GREAT FAIR PROMISED.

! With the prospects Of one OF the
greatest crops ever harvested in the
state rapidly approaching reality n
an optimistic feeling everywhere
throughout the northwest, the state
flair which opens in Fargo next week,
gives promise Of drawing the largest
crowds that ever attended a North
Dakota exposition.
| Special trains have been demanded
by many sections Of the state, and The
Forum publishes tonight the complete
J schedules of several of these specials
that will be- run over the Great North
ern. Reports received from railroad
men are to the effect that the interest
lie keen along all of these lines.
The Forum can assure it's readers
that they will not be disappointed
this year. The state fair will be well
worth seeing. The exhibit of live
and best ever brought together at m
point in North Dakota. The other
exhibits will be of equal worth and the
Entertainment and amusement fea-
lures will be Of a high order.
The fair grounds have been rear
ranged, to better advantage for the
crowd and for exhibitors. The trail"
has been moved from it's position in
former years. near the entrance gates,
to q point between the ~grandstand and
the merchants pavilion. This spreads
out the attractions and incidentally
does away with the big open space
that formerly existed between the
grandstand and merchants spavilion.
AS it was formerly. the merchants
pavilion vas practically isolated from
the rest Of the attractions.
This is only one Of the many inn
provements that have been made. The
management have been working for
months to make this the greatest fair
ever held in the state. 1t comes at a time
of the year when people are looking
for recreation, and no more enjoyable
outing could be planned than a week
spent at the North Dakota state fair
at Fargo.

CARE AND WORRY.

You have heard Of Care and Worry
dark visitors they say,
Who stalk about familiar as Hamlet's
ghost at play.
They come n tarry with you, unbid-
den and unasked.
And faunt their gaunt arms DER you
add weight to every task.
They watch the rays of sunshine, and
guard you open door,
Lest Light and Hope may enter and
sing the songs Of yore.
Close friends are Care and Worry,
they laugh and dance with glee,
And pile the faggots higher at each
white lock they see.
They glory in the shadows their black
robes fling about,
And while the cloud is DER you they
laugh and dance and shout.
They ever walk before you, for should
they fall behind,
Their forms would vanish from you
like mist before the wind.
But over on the other side wait Love
and Hope and Joy,
Mother and wife and sister, and little
Bob, your boy.
The robin sings in the hollow and
the skylark chants his lay,
And flowers blossom about you from
the morn till close Of day.
Fling back at Care and Worry their
black robes Of despair.
And know as the years pass swiftly
Gods hand has rested there.
Smooth u the great deep burrows
u wide on brow n cheek,
For trouble lies in the valley-you are
nearing the mountain peak.

BATTLESHIP INDIANA WAS
ONCE "QUEEN OF SEAS"

For the last two years the bat
tleships Indiana, Massachusetts
and Oregon have been stripped Of
their crews and more delicate ma
chinery and held in idleness at
navy yards. They are obsolete
fighting craft; at the best third
class. Yet. twenty years ago the
Indiana was hailed as Queen Of
the Seas" the most powerful war
ship afoat. Albert Franklin Mat
theWs wrote as follows about it in
The Century Magazine in July,
1894:
In the presence Of a distinguished
company, which included the presi-
dent Of the United States, occurred a
few days ago the launching Of the
Indiana, m Of three sister ba%ttleships
now building in this country, so com
plete in all their details, and so equip
ped with powers of almost inconceiv-
able destruction that they are &C
knowledged by naval experts here and
abroad to be superior to any engine
of war yet constructed. y
To build a battleship is of itself a
mighty achievement for any country,
but to build one better than any other
nation is building, and that in face of
the fact thai only six years ago we
had no plants capable of making
shafts, armor or gun forgings, is sure
~ a triumph.
1t is worth while to consider what a
battleship like the Indiana really is. In
the first place the cost approximates
$4,000, 600. Surely a craft like this is a
stupendous bit Of machinery. 1t Is a
delicate adjustment of curves of solid
steel to the c~hangeable resistance of
waves Of air n water. It is as much
superior to the ordinary vessel, and
as much more complicated as an opera
is to the ordinary hymn tune. 1t is
simply packed with machinery.
The steel for that Mr.. Nixon planned
is 100 feet long, 7h feet deep and
IS inches thick. At each end q
barbette rises to protect the monster

THE TRUTH ABOUT PANAMA.

