"a WON'T BE LONG,"

Il won't be long," the little Boy said
AS he clattered down the stair,
And found him hat for his curly head
And called TO a dog somewhere.
Then off ike d fash down the sandy lane
With a whistle audcry and song;
With a whistle and cry and song;
Il won't be gone very long"
Il won't be long," the Little Boy said,
AS we saw him among the trees,
His eyes all bright and his cheeks
all red,
A friend of the birds and bees;
Then through the hedges and out OF
the gate,
For naughr IN the world goes wrong
With a boy os six, or seven, or eight
Il won't be gone very long"
Il won't be long," the Little Boy said.
I'm just going out to play"
And the little dog barked and the two
Of them sped
Over the clover away.
He waved us kiss with little brown
hand,
And cries rose from here and there.
A dog in the open air!
Il won't be long," the Little Boy said
Don't wait any supper-you see.
I'll just have bowl OF milk and bread
And my dog he with eat with me-
Then he swung his hat on its tangled
string
Till the curly dog wagged his tail
And roInped and played like a boy in
spring
And barked him comrades han.
81 won't be long," the Little Boy said.
Oh, mother of him don't cry!
The leaves come green again, yellow
and red,
And the years and years go by.
But sometimes he'll come, as we've
seen him do,
With the bark OF dog and a song
For Il must be true-oh it must be true
That he'll not be gone very long,

Evening Post.

nual meeting of the commercial club
day or two ago, will attend the meet
ing of the city council next Monday
night with the idea of learning some
things about the inspection of milk
and foodstuffs as conducted under the
city government. 1t is alleged that
the method of inspection is not gem

amenable to inspection-they don't
object TO inspection, they concede it's
necessity, but the thoroughness It is
thought is open to question. 1t is al

every atom of milk, cream, butter and
foodstuffs offered for sale in the city
of Moorhead ought to be subject TO
inspection and that the consumer
should know that what he or she BUYS
has been inspected.

VICE President Mackall of the COM

as the committee on the inspection of
milk and foodstuffs: Hubert Zervas,

position had been a question of much
speculation and so high is the esteem
in which his opinion is held, that it is
known that some members of the
senate have held in allegiance their
own opinions until they could hear
from him.
There was a large attendance of
senators and the gallaries were well
filled. Root spoke without notes and
In the main, his address consisted
of careful analysis OF the testimony
taken by the committee The argu-
ment was almost entirely legal.
Citing the resolution under which
the inquiry was directed, Root said
that the committee had failed to find
testimony sufficient to justify the
conclusion that Lorimer's seat had
been rendered invalid by the employ
ment Of corrupt methods or prac-
tees
1T is fair to infer he said that
the committee was of the opinion that
corrupt methods and practices were
resorted to, but that their legal effect
was not such as to invalidate Lori

LEES FARM LOAN BILL
Had Marrow Escape But Was Or
dered Printed and Placed on
General Orders.

Rep. S. n. Lee Of Clay county, aid
ed by Reps. 0. Hauge, d. p. C'Neill
and John G. Lennon, yesterday made
successful fight in the legislature
to save his bill creating a board of
farm loans to invest state school funds
in farm mortgages at per cent The
Dill was recommended by the COM
mittee on general legislation for in
definite postponement.
The only question is whether or
not the legislature shall commit itself
to a proposition to loan state funds in
a manner absolutely and specifically
prohibited by the constitution" argued
l.. {. Cooper. What's the use Of
wasting time on a proposition that
clearly is unconstitutional
The constitution of a very handy
thing to invoke when any measure de-
sired by the people and for their ben
ettt is proposed" retorted Mr. O'Neill.
There is no safer investment than
farm loans and 1t is better that the
surplus funds be invested in the state
than in securities of other states"
, After fiery argument by Mr.. Len
non in behalf OF the bill it was ordered
printed and placed on general orders.

F. B. & Co.: We advocate the sale
of wheat on every strong spot.
Shearson- Hammill & Co.: Until
something new comes into the stu
alton bulling wheat looks like a hope
less proposition.
Logan & Bryan: There appears to
be radical change of sentiment in
the local trade from bullish to bear
ish belief in first hour and last yester-
day. Possibly the local trade is a lit
tie over sold on the dips.
S. B. Chaplin & Co.: Until the gen.

terially we see no prospects for other
than scalping trade in the face of
crop developments.

Chicago Gossip.

Chicago, Feb. 3.-The feature of
wheat to show any improvement in
price and the heavy sales by commits
sion houses on the bulges, created more
bearish sentiment at the close. Bulls
were inclined to be less aggressive
and until there is a radical change
in the cash situation many traders
were disposed either to keep out of
the market, or to sell on the strong
spots. Local traders were friendly to
the long side at the start, but the de-
mand was filled up before the mar, It
mand was filled up before the market
got fairly under way. Commission
