the defeat Of Roosevelt. Nobody
with good common sense believes
that six and a half million Of the
American people voted for radical
tariff revision or favor it under
any circumstances. Nobody at all
! well informed believes that the
plurality Of the American voters
who elected Wilson voted for him
on the merits Of the controversy
between Republicanism and Dem
ocracy. Nobody Of intelligence
believes that the tariff was the de
cisivc Issue in the late campaign.
Under normal conditions Wilson
would have been showed under
by IA tremendous majority, if the
customary lines had been drawn.
Rather than see Roosevelt sue
cccd, enough voters east their
ballots for Woodrow Wilson 20
elect him by the largest clectora!
plurality even given to IA candi-
date for the presidency. That Is
the simple fact, which buncombc
and political 1rickcry cannot alter
or affect.
The indications point to a typi-
cal small-borr administration,
with the Democratic leaders the
ones whom the new president de-
slrcs most to 'plcase,' and not
the people as a whole or even
those who made his election pos
siblc. OF course. the worst that
Wilson is likely to do would be
preferable to Roosevcltism, but it
would be pleasing to note that
Mr.. Wilson regards himself as in
some sense the president Of the
American people, and not Of Bry-
an, Clark and Underwood. The
American people are well worth
plcasing-when they know exact
~ what they want: provided al
ways that they ought to get what
they want Within these limits
the American people have some
claim upon the consideration Of
the man whom they voted to hon
or with four years in the White
House

A Chilly Forecast.

The earth is growing in bulk on ac-
count of the meteoric dust that fails on
it. 1t has recently been estimated that
100 tons fall daily over the surface OF
the globe, and that millions OF years
hence this will have increased the
thickness Of the earth considerably.
This would have a tendency to bring
US closer to the sun. But centrifugal
force is augmented at the same time IN
greater proportion aud counteracts this
tendency; consequently the earth would
be swept away from the sun. with the
result that its distance from that body
would be considerably augmented.
This is spoken of as having possibly
happened to some Of the larger outer
planets, notably Jupiter, in the remote
past.-Harper's.

ANOTHER SESSION.

The thirteenth legislative SEES
sion is about to convene and many
Of the mcmbers-clect have already
arrived at the capital city, pos
sibly somewhat earlier than in
previous sessions.
The membership Of the coming
session will be made up Of a great
many new men, who possibly will
visit Bismarck for the first time.
During the past few years the
state has developed rapidly. and
many Of its new citizens have adj
vanced into prominence so rapid,
~ that within a very short time
they have been chosen to fill some
of the most distinguished places
in the state.
True the assembly will contain
many members who have had
years Of experience as legislators.
and who are 50 familiar in Bis
marck that they are almost con
sidered regular residents here,
and to them as well as the new
members. the Tribune extends a
hearty welcome to the capital
city. .
The citizens of Bismarck. the
Tribune is convinced. may well
feel proud of the city that mem
hers and attaches Of the legisla-
t,ire will find upon their arrival
here. Every advantage that can
be found in metropolitan center
even larger than Bismarck is at
forded those who will make their
residence here during the next
two months. A hospitablc lot Of
people live in Bismarck, and the
new arrival always finds the hand
Of welcome waiting to greet
them.
Bismarck always awaits with
pleasure the converting Of a legis-
lative session. Some Of the best
people Of North Dakota make
their homes here during that time.
and it cannot be gainsaid but
what Bismarck always does it's
share toward making that period
a pleasant one for it's temporry
residents. ,.
The Tribune hopes that the
members, many Of whom will be
accompanied by their wives, will
find this one Of the most pleasant
epochs Of their lives, and trusts
that it's visitors during this period
will take the opportunity Of max
ing themselves feel perfectly at
home. The town is theirs as long
as they remain.

PLEASING THE D

President-Elect Wilson an.
nounces that he will try his best
to "'please the Democratic lead
ers," in the matter of tariff re-
vision, and for that reason he will
call a special session of congress
within a few weeks after his in
auguration. "The sooner we get
at it the better is the sentiment
expressed by a number of these
leaders whom the incoming pres
ident is so anxious to please, and
there is every probability that
congress will "get at it, as soon
as possible and stay at it until
the job is finished, says the Wash
ington Star.
But what of the idea Of pleas
ing the people, ever the people
who elected him, instead Of the
Democratic leaders? Mr.. Wilson
cannot be SO blind to all the facts
Of the situation as to imagine that
the people who voted for him did
so with any implied understand
ing that he was to call a special
session Of congress before the
presidential chair was warm. The
people who really elected Wilson
were the Republicans that refused
to vote for Roosevelt and voted
for the Democratic nominee with
the avowed purpose of insuring

AN ARCTIC ADVENTURE.
Nanssn's Daring and Perilous Swim
For His Drifting Boats.

