THE RIGHT SPIRIT

Walsh County Herald: At the head
of our editorial columns this week
we publish the republican ticket that
was selected by the voters at the re-
cent primary election. Every repub-
lican in North Dakota had an oppor-
tunity to express his wish as 70 who
should be the nominees of the party.
Majority rule is a cardinal principle
Of representative government and the
majority of the republicans OF North
Dakota have placed their stamp of APP
prevail on the ticket nominated. The
republican who fails to give his loyal
and hearty support to the ticket is
not a believer in the primary election
law or the rule OF the majority.

THE DEMOCRATIC HOPE

The democrats of this state are not
without resourcefulness and shrewd-
ness. Conscious of the anti-third term
feeling, and knowing that a campaign
cannot be made with the cry that
lone good term deserves another" in
asmuch as the governor has already
been honored with a second term, al
though running as democrat in re.
publican state, the ambitious demo-
Gratis, office seekers and office holders
of the democratic faith DESTROYS of
remaining in office have started a
presidential boom for Governor Burke.
The object of the boom is, naturally,
to base an argument for the third
term for the governor on state pride
and bring over a number of republic
can votes to the democratic standard.
The object behind the scenes is to re-
tain the patronage of the state to the
democratic party.
There is no objection on the part
of the republicans of the state to the
concession that the governor is demo-
cratic presidential timber. But we
take it that when the democrats nom-
mate candidate for president they
will look beyond North DakOta's four
electoral votes. The presidential nom
nation. with either party, is to some
extent a matter Of geographical adj
vantage and an appeal to the state
pride of a doubtful state which has a
vote. North Dakota is
not a doubtful state. It has a small
number of votes The Endorsement of
the governor by his own state is com.
plmentary and ought to be pleasing
10 him. But as an Endorsement with
the belief that it will avail in the
democratic nomination, it is hardly to
be considered seriously. :,
But if it would serve to bring 7nough
re publican votes to the democratic
party to offset those republicans who
will vote their own party ticket next

Some Of Its Curious Old Rules and
Regulations.
The first United States mint at Phil
adelphia was naturally very unpre-
tentious affair. The material for coin
age was secured from abroad. There
was found mucl, difficulty to get any
one of experience to operate the COLI
age. and the salary list Of the first
mint employees was: David Ritten-
house. director. $1,000 per annum;
Tristram Dalton. treasurer. $1,000;
Henry Voight. coiner. $500: Isaac
Hugh. clerk. $31o
The regular coinage Of copper began
in 1903. silver in 1894 and gold in 1895.
The following curious extracts are
taken from the mint rules and regula-
tons Of the early days:
The allowance under the name of
drink money is hereafter to be discon-
tinucd
THE operations Of tho mint through
out the year are to commence ut

| thing was deemed worthy of a trial.
Accordingly, law. were passed making
it an offense for any individual, under
any circumstances, to partake of in
in the state of Texas. Orderly peo-
pie, some of whom did, and some of
whom did not drink liquor, helped the
movement along. Railroad men lent
their aid to the enforcement OF the
law, and so well does the law work
that to all intents and purposes the
custom OF drinking on Texas trains
has been abolished. With the bottle
has gone the disorder that was pro-
NOTED by the contents of the bottle.
In this section we have not quite
the same conditions. Cowboys in this
particular part of the country are not
in the habit Of shooting up towns or
trains, but the use of the bottle on
the train is nuisance which needs
TO be suppressed, just the same. The
evil is most noticeable in the smoking
cars. Smoking is very properly pro-
hbited in the ordinary day coaches,
but the smoking car under the pre-
vailing conditions is anything but an
inviting place. The quiet person who
enters one to enjoy a cigar and
paper or magazine in peace and quiet
ness. is apt to find the air loaded with
every sort of stencil from that of sour
beer to undigested whiskey. Bottles
are in rapid circulation, and the
stranger is invited to drink. If he
refuses it may be at the risk of
fight Fights are not infrequent. Bois-
ferrous men make trouble for passen-
gers and trainmen alike. Tipsy men

In these days Of almost pre-eminent

rather amusing to read the opinions of
former generations concerning Teu-

There is diverting anccdote Of an
Italian who was convinced that no

THE REPUBLICAN, TICKET

After referring to the success Of
each faction of the republican party
of the state in nominating candidates
for senatorial, congressional and state
honors, the Valley City Times-Record
has the following sensible advice:
1.-The next thing to do is to carry
into effect the will of the republican
electors as registered in the primar-
les. The fight is ended for this year
Or should be. Two months before
the primary election, the Times-Rec.
ord pledged its support to the ticket
which should be chosen at the pri.
mary election and we propose to de.
liver the goods. There will be no
picking OF favorites and no half heart
ed support of part OF the ticket. The
principle of majority rule and the
ethics of party regularity should ap-
peal to all republicans and dictate a
hearty and sincere support of the
entire ticket. This position is invul-
nerable and conforms strictly to our
scheme Of government If there is
moral obligation resting upon mem.
oers of the state legislature to sup
port for United States senators the
who receive the highest
'ote in the primaries, the same moral
is binding upon every re.
publican in the state to support every
candidate Of his party who was nom-
mated in that election. 1t is simple
natter of good faith, honesty and !
'arty allegiance.

LIQUOR ON TRAINS

The Grand Forks Herald touches or
a subject that has appealed to gooC
many travellers in an editorial on the
frequent nuisance Of drunkenness or
trains, with the accompanying bottle
Legislation on the subject is suggest
ed, and just how to legislate to reach
the evil complained of is not alto
gether clear, unless it be made an
offense against the laws to drink pub
train through the state of North
Dakota. And this might not at all
sons might carry bottles and drink
surreptitiously, under seats, in dark
corners, or might even hold their
heads out of the window and drink
and claim that they had drunk out
side of the train and not in it,
The abuse of liquor, of course, is
the nuisance. There might be times
thing, in cases of illness and emer-
gency. There might be accidents in
which stimulation might be highly
valuable. 1t is another one of those
matters where legislation is not alto
gether easy to frame. We believe
there Is a law now by which train
officials are peace officers, and have
authority to check any disturbance
that may arise. Why could not this
law be enforced, or amplified if ne
cessary, to reach the evil complained
of?
The trouble with much of our sump-
tuary legislation is that the very i'm.
possibility Ct reaching the evil sought
to be checked results in a hundred
and one means of beating" the law,
and a consequent lessening of respect
for other laws. But the Herald's COM
ment is timely one, when it is said:
Cannot the legislature of North Da-
kota, and the legislatures Of other
states. too, for that matter, follow
the example of the legislature OF Tex
as and put stop to the use OF in
toxicants On trains? 1t may be news
to a good many people that it is
crime in Texas to take a drink Of
liquor on a train, but that is the fact
And not only Is it crime according
to the statutes, but the statute is
strictly enforced. The law was passed
some years ago, not as temperance
measure, but as a measure of public
safety. Texas is a great cattle rails
ing state, and on the trains are large
numbers of cowboys, many of them
returning to the ranges after ship
ping stock Given bunch of Texas
cowboys and liberal number OF bot :
ties, and one does not need to draw
very feely on his imagination to fore
see lively times. Because Of this sort
of combination fights on the trains
were frequent, windows were smash
ed, seats broken, and passengers not
in any way interested in The fracas
ran the risk OF having their anatomy /
punctured by flying bullets. It was
neither possible nor desirable to keep
cowboys off the trains. but it was be-
lieved possible to put a stop to drink
