The salary of a general in the Nicar-

day. That" says the Waterloo Re-
porter, is one of the disagreeable
results OF having an army entirely
composed of generals but the old law
of supply and demand always insists
upon being respected. In an army
where the generals get 20 cents day
it must be a gay life to be one of the
privates.'

Many Reasons are Advanced.

Reasons for the increased cost of
living are Icing advanced by the

merely amusing, but few cover more
than some little phase of the subject.
Here are some of them:
Great increase in population, max

THE suFFRAeETTEs IN POETRY

The mo taxation without repre-

American Revolutionary fathers, is an
incentive to the English suffragettes
during the trying time which they are
having with the policemen of London.
Here is a Kiplingesque stanza, very
popular among surging crowds in the
vicinity of the houses Of parliament.
we went UP to Saint Stephens with
petitions year by year;
Get out.' the politicians cried, I'VE
want no women here."
NJ P.'s behind the ratings stood and
laughed to see the fun.
And bold policemen knocked US down

FOR right OF Way

Devils Lake, N. D., June 16.-1t is
said that the 500 railroad is experience
ing some difficulty in getting right OF
way in and near the city. Exorbitant
and prohibitive prices are being ask
ed for right of way and the matter
of pushing work is being greatly re-
tarded on this account.
The right OF way agent of the Great
Northern says that the highest price
paid for right of way on the line from
Fargo to Surrey was 500 per acre
which was for Red River valley
land where the damage was great. The
500 is being asked as high as $500
and in some cases as high as $500 per
acre for right of way across farms
near Devils Lake. The right Of way
agents are becoming discouraged with
the pros poets of making amiciable set.

SCOTT IS CANDl,
DATE FOR AUDITOR
IN GRAND FORKS CO.

Grand Forks, N. D., June 16.-Judge
Templeton has decided that the name
of John w. Scott Of Gilby goes on
the republican ballot as candidate Tor
county auditor. Nelson's petition IS
thrown out because the electors who
signed the petition failed to give their
street numbers, as the law required.
The following is the memorandum
of the decision which will be interest
ing to the state generally.
.In nv opinion REALTORS petition
must be granted. l think 1t clear
that the petition of Mr.. Nelson is In
sufficient. hold against relator upon
every proposition advanced except as
to the sufficiency of Mr.. Nelson's
petition. The primary election law
provides that every elector signing
nomination paper shall add his resi-
dence with the street number, If any,
and the date of signing. I think this
language of the statute is plainly
mandatory. The word residence as
used in this statute must mean the
city, village or township where the
elector resides. 1t is admitted that
nearly all the electors who signed
Mr.. Nelson's petition failed to add the
name of the city, village or township
where they reside. For this reason
the petition must be held to be a
nullity. This question seems to me to
be strictly analogous to that OF recelv-
ing votes in certain cities where reg
istration is required and no registrar
ton is had and the qualifications OF
voters are not sworn to. The law
relating to registration in cities is no
more plain, direct and peremptory IN
its language, than in the statute re-
curing one who signs a nomination
paper to add his residence. Our SUI
preme court in the recent cases in
volving the new counties of Renville
and Burke held, that at the last gen.
eral election in Kenmare the entire
poll should be thrown out simply be-
cause the election officers had failed
to prepare registry list. The failure
there was principally that of the
election officers. Here, in the case at
bar, the failure is that of the electors
themselves to obey the plain language
of the statute. 1t seems to me that
