branches, but 1t is not very tall. In the spring and summer 1t has

small pink buds turn into little white berries, which completely cover thu

There a once a little girl named Peggy who lived with her grand.
mother and granddaddy. They were dear, quaint old people. They lived
in a big rambling old fashioned white house, and back Of the house was a

there were a number of snowbery bushes that had been planted there for
years and years. 5 IL r-r~1. g., <~.Aa <,,~

WARM RACE PROMISED,

The formal announcement Of the
candidacy OF W. c. G~ilbreath, commits
sioner Of agriculture, for denomination.
has increased the political gossip in
North Dakota. The indications are
that there will be more than the usual
interest shown in the office this year
because of the prominence attached in
recent to that department.
Berndt Anderson OF Churchs Ferry,
a farmer and q member Of the lesis-
~lature, will seek the place. He has
quite a wide following in the northern
part Of the state and is fairly well
known over other sections as a result
OF his legislative service. Two years
ago he was suggested as a candidate
by the insurgent wing Of the repub-
lican party.
Another candidate who. will. in all
probability. 0 O make his announce
ment is Hutchinson Of Benson county.
who ran for the place two years ago
and was defeated. He is also an in
surgent republican.
4hnL NAIL hilSn Oh "aSlDurn may
become a republican candidate. and
that his formal announcement may be
made within a few days, is also ru-
mored. Mr.. Klein has lived in Mclean
county for 10 years, and has an extern
sive acquaintance all over the Missouri
slope section.
The democrats have suggested w. E.
Byerly Of Velva. He is a practical
farmer and real estate man, and the
democratic holdover member OF the
North Dakota game board. He would
run strong for the place If the demo-
cratic ticket has a chance of being
elected.
The race should be an interesting
one and it is expected that with five
candidates in the field at the primaries
there will be- as many votes cast fer
the office of commissioner of agricul-
ture as for governor.

WOMEN AT POLLS.

The spectacle Of women at the polls
isn't a novelty any longer. 1t can
scarcely be called an experiment. II
has become one of the facts Of Ameri-
can life in a great many communities
and the tendency is in the direction OF
votes for a greater number of women
in a greater number Of communities.
Nevertheless, the most interesting
sight in our American life at present
is the woman with the ballot in Chi
cago.
In a great many respects, Chicago is
the most interesting city in America.
1t is tho product Of industries which
are far more typical than those which
Brought about the growth Of the one
larger American city, New York. Chi
cago may be said to be the direct
produce of corn and wheat, whereas
New York is the monster offspring of
negotiable paper and a tiGurative rou-
lette wheel.
Where New York has become fam
Gus for its women of wealth and fash
ion, Chicago has become famous for
womne of intellect. Between Jane Ad-
dams, who has developed a great HUI
manltar1an idea. and Ella Flagg
Young, who placed the stamp of her
high integrity so deeply upon the edu
cational system of the city that
scheming officials were powerIess "a
affect her. there is an army Of Chicago
women whose business In life Ia to
help rather than to hinder.
Now these women are to have a
hand in the shaping Of the civic NOR
atty Of a city which has developed,
quite in proportion to its immense size,
those malignant forces which snring
from ware politics. If such names as
"Hinky Dink' and "Bathhouse .John"
are to endure in the public life of Chi
cago, it will be for the first time with
the women's consent.
Rural communities and smaller Cit
les have afforded examples Of what the
woman is in politics. in a more or less
limited way, says The st. Louis Times.
And in these places the result cannot
be sald to have been at all disturbing
II women want to vote it would seem
the most reasonable thing in the world
to permit them to do so. Those who
DO not care to vote will find plenty OF
company among men who almost hab-
1tually remain away from the polls.
1t is quite obvious that women can
not bring about any worse conditions
in politics, or lower standards in gov
eminent. than those which now exist
If it be urged that the home will suf-
Ter. II women become interested in
politics. the answer is that the home
must have deteriorated a great dea1
already. or it could not have turned
out the class Of men who either aid lr
corrupting government, or who ammo,
devise a method of preventing thai
condition.

Organization in this city is the great
exemplar, but which prevailed in ar
equally sordid IL less conspicuous way
In Buffalo. In that city Kennedy be-
| gan in politics as a saloonkeeper on
the lake front, with the ~Iongshoremen
as his chief body of supporters. It was
from that position as a local party
leader that he became a power in dem .
ocratic politics in the second city of
the state and in Erie county. In due
time it made him the candidate for a
leading state Office, for which he had
no qualifications, because OF his con-
trol Of votes when his party gained
ascendancy at Albany.
When he appeared before the grand
jury in his county two weeks ago he
found himself subjected to an inouisi-
ton calculated to test his knowledge
of the duties and details Of his own
office and the financial interests Of the
state. Some glimpses Of that expert
ence are disclosed which reveal the
ground Of his terror of being put
through the ordeal of giving testimony
about payments a1d accounts relating
to the highway and canal contracts.
His experience was no calculated to
make him sensitive about the terms of
the contracts or the manner of secur-
ing and executing them. He may have
known about political contributions
and corrupt bargains, but there is no
sufficient reason for suspecting that he
profted personally by them.
His suicide was not a confession Of
guilt or of sympathy with the guilty.
1t was apparently the result Of sheer
~incapacity to meet the responsibilities
OF his Office and to stand an inquiry
into its administration and it's relation
to the public contracts. In times Of
mere routine services he was sufficient
Tor a figurehead to represent his party
and receive the reward of faithful and
useful service to it and not to the
He had the misfortune to be
with a trial to which he
was not equal and which he had not
the braVado to face.

We

Life: At the National Conference
on Race Betterment, held not long ago
in Battle Creek, some of the delegates
evidently forgot themselves. This
dreadful thing about American girls
was reported as being uttered by DR..
Carolyn Geisel of Rome, Ga:
"Women's schools are inefficient be-
cause they fail to prepare women
either for livelihood or motherhood.
Graduates come out Of women's
schools physical wrecks with a value
less food of useless information and a
penchant for fashions which leave
them as nearly nude as the law will
allow"
Until we read this reasonable state
ment Of Or. Geisel's we were laboring
under the impression that our modern
girls who, attend women's schools
were the soul of modesty and shrink
ing retirement; that they spent most
Of their time in disciplining their
minds and acquiring ~self-control; that
they denied themselves material
things, bent their energies to house
hold duties. and delighted in helping
their parents to live within their in

LATEST BY WIRELESS.

wireless messages between Berlin
n New York show conditions of de-
Velopment in autobiography which
may well rank as a new wonder in the
story Of a wonderful invention.
There was an experimental exchange
OF wireless kilograms between the
Sayv1lle and the Nauen stations last
July. There was even then the his
toric fact of Marconi's message from
italy to this country in November
1911, and, there have been exchanges
OK messages between Belgium and the
Congo, between Alaska and Siberia.

ly commercial communication to and
from midocean. Even so, the fact that
the Oberburgermeister of Berlin can
send greetings to the mayor of New
York directly through 1000 miles Of
space Is remarkably significant of the
eventual utilization of wireless as the
universal medium Of international
communication.
How soon may we now look for
wireless telephony across the Atlantic?
The successive advances inevitably
give the impression that the wireless
age" in the sense Of the world wide
use OF the invention for commercial
antercomnunication, is all but here.
Is h submarine cable doomed? Will
the collection n distribution Of the
worlds news soon be effected by wire
less, as has been predicted by compe-
tent authority? 1t is at least within the
bounds OF reason that New Workers
within their, present lifetime may call
UP Europe and order goods in Bir-
1ningham or Berlin or chat with their
friends on the Riviera
