FRIDAY, FEB. IL, 1911.
ANNEX CANADA.

Representative Bennett of New York
has the proper conception of national
matters. He has introduced bill for
the annexation of Canada, ..
The line of argument put up by the
advocates of reciprocity is better for
annexation than the purpose intended.
Annexation will meet with a great
deal more approval on this side Of the
line than the original suggestion.
Americans wouldn't mind taking the
Canucks and their products-if it was
on family basis-but some of them
object to taking rank outsider into
the family circle-and permitting him
to enjoy all the advantages of home.
Canada would be big and a valu-
able addition to the U. S. 1t would
make nation that could go some.
The people are alike, they speak the
same language and have many things
in common.
Why not have annexation!

FISK BROTHERS, JUDGES.

Some time ago there was a great
deal of comment over the fact that
there were two Foss brothers in con-
gress. One of them later resigned to
be governor.
North Dakota is establishing some
thing of a reputation in the brother
business. For years it has had Judge
Fisk, first as district Judge at Grand
Forks and later as member Of the
supreme court.
Governor Burke has made a Judge
out of another member Of the family.
appointing Frank Fisk, a brother of
the supreme court justice, to a posi-
ton in the newly created eleventh dis.
trict.
The new judge is a pleasant, affable
gentleman with considerable expert
ence at the bar, both in Bottineau and
Williston. He is very popular in the
western part of the state. If he makes
as good a judge as his brother-and
there seems no reason why he should
not-North Dakota is to be congratu-
lated.

north and south were snarling and
swapping at each other-getting ready
for the carnival of blood and destruc-
tion-which opened with bombardment
OF Fort Sumter in April. On March
. there will be held in Atlanta the
third annual convention of the South
ern Commercial congress. 1t will be
OF exceptional interest as being de-
signed to mark the material progress
that the south has made since the
close Of the war and the end of the
reconstruction era. 1t will be a not
able gathering.
1t is well known that since the close
of the war a new spirit has entered
into the south, and business enterprise
has fourished. 1t is well that at this
time-just half a century after the sec
lions unsheathed their swords against
each other-such a demonstration of
the spirit OF the new south should he
given under such distinguished aus
pices. 1t will be profitable for the
business men of the north to visit

SPRING SHOOTING BAD
Many People careIessIy Sign Petit
tions Without Considering What
They Mean-Farmer's View

1t is interesting to note that there
are people who believe the spring
shooting clause should be retained in
the game law. 1t is interesting to
note that there are some farmers
who recognize the fact that there are
many people who sign petitions who
do 1t just to please somebody. The
letter appended shows how one farm
err Of North Dakota feels on shooting
at geese, ducks and other birds in the
spring. The thought of this letter is
worthy of the consideration of every
farmer and legislator in North Dakota:
Prof. HI. L. Bolley, N. d. A. C.
Dear Sir: / know you are much in
terested in all kinds of game. I was
in town yesterday, / was asked by a
man living In town 40 sign petition
to the North Dakota legislature to al
low shooting geese and ducks in the
spring. / refused to sign as / think
they ought to be protected during the
mating period. They tried to tell me
all kinds of things such as the farm
ers Of the south having to protect
their fields with guns to drive away
ducks and geese. / am sure that
many are signing that probably never
shoot and are doing 1t only to please
somebody, it is not their voice as will
be claimed by those interested. The
persons probably most interested are
those selling guns and shots, and the
few that will go out shooting in the
spring simply to shoot something. not
taking into consideration that the bird
probably has a nest and they are
driving the birds away probably for
years. / never asked IL prairie chick
ems were included. The protection of
birds is of much interest for the
farmer.
you may be able to do much il
you attend to this from the farmers
They are distributing the
petition over all North Dakota in every
town and township.
Il noticed bill No. 40 has been in
troduced In the senate by Mr. Me-
Lean for an act providing for the
further protection of wild geese of any
variety, and wild brant, which / hope
may pass.
Hoping you will pardon me writ
ing you this letter, and thereby tres
passing on your time, ! am, respec-
lively yours. B. Fl. Thorlakson"
believe with the writer of the let
ter that whatever game law lis in ex-
istence should prevent spring shooting
Of birds. 1t Is not necessarily the
birds that are killed but the birds that
are disturbed which form the great
loss. Yours truly, I'll. L. Bolley.

Travellers Tales

The last time Lee Muckenfuss, the
happy lucky manager of the Fargo
office of the Western Vaudeville as
ISOLATION, went home on a visit, the
corner groceryman slipped one over on
him. Lees home is in st. Louis where
his father used to run the St. Louis
National league baseball team.
AS Muckenfuss piled off the street
car block away from his home he
noticed hearse being driven away
from the house next door to his own
home. His curiosity was very much
aroused, so he decided to ask Heinze
the groceryman at the corner where
he alighted from the car, regarding
the appearance of the funeral pro-
cession.
After he had exchanged greetings
with the old family groceryman. he
motioned to the funeral procession.
Whose dead over there at Smiths
house, Heinzie?" asked Muckenfuss
''Vy, dat is Chon Schmidt dats dead
me by" replied the groceryman as he
patted the returned young man on the
shoulder.
John SMITH" cried the Fargo man,
'Heinzie, old boy, you surely do not
mean to say John Smith is dead. why
he always was hale and hearty. You
simply don't mean it, that's ALL"
well, py golly," rejoined Heinzie.
"vot you dink dey doin' nit him

LIVING BECOMES EASIER.


This time last year there was only
one topic OF general interest-the high
cost OF living.
The prices of all food products at
that time reached new attitudes. II
caused hunger and suffering. In some
cities riots resulted. Economists and
statesmen puzzled themselves to find
the cause and indicate the remedy.
But food still remained scarce. and
living was almost beyond the income
Of the average man.
Today, however. there is a different
condition. Living has become easier.
The prices of practically all food pro-
ducts this February show marked
decline from the prices prevailing last
February.
For the decline two things are di-
rectly responsible one is indicated in
the following news dispatch from New
York: THE spring supply Of eggs
from the west has begun to reach New
York almost a month earlier than MS
ual and in almost twice the ordinary
size shipments for this time of the year
The mild weather in the west, poultry
men say, has aroused the hens to their
duties earlier than usual The other
reason Is found in the bumper crops
harvested last fall.
IT Is thus plain that though the de-
rnand has In no wise lessened, the
supply has been greatly enlarged.
But mild winters and abundant har-
vests can not always be counted on to
come to the rescue. Now, since the
demand can not be expected to di-
nlnish, but Oh the other hand will con-
