GET T THE FLIES.

Within a few days at most, the flies,
in this part of the country, will come
out of their winter Information. That
will be the time to begin vigorous and
relentless warfare on them.
Those who have not yet become in
terested in the anti-fy crusade insti-
tuted by the municipal government
should ponder over an official state
ment recently made by L. o. Howard,
the entomologist of the federal de-
partment of agriculture. He estimates
that a female fly that has survived the
winter and begins the season in April
by laying 12O g will become the
progenitor, by September of no less
than $685. 100000 adult flies
providing none are killed.
So, swat the flies early and often.
Better yet, clean up the foul spots
which are their natural breeding
places.

juror for the May term Of municipal
court, and appeared before the clerk
Of the court this morning, expressing
a willingness to serve provided a slight
deafness did not bar him. Williams is
active despite his advanced years, and
appeared to be more capable than the
average juror to decide questions at
litigation. He is a native of England
and served twenty-eigh years as a
sailor. He remembers seeing Haley's
comet seventy-five years ago, and
spoke proudly of his youngest boy
who is only 60 years old, but doing
well in Michigan, where he resides,

20, who. he boosted to Judge Crane
of the municipal court, ''sells all the

Fargoans were greatly interested in
the life Of DR.. D. K. Pearsons of Chi
cago, who recently passed away.
There was a personal feeling in the
matter because of the fact Fargo col
lege had been a beneficiary of his phil
a~nthropy. Fargo college, in common
with many other institutions of learn
ing, had p~rofted by DR.. P~earsons' wide
interest in educational work and his
thorough belief in the smaller colleges.
The Chicago Record-Herald Of sun
day had the following editorial com
naent on the passing of the phiIanthro-
pIst:
Chicago's unique millionaire and phi
l~anthropist, DR.. Pearsons, has passed

93rd year even a slight attack of pneu-
monia is dangerous, and to DIR. Pear

vigorous in mind and body, it unfor-
tunateIy proved fatal. But to few
indeed is it given to reach so advanced
an age, and DIR. Pearsons' beneficiaries,

noble and beautiful life which has end

Press Comment

Bismarck Tribune: Since the as
SCISSORS assumed their duties in North
Dakota there has arisen considerable
complaint regarding the registration
and enrolment of party affiliations OF
voters by these officials.
1t is true that unless a voter reg
listers with the assessor he an not
cast a ballot at the June primaries,
nor can he vote a primary ballot OF
any other party than the one with
which he swears he is affiliated. The
law is a good one, and tends to draw
those lines eaf party distinction, the
lack of which have made primary
elections in North Dakota in months
past naught but a ~burlesque general
election.
Under the law, the constitutionality
of which was upheld by the supreme
court of North Dakota, it is not pos
sible for a democrat to receive a
republican primary ballot unless he
swears to the assessor that he is a
republican. Nor can a republican Sc
cure a democratic primary ballot I'M
less he sweaTs to the assessor that he
is a democrat. Few men there are
who will commit perjury of this ma
ture.
The assessors registration law is a
step forward toward making the pri-
mary election system in North Dakota
a success. But complaints r being
heard from all over the state from
men, presumably, who dislike the
restraint imposed upon them. Strange
to relate, the onslaught against this
law is led by progressives and demo-
Gratis. This seems doubly strange
when one considers the history of this
act.
On Tuesday, Jan. 81, 1911, Hon. G. E.
Davidson of Portal, a representative
from the Forty-third district, intro
duced house bill No. 259, "a bill for an
act providing for the nomination OF
candidates by popular vote at a pri-
mary election, and the registration
and enrolment of party utilization" in
the house of representatives. The bill
was referred to the committee on cleo
tions and privileges, and was reported
back to the house Wednesday, March
/, with a few amendments and the
recommendation that it do pass. II
was passed. 1t was transmitted to the
senate, where it was slightly amend
ed, and received back in the house
Friday, March 8. 1t was passed by
the house in its form as amended By
the senate on this same day.
The progressives are complaining
about the provisions Of the registra,
ton law. Yet Mr.. Davidson, the au.
thor of the measure, is a progressive
the measure was passed by an insur.
gent house and senate. and later, wal
signed by a democratic governor
Wailing and lamentation in the insur,
gent camps because voters have Il
register their party affiliation with tn,
assessor is certainly unseemly wheel
one considers that the law is one 0
their own making.

Socialist ArrAsfad.

Aberdeen, S. D., April 30.-Albert
Allen of Minneapolis, a socialist speak
er, was arrested on Sunday evening
for obstructing the streets, Allen hav-
ing delivered a socialist address
which attracted a good sized crowd,
and which blockaded a part of Main
street and led to his arrest after an
officer had given him five minutes in
which to finish his remarks, which
he extended to twenty minutes and he
displayed no intention Of stopping.
Allen acted as his own lawyer. and
pleaded the constitutional provision
guaranteeing freedom Of speech, but
the municipal court held that the privi-
lege did not prohibit the enforcement
of the city ordinance against block
aiding streets and sidewalks and fined
him SIS or three days in Jail. Allen
appealed to the circuit court, and an
nounced he would hold another meet
ing at the same time and place next
Sunday evening.
