trains on steep grades where sparks
thrown out by forced draft are likely
to start fires along the right of way.
Forest officers have found that
high power telescopes are not always

BOOTLEG CASES
ARE COMMENCED

The trial of Robert Gibson on the
charge of bootlegging was COM
menced this morning and marks the
first of series of trials growing out
of the wholesale raid made several
weeks ago. Ozbun and Gregg, two
young men from Glade park, were
the detectives employed by the city
to procure the evidence and are the
principal witnesses for the state.
Samuel N. Berry is representing
Gibson, and has submitted the prin-
cipals to a severe cross-examipation.
However, neither of the sleuths was
shaken in his statement that they
had purchased the liquor at Gibson S

An effort to quash the information
this morning failed when Judge Sui

New Church in Bismarck

Among the church notices in this issue will be
found that of the latest church organization to be
formed in Bismarck, of the Christian Science denom-
ination. The spread Of this sect in the last ten years
is one, of the remarkable events in the religious
world. In North Dakota, there is a strong church
at Grand Forks and Fargo, and organizations at Graf
ton. Devils Lake, Williston, Wahpeton, Valley City
and Dickinson, and Bismarck is added to this list.
jamestown is preparing TO organize. This denomina-
ton in the future will have to be rcckoned with as
one of the great religious forces of the world, as
it has spread over the British Isles and the English
colonies, and it has also taken a remarkable hold in
Germany. 1t is not confined to any particular class
of citizens, though the movement is directed and
controlled largely by the professional classes. In
many of our large cities, the leading lawyers and
fnanciers are leaders in this denomination. It's prop.
uganda is carried on entirely by literature and lee
lures. 1t has no paid ministry and it's church serv-
ices consist of singing, silent prayer, reading passages
OF the Holy Eible and explanatory notes by Mary
Baker Eddy. The church is supported by the volun-
tary contributions of its members This practice OF
the church does away with the necessity Of raising
money by church fairs, suppers, dances and theatri-
Gals, as is the practice in other denominations. From
the character of the organizers, many predict success,
in the true meaning of the word, for the Scientist
organization in Bismarck.

OF being destroyed. troops are quickly rushed to the
scene OF disturbance. The troops are paid BY the
state. out Of money contributed for the support of
the government by the taxpayers. Thousands OF
dollars are annually thus spent in protecting property.
But when does the government spend as nue.. money
to make mines safer to work in? When a mine dis.
aster occurs an investigation is usually ordered.
which in the end aounts to nothing. It seems just as
logical that the government should spend money to
safeguard the lives of workers when threatened by
dangerous working conditions as to protect property
by an armed force in case of a strike.
five desire to avoid Socialism We must recognize
that when there is a question between property rights
and human lives the latter should always be consid-
cred first. This horrible manning and slaughter,
caused in the name of business and industry, could
be avoided If the same solicitous care were accorded
human life as is accorded property.

BUILDING for the Future

In the current Atlantic Monthly, Guglielmo Fer.
zero, the noted Italian historian, discusses what he
terms the American Riddle" The riddle is, OF
course, the question: What is to be the future OF
America? The historians Chief criticism of America
Is that the general tendency OF her people is to
secure quantity instead of quality. When a contract
Is let for a building it is always demanded that it
shall be constructed in the shortest possible time.
We Americans are too impatient of delay. We want
things done quickly.
But it takes time to create anything that is beau.
tiful. The great c%athedrals Of the old world that
stand as monuments to the wonderful artistic mag.
ination OF the Middle Ages were not constructed in
a month, nor in a year. 1t took years of slow, patient
and careful work to build those inspiring structures.
There is much truth in the Italians criticism.
We do not pay enough attention to quality and beauty.
The enjoyment of the beautiful is lost sight Of in
the mad rush for the almighty dollar. We permit
our cities to be built in a heter-skelter fashion. We
consider only the present and not the future. And
yet, we should build for the future.
Every city, town and hamlet that aspires to retain
a permanent place on the map should plan for the
future. Parks, Fairgrounds, recreations centers and
beauty spots should be provided for. Now is the
time to secure space. Delay means higher land
values. These things will have to be provided for
some time-if not by us, by our children. No bust
ness man can successfully run his business without
a plan. Our seltishness and lack of foresight is only
adding to the burden of the next and succeeding
generations. The Identification of our cities and
towns is a work that should commend itself to every
one. 1t would do the average citizen good to read
Keats and let the poet teach him that a thing OF
beauty is a joy forever-that beauty is grandness.

The Hanging of Woman

The proposed hanging of a woman in Connecticut
or murder has aroused considerable interest over
the entire country, and the press is long and loud
Journal may be of interest:
Despite any prejudice caused by the propaganda
in behalf Of woman suffrage, there seems to be a
deeprooted feeling throughout the country that the
hanging Of a woman is a disgrace, not only to the
state within whose borders it occurs, but to the coun-
try as a whole. This feeling is practically universal,
so far as Americans are concerned. 1t is perhaps
less intense in New England, whose people adhers
more tenaciOusly to the stern and uncOmpromisins
standards Of morality and punishment. But even i'll
New England opinion is against the %in0iction Of the
death penalty upon a woman, and it is no surprise
that there is a strong movement there in behalf OF
Mrs. Bessie Wakefield, the latest woman to be con.
victed of murder in the first degree.
The women Of Connecticut are making strenuous
efforts to secure the committeeman of the sentences
of life Imprisonment. 1t is said that there has not
been a woman hanged in that state since colonial
days. That in itself would constitute a strong argu-
ment in behalf of mercy, even though the justice OF
the penalty cannot be denied and even though, other
things being equal, there are no good reasons for
making distinctions on the ground Of sex.
To the credit of Americana, however, 1t can be
said that there is an invincible repugnance to ex-
ecuting a woman, regardless of the enormity OF the
crime Of which she may be guilty. Murder under
any conditions calls for the seyerest punishment that

Thrift Paying for UnthrH

One of the widest visions of the Peerless Dreamer
is government guaranty Of bank deposits. Oklahoma
has adopted it, and the aspiration Of Bryan scars
to incorporating it in the new national banking law.
1t has been sh4nted off so far, with the other vision
airy finance, but the Observation-Disclosures fusion has
put a bit of it into its opposition draft. This is the
first time Hitchcock ever sat at Bryan's feet.
This amendment only sets apart one-fourth Of the
surplus earnings of regional banks, after paying six
per cent and accommodating a twenty per cent surplus
Tor themselves, as a reserve to pay depositors OF
failed banks. But it contains the very principle of
evil Of the deposit guaranty project. 1t taxes well
managed and successful banks, in proportion to their
skill. and success, to recoup the losses of reckless,
incapable or dishonest banks, in proportion to their
tarelaSsness or corruption.
That principle runs through social life. The
thrifty pay fer the unthrifty, in loans, gifts and
charity. 1t is the rule of human as distinguished
brute existence. The race is made up of the carriers
and the carried. But even there it is softened into
scientific organization Of help, not to put a premium
on idleness and dependence.
1t has no place in business life, where it encour-
ages recklessness and dishonesty by ~pledging pay.
