Uncle Sam and his people are admit
ting that at least two prima donnas
who are natives OF the United States
Geraldine Farrar and Louise Homer

are the dominating figures Of the OPP

Geraldine Farrar at thirty.one has
reached the YER pinnacle OF success;

Most Of the creditors Of both firms

but little loss to North Dakota resi-

MI. Elton states that he has had

A writer in the New York
World says: The cabinet sell
ected by Washington in 1889
comprised Thomas Jefferson as
secretary of state. Alexander
Hamilton as secretary of the
the treasury, Henry Knox as
secretary of war, Samuel o.
good as postmaster-general and
Edmund Randolph as attorney
general. The first secretary of
the navy was named in 1901
under Jefferson: the first secre
tary of the interior in 1849 un-
der Taylor; the first secretary
of agriculture in 1889 under
Cleveland. The department of
commerce and labor was Great

administration, bringing the
cabinet up to nine members.

partment of labor the cabinet

WHILE considering freight
rates we should not forget the
cost of hauling freight over our
North Dakota country high
ways. The railroads in our
state charge enough anyway,
many think too much, but the
rates charged by the railroads
is very small compared with
what it costs us to carry freight
over our own roads. To haul
wheat over them for the aver.
age distance of less than ten
miles costs 81. 80 per ton. The
rates on European roads, of
the same class, is only ten to
twenty cents per ton. It costs
more per bushel to haul wheat

OPPORTUN.
ITY,

LAST week The Commoner
printed this sentence: The
democrats who, as Il result of
the congressional and senator
ial elections. are entering Off
cial life should learn early that
the secret of success in public
life is to have no secrets from
the public
In control of both houses of
congress-, as we'll as the White
House, the democratic party
will have a great opportunity.
While democrats have gone to
defeat repeatedly they may OBJ
tain satisfaction from the in
vestigation of the record their
party has made. In the first
place the democratic party is
the only political organization
that ever reformed itself. In
1896 the rank and file of the
party rose in protest against
the policies of the democratic
national administration and
put the party in line with the
progressive thought of the dav.
1t is also gratifying to remem-
Der that although the party
had not been in power it has
forced the republican admin
stration to adopt some of it's
reforms and it has provided in
SEPARATION to men of all parties
who would work for the public
good. In short, it is the only
political party which, even in
defeat, has been able to force it's
victorious opponent to adopt
some of its leading reforms.
The income TAX and the cleo
ton of senators by the people
are democratic measures. They
were practically accomplished
under republican administra.
tons and won through the
persistent championship Of
those measures by the party
which claims Thomas Jefferson
as it's leader.
Now the democratic party il
about to enter upon the ad'
ministration of the national
government. The new presid.
ent has the confidence of mer
of all parties and he is recog
nized as the leader of progress
sive thought. The Courant wish
es for the Wilson administra
