Dickinson can not be so easily dis
counted, from any political or party

Dickinson can not be so easily dis
counted, from any political or party
point of view. Secretary Dickinson's
administration has not been sub
jected to any such. severe criticism
as was Mr.. Ballinger's. In fact, it has
escaped criticism of any kind, there
having arisen no occasion calling it
into active measures, which always
provoke criticism. The statement that
the secretary's retirement from office
is dictated by the losses he has suf-
fered in business ventures, and
which he is naturally anxious to re-
pair, must be accepted as sufficient.
Yet it remains to be said that the
appointment was never, at any time,
a popular one. Mr.. Dickinson was an
unknown man outside of the legal
profession, in which he had attained
eminence and large corporation prac'
tice. The fact of his corporation con-
nections did not pupularize his ap-
pointment, when to it was added the
fact of his being a Democrat. He
had supported Mr.. Mckinley, and Mr..
Taft, as against Organism, but he
was Democrat in everything con-
corning that false economic teaching
of his party which Republication re-
CARDS as heresy. The appointment OF
Mr.. Dickinson and other free'trade
Democrats in the Taft cabinet was
from the first regarded with disfavor
by the mass of Republicans, and
subsequent events have in no way
diminished their fears. However, 1t
can not be assumed that Mr.. Dickin-
sons retirement grows out of any
change of front by me president on
the tariff question, or as a conces-
sion by him to the strong protection
sentiment in his party. We would
like it better if this Interpretation
could be fairly placed upon it.
A cause for congratulation is that
the retiring Democrat will be sue.
ceeded in the cabinet by a Republic.
an. 1t may or may not be significant
that the Republican selected, Henry
F. Stimson, lately defeated as his
party's candidate for governor of New
York, comes also out of that ele-
ment in the party which forced the
retirement of Mr. Ballinger. OF Mr..
Stimson's high qualification for the
place no doubt will be raised in any
quarter. And there can be no more
doubt of his integrity than of his Of.
ficiency. But We much dislike the
story that his appointment Is coun.
to that of Wilmington of
New York as assistant treasurer, rep
the opposite faction in New
York Republicanism. FOR we can't
help thinking that undue exaltation
If New York patronage gave the
Democratic party its first national
victory in a generation, in 1884.

THE RAIN.

While the crops of the state Vi
North Dakota were not suffering LOT
moisture, the rain of the past 1e"
DAYS was very acceptable and as a
matter of fact in some places very
timely. With spring starting out
mich in the same manner as the early
months of 1910, there was certain
amount of concern in many distrlcts'
and while the state has not for many
years experienced two poor seasons
in succession, some were rather pes
simistic as to the prospects. NO"
that the rain has come and every
section of the state has been visited
it is up to the farmers to take ad'
vantage of it and conserve the mols'
ture. The Bismarck Tribune, In con-
nection with every other good paper
of the state, has for the past year or
more urged upon the ayriculturist the
need of scientific, or as 1t Is some
times called, dry farming meth
DDS. There is reason in every word
that has been printed in the news
papers or that has been spoken at
the various farmers meetings over
the state. The rain hay come, there
is an abundance of it. and II the
moisture is conserved it will do twice
the good that could be obtained un'
der the old methods. If the farmers
will do their share now nature will
do the rest. North Dakota from all
present indications seems to be on
the verge of harvesting another good
crop.

REFORM FOR REVENUE ONLY

REFORM FOR REVENUE ONLY
Some papers in the state have so
severe an attack of reform that every
time verdict is handed down in the
case of some state or national officer
against whom charges are made, they
Immediately begin to shout lineup
"frameup" or whitewash."
Why not admit that sometimes the
other fellow may be night and that
there Is possibility for the exist.
ence of an honest official, outside of
the holier than thou persons who are
taking SO much about reform and
doing so little towards bringing about
results except where the reformer
would benefit politically by the re.
moval of discrediting of one with
whom said reformers does not agree.
