E UP THIS WEEK.

The Billy Sunday revival meetings
begin in Fargo within q few days. The
advocates of the revivalist predict
there will be hundreds of visitors here
from all sections of the state. If this
is true, it is up to Fargo t o present a
neat appearance for the visitors. The
streets and alleys should be cleared
up and the accumulation of the winter
months removed from the business
and residence districts.
Fargo should make every effort to
be as attractive as possible to visitors.
Every property owner-regardless of
whether he favors or opposes Sunday
will naturally have sufficient pride in
the city to want Fargo to make as
good an appearance as possible.
Now is the time to clean up. Do it
this week and have Fargo looking neat
and attractive before Sunday arrives.

cRoP PROSPECTS.

In an editorial on the crop pros
poets, The Minneapolis Tribune re-
Gently had the following:
Northwestern farmers have started
to SOW the 1912 crops. Seeding is not
general and it is not likely to be for a
week or ten days yet even if the
weather is propitious. The reports of
field work, however, tell the grain
trade that a new harvest is beginning
and as there are ample supplies of
wheat in sight there has been a weak
ening tendency in wheat prices.
For the first time in two years the
spring sown grains will have a favor
able start. Soil conditions could not
be better for the termination Of the
seeds and the reserve moisture in the
soil should be sufficient to carry the
plants to the period of the early june
rains. The only problem ~confronting
the northwest is the quality Of the
seed. The small grain crops have not
graded high, especially wheat, and as
good seed is hard to obtain and rath-
en- costly it is probable that much in
ferior grain will be used.
considerable advantage, however
will be gained by the initial develop
ment of the plants. The top soil Is

this should prevent a growth too near
the surface and insure deep rootage,
which will give a healthy stand when
the heat of midsummer sweeps over
the fields.
While the spring wheat farmer is
sowing his crops. the winter wheat
section grower is beginning to see how
his crop has wintered. There have
been q number Of unfavorable reports
from this area, but with the advent of
warmer weather the tendency has been
to modify the apprehension as the re-
sponses to the more genial tempera-
lures has revealed considerable latent
vitality in the plants.
The only area of probable damage is
in the soft winter states east of the
Mississippi river. The severe cold
early in the year undoubtedly killed
some wheat and the condition in this
section is low. In the hard wheat
states, however, the outlook is very
promising and already Kansas is pre-
dieting a record harvest.

FAR.REAcHINe OPINION.

The ONCE of the attorney general is
Of the opinion that the new law re-
quiring tn township assessors to take
the political preferences and affiliations
of taxpayers IS unconstitutional. In
some counties the officials-relying on
this opinion-will disregard the law
and instruct assessors to proceed with
their other duties and forget the politi-
cal registration feature.
1t is reported that Attorney Greene
OF Minot will institute an action to
test sr~ constitutionality Of the law be-
fore the supreme court-rather than
rely alone on the opinion from the at
torney generals Office.
1t is quite possible the members of
the supreme bench might take the
same view as that held by the attor-
ney general-but their ruling will have
the advantage, at least, Of being final.
OF course if the registration fea-
lures Of the new law are knocked out
there is nothing whatever to prevent
democrats from voting republican
tickets-and republicans from voting
democratic tickets. The effort to sepa-
rate the sheep from the goats, polite
ally, will be entirely nullifed.
If this phase Of the effort to regulate
the methods of registration is uncon-
Stitutional-what Of the entire pri-
mary system? Is the primary law a
chain any stronger than one Of its
links? 1t appears to The Forum that

Of one of the enactments regarding the
methods Of registering and voting

tions-it is certainly necessary that
some method should be devised to

Of the other. If parties are to be elm
mated and DISQUALIFICATION why