For His Drifting Boats.
Among the perilous adventures OF
the Nansen arctic expedition was the
narrow escape Of Nansen and Johan.
sen on their return trip to the Fran
after their unsuccessful dash for the
pole. After many months OF hardship
a narrow channel opened In the ice.
and they launched the two light kataks
that they had carried OH their sledges
for more than Il year. A few days aft
erward disaster nearly put an end to
the expedition. The incident is related
in "The Siege and Conquest OF the
North Pole" by Mr.. George Bryce.
In the evening their legs felt shf
with sitting in the kaiaks all day, and
they landed on the edge Of the ice SO
that they might stretch them a little.
After the kaiaks. which were dashed
together. had been moored by means
Of one Of the braces they assembled a
hummock close by and had been stand
ing there only q moment when johann
sen raised the cry that the kaiaks were
adrift.
They ran to the edge of the ice, but
the boats were already a little way on
and were drifting quickly. The posi-
ton was a terrible one. for all they
possessed was on board. Nansen at
once threw off some Of his clothing,
handed his watch TO Johansen and
sprang into the icy water, He knew
that II the boats were lost it meant
death to him and his companion At
first it seemed more than doubtful
whether he could manage to regain
them. When he got tired he turned
over and swan on his back. At length
he gained a little and redoubled his
exertiOns. -.. .r}-. :,
BY this time Nansen felt his limbs
stiffening and losing all feeling. His
strokes became more and more feeble,
but the distance from the kaiaks be-
came shorter. and at last he was able
to grasp a snowshoe that lay across
the sterns. He now tried to pull him
self up. but his body was so stiff with
cold that he could not do so. After a
little he managed to swing n leg up
to the edge Of the sledge that was
dashed to the deck and then raised tue
rest Of his body. They were saved!
With some difficulty he padded the
kaiaks back to %Johansen, who admitted
that these were the worst moments he
had ever lived through. Jobansen now
pulled off Nansen's wet clothes. put Oh
the few dry mes they had In reserve,
spread the sleeping bag upon the ice
and covered Nansen with the sail and
everything he could find to keep out
the cold. The next day hansen was
all right again. and in the evening
they pressed forward one more on the
march that finally brought them out Of
the arctic.

A LOGICAL

There seems an element of a
certain sort of logic in Gov.
Blcasc' s wholesale pardoning Of
convicts in South Carolina. On
the day before Christmas he re-
leased half a hundred men who
had been convicted Of crimes af-
ter trial by jury, and turned them
loose upon society again. for soci-
ETY. to deal with as best it can.
The recent action Of Gov. Dona-
ghey Of Arkansas, in releasing.
under pardon, nearly 400 convicts
in that state can be defended as
at least a protest against condi-
tons which the Arkansas COVER
nor claims to be intNIerable. Re
Teasing more than two score con-
vlcts at n time, without de-
Tending the act as a measure Of
public policy, can only be unde"-
stood in n way. 1t is contempt
of law, expressing itself through
an abuse of law.
This, in Gov. Blease. is logical
enough. When he cried "to he'll
with the constitution in the con-
ference of governors at Rich
mond, he cried against the right
OF trial by jury which the con-
stitutlon guarantees. His cry was
also against the jury system it.
self, which that instrument les-
tablishes and safeguards. And it
was not less a cry against. jury
verdicts in deciding either the
guilt or innocence Of accused per-
sons, since assailing the organic
law must always involve and in
clude every instrumentality Of
government the law has created.
In Gov. Blease'S case, the assault
made was, made upon that partic-
ular part Of the organic law in
which the duties and powers Of
courts and juries are asserted and
in some measure defined The
logic in Blease's case, then, is
that a jury verdict of guilt can
weigh no more in his estimation
that a jury verdict Of acquittal.
Blease is as ready to turn loose
fifty convicts convicted after trial
by jury as he would be to hang
an equal number of men acquitted
by juries.
Blease grows more and more an
interesting study. He is the first
logical anarchist ever elected to
exalted office in any American
state. The greatest surprise Of
him is that he is the product Of
that state which for generations
stood as the fruit and flower Of
one Of the most conservative aris-
tocracies the world has ever seen.
The aristocracy never defed nor
condemned the constitution, but
sought to interpret it for it's own
ends. Blease, the anarchist, makes
no pretense Of Interpretation.
And he is a logical anarchist in
his release Of a large body Of men
convicted by due process Of law,
such an act being a logical part
of his claim that men should
sometimes be hanged without
such process. Blease is hewing to
the line. let the chips fall where
they may.

The Secret Of Dry FARMING.

When rain falls it does not actually
soak into the earth, but bores its way
In, forming tiny tubes. These tubes
are SO small that it would be impos-
sible to insert hair in one of their
without bursting it's walls Sometimes
the tubes are bored down to depth
of four or five feet When the surface
dries, the water evaporates from the
tubes just as it would from a pipe. II
the tube is twisted it takes longer
for the water to evaporate. If one
takes rake and stirs the ground aft
er each rain, he breaks the tops of the
tubes, and the water will stand in
them for months. In this way the
farmers of the west on the semi-arid
lands, store the rainfall one year. and
raise crop of wheat every other
year-there being sufficient water in
two years, but not enough in one, to
raise crop.