Editorial in The New York World:
suggestion of value to himself in the
presidents Fourth Of July Speech. We
do not except Colonel Roosevelt, who
recently said:
AN administration that will con-
Clude such a treaty as this for the
payment of blackmail to Colombia has
forfeited all right to the respect of the
people Of the United States"
Whether the president, had the au-
thor Of this shocking sentiment in
mind we do not know, but hat por-
ton Of his remarks which Colonel
Roosevelt should consider very care
fully contained these words:
Honesty is a perfectly simple thing.
1t is hard for me to believe that when
a man is dishonest he does not know
it. 1t is hard for me to believe, Under
most circumstances, when a man has
to choose between two ways, that he
does not know which is the right way
and which is the wrong way.
Il would be ashamed of this flag if
it ever did anything outside OF Ameri-
ca that we would not permit it to do
inside Of America"
The World of Sunday showed in
great detail what the flag, obeying
the orders of President Roosevelt, did
at Panama in 1903. 1t violated our
treaty with Colombia. 1t protected a
purchased revolution participated in
by a handful of conspirators. 1t CO.
operated with the corrupt French
Panama canal lobby. 1t paid money
to the new republic Of Panama. 1t has
been used ever since by Colonel Roose-
welt to hide the truth of the scandal
and recently to f1aunt the baseless
charge Of blackmail in the face of
Colombia. It has been made to cover
our refusal to arbitrate a cas- 50
iniquitous on our part that we have
never dared to submit it to an i'm
partial tribunal.
Today's publication includes docu-
mentary proof that the bogus revolu-
ton at the isthmus was engineered in
his country; that President Roosevelt
placed himself and his great office at
the disposal of the lobbyists and trail
tors who planned it; that with his con-
sent they used his authority to intimi-
date Colombia; that the revolution
was so carefully arranged in all it's
details that the story of it was told
in The World more than four months
before it took place; that the whole
miserable business in New York,
Washington and Panama was worked
out by means of spies, cipher dis
patches and go-betweens, and that
finally, when everything was in readi-
ness, a show of force by United States
war vessels against Colombia was all
that was needed to complete the theft
Of a state from a weak but friendly
neighbor. Everything was done &C
cording to the program, secretly here
but openly and defiantly in Panama.
President Wilson believes that there
is something instructive in man that
gives him knowledge Of right and
wrong. He holds hat in most cases
men who choose the wrong do so with
elaboration. We think no one al
read the worlds amazing disclosures
lin the Panama affair without sharing
his opinion in this case. There were
right ways and wrong ways of acquir-
ing the isthmus, as plain in 1903 as
they are today. Mr.. Roosevelt chose
the wrong way, and his attempted

NEW VALUE OF LIFE.
Animals as Well as Plants Now Serve
the Human Need.

Dale H. Carnagey in Leslie's: The
value of life has fluctuated greatly in
the different periods of the worlds
history. To the Spartans life was
cheap. The highest duty was to be a
soldier; the greatest honor was to
give away life for the state. Napoleon
estimated the thousands of lives his
conquest for a universal empire would
cost, and he marched on sacrificing
them. Life had little value. Under
Henry VIII. death was the punishment
for stealing three shillings; there were
253 crimes punishable by death; a.
900 people were executed in his reign.
Formerly war, pestilence n famine
swept off humanity by the countless
millions. During the Thirty Years
war $4,000, 900 of Germany's poIula-
ton were killed. The Black Death de-
voured $4,000, 900 people in Europe
during the fourteenth century. Three
hundred and fifty famines have swept
over the earth since the beginning Of
history. Human life has been destroy
ed like bubbles. Today all this has
changed.
Smallpox and yellow fever, for ages
the two dreaded horrors Of mankind,
have lost their terror. The new dis
coveries in surgery have alleviated
untold suffering. Formerly operations
were performed while the subject
writhed and shrieked with pain. To-
day anaesthetics render the patient as
insensible as a mountain boulder. The
leading physicians Of the world a few
weeks ago cheered long and loudly DR..
Alexis Carrel, Of the Rockefeller insti-
tute, when he announced to them that
he had stopped the hearts OF ANIMALS
for two and one-half minutes and per-
formed operations on their valves.
Animals have played an important
part in the eradication Of human dis
ease. From the horse the antitoxin is
prepared that " thousands of chill
dren from death by d~iphtheria. From
the cow the vaccine preparation for
minimizing against smallpox is made.
In Baltimore recently a child's sight
was restored by using part Of a pigs
eye in the operation.

acy, but army ~oficers n congress-
men were found who seemed disposed
to give full credence to the rumor, for
the reason that enemies Of American

Singularly enough, the Fflipinos

cratic party, notwithstanding what it

American domination in their islands.
AS a result of the naming Of Fill

radical element in the islands expected
that Governor General Harrison would

American government would turn the
government of the Philippines over to
the F~ilipinos. When Mr.. Harrison did

They went into every island
with the statements that the United
did not intend to give them
their freedom and hat the only way
in which freedom could be obtained
was through revolt. Organizations
have been formed and independence
meetings have been held in every town
and island. At all of these meetings
the Ftlipinos adopted resolutions for
independence.
This Is reported as the history of
the agitation now threatening a crisis.
The Tribune's article will have the eff
feet of creating CONSERVATION among
Americans who have relatives or
friends in the Philippine islands, and
they will await with eagerness re-
ports from Governor Harrison and
others which the conspiracy story will

high official circles in that city of in

in the Philippines for an insurrection
against American authority. At an
early date. simultaneously throughout
the islands, Americans are to be at

ana his followers at Detroit in the
early days of white settlement in he

The plan is said to involve these
principal features: The landing of
arms, imported principally from ia

the american army garrisons. The
cutting Of the cable on the eve of the

Americans in Manila at the hour of the

One WAY to Get Notss.

The Popular Magazine: When Tom
Ship was running for congress in In
dianapolis, he received a visit one day
from a colored man. ),
"Mr. Shipp." said the visitor, you've
got a bunch Of negro voters in your
district, and they probably wan some
money"
Yes" agreed Ship weakly,
Nov, Mr.. Shipp," pursued the self
elected adviser, don't you go laying
those fellows individually. That's not
the way to handle them. The right
way is to find an Influential negro, the
most solid citizen among them, and
give him the money and let him dis
tribute it as he sees fit for the deliv-
cry of he votes"
Being opposed to the use Of money
In elections, and not having any mon
ey anyway, Ship welcomed this ad-
vice with a long and well developed
silence.

in an extremely confidential tone, use

niggers."
