PAYMENT.

A description of the strike between
a branch Of the United States Steel
corporation and it's employees in Pitts
burg contains the information hat
the wounded, except two deputies
and Il policeman, were spectators.
Among the injured are several WOmen
and a 6-mOnths-old child"
The lines contain much that is sig
nificant. They do not undertake to
show whether it is the employers or
the employees who are at fault; they
merely show that the sufferers, in the
main, were neither employers nor en-
ployes.
And that is the general situation in
every instance. when a strike is on.
Tn" employers may be checked in
their plans and progress by the pro-
cesses Of a strike, and the employees
may temporarily suffer.
But in tho end, it Is the public that
pays, and this is a fact which is
destined to become so deeply estab-
lished in time to come that arbitra-
ton, by boards Of unquestionable JUS
tice, will take the place Of the crude
and costly closing Of plants and the
consequent disorder and suffering.

BUY FARGO MADE GOODS.

The Fargo Commercial club has
started a campaign, IN the furtherance
of which 1t is hoped that all the forces
Of the city may be united, to impress
upon Fargoans the importance OF buy
ing Fargo made goods. Fargo has
many manufacturing enterprises. This
was demonstrated at the last Home
Products show. If Fargoans would
insist oil being furnished with goods
that were made in Fargo" whenever
they were purchasing a class of goods
they know are made in this city, 1t
would have a remarkable effect in
stimulating manufacturing here and in
making a greater Fargo. The women
of the city have an opportunity by
doing this, to do something practical
for the upbuilding of Fargo. When
they order goods they should insist
that Fargo made goods be furnished,
whenever there are such goods to be
obtained.
But, the people will not ask for
Fargo made goods unless they are
familiar with the fact that the par
ticular thing they want is made in
Fargo. Publicity therefore is one Of
the primary purposes Of the cam
paign.
Fargo manufacturers should them
selves assist in this campaign. They
should mark their goods with a label
MADE in Fargo" Every package that
goes out to the retail trade of the
city ought to be stamped with such
a label.
There should also be an advertising
campaign carried on. The live manu-
facturer of the city who realizes the
fact that this is the psychological move
ment to get his good prominently be-
fore the home people is going to reap
a big harvest from this campaign.
It is a big movement and should have
the hearty support of every loyal
Fargoan.

Decisions of the Supreme Court

In the supreme court, state of
North Dakota, April term, 1912. John
McCarty, plaintiff and respondent, VS..
John Kepreta, defendant and appel
liant.
This action for r~eplevin is brought
by plaintiff as indorsee of a note Sc
cured by chatteI mortgage on the re-
plevied property, by which action
plaintiff seeks to o the mort

poses. The note and mortgage were
assigned by it's cashier for value to
it's president, this plaintiff. Plain
tiff testifies he had no actual knowl-
edge of any infrmity in the note or
of any defense to it's payment, and

ground that he received no considera-

payee or any other person. From the
trial courts rulings, that such de-
Tense is not available until actual
knowledge of such want of considera-
ton for the note shall have been es-
tablished as known to this plain
tiff, or until such facts were cstab-
lished as would Constitute bad faith in
the purchase IF the instrument by
plaintiff, and that proof that plaintiff
was at all times in question the presi-
dent and necessarily a director Of the
bank, wa insufficient as a foundation
to admit proof OF the want of con

does not operate to constitute plain

A SMOKE

Welcome news for both sides in the
smoke nuisance controversy may be
found in the announcement that the
New York Edison Co. has perfected
a device whereby the issuing Of smoke
and Cinders from a smokestaCk is pre-
vented. Not only is the new device
workable on industrial plants, but on
locomotives as well. The company has
expended 100000 in experimenting
until the result sought was accom-
Splished, according to the officers.
General Manager Murray of the Edi-
son company has been in charge Of
the experimental work, and is enthusi-
astic over the success achieved. In
speaking Of the invention, he y
TESTS Of the new device have been
made on four boilers Of $50 horse
power each, n the new appliance
is absolutely effective. 1t will make
1t possible to do away with the smoke
nuisance. This is no theory. Our
demonstrations will prove that it will
work. The device can also be applied
to locomotives"
Details Of the invention have not
been given out, but it is said that one
feature is the passing Of the smoke
through a spray OF water, allowing
the gases and vapors alone to get by.
Should the claims of the Edison
company be borne out-and the ma
tion-wide reputation which it enjoys
makes a statement from it's general
manager worthy Of credence-a happy
solution of the problem has been
found The man for whom the COM
pany is named has worked many won
derfH things. The device to abate the
smoke n cinder nuisances will in a
way be linked with his name. l. may
be a trifle too early to shout, but the
Endorsement is good.

How TO Cut Down
Living Expenses

Any Fargo family can make a big
saving and also be much healthier by
eating the delicious appetizing Min
nesota" Spaghetti at least twice each
week in place OF meat.
Minnesota" Spaghetti is four times
as nutritious as beef-steak and yet
costs only about one cent a dish.
1t contains more proteids than most
foods and is therefore more strength
giving and less f~attening.
1t is fine for chiIdren-making their
bodies strong and healthy. And they
are very fond Of It's rich, nut-like
favor.
Insist on getting the genuine Min
nesota" Spaghetti, made from the
VERY BEST DURUM wheat with

UP TO TIL BUYER.

The following editorial from The
Milwaukee Leader despite it's rather
cynical sarcasm, contains some truths
worth thinking over:
The paper sole industry has assum-
ed such proportions that a measure
has been introduced in congress to
prohibit the sale of shoes represent
ed to be of leather construction when
other material Is substituted there
for
1t is ex~asperating to the citizen
when he gets caught in a. rainstorm
OF a spring freshest to find that the
soles Of his shoes have floated down
the street. He feels as If he had been
cheated. We are not surprised that
there is opposition to the pure leather
bill. There's money in paper soies.
There was opposition to the pure
food law. 1t has not abated with the
passage of the law. At last accounts
the law was still in the ring, but it
has been so modified and interpreted
by the bureaucrats at Washington
that the food aduIteration business is
looking forward to a prosperous year.
Once there was a statesman who
proposed to outlaw the sale of shoddy.
He created quite a stir. Arthur Bris-
bane wrote some powerful editorials
on the enormity of shoddy and we
thought thai the shoddy business was
going to be hurt. But the statesman
has disappeared and Mr.. Brisbane is
looking for ONE one who has 100.

which Rockefeller is charging is toe
