rise from these radical periods of pros
perity and intense speculation, on the
one hand, and of miserable depression,
on the other, which only a young but
superior commercial and military
democracy, with no appreciation or
application of the principles of fin
ance, could experience. The Difficult
ties were chiefly offset by the con
quest of new treasure and by its i'm
perialistic expressions. In India to-
day we find a people to whom the
value of money, as such, is but a
vague comprehension; boarding takes
the place of banking.
With the rapid establishment of in
dustrial and commercial relations in
China, without a correspondingly rapid
development of banking methods,
should come a more extensive use of
basic money. A period of r%eadjust-
ment to modern conditions will neces-
sarily be financed in a more or less
archaic manner. The speed of read
justment will depend largely upon the
extent of the assistance or interfer-
ences of foreign financiers, while the
amount of silver required will depend
upon the latter factor, as well as upon
the extent of the latent supplies in the
boards of the people. A great indus
trial awakening of the Far East is
certain to draw forth much of the ac-
cumulated treasures of CENTURIES
Mining cience.

EXTRA
"OLD GLORY" TRAMPLED

New York, May 2.-The Stars and
Stripes were torn down and trampled
under foot and the red flag substi-
tuted in a fierce fight at a May day
meeting of the Socialist party and
Industrial Workers of the World in
Union park late yesterday afternoon.
No panic ensued for the reason that
those in the outskirts of the crowd
did not know what was being done
until the fight was over.
Socialists disclaim the responsible
ity of tearing down the flag, stating
that it was done by the Industrial
Workers. The trouble started at the
conclusion of parade in which
about 5000 men and women had
been in line. They had gathered
about the speakers stand in the park
1t had already been decorated with
Socialist emblems and the red flag.
The band was playing the "Marseil-
les' when the Stars and Stripes were
carried to the stand. There was in
slant excitement.
f'Take that dirty rag down." shout
ed one. "We don't recognize that
flag" called a man from the crowd.
The flag was hauled down and
trampled upon, being finally rescued
by woman Socialist, Miss Caroline
Dexter. One policeman tried to in
terfere, but he was thrown bodily
over the railing of the speakers
stand.
The meeting finally proceeded with
nothing but red banners to decorate
the platform, but the program as ar
ranged by the Socialists was not car
ried out, most of the speakers COM
ing from the Industrial Workers.

SENIOR CLASS CLEARED $85.
Profits from Red Acre Farm Con.
sidered Satisfactory. -~

After paying all expenses incident
to the production of the "Red Acre
Farm at the city hall a few weeks
ago, the senior class of the High
school was able to show & balance on
the profit side of the ledger of sS5.
This money will be used to pay some
of the incident expenses of gradua-
ton, such as a class banquet, COM
mencement speaker, etc.
Professor Dyer is. having some
trouble securing speaker this year
as. the men available seem to have
formed trust for the purpose of
keeping up prices. He has been in
communication with a prominent
minister Of Minneapolis, but to date
has been unable to reach any agree
ment with him. It is possible that
the speaker finally brought will be
found from among the delegates at
tending the Methodist conference
now in session in Minneapolis. Com
mencement day will be May 81.
Asked how many would graduate
this year, Mr.. Dyer said, 81 can't say
what the number will be but there
are fourteen candidates.

ed through competitive essays, will
be given a week at the state fair in
September as the guest of the State
Agricultural society. The society
will pay railroad fare, board and
lodging for the week and see that
the boys are carefully guarded.
The plan is fully outlined in a let
ter which is being sent to the coun-
ty superintendent of schools

operation in the matter. The society
wishes to bring the boys in closer

of the state fair and has adopted this
method of getting the desired re-
suits.

the ages Of sixteen and nineteen aud
who lives on farm is eligible to en-
ter the essay contest, the subject for
which will be anncunced later. The
judges will be in each county, the
county superintendent, the chair
man of the county commissioners and.
one other who will be chosen by the
State Agricultural society, e. c. Hig-
bic will have direct charge of the
boys camp and will be aided by men
from the agricultural institutions of
the state and the State Young Mems
Christian association.
The plan involves the following
provisions:
1. One boy will be selected from
each county through the submission
of a competitive essay.
2. Railroad fare, board and lodg-
ing for the week will be paid by the
State Agricultural society.
3. The boys will be carefully SUI
pervised and guarded through the
week.
4. Only boys who are bona fide
residents upon farm and are be-
tween the ages of sixteen and nine
teen will be accepted.
5. Special lectures on corn, seed.
grains, livestock and farm machine
ry will be part of each days pro-
gram.
6. Opportunity to inspect the
splendid educational features of the
fair will be part of the work
Z. Each boy will be allowed to
usher, in turn, in the grand stand
and in the livestock pavilion This
will give him opportunity to witness
all the special features before the
grand stand and also be in close
touch with the Judging work among
the stock
W. B. Stewart, county superin-
tendent for Beltrami county, is TAX
ing this work up with teachers

of the county commissioners to set

More About Parcels Post

About the parcels post we are
not inclined to dispute. Yet we
want TO see it studied out fur
Their than seems to have been
done and to know it more than
we or anybody else seems 20
know. We would like to under
stand more clearly what and
who is behind it and to trace a
little further what the effects
and consequences would be.
Would it help or break the coun-
try merchant and the retail mer-
chants IN the cities? Both these
are useful and convenient in
situations for the people and
we would dislike to see them
destroyed. If they were de-
stroy ed what would become Of
the wholesale merchants and
jobbers of cities like Roanoke
for instance? If these had no
country merchants to whom to
sell their goods would they not
be forced to close and to throw
on the market quantity of new
labor seeking employment and
most of it trained only to a de-
stroyed business?
We have been hearing a long
time of clearing out the middle
mantle merchant and having
the people deal direct with the
manufacturer, thereby savig the
middle mans profit. AS a prac-
tical fact, the merchants profit,
or a large part of it, is his charge
for convenience and for credit.
Just like the bankers charge
of interest for the use of his
money. This. of course. leads
us to a large field and opens up
the big principles of socialism
and cooperation, on which vol
umes have been written and
volumes will be written. But

teal effects of the parcels post.

trade of the local merchant to

We do not want to destroy
