PLANNING LARGELY FOR NEXT
YEAR-HAS HELD MANY OF
F1CEs ON RESERVATION.

John Strait, one of the industrious
as we'll as popular Indians on the res
ervation, was in the city today bring
ing his son-in-law here to secure the
services of a physician for him. He
dropped into the World and gave
short description of the winter there.
Mr.. Strait is 46 years old, has always
lived on the Fort Totten reservation
and has 100 acres of land which has
paid him much money by his working
it WELL He is we'll educated, has seen
to that his two boys and two girls
have received all the advantages Of the
schooling that is afforded and has done
his best to send them into the world
to earn livelihood.
He was formerly a justice Of the
peace for the Indians, and has served
for several years as deputy sheriff.
His regard for the American law is,
high and he has always done his best
to enforce it. One son is an interpre-
ter for the Indian physician.
One hundred and twenty acres will
be broken on his farm this spring and
will be sowed to grain. He says man
with this size farm can work it better,
cheaper and make just as much money.
He requested the World to be sent to
him Oh the reservation.

MANY DIFFERENT FORMS OF
ADJUSTMENTS TO BE GIVEN BE-
TWEEN NOW AND SPRING.

Devils Lake talent will lie kept busy
from now on until spring entertaining
the public, if the plans which nave
been made are carried out. Everyone
who has any aptitude at all for ap-
pearing before an audience will find
themselves in use at several different
occasions.
No doubt the largest production will
be the giving of "Queen Zephra" by
the Elks lodge. Shortly after this will
come the first grand concert of the
Devils Lake band and it is understood
the pupils of the high school are work
ing at play which will be given some
time before spring. The O'Callaghans
have also promised to treat the thea
TRIGGERS of the city to a fine amateur
play during the winter.
That Devils Lake has talent within
it's borders who are genuine and can
produce will be shown perfectly during
the next few months.

THE SLACK BETWEEN WINTER
SHOULD BE IMPROVED BY PRE-.
q PARAT1oN FOR srRINa WORK.

There is q duh time on now for only
"a few weeks which could be used to
good advantage by the farmers Of the
Lake Region in testing their seed,
cleaning the foreign substances from it
and mapping out a direct line Of work
for the coming year. This sort Of
plan could be carried on by farmer
the same as merchants.
So many acres should be set aside for
one thing, so much for another and
so on until the plans for the entire
farm has been gone over. A map OF
an outlay should be made and marked
with just how much is to be pastured,
its location, how much is to be sum-
mer fallowed where it lies and when
the work and where the work will
start. This planning should take over
a week for the average farmer in this
country.
The next week should be spent in
choosing the best kind of seed. If
you wasn't satisfied with what you
had last year or if the experiments
which have been made at the differ
ent agricultural schools has convinced
you there is something better adapted
to your land, sell what you have and
; make change to the better even if it
costs you more
Then for several weeks you would be
more than busy preparing your seed for
the best possible growth. After re-
moving the foreign substances from it
the grain might need treating such as
is recommended by the agricultural
experts.
By the time this preliminary work
has been accomplished the time has
drawn near when the plows, machinery
and things around the farm should, be
put in readiness for the spring worl-

Honor for a Thing Unslone

There is truth of high import
ince in Secretary Knox's tribute to
Mr.. Taft for his refusal to play
politics with the Mexican question
\ president less sincere. less pat
riotic and more selfish would have
iound opportunity over and aover
again to force a situation which
practically insures his reelection.
There are men who in President
raft's place would not have hest
lated one instant to use the oppor-
tunity for all it was worth to ad-
vance their political fortunes, even
though the price were to be paid
later in millions of money not their
own and thousands of other human
lives.
Let this fact be recognized In
any just estimate of William H.
raft's services to his country

to cover up the fact that he is an
out-and-out free trader, a fact
which is further substantiated by
mis- appeal to the manufacturers of
Great Britain for financial assist
ance for his campaign and the i'm
preston created therein that free
trade would come and that British
manufacturers would get a new
foothold in the United States.
If such a condition as this is
brought about-and it is inevitable
if Professor Wilson is elected pres
ident-many of our manufacturing
and industrial plants will either
nave to go out of business, thus
throwing out of employment a
great army of working people or
they will be forced to reduce the
lost of production to that of Great
Britain. If this latter course we're
taken the wages of American labor
would be reduced about 100 per
cent. In other words the man who
now gets $3.50 a day under the
.epublican protective tariff policy
would get only $1.OO under Profess
sor Wilson's free trade doctrine.
This represents the difference be-
tween the wages paid in the
United States and those paid in
treat Britain, as learned in an
own statisticians, a committee APP
pointed by the British Board of
Investigation of Great Britain's
trade to make such investigation.
Do the workingmen of this cOun-
try want such a condition as this?

