IN THE couNTRI.

Many city toilers who are broken i n
health and purse might find happiness
in the country-were they willing to
abandon old associations and try
farm labor.
An exchange publishes a letter from
a man now working in the country
for $40 a month and saving money
who says he was unable to save a cent
while living in the city and receiving
800 a month.
AS a hired man on a farm this
former city clerk has found greater
freedom than he ever knew before.
With hogs and horses and cows to at
tend to, in addition to work in the
fields-this man says he labors from
5 in the morning until 8 at night. He
is far happier than he ever was cooped
up in a city Office from s until flor
he has found health nj a hearty ap-
petite and plenty of plain food which
keeps him strong and equal to his
tasks.
This city man is probably an excep-
ton. He is a philosopher n a inan-
cier combined, and probably was new
er really intended to be born in a city.
He is fond of stock and must be a
nature lover. Most city men-who
have never lived in the country but
are compelled to flee to it for health or
because Of financial ~disaster-do not
accept their new life in the proper
spirit.
Back to the farm" is the familiar
cry. 1t is heard on all hands. The
great movement for the improvement
of social life in the country will prob
ably make it possible for many city
men n women to realize some Of
their life dreams in the open country.

consider 1t seriously, and put int
thing on the statute books in a digni-
fed way. The present situation is
impossible. If the proposed scheme Of
evasion succeeds. it will almost inev-
itably result in a m~isshapen measure
which will subsequently have to be
modified and viii in the meantime
prove unsatisfactory or perhaps be
worse than nothing. The canal ques-
ton is not only a complex issue which
calls for expert analysis, but 1t involves
questions of policy that are dependent
upon the position of the two political
parties and must therefore be ultimate
ly referred to a ballot on the floor in
order to obtain a final answer. From
every standpoint, commercial, econom-
ic and political, there is imperative
need for the immediate opening of a
thoughtful public discussion of the
Panama canal question, with a view to
the adoption of a well framed piece of
legislation, fixing the tolls and determ-
lining the conditions under which ves-
sells of all classes shall be permitted to
use the new waterway.

in the qualifications and titles of the
men in charge are necessary. An ex-
pert chemist and operator Is now re-
CURED to properly conduct the Ultra

be no necessity for the official formerly
known as the Observation-Disclosures
he can also be the chemist. 1t is prob

sary changes in the ordinance to meet
the conditions that have arisen by the
establishment of the filtration system.

Daddy's Bedtime

Green Hat

windows were away up. Jack and Evelyn had begged it. when they
started for bed
1--WE want to snr the nice smell Of the little wild flowers before
we so to Sleep and then maybe we will dream abeut them" they had
said to daddy.
Daddy smiled The woods we're nearly a mile away. Unless some friendly
little breeze ran in with Whit Of flower fragrance 1t seemed unlikely that the
children would be able TO thus dream OF the flowers
Where the woods are dark and moist" daddy began, "there once lived q
little green plant one OF the first flowers that come to us in the spfngime
1t was not slender and graceful like the anemOne, nor dressed in gayiy dap
pied leaves like the adders tongue, no fragrant and lovely like the violet or
arbutus The little plant rose straight and gaunt from the dark earth, three
triangular leaves on its head, and when the other little plants began to put on
their spring bonnets the plant was still plain and green.
"I should feel ashamed to lift my head IL i couldn't have spring hat like
every one else' the boodroot murmured as the wind stirred his waxen petals
And the other flowers Haunted their gay cOlors happily in the sunshine.
by and by came boys and girls with baskets, and many of the pretty
flowers lost their heads, and those who were left did their best to hide their
nnery when they heard human feet coming.
1.-THE little plant by the brook had grown a green shenlke covering to
shield the nower that was all he had to add to the beauty Of springuke woods
And now a strange thing happened The winged creatures Of the woods
came in swarms. They Owed deep into the shell Of the little plant to feed
on the delicious stores hidden there, for, though he wore n gorgeous hnery to
attract notice the heart Of the flower was sweet and full Of honey and the
little wood creatures who feed n the plants knew this and passed by the more
snowy yet less satisfying blossoms
"And one day the fairy queen came by. All the flowers stood straight and
still to receive her.
"But she passed them by She stopped beside the little green plant by the
brook, and the bees and butterflies and wood flies buzzed their approval
Little JackinthePupt said she, you have done well. 1t is not always
by gay clothes that we may judge. You have been modest You have been
kind. Yu have fed the hungry when your neghbors thought only Of eaudy
6nery Little Jackfnthe-PupfL when autumn comes you shall wear a scarlet
cap And so It'll when the woods grow cold you will see JackinthePuluit a
cardinal wearing a crown Of scarlet" 4#

IcEsERes.

What are icebergs? Where do they
come from? What causes them?
These questions have been asked
since the destruction of the Titanic by
the gigantic iceberg-which many of
the survivors Of the disaster have de-
scribed as being 100 feet above the wa
ter level.
All the icebergs in the North Allan
tic come from the plateaus and noun
tain ranges of Greenland. Glaciers, or
great mountains of ice form in the
mountain valleys and gradually slide
toward the sea. After these great ice
masses protrude partly into the water
sections Of them break off and float
away into the ocean.

Harvey Herald: 1t will be noted
that at the meeting of the progressive
republicans in Fargo last week, the
pseudo slate making that was perpe-
trated at the winter meeting of the
same body, was not put through, al
though there was an ~incipient attempt.
In ~refraining from this Objectionable
feature, they displayed a keen sense of
justice and wisdom, leaving the field
unsullied by the obnoxious brand of
gangism that even they nave so freely
criticized in the "old guard"
1t is as it should be. Not only
would it have been an evidence of bad
faith and i%nsincerity to have COM
bined into this Objectionable "slate
making" but it would have proven a
boomerang to the cause of progress
siyeism by setting at naught one of
the very principles they are supposed
to Champion free choice by the
voters at the primaries.
1t is certainly not the province of
any set Of men to dictate who shall
become a candidate, or just who the
voters are to be permitted to vote for,
and to attempt to force any such gag
onto any district or state, is to revert
to one of the worst types Of ~log-rolling
ever foisted in the annals of politics.
Naturally there are those who, in the
aggravated period of their itch for Of
hce will endeavor to snuff the candle
of some feared and worthy opponent
in this manner, but it is an injustice,
not only to IN other aspirant, but to
the voters themselves, to receive the
free expression Of whom the primary
laws are expressly formed.
Again-not only is it manifestly un-
fair, but it is not legal. A late ruling
by the attorney general says that any
combination Of candidates to get into
office is Illegal both in spirit and In
letter Of the primary law. In the past,
and to some extent in the present time,
there is more or less of this combining
and slate making, and the sooner the
honest and sincere progressive people
refuse to allow some of the old time
politicians to whip them around the
stump into their camp of gangism en-
dorsements, the sooner will the tri-
umph of the progressive cause be
complete.

rupt practice act that makes it neces-
sary for voters to register their polit-
ical Affiliations in order to vote at the
June primary. From u point Of view
it doesn't seem fair that men OF every
political Faith should jump into the
fray and help nominate the republican
ticket If there is a republican nomi-
mated at the primary that does not
suit YOU, there is nothing in this act
to prevent you voting for somebody
else at the November election. TO us
this part of the corrupt practice act
should have been put into the primary
law at the time of it's enactment-and
we are no stalwart either.
