The world Is ever in debt to those

again how often it recurs that men

they may attain to high positions,

Perhaps they were too content to- &C

1t has been said that. Amer ca

Our own state-North Dakota-is a
country of opportunity, not only for
the capitalist but also for industri-

productive acres yet untouched by

ample tracts where SO many fan1i-
lies could find healthy occupations
and good homes. Where they
might raise crops of wheat, fax and
potatoes or go into dairying. Then

may be raised on a moderate scale.

SERMON ENJOYED,

The illustrated sermon delivered
Sunday evening by Rev. Charles
Willis Harris at the Presbyterian
church on "A Study of Faces" was
thoroughly enjoyed by the large con-
gregation in attendance. The illus

occasional Sunday evenings are by
no means public entertainments. hut
are strong gospel talks, appealing to
the spiritual sense and intelligence
of the hearers. They are becoming
more and more popular.

COUNCIL HOLDS BUSY SESSION
Adopts Resolution FaOoring City Owned Water
and Light Plant, Introduced by So
cialist Councilman Tickle.

AT the regular meeting of the City
Council. Monday night, several very
important resolutions were passed.
Council Nearman from the Fifth
Ward introduced a resolution re-
questing the Board of Affairs to in
vestigate the Loan Companies and re-
woke their licenses as these loan
sharks were taking advantage of the
poverty and ignorance of the people
and charging them extortionate in
terest on small loans, the rate ranging
from 100 per cent to 600 per cent.
This was very important resolution
and was unanimously adopted. 1t is
now up to the Board of Affairs to act
upon it.
Mr.. Vickers introduced a resolution
in regard to the proposed City Code,
that was adopted. There was some
thing very peculiar about this codifi-
cation ordinance. It seems that the
Board of Affairs had passed on the
proposed Code and had recommend it
to Council but Council refused to open
it's mouth and shut its eyes and swal-
lowed those 500 pages of legal dope
without Investigation. when the Code
Commission found out the Council was
going to investigate their work they
claimed the Code was not yet COM
plete and there was some amendments
they wanted to add. and refused to
turn the matter over to the Council
committees.
Evidently there is a "Nigger in the
Wood Pile" some where. If the Code
was not complete how could the Board
of Affairs have reported it favorable
to the Council? And. after being re-
ported to the Council who had the
right to take it away? These are
some things that Councilman Vickers
wanted to know
The following resolution was intro
duced by Socialist Councilman from
the Third Ward, T. L. Tickle. and
adopted

Woman Holds Weapon

The Turks once conquered a German
town, and while they were marching
up one Of it's narrow streets, some
young women threw from window
a dozen or more beehives among them.
The bees did, with their little stilgs,
what the German soldiers could not do
threw them into such confusion that
they were easily put to flight. The
Turks knew how to fight men, but not

that the enemies of labor fear most of

A LAST WORD
By Ex-City Official

The child is born, his name is
sam, and nobody cares Il
The long deferred thing has been
consummated and the bargain and
sale carried out according to the
wishes of Jim HoIey-and-we were
almost saying, Friday BedelI, but
Friday has no say in the matter, he
simply cookooes, by saying yes to
every proposition offered or suggest
cd by Big jim. Friday is poor,
weak nondescriDt, whose head is
hollow-a void surrounded by bone
and hair, SO empty in fact, that he
has to stuff his ears when the wind
blows to keep his head from whistl-
ing like L siren.
The incoming and outgoing-the
stately stepping OF this little beetle
browcd brat, sounds like the Tipping
OF tomtit on dry beef hide; and,
as from his vote-directed by Jim
llolley, he has about as much in
Nuence in the moulding OF public
sentiment, as the rain drops patter-
lng on the roof of a sheep shed have
on Tie regulation of celestial affairs.
The re-apDointment Of AdulIerous
Judas GULL, as Chief OF Police, was
pulled off, just as anticipated. The
logic of the situation is that Jim

In the Council Chambers last Thurs
Gay night and shook the plum tree
Board Member Price being absent
for good reasons known only to the
new combination, better known as
three of a kind" Mr. Price was
unable to gather any OF the politi-
cal plumbs to distribute among his
faithful henchmen.
When Mr.. Price got wise to the
game the political plum trust had
been formed by the Holley, Petty, Be-
dell Co. and the plum market was
cornered as the Three Of 4 Kind
had monopoly on every thing in
sight, and the plums were dealt out
by Holly and Petty to their faithful
ward heelers, regardless OF the fact
that there was another member OF
the Board to be considered, but this
demonstrates the fact that three
i\naVes can always put it over
lone Jack While this caucus was
3eld Thursday night and all appoint
nlents made Mr.. Price attempted to
call his opponents hand at the regu-
lar meeting of the Board, Saturday,
but he found he had been "co1d
decked' and that a lone Jack was
helpless when his opponets held
three knaves, SO Holley and Petty
ralted i'll the Jack Pot and Mr.. Price
was left alone in the cold and cruel
world; a drift weed on the uncertain
political seas; unable to reward
those who had come to his rescue
in the past. Set adrift in a ship

unrewarded office seekers; what a
