ID LIE DAD L REOE
New York, Dec. 3O.-The lat
est trade to crop,u in this great
American metropolis is in babies.
1t is quite an extensive trade
so extensive that babies are quite
cheap. If you aren't too particu-
lar about the color of the hair or
eyes or fairness of the infant you
can get one for So. If you are par
ticular it will probably cost about
$40.
This interesting state of af-
fairs was disclosed through an in
vestigation into the activities of
one Mrs. Dora Remmlin, widow.
Mrs. Remmlin readily admitted
that she traded in babies.
Business isn't as good as it
might be right now" she said,
pensively. 81 guess that is be
cause of the high cost of living.
The supply is far greater than the
demand. It's lowering prices like
anything.
Mrs. Remmlin was asked how.
she got her babies.
"Oh, I get them in various
ways" she said. Some of them
I get from mothers. of large fami-
lies who haven't time nor the
room for their latest. Some Of
them I get from infant asyIums
and homes.
Then | have lines out to GER
tain hospitals, and it is possible
for me to get ababy of any age,
from ten minutes up, in a few
minutes.

cuIiar?" she was asked.
ooh, I don't know" she said.
There are hundreds of women
lin the same business in New
York. Some of them engage in
the side line of lending out babies
for blackmailing purposes.
Anyhow, it isn't against the
law. l looked that up. There is
the law against the sale or pur-
chase of human beings, of course,
but I don't sell the babies. l get
my fee for my trouble in procur-
ing it to order am very careful
about that"
Where does the demand for
babies come from?" the woman
was asked.
'sChiefy from wives who wish
to-foist a baby on unsuspecting
husbands without going to the
trouble OF having one.
Mrs. Remmlin lives in three
rooms of a tenement house. One
of the rooms has been turned into
a nursery for the "fattening up"
process. The baby merchant is
quite satisfied with herself.
The health department was
asked if it intended doing any
thing in the case.
Nc" said .aR official. We've
been watching the woman. She is
quite competent to nurse the
babies while they are under her
care. We cannot interfere with
her"

FAVoRs ~. VIA DICKINSON

We hear that our suggestion to build
q railroad from Manning to Mott,
through Dickinson, is greatly favored
in the city to the north, ana that Edi-
tor Jenkins personally endorses the
proposition. If this is the case we IN
not understand why the Dunn County
News has been SO p%ersistently silent on
the subject. Surely personal prejudice
is not q DISQUALIFICATION Recorder.

Your hearing is good, Brother Whaley ;
the News built this same piece of road
(on paper more than three years ago.
but for some reason or other the rail-
road people have not as yet zen ct to.

we asked too much, as we expected the
line to 60 on through to connect with
the Great Northern. But it's certainly
an injustice to say that personal
prejudice" is a factor. when we have
been ''squatting" twenty-five miles
from a railroad for the past four years
waiting for something to turn up in rail-
road building. We will not object to
railroad connections at any time-even
with Dickinson. This agitation from
the Recorder-Post comes at q very OPP

DEAN earl ]. BABc0ck

When a great state relies for the
foundations of its prosperity on a few
kinds of agricultural products only its
growth and development are sure to be
subject to great fluctuations due to con-
ditions of climate. soil. crops and
markets. North Dakota is pretty we'll
convinced on this topic after the exper-
fence of the past two seasons. But in
a state Astounding in diversified indus
tries there is q much more uniform and
substantial development, for if condi-
lions are unfavorable any yea to a par
ticular industry there are other indus
tries which will be but slightly affected,
or perhaps not at all. The diversity of
industries r as the balance wheel,
preventing serious disturbance in bust
ness conditions. We have not yet Grown
used to thinking of our own state as a
great industrial state and a state of
diversified industries, chiefly because
we are in almost entire ignorance as to
its possibilities. Dean Earl j. Babcock
of the School of Mines at the State
University will give us all som real
food for thought in his lecture on ''Our
Undeveloped Resources" which is to
be given at the high school under the
auspices of the Dickinson high school
next Thursday evening. The lecture
will be illustrated and supplemented
with several interesting demonstra-
tions.
