Honest John during his campaign
eulogized Roosevelt. and when making
an itinerary of the state lost no op-
poFtunity to impress on the people that
democrat party as represented by
John Burke was identical with the
Roosevelt progressive wing of the re-
publican party.
Upon this assumption and d~ec1ara-
ton of principles the progressive re-
publicans elected him three times
governor of North Dakota. Four
years ago in making his campaign ne
particularly avoided any mention of
the national democratic ticket and new
err mentioned the name of VIM. j. Bry-
IN during the entire campaign.
In the Fargo speech he reviled
Roosevelt and actually praised the
Taft administration. But he did not
state his prior preferential primary
predictions.
He did not tell his audience that
before the primary he was for Harmon
"A stalwart of the stalwarts-that he
used the whip to control the North Da-
kota democrats-that for his services
he was promised a cabinet position in
case of HaTmon's success. He openly

the part of the democrats to support

TAKING ~BILLRoARDs.

The following from The Minneapolis
Journal will be read with interest by
many Fargoans, who are opposed to
garish billboard advertising:
Practical abolition of the billboard
has been decreed by the French parlia-
ment. This is to be accomplished by
the expedient of taxing 1t to death.
The new law, which went into effect
last June, provides that every new
billboard erected must pay a tax vary
ing from $40 to $50 a square yard, ac-
cording to its size. The larger the
billboard. the heavier the tax. II a
billboard bears two advertisements, its
tax Is doubled; If three, 1t is trebled.
IT is said that since the passage of
this law not a single new billboard
has been erected. The old ones have
three years Of grace. After that period
expires they will be subjected to the
same taxation, and it is confidently
predicted that by June, 1915, the pleas
an French countryside of old will have
resumed it's natural beauty, unmarried
by the Earring notes Of offensive board
ings.
A careful investigation has recently
been made of the billboard nuisance in
New York. It was found that there
were 1900 billboards in the city, which
by the double-deCk and . even triple
deck plan afford $500 facings. The
event from these is estimated to run
close to ST. 900 900 annually. A large
share of them are built in open viola
tton of the regulatory law. Apparent
" no one pays much attention to what
the law says about dimensions, loca-
ton. safety, and so on. After the
easy-going American fashion, the law
is calmly ignored. Yet that the fire risk
of inflammable b%illboards Is considered
was shown in the San Francisco fire.
But the chief objection, of course. is
esthetic. The billboard is an offense
to the eye. The trip from Minneapolis
to st. Paul. for example, is made
through a lane of flaming and garish
advertisements. whereas the beauties
of the fields and trees ought to be pre-
served. The courts have been slow to
recognize an offense to the eye as a
nuisance, though they have long held
offenSes to the ear and nose to be null
sances that could be abated under the
police power. Within the last few
years the tendency Of the courts has
changed, and a number of decisions
have been rendered upholding laws
against b~illboards on esthetic grounds
1t may be found. however, that the
French system is the best. There car
be no question Of the power of the
state to tax billboards and tax them
heavily. The government taxes oleo-
margarine heavily for the purpose OF
preventing its sale in competition with
butter. The admission that a bill
board tax was intended to abate the
nuisance rather than to raise revenue
would not affect the constitutionality
of such a law.

A NORTH DAKOTA.

Saskatchewan, with about two thirds
h population Of North Dakota, spent
$4,000 in 1910 on agricultural societies.
farmers institutes and extension work.
They had seventy-five agricultural So
c~ieties. These, in addition to Zach one
holding a fair, conducted eighteen CO.
operative demonstrations, seven spring
stallion shows, fourteen stock judging
competitions, two blowing matches,
forty-two field grain competitions.
thfrty-one seed fairs, three excursions
T. the experiment station and Ss1
farmers institutes.
Through all these activities a great
deal of information is given out-in-
SEPARATION and enthusiasm aroused
There are so many activities that every
farmer can take part in something
growing a good field of grain-produc-
ing good horses, cattle, sheep or hogs,
good seed grain-taking part in stock
judging competitions, blowing matches,
other things. Taking part In these
things and doing the things we'll arous-
es a pride in the farm. This in turn
exalts farming. In fact makes it ap-
peal to n as a profession.
The aim in the province is to encour-
age so many activities that no farmer
will have a chance to remain just the
ordinary farmer-to get him interested
In doing some one or more things well
enough to win in a competition with
his neighborE.
The aid to these societies Is given as
roilows: To each society, which con-
ducts a good farming competition or
ploWtng match at which cash prizes
amounting to $50 are offered, the prov
ince will pay two-thirds of the
nount up to $s5. To each society.
which conducts a spring stallion show
with prizes amounting to 500, the
province will give an amount equal to
two-tht-Es of the prize money but not
exceeding $155. To each society, which
conducts a seed grain fair or poultry
show and offers $50 in prizes, the prov
inceIwill give an amount equal to two
thirds OF the prizes, but not exceeding
$50. To Zach society which onduct
an agricultural exposition and offers
prize money amounting to $500, the
province will pay a sum equal to two
thirds OF the amount Each society
also gets so cents annually for a
member up to 200 members. These
agricultural societies also have charge
of the farmers Institutes and other
meetings held in the interest of farm
ing They send to the agricultural
college for the speakers and any other
assistance they need. The agricultur-
al college also sends out the Judges ia
pass upon the different products at the
fairs.
The extension department of the ag-
ricultursl college had $4,000 in 1910
for furnishing speakers and judges to
the agricultural societies.
North Dakotans will readily see that
there r some things in which the new
Canadian northwest leads even pro-
sressiVe and hustling fickertsils. If
this state could afford to spend more
money along these lines the benefits
would be quickly apparent.
Some day there will be more atten =
ton paid to this great farming move
rnent. Some day North Dakota will
have a governor in sympathy with the
farmers, who will not veto %appropria-
tons for their benefit.

Two Victims

A yonng man stood at a bar one day
And called for glass of beer.
His cheeks they glowed with the bloom
Of youth,
And his eye was bright and clear,
Like vain young lass. he looked in
the glass
Al his own reflection there.
He smiled a smile that was free from
guile
For the face was young and fair.
He drank his beer with right good
cheer
He paid and went his way.
He didn't think he was 80 near the
brink
As thousands are today.
Ten wears have passed since we saw
him last
He stands at the very same bar.
He mops along, he's no longer strong
For drink has left its scar.
Once again he looks in the glass
Through eyes that are red and hot
The face seen there is no longer fair
But the face Of drunken sot
These pictures I've drawn are true to
life
As hundreds and thousands know.
You can see their like on every hand
Wherever you may 90.
Only look into the glass long enough
AS on the bar you lean.
You II see the very same picture there
The other man has seen.
