AN EASTER MEDITATION
(By Rev. William Mast)

The resurrection stands today as
the one u~nchallenged fact of Christian
history. 1t is as strongly attested as
the landing of the Pilgrim fathers, as
fully established as early American
history, more wildly known than u
constitution, and more deeply woven
into the life of the nations than any
other fact that has been presented to
the human mind.
U~nspeakably precious is Easter day
with it's anthems of praise, It's songs
of hope. its messages of gospel truth.
This day makes an appeal to the lat
ent faith within the heart. Mothers
who have followed their loved ones
to their graves, children who have re-
turned to their homes without their
parents, neighbors who have gone to
the silent city of the dead with their
fellow citizen whose life could i'll be
spared, receive today with thankful
hearts the message of Immortality.
And again, those who have tried to
find contentment in stately mansions,
in bank accounts, In long journeys, in
social events, in qualification, have
come back with the disappointing cry
that contentment Is not in these things
These hear with awakening faith the
argument of the apostle who said, "If
in this life only we have hope, we are
of all men the most miserable"
Then out of the home where discord
has poisoned the atmosphere, where
selfshness has withered every fruit of
peace, where purity has had to hide
her face, where sin has held sway, out
of these homes have come men and
women with the feeling that Easter
day speaks a message of pardon for all
past de%linQuencies and with happy
hearts full of hope these hear the ap.
peal, IF We would rise with Christ
seek those things that are above"
Then for multitudes whose faith
mas uCCh WCdhCuCu SuiouSu COutdCt
with infdelity, with the %selfshness OF
regenrate men. and for those who have
wavered in their devotion to truth
these receive the benediction Of this
Easter time and leaving their low
vaulted sky not only look up but move
up into a better. purer and holier at
mosphere, the atmosphere of Gods
truth.
The nation. that has followed the
risen Christ Is the nation that has
~prospered. The individual who has
listened to the call Divine, who hal
linked his life with the life Of the riser
Lord. Is the one who has blessed hu
manity, who has honored the Father
and who has helped to hasten the day
when universal peace shall rest on al
mankind.
Hail! HALL! Thou glad Easter
morn. May thy light this day not only
awaken into ewness Of life. the vege
tation Of earth, 90 that the trees. shall
bud and the flowers shall blossom
and the grass Of valley and hill side
shall spring forth. but may thy glor
ious. beautiful. respondent light dis
pei the chill Of sins long winter. ma,
il. bring ~ : message Of love and hop,
and Joy; aye more. may It enter ever,

RECORDING BRANDS
KEEPS FORCE BUSY

Bismarck, N. D., Jan. 15.-The work
of recording live stock brands which
has kept the clerical force in the office
of commissioner Of agriculture and
labor busy for the past few months is
now being brought to a close and it
Is expected that the entire matter of
re-recording brands will be disposed
OF Feb. 1 Of the present year, at which
time he department will commence
Issuing new brands. A law passed
at the last session Of the legislature
provides that all brands no. re-re-
corded by Dec. 1, 1913 would be de-
clared abandoned after Jan. l, 1914
n new certificates issued to those
VINO made application to ]re-record.
There were about $500 of the original
brand holders who made application
to re-record in time and there were
about 500 who nave come in since that
time and want their old brands re-
instated' bufthey nave to proceed as
tfough they Were registering a new
brand and have had to AXE hances
OF others being ahead of them with
applications for the same brand. No
new brands will be issued until all Of
the r~e-recording Is completed and then
they will be taken up in the order in
which the applications have been re-
ceived n the fee is 81 for each
brand instead Of % cents as was he
case In r~e-recording. A final notice
has been sent out to those who now
have uncompleted applications to re-
record in the department, with he
time limit set at Jan. % for the clean
ing up of such cases. and all applica-
tons still pending at that time will
be considered closed and the papers
returned to the applicants. Everv ono
has been given due notice of the in
tention of the department and Com
missioner Gilbreath states that this
notice will be positively final. It will
be some time before the certificates
are all sent out and it requires
voluminous and almost endless
amount Of work to make out the
certificates and to ascertain that there
are no conflicting brands issued.

