sion of congress will have demo-
cratic house, Mr.. Bede adds that he
hopes for this condition. To quote
his words, he says: zone session OF
congress with a democratic, house
would straighten out things amazing
". The democrats would be hope
lessly divided and the republicans
would have an opportunity of finding
out what they really do want. Let
the hurrah element have chance.
William Howard Taft is the greatest
president the country has had. He
has done more in the first year of his
administration than Theodore Roose-
Welt did in the first four years and
the country will find this out before
the next campaign. Roosevelt's work
was done during his second term
Under the present tariff law we are
paying our debts. That is more than
we can say for the period from 1897
to the present time. I am low tar
if man, but realize that you cant
frame a tariff law which will yield
the immense sum necessary to run
the country and at the same time
please every section. You can't get
an idea OF tariff in a minute" Quite
in contrast with the sentiments Of
the Minnesota gentleman are the ex-
pressions of distrust and mistrust
of Hon. Thomas F. Marshall, who, in
a Minneapolis interview, and lapse
of memory extending back to the
political crime at the Grand Forks
convention when he was first chosen
member of congress, ascribes to
the insurgent movement, of which he
admits his leadership, if not dictator
ship, in this state, all the virtues Of
political action worth while. He de-
clares that he and his followers are
overwhelmingly the whole thing, anu
that it is very likely that the next
republican convention in North Da-
kota will repudiate Taft and oppose
his administration. Boosting of
these attributes of craftsmanship it
is entirely probable that the ultra
insurgents will successfully impede
the program in congress and else
where of those reform measures
pledged by the republicans in their
national and state platforms and
urged by President Taft. And all to
the pleasure and satisfaction of de-
mocracy.

CON.

Former member of congress, J. Ad-
am Bede, from Minnesota, noted lec
turer, newspaper man and humorist,
is not one of those republican states
men who get "col1 feet" whenever
political squalls appear. He has been
in Washington as we'll as at home a
constant mixer with the people and
he knows how the game of politics is
played, how great economic questions
are handled and how tariff measures
are made. Bede is something OF a
philosopher. He regrets that there
are dissentions in the republican par
ty but attributes these troubles, not
entirely to the anxiety of the 'outs''
to get "in,' but believes this char
acteristic of political human nature
to be somewhat prominent just now.
He is not an apologist for the present
administration, but an admirer of it

The Bar association of Grand

didacy of c. M. Cooley of Grand
Forks, for the supreme bench. OF
this action the Herald says: "Mr
Cooley has been a practicing attor-
ney in this city for many years. He
is held in high esteem by his legal
associates, and his is known by all his
acquaintances to be a man of high

reason to believe that if elected he

IS HALLEY'S COMET RESPONS.
IBLE?

IBLE?
In some scientific circles the re-
markable atmospheric conditions ex-
listing this spring throughout the
country are attributed to Halley's
comet. Prof. Frost of Yerkes' OBJ
servatory in Wisconsin some days
ago made announcement of peculiar
sun disturbances. These may or may
not be caused by the great monster
that is seething madly through space
leaving tail of light, gas and heat
in its wake millions upon millions Of
miles long. OF the recent sun dis
turbances Prof. Frost says:
1.-THE eruptions shoot from the sur
face of the sun like skyrockets. They
are easily visible at the disk. One
of them shot out to a length of 1907
900 miles, as near as we could esti-
mate. It then detached itself and
sped through space like comat.
Before it disappeared it had reached
a distance of ESQ, 900. The eruptions
are probably caused by the release of
pressure on particular spots on the
SUM-"
That conditions on this little globe
of ours are entirety controlled and
affected by the relations of the sun
and the planets is we'll established,
and that the heavens and it's messen-
gers in space have been so accurately
and timed in their orbits
the wonder of astronomy,
the most fascinating of the sciences.
The recurrence of Halley's comet,
so accurately predicted three-quar-
ters of a century ago is daily looked
to with some feeling of awe by many :
because Of the seeming connection of

amount of it's proportion Of the VOL
untary subscriptions for this propo-
sition, it is with sadness that we con-
template the position of Editor Falk-
enstein In this matter. Almost every
body else thinks the donating of a
silver service Is entirely proper AMI
that the legislature did not make the
appropriation was because it is pro-
hibited by the constitution to make
such appropriations. Anyhow there
is more sentiment in the voluntary
subscription scheme and when a peo-
pie gets above sentimentalism life
will not be worth living.
The leading weekly newspapers
throughout the state are increasing
their subscription rates to $3.50 per
year, and very properly; because it
is impossible for newspaper to lie
as "leading""as Its readers would
like to have it on tho Old price. Ev-
cry day now the newspaper publish
eds are being advised of advance in
cost of paper and material and the
raise promises to be still greater dur
ing the season. An increase in sub
scription, in advertising and in rates
for job printing are absolutely essen
tial to the solvency Of the >newspa-
pers of the northwest.
