No candidates for chairman Of the
republican state central committee,
"a position now held by Fred Brew
lster, have bObJed up.
The procedure of party 0rgaliza-
ton under primary law is wrong in
theory and practice. Nominees on
the state ticket who are vitality in
terested in the campaign have prac.
tically no voice in the selection Of
the men to run the campaign. In
other words the law forces a body
Of men up the nominees who may
or may not be friendly to them.
Can Force Platform.
But what is more vicious, these
men are empowered to draw up the
platform of party principles. In
other words the committee has the
power under the law to force any
platform upon the candidates it may
see fit. The candidates who really
are running for office and must car
ry out these pledges need not be
consulted under the law. OF course
the candidates as a rule are consult
ed, but if the party organization hap.
pened to be u1frieldly, matters
could be complicated easily.
System is Wrong.
The whole system is wrong. The
candidates who have been endorsed
at the polls should select the state
central committee and this commit
tee in consultation with the nominees
should arrive at the party principles.

An UNIQUE ! :

Berlin, July 6,-Herr Seithferth,
mayor of the little Saxe-Weimar city
of Weida, has made a donation to
the city which has set mathemati-
clans to figuring compound interest
problems of an unusual sort. The
donation consists of $50, AID it is to
be invested and the interest com.
pounded regularly for $40 years, or
until 1884. II May of that year 20
per cent of the accumulat d interest
is to be at the untrammeled dispos-
al of the municipality. The remain.
ing 80 per cent is to be similarly
compounded for a further 100 years,
when the total shall vest as an alb.
solute gift in the city. Estimates
Of the sum that will be available in
1884 AIRY from $1,250,OOO to $15,.
100000, always assuming that finaa.
cial conditions do not vary greatly
from what they are today.

.
One of the most striking figures in
public life passed away in the death
of Joseph Chamberlain. His break
with Gladstone on the home rule issue
probably robbed him of a more illus
trious place in history.
He filled positions Of trust during
trying hours, and although his fight
for tariff reforms was not we'll receiy.
ed by his c%ountrymen, he performed a
great service and his loss will be felt
keenlt.
Americans probably took more than
q passing interest in Joseph Chamber
lain. In 1888, he visited United States
and married Miss Mary Endicott,
daughter of the late William Crown
inshield Endicott, secretary of war in
Clevelhnd's first administration.

MORE FARMERS, CLUBS

Langdon, N. d., July 6.-The local
farmers clubs have organized into q
county organization with C. L. Smith
of Mona as president and Arthur
Foster of Clyde as. secretary. Each
club will furnish a vice president for
the larger organization.
The clubs have organized for a
more general discussion Of improved
farming methods, to promote any
thing that will be beneficial to the
farmers of Cavalier county, to i'm
prove social conditions in rural dist
riots and to bring the farmers into
closer touch for business and social
purposes. 1t is planned to hold a
monster picnic at the state expert
ment farm located hear Langdon.
The date has been fixed for July 20.
There is a great deal Of interest
shown in the Organization and the
farmers are convinced that many
benefits will result.

IS GENERAL.

DlsCoNTENT IS GENERAL.
Even the friends of the statewide
primary law are abusing 1t these days.
1t is to be expected that defeated can.
didates and their followers should feel
some pique at the workings of the
law, but the discomfort Is not con.
fined to this class of mourners.
The opinion that the law needs a
radical revision Is general. Even the
socalled progressive Republicans
are finding out that the primary is
not the political panacea they antici-
pated.
When the tax payer realizes the
cost entailed In operating a primary
law without any apppreciable gain
over the old system, he may speak
through the legislature in no uncer.
tain terms.
The progressive Republicans in
North Dakota are hardly in shape to
make q very vigorous defense of the
present primary law, for during the
last campaign they violated its spirit
by holding a moot convention at Dew
Ills Lake, eliminating candidates and
by q winnowfng process arrived at a
ticket, slate or what you please. And
all this under the primary law, the
creature Of these very men. Mirable
dictu.
ls not this action prima facie evi.
dence that even the creators Of the
primary law in its present form are
just . little bit ashamed Of their of.
spring?

tension owing to uneasy political
situation. but financial affairs ge1er-
ally On the Continent are settling
down, and the calmness with which
the assassination at sarajevo was
received shows that no serious
complications are yet in prospect.
The shock Of the Claflin failure has
been safely passed; although It Is
somewhat premature to anticipate
that the taking care Of over $780,.
OOO, 900 of liabilities can be effected
Show Poor Results.
y Current railroad earnings frequent
show very poor results, and addition
al receiverships are unpleasant re-
minders of the strain imposed upon
railroad finances by recent condi-
tions. These however belong to the
past. The future certainly begins to
look more cheerful. Good crops and
easy money are factors powerfully
helpful. The improvement in fina1-
cial affairs abroad should make for
eign buyers more favorably inclined
to American Investments. The Ad-
ministration has about accomplished
all that 1t wishes IN new legislation
affecting business, and our Industrial
leaders are now we'll Informed as to
coming readjustment. Uncertainty
should, therefore gradually disap.
pear. Commodities have been
steadily declining and ere long
should result in a lesse1ed cost of
living. No one can pretend that
business is satisfactory. On the
contrary it is decidedly slow; but the
reasons given above warrant the
hope that we are about turning the
corner.

Not a Cure-All.

Marv farmers have been led through

to nlant alfalfa when they should
never have attempted it,. according 10
specialists of the Agricultural Depart
ment. These specialists feel tnat
there has been an unnecessary amount
of talk about alfalfa and too little ac-
tual attempt to demonstrate the llmi-
tations that exist with reference to
to growing that crop. AS result the
denartment, while it is helping farm
ers to cultivate alfalfa and other le-
guminous plants by preparing bacterlai
cultures. is also cautioning lis Demon
stration agents to teach the farmer TO
grow alfalfa where it is desirable to
have it taught and where there Is
pronjse of success. These demonstfa-
tion agents are particularly Wafnea
not to encourage Individual farmers 10

other conditions and the soil OF the spe-
rial farm fully warrant the expert
ment which involves an lnvestmen1
for seed and cultivation, and II tne
crop is not successful means a waste
Of the land over a growing season.
The question Of whether alfalfa VIII
grow is not a simple problem, but IN
wolves frequently complicated group
of problems which have to he consider
ed from several different angles and
by several different groups OF specla!i,,
lists. Mere examination OF the SOD
will not show what is going to happen
with alfalfa. The only way TO discover
whether or not it will grow is to try 1T
iYexpensively in am experimental plot,
get certain general facts in mind, ana
then extend the experiment to promis-
ing local farms with the help OF the
farmer himself.
Only recently the department had re.
quests for 50,000 to $4,000 POUNDS OF
alfalfa seed for distribution to some
fifty or sixty Thousand farmers. II
the Department had acceded to this re-
Quest, It very easily might nave en-
couraged the farmers in that region tc
spend additional money for seed WheI
thew should not have undertaken the
culture of alfalfa at all. The mere
furnishing of seed is only the first step
because its successful cultivation call!
for special methods of soil preparation
incubation, and many other matter
not commonly understood by those VIII
have had no experience with this for