INCREASED COURT COST
CAUSES CONTROVERSY

Glenburn, N. D., Jan. 15.-There is
a great deal Of dissatisfaction in this
county over the expense Of the ~increas-
ed jurisdiction Of the county court.
There is bitter opposition at its adop-
ton but the advocates Of the plan
won. The popularity of County Judge
Crewe has prevented protest but at
the, next election it Is probable that
the voters will have an opportunity
to decide whether they wish the sys-
tenn retained or rejected. The ad-
vocates for the abolition Of the in
creased jurisdiction features are con-
tldent Of winning.

7 In order that the automobile owners
of the county may take some united
action it will be necessary to either
have a county organization or several
local organizations working together.
~Fessenden already has a local auto
mobile club and at a meeting Of he
club it was decided to send an invi-
tation to all the towns and cities Of
the county, asking them to send q
committee of three to meet with a
committee from Fessenden to discuss
the proposition as to where. when
and how best to use this money, and
whether or not we should have a.
county organization.
A copy of this letter will be sent
to two or more automobile owners in
each city and town, and we ask that
the persons receiving these letters call
a meeting of the automobile owners
Of his community, n appoint a COM
mittee to meet with a committee at
Fessenden on Jan. 2S, 1914, to discuss
the matter Of organization, and any
other matter pertaining to the spend
ing Of this money.
SO that o u committee may voice
the continent of it's community we
would Euggest that you take up the
matter of how best to spend this mon
ey at your meeting. At our meeting
various opinions were expressed, all
seem to agree that this fund is too
small to build grades, and the ma
jority seem to hin that the most
good for automobile users could be OBJ
tanned If we all get together and make
plats Of Wells county showing the
main travelled roads between the diff
terent towns, n used this money
to remove the stones, fill the ruts and
place signs along those roads.
Therefore send a committee to meet
US on the above date, and let us know
prior to that date how many are COM
ing so that we may arrange accord
ingly. This years license fee will
swell the amount to over 81, 900, and
we feel that this money should not
lie die when it is SO badly needed on
the roads, and unless some action is
taken by the persons most interested
in good automobile roads, it may
eventually be used for a purpose that
will not help the ones who have paid
it into the state.
Very truly yours,
j, n. Kunkcl,
Secretary.

Guide Posts 60 the Law.

Kansas City Star: A question has
arisen whether state banks of Missouri
may enter the Federal reserve bank
family. h state attorney general has
ruled that they may.
If, later, a court should rule that
they have violated a state law in en-
tering, the attorney generals advice
should save the state banks, n doubt
less will I'VE them, from any punitive
consequences of their acts.
Plainly, the law works correctly in
this case. Just as plainly it works in
correctly when business cannot know
beforehand, by official declaration.
whether any course that is open to it
will be j~udicially held to be punishable.

of transports for that purpose. The
military authorities are now engaged
in ascertaining the comparative cost Of
the two systems. The only data now
available are in regard to the harbor
boat system operated under the depot
quartermaster in this city, to serve tho
forts in the harbor. A report from the
depot quartermaster here shows that
the service now being rendered by
government owned vessels is over $26,-
600 cheaper per year than the same
service rendered by private owned
vessels under contract.

Plan to Use Auto Fund

~Fessenden, N. D, Jan. 15.-The Fes-

following letter, which is self-explan-
atory:
~oFessenden, N. D., JAM. 10, 1914
Dear sir: This county has on hand
$4,000 which it received from the
state as motor license fees paid by
automobile owners of this county. Tho
law provides that this money shall be
expended by the county under the d.
rection of the board of county COM
missioners upon the main travelled
roads Of the county.
AS the money has been paid solely
bv automobile owners and is not a
part of the general revenue fund Of the
county. the commissioners justly hold
that the automobile owners should
have a voice in saying where his
money should be used.

New England. NJ, D., Jan. 15.-The
freak weather in North Dakota this
winter is said by early pioneers to be
identical with that experienced here in
the fall of 1890 and early part of 1891,
which were followed fby the best crops
in the history of the western part of
North Dakota. There was neither
u nor rain during the late fall and
winter, out the following spring and
summer made up for the deficiency
and vegetation of all forms grew riot
ously. Oats yielded 100 bushels per
acre and wheat and other grains ac-
cordingly. The. farmers confidently.
anticipate 1914 will be a banner crop
year because Of the similarity of the
conditions.
