 Strychnine, Tinct. of Nux Vomica- Sulphate of zinc, absolute quiet, plug the ears.
 Bottles and packages containing poisons should always be plainly labeled with their names and uses. They should be kept by themselves well away from other bottles and packages and beyond the reach of children. Do not keep them at all ex- cept while in actual use with one or two exceptions. perhaps
 The antidotes have given in the list are to be found in every home. l hope no reader will ever have oc- casion to use them; but you know the old saying, Its better to be ready and not go than to go and not be ready"

HINTS AND HELPS FROM J. E. T

Editor and Cornerites: Have any of the Sisters done French hemming? Turn your hem twice, same as ever then fold backward, sew from napkin to hem over and over, same as the center seam of sheet. It is quicker done and neat.
 When you want something different, toast some bread, nicely cut with a fancy cookie cutter (hearts would be good shape for next month), grate a little old dry cheese or meat, place 8 very little in center of each piece of toast, and small bits of butter on the corner and in center, set in oven till butter melts; a stuffed olive in center of cheese or meat improves looks and taste.
 Wish I could learn to do tatting.

Two years ago an act was passed by

Two years ago an act was passed by
the legislative assembly forbidding
gambling and drinking liquor on
tranis in North Dakota. There may
have been an arrest or two, but these
laws are openly violated on trains
that pass in and out of Minot. An
other law was passed forbidding the
sale of cigarettes, but there is scarce
ly town in the state where cigarettes
cannot be bought in generous quanti-
ties. A "Snus" law was passed, Lut
we have not seen anybody suffering
for the want of snuff. A dealer in
East Grand Forks has built up large
business, furnishing North Dakotans
with the stuff. The Independent is
not defending the manufacturers of
cigarettes and snuff, which are HARM
full enough, but we merely give these
facts to show that it is hard matter
to prohibit their use by legislation, I'M
less mail order houses can be barred
from sending them to territory in
which their sale is forbidden.

Governor Hanna can feel highly
complimented over the endorsement
given him by the voters of North Da-
kota at the polls Tuesday. The Gov
ernor is not "four-fusher" in any
sense of the word and what little cam
paigning he has done, was conducted
in a dignifed manner. At every point
where he appeared, he was greeted By
large crowds, and his addresses were
more in the form of heart to heart
talks. In no instance did he ask any
one for vote, altho we know that he
is fully appreciative of the support he
received. His "business administra-
ton" was attacked by those who would
supplant him, but the voters have
shown by the results of the election
that they took those statements with a
grain of salt. It was indeed fortunate
for North Dakota that Mr.. Hanna
was reelected.

The fight for sheriff was the hardest
contest in the Ward county election.
No one worried much over the out
come, for it was realized that a good
man would be elected, no matter
whether the democratic or the repub-
lican candidate was successful. Chart
Barton, democrat, is man, highly re-
spected by all, and the fact that his
neighbors to man supported him,
speaks we'll for him John Nedreloe,
the successful candidate, is just as
we'll thought of and the Gooseneck
rolled up vote that simply could not
be overcome.

great odds. The old party lash fails
to keep the voters in line This is
rather hard on the parties, but the in
dependent spirit displayed is refresh
ing to say the least. The spirit of the
primary election is not always carried
with the voters to the polls and this is
one Of the excuses made for advocat-
ing change in the method of select
ing candidates. AS it now is, the pri-
mary is not much better than the old
convention system, and there are
many who believe that old conventions
brot forth better results.

The legislature ought to meet but
every four years instead of every two
and the law ought to be changed ac-
cordingly. Should the occasion arise
for the need of more work by the leg
islators, it is an easy matter for the
governor to call a special session. It
costs great deal of money every two
years-more than is justified from the
good that is derived. We have too
many laws on our statute as it is. If
about half of them were wiped out,
the business of the state would go
along just the same.

There are always few ''freaks" in

North Dakota from perdition is al
ready scratching his head and wonder
ing just how he is going to put his
hobby across. The we'll balanced men,
the men who are willing to give and
take, the men who are broad enough
to abide by the will of the majority
they are the legislators who will &C.
complish most.

MINOT, NORTH DAKOTA.
A LEAK IN THE COMMERCIAL
RUCKET.

Fruits and vegetables in enormous
quantities are rotting in the fields of
Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Michigan
and Ohio while the people in the cities
are paying high prices.
The United States is as far from
solving the question of getting goods
to market as in the days of our great
grandfathers. The railroad has re-
placed the ox-cart.
But where are we?
An Aurora man has just returned
from visit to northern Ohio
He says that he walked through an
orchard of five acres and practically
every foot of it was covered with rot
ting apples.
The cider mills are working night
and day trying to get some good out
of the abundant harvest.
This man dug five bushels of pota-
toes from one row in his mothers gar
den. Many more potatoes will be left
to rot in the ground because every one
has an over supply.
In the cities few miles away peo-
ople are actually facing starvation.
It so happens that the particular
garden and orchard are located on
small branch line of a big railroad
system.
For years the farmers have been
unable to ship their goods because
they couldn't get cars.
Thousands of carriers flashed by
weekly by the main line few miles
away.
Benjamin Hartwell of Chicago owns
a farm in Michigan. He tried shipping
apples and potatoes to his home city.
He found that after he had deducted
freight and express delivery charges
he could have bought his produce
cheaper of his local grocer. This sea-
son he is doing this and is feeding his
Michigan output to the hogs.
Potatoes and apples rotting on the
ground while the poor are going with
out and others are paying top prices.
In North Dakota the potato crop is
immense this year and the growers
ought to net big sum, as in Canada
and many other places there is a short
age, but our farmers have to be sat
isfied with forty or fifty cents a BUSH
ell, although the price is two or three
times this amount in other places.

A PROPER PROGRAM.

Army and navy experts are con-

for better defenses in the United
States. 81. III. s.... .t...s.
This is brought home to us with
telling force by the events in Europe.
8 Courage and patriotism win battles,
it is true, but long range artillery
guns and powerful batt1eships operat-
ed by experts are more effective.
This country is not looking for trou-
BILE. But the old adage still holds true,
"in time of peace prepare for war"

Just 210 Masons from Bottineau
county and Canada sat down at a
splendid banquet at Bottineau one
night last week. The Stars and
Stripes and the Union Jack were inter-
twined. The Americans and Canadians
as we'll expressed the hope that some
day these great countries might be
one. Mr.. Bendeke, of Grand Forks,
Norwegian consul, created good deal
mcrriment, when he remarked that
he did not see the Norwegian flag in
the room. AS matter Of consoling
himself, he turned to the Americans
and said: eve discovered you," and
to the Canadians, eve licked you;"
which no one ventured to deny.

Hammond, the democratic nominee
for governor, won in Minnesota, de-
feating Lee, republican. Hammond's
platform was the more liberal, and
when the Great Commoner, William
Jennings Bryan, was in Minnesota
campaigning for him, it was really
amusing to notice how he put the soft
pedal on in sidestepping some of the
issues.
