Extravaganza was one of the crimes
charged against the Republican party
by our Democratic friends when they
were out of power. They promised
tho people that if they were trusted
with the management they would
practice the closest economy and that
"pork, barrel" appropriation bills
would be a thing of the past. Just
now the country is startled by the
statement that the Democratic house
of representatives has sent to the
senate the "pork barrel' river and
harbor appropriation bill and that the
sum carried in the bill is $95,OO 900.
If the senate passes the bill it will
show that the Democrats are far more
extravagant in wasting money than
the Republican party ever dared to
be.-Walsh County Record.

1t is said that Grand Forks will
put on a good fair this year, but how
many people outside of Grand Forks
know this. We have taken occasion
to look over the leading papers Of
Grand Forks and yet we were unable
to find a line about the fair and out
side of Grand Forks we have failed
to see a word about it in the news
papers. If the fair management think
that they can promote a successful
fair without letting the people know
something about 1t through the news
papers they are mistaken. Of course
there will be people there and many
too, but with the proper advertising
there would be double the crowd. As
We write this article we are unable
ourselves to say when the date Of the
fair is. II . circus comes along ev'

God grant that we may never have
the class of sutfragettes in this coun-
try that they have to contend with
in England. Over there 1t seems to
be the aim and object of the leaders
of the movement to burn or destroy
in some manner that which is the
most valuable and which is most dear
to the people. Recently a band of
these women attempted to dynamite
the cottage in which Robert Burns
was born, and for what reasoni 1t
would not aid their cause to destroy
a building of this nature, but 1t
seems that they are bent on doing
something to attract as much atten.
ton as possible, and perhaps the
thought uppermost in their minds was
to destroy something near and dear
to the people, even if it would not
aid ! n the cause. It is just such acts
as this that has done much injury to
the cause Of woman suffrage.

FARMERS CLUB
AT SOUTHAM

Last Saturday the Farmers Of Hope
and Ontario townships organized a
farmers club. The meeting was held
in the thriving city of Southam on the
800, and there was a large attendance.
The following officers were elected
for the coming year: President, 7. W..
l.. kunkel, Vice President, P. G..
Durbin, Secretary, Julius Nelson,
Treasurer, w. A. Fulkerson. The
object Of this organization is for the
purpose Of exchanging ideas relative
to farming as well as social topics.
They will hold regular meetings the
second Saturday Of each month. This
is a move in the right direction and
every village in the county should
have one of these organizations, and
have for membership every farmer in
the locality. We shall hope to give
something of the doings Of this or.
ganization from time to time.

Judging from the small number of
theatrical troupes we see making the
various cities and towns these days,
the moving picture shows are taking
the place of the theatre to a consid-
cradle extent. Nearly every town OF
any size has its moving picture show
and they are being patronized by all
classes, and we believe that the or.
binary picture show gives more value
for the money than the travelling show
which is is too ofen composed of a lot
Of bum actors. The moving picture
business has been reduced to a science
and in these pictures you generally
see the best actors. ~

Official Paper Of Ramsey County.
Some months ago this paper recoiv

Some months ago this paper receiv-
ed a letter from a concern known as
the Mercantile Publicity Co., of
Dayton, Ohio, and in this letter was
an order for a large amount of ad-
vertising, and also a financial state
.ment OF the company showing large
assets. In this order for advertising
they never asked for or stated any
price they wished to pay, but a re.
quest to just send in the bill. As has
been our custom in-the past to inves.
tigate all. offers Of. foreign advertisers
we took the matter up and after an
investigation we became convincedy
that this was a deadhead concern and
neither the World or the Edmore
Herald-News Of this county carried a
line of this fake stuff, and therefore
have no unpaid bills to collect from
them. However, this was not the case
with most Of the newspapers who are
always grabbing for anything like
advertising to fill their columns. The
Journal of this city ran columns of
1t, likewise the sheet known as the
Inter-Ocean is still filing its columns
with this stuff headed "Sexual Knowl.
edge" "Non-Puncture Auto Tires.0
especial Hosiery Offer" and the like,
and practically every newspaper in
the county as well as a large number
over the state have been carrying
about two full columns of this rot,
for which they will never get one
red cent. The government has made
an investigation and a receiver has
been appointed for this concern, but
SO far as can be learned there are
no assets whatever to meet any of
the many obligations, a large number
OF which are for advertising bills sent
in from nearly every state in the
Union. From Georgia alone there has
been advertising bills for over $1,000
sent in. The aim of this newspaper
is to carry no fake advertising to
mislead it's readers, and when mat
ter Of this kind comes up we are
careful to make a rigid investigation
before we accept any contracts, but W
know there are newspapers who are
willing to see their readers "hum-
bugged' just So long as they think
there is a shance to get a few paltry
dollars.

Go to Church and Get Acquainted With
Your Clergyman; He's Not a Bad Sort

" CAN'T be a hypoc5ite," was the ready excuse Of one man when
asked why he didn't attend church. "I know that I am not
righteous and that I cannot practice what the church
breaches"
There is hope for this man. He is the kind the church wants.
If he is not righteous he Is not happy. Let him acquire the habit
of GOING TO CHURCH and he will get a broader, better and
happier view of life.
We cannot all be saints. But surely a man can forget the
temptations of the world for one hour or one day each week. At
least for the hour or so that he is in church he can really think
over the big things in life. Let him listen to the word Of God and
do his best. Of course there are some persons in every community
who will criticse as freely the man who GOES TO CHURCH as
the man who stays away.
NO MAN WHO GOES TO CHURCH CAN BE A HYPocRlTE
LONG. DEEP DOWN IN HIS HEART HE KNOWS THAT HE CAM
NOT SELL GOD A GOLD BRICK. IF ORIGINALLY HE GOES TO
CHURCH SOLELY TO MAKE A GOOD IMPRESSION WITH HIS
NEiGH7oRs-AND THIS IS TO BE
HE WILL FIND THAT HE IS GRADUALLY BEING LED TO THE
RIGHT SORT OF LIFE. IT IS EASY TO ACQUIRE THE GO TO
CHURCH HABIT. TRY IT ONE SUNDAY. WHEN ANOTHER SAB.

METHODS, DoNiT TALK ABoUT n ON THE ourslpE, BUT TELL
HIM. HE'LL MEET YOU HALFWAY. NONE REALIZES MORE

At the coming election there are six
constitutional amendments to be vot-
ed on, and as these are important
matters to come before the voters it
will be well for every citizn to study
these amendments up in order to vote
on them intelligently. Among the
most important of these are the mat
ter Of woman's suffrage and also the
amendment to make provision for our
Legislature to make some good road
laws and appropriations therefor.
