at present is the snnreasoning abuse
of American railroads. which, in spite

In addition to the unfavorable de-
syclOpments in railroad circles, some
Of the industrials have also made
rather unsatisfactory reports. Two Of
these, the American Wooden and
American Sugar companies, were
chiefly affected by tariff uncertainty.
Now that uncertainty is past. 1t Is
worthy of note that the managers OF

selves to the new conditions and are
taking more sanguine views of the

HQnnQ:s BACKING

The announcement that Governor L. B. Hanna
would undoubtedly be a candidate for reelection.
made some time ago, has brought comments from
almost every paper in the state. and 1t is the prac.
tically unanimous opiaion of North Dakota editors
that the governor has given the state a business
administration, and that he is deserving of another
term, if he wants it. The exceptions merely prove
the rule, and the few who oppose a second term
for the governor do SO for. purely political reasons.
As a matter OF fact. the people of North Dakota
are back of Governor Hanna, and this is the only
backing he has. A Fargoan said 10 The Forum yes
terday that he hoped the friends of the governor
would not become overconident. "You know the
governor has no political organization back of
him" was his statement.
The Forum believes this is one of the strongest
reasons for predicting Governor Hanna's success ar
the coming primaries and at the later election. The
people of North Dakota are tired of being run by
a gang. They smashed the old stalwart gang TO
smithereens, and they have no time for any politi-
cal gang. .-
1t is the sincere opinion Of The Forum that any
man who comes before the people of North Dakota
With the avowed backing of a political organization
or faction. enters, the race with a heavy handicap.
The people Of the state adopted the primary law so
they could select, their own Candidates, and they
will resent any intimation of dictation on the part
Of any set of men, no matter who they are.
Under the primary system it is possible to be az
solutely Independent of any faction. That is what
Governor hanna is. 1t is because-h is independent
and not tied to any faction, and because he has
Proved his ability to give the state an efficient adj
ministration that The Forum will be glad to give
him its support if he decides to make the race agG:n.

ELKS' $ MEMORIAL SERVICES NEXT
 SUNDAY

Sacred the country over among the lodges of Elks' as the day on which deceased members Of the order are memoriallzed. the first Sunday in December is always httlngly observed by the lodges throughout the United States and its possessions. and this year the occasion will be even more elaborate in most cities than hereto fore.
 There are between twenty and thirty Elks in Cordova, most of whom be- long to tho lodges at Juneau and skag- way, where the day will be observed by programs suited to the occasion. It has been suggested that it would be appropriate to invite Rev. Me- Bride to deliver a sermon to the local Elks on that occasion. and that some of the members might assist in the services. To J3lks this Sunday in December Is the apex of their year. It brings to all the recollection of the day when all things are leveled and the common human heritage Of a mound Of earth is all that is left 70 Dreserve tha mortal story
 On that day Elks reflect on the mystery of life and death, the com ing and the going-the creation and tho end. Various are the creeds of the Elks, but it is not their mission to reconcile these beliefs It is the mission, however, of the great and growing organization to extoll the virtures of the dead and to preach the spiritual optimism that Is az least the seer of belief in ultimate union.
 It is the essance of Elkdom never to forget an Elk living or dead. On this memoral day the big heart of Elkdom testines publicly to that mem ory. 50 far as the dead are concerned and exalts It's principles of humanity, sympathy. aid and comfort.
