THE MEASURE OF A MAN.


Not only is he to be a political leader
but an industrial leader as well. this
new president of ours. In moments of
such great personal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT as
were his last Tuesday afternoon few
men would stop to think of that under
current of our countrys life which has
been clamoring for recognition these
many years and fewer men would have
laid so much stress upon it as did
Woodrow Wilson in his inaugural ad-
dress.
For it is in these few lines that we
see the measure of the man who is to
be our president during the next four
years, a precedent-breaking president,
q president who is close to that great
host of us who are usually forgotten
except at election time:
I'VE have been proud of our In
dustrial achievements, but we have
not hitherto stopped thoughtfully
enough to count the human cost,
the cost of lives snuffed out, Of
energies overtaxed and broken,
the fearful physical and spiritual
cost to the men and women upon
whom the dead weight and burden
Of It all has fallen pitilessly the
years through. The groans and
agony of 1t all had not yet reached
our ears. the solemn, moving un-
dertone Of our life, coming up out
Of the mines and factories and out
Of every home where the struggle
had it, intimate and familiar seat.
With the great government went
many deep secret things which we
too long delayed to look into and
scrutinixe with candid, fearless
eyes The. great government we
loved has too often been made use
Of for private and selfish purposes.
and those who used It had forgot
ten the people"
None Of our presidents has struck
such note before. note in which the
utmost sincerity II heard, In which
peAls forth the ambition Of the coun.
try's president that he be able to lead
the workers Of the nation. the totter.
Ing. sleepy. age-old children. the bent,
worn. sad women and mothers, the
fathers whose unceasing toll seems Of
no avail, out OF the maelstrom Of dis
content at least little way~to the
plac4 whore I'll may live and work and
play Alike The equalising Of the bur-
dens Of this life such il to be this
presidents aim.
Listen, then. to his parting word:
This II not day of triumph; 1t
Ii day Of dedication. Here mus
ter not the forces OF party, but the
forces Of humanity. Mems hearts
walt upon us: mems lives hang in
the balance: mems hopes call upon
M to say what we. will do. Who
shall live up to the great trust?
Who dares fail to try? summon
all honest men, all patriotic, all
forward looking men, to my side.
God helping me. l will not fail
them II they will but counsel and
[ sustain me.
May we wish him all godspeed!

FIVE RECOMMENDATIONS.

What will be the policies Of the Will

The adverse vote on the woman SUI.
frage bill in the senate on Saturday
was a surprise to a good many people.
1t was generally assumed that the
bill would be passed with little opposi-
ton. because there has been conduct
ed a very vigorous campaign in its in.
terest. and SO far az We know no ac.
tive work has been done against 1t.
There is also evidence in connection
with all matters OF legislation some
disposition to follow the crowd. and,
as many states have adopted woman
suffrage 1t is expected that one after
another the other states will fall into
line. Undoubtedly the attitude of
many Of the senator's on the question
was governed by their recognition Of
the very potent fact that most women
do not want to vote. Some Of them
are Indifferent on the subject. A good
many have very clear convictions that
the proposed change would tend rather
to injure than to benefit society. and
are therefore firm in their opposition.
There is. however. in this state at least.
no organized campaign against the
movement. and on this account it has
generally been assumed that the bill
would pass the legislature without
much opposition, whatever might be
Its fate when 1t came to a popular
vote.

Epping Man Nearly Frozen
to Death, After Visiting
Lidless Town.

Williston. N. D.. Jan. 27.-Knut
Bake, a single man Of 80, who re.
sides near Epping, Is in a terrible
plight as the result to a visit to the
shrine of Bacchus. that attracts many
thirsty pilgrims to the lidless village
Of Mondak. Mont.
knut, after absorbing 80 much fiery
liquid that he felt himself immune
to all attacks Of the cold, wandered
out of town, probably with the idea
Of getting home. When Just across
the line into North Dakota the cold
compelled him to seek the shelter Of
q straw stack where he lay slowly
freezing for twenty-four hours. When
accidentally discovered by a deputy
sheriff from Valley county he was
pretty nearly a human iceberg. His
legs. arms and face we're. frozen hard
as the earth itself. That life still re-
manned in him was a wonder. He
was taken to Mondak where his froz-
en- members were kept packed in ice
to prevent rapid thawing.
Bake was brought to Williston by
train Monday evening and taken to
a hospital and given the best possible
care. He is believed to have O fight
ing chance Tor his life but his ex.
perience will leave him more or less
crippled.
