The postoffice has a job ahead OF
it for May. During the month every
piece of mail, whether incoming OF
outgoing, must be classified, weighed
and counted. This will almost double
the work Of the Office and will delay
the delivery of mail to some extent
but we understand that it is neces.
sary for gathering information for the
department in relation to the postal
system throughout the country. We

1t is now claimed that the iron work

many dynamite outrages which have
been perpetrated throughout the Unit

some of the conspirators ought to
hang. There have been "frameups"
against unions before this, however,

No muckrakers are on my trail
To try and land me in the jail.
They don't hang round and stare and
cape
And twist my doings out Of shape.
When go out and buy some pills
They don't diagnose my ills.
And say that / have lived too fast,
And fake UP doin's of my past.
They do not come with leap and bound
Each time chance to turn around,
And pry into my private life,
And tell about my early strife
To win Dame Fortunes gladstone

In headlines you can read one mile.
I'm quite content just as I am,
As happy as the storied clam.
The wrestling match I have with Fate
Appeals to me. It's simply great.
I've heard that idleness Is crime.
So keep workin' all the time.
And so you see don't care
Because I'm not a millionaire.

Double Robbery.

Aberdeen, s. D., Nov. 21.-P. M.
Ringrose, q local coal dealer, was
held UP at s;1O o'clock at night as he
was returning home from the business
section, where he had been doing some
trading. He had both arms full Of
packages, when he was startled by a.
command to drop his packages and
hold up his hands, and found himself
looking into the muzzle of revolver.
The robber made him hand over his
money and then instructed him to GO
straight home. Ringrose started home,
and looking backward, found the high
wayman in the act of holding up an
other man. about 100 feet behind him.
Ringrose started across the street to
reach telephone, when the holdup
Iarttst yelled to him to stay on the
sidewalk and go on home, or get a
bullet, and Ringrose obeyed orders.
The other man has not reported the
robbery, and II is not known who he
Is. There is no clue to the identity
or the robber. The holdup was a
bold one, as 1t took place only three
blocks from the business center az
town, and the night was light and
many people were moving about.

FoUR-YEAR TERMS.

The Forum has urged for some years
that the terms Of office, both state
and county should be made four in
stead Of two years. A bill was intro
duced to that effect in the last legis-
lature but it was crowded out by 9TH
er matters. The Forum believes each
term should be made four years and
Office holders should not be eligible to
consecutive reelection.
The sentiment favoring longer terms
seems quite general. The Minneapolis
Journal Of Sunday had the following
editorial:
When Rhode Island recently gave
up electing state officers every year
Massachusetts was left as the sole
survivor Of the formerly considerable
list of states that choose governors
annually. Rhode Island joins the ma
Jority of the states by establishing
biennial elections. The two-year
term is now the minimum. But even
this is proving too short, and twenty
two states now elect their governor
Tor four-year terms and one, New
Jersey for three years. The tendency
to lengthen executive terms IS in the
line of progress. Two years was
formerly sufficient time to test the
effictency Of an administrator whose
duties We're mostly routine, but they
are all too short when an executive has
many and complicated questions to
consider, and when among his other
duties Is the creation of body of pub
lie opinion favorable to any innoya-
tons ne may want to make in admin
lstrative details Four years is long
enough FOR an executive to develop
his governing capacity. If he has on
ly mediocre ability. he can be dropped
without much cutlery from the poH-
ucians he has about him, while. IL he
has exceptional ability, a second term
OF -FOUR years should satisfy the am
p1tion and give scope for the plans OF
any man,
The two-year term with the non
uiar primary really involves two cam
paigns. Our public officials spend
too much time and energy getting in
With this reform in the states IT
would be a good thing IL a similar
lengthening Of the terms of the pres
ident to six years and of representa-
tives to four years could be brought
about in the nation.

ELEVATOR men TO
FOSTER DAIRYING
GRAIN BUYERS OF NORTH oAKo.
Ia COUNSEL FARMERS TO
ABANDON ONE CROP
IDEA.

Bismarck. N. D.. Nov. 21.-CDmmis-
sioner Of Agricultural w. c. Gifbreath,
in an interview Saturday said:
Nothing would appear at first
thought to be more reasonable than TO
suppose that If one class of people
more than another would be finan-
cially interested in maintaining the
one-crop idea of wheat raising in
North Dakota. rnat mas optai4ed for
these many years, it would be the
great wheat-buying companies repre-
scented throughout the state by the
long strings of elevators situated upon
our different railway lines, with head
quarters, either at the head of the
lakes or in the twin cities.
Yet, as a matter Of truth, nothing
is further from the fact. as will be
readily appreciated, said the COM
missioner, from a perusal of che fol-
lowing circular letter, which I have re-
ceived from p. L. Howe, president OF
one of these great elevator companies.
and which has been sent out to his
agents in this state This letter ex-
plains itself"
The letter from Mr. Howe reads as
follows:
we note here at the general office
with great deal Of satisfaction copy
OF your letter of Nov. z. addressed to
r. F. Flint, dairy commissioner at Bis-
marck If your farmers there are thor
oughly In earnest in the matter of
creamery and are willing to devote
enough time and work in the care OF
their dairy cows, prepare satisfactorily
for their care during the summer and
especially during the winter and realize
fully what it means to turn over from
the wheat-raising proposition to the
dairying proposition. you viii have ac-
complished one Of the greatest things
ever done for the community IN the
vicinity Of Eckman, N. d.
This. in connection with the SAM
pies of alfalfa that you sent to this
office last year. makes me think that
dairying is particularly adapted to
that vicinity because If you can raise
alfalfa such as that sample, dairying
will make the vicinity Of Eckman rich,

means that successful men in the
farming line will be procured and
their expenses paid for the purpose
of relating to the farmers Of North
Dakota their experience and going into
the fields and barns. etc, and explain
ing how the thing can be better done.
Il believe that the farmers of
North Dakota are ready for just such
a consultation and great good can
come out Of the discussion OF this
great problem now confronting the
farmer of North Dakota. 1t is some
thing that will not solve itself. 1t
must be recognized and treated with
scientifically and the farmer must
realize that 1t is now up to him
that the one crop idea (wheat) no
longer Is safe in North Dakota. He
must have other things to supplement
this crop, something that will give
him income, even il the wheat crop
is failure or partial failure.
"Dairying is one of the best things
there is If the proper preparation is
made beforehand so that he can take
care OF his cows when he gets them.
This gives him cash at the first Or
every month the year round. / think
most Of the farmers in North Dakota
appreciate now what that means.
Suppose you had farmer within
three or four or five miles of hickman
who was today getting cream check
amounting to 800 per month every
month in the year. Don't YOU suppose
that that man would be on easy
street? Well. that's nothing uncom-
mon at all in northern iowa. where
the writer grew UP on farm. and l
know whereof speak.
Put these things, up to the farmers
make them realize what ii means to
them and their families and their
future success generally. Make the
merchants and bankers realize what ii
means to them and think you will
find that dairying will take root and
flourish right at the station of Eek
man and Il will give you splendid
name II Eckman can be the, first iii
that section OF the state to success
