WELL KNOWN RAMSEY COUNTY
FARMER RESIDING NEAR
CRAZY BROUGHT HERE,

Hans Rustom, prominent farmer
residing near Crazy and well known in
this city, was injured in runaway
near Keith this afternoon and is now
in the local hospital.
The train crew on o. noticed a
man lying in the ditch, his horse and
buggy being on the other side Of tho
track. The train was backed up to
the spot and the man taken aboard,
where he was examined by physician.
He was unconscious and is still in that
condition at the hospital. Though no
details can be secured it is understood
that the horse ran away with Mr.. Rus
tom some time before the train came
along and that at tho crossing the man
was thrown out.
No bones are broken, according TO
the first examination, but internal in
juries are expected. -

The Mandan News thinks Hanna can
be elected governor if he can disprove
his connections with the old Mckenzie
gang. Why, bless you, brother, you
must have been sleeping the past six
years. "Honest John Burke" the pol

gang to route that many years ago and
the great "Honest John' has complete
" cleaned it off the map since that
time. Every state institution is now
controlled by the Burke -Bickford- Stock

to Hanna to disprove his connections
with the cd thrice beaten political fig.

DEVILS LAKE MAY GET EXTEN.
SION OF MILWAUKEE FROM
SARGENT TO RAMSEY.

In discussing the railroad building in
North Dakota correspondent to the
Fargo Courier-Nee,ws has the following
to say regarding a proposed line to
Devils Lake:
Another proposed new line Of inter
est to the citizens Of Ransom county
is the extension Of the Milwaukee road
from Harlem in Sargent county, north
to Devils Lake. TIL cline will pass
through Lisbon and Fort Ransom to
Valley City and thence north to Devils
Lake. Some grading on this line was
done several years ago, but for some
reason the project was abandoned. It
has been revived several times since
then but no more actual construction
work was ever done. Whether the
Milwaukee really intends to build the
road this time remains to be seen. Its
principal effect on Ransom county
would be to give Fort Ransom its long
expected railway connection and to
bring the market closer to the farmers
Of the northwestern part Of the cour.

There Hhas been some talk lately
through the newspapers Of the probab-
ility Of 81. H. Aaker entering the race
for governor again this year. This is a
free country, Of course, and he can run
if he wants, but in the light Of his re.
cent betrayal Of the Republican party
and the confidence Of the people who
voted for him two years ago we very
much doubt whether he will ever know
whether he has been running. If such
men as he and Andy Miller can betray
their party on the even Of election, af-
ter pledging their support to the Re-
publican nominees, and then gain rec
ignition two years after, Lord help the
state if they can get their hands at her
throat. Traitors, whether political or
otherwise, should be stunned as the
devil-one is as bad as the other and
fashioned in the same mould.-Willow

EDDY COUNTY FARMER GETS BIG
YIELD ON TWENTY-EIGHT-
YEAR-OLD LAND.

New Rockford, N. D., Nov. IA. D.
Homlinson reports a return from
twenty-five acre piece Of ground on his
farm two miles north Of this city that
is an indication of what Eddy county
soil really can do when it unlinbers
right. The twenty-five acres was the
first ground he broke away back in
1888, and, with the exception of being
seeded to timothy for a few years, it
has been continually cropped to wheat,
oats and flax ever since. The twenty
five acres of ground returned him $50
bushels of No. l flax, or very nearly
twenty-nne bushels per acre, which, at
the price Of fax this year, nets him
better than 1854 per acre. This return
for one year on land selling at from
$40 to $50 per acre shows the great
possibilities for making money out Of
Eddy county land.

INDEPENDENT, REPUBLICAN, OR
WHAT9

Mr.. Aaker Of the Fargo Business Col
lege, who was candidate for governor
on the progressive-R ticket
two years ago, is again a candidate for
the same office. In reply to criticisms
that two years ago when he failed in
getting the nomination at the primary
that he then supported Governor Burke,
he gives what to him seem good reasons
and possibly they are good and sufic-
lent reasons
But Mr.. Aaker or any other man can
not at one and the same time act as
an independent and partisan. There
is no argument possible as to the right
of voter being one or the other
There is no question that there are
cases in which the voter is right in alb
solving his allegiance to party ties and
voting for candidate on the other
ticket, from conscientious views.
1t is not possible for a Republican
to vote for Democrat or vice versa,
because that act takes him out of tbs
party lines. 1t makes the actor either
an Independent or a Democrat. "By
their fruits ye shall know Them - There
is no getting away from this logic. Ii
a man represents himself as Republi.
can but works for the success Of the
other party then he becomes simply a
traitor. If, however, he openly spea-
rates himself from the Republican par
ty as such, and takes his choice of
candidates on all tickets, he is then an
Independent, which in itself implies
no dishonor.
But for obvious reasons an Independ.
ent has no claim on either party for
political preference, while the traitor
is abhorred by everybody. Mr.. Aaker
did not vote for Governor Burke, be-
cause Mr.. Aaker is Republican, but
because he differed with the Republican
party Of the state as to it's candidate
for governor. He had the right to diff
fer, but when he did differ he was out
of the ranks.-Pembina Pioneer Elk.

