REASONS FOR THANKS.

The Grand Forks Times has a SYM

Dakota should be thankful. Among
them is that of Secretary of State AL
fred Blaisdell. who expresses these
sensible sentiments:
North Dakota has cause this year
to be thankful for a rather "Off sea-
SON" 1t is a blessing in disguise
and means strict retrenchment in
business methods and much desired
economy on the part of both farmers
and business men,
North Dakota has been over-indul-
gent with her people and has reward
ed mediocre methods and systems of
the business man and farmer with
great prosperity and to such an eX-
tent that had the thrift and frugality
of our grandfathers been we'll kept
in mind, man. off seasons could have
been approached without causing any
apprehension.
We have suffered from too much
prosperity and naturally have been
prone to forget the old virtues of our
sturdy grandfathers with their con-
victions of strict economy and hon
esty which meant the prompt payment
OF bills and strict living within the
income actually earned even at the
expense of being often called penuri-

stamps" first used for the soldiers
relief funds in Boston in 1862. during
the Civil war After the war, this
method of raising money was discon-

Spain, Denmark, Norway, Russia.
Sweden and other European countries.
There are now several hundred diff

Stamps or seals were first used to

HILL AND HIS WORD.

In their second article on "Masters
of Finance George kibbe Turner
and John Moody, writing for Mcclure S
magazine, take up James }. Hill OF
St, Paul and his railroad enterprises.
Speaking of Mr.. Hills personality
and his methods of work, the authors
say:
lanes J. Hill is his railroad; for
thirty years he has been nothing else.
Night and day he works for it, with
the enthusiasm of a fanatic. He IS
tremendous worker-in a very Curl
GUS way--planning all the time how
he will extend and enlarge his road
and distribute it's great profits. and
always talking his plans aloud to any
listener-from the barber to the Wall
street magnate Those who know him
best believe that he can think sue
cessfully only when he is talking, and
talking to an auditor. And, day after
day. he goes down the line of his ac-
quaintances, telling them of his plans,
getting their opinion of them, chang
ing and improving them as he goes
along, and finally bringing them out
in an entirely different form from any
he has talked about. For this reason
his enemies have called him a liar.
He is really an inventor, inventing
and planning aloud. He is, in fact,
a very fortunate man. his enthusiasm
drives him to accomplish an enormous
amount of work with the greatest of
pleasure every day.
And this is how the grasshoppers
helped Mr.. Hill and his associates Sc
cure possession of their first rail
road line:
In the spring of 1877 they were
ready to take over the St. Paul &
Pacific. People still smiled at it in
St. Paul and wondered good deal
how Jim Hill had hypnotized bank
president like Stephens, into getting
him to put up the money. If it hadn't
been for the grasshoppers, it would
have been different. But. as it was,
no one could take it seriously. When
the syndicate came to pay its lawyers,
Bigelow, Flandran & Clark, it offered
them choice between $4,000 in
cash and 100000 in stock. They
took the cash, as anybody else in the
section would have done. This was a
mistake that cost them, principal and
interest to the present time, some
S15,OO0,OOO, all told. But they did not
know then, and could not know. NO
one, of course, could guess the thing
that was about to happen.
The spring of 1877 came in, and
with it the usual plague of grasshop-
pers. They grew and Increased tor
two months-swarms of little fellows
who could only crawl and jump a foot
or two high. Then, in the early sum-
mer. it came time for them to fly.
One day, without the slightest warn
ing they left the country-swarms
square miles wide. They never came
back again.
A few of the settlers had stayed on
the farms to make a fourth trial OF
the pest-ridden country. The grass
hoppers had eaten the young wheat,
but, like early frost, their eating had
merely driven back it's growth, given
it stronger roots, and really helped 1t.
That year saw the greatest wheat
crop for it's area ever grown in that
