Never Again.
The poets sing
OF gentle spring
In language that is rich,
They hang a bluff
And sell the stun
To magazines and SIGH.
The rave and shout
And rhyme about
The fragrance Of the air
And of the joy
Without alloy
That fingers everywhere.
But when it SHOWS
An rains and blows
And does a dozen stunts
With hail and sleet
And lightning sheet
And does 'em all at once;
When nature drops
And deity ficps
A back handed somersaults,
/ think right now
You will allow
It's time to call a halt.
My Tyre is still
And never will
Twang for you as of yore.
Oh, gentle spring,
You tickle thing,
I'll boost your game no more.

MONDAY. MARCH 1s, 1912.
wlLEY,s SUCCESSOR.

There are many people in North
Dakota who would be extremely
nleased to see Pure Food Commission
err L,add of this state appointed chief
chemist Of the department of agrt-
culture in washington-charged with
the enforcement of the national pure
food The question of the selec-
ton of a successor to DR.. Wiley means
a great deal to the people Of the Unit
ed states-and everyone has conf
n in DR.. Ladd. 1t is understood
however that the Fargoan would not
even entertain such a proposition were
il offered to him unsoughts
The next most available chemist ap-
pears to be DR.. Bigelow, now assistant
He il the man who seems to hold the
confidence of the American public and
for years he has been the right hand
man of DR.. Wiley. While not as ag-
sressive as the official who has just re-
signed. DR.. Bigelow has the reputation
of being well qualified for the posi-
ton. He Ia honest, and enthusiastic
in favor of the enforcement Of the pure
food laws, He is a good fighter in a
quiet way and has the nerve to stand
~ his opinions. - nationwide move
ment is reported to have been initial.
ed in his behalf by the pure food n
forcers ef the c. Intry.
The coterie of food, drug and whis-
ky adulterators finally made things so
unpleasant for DR.. Wiley that he re-
signed in disgust. Secretary Wilson
and Solicitor McCabe Of the depart
ment were the two most a~ntagonistic
fa~ctors-though some of Wiley's 9TH
err associates. especially On the Remsen
board ppear to have done everything
in their W to retard the enforce
ment Of the pure food law,
Now that Wiley has finally given up
the fight there is a strenuous effort
being made by the violators of the law
to secure a man of their own choosing
as chief chemist.
Many ugly rumors are in circulation.
One is to the effect that a proposition
was made to certain Taft supporters
that if the right man could be named
for the ~position-the Taft campaign
would be financed by the whisky, food
and drug adulterators.
No one believes for a moment that
Taft would consent to such a deal and
in their desperation the violators have
started another plan. 1t is a part of
their policy to get a few hundred sug-
gestions for the position-and. in the
confusion, finally recommend one OF
their pets for the place. .
Ordinarily the appointment is made
by the secretary of agriculture. This
time, however. it is the intention Of
President Taft to take personal charge
o. the selection.
There are many men of national
reputation who-apparently are well
lquaIihed for the position-but If
selected would not be active in the
enforcement Of the law and in a short
time the pure food easur would be
o dead letter. It's up to the advocates
OF pure food all yer the country to
urge Bigelow's selection and prevent
the country from being flooded with
impure foods. drugs and liquors. Bige-
low has the endorsement of DR.. Wiley
as well the other prominent fight
fers for the enforcement of the law.

Never knew a thing in school.

Have been studyin' up good.
Never reached the seventh grade.
Folks all said they were afraid
Hank would pan out mighty bad.
Ignorance, that was his fad,
Brother Elmer, he was bright,
Studied hard, both day and night.
Took the honors of his class,
Meier a doubt that he would pass.
Folks viewed Elmer with great pride.
He had all the great men tied,
They said he would reach the top,
Naught on earth could make hin
stop.
Somehow things seemed to go wrong
Hank grew rich ere very long,
Owned q trust and proudly sat
In the senate. calm and fat
Owned three autos and q yacht.
What he hankered for he got.
That's what happened to the fool.
Elmer? oh, he's teaching school.
