O. The Story
OTOYV OF the Lion
In the SKY
In the SKY

JACK and Eveyn were always interested IN stories about the stars.
Il told Won before" began daddy, that every month the sun rolls
through . group Of stars that has an odd name In July Y y IN the
~ group OF stars known as the hOn.s
"0nce there grew up ia Greece "a lad Of great strength and cleverness named
Hercules. One Of the wonderful things he did was to choke to death with his
infant hands two serpents that tried to kill him In bis cradle. AS he grew
older he became stronger, and he was 80 coed natured that he was always
trying to help those about him. J.
But after awhile Hercules came into the power o. . wicked king, who set
him all sorts Of hard tasks.
"The drt OF these was to kin a newe lion which had been frightening and
killing the people IN q valley called Nemea.
Hercules took the big club, which was so heavy that no one else could
handle it, and his big bow that no one else could bend
when he came to the wild, lonely valley OF Nemea the hon, which hap
pened to be very hungry, came ont to meet Hercules All the people had moved
out OF that part OF the country because they were so afraid OF the lion, 50 II
was hard for the animal to get q meal
Hercules stepped bnskly up and, fitting an arrow to his bow, sent II
straight at the lions head, but the brutes skin was so thick that the sharp
point could not pierce it. Hercules tried arrow after arrow, hoping that at last
he might find a tender spot
when the last arrow WIS gone he picked up his club and as the lion drew
the lions thick name and fn 70 the ground. Hercules had then only his own
strong hands with which to fight
he grasped the snarnng hon BY the throat and. using all his strength
soon stranged the brute
Hercules started home with the lions skin thrown over his shoulder
When he entered the town where he lived the people and the wicked king
were frightened. They thought the Nemean lion itself had con to attack
them Instead OF pEaisng Hercules for what he had done the king ordered
him after that not TO enter the city untl he had permission
"But the people were so pleased with this wonderful service which Her
cules had done them that they named a group Of stars the lion, and % it has
been called ever since, and in July the sun enters the space In the sky where
the lion group is found"

Press Comment

Devils Lake World: Elsewhere in
this issue of The World appears a call
for a third party mass convention to
De held in the city of Fargo next Fri
vention, as outlined in the call, is to
elect five delegates TO the national
convention to be held at Chicago. Aug.
O. and to place in nomination candi-
oates for the various state offices to be
hlled at the general election to be held
next November. The third party move
ment fs essentially a Roosevelt move
ment, inasmuch as Roosevelt will be
the head and front of the third party IL
such a party is organized. Nobody else
could by any possibility be chosen TO
lead Inc movement. The fight In the
republican national convention was
squarely between Roosevelt and Taft.
LaFollette developed no strength. Mel
Their did Cummins. Reasoning along
this line it is clear that the third par
ty organizers In North Dakota must,
perforce, be Roosevelt sympathizers
and supporters. The World was the
first newspaper in the state to sug-
gest Roosevelt as the proper man to
be nominated by the republican party
for president, and IL fought for him
all through the campaign. Incident
ally II took a licking, and we hope took
1t gracefully. But some, many OF the
men who nave signed the call for the
convention which is to be held at Far
60, supported Bob LaFollette and ev-
erything that Bob LaFollette stood
FOR. In this third party movement Mr..
LaFollette can a. no place as he, or
at least his most influential friends In
Wisconsin, have already declared for
the democratic candidate, Wilson.
This being true, the question naturally
arises as to just where the LaFollette.
men who will attsTd the convention
are going to light. 1t Is a foregone
conclusion that Roosevelt will be NOM
mated, for president at the Chicago
convention, in act it is altogether
probable that no other name than his
will be presented TO the convention, as
he is the only man who has even a
ghost of a show to carry the country
against Taft and Wilson. C~onceding
this Ii at once becomes apparent that
there will be nothing left for the North
Dakota third party to 40 but endorse
l.. b. Hanna and the whole list of re-
publican nominees for state ONCE, and
we believe that this is Just what will
be done. Why2 Because Roosevelt is
recognized as the n great progressive
L. B. Hanna was progressive enough to
help carry the state for Roosevelt and
to organize Roosevelt clubs in various
parts of 1T. Tt will be impossible to
turn him down and still have a third
party in this state supporting Roose-
welt for president. The balance re the
republican state ticket supported La
Toilette, who is Just now in the emo
cratic camp or else on the fence. These
men are progressive republicans also.
Are they to be read out Of the party?
Nobody believes that any such course
will be followed. The only remaining
course, then, is to endorse the whole
republican state ticket

WILSON is LUCKY.

Woodrow Wilson Is a fortunate i'm
dividuaL. That he was born under a
lucky star Ia generally conceded. The
times appear I have been made for
him.
With the internal dissensions in the
republican party-the democrats ex-
press the utmost confidence in Will
sons election. The republicans re-
l~uctantly admit the possibility.
There are few students of politics
who would concede Wilson a chance
for the presidency-if the republican
conditions were normal. What chance
would he have stood four or eight
years ago? Could he have polled the
vote at the last election which went
to Bryan? Few people will be willing
to concede IT,
He ran for governor at a time when
things were made easy for him. In
almost any year in the last decade ne
would have been badly defeated for
the am position. With defeat, his
public career might have been alb
ruptly ended.
Take his nomination for the presi-
dency. He went into the convention
with less support than Champ Clark
yet his ~proverbiaI luck chung to him.
In the primary states where he con-
tested for the delegates Clark led him
by 2oO,oo0-yet Wilson won over the
man who was more popular with the
rank and file OF the voters.
He is expected to win this faIl-not
through either his personal ability or
popularity--but negatively through
the row in the republican camp. He
is no popular idol. He is no hail fell
low-well-met. In fact he lacks Taft's
geniality and smile.
Even among the democrats he is re-
sarded as the chiIliest proposition in
public life. His nomination was
forced by Bryan's dominance Of the
convention-not from his popularity.

PATENT CRAFTS.

Congressman Hanna started out
some months ago to modernize the
present federal patent laws. They are
ancient and crude and need remodel
Ang. One feature permits p~atentees
to dictate to purchasers the use of
certain things-and this creates a. mo-
nopoly for which the public must pay
toll.
Their is another abuse Just as bad.
Many m~anufacturers purchase new
patents along their lines of business,
place them in cold storage, and they
are never heard of. This is done to
prevent competitors from using them
and breaking up their monopoly. This
is charged especially against the shoe
trust.
The same is true OF new patents on
telephones. 1t is claimed that there
are inventions which, if in use, would
make the present instruments look
like a child's toy-but the trust won't
permit the use because the installation
would cost vast sums. The public is
prevented from enjoying the advan-
tages OF the new inventions.
It is proposed to change the laws so
that unused patents shall become pub
Tic property after a much shorter Pc
Rod than now. Some people advocate
five years, others say three is sufic-
iently long.
