sc they married men who
were attracted by their beauty.
There's something unnatural
about woman being beautiful any
way. In nature-in the lower ami.
mails and the birds-the female isn't
beautiful. It's the male that is the
better locker. The female Is
usually demure, plain little thing
who isn't readily noticed. The male
struts around in colors and might
and comeliness. There's a good
reason for this. The persistence OF
the race depends upon the female.
She has to be unobtrusive. so she
won't attract dangerous attention
She has to look out for the young

chipping ended he plainly showed his

Following the lead of the Stark
county barristers, the attorneys of Grand
Forks county have gone on record as
unanimously supporting Judge Andrew
A. Bruce for reelection. In their reso-
luton they say:-''Judge Bruce raj ap-
pointed to the supreme bench by the
Hon. John Burke, governor. to fill the
vacancy occurring through the resigna-
ton of Judge Morgan. He has filled the
Office for the short period with credit,
and has aided the court to decide many
causes in that term and to catch up to
it's calendar. We know him as an in
dustrious and thorough man. as a man
of broad interests, of progressive ideas.
of a kindly personality. During OUT as
ISOLATION with him he displayed an
ability and learning that qualify him
in our opinion to fill the Office of judge
of the supreme court with credit to the
state and safety to the rights of the
people. We heartily commend him to
the voters of the county and state.

THE DICKINSON PRESS, SATURDAY OCTOBER IL, 1912.

whatever faction should abide by this
decision. that in order to be con-
sistent the same rule should apply as
regards the congressional nomination.
and that it should give the same IN
qualified support to Mr.. Norton as it
would exact for Mr.. Hanna.
The Pioneer was one of the first
papers in the district to bring out and
urge the nomination of Mr.. Simpson for
the Office. but Mt. Norton won. his NOM
ination fairly. and squarely according to
the rules set down by the state for pri-
mary elections and as republican NOM
inee is entitled to the unqualified sup
port of the voters of that party. Be-
cause Morton county gave such a decis-
i've majority for Mr.. Simpson the demo-
cratic nominee should not deceive him
self in thinking that Morton county is
going to desert the republican column
and turn from Norton.
The primary vote was an expression
of the people as between the respective
republicans who stood for the congress
sional nomination, but the November
vote will register the wishes of the
people as between the candidates of the
republican. democratic and socialist
parties. and in this contest Morton
county and the west Slope should stand
by Norton.
This is a new district and it should
interest every republican in the district
to see to it that its first member of con-
eress is a republican. If your introduce
ton into the halls of congress is made
by a democrat. we will be set down as
a democratic district. which we are
not: and once a democrat is fastened
onto the district it is no easy matter
to dispense with his services.
Mr.. Norton. the republican nominee.
further has had experience as a lawyer,
and in various offices that will equip
him for public service. He is a West
Slope man, and it means much to the
people of this section to have as their
representative one whose interests are
identical with theirs. -Mandan Pioneer.

A Morton county friend of Hon. P.
D. Norton, the republican nominee for
member of congress from the third dis

PRES CIRCULATION

According to the requirements of the
new postal law regarding newspapers,
the PRESS this week publishes its sworn
report, made to the third assistant post
master general and on file in his office
and also in the Dickinson postofice.
Although only dailies are REQUIRED
to fill out circulation data, the PRESS
has done so. The above figures in bold
faced type represent the PRESS paid
subscription list.
The attorney General of the United
States has ruled that only those who
have agreed to receive and pay for a
publication for some specified time are
subscribers. Every paper of necessity
sends out more or less copies that can
not be classed under this head.
Some time ago, upon the advice Of a
friendly advertising agent, who said no
paper that cared for its standing could
afford to neglect this matter, the PRESS
began to keep a detailed statement Of
circulation from week to week.
The PRESS records for the six months
from April, /, 1912, to October 1, 1912
show

and $50 weeklies. The circulation
statistics should be interesting read
ing to advertisers.
