both In liquidation and for the short
account Many bea IRISH arguments
were used In connection with the
report, but the market refused these
considerations at the opening, and
made a strong upward movement Of
about 20 points before the close.
The analysis most acceptable to
the trade OF the report was that 1t
very nearly represents the actual
commercial yield of lint cotton ex-
the fact that in excess of S Ia mill
lion bales will be exported before
January 1st. and that well In excess of
these figures will be required by
American spinners before the end OF
the current year. spectators claim

prices unless spinners find themselves
In a position to resist the tremendous
demand for goods at profitable rates.

HtHST BY HOLDING ON.

Foster county has at least one man
in the person Of e. T. Halaas, who
is glad that he held on to a quarter
section of North Dakota land even
ough the holding on was a matter
Of necessity rather than choice.
twenty-five years ago Mr.. Halaas or
tered a fine quarter section of land
in No"'more township, Foster coun-
ty, for $500 cents an acre, but
could find no buyer. A few days
ago the same quarter was sold to
Hans Johnson for $50 an acre or $1,000
Old settlers in many parts Of the
state will remember that in the year
Of 1890 it was impossible to Sci! land
a any price. There had teen a crop
failure, the ountry was new and I'm
tried, the settlers had no extra money
to invest. It was still more impos-
sible to secure a loan on land and
the only possible way to secure
money was to sell. Even at the RI.
diculous low prices quoted buyers for
land could not be found. A fair
mich COW today brings more money
or furnishes better security for a
tank loan than did a quarter section
Of virgin prairie in those days
The man "who stuck it out" during
the dark days of North Dakota devel-
opment are now rich, and in two dec
AIDES have watched the land values
increase by the thousandfold.

the fair tax should carry at the No.

and Chairman Stenvick for the dem.

for the fair directors with the cam

Subordinated Wealth to Liberty

In ancient times, by contrast. precisely
because people were then so much poorer
and more simple the difference in man
ner of living between rich and poor were
far less marked.
The two groups lived in close contact
with each other, treating each other az
equals In deed. so long as they belonged
to the same social and political rank.
Augustus, while unwilling to dine with
freedmen. however learned, entertained
men who were poor but free. A rich Ro-
man never dealt with any freedman,
nor received him in his home or at his
table as an equal. even though the freed
man was as rich as himself or richer; but
he received and dealt on terms of equal
ity with any citizen, however wretched
and reduced in circumstances. because
like himself the citizen was free.
IT, however, the ancient conception or
social relations was less humane and less
broad than our own. It nevertheless had
q certain moral grandeur lacking In ours;
for in appraising men il subordinated
wealth to such ideal attributes as liberty
or birth or citizenship. And so 1t main
tanned a sense OF moral worth IN society
that money cannot buy. Tho poorest of
Roman citizens was conscious and proud
Of possessing something ofa lnestimahlc
value which the richest freedman In
Rome with all his wealth could not have
acquired. And this unconsciousness was
great comfort to him and a com. easa-
ton for his poverty.
