WANTS A GENERAL ANTEFRAUD
LAW

The Grand Forks Ti.nes-Herald, III
discussing the law against fraud,
authorizations and Misrepresentation
in general, suggests that instead or
trying to cover each item by u sepa'
rate bill, as some Legislators seem
to ibc trying to do, suggests that there
bc a general bill covering this point,
which will prohibit the Offering FOR
sale of anything which is not exactly
as represented. On this subject the
Herald says:
Legislation is proposed against
fraud in the manufacture or sale OF
automobile tires, and also against the
adulteration OF fungicides and insectl'
cides, Probably other similar laws
q against other sorts of fraud and adul-
iteration are also pending, but these
are not at the moment recalled. We
are getting the statutes burdened
with a lot of special legislation which
is bound TO be confusing, and the pur-
pose Of which could be and should be
reached through the passage OF a sin
gle carefully drafted law prohibiting
fraud, adulteration, misbranding and
MISREPRESENTATION, no matter what
the article vended may be. AS 1t Is
we have a special law covering each
special case, as people have been able
to think of them. But our law makers
cannot think Of them all, and the av-
erage library would not contain the
many volumes of Il code which i'll
cluded all of them, ever If they could
all be thought of. Some day some
person who has bought a piece Of fur
niture on the representation that it
was solid mahogany, and found after
ward that it was veneer, will want 4
law against the misbranding Of fur
niture. Such a piece Of fraud should
be punished, hut there is no need for
"a special law on it. The whole thing
could be covered in a short and sim
Dle law against misrepresentation,
and the trick would be done.

MAKING THE PANAMA. ISSUE
PLAIN,

Secretary Knox reduces the dispute
with England regarding the manage
ment OF the Panama canal to It's low.
est terms, says the st. Louis Globe
Democrat. In his reply to the British
protest against the exemption OF
American coasting vessels from canal
tolls the secretary removes British
fears on two essential points. Our
coasting vessels will not be allowed
to carry their operations into foreign
competitive fields, and foreign ship
ping will not be called on to make up,
IN the shape OF increased rates, the
tolls RENTED to United States vessels.
If these disclaimers fail to meet Eng
lands objections, a special commits
sion is proposed to deal with the mat.
tiers at issue. Thus the way is opened
for a speedy and amicable settlement
of all the points in dispute between
the two countries
This contemplates an adjustment in
which only two parties will be repre-.
scented, and it will be arranged by
diplomatic processes and not through
arbitration. The dispute will be han
died by Great Britain and the United
States alone. and the aid, of neither
The Hague court nor any other
tribunal will be invoked. 1t would
seem to the average unbiased person
taht the secretary's proposition is
fair. Our own vessels have certain
privileges in U coastwise trade,
and these are not added to or dimin-
ished in the treatment accorded to
them in the canal. In that trade they
will soon have an Unrestricted field.
But they will not be permitted to 80
beyond that sphere. In the strictly
foreign trade they will not compete
with British or any other non.Ameri'

Joseph Williams, one of the, largest
and most progressive farmers in Grand
Forks county, who Is also a breeder of
Percheron horses, is among the guests
in the city. Mr.. Williams is a neighbor
and warm personal friend of Hon. w. s..
Dean of that county, one of the members
OF the house. and will be Mr.. Deans
guest while in the city.
George Hart, of Ryder. is in the city
looking after his candidacy for game
warden. Mr.. Hart is one Of the most
popular boys in the state and the ,rumor
Is that his chances are good. He Is an

an and a most thorough sportsman. All
who know George hope to see him land,
and his appointment would he greeted
with welcome.
One of the prominent visitors in the
capital city is Major Murphy of Minot.
Probably there is not a man in the state
today who occupies a more prominent po-
sition in the acquaintance Of the people
than he. 1t vas about "a years ago,
when a young man but a little past his
HldJOTIty lIdl IIcSlucul a.
his first appointment in Dakota territory,
tina he appointed Mr.. Murphy as major
Of the Berthold agency. This position
Mr.. Murphy held for a number Of years
with great credit to himself and to the
office. Later, when Ward county was
organized MT. Murphy became the ruling
power, and maintained 1t up to the time
when that empire swayed the whole state
in the political field. The division OF
Ward county cut down that power to a
certain extent, but today Mr.. Murphy
stands Of the strongest personalities
in the political fabric Of the state. And
it matters not whether lie be friend or
foe, every man in the state weighs his
counsel and has regard for what Mr..
Murphy says. Mr.. Murphy has beben
down east on business. and while on his
return to he Magic City he came round
this way just to renew acquairtances
and to get in touch with conditions. He
is interested in matters Of state today
as in the past and will continue to do
so as long as he lives. for the major is
a thorough Dakotan.

MARK TWAIN IN UNIFORM.
Occasion When tho Humerist Posed -
I'll General Sherman.

Albert Bigelow Paine in Harper's
tells of. the time when Mark Twain on
his way to West Point to deliver an
address found himself in the same
train with General Sherman. who had
been attending q dinner in Hartford.
"A pleasant incident followed. which
Clemens himself used to relate. Gen.
eral Sherman attended the banquet and
Secretary OF War Robert Lincoln.
Next morning Clemens and Twichell
were leaving for West Point. where
they were to address the. military stu.
dents, guests On the same special train
on which Lincoln aud Sherman had
their private car This q was ut the
end Of the train, and when the two
passengers reached the station Sher.
man and Lincoln were out on the rear
platform addressing the multitude.
Clemens and Twichell went in and.
taking seats, waited for them.
AS the speakers finished the train
started, but they still remained out
side, bowling and waving to the Assem-.
bled citizens. so that 1t was under good
Roadway before they came in. Sher'
man came up to Clemens. who sat
smoking unconcernedly.
"'Well,' be said. who told you you
could 50 in this carr
Nobody said Clemens.
"'Do you expect to pay extra fare?
asked Sherman.
".No,' said Clemens; I don't expect
to pay any fare
"'Oh. you don't! Then you'll work
your way
"Sherman took OF his coat and mill.
tary hat and made Clemens put them
on.
Now said he. whenever the train
stops you get out on the platform and
represent me and make a speech
1T was not long before the train
stopped. and Clemens, according to or.
ders. stepped out on the rear platform
and bowed to the crowd. There was
a cheer at the sight of his military uni
form. Then the cheer waned, became
q murmur Of uncertainty, followed BY
IN undertone Of discussion. Presently
somebody said:
".Say, that amt Sherman; that's
Mark Twain which brought another
cheer.
Then Sherman had to come out too.
and the result was that both spoke.
They kept this up at the different sta
lions, and sometimes Robert. Lincoln
came out with them. and when there
was time all three spoke, much to the
satisfaction Of their audiences"

Keeping Peace at Homo.

How do they do 1.-THE couples who
win the Dunmow 1itches by going a
whole year without a quarrel7 Tact
undoubtedly plays a part. One recalls
the simple system Of a Sussex couple
to keep peace Mt home. When the wife
came in a little rufled she dung her
shawl over her left shoulder. and the
husband knew that silence was golden.
If he came home with hat cooked for.
ward the wife knew that something
was wrong. and she likewise lay low.
It's the simplest tact that keeps the
peace at home. where you may never
be at a loss for the quarrel you look
