FRATERNAL orders are a

F'RATERNAL orders are a
national blessing. They promote
thrift, economy, sobriety, with
out freezing the soul into selfish
ness, as is apt to be the case in
the usual struggle for wealth or
social position. They bring men
into closer social relations, and
cherish those feelings that thrive
and put forth blossoms in each
others welfare. They make men
thoughtful and helpful, expand
ing the sentiments Of love, char
ity and good will. They teach
us the religion that breaks bread
to the hungry, gives a cup Of wa
ter to the thirsty, watches at the
bed of the sick, visits the father
less and the widows-duties that
are sadly neglected and for a long
time were supposed to belong ex-
clusively to the church.

Virginia visitor on Saturday.
Lieut.. Gov. Gordon is prominent
ly mentioned as a prospective Re-
publican standard bearer in the
1912 campaign, but refuses to dis
cuss this point, preferring to feel
the public pulse, evidently, before
deciding to shy his castor. In
case he does make decision to
do so, however, he may be assured
OF the support Of the country
press of the state, being one of
the boys in good standing with
the fraternity.
HENRY HUGHES for congress
is the cry that has been started by
the Deer River News. Good.
Henry Hughes was for long time
a resident of Virginia, and while
we know naught of his politics
we do know him as an honest, con-
scientious man; as a man whose
word is as good as a gold bond !;
as a man who would not turn
down a delegation seeking county
division legislation although the
steel corporation might demand
it as the price of future political
advancement. That is the kind
OF men needed in congress, but to
the shame Of the American voter
be it said that it is the kind of
which too few are to be found in
the line of political preferment.

\. THE failure of reciprocity in
Canada is claimed by some to be
responsible for the raise in the
price Of flour during the past
week. Perhaps the failure of
reciprocity gave the American
trust an opportunity to boost
things and lay it onto something
but there can be no denying
the fact that it takes mighty little
excuse to boost the prices on any
kind Of food-stuffs so long as the
trusts know they own the govern
ment and are all free from Of
fetal interference.
