RuNGE's GOOD WORK.

ssive editors of the state, owner and
publisher of The Walsh County Re-
cord, at Grafton, has the following
comment:
When the law creating the office Of
fire marshal was passed by the last
Legislative assembly, we. along with
a large portion of the citizens Of the

more salaried jobs without return OF

An exchange says: The freak
weather In North Dakota this winter
is said By early pioneers to be identi-
cal with that experienced here in the
fall Of 1880 and early part Of 1891,
which were followed by the best crops
in the history Of North Dakota. There
was neither snow NOR rain during the
late fan and winter, but the following
spring and summer made up for the
deficiency and vegetation Of all forms
grew riotousfy. Oats yielded 100
bushels per acre and wheat and other
grains accordingly. The farmers con-
fidently anticipate 1914 will be a ban

BURKE CRITICIZED

Ex-Governor Burke is the subject of
severe press criticism, as the result Of
what is claimed to be lax methods in
the conduct of his Office. The story
first appeared in the Chicago Tribune
and is being given very general circu-
lation. It will not be taken very SER
iously in this state as it is known the
ex-governor while rather a poor bust
ness man is honest and incapable of
anything worse than carelessness.

A NEW USE FOR PATENTS.

The Scientific American expresses
satisfaction with the new use to which
the patent law is being put in the fol-
lowing manner:
When the distinguished Dr. Ehrl1ch'
the discoverer of salvarsan, better
known as 1905" was asked by Ger
man medical association why he had
patented his remedy, he replied that
he wished to control its manufacture
not in order to make money, but in
order to protect the public by guaran'
teeing its quality. Thus he showed
that professional man may use a pat
ent for a purpose which probably new
er entered the heads of those who
framed the patent laws of civilized
countries.
The medical profession, as Mr.. Bur
ton Hendricks points out In his article.
1.-THE New Medical Ethics" published
in a recent number of McClure's Maya
zine, is rapidly abandoning the foolish
principle Of not patenting its discover
les, for the very reason given by Prof.
Enrich. It is better to run the risk
of being accused of commercialism
than of permitting dishonest manufac.
turers to make a remedy as they see
fit. The physician himself cannot
guarantee these various products.
Hence the need of some method which
will insure the public against fraud.
and hence the value of patents.
This opens up the question why tho
patent laws should not be extended
to cover discoveries in applied science
which cannot now be legally protect
ed. Burnank gives the world new
fruit, a fruit more nutritious, more re-
productive, more palatable than any
that mankind has known before. It
costs him a fortune to experiment be-
fore he finally develops it to market.
able perfection. No patent laws pro-
tect him from the appropriation Of his
discovery So, too, the application Of
Mendelian principles to plant and ami.
NAL breeding where they involve what
may be regarded as the equivalent Of
invention, should certainly be accord
ed some protection. Why was not tho
discovery of Hellrigel that the, bacteria
nodu1es on the roots Of reeumfnous
plants reduced the nitrogen Of the at
mosphere in the form Of an absorbab1e
heterogeneous fertilizer patentable? It's
later improvement has enriched the
world by millions. And SO we could
enumerate a hundred practical scientf-
fic discoveries which have enriched the
world, but which are now left to the
tender mercies' of quacks and frauds.

The Times-Record is still waiting for
denial from Col. Bloom. If there is
a mistake it would be a pleasure to cor
rect any wrong impression but in the
absence Of denial, Bloom must stand
convicted of an attempt to fitch cou-
pie of thousand from the state. What

NEWSPAPERS PROSPEROUS.

In looking over the state exchanges
In this state and comparing them with
those coming from other state, one
cannot help but be impressed with the
appearance Of prosperity. True some
arc not so good but the average Is
splendid and the four hundred papers

of which go back east" carry mes

glowing terms of the great state Of

fied on.
u is always easy to accuse the local
papers Of having been bought when
they take an opposite stand on the
great questions but in every instance
in this state when great national and
state questions come up, regardless of
the consequence. the papers almost
without exception are found lined up
ON the side that is for the good of the
masses. Politically they differ but on
the great moral questions, they agree
perfectly almost as one man and today
were the great liquor question to be
a public issue in the state there are
hardly dozen papers that would favor
the liquor interests.
At the present time the question of
buying stock in terminal elevators by
farmers is being agitated. 1t may be
and We think is a good plan for the
farmers to thus protect themselves but
It will be noticed that the best and
most reliable papers are going rather
slow in urging their readers In the
matter. preferring rather to take plen-
ty Of time to Investigate all Of the is
sues connected with it and the facts
at the bottom and finally when the in
vestigations have been made it will
be found that the newspapers Of North
Dakota will be almost unit for or
against this as in all other great ques-
lions.
1t IS good to be newspaper man un-
der such conditions and 1t is still
better thing to know that as a reader
you are being served by such a conser-
vative organization of men. True
we are impatient for action
but It should be remembered that
when a self-respecting newspaper
takes a stand on any question it is
embarrassing to turn back and usually
haste il made slowly until absolute
right Of the position is known and ana
iized; for after all what your news
paper says is in black and white and
cannot be denied or eluded, therefore
nave patience with the newspaper
that hesitates to take part in a quar-
rel big or little. And do not loose
sight Of the fact that this state has the
best printed and edited lot of news
papers in the known world which are
striving to serve their readers and
mo one else.

