WE'RE NOT DOING OUR BEST
u We Were, We Would Not Have to
Die In Order to Reach
Heaven.

How mankind defers from day to
day the best 1t can do and the most
beautiful things 1t can enjoy, said H.
w. Mabie most truthfully. II does
seem that many good people are put
ting on real enjoyment until they sci
to Heaven. never thinking that that Is
very slow and risky way of getting
there. Some people think that getting
into Heaven is going to make a great
change, when the fact Is the ascent
will be so gradual as to make little
difference. The Bible Is full Of this
idea.
The doctrine that an old crusty. sell
nsh, deceitful, neighbor-hating man
will turn into an angel at the pearly
gates Is not scriptural, and 1t does not
stand to reason. No. sir; . man gets
to Heaven because he belongs there;
because he has made the best OF life,
has done the kindest things, helped
the weak. filled his days with cheer.
good viii and good works. and decked
HIS life with the beatitudes of his Mas
ter.
We are not doing It so wei as we
might, as Mr.. Mabie suggests. No
one does his best No one enjoys the
most beautiful things. II we did. We
would not have to die to get to heav-
en-. We would then be doing our part

Ten applications for license to

Thirty-eight of the forty-eight max

The adjourned meeting last night
was short but one of the most in

been announced that no matter how

Does Not Annul Law,

Bad grammar nor improper punctua-
ton cannot defeat the clear intention
Of the legislature, according to an
opinion handed down by Chief Justice
Start of the Minnesota supreme bench
UNFOLDING the law compelling fourth
class cities and all villages of the
state to contribute 10 per cent OF
money collected from liquor licenses
to the road and bridge fund of the
county. The case is that of the coun-
ty of Sibley against the village of Glib
bon.
The clause telling what could be
done with the villages share of the
proceeds of the tax should have been
written following a declaration OF
what each village could do with the
80 per cent of the liquor license
The district court held that village
declaration of what could be done with
the 10 per cent, the county's share.
The district tcourt held that village
authorities could spend the license
money as they desired, for schools,
roads, etc, because of the improper
punctuation of the wording of the act
Judge Start says it was the intention
that the money go into the county
treasury and there it must go.

SAVED A LAD
FROM DROWNING
C, v. KENNEDY, THE HEAD OF
THE A. c. FARM, SAVED SMALL
LAD FROM DROWNING - BOY
WAS CAUGHT UNDER RAFT IN
THE shEEP POND.

A small boy by the name Of Rae
narrowly escaped death last week
while swimming in the sheep pond at
the A. C.
The little Rae lad IN company with
some companions went to the sheep
pond just north of the A. c. farmhouse
where they proceeded to strip for a
swim. The pond is about fourteen feet
deep in the middle AMI the lads fioated
a big raft out into the center OF the
pool of water
In the midst of the fun the Rae
boy fell from the raft and in coming
up he arose under the raft and was
not able to reach the surface of the
water Several of his companions
could see his figure under the timbers
but were too scared to pull him out.
The next time the lad came up he
missed the raft, but was so full Of
water that he could not think for him
self and went down again. The other
boys in the party yelled and c. ".
Kennedy, the head of the A. c. farm
hurried to the scene OF the swimming

needy was in the water and was pulling
the boy out when ne reached the sur

The boy was put through the first
aid to the drowning and he was soon
restored to consciousness. It is

ance of Mr.. Kennedy.

NAME OF DEAD Man
IDENTIFICATION FULLY EsTA5-
LlsHED TODAY AND MYSTERY.
is ENDED-Wks A RESIDENT
OF AReUsvILLE,' N. D., WHERE
HE WAS KNOWN AS OLD CHRIS.

Christian Anton Hanson. is the name
Of the man whose dead body was
found few miles north of Moorhead
last Thursday by Steve Berrigan and
A. j. Williams.
The body was ideptified by c. c. So
berg Of Argusville, N. D., who viewed
the remains at the undertaking rooms
of A. j. Wright & Son. Mr.. Soberg
was accompanied by A. F. Anderson
also of Argusville, and he said that
the body was that of "Old Chris" as
deceased was known at Argusville and
vicinity. Mr.. Soberg said he read the
report of the finding of the body In
The Forum and the reference TO the
initials, S. A. H., on the mans right
hand. He did not read the paper until
late on Saturday and recalling later
that Hanson had oeen at his farm
during Monday night a week ago,
sleeping there and taking his break
fast the following morning, he and
members of his family thought the
body might be that of Mr.. Hanson
and concluded to come to Moorhead
and see the body for himself.
Hanson has been known about Ar
gusville for more than fifteen years.
Prior to five years ago he worked as
section hand on the Great Northern
railroad During the last two or three
years he has been more or less Grip
pied up and has been addicted to drink
He was an itinerant in his habits and
seemed to make the rounds of the
country about Argusville picking up
his meals wherever he could at diff
ferent farms and working occasion
ally. When found on the roadside
last Thursday Hanson had in his
pocket partially consumed bottle Of
whisky. The mans age is given as
upwards of so years.
Coroner Vincent and County Attor-
ney johnson will confer with the
Cass county officials at Fargo relative
to the disposition of the body which
will be inferred now without delay
either by Moorhead or Fargo authori.

Greatest Gathering Of Bankers Ever
Held in State Now in Fargo

growing Importance of the banking
business in this country. He spoke of
the early conditions in the state when
bankers were summed as people to be
avoided and of the change in affairs
so that now the bankers are recognized
as one of the most important bodies
of men.
He traced the origin and history OF
the word conservation, which he said
has come to be almost a national mot
to. Conservation" said Mr.. Hunt is
not boarding" 1t is guarding the f.
nancial resources of the country SO
that more money is coming into this
community through safe investments
all the time Mr.. Hunt said that the
bankers who loaned money to specu-
lative enterprises Injuries his own bus.
mess and the business of the commune
ity.
Credit is the most essential fea,
ture of all business" said Mr.. Hunt.
This credit he went on to say, is
based on confidence. The year 1910 has
furnished good object lesson Of the
abuse OF credit. Now the most i'm
portant thing for the bankers to do is
to do all in their power for the con-
servation of credit People go around
saying that money is tight. Money is not
tight, it is the lack of credit.
THE chief purpose of banking" de-
clared Mr.. Hunt, lis creating and con-
serving. Therefore the banks of the
country ought to and are aiming at
better conditions all the time. The
people are getting over the idea Of
making this state get-rich-quick
place and then getting out Of here as
soon as they have made some money.
They are becoming to see that the only.
way to succeed is to make North Da-
kota permanent residence"
Concluding this excellent address,
Mr.. Hunt said that North Dakota was
but in its infancy and that the prob
lem for the present generation of
bankers was to build the foundation
upon which one of the largest business
superstructures of this country is to
be built His address was well deliv-
cred and full of the most helpful sug-
gestions.
This afternoon the programme was
practically as arranged. The addresses
were excellent and the theatre was
packed to hear them.
