that the House took the matter out of
the hands of its conferees and accepted

Senate provision regarding the applica-

Lightning Kills Few

In 1906 lightning killed only
1853 people in this whole country.
Ones chances of death by lightn-

The chance of death from liver,

ly greater, but not if Electric
Bitters be used, as Robert Mad

Congress and the President

Congress has resumed busi-
ness at the old stand, and the
battle between it and the Presi-
dent from now on will rage with
increased intensity until the
sweltering days Of next summer.
The President as usual is fight
ing for the trusts and capitalists,
and in fact almost everybody
who wants to plumber the public
as he expects them to buy" him
another term. On the other
hand Congress passed several
good tariff bills last summer
which would have greatly bene-
fitted the public. President Taft
vetoed those bills as is well known
simply because he thought it was
tho wrong quarter Of the moon
or something of that sort.

Well, those election returns:

China Rends the Dragon.

For centuries China has been
bound in political slavery. So op-
pressed and benighted were the
masses that it seemed as if they
could never arise to claim their
birthright of freedom. But China
has awakened. In a patriotic and
cultured subject, DR.. Sun Vat
Sen, she found a deliverer from
the rule of the Manchus, and the
people have thrown off the folds
of the Imperial dragon which had
almost destroyed them. From
London has come private advices
that DR.. Sun, scholar and di-
plomant we'll known in London.
New York and Paris, is to be-
come President of the first pro-
Vislonal government now being
established at Shanghai, the cap
ital of the Republic of China,
and that by the first Of the year
the new government will be fully
established. The old China has
all but passed away, and in its
place has come a new republic
with a constitution promising
liberty, justice, self-government
and brotherly love. The change
is almost too great to credit. DR..
Sun promised that all foreign
rights shall be fully respected,
and foreign enterprises will be
encouraged. He appeals to the
Powers to permit the solid es-
tablishment of the new govern
ment, declaring that the Chinese
will never submit to the retaining
of power by the Manchus.

An Altruistic Age

Undoubtedly the world is grow
ing better. Not only are the fos-
silized nations, like China, wax
ing up and adopting new ideas,
but there is a great growth of
human sympathy and an under
standing of the moral response
bility of the individual toward
his fellows, in our own country.
One of the best evidences of the
latter is the work of the Nation
al Civic Federation, which en-
braced in it's membership men
women at all grades of social
standing captains of industry,
chiefs of labor, capitalists, col
lege presidents, working men
and women; all bettering the
condition Of the individual. At
the last annual meeting Presi-
dent Seth Low reported that
there had been progress all along
the line. At the coming annual
it is believed that even
greater progress will be report

''Our job

William Allen White, author,
humorists, genius and editor of
the Emporia (Kan. Gazette, has
been suggested as a possible sue
+. cessor to Postmaster General
Frank Hitchcock. When the sug-
gestion reached Mr.. White he
took his pen in hand, and here is
what happened to the sugges-
ton" aforesaid:
We have been nominated for
postmaster general by some of
our intimate sarcastic enemies.
/ Grotesque and hilarious as that
/ may seem to them, and it surely
has its direct appeal to the risi-
bles Of any normal person, the
idea strikes us as funnier than a
one-legged dancing master. 1t
may be we'll to state the facts.
We are not candidate for post
master general at this time, nor
shall we be at any time; pore
over, if President Taft, who is
on the job now, or President La
Toilette, who will be on the job
two years from now, should offer
US the place of postmaster gen
eral we should put our good right
hand in our bosom, or bOSOmS, as
| the case might be, and proudly
but firmly decline. However, it
would be a lot of fun to be post
master general long enough to
run fraud order on the United
States Steel Corporation or some
other big trust that is doing busi-
ness upon 60 per cent water in
its capitalization. But probab-
ly the order would command
more respect coming from a per-
son who was able to get away
with it solemnly and with pom
derous owlish dignity. We are
shy on that commodity.
What we want, and what we
shall have is the royal American
privilege Of living and dying in
country town. running a country
newspaper, saying what we
please, when we please, how we
please and to whom we please.
Compared with the power and
influence of a good permanent
country newspaper the little
brief authority of a measley old
postmaster general in office for
four years and forgotten forever,
is a small and uninteresting pro-
position.
I'VE want no job. We want a
good living in good town, with
the chance to grow old with a
lot of good people The Gazette
! is out Of debt. It's owner has no
political obligations out to any
man on earth. Why should he
corrode his intestines yearning
for an Office that would only
shorten his life, take him from
his home and family, and end by
making a fool of him, or develop
ing the fool that is in him? Fame
is about the cheapest tin foil that
a prize package ever was wrap
ped in. Power is a gun that
| kicks. And the chance to do good
may be found just as abundantly
in a country printing Office as it
is in the hall Of the rich and the
/ great. To write a book. to print
a newspaper, to help ones friends
and to love ones family what is
better than that? And when the
good Lord passes in the opportu
nifty now and then to take club
and lend feeble hand at smash
ing a political machine when it
gets too gay what has the post
master generals office in it that
should tempt a man from these
realities?
This world is so full of a num-
Der of things.
Il am sure we would all be as
happy as kings.

RECALLS OLD CASE

GRAND FORKS, Nov. "A petition
was filed with County Judge J. L.
Hassel in which Attorney Wilbur E.
Houpt of Buffalo, N. Y, asks for ad-
ministration papers in the estate of
the late Eugene Butler. Houpt was
formerly guardian of the deceased and
of the estate.
The filing of the petition brings up
the story of the deceased who at one
time was a popular and well-to-do
bachelor farmers who lives west of Lar
imore, and who for the last eight
years has been an inmate of the state
hospital for the insane at jamestown.
Butler came to Grand Forks county
in 1880 with a number Of others, from
New York state. He picked out three
quarters of a section of land near
Larimore and started in to farming.
He rapidly improved the land and
built a substantial home. He was ac-
counted a moderately we'll fixed farm
er. In spite of the fact that he had
made many friends, he continued to
live alone on the farm, doing all the
work about the house.
About ten years ago he was noticed
to have changed considerably and at
times in the night would ride his hors-
es at a. break neck speed about the
country. Those who are familiar with
the case state that he lost his mind
through his hermit habits He gradu-
ally became worse and was brought
here and taken befor~ the insanity
board.
Eight years ago in January he was
sent to the insane asylum at James
town, where he has been since. ne
died on Sunday, October %, aged 62
years. The estate. which Will amount

A leoend About Cats.

The ancient Greeks thought that all
creatures except cats had souls and
that that animal lost its soul through
a bargain made between bridge
architect and the devil. The archi-
tect had besought the devil to get help
in constructing an exceedingly dan
gerous bridge structure, and his sa-
tanic majesty only consented to lend
aid on condition that the first creature
to cross it should lose its soul. This
was agreed upon. the bridge finished
in due time and the devil sent to the
opposite side to await his prey. The
shrewd architect took good care to
send cat over before any human be-
ing was allowed to cross. On learning
Of the bargain the cat recrossed the
bridge and scratched the architects
