OHIO MopIFIEs REcALL.
New Law Merely Makes I~mpeach-

Philadelphia Bulletin: The amend

tional convention providing for the
removal of state officials, which is

compromise satisfactory to the friends
Of the recall" differs in all essen
tails from that form Of direct action,
and goes no further than open the
way for a less guarded impeachment
proceeding.
1t does not provide for popular ac-
ton in such cases. either in the ini-
tiative or in 1naI judgment, nor does
it broaden the ground upon which
such proceedings be brought. In sub
stance it provides that laws may be
enacted for the removal from Office OF
and state official, after complaint and
hearing for misconduct involving NOR
al turpitude or other causes provided
by law. This is essentially irnpeach-

RTNAP, tapi The woodpecker had been at work at the bark Of the trees
in the orchard.
He was a busy little fellow. Daddy had told Jack and Evelyn
how woodpeckers bored right through the bark to get at the bad in
seds that might otherwise hurt the trees.
The children admired the gay little crest OF red on the woodpeckers head.
he was not only a faithful worker but a handsome fellow.
"The woodpecker is doing a lot Of good for us by cleaning mp those trees in
the orchard SO that we may have q nice crop of apples, pears and peaches"
said daddy.
"There is a story about the woodpecker that may please you.
other woodpeckers seem to have lost For instance, he could talk with man.
ut happened that near the home Of the woodpecker there lived a fierce
wizard. His castle was in the middle of a big black swamp. and whenever
he walked abroad his breath poisoned every one whom he CHANGED to meet
MANY brave men went out to meet the wizard, but no nj was able to
tight against him. Whenever a stranger came along the wizard would blow
his poisoned breath and kill him
One day a knight q very brave soldier began to hght the wicked old
wizard. He shot once; he shot twice, but still his arrows failed to do harm
The wizard booted and laughed at the knights poor marksmanshp The ar
rows glanced of the wizards skin as III were steel
"At last the knight had only three arrows left. He had vainEy sent several
dozen at the wizard. He was almost ready to give up which would have
meant his death, for the bad wizard would then have certainly killed him
Suddenly a wee small voice called down to the knight: His heart is too
hard to pierce. Shoot your arrows at his forehead
"The knight looked up and, ls 1t was the friendly woodpecker who had
spoken.
After thanking the bird the knight fitted Al arrow to his bow and sent
1t straight at the wizards head. 1t gashed the flesh, and the blood began to
flow. A second time the knight shot, and the arrow went still deeper. At the
third shot the wizard fell dead.
"Then the knight called the little woodpecker down from the tree. A drop
of blood from the wizards forehead fell upon his feathes-ight on top of his
head. 1t was magic blood and ever since all birds Of his family have had red
head feathers"

The Duel in the German Army.

Minneapolis journal: Catholic and
socialist in the German Reichstag
unite in condemnation of the Guel as
practiced in the army with the con-
donement Of the emperor. The war
minister, whose own nephew was re-
Gently slain in a duel, declared that
no officer Tho refused a challenge was
worthy his commission. He got no
further, for the Reichstag howled him
down.
The pope, at Rome, a few nights
ago, in commenting on a case in which
one of his own officers was involved,
remarked that, while the duel was in
excusable, it's survival was explained
by the deficiency of modern law to
supply a remedy for hurts to personal
honor.
The deficiency may be admitted, but
the duel is no remedy. It's abuses are
many and the check it imposes upon
cladestine or open Islander is small.
1t was stated in the Reichstag that
a good Catholic was forbidden by his
conscience from accepting a chaI-
lenge. But a Catholic officer in the
German army refusing a challenge.
would be compelled to resign his
commission. AS for the German So
c~ialists, they have not forgotten how
their most gifted leader. Ferdinand
Lasce1les, was killed in a duel.
The antagonism voiced by the
Reichstag exhibits again that separa-
tion of German commerce, thought
science, public opinion from the
medievalism of scepter and sword rep
resented by the kaiser and exempli-
fed in the army.

SOUTH CAROLINA VICTORY.

The people Of South Carolina are
being congratulated at getting rid Of
Governor Blease. He was the ex-
tremest type of political ruflan and
outlaw. Elected on an anti-negro
platform he carried official warfare
against the blacks to the most danger
GUS limits. He endorsed lynchings Of
negroes-and ever expressed a desire
that he might personally lead a mob.
His attitude brought the state into
disgrace and the newspapers almost
unanimously opposed his methods and
against his ~re-eIection. De-
cency won and Blease vas defeated
and will now be consigned to oblivion.

be fttingly observed in North Dakota
as well as the rest of the country. 1t
is a beautiful custom that men and
women should set apart one Sunday of
each year to pay special tribute to that
lear being who gave them life. The
occasion is equally appropriate for
paying honor to the mothers who are
living-and 10 the memory of those
who have passed beyond.
The idea for the observance Of
Mothers day originated with Miss
Jarvis of Philadelphia and it met with
popular endorsement everywhere. Its
observance is general.

~cHILDREN'S TEETH.

Fargoans interested in the education
Of children have paid considerable at
tention to the tests and examinations
of the condition of the teeth of the
public school pupils. The tests in
different cities have varied consider
ably-but there appears to be almost
one-third of the children in schools
whose teeth are in such condition as
to require treatment. In many of these
cases dentists say that the proper use
of toothbrushes would have prevented
trouble.
Most parents who look after their
children in this respect are able to pay
for the dental treatments their off,
springs require. There are many pu-
pills who have received no care of this
kind from their parents--and the lat

free dental dispensaries to care for
such cases.
In some cities the dentists have or

Lidgerwood Monitor, Dem: In state
politics it is claimed by some that an
effort is being made to get Hanna to
withdraw from the fight for the re-
publican nomination for governor.
That is quite doubtful and probably is
but one of the many campaign rumors
that often get circulated. True, the
defeat of Roosevelt gave him a black
eye, but did not put him out of the
race. At the last election he received
a higher vote than Helgeson, and that
surprised many. There are many vot-
ers who call themselves progressivess
who will always vote for Hanna when
he is a candidate and would do so IL
he stays in the race. He will be home
from congress in a few days and eth
er make a fight to win or drop out
gracefully mad until he does the latter
he can be counted on as being in the
light.
