ORGANIZING MOOSE LODGE

Nearly enough IMPLICATIONS
have been received to organize a
Wahpeton chapter of the Loyal
Order of Moose. A. M. Baker,
deputy national director and B.
D. Ash, deputy supreme organ
izer Of the lodge, have been in
the city for a few weeks in the
interests of the order. The Moose
started with one lodge in 1906. At
present there are nearly 1,0OO,-
900 members in 1871 lodges. 1t
is a beneficial organization in
which business is mingled with
pleasure

LIFE CONVICT lMvEmTs RAIL

6uU8 VOWVuOu uWV8W - veSSUs
Out of cell in the North Da-
kota pententiary where lifer has
worked for years in the perfec-
, ton of his invention, has come
what railroad officials. believe is
a real safety rail. 1t may revo-
lutionize the manufacture of the
steel rails and eliminate wrecks
and for the inventor, Peter Olson
it may possibly bring riches and
freedom.
The first test by railroads Of
this safety device will be made at
Gary, Indiana, in July, the 500
railroad having become interest,"
I'd in the invention.
F. o. Hellstrom, warden Of the
state penitentiary, is responsible
for the opportunity that Olson
was given to work out his inven-
ton. Several years ago Olson
laid before Mr.. Hellstrom the
plan he had in mind, and the
warden gave him assistance in
the matter of providing working
materials, etc. All of the work
was done by Olson in his cell.
where he labored day after day.
, till long into the night.
The Hellstrom-Olson rail, as
described by a Grand Forks rail-
way expert, is divided into two
parts, one part serving as the
tread to receive the wheel pres
sure; the other part being a re-
inforcing bar which holds the
tread in position and reinforces
it. 1t is necessary that the tread
should be hard in order to with
stand the wear of constant use.
This necessitates the use Of q
higher carbon steel which crys-
talizes very easily in cold weather
and also from other, causes, and
breakages are quite frequent.
The reinforcing bar is placed
back Of the rail in such a man
ner as to sustain it and absorb q
portion of the load and shock.
This bar, not being exposed to
the wear and direct shock and
hammering of the wheels, does
not have to be hard and can be
made of low carbon: steel of great
tensile strength and toughness..
The two parts are bottled to-
gether and spiked to the ties and
if from any cause the tread por-
tion should snap or break, ID
would still be held in place by the
reinforcing bar, which will not
break because it is made of q
low carbon steel and will not crys
talize. By this combination Of the
hard and soft material perfect
safety is attained, also greater
strength and durability. There
are a number of economic fea-
lures over the ordinary rail. The
tread portion is made up in such
shape as to permit of it being
reversed, thus giving two wearing
surfaces or a double use Of the
rail.

MAN FOUND IN RIVER

Last Saturday afternoon a man
was seen floating down the river
nea rthe pumping station. He
had evidently been in the water
about a week. From papers
found on him it was learned he
was Owen Trainer, bricklayer,
and had worked in this city.
There were no indications of foul
play and it is thought that his
death was accidental. He has a
wife in Minneapolis.

SOUTHERN YUKON
 IS NOT PLEASED

The members of the Yukon council for Southern Yukon, Messrs. Phelps and Martin, were given lesson at the late session of that body at Daw- son which will cause them to shud- der every time they hear the word Minority" during the balance of their lives. Their lesson was this
 In the budget originally handed down by Commissioner Black no ap- propriations was made for road from Kluane to the head of White riv- era route travelled over by a score of heavily laden freight teams the past two months, which travelling was frought with great hardships owing to. the unimproved condition of the trail between the two points mentioned. Captain Martin being the first of the members for Southern Yukon to reach Dawson, at once got busy on the budget. shaving little there and trim ming a little here, until the sum of five thousand dollars had been saved and trimmed from the other approp- riations for Southern Yukon, which amount our two members confidently hoped to have appropriated for the trail above mentioned And right here is where our members realized the hopeless insignificance of minority
 When a bill was introduced to ap- propriate to improving the Kluane- White River trail the five thousand dollars transferred from other south ern Yukon allowances the six mem- bers for northern Yukon awoke to the fact that, having the numeral strength they might just as well have that five thousand dollars expended in their own domain. and this they proceeded to do by substituting the words "Cof- fee Creek" for "Kluane", and divert ing the fund worked up by the mem- bers for Southern Yukon to that route making the trail to White river start from the mouth of Coffee creek on the Yukon river, 25O miles below Whitehorse instead of from Kluane lake, to which point there is a good road from Whitehorse,
 When our members realized what was being done they remonstrated most vigorously, but to no avail. They even made strenuous efforts to retain half the amount, $2,5OO, for the Klu- ane route. but were unable to do any thing against the other six members of the board, two being a hopeless mi nority as compared with the former number.
 This explains why the route over which more than fifty tons of supplies were freighted from Whitehorse to the head of White river this spring at great expense and hardship is left without one dollar of public money to better it's condition-Whitehors Star.