Why the Farmer Will Vote for Taft

This is an actual occurrence in
this city last week:
A Divide farmer had come to
town to sell some hogs. A friend
said to him:
"what price did you get for
them"
81 got ~ cents" said the farm
er.
After a while the conversation
drifted to politics and someone re-
marked to the Divide man:
We'll. l suppose you will vote
for Wilson,"
vote for Wilson. with hogs at
IL cents; not much"
The gist of this story really
presents the political situation in
a nutshell. The farmer is getting
higher prices for his product: the
mechanic is getting good prices for
his work; the laborer is receiving
adequate compensation. and steady
work; the merchant is busy.
The Democratic party thinks 1t
will curry favor with the voter
by talking about reducing prices
But it says nothing about the re-
duction. in wages which will inev-
itably follow. Low prices in food
stuffs mean low prices all down the
Inc, including wages.
No farmer or wage Garner will
gain anything by voting low tar.

Wilson Seeks Financial Aid Abroad
-WhS7

Professor Wilson has asked the
for financial aid for his campaign.
More than this, according to 1.-THE
Daily Province" Vancouver. b. c..
of October 5, 1912, in his letter of
ers, sent out under the name of
the Wilson and Marshal League.
Is a statement that a complete rec
ord will be kept of those who help
to make the great democratic vic
tory certain.
Mark you that, every workingmaI
and business man in this country.
Why has Professor Wilson gone
to England for financial help and
why is this record of British con-
tributions to be kept?
1t means that in return for this
financial assistance Professor VIII

bars which shield American work
ingmen and their families against
SIdTEdllOn NdSCS PC'NAsS
which protect our industries and en-
able the workingman to earn
wage in keeping with fit station
in life.
In return for this financial as
sistance the British manufacturer Is
going to be permitted to send his
goods manufactured by cheaply
paid labor into this country free
of duty to compete with goods made
by the higher paid American work
ingman.

attempts to make it appear that

Dell Potter was in town Sunday,
returning from Washington, where
he had been attending The god roads
convention. He says congress las
gone crazy on the good roads bust
ness, and while the convention wasin
session more than an hundred good
roads bills introduced in congress.
The congressman did not know what
they wanted, nor what was needed,
but they saw the way the good roads
business vas going, and they wanted
to get in the push, and have their
names attached to a good roads bill,
and so would write out any kind of a
bill, introduce 1t, and it would be re-
ferred to the committee on agricul-
ture, and when any bill is passed
each one Of them will claim 1t came
from the bin he introduced, with
some alterations by the committee.
The probable result of the meeting
will be a bill providing for an ocean
to ocean road to be built by the gov
eminent and the states, each paying
about half the expense. There will
also be bills passed for building roads
in the forest reserves, the military
reserves and the Indian reservations
by the government. The states and
the counties cannot go on to these
reservations, and roads are needed on
them, especially the forests, so that
fire fighters can get in, and matured
timber can be moved out, and the
only who car build these roads is
the government, and congress will
undoubtedly provide for them, as they
are asked for by the official in charge
of each different class Of reservation.
Mr.. Potter was greatly pleased with
the results accomplished by the con-
vention.

Things are beginning to move at
Stems, under the pushing Of Jack
Davis. A townslte has been surveyed,
and Monday he had fifteen men at

gulch that leads up to the old Batch

possession Of the Bachelor, and has
put men at work on IL, taking out IS
ore, which, owing to its high silica
contents, is a shipping ore. In the
eighties ores we're shipped from the
Bachelor that netted more than a
thousand dollars to the car with a
high penalty on the silica, The Ell

critics, four miles north of Stems.
They are running two tunnels. The
south tunnel has a six foot breast Of
ore that assays s26 in gold and 8 ounc.

which has a breast of five feet, all

is now figured out that II the Mexi-
