soon as he reached Minot. But the
old habit OF postponing letter writing
asserted itself and none was written.
A few days ago George Stull gave
up the idea Of writing and made up
his mind to board the train and &C.
count for himself to his elder brother
in person. His arrival was a pleas
ant surprise to E. q. stul and his fam
lily, and the two brothers have since
been cumming around together like
they did when they wore knee trous-
ers. After the reunion George Stull
learned that his brother David died in
Chicago about nine years ago.
1T is all my fault" said George
Stull this morning. IT simply neglect
ed writing. don't know why, but
it seems when fellow gets long
way from home and travels greet
deal, he falls into negligent habits in
connection with his correspondence,
time fairly fies and he wakes up
eventually to realize that it has been
years since he heard from his family,
and longer since he has seen any of
the members. Then he wants to get
back home and see the folks. There
will be no lack of correspondence
from now on
Ut was truly a pleasant surprise
when my baby brother came to see
me after being absent so long, said
e. B. Stull, land will see to it that
he does not remain away so long
again. We are all that is left of the
family"

After being separated for more than
seventeen years, during which time
they had not heard from each other,
Mr.. p. B. Stull, secretary Of the Her
radura Plantation Company, and his
brother, Mr.. George Stull, business
man Of Minot, were united yesterday
evening. The last time they met was
at their mothers funeral in Rochester,
N. Y, more than seventeen years ago.
Shortly after the funeral rites there
was dispersion of the family. E. B.
Stull, who has been resident of
North Dakota for twenty-five years,
returned to Valley City, David Stull
returned to his home in Chicago, and
George Stull started out in the world
and was lost sight of, but not forgot
ten.
Neglect of correspondence is the
only reason for the long separation,
and George Stul1 pleads guilty to be-
ing responsible. Knowing, however,
that his brother had interests in Val
ley City, he did not worry about los
ing track Of him, and postponed writ
ing from day to day, until the days
stretched into weeks, the weeks into
months, and months into years. A
year ago last June George Stull pass
ed through Valley City and asked the
police about his brother, E. B. Stull.
He was informed that E. B. Stull was
still here, and continued his journey,

Requests Roosevelt to
Deliver Speech Here
DARBY O'MALLEY SENDS sTELE-
GRAM ASKING MANAGER DIXON
TO BREAK ITINERARY.

Colonel Roosevelt will be asked to
stop over in Valley City on his way
to Fargo, where he will address the
state convention Of the Progressive
party to be held there Sept. s.
Darby O'Malley, who bears the dis
tinction OF being the first man in the
United States to circulate petition
to place the name of Colonel Roose-
welt on preferential primary ballot,
last night sent telegram to the Pro-
gressive leader, urging him to visit
Valley City on his trip west. In view
of the fact that Mr.. O'Malley was the
original circulator of the now famous
Roosevelt petitions, and that Valley
City is the cradle of the preferential
primary movement, the telegram will
undoubtedly have much weight with
Manager Dixon.
Unless the itinerary arranged for
Colonel Roosevelt is so iron clad and
follows such close schedule. there
is little doubt that every effort will be
made by Manager Dixon to arrange
for stop over here, and it is possible
the colonel himself may insist upon
visiting Valley City if at all possible
to break the long journey at this
place:
, Mr.. O'Malley sent the following tele-
gram to j. NJ. Dixon, manager tf Col
onel Roosevelt's campaign, today:
valley City, N. D., Aug. %. 1912.
u. M. Dixon, Manager Roosevelt
Campaign Committee, Chicago, II.
"After flying over this broad land
of ours, the stork bearing the prefer.
entail primary movement alighted in
Valley City and the first petition cir
culated in the United States asking
Theodore Roosevelt's nomination was
submitted to the voters. The sigma
tories to that petition now ask that
Colonel. Roosevelt visit the cradle
where the infant was born and honor
them with speech on his way )