A DUTY FOR ALASKA DEMOCRATS

THIS day. when the people of Alaska are beng recognized as the arbterS their destiny and when the Deocr party is in control the affairs of the Natlon more than uSu responsibilities fall upon those citizens of this territory who are members of the dominant political party TherS IS the eSpo bity keep the public welfare constantly uppermoSt m and to echew unSeem pickering and contenOn They Shouo not forget that while the welfare of all the people o the North dependent the character of the govern ment that of them not here for purpose o engaging the of politics. In measure for yet partisan poc enter largely into our affairs the Democrats ot Alaska have the keeping welfare of the Territory Tn he hands and the weight of their obligation made far great CT by the fact that all the citizens are not Democrats They are degree acting as their brothers Keepers in the North and they afford to be unfalthu to the u teeShip The Democrats of Alaska have important things to dc than to permit rivalry office degenerate into quarreS or h nurse factona differences would destroy their useful ness to Alaska and deprive them of all chance to serve the pe ole of the Territory it is their duty to serve them
 Commenting upon this phase of the political situation m the North the Fairbanks Times very pertnenty says
 Yesterday marked an epoch in the history of the
 Northland. The appointment of Major Strong as gov
 ernor of Alaska and Charles E. Davidson as surveyor
 general removes all doubt as the attitude of the Pres
 den toward the long-negcted Territory He has demon
 strated uncertain manner that 1t IS his desire that
 AaskanS shall opportunity to govern themselves
 during his administration, and henceforth 1t Will rest
 largely with people themselves whether or not the at-
 fairs of the Territory administered satisfactorily We
 have for the privilege of occupying our own oces
 and our hopes are realization The principal ot-
 ces of the Territory have been named and IS reason
 able to assume that the appointment of other AaskanS
 will follow in their order provided the names of worthy
 citizens are put forward and the noise of facdona strife
 does not frghten the President from his good resolve
 "The Democrats of the Territory for the time
 being the cusodians of the public welfare and as such
 they should avoid carefully the pitfal which brought
 about the demoraizaton of their predecessors in au-
 thory They should be willing to put aside their own
 little differences the greater glory of rendering the
 Territory real service They should realize that the
 time is past for quarreing among themselves They
 should do as Bryan and Clark dd-forget the past for
 the sake of the future. If they will do that they will
 make for greater Democracy the Territory and the
 President will have no ocason to depart from policy
 which is so full of promise for Alaska.

A MATTER OF VIEWPOINT

Come to think of it those across the-pond commentators who think Mir and Mrs. Bryan are narrow and prov incial because they don't serve wine at diplomatic dinners, are possibly themselves the provincials. Are We to assume that in the Saint James view, to serve or not to serve wine makes the difference between broad ness and narrowness, between cos mopolitanism and proyincialism?

CHAPTER XVI.

Mahomed Rides Alone.
It was as If the stiffness of the des-
ert itself had encompassed the two
men. In their ears the slither OF the
brittle palmleaves against one an
other and the crackle of the fire were
no longer sounds. They stared at
Fortune with that ~speechless wonder
Of men who had come Unexpectedly
upon a wrath. What with the faint
glow Of the FIRE upon one side OF her
and the pallor Of moonshine upon the
other, she did indeed resemble mans
conception of the spiritual.
Ryanne was first to pull himself to-
gether.

/ am. I'd have cut out my tongue
rather than have hurt you. l thought

the three.) "Why, hundreds of men
and women who regularly go to

Uncle Sam out Of a few dollars. Here's
Jones, for instance; he would have
tried to smuggle in that rug. Isn't
that right, Jones?"
"Of Counsel" cried George eagerly,
though scarcely knowing what he
said. "I'd have done It"
And you wouldn't call Percival a
thief" with a forced laugh. TITS like
this, Fortune. Uncle Sam wants al
together too much rake-of. He doesn't
give us a sc IRE deal; and so we even

villainies behind closed doors"
George listened, sitting as motion
less as a Buddhist idol. Why couldn't
he think Of something? Why couldn't
be come to the aid Of the woman ne
loved in this her hour Of trial? A fine
lover, forsooth! To sit there ike a
yokel, stupidity! Could he offer to
lend her money? A thousand times.
no! And he could not ask her to
marry him; it would not have been
fair to either. She would have mis-
understood; she would have seen not
love but pity, and refused him. Nell
ther she nor Ryanne suffered more IN
spirit than he did at that moment.
Jones, for Gods sake, wake up and
suggest something! You know lots
Of decent people. Can't you think OF
some one?"
But for this call George might have
continued to grope in darkness. In
stantly he saw a way. He jumped to
his feet and seized her by the hands,
boyishly.
Fortune, Ryanne is right. I've
found a way. MI. Mortimer, the pres.
ident Of my firm, is an old man, kindly
and lovable. He and his wife are
| childless. They'll take you. Why, it's
as easy as talking"
She leaned back against the draw.
ing Of his hands. She was afraid that
in his eagerness he was going to take
her in his arms. She wondered why,
Of a sudden, she had become so weak.
"IIl cable the moment we reach
port" he said, as If reaching port un.
der the existing conditions was a
thing quite possible. will you go to
them? Why, they will give you ev'
cry care in the world. And they will
love you as . as you ought to
be loved!"
Ryanne turned away his head.
Fortune was too deeply absorbed by
her misery to note how near George
had come to committing himself.
Thank you. Mr.. Jones: thank you.

BURNED AND ITcHED BADLY

"A year ago I received a very severe
burn on my left arm. 1 caught cold in
it and it was all sore and liberated.
The ore was as large as a silver dol
lar. It was all red and infamed and
had pus running out Of it. I suffered
terribly from burning pain; could not
sleep for two weeks it burned and
itched SO badly. I applied - Salve,
- Salve and a salve my druggist
recommended as his own, but got no
relief. I then commenced using the
Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I bathed
the burned parts with Cuticura Soap
and applied the Cuticura Ointment on
a linen bandage. I got relief from the
first, and my arm healed nicely. l was
soon able to be at work again. Had /
