THE NORMAL SCHOOL.

The state normal school located at Minot has had
rough and rugged path. There was one time
when the citizens Of Minot were all together and
that was just before the bill was passed locating
tbs school here. No sooner had the appropriation
for the school been made than the various interested
got busy. The political factions became interested
and believe U.s. there has been merry war. A
majority gof the normal board located the school
the South hill. Governor Burke, the railroads and
many OF the citizens of Minot decreed that the
school should be located in the valley. Out OF
Difference to the governor the board reopened the
case considered petitions galore and finally decided
but to relieve itself OF the responsibility, impored
with the good people Of Minot to wash its own dirty
laundry and devise ways and means Of settling the
matter in an amcable manner. At meeting OF the
citizens at the Commercial club rooms after
what stormy session, it was decided that an cleo.
tion should be held and rules governing this elec
ton were adopted. A committee consisting Of two
men favorng each Of the three sites was appointed
and every member Of the committee decided to stand
by the result of the election which was held last
Saturday. The Ramstad North side site won. Now
what many would like to know 10 whether or not,
VIII the board settle the matter according to the re-
SALTS Of this election? This board has appeared
somewhat weak1need The board might have set

DON'T DARE 10 TELL THE WHOLE TRUTH.

An old farmer friend who has read the lndepenu-
for the rast ten years and who will cont nue. to
be an interested reader for many years TO come
criticized the Independent as well as newspapers In
general in this fashion THE papers do not ca.a
to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but
the truth farmer may be a lazy shiftless sort OF
a fellow, spending half of his time loafng when he
ought to be at work, and you refer to him as one
OF the prosperous tillers of the soil. He may be
50 rthing that he merely scratches the surface OF
the EARTH sowing his seed in every old way and
you call him an up-,o-date farmer His field may be
so full of foul weeds that you can't see his wheat
and YOU tell what an enormous yield of the grain
he is going to get He may have planted rev
acres of corn that looks good deal like an accident
and you tell of the enormous amount of feed he Is
growing. You editors ought to tell the unvarnlshed
truth When farmer tells you about his wheat
yielding twenty bushels, you ought to verify the
statement before you publish the report. Instead
you all consider that you have liars license and
your conscience does not seem to trouble you
Our farmer friend may be right in a way We
thanked him for the advice and offered 10 trade
places with him for week. He declined. We told
him that if we verified every statement made In one
issue OF the Independent we wouldn't get around
to get out an issue in year. Some OF the in1or-
nation that we get is not the most reliable we
can't help it. We have to take the other fellows
word for the most part. As for telling the unvafS
nished truth, none Of us dares to d. It. II we fol-
lowed this rule for just one week. half OF our SUD
scrbers would take to the tall timber and the other
half would see that we followed them. This Is
funny old world. The editor will continue to lie
occasionally for the edifcation Of his large fam

DO WE WANT TO RETAIN OUR BAND?

If Mnot wants to retain its excellent band, it will
have to give the organization the support that 1t de-
serves. Last year were without band and we
had to send to the smaller towns every time any
celebration was held. This year Manager Halsey
got together the best musicians in the city, splen-
did library of music bought, and the boys have
been practcing twice and three times week
They had to spend $75 for uniforms and it
sary to buy new Instruments valuable only for band
purposes The band asks little in return. The
members play without compensation, but they feel
though our citizens ought to show their apprecia-
ton to such extent that the necessary expenses
will at least be paid. The band has given weekly
concerts on the street all summer long. What bet
ter advertising can a city have than good band,
playing high class music and playing it WELL before
crowd Of several thousand gathered on streets
each week? Let's keep this organization intact by
contributing to It's support law ie in order pro-
vidns for the municipal support o. bands, regulated
by the size Of the cities. This would relieve the
bands Of many humihating situations and provide
for the steady support Of Of the best advertise
ments any city can possibly have.

but the rich who wishes to travel 1000 miles

In travelling through the country, we notice that
there are 50 many farmers who summer fallow-
ing their land, who are not blowing half deep
enough. The ground has been pretty dry for this
work, and it is hard matter to pillow deep enough,
but since the rains all should take great pains to
turn the soil over to sufficient depth. You can
never store up moisture in soil that Il plowed too
shallow

The Westhope Standard has figured that the
American Snuff Co. has spent $500 advertising in
the Bottineau county papers during the past two
months, and being we'll pleased with the results,
is duplicating the orginai contracts with all OF the
newspapers. When a New York concern finds it prof.
liable to spend much money advertising it's wares
the local business certainly ought to be con-
vinced that advertising pays.