To injure me, those Roman Catholic priests

meat and bread from boys and girls, men
and women who had no more to do with what
old Liguori wrote than / did
IF Liquors. writings are bad, why did the
pope make him "Saint?"
If his writings are obscene lewd and las
civious why did the Romanist church adopt
them?
If those teachings are SO filthy, why are the
Benziger Brothers of New York City not
prosecuted for sending them through the
mails?
If Liquors. doctrines are calculated to
destroy virtue, why are they taught to young
bachelor priests before those priests are
turned loose among the women?
Why should any church publish and teach
doctrines which are SO lewd, lascivious and
obscene that they cannot be included in an
indictment and spread upon the records of
the court?
On the contrary, if Liquors. doctrines are

The Methodists would not arrest me for
quoting from John Wesley. Nor the Presby-

Repeal the New Tax Law!

WHEN the Legislature meets again, it
:" should at once repeal that deceitful new
tax law which the Chambers of Commerce,
the Wall Street corporations, and the city
politicians slipped on to the Code.
a. The people Of Georgia were never
consulted about it.
Why not9
(2) It came sneaking out of the Atlanta
Chamber of Commerce.
Wig so?
(3) It reaches every foot of land in Geor-
gia, and does not reach single share of Wall
Street stock, not single corporation bond,
not o single dollars worth of corporation
property.
Wig this deadly discrimination against the
faymcr, tie te9eant, the city Aome-oa and
Ike merch0nt echOse assets are Visi6ze to the
assessors?
(4) That new law puts a premium on
corporation dishonesty and tax-dodging.
The very capitalists who enjoy the power
full privilege of taxing the people on freight
rates, electric power prices, telegraph rates,
Express company rates, Insurance rates, &C.,
are the very men that the Tax Assessors can
not reach.
Wig this exemption IN fovor Of the RICH
est?
(5.) The new law violates the spirit of
the Constitution, and the great principles Of
justice and equity.
It makes one lar for Incorporated qocazth
and another for the mprjV1eged indioiduaz
It was meant to increase the burdens of the
land, while exempting from fair valuation
and taxation the property of the millionares
who own stocks and bonds, railroads and
power companies.
(G.) That law was Matched in mystery and
darkness. Tt was sprung upon the Legisla-
ture unfairly. 1t was passed by tricks and
false pretenses.

Broadening of Our People.

The people residing in the city of
Lambertville are broadening out
in their thoughts. The editor of
the Lambertville Record knows
this to be a fact, having come in
contact with many who are under
going the process.
We have been telling them things
the past year that have set them
thinking. Not because of the
brilliancy nor the intelligence dis
played in what we have said, but
because we had the audacity to say
it.
Two weeks ago we had an anti
liquor editorial that was really the
strongest opposition to the LIQUOR
business ever printed in a Hunter
don County editorial colum, not
even debarring the Prohibition
papers that existed at Pennington
and at Clinton some years ago.
Many people have thanked us
for writing it. Not all of them
agreed with our views. Some said
it did not express their views. at
all, but they liked the audacitv that
permitted an editor to say what he
really believed to be for, the benefit
of the community. Not one has
protested against it's publication.
AS literature goes. it was lust a
commonplace piece of writing. but

A Real Live Community.

Judging from all accounts of last

Community was about the only real
live place on the map.
Up in Pennington and Clinton
where they are supposed to know
better, they relapsed into poetry,
and nobody made move toward
civilization for about three days.
Down in Pennington, where they
are not supposed to know any better,
they remained indoors for four
days and then ventured to peek
out around the corner of the win
dow shades.
Lambertville and its vicinity got
as much of the storm as any other
section of the country, but it was
the first to be on the move. Even
the Belvidere Delaware Railroad
gave us ten passenger trains during
the day, and would have given us
pretty near regular schedule if the
wires had not all been down.
While people in other cities and
towns were shivering by the fire
side and waiting for the warm suns
of Tuesday and Wednesday, the
citizens of Lambertville were busy
Monday morning cleaning their
sidewalks and in getting their sleds
and sleighs out for use.
When you come pretty near tell
ing somebody again that Lambert

this, and don't forget to tell them
that it is about the livest city in
the country. There wouldn't be
