many
who can offer corn and fodder. Ordi-
narly in this country, such an adver-
tiscment would suggest that the adver-
tiser is hard up." but that is certainly
not true Of MI. PlaxcO. He is adver-
tisng corn aud fodder for sale, simply
because he has more than enough to
supply his stock. and that Is the unu-
sual feature of the whole situation.
While there ma" be a great many far
mers in the county. who have enough
corn and fodder to do. there are not
nearly so many who have these things
to spare. Another very essential point
in connection with this matter is that
the things that Mr.. PlaxcO is offering
are very pronerly to be regarded as
quick assets" They have an estab-
lished price, and there are to be found
just plenty of people who are willing to
pay that price AS has been remarked,
Mr.. PlaXco does not have to sell the
articles he is advertising, for the man
who has an OverSupply of his own corn
and fodder on nand, generally has the
means with which to get almost any
thing else he wants

VALUE Of COAL DEPOSITS
MEANS MANUFACTURERS

The people of North Dakota seem
scarcely 10 realize what the enormous
deposits of Ignite mean to them. First
of all it means cheap power for q thous-
and years. With cheap power all of
the wheat raised in the state will be
made into -four at home. The 1909
crop alone would make IS. 900. 600
barrels Of -four. When this time
arrives. and come it will. the dockaae
problem as now fixed by Minnesota will
be a thing of the past, the farmers
will get the full milling value Of their
wheat and have what few cleanings'
there may be for feed.
Not only will all of the wheat be
ground at home, but the z. 900, 600 tons
of fax straw now burned annually will
be made into linen goods and all of
the many by-products.
Professor H. Bachelor of Fargo, who
has made an exhaustive study of North
Dakota Ignite, is authority for the
statement, THAT this valuable fuel
will make this state the richest in the
union" Prof. Bachelor is quoted as
saying, my investigations of our lie-
mite convince me that power can be
produced more cheaply here than in any
part of the world. that its gas making
properties give it a value second to no
other coal, that gas can and will be
made and sold at figures that will
astonish the rest of the country. This
gas will be used in the manufacture
of clay products and glass and turn out
a superior product, al. a low cost"
Professor William Blaine Snyder, who
has charge of the Mining Experiment
sub-station at Hebron. is of the opinion
that power car be produced in North
Dakota cheaper than elsewhere. he said
Il am convinced as a result of my
Investigations. that North Dakota will
furnish the entire northwest with fuel.
When our Ignite is properly prepared
at the mine, it makes a fuel equal to
the average COAL"
Senator McCumber stated, The de-
velopment of our vast Ignite deposits
will make North Dakota the most i'm :
portant manufacturing state in the
union. 1t will free the state from the
donation of terminal markets in the
sale of grain, which means to the farm
ers an average of 10c a bushel saving
in railroad freights and dockage."
Congressman Hanna stated. II regard
the development of our enormous de-
posits of Ignite as a matter of great
importance 10 all of our citizens. The
development of manufacturing will give
steady employment to all. il will be
the ean of equalizing the labor situa-
tion. The mills will close down fol
a general overhauling, as is the custom
during the harvesting season. this will
furnish the farmer with harvest hands
right at home and will give the mill
hands a recreation in the shape of out
of door work for a few weeks"
