man Hanna, during his career in
the lower house of the national
legislature, has been an inde-
fatigable worker for the best in
terests of the state of North
Dakota and it's people, which
fact is recognized and acknow-
lodged by Republicans and Dem
ocrats alike, and the grand work
he has accomplished for the state
and the betterment of it's people,
while a member of congress, is
assurance quite sufficient to our
people that as governor there
will be no relaxation in that
work, but that Mr.. Hanna will
continue to shape his every ef-
fort to the upbuilding of the
state and the welfare Of entire
people. He has been fairly
weighed in the balance and nev-
er yet been found wanting, hence
it is safe to predict now that the
people will rally to his standard
in the forthcoming primaries and
record by their votes, in no un-
mistakable way, their apprecia-
tion of the magnificent work
performed by him in their inter
est while serving in the national
congress. Following is Mr..
Hanna's announcement:
/ hereby announce myself as
a candidate in the primaries to
be held in June, 1912, for the
republican nomination for gov
ernor Of North Dakota.

WHOLE BOARD
IS ARRESTED.
School Officers Must Answer
to Charge of Misappro-
priatiOn of Funds

On complaint of N. Van Worst
of near Vanville Monday before
Justice Kopriva the school board
in Little Butte School District
No. rs, consisting of A. H.
Smith, Paul Kelly and Clarence
Onstad were arrested on the
charge of misrepresentation of
school funds. On being taken
before the justice Monday even
ing the board asked for a con-
tinuance until yesterday after
noon, and this was granted. In
the meantime the defendants
employed Attorney C. E. Pierson
of this city as their counsel.
Their trial commenced yester-
day afternoon at two o'clock at
the court room in the court
house, and as The Tribune goes
to press the case is being tried.
The case is the result of a long
drawn out affair which
started early last spring, when
the school board which held Of
flee before the defendants we're
elected, employed a teacher for
term of months and went into
contract with her. The teacher
is from Iowa and her name Bes-
sic McManus. Shortly after she
she commenced the term of
school Willis Stonnard of that
district and who was on the old
board, refused to send his child
rem to school, and as the number
Of children in the district with
out the Stonnard children was
| very small and not enough un-
der the law to warrant the dist
rict in conducting the remainder
of the term, the institution was
closed and the teacher dismissed
and her salary paid to the date
of dismissal.
The teacher felt that as long
as she had a signed contract
with the board for term of
months they had no right to dis
miss her before the term was up,
and told the board so. 1t will be
noted that she was hired by the
old board and fired by the one
that went into Office last June.
Instead of leaving for her Iowa
home Miss McManus stayed in
the district and was ready to
teach each morning until the end
of the contracted term.
The term expired a short time
ago and she made a demand on
the board for her pay, but the
board refused. She then went
to Kenmare and consulted with
an attorney who advised her that
her claim was just and could be
collected if a suit was started
against the board. After she
had about decided to bring the
suit the board gave her a war
rant for the entire sum called
for by the contract. 1t is under
stood that before paying her the
money the board had consulted
both the states attorney and an
other lawyer in Bowbells and
were advised by both that. the
district was liable for the amount
called for by the contract and
that if suit was brought
against the district the teacher
would easily win out.
The members of the old board
evidently thought that the dis
trict had no right to pay for
services which were not render
ed by the teacher, hence Mr..
Van Wort swore out the. ,cem-
plant.

Glee Club Concert.

The University of N. D. Glee
Club gave a splendid concert
Monday evening before a large
audience at the opera house and
everybody present enjoyed the
program from start to finish.
The Club was the best ever heard
in the city and showed the re-
suits of long practice and careful
training. The stunts pulled off
on the .encores and in the student
scenes won the hearts of all in
the house. The solos were all
we'll received especially those of
Prof. Norton and Mr.. Hunt.
Should the Glee Club see fit to
make Hope another visit in the
future they will be assured of a
rousing reception and a packed
house.

to the saloon? It is open, uncom-
promising, undying hostility.
Too many working men spend most
of their wages each week at the saloon
and have nothing In return for it but
enfeebled constitutions and wretched-
ness in their homes. This il the cause
of most of the poverty Of which so
much complaint is made. Oppressive
capitalists have some share in the
work Of producing poverty, but greedy
saloon-keepers have an h~undred-fold
greater share.
May God hasten the day when all
the moral and religious forces Of the
nation shall be marching shoulder to
shoulder to the destruction of this
monster evil. Whom the temptation
of the saloon is removed, when the
drunkard shall be lifted to sobriety
and industry, and his wronged wife
and innocent children are delivered
from the wrongs of the fendish dis
penser Of the hellish stuff, then will
strikes have ended, jails and prison
houses become tenantless, and every
home, filled with peace, joy and pros
perity.

The most vicious and dangerous
evil of modern times is the saloon.
1t is the enemy of the home, the church,
the state. Its agents know neither
conscience nor honor. Inspired by
greed they will if necessary to accom-
plish their ends, degrade the home,
corrupt the church and dishonor the
state. Controlling q vast army OF
voters whom it has 'debauched, It die
tates party nominations and municipal
state and national legislation Ever
alert, aggressive and interruptions, it
trades upon the evil passions of pub

petty spites or filing yawning pockets.

