JUDGE COWAN IS IMPEACRED

Bismarck, Feb. 2~S,-Judge Cowan was
impeached in the house this,afternoon by
a vote of ga to IS after hearing the test
mony and at the end of a six hour battle
royal. 1t was the pressure of public
opinion which demoralized the opposi-
ton and forced the house to square it.
self with the people. 1t was one of the
bitterest scenes that has ever been en-
acted on the floor of the house. After
hearing testimony given before the in
vestigating committee substantiating
the serious charges brought against
Judge Cowan the house considered the
evidence ample cause for a trial before
the senate in accordance with the provi-
sions made for the impeachment trials
of judicial officers. The reading of the
testimony lasted three hours and was a
memoranda synopsis of the evidence
given before the committee by forty odd
witnesses showing that Judge Cowan
had been guilty of being drunk on the
bench, drinking in public places and the
repeated delay of cases brought up for
trial in his court. Evidence as to the
judges alleged immoral and abusive
behavior was omitted from the recital of
testimony before the house.
The Cavalier county vote was divided
Representative Moen voting in favor of
impeachment and Representatives Boyd
and Moritz against.

The February superintendent of the
state tuition fund has been announced
as being 40 cents per capita. This is
% cents less per capita than the Febru-
airy apportlonment of one year ago, and
this is accounted for on the basis of a
poorer than usual crop over the state
last fall and the consequent inability of
many of the farmers to pay their inter-
est. Cavalier county gets $2,349.06 as
its share based upon an enumeration of

The agricultural colleges are sending
out circulars in reference to seed wheat
to the farmers. They want to know if
the farmer has seed to sell, or wants to
buy seed. Whether he knows how to
treat his seed for disease, whether he
will take it to the local elevator or mill to
have it cleaned free of cost if he has no
machinery of his own and If any pure
seed of any sort is wanted. The eleva-
tor agents have the circulars or in this
state may be obtained by sending the
address to State Seed Commissioner,
Agricultural College, Fargo. This will
do much to put farmers in comnunica-
ton with each other in the buying and
selling of seed as we'll as getting farmers
to plant pure seed.

There is a story told in Bismarck
that a day or two before the session
opened one of the new representatives
arrived in town and after getting a lunch
at a restaurant called up the governor
and insisted On talking to John Burke.
When finally the governor came to the
phone a voice at the other end of the
line informed him that Representative
Blank was the owner of the voice and
that he had reported for duty. The
governor said the appropriate thing but
the conversation Jagged and finally the
new man said, "Well, governor, where

THE PRICE OF WHEAT

Friday last week. issue of the Grand
Forks Herald in an editorial leader SAYS
sour nelghbor down street, The Times
is convinced that Canadian reciprocity
will knock the stutljng out of the price
of wheat. In fact, it is convinced that
the very prospect Of reciprocity, the
mere shadow of the awful substance
that is to follow, has already performed
that dire act. In support of it's opinion
it cites the fact that whereas on Jan
aary 26, there was a difference OF IL Is
ents betWee. the price of wheat in
Winnipeg and the price IN Duluth, the
rlces on that date being 80 II cents for
Winnipeg, and Sl.05 for Duluth, by
ebruary that difference had shrunk to
. rs cents, the relative price then beng
80 l-2cents and "a So The difference,
of course, is due to the prospect of
reciprocity, in the opinion of The Times.
We are informed also in this connection
hat reciprocity could by no means have
advanced the price of Canadian wheat.
relative 10 our own. The change must
necessarily have been in the direction of
lowering the price of American wheat.
Just how or why this is so we are not
informed. Probably The Times knows.
Some interesting things may be learn
ed by a careful study of the market
reports. In fact if one known just what
he wants to prove, he can prove any
thing if he has access to enough figures.
For instance:
On May 81, 1909, which is one of the
dates. run across IN a random inspection,
No. ] northern wheat was quoted in
Winnipeg at 81 .27 IA and in Duluth at
>$l.32 l-3 a difference In favor of Duluth
of 5 So cents. On June - of the same
year the same wheat was quoted at S1.33
in Winnipeg and 81 .33 So in Duluth, the
Winnipeg price being actually an eighth
of a cent higher than the Duluth price.
In other words the price of American
wheat had shrunk 5 ga cents as COM
pared with the price in Winnipeg. The
cause of thus we understand from the
reasoning in The Times to be the fact
that President Taft was at the time
revolving in his mind the diabolical
reciprocity scheme, and in some mysteri-
Gus way, GEOGRAPHICALLY, perhaps, this
fact influenced the price of American
wheat, which is proverbially an agitated
thing.
If one were inclined to pursue the
subject he might prove that reciprocity
actually tends to advance the Canadian
price, because on June II, 1909, when no
reciprocity was talked Of, Winnipeg
wheat was worth more than Duluth
wheat, while on February Is, 1911, with
a reciprocity agreement pending, our
price is some 37.8 cents better than
that of Winnipeg. Thus the process of
reciprocity has boosted American wheat
relatively 4 cents a bushel.
As has been stated, the things that
may be proven in this ann is merely
a matter of how figures are available
and as the market reports have been
published continuously for many years,
n as there. are plenty o papers on file 1t
is the easiest thing in the world to take
any proposition and prove it or disprove
it at will by reference to the records.
