WOODROW WILSON'S BOOK

The publication today. of a book by
Woodrow Wilson, says The Forum, is
one of the most important political
events of the spring. Indeed, it is one
of the most striking events of the polit-
ica] events. of the nation. Never before
has a president-elect. on the I've of his
Inauguration addressed to the country a
profession of his faith and a statement
of his intentions.
z 1t is true that Mr.. Wilson said many
of these things during the campaign.
But, judging from the sensation caused
by his Chicago speech in January, it is
one thing for "a candidate for the presi-
dency to say something and quite an
other for a president-eiect 10 say it. Mr..
Wilson. in The New. Freedom, repeats
all that he said during the campaign.
lint adds TO it many declarations in
newly systematized form. which. from

SCHOOL FOR DICKIN
SON

Bismarck Daily Tribune - Among
the bills recently introduced in the
senate is n that was offered by Senator
M. L. Mcbride, which would establish
a normal school at Dickinson.
The ambition on the part of the sena-
tor from Stark is a laudable one. and
he has every reason to be Jealous in his
attempt to secure a state institution for
the state but what will admit that
Dickinson as d city has become a CEN
ter that must be reckoned with in the
development of North Dakota.
No better class of enterprising people
ever built up a commercial center than
did those who blazed the trail in early
days and made the spot where now
stands that little metropolis in the
western part of North Dakota than those
energetic people who have made Dickin-
son the city of eminence as il stands
today.
Whether or not Dickinson is GRANTED
this request this session of the legisla-
ture, that is set out in MIR. McBride's
measure, it will cause other represen.
tatives in both branches of the state to
realize that the western part of the
state is forging to the front and devel-
oping at a faster rate than they probab-
ly ever comprehended.
People in other centers of the state
are so wrapped upland they are to be
commended for their spirit-in the adj
vancement of their " communities
that tn ey oftimes forget how fast other
communities might be advancing along
with them. and when Mr.. Mcbride in
troduced his measure it was a good time
to ponder over the fact how fast North
Dakota is growing.
Dickinson's hope is soon to be real
lied and the county of Stark is to be
congratulated upon having as their rep
resentative in the upper branch of the
present assembly a man who is such a
loyal exponent of his own constituents.

The PRESS is willing at all times to
further any legitimate move for the
benefit of Dickinson, bu, we do not fall
for the bogus railroad schemes of C. F.
Merry. Our readers, or the most of
them. know that he has been carrying
around blue prints for railroads and all
sorts of get-rich-quick paper schemes
for the last quarter of a century. His
last scheme of a road from Portal. on
the Canadian border to Rapid City. S.
D., via Dickinson. has absolutely MOTH
ing back of it. Such wildcat talk
hurts and tends to make people dis
trust any legitimate move that may be
made.

Vino} is the most efficient strength
creator for such women. 1t Is the
medicinal elements of the Gods livers
contained in Vinol, aided by the blood
making and strengthening properties
of tonic iron, which makes it so far
superior to all other tonics to build
up health and strength for weak,
tired, ailing women. 1t contains no
oil and has a delicious taste.
We give back your money If Vinol
does not do all that we claim.

Test Your Seed Corn.

We are deeply interested this
year in seeing the farmers OF
Montgomery and other Kentucky
counties try the Testing of their
Seed Corn" and wonder now how
many of them are making the test.
Try it and see how much of the
seed will grow and how much will
die. Won't YOU make the attempt
to better your condition, or will
you continue in the same old hap
hazard manner, trusting to luck
and relying upon providence9 The
day of Chance" has passed and
gone. The Maker of All will do
his part if you will do yours. The
day of certainty has arrived, and
if you will only use the means you
have in an intelligent manner you
will be sure to get a whole crop
instead of half one. Test the
seed corn and make the trial. 1t
will more than pay you for your
trouble. Blue Grass Journal.