tition and represents the hundreds

through closed doors. appeared and
disappeared at will. The condition
of his life was evidently vastly
changed by His experience with
Death. He had gone down into the
valley and in the shades had sloughed
the part that suffered and bled and
died upon the tree. The dream of
Christian men is that as He was so
we shall be; conscious of the past yet
gathered to the heart of the ages;
able to sympathize with sin yet re-
moved from all temptation; touched
with the memory of sorrow yet rad
liant with a supreme joy.
When you dream of immortality
do not forget the agony of the Gar
den, the cry Of the dying figure on
the cross, the jeering throng, the
descent into the tomb. This is the
path your feet must tread. The
world has witnessed no great deed
that was not born of agony and
nursed at the breast of sorrow.
Dante was driven from his beloved
Florence; Lucretia's wife was false;
Milton was in darkness; Cromwell
passed through ways of blood; Lin
coin, the tenderest of them all,
headed his nation in civil conflict:
Wilde drew De Profundus out of the
wretchedness of a prison cell. If
you have never suffered deeply you
have never lived intensely; if your
heart has not been Wrung with a
great sorrow you can have no true
sympathy. This is not the gospel of
the long face; it is the gospel of joy
born of pain. Be glad; glad you are
aIiye, glad the sun shines and the
birds sing; glad of the day, and the
night, glad of the way that leads to
life everlasting, glad of the convic-
ton of immortality that your heart
holds.
Though he were dead yet shall he
live again"

ROOSEVELT ON RECIPROCITY

In any further attempt, by reci-
procity treaty or otherwise, to bring
about a Encouragement of the tariff,
there must be no discrimination
against the farmer. No effort to
make him pay the entire burden of
reduction. His interests must be
considered with the same care that
is given to the consideration of the
interests of other American citizens.
The welfare of the farmer, like the
welfare of the wageworker, is vital
to our general welfare and no tariff
system is proper that does.not recog-
nize as a fundamental necessity the
need of caring for the welfare of
both the wage Garner and thej farm

HE SHALL LIVE AGAIN

All men grasp at immortality.
They demand an eternity for the in
dividual. Suffering and disease and
sin mar this poor little life but they
fondly believe they are crawling
through the darkness into a great
light. In spite of its apparent and
terrible imperfections they want life
made everlasting. They cling to the
hope that eventually Goods great
ness must flow round their imper-
lection, round their restlessness His
rest" They look to see only the
beautiful made immortal and they
secretly delight in the expectation
of looking back upon this life from
pinnacle of perfection and exalting
over the pains and mistakes of the
Present.
How this miraculous change is to
be effected they do not stop to con-
slider, doubtless they realize that an
explanation would be impossible. 1t
is to take place. That is the essen
tial thing. In the heart of every
man is the embryo of perfection.

Upon what that is vital, that is

True you are for La Toilette and |
for Roosevelt but upon what funda-
mental principle do Roosevelt and
La Toilette differ, and shall you and
1 go back of the words of our lead
ers? All me, is there not strife
enough and do not our ancient enc
mics chuckle when they see US en-
gagged in "civil conflict" After all
is it you | wish to down? Is it me

rather both after the other fellow,

Taft acceptable to you? No. Is
Taft acceptable to me? No. Are
the Progressive principles of La Fol-
lette acceptable to me? Yes. Are
the Progressive principles of Roose-
welt acceptable to you? Yes.
But you say Roosevelt is person
ally objectional. Indeed! La Fol-
Iette to me is personally objectional.
But prefer him to Taft. Can't you
say as much? Then let us get toge-

BEHIND THE POLITICAL SCENES.

Right now good many people in
terested in the political future of
the "g-r-r-randest country on Gods
g-r-r-een earth" are pausing to take
stock.
The inventory is sadly disappoint-
ing.
And the tragedy of the thing is
that no one is satisfied.
The White Mans Hope came out
of Africa a while ago looming large
on the horizon of popular govern
ment, and carrying the big stick
carelessly caught in the crook of his
sturdy right arm. He looked like
winner. He had put the kibosh on
hungry tigers and proving kings of
the wilderness. He had draped his
fingers around the asparagus ear of
the graceful pachyderm and taught
him to caress the American flag.
He sure looked like winner.
He capered ashore, his teeth shin
ing like the morning light, threw his
hat into the ring and shouted his
challenge into the ears of all men.
Little Bobbie forsook his pleasant,
self appointed task of pouring brim-
stone over newspapers and sneaked
in after that hat. Because of the
favorable "go-it-to-a-fnish" laws of
North Dakota that glorious state
was chosen as the scene of the con-
fiict.

BURY IHt PAST

Let the old life be covered by the new.
The old past, SO full of sad mistakes;
Let it be wholly hidden from the view

Ere the earth of life melt in the eternal

Let the white mantle Of repentance fling
Soft drapery about it, fold on fold,
Even as the new snow covers up the old