COFFEE PRICES SOAR.

Price Of Coffee Went Up Cents Nov.
/, All Over Country, Which Was
Pronounced Sudden Jump.
Coffee prices went soaring Nov. /,
and advanced cents on the pound.
Cofees selling for 20 cents until re-
Gently are now selling for Is cents,
and those that retailed for Is cents
are now selling at 80 cents. This, with
makes the retail price Of coffee 10
cents more than it was a year ago.
Coffee went up 2 cents on the pound
three days before Nov. l, at which
time it was understood that a big
rooster in New York bought 100000
bags, which was some indication that
the price was going to advance more
within short while. Sure enough
the price went up 3 cents more just
three days later.
It is believed that it is due to cor.
nering Of the market by Brazilian cot
fee dealers who have control of the 10
cal markets in Rio Janerio, the leading
city in that country.

THE VICTORY.

The World believes that its readers
will pardon reference to the victory
won by the adherents of Municipal
Ownership Monday and display of
qualification the result causes this pa
per. A campaign for Municipal Owner
ship has always been, in any city
where the measure has been adopted,
one of education, but never has there
been such difficult campaign as that
conducted here. Alone and with but
the assistance afforded by the light
committee of the council, The World
has for the past six weeks been present.
ing the facts and figures regarding Mu-
nicipal Ownership and its effect on the
situation in Devils Lake before the
people. Up to Saturday night not even
an argument against the measure was
advanced by the other papers so that
we were deprived of having arguments
that were being used by Mr.. Kerlin to
answer until the last moment.
The result of the election leaves no
question that the men who did vote
favorably were the taxpayers and light
users, many of whom had perhaps never
expressed an opinion in public on the
question but who had closely followed
the arguments we had advanced and
had seen their application to the local
situation.
A victory such as yesterdays and
won under those conditions is naturally
victory for the paper that supported it
as strongly as did The World and we
feel pardonably elated. kilograms and
telephone messages were received last
evening from number Of newspapers
Of the state who had followed the fight
congratulating us on the outcome and
number Of personal letters along the
same line were in the mail this noon.
The World feels that it has a right
to share with the people in the victory
and to represent itself more strongly
than ever as paper that has stood
and will stand for what is best 70,

BEWARE OF TAINTED MONEY.

An eastern banker scratched his ear
while counting pile of paper money
and died of blood poisoning. The mon
ey was tainted; it had evil germs, and
they got busy on the scratch. The
moral is plain, so plain that the people,
or at least ninety-nine per cent of
them, will refrain from counting piles
Of money.
Of course they might boil the money
or wear gloves, or refrain from a rem
iniscent scratching scratching of the
car while counting, being content with
the scratching that they had to do to
get it. But the far easier way, and
the che most will adopt, is simply not
to get it.
Os course, if pile of bills of reas-
enable denomination should run a man
down and jump on him before he could
seek refuge in the Sherman law, then
he might have to submit to their Gus
tody. But that is so seldom the case
as to not call for serious consideration.
1t is said that hundreds of deaths
have been caused by just such care
lessness as this banker showed. Pos
slbly, in population of 90,OOO,0OO peo-
pie there may be that many persons
who for some reason beyond their
free will have to count piles Of mon
ey, usually the aggregate of other peo-
lle's savings.
These are the soldiers wn, offer
their lives on their country's altar at
so much per offer. They are of their
country's heroes and get hero IS re-
ward, which is nice newspaper notice
after they die and a eulogy to the
school children.
The few, very few, who sometimes
have a bunch of real money of their
own, do not count it, nor handle it;
they let one of these heroes do that
and use check book in self protec.
ton. It is a fact that those who have
the most wealth use the least money
1t is a comfort to know, therefore
that these, our really great men, oui
saviors and our masters, are really ii
no danger from this new germ menace
It is useless to send them poisoned
money, because it would only catch 8

AS for the rest of us, the ninety and

than the passing curiosity which at
