THE wheat crop in this country is of
peculiar interest because Of the fact
that both general business and the
financial markets have lately fallen
into a state Of depression, for which
they seem scarcely able to assign the
cause, but of which, in their recent
mood of pessImism, they have profess
ed themselves unable to see the end.

which the reasons popularity adduced
flor such a condition of things were so
confused. One hears that the trouble

not convincing, for the republican par

wears ~afterward, and business was
considerably worse even than it is to-
day.

The first parliament of the Australian
commonwealth was convened thirteen
years ago, May 8, 1901, the union Of
the six original Australian colonies.
New South Wales, Victoria, Queens
land, South Australia, Western Austria
liza, and Tasmania, having been pro-
sclaimed on the first day Of this year.
The Australian parlianent, which has
been called "the most progressive in
the world has inflated many cas-
ures of reform, at which older coun-
tries would stand against. The upper

consists of thirty-six members, six for

organizer, a s~trategist.
1t is possible to overlook much that
is said to belong to his record. 1t
Is conceivable that any man Of high
spirit and a belief in his country might
have done nearly all that he has done
in the way of laWlessness, If confront
ed by a Diaz and a form Of govern
ment which left the Mexican people
worse off with every year that passed.
1t Is thus that the policy Of watch
full waiting, which Is now frequently
mentioned with a sneer, is proving the
wisdom of those who famed it.
Another month of Villa ought to see
the Mexican problem temporarily set
tied, if the American forces are re-
quired to content themselves with
merely standing by, prepared to act
on behalf of Americans in Mexico, or
on behalf of humanity.
The zapatists are not a complicated
factor in the case. They are not Of
the stock which constitutes the masses
Of the Mexican people. They will nave

Indians were handled in the pioneer
day " the United States. That Villa
car ~subjugate these people with a
united Mexico back OF him seems
more than likely.
The supreme test Of Villa will come
when Mexico City falls. If he can con-
troll his army-and himself-when that
g takes place, the Mexican prob
lem will have been solved to the ex-
tent, at least, of placing the destiny Of
Mexico in the hands Of representative
Mexicans.
That is what the administration te
Washington has been insisting upon

Tragic events on an immense scale

the end is reached; but already it is
apparent that Americas neighbor re-

of a day that may be filled withEre-
construction and genuine growth.

A SIMPLE Way TO
REMOVE DANDRUFF
Prevent Falling Hair and End
itching Scalp.

There is one sure way that has never
failed to remove dandruff at once, and
that is to dissolve it, then you de-
s1roy it entirely. To do this, just
get about four ounces Of plain, COM
mon liquid rvo from any drug
store (this is all you will need) APP
ply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub
it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, Of your
handruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve, and entirely destroy, every
single sign and trace Of it. no mat
ter how much dandruff you may have.
You will find al itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly and
your hair will be fluffy, l~ustrous,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and
feel a hundred times better.
If you value your hair, you should
get rid of dandruff at once. for moth
ing destroys the hair SO quickly. 1t
not only ~starves the hair and makes
1t fall out, but 1t makes it stringy,
straggly, dull, dry, brittle and l~ifeless,
and everybody notices it.-Advt.

"THE GRAINGRAWERs."

The Forum does not often take is
sue with the morning contemporary.
This paper refuses to bore it's readers
by taking part in petty chickering's.
Recently, however The Courier
News in its editorial columns referred
in a sneering and contemptuous manner
to the excellent name that was select
ed for the Fargo-Moorhead team, and
The Forum believes it should not go
unnoticed.
According to The Courier-News
man, the name Graingrowers-"tastes
like a turnip," it reminds him of the
unpleasant ~occurance at the audi
tofium last winter and other things.
This iS a mighty cheap sneer to take
at the calling on which The Courier
News, The Forum and every other
enterprise in the city Of Fargo and the
state Of North Dakota is practically
dependent for support.
The name Graingrowers was select
ed from hundreds Of names submitted
to The Forum in a public contest.
Three of the most prominent men in
the two cities. F. H. Irish of the First
National bank; Seth w. Richardson
of the law firm of Barnett & Richard
son, a former player in the Northern
league; and w. E. Hunt, formerly one
of Fargo's best known citizens, now
manager of the Comstock hotel, Moor
head, made the selection after careful
consideration.
The representative citizens Of the
two cities, believed that the team
should have a name which would show
the characteristic Of this section or
the country n they succeeded admir-
ably when they decided upon the word
Graingrowers.
This name has been accepted
throughout the entire Northern league
as highly appropriate. Sport writer's
are notorious for their quick humor
and their sharp digs are characteristic
of the sporting pages, but not a single
sneering remark, not a solitary slul
has been cast at the Fargo-Moorhead
team because of this me-excep in
Fargo.
1t was formerly deemed clever and
smart to sheer at the calling of the
farmer. It may still be considered
funny in some parts Of the world, but
the northwest has learned that there
is no calling on earth which demands
greater industry, energy and brains
than is required of the tiller of the soil
and up in this section of Uncle Sans
domain there is no mar more honored
or more highly respected than the mar
who calls himself a-Graingrower.

THE TRUE IMPERIALISM.

Here. where the tide of conquest rolls
Against the distant golden shore,
The starved and stunted human souls
Are with us more and more.
Vain is your Science, vain your Art,
Your triumphs and your glories
vain,
To feed the hunger of their heart
And famine of their brain.
Your savage deserts bowling near,
Your wastes Of ignorance, vice,
and shame
Is there no room for victories here,
fiji No field for deeds Of fame?
Arise and conquer while We can
The foe that in your midst resides
And build within the mind OF Man
The Empire that abides.
William Watson.
