Williston, N. D., Feb. Ito The Fo-
rum: On Friday evening of last week
the local members of the Valley City
Alumni association, of which there are
about fifteen in town, gathered at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. G.. A. Gilmore

The weather for the past week has
been so mild that water is running on
the ice near each bank of the Missouri
river to such an extent that 1t is hard
to cross. This has been the mildest
January In this section OF the state
ever known.
The Odd Fellow block. which was

PEN WAREENsHIP.

1t appears that Governor Burke will
appoint The warden OF the penitentiary
by proxy. Instead of making the APP
pointent direct he selects the board
and the board names the warden. In
ttAs manner there is C. technical eva
sion of Section 80 of the State consti-
tuition, which says no member Of the
legislature shall be given a civil ap-
pointment by the governor.
There will, therefore, be no legal diff
ficulties in the way Of selecting state
Senator Macarthur warden of the peni-
Tertiary.

Bottineau Courant: who has given
e. L. Garden OF Souris or w. J. Ander-
son of Rugby authority to represent
the fnsurgent voters Of the ninth
judicial district? They claim to
represent the dominant faction in the
republican party I'm North Dakota and
here that the slate they pick out will
become the republican ticket. Under
the old convention system four or Ave
hundred delegates representing every
county In the state selected the ticket.
Now 1t is to be selected by twenty one
politicians representing less than half
the counties in the state. The people
formerly chose delegates to state con-
ventions. Did the people have any
choice in the selection of 10 Garden
and Billy Anderson7 In November, 1907
when Garden was In the slate making
business at Grand Forks he permitted
other apostles of reform to sit in the
inner councils with him, for we find
by the records that F. w. Cathro, ]. A..
Painter Peter Scott, T. G. Michael and
Matt Johnson were also the accredited
delegates from Bottineau county. But
Messrs. Cathro ct al, have been elm
mated. The insurgent movement has
become close corporation. The motto
Let the people rule" has been turned
to the wall and the pictures of Thos.
and AISLE hung in its stead.
Lisbon Free Press: Not few of our
North Dakota newspapers seem to he
afflicted with personal journalism"
or a supreme desire to advance the
political interests of one man at the
expense of other candidates. Every
question is viewed from the vantage
ground of how II affects their favorite
candidate. We are not finding fault
with personal devotion for the individ-
ual, but it is narrow ground for the
newspaper TO occupy. The question of
supreme moment is: What candidate
or set of candidates will best advance
the cause OF the republican party and
the welfare of the state? This Is
speaking from a party standpoint
Every careful observer of party action
will admit that we are working at cross
purposes. There is not a paper in the
state but favors the general policies
proclaimed by both Roosevelt and Taft
The control and regulation of corpora
tion, the conservation of our national
resources, there are some differences

GF Secretary of the Interior Ballinger
has the faculty of making lot Of bad
breaks. Just now, while he is being so
roundly roasted by his opponents on
the Alaskan coal matter and conser-
walton affairs, he has an effort to pose
as press censor. An order was issued
to the officials of the geological de-
partment forbidding them to give out
interviews. His tact must be minus
quantity.

F.P. WEYMOUTH KNEW
HOW To GIVE THE WATER
CONSUMERS STONY STARE

In Frank p. Weymouth, water
commissioner, Mayor Pratt has a
man who is not afraid to give the
sold shoulder to a delegation of
citizens seeking relief for water
shortage. Weymouth has the abil-
ity to cut off the compliments and
tell them that he can do nothing
for them, without lodging around
the bush. The mayor does not like
to be so plain about it, hence when
delegation calls on the mayor, his
usual reply is, We'll, l wish you
would take that up with Mr.. Wey-
mouth, he is the man."
The mayor tried this plan of
shifting his burden to the outspok-
en- Mr.. Weymouth when the COM
mittee of indignant southsiders
called and a member of the commit
tee aptly responded:
"To the dickens with Mr.. Wey-
mouth; you are the man We want
to talk to-" And talk to the mayor
they did.
There was a time when Frank P.
Weymouth was water commission
err for eight years at stretch. Then
the city began to grow too fast and
Mr.. Weymouth failed to grow with
it. The water plant was permit
ted to get from three to five years

behind the demands of the city and
1t has not caught up yet. When a
delegation from the north hill once
called on Weymouth, some years
ago, in a demand for better water
service, he replied:
Now if you don't like the way
the city of Spokane is furnishing
you with water you can cut if off;
the city will live without your
patronage"
After the city water system out
grew Frank P. Weymouth, 1t seems
that little Roadway was made un-
der succeeding water commission
ers, until A. Reuterdahl was put in
office a year ago. Reuterdahl did
not last long-he was too honest
an progressive for the job. Had
Reuterdahl been permitted to re-
main with the water improvements
that he, with the backing of the
city council put under way, the city
would have an ample supply of
water today instead of the famine
that is now confronting the city.
But it is the fate of the Pratt ad-
ministration that men who are cap
able of delivering the goods" are
not permitted to last long around
the city hail.
When the water betterments I'M
der way are completed the present
water pumping and storage facili-
ties of the Spokane system will be
more than doubled. These i'm
provements were started in suf-
ficient time last season to be COM
pleted and ready for use before
now, but under the FRAT system OF
doing business there were too many
bosses, too many interests to be
served and placated, and as re-
suit there is nothing done and no
relife in sight.
