"You see, the children played with him all day, and the older people kept

"As he did not feel very well he was cross Instead Of being sorry for the

even tease him to have him hiss and shake his ratueae

present law which forbids the killing
Eof any more seal on the Pribilov Is.
lands for b period Of nve years. IT Is
well that the president has done this.
The proposed experiment is worth i
ing and win work no particular hard
ship TO any one.
The industry OF pelagfc sealing has
been practically extinguished, on the
claim that the killing DC seal on the
high seas was tending % the extermin-
alton Of the seal herds. 1t has been
the claim OF those who have been in
terested In the killing Of seal on shore
in sanctuary. that such killing has had
no effect upon the great reduction OF
the herd, for the only seals killed, so 1T
was claimed, were the surplus males.
Nevertheless 1t is roundly asserted
that pup" sealskins have been among
those offered for sale in the London
market.
AS against the contention that the
killing Of seal on the islands has work
ed none Of the injuries to the herd, the
effects of which are apparent, there Is
the claim that the constant and per-
sistent killing of all of the healthy
young male seal, year in and year out,
has weakened the vitality of the herd,
as none save the old bulls of great age
have been left to perpetuate the race.
There is also the possibility that the
killing of the seal in sanctuary has re-
suited in q portion of the herd. which
formerly resorted to the Pribiloy is
lands seeking new breeding grounds.
It Is a fact that fur seal have appeared
in great numbers on and in the
South Pacific, and are using old rock
cries there which were abandoned
many years ago.
The complete cessation of the killing
of any seal or the islands for a term of
years will help to demonstrate wheth-
er these theories are correct, and will
serve to save the herd for awhile.

THE 4HIkE. TO ALBANY.

Bishop Doane, Of Albany, has held
Gen. Rosalie Gardner Jones and her
army up to the scorn Of the public,
saying that they are silly seekers after
publicity. He has classed their hike"
from New York to Albany with the vio-
Ience OF the London suffragettes, whose
acts were those Of lawlessness and de-
flance.
The object Of the pilgrimage from
New York to Albany was, Of course, to
attract attention to the cause which
sffe s~uffrsgettes have espoused, and If
they believed this method of making
formal demand for a constitutional
right to vote would be more effective
than q less strenuous method, they
were perfectly justified in the course
they pursued.
Why not give these women credit
for being honest in their advocacy of
equal suffrage? If their canse is just
and OF vital concern to them, il would
seem that there is nothing silly in en-
pioying what they conceive to be the
most effective way to attain the ends
desired.
a great many of those people who
oppose equal suffrage are fond of say
ing that a woman's place is at home;
that a woman should remain al home
and attend to household duties-but
this has little force in the presence of
the plain truth that thousands of won
en- have no such home, and that they
must compete with men in all lines of
~endeavor for a livelihood. and while
doing this they must ever encounter
sand combat the false idea that their
service is not worth as much as that of
snen.
The ancient prejudice against wom-
zen becoming potent factors in business
and public affairs is d~issipating in the
broad view of actual conditions, and
the truth is dawning on the intelli-
Esnce Of the country that an intelli-
sent woman could and would cast a
worthier, better N more desirable
ballot than an ignorant man.

ELECTRIC SHOW
A BIG FEATURE
THIS DEPARTMENT UNDER THE
AUSPICES OF A. c. ENGINEERS
HAS BECOME IMPORTANT PART
OF WORK AT A. c.-No ONE
SHOULD MISS THE BIG DISPLAY.

One of the best and most interest
ing displays to be featured this week
in Fargo is the second annual electrical
show which Is to be given at the arm
Dry at the North Dakota Agricultural
college the last three days OF this
week. Starting Thursday evening the
show will have its grand opening at
which the N. ID. a. q. cadet band will
be a feature and win give a two hours
concert in connection with the show.
The show viii consist Of displays
OF all of the most modern and up to
date electrical inventions, appliances,
fixtures, machines and apparatus in
use at the present time all over the
world. OF these perhaps the complete
wireless telegraph station and the pro-
cess OF the motion picture machine
from the camera following out every
detail to the actual projection of the
pictures on the curtain and the model
electric farm, the model interurban
railway with the pro1ectoscope, will
furnish the most complete and UP to
date exhibit Of electrical inventions
ever displayed in the northwest.
There will be a. large number Of
booths in which exhibits Will be pIac-
ed which have been secured from large
electrical firms all over the United
States. These exhibits will consist of
displays Of storage batteries, lighting
plants suitable for use on the average
farm, and also numerous other e~lectri-
cal fixtures which can be used on the
farm.
The electrical show in itself, is
something strictly new and novel in
the United States. The eastern states
have put 0 IN a number Of such shows
and the only other show OF this ma
ture in the west was that given by the
engineers at the college last year. The
improvement Of the show this year
over that given last year will only more
favorably demonstrate the rapid
strides made by the engineering de-
partment of the agricultural college,
and give to those who visit the show
a great deal Of information in regard
to the latest improvements, possible
only by the use of electricity.
This show should especially appeal
to members of the Tri-State Grain
Growers convention, because of the
large number of practical displays
which will be shown of appliances
made doubly useful on the farm by the
use of electricity.

Is something repellant in the thought

men at so are worn out, while others

mar OF so is as variable as the mental.
The n thing that has counted. I'M
consciously, more thar anything else
axainst the man Of so is his tempera-
xnent. While he cannot be averaged
xaentaily or physically, his average
temperament is not as pIiable as that
Of the man Of 80. or even 40. He is
more "sot1 in his ways and is less
adaptable to the circumstances Of life
which are as c~hangeable as life itself.
Ills natural conservatism binds him to
rasthods and principles that were in
