Big Issue OF Maps Of Northwest

The American Northwest must
become better known than the
Canadian Northwest and people
of the United States thinking of
the northwest must come to recog-
nize the states of Minnesota, North
and South Dakota, Idaho, Wash
ington and Oregon.
On this theory the Northwestern
Development League will publish
shortly an official map of the AM
erican Northwest and will place
the map officially in half million
school rooms. The first run Of the
printer Will be one million copies,
half Of which will be plcced in pub
lie sbhool rooms. Secretary Cam
bell Of the League estimates that
it will take two years to place the
maps and that the advertising will
be worth one hundred fold the cost
Of the maps within eighteen
months after they are placed,

Neighbor Talks Of
Oily Tongued Ag't
Comment on Expose Of What May
Prove 70 be Huge Graft Game
which has been worked HereaboutS

Since the Recorder Post publish
ed an article two weeks since re-
garding farmers signing promis-
sorry note, in return for cabinet
of nostrums and certificate of
membership in an alleged organi-
cation promising alluring benefits,
the subject has been generally dis
cnssed in the state papers.
The concensus of editorial opin-
ion and Of the best informal peo-
pie is, that every holder of a certi-
ticate in this ''promieing" scheme
will sooner or later realize the de-
lights attending payment Of a
hundred odd dollars for a cheap
certificate with a large red seal;
and about five dollars worth of
medicine" !"
One Of the best comments on
this subject we have noticed in ex.
changes appears in the Scranton
Register which says in part:
"From the description it is the
same old game-like the same old
maid in a fresh, rose tinted, drug
store complexion. No money
down but by degrees of hypnotic
suggestion, the farmer is led on to
believe that he is tho. every day
victim of the rankest hold-up ever
perpetrated by local dealers. Peo-
pie who stop long enough to take
second thought know that that
isn't true on the face of it, but the
oily tongued agent usually gets his
victims signature to, in this case.
a contract for $lO7. SO in return for
which he is to get a lot Of clap-trap,
scent counter stuff, a chest Of
medicines guaranteed to be a Pan
dora's box for all ills from a sting
ing corn to the heartaches caused
by disappointment in love; also,
free access may be had to the COM
pany's wisdom annex, or informa-
ton. except possibly that Of the
macadamized road to the holier
life as outlined in the family Bible.
1t is alleged that these contracts
and notes turn up in the hands of
third party to whom payment is
to be made forthwith as they ma
ture. The farmers who have been
caught will probably resist pay
ment of these notes on a showing
of fraud. If there is no other re-
course, the writer believes that,
outside of the unwritten law in
the despoilation CT the sanctity of
private home, if the effective use
of well loaded. heavy calibre gun
is justiticable, it would be so in the
case Of attempting to collect money
on an obligation brought about by
deliberate fraud and deceit. -
Some hope the remedies may be
potent enough, after this dose, te
make purchasers immune from
future attacks of desire to enlist
in the cause of stranger, for the
purpose of ''getting even" with
local people, who are painted by
Mr.. agent (himself perhaps a pir
ate), as high handed robbers.

will be found Prof. f. f. Ladd.
report, after examination of one
of the medicine cabinets, in which
he states the cabinet and content

WOMAN'S CHRISTIAN
 TEMPERANCE UNION

When the resubmission fight was on in Maine this year, our gallant and statesmanlike presi- dent, Mrs. l.. M. N. Stevens, said that she would freely offer her body as a sacrifice, if by so doing, the state would hold her prohibitory law.
 We do not doubt, for a minute, that she meant every word of it.
 There are thousands of mothers who would make a similar offer ing-yea, like Paul, would be willing to be themselves, a cast away, rather than have their sons and daughters devoured and debauched by the greedy man of the liquor traffic.
 Fathers there are, too, by the score, who voice the same sacri- fical spirit. Fred D. Grant of the United States army, says" If I could, by offering my body as sacrifice, free this country from this cancer, the demon drink, I would thank the Almighty for the great privilege of doing it Tell the young men that General Grant does not drink a drop of
