The Times-Record representative at
the meeting of the State Editorial AS
ISOLATION in Bismarck last week wishes
to acknowledge his appreciation for
the splendid reception given the visi'
ting boys of the press and business
men of the Capital City. Host Edward
Patterson, of the Hotel Mckenzie,
where the boys were headQuartered,
outdid himself, members of the Com
mercial club were on hand whenever
needed, and nothing was left undone
to make the good time complete.
The program was excellent, and
great credit is due President P. R.
Trubshaw, of this city, and Secretary
Holbein, for their efforts in making the
meetings interesting. The presidents
address on the opening day was thor
oughly prepared, showed thought and
careful preparation, and under. his
guidance the program went off with
out hitch. Governor Hanna's ad-
dress on the opening day was filled
with pithy suggestions to the visitors
in helping the growth of the state
while at the banquet on Friday even
ing, number of excellent short talks
were made by members of the associa-
ton, and Bismarck men.
The last two meetings of the asso-
citation have set high marks in the en-
tertainment line, and the local editors
have already begun to make their
plans for doings in Valley City next
summer, which will keep up the high
standard already set.

LAW VIOLATION.

There are many and various ways Of
violating the law, all leading toward
a general disregard Of all laws. One
that might be mentioned in passing is
the meeting Of political parties for the
purpose Of slate making. 1t Is only q
few years since we were told that q
primary law would overcome this par.
ticular evil and would permit any man
who aspired to Office to make his an
nouncement in compliance with the
law and would then furnish him an
equal chance with others. This seems
not to be true and the peculiar fea-
ture Of the whole farce is that the very
men who most strenuously urged the
primary law, are the first and most
fragrant violators, and amongst 9th
ers the name Of Attorney General Mil
Ter might be mentioned. The law
seems to be failure and under the
present arrangements, it IS less de-
sirable than the old convention sys-
tenn, in as much as it gives an op-
portunity for even more political un-
fairness and downright cheating. By
all means give us law that will pre-
vent slate making or give us back the
old convention methods of choosing
candidates.

advice may be had along the agricul-
tural line from many sources. Just
how to make the home work light will
require only very little time and
money.
If the farm home were provided
with hot and cold running water
(Which could be easily provided by
pressure tank with boiler attached
to the kitchen range), a convenient
place to do the laundrying; a prop.
erly arranged kitchen with, If ex-
pense will not permit, few convent
ences which will save many step;
a vegetable garden close to the house
with vegetables which the growing
child needs for food value, and which
often prevents actual sickness and
very commonly slow form of starv-
alton; with trees and shrubs for shell
ter and fruit; and bins in the house
for storing vegetables and fruit;
these improvements will cut the home
work in half.
Now, then, for the result. A neatly
gowned, well-posed woman in the
home, a sweet-faced mother, who will
consult with husband over the prob
lens on the farm and will train the
boy and girl to love the farm as a
home, and fun loving, happy COM
panion, who will attend farm insti-
tutes and social gatherings with hus-
band and partner.
Can you keep your boy or girl on a
farm, when they see the drudgery
mother is compelled to undergo? This
lightened of the burden on Mothers
shoulders will help to solve that tre-
mendous problem of keeping the boy
and girl on the farm. Mother best
knows how to help the lad over his
lessons, and if he can come to her
and she has time to answer questions
relating to the animal and flower life,
tell him the story Of the prairies or of
the myriad life about him, if she has
time to fill her home with congenial
companions and provide cheerful
sports and recreation, the home on
the farm will be an ideal spot and
the boy and girl will remain.
Choose We this day, for there never
was Tomorrow, Farmer, nor will
there ever be.

DANGER FROM FIRE AND GAS.

The large number OF recent acct
dents from fire and gas ought to serve
as a warning to others to be careful in
preparing the furnace or stove for the
night. Coal gas is very dangerous and
more attention should be given to the
matter of preventing accidents.

BLOOMING CURIOUS.

The following letter was received at
the Times Record office nearly two
months since, not being dated it is diff.
ficult to fix the exact date. Perhaps
the Times Record was mistaken, we
don't think so, but maybe it was mis-
take and the Times-Record is ready to
retract and explain at any time when
Bloom is out with denial that denies,
provided however we fail to furnish
the absolute proof that Bloom did at.
tempt to short change the state ST..
592.70. Below is the undated letter
followed by a complete story, which If
not true in any particular as the Col
onel intimates the Times Record will
be pleased to explain as soon as
Bloom will furnish the facts:
Editor Times-Record, Valley City, N.
Oak.
Dear Sir:-In the Bismarck Tribune
which received today notice what
purports to be a clipping from your
newspaper with reference to an at
tempt which I have made to "steal
from the state" I have not yet seen
the article in the Tribune upon which
you base your outburst of bile. I am
trying to get copy Of the Tribune,
and trust you will have a little pa
thence, assuring you that as soon as I
can get correct lineup on what am
charged with I will enter a plea in &C.
cordance with the FACTS, and I know
you will be just as anxious to publish
what I have to say as you have been
to give what the Tribune has to say.
This is the explanation I have to
make as to why I have neither admit
ted or denied what the Tribune may
| have said.
would not have you think that
believe you want to be fair, or that
anything / may say or do would re.
strain you in the slightest degree from
continuing your policy of villainous
misrepresentation, but it is possible
may be misjudging you. 1t is for that
reason I have taken the trouble tc
make this explanation.
Very truly yours,
| J. H. BLOOM.
Bismarck Tribune: On August q
the Journal Publishing company, BY
J. H. Bloom, its manager, presented
to the state bill for printing, binding
; etc., Of House Journals, in the sum O
$10,92S.49. The claim was duly itemiz
, ed, each detail of the work being men
| toned and priced and carried out t,
the total named, so that there can b.
no possible doubt but that the attemp
to collect this amount was deliberat,
and in no manner the result of care
, less calculation or clerical error. Tn
charge was deemed exorbitan. an,
was not allowed. Later, printing e1
r perts were consulted, the claims wer

that, on November 10, another bill wa
presented for the same work-thi
: time through subordinate. whose e.

was approved. So that the whole trar
