A BUSINESS CABINET.

The TENDERS of the commercial
clubs of North Dakota-and especially
those of the state association will be
greatly interested in the meeting to
be held in Washington next month.
At the call Of President Taft
through the department Of commerce
and labor-a delegate convention of
1000 Of the commercial clubs of the
country is to meet there, April 10.
The result will be as it is expected
a national federation of commercial
clubs.
The president hopes from this t eff
feet a consolidation of the non parti-
san public opinion of business men.
He looks to this organization t o serve
as a medium for the expression OF
such opinion as to national affairs.
Because bipartisan and because
recommended by Mr.. Taft in a message
to congress last December-this cannot
be considered a political move.
Such a body-with definite but
broad powers recognized by federal
charter, thus impressing responsibility
and acting without partisan bias
would be immensely valuable. Labor
now has an organization in the Fed
Grafton of Labor-and business should
have one.
1t raj Speaker Clark who said that
81 per cent of the legislation proposed
for congressional action was Of a
purely business character and should
be treated as such. The trouble lie
that it is not so treated. The trouble
is that it is played wit! as a chessmar
Ito court political capital.
A national organization Of business
men could do much to cure this con.
dition. If, for example, it should EN-.
phatically favor a tariff commission
with revision of schedules only upor
its reeommendation-that would b
exceedingly effective. II it should EN-.
phatically endorse postal telegraph
federal license for "big business" SUI.
pervision Of capitalization or an.
other purely business project-its &C,
ton would have great weight. /
would have equal weight if it shouIc
oppose such measures.

The ~spsIIbindsr

The SpeIlbinder.
His voice is gently pleading as to
tone
And epigrams roll blithely from his
tongue,
He tells some merry stories of his
own,
That Henry VIII. enjoyed when he
was young;
The opposition's arguments he chokes,
The rival candidate he loves to
whack
BY handing out side splitting quips
and jokes
From Doc. Hostetter's Family AL
manac.
His argument is terse and to the
point,
He asks: why Toes a chicken cross
the street,"
His hearers laugh themselves all out
joint,
And say he won a victory complete.
His first joke makes the enemy look
sick,
His second starts the foe upon the
run.
His third joke sends them going
double-quick,
His fourth one sees the party's bat
tie won.
How will the trusts be wiped out
from the map?
I'll tell you" Then a joke comes
without fail,
"You ask me how about the noxioui
Jap?
ITS this way" then he tells another
tale.
"When will we fix the tariff? Ah!'
says he,
That's easy. Listen well and yor
shall hear
He tells a funny story. then with glee
One that we heard in vaudeville las
year.
He works up to his climax swift ant
sure,
And mops his fevered brow ant
swings his arms
THAT mighty nations certain to en-,
dure
Throughout the ages, free from i'll
and hafm.
The audience then gives q ronsinl
cheer,
The band plays and the people leav
the hall;
on what they've heard they're not ex
actiy clear
But twas . rafting good speed
after all