CT, mentions one 600 years old, and there have existed vines in modern times in Italy and France whose age was known to be three to four centuries. An article in the Technical World tells of some of the famous old vines of California, which were introduced probably from Spain, by the old Franciscan fathers, away back in the 18th century. Near Santa Bar bara is huge vine called La Vina Grande," which so far as is known, is the biggest individual grape vine in the world. The trunk is 10 feet in circumfer- ence and resembles the trunk of a big oak rather than a grapevine. Some of it's branches are over four feet round and the vine is trained over massive arbor which covers q space of 10000 square feet. This vine has produced as much as 12 tons of grapes in a single season. This vine is not so old as might be sup posed from its great size. for it was planted by Spanish woman in 1Si2.
 The famous Trinity" vine near Los Angeles-so called because 1t has three principle branches-is much older. though it covers only half as much ground as La Vina Grande." It was a very large vine as far back as the year 1900. Al these old-time vines are of the Mission

songs of Schumann. Witness Arthur Sul- livan. who was essentially British, touch- ing the British sympathes at every point, and the inward life of mystical aspira . ton at no point, not even in his religious music.
 These matters should not lead anyone, however, to deny that an Englishma n could rise to a great achievement in music. Nature or evolution, has oc- casionally a way of setting all our ideas and prejudices at naught at a single stroke. The genius is by it's very nature exceptional, and it is impossible to tell where it will crop out. But while we are not to be unprepared for a great musical creator from England, the very fact that he is so striking an exception is considerable confirmation of the main ideas of the Common Sense Spe- cia Hist ''

 When we look 70 see who is Great Britains greatest musician, we perceive 1t to be Sir Edward Elgar-a mystic: that is an exception to the British tempera- ment. as William Blake, the mystic poet was an exception. And even this mystic musician found it necessary to write 'Pomp and Circumstance' march to ap- peal to the pompous and circumstantial Briton. who loves such affairs as corona ton ceremonies. It is easily supposable that the title of this work of Elgar was not given it without satirical intent.
 Almost any Englishman can sing a song. and will usually stand up and do so in any company on demand He does not mind the fact that he is not giving an artistic rendering of an artistic work It is part of mans accomplishment to be able to sing ballad. and that is the end of It. This fact. in a sense, reflects the British temper in music. It is ob- jective, it goes with the external things of life. Who are the great English sing CTS known to America?. They are the bal lad and oratorio singers. No one would expect the English singer to find con- genial the intimate and interpretive

ARCTIC DREAMS
 NOW SHATTERED

From the St. Louis Times.
 Our faith in the fact that somewhere the world is still wild and primitive that the Esklmos of St. Michaels, Alas ka, have asked the government at Wash ington to send them postal savings bank.
 Where are now our dreams of the igloo, of pemmcan, of gumdrops and fishhooks? Where are now the pictures drawn by Cook and Peary? Also. what shall we think or that amiable story related b ythe late Mark Twain in which we are made to shiver pleasantly at the sight of people whosebellies carried fishgigs in their hair, and whose Appollos wore an ugly look and a band of un- tanned leather around their ankles whose philosophers knew nothing mora than such simple facts as how many camps it was to the sea, and whose financiers boasted only of an extra fish hook?
 When I-Took -Shoo made his appear ance among us he pined for the unset ting sun and the bracing cold. He said nothing about the readiness of his peo- pie for the postal savings banks.
 In the temperate zones we accept our banks a. sign of our bondage to the customs which mean civilization. We rejoice in the possession of deposit books and balances. But 1t is not the universal passion for books of travel founded up- on our faith in the statements of trav- elers to the effect that there is a place somewhere where the bank never has been heard of, and where people save nothing, for the good reason that they have nothing to save.
 Where shall we turn for a place which shall send the call of the wild to us, If postal savings banks are to be adopted by the Eskimos? Shall we not hear, next, that the people furthest north are ordering their gumdrops from the mail order houses, and have DO further need of those genial travellers who write books of the things they have never seen?

ENGLAND'S MUSICAL STATUS
Sir Edward Elgar Ranks as Greatest
 Musician in Britain

from the Musical America.
 Just when England, through MT. Bal four's speech at the opening of the 1n- ternational Musical congress In London. ia birding itself on being lifted to a con-
 temporary world power in music by that congress, it appears somewhat ungraci- ous that a British Common Sense Spe- cialist," writing In M A. P, should level such a vicious blow at British musical ccmplaisance. The farce of British music" he calls it. He admits the in- creasing activity of the opera and con cert-going world, but attributes IL to the demands of social requirements, and on tho part of women, who are the chief concert -goers, to hysteria. In summing up. the Common Sense Specialist de- ,lares flatly that England is not mus teal nation, that the true musician musf 'possess something of the divine fire or genius, of mystical genius, In ract. Mysticism and the British character, he says, "are as foreign to one another as is nlu,n pudding to a motor car.''
 Emerson has somewhat pointed out that when one man starts to rock boat all the others in the boat must become ap- normal in the opposite direction, ana forsaking their normal occupations must devote themselves to counteracting the effects of the boat rocker So when MT. Balfour makes as extra ordinary and
 
 the place occupied by Britain among the great creative musical countries. he necessarily creates condition where someone else must endeavor to bring the boat back to a level. Although the Identity of the answerer is not disclosed. one would gather from his words that 1t might be John F. Runciman.
 It IS to be considered whether the words or the Common Sense Specialist" have not. in truth, a very large element of comomn sense in them. The writer strikes close to the root of the matter in what N's about mystical genius" Look ing back of the present highly civilized eitish product the power-loving, beef eating Englishman at his highest glory in the Elizabethan era found the drama his most congenial art expression. There was the opportunity to display the pomp, pageantry and passion that were dear to his soul There is nothing of mystical in the British poetic drama. Extremes, however, create their oppisites, and the inevitable obverse of the coin, art lstically. in England took not the form of music. but of more highly subtilized
