sPoILs OF OFFICE.

Congress is averse to passing legislation that
will cut off patronage in an election year. Can
didates promise jobs to half the voters in
their districts if they can mention few offices
that viii be at their disposal should they and
their party win next November That they can
not fulfill these pledges does not matter. The
votes will be counted first On federal Fbbs
pensions and the pork barrel - members depend
for reelection. and it is cruel to ask them to do
anything for the good of the public service the
reduction of taxes when they suffering from
the pangs of hunger for office
While good improvement has been made
in the consular service in the last six or seven
years, the public may have forgotten that this has
been due to presidential influence and not to the
law When the 1905 bill regulating the service
was passed. Congress very carefully though
quietly. cut ont the original bill the civil service
clauses which would have taken it out of politics
President Taft has done his utmost to get Con
gress to pass the necessary amendments and bill
to that effect is before the House of Repre-
sentatiyes As of old it is being quietly choked
to death with little noise as possible
As far as election purposes go the consular ser
vice is still part of the spoils system It is true
that if President Taft is returned to office he
will block the payment of election debts by re-
fusing to nominate the heelers who have been
promised jobs in nice climates where fishing
is good; but this is only makeshift way of
purifying the service which might break down
whenever another man reaches the White House
Wilbur j Carr director of the consular ser
vice. told the House committee recently that the
tendency at the beginning of a new administra-
ton is to bring to bear upon the president such
an amount of political pressure in various forms
as to make it sometimes difficult, if not impos-
sble. to avoid a modification of a regulation of
the presidents own making" Needless to say
! Mr. Carr refers to the performance of election
pledges made by successful candidates. A Con
gress that will vote for such pension bills as this
one did to win votes is not likely to curtail the
spos system this year.

The following brilliant bit appeared few days

term advocates:
''On the theory that the early bird catches
the worm Colonel Roosevelt would seem to stand
some chance of getting few delegates in Ohio.
He is making speeches as early in the morning as
G 40 o'clock Incidentally the Ohioans must be
deeply interested in the present, contest being
waged in their midst to turn out at that hour to
hear a political speech. "

Roosevelt delegates from Ohio deserve so con
temptuous characterization worms, - but

PECULIAR

Stirum Press: A peculiar accident
whic hmay yet prove serious. occur
red in the west side Of Stirum. 1t
appears that George White took his
22-caliber rifle and went put in the
yard to shoot IL chicken, which he
shot through the neck and killed, and
after the bullet killed the chicken it
struck some hard substance on the
ground, DETECTING it's curse. 1T hap
.pened that at the same moment his
neighbor. Erick Anderson, was stand
ing near his barn on an adjoining lot,
and the stray bullet hit him on the
neck. passed partly through and lodg-
ed under the jaw.
The unfortunate man was taken to
DIR. Towards office at Cogswell,
whence he was put on the 500 train
pital. There his wound was probed
by DR.. Maerckelein, who failed to To-
cate the bullet. and the wounded mar
was conveyed back to Cogswell. and
thence come home.
He was able to be about the house
and yard next morning. and the
wound is not likely to prove serious
unless lockjaw or blood poisoning
should result.
Mr.. White says he was particularly
careful not to shoot in the direction
Of any house, or building. when he
pointed the gun at the chicken. and
had II not been for the DETECTION Of
the bullet no accident could have hap
pened. He is extremely sorry for the
unfortunate occurrence an dseems in
no way to blame.

l09 BUSHELS Of
OATS TO ACRE
This is Record Yield Per
Acre of Grain Raised
in Morton County,.

Mandan Pioneer: Morton county.
it is believed, has broken the record
OF the northwest for an oat yield this
year, as w. Campbell, who farms in
the Fort Lincoln Flats reports, and
shows a thresher's receipt to prove
his statement, that he secured an av-
erage of 1903 bushels of oats to the
acre on an eighty acre tract.
The rich soil of the Missouri river
bottoms and the ideal weather con-
ditions are given as the causes of the
remarkable yield.
From all Owe this vicinity come re-
ports of wonderful yields. One we'll
known farmer near Glen Cllin. who
had about 100 acres in barley, secured
an average yield of - bushels to the
acre.
The wheat in the Custer Flat neigh
borhood will average nearer 80 than
rs.
The weather thus far has been ideal
for harvesting, and by the end of the
week it is safe to assert that fully
ninety e cent of the grain in Nor
ton county will he cut. II this will
probably hold true in Oliver county.
In Mercer county more than halt the
grain is cut, and the rest will be down
by the middle of the week. In the
southern part of the county the
threshers have been at work all week
and though returns from the thresh-
ers have been slow in coming in the
general results are highly satisfac-
tory. Some wheat is expected to go
as high as 80 bushels, but from Is to
il is nearer the average. Barley is
running from 90 to 40 bushels, and
rye from IS to % bushels.
The severe stor moi last Sunday
did very little damage, though north
of New Salem a number of farmers
were hailed out where grain was not
cut. Hail also fell at Brisbane,
though the wheat, oats, barley and
rye We're practically all cut, yet flax
and corn. which is a heavy crop in
that section, probably suffered.
Every t%hreshing rig in the country
will be going next week and the ele-
vators and railroads are preparing for
the biggest movement of crops in the
