is THIS A GREAT LEADER?

Governor Harmon let the Langdon
tax bill become a law without his
signature. He took the same course
with the Smith-Alsdorf bill limiting
the rate of taxation in Ohio. He al
so refused either to sign or to veto
the bill establishing a municipal court
in Cleveland. More than twenty 9th
er measures were disposed of in the
same non-committal way.
Is this leadership? Is it strong,
frank, masterful? Is it the course of
a man worthy to be spoken of as a
great national figure in the public
life of the country? Is it part
which a real leader could bring him
self to play? Cat power and inspira
ton come from such a course? Is
Judson Harmon possibility as a
master in national affairs, or has he
already attained station too high
for. him to meet it's responsibilities
and its demands for leadership

truest friendships are formed the
closest studies of human nature pro-

that is as true of the kingdom of earth

SAYS IRWIN is RESIDENT.

Grafton, n. D., June 16.--To The Fo.
rum: notice that an effort is being
made to attac the right Of Senator J.
j. Irwin to continue as one of the state
senators, on the ground that he Is not
now resident Of the state.
The facts appear to be that a year
ago Mr.. Irwin sold out his business al
Park River and rented his store. Mrs.
Irwin took the daughter and went to
Ashland, Ore. in hopes that the cli-
mate would improve her health. She
bouSt q house out there with her own
money and Mr.. irwin went to Ashland
on March % and stayed there until
July rs. when he came back and took
up his residence again at Park River
and has made that city his headquar-
tiers while he has been selling groceries
for a hicago house. Mr.. Irwin an
nounces that he Is still a resident of
the state and a citizen of Par River
and under the law II would seem as If
he had a right to select what place to
be his home.
In this connection attention might
be called 10 the case Of John Wallin of
Minot who went west about the same
time MI 1IW4l uIu anu ICoh AiS A3llLIIS
along with him. He bought home
himself and his farm near Minot was
rented and so he came back to see
about getting his crop off and he has
announced that he was only here tenn
porarily and would return west as soon
as he could secure his crop interest.
There seems to be a difference in the
two cases and for some reason action
has only been started on the weaker Of
the two. John Johnson.

NATTER IS Still
VERY MUCH in AIR
ORGANIZATION OF BURKE AND
RENVILLE COUNTIES STILL
INDEFINITELY DELAYED.

Minot, N. D.. June 17.-Although it
was given out upon the best of author
ity that the new counties Of Burke and
Renville would be formally organized
yesterday and although all arrange
ments were made to certify the neces-
sary Instruments in tn matter to the
secretary Of state and in due time to
Governor Burke, upon the authority
that Judge Burr had dissolved the or
der restraining County Auditor Larson
from certifying the supreme courts de-
cfsion, the counties of Burke and Rem
vile are still unorganized and the in
d1cations at present are that there will
be indefinite delays and that the
whole matter may be held up for some
time. All Of this despite the fact that
the Kenmare people yesterday an
nounced that they had thrown I'D the
sponge and considered themselves
beaten in their latest contention.
The only instrument from Judge
Burr of record with the clerk of court
Of Ward county is an order overruling
the demurrer of the defendants in the
case. This was recorded yesterday.
1t means substantially that the re-
straining order still obtains and that
there is no immediate prospect of the
new counties being organized until a
copy OF the courts ruling dissolving
the restraining order is received.

Farm HELD Lacking.

jamestown, N. D., June 17.-E. O.
Schilling Of Marion is among those in
attendance in district court as juror
and reports need Of more moisture on
his farm. just inside the county line
east of Montpelier Like many other
farmers Mr.. Schilling says the prob
lem of farm help is becoming serious
and farmers are not doing any more
to enlarge their herds than is absolute-
ly necessary. Instead they are driv-
ing more horses in each team, buying
larger machinery and doing their own
work. Farmers that few years ago
had large herds OF cattle, have reduced
them and do not see any prospect Of
increasing them until conditions are
improved and labor can be secured
upon more reasonable terms. All of
which may be advanced as an argu-
rnent showing the unusual prosper
| ity OF the farmers Of the state. La
Dor at $40 a month is hard TO Sc
cure and competent labor is exceed
ingly scarce at any price. Mr.. Schil-
ling and son are farming a section
of land, summer following a third Of
| it each year. and drive five and six
horse teams to all their farm machin-
cry. They have discovered that an
additional horse and pillow lays that
cut two inches wider than usual, or
two feet added to the drill they are
saving money and reducing the cost
per acre.
