Ii his book, the Conquest, Of the

calls attention to some little known
geographical facts:
Most Of US picture Havana as nearly
south Of New York, when In fact IL ia
about south Of Detroit. A study Of
a map OF the new world discloses the
disconcerting fact that all OF the west
coast of South America is east OF De
troit. and that most Of it is hundreds
Of miles east Of New York city The
truth of the matter Is that we should
call that continent "Southeast Amer

cry that considerable portion Of
South America lies north Of the south

we set sail from Colon for Santa Mar
ia, Colombia. we do not head south
or southeast, we point our Prov north
east This Is almost as puzEling as the
other fact to the effect that Colon. the
Caribbean port (the supposed east
port). is twenty odd miles west OF PAN
anna City, which is on the Pacific and
presumably west end Of the canal II
is positively dncanny to look out Of q
window OF the Tivon hotel, in Panama
City, and watch the sun rise sQuarely
out Of the Pacific oceanl OF course
an accurate map justifes the sun in
selecting the Pacific for rising rather
than setting purposes. but it never
seemed right or proper to me. Oceans
should stay where they belong, and
the Pacific has no business to twist
itself to the east Of Panama.

Crossing Rivers and Swampo Tourists

More than once, says John 81. Weeks
In his book Among the Primitive Ba-
kongo," / had In my San Salvador
Journey strong krooboy part OF
whose duty it was to carry me over
the many streams and swamps that
crossed the path. His name was re-
markable one. do not know how he
came by It. but the first time met
him l asked him bis name, and he re-
piled in krooboy English. "My name.
massa, be Napoleon Bonaparte."
Sometimes Napoleon would have me
on his shoulders In the middle OF q
river, and feeling the rush Of water
against his legs he would begin to
quake and say: 'sMassa. no dt for
carry you. go let you fall"
would reply, Napoleon. At for
give you one cupful of rice suppose you
no drop me-"
He would then take few more care
ful PAGES, and feeling the swirl Of wa.
ter more strongly about his legs and
the stones slipping beneath his feet he
would nervously call out In his curious
English: ''Massa. massa. no fltI ]
bound for let you fall"
Napoleon often received from me the
promise OF two or three cupfuls OF
rice to steady him before he landed
me high and dry upon the farther
bank. At times we were not SO fortu-
nate. Then both of US went down into
the water, and we congratulated our
selves when it was stream and not
nasty, muddy swamp.

Shampoo.

A mid-eighteenth century traveller.
who Is the first person known to have
made English Of the word shampoo :
wrote that ''shampooing is an opera
tion not known in Europe and Is pc
culiar to the Chinese, which had once
the curiosity to 60 through and for
which paid but a tride. However,
had / not seen several Chinese mer-
chants shampooed before me should
have been apprehensive Of danger,
even at the sight Of all the different
instruments" The original '.sham-
p0o.s as this travellers detailed ac-
count and other allusions for long after
his time show. was very much what
we call "massage" now. It was from
ymhia that the word really came. and II
eVresents the imperative OF a verb

Star photography is one Of the most

cases the exposure of the plate must
last for several hours. During all this

be moved so that the image of the star

Political predictions, more particular
ly from the inner circle of state politics
have already started termination despite
the cold weather. Local interest is per-
haps more generally conferred on the
the large healthy sprout that has already
adorned Hon. u. T.. Burdick's biennial
political ambition. The youthful states
attorney of Williams county, who has in
the past nursed congressional ambitions
and successfully filled the positions OF
speaker OF the house and lieutenant
governor. it would now appear is being
carefully groomed for the attorney gene
ralship when Andy Miller responds to
the call, well done good and faithful
servant" to put on a congressional toga,

The Devils Lake Daily journal is the
only democratic daily newspaper IN the
state. The Journal is not only demo-
cratic, but it is a good newspaper, being
the only daily newspaper in the state
carrying the United Press telegram re-
port, recognized as the best afternoon
service in the country and carried by
the leading newspapers of the larger
cities. The Journal should be IN the
hands Of every democrat in the state.
The publishers have recently installed
one of the largest and fastest perfecting
presses in the state and they are prepar.
ed to handle a state wide circulation.
The campaign this year is going to be
interesting and there is no one thing
which would do more to enhance demo
cratic success than a wide circulation of
the journal.

Now's the time. "to strike while the
irons hot" There should be no lack Of
slgners to petitions now being circulated
over the county asking that the board of
county commissioners take immediate
action in providing a county jail build
ing that will allow of the safe keeping Of
prisoners, at the same time not leopard
izing their health and lives. Such is the
case at present. The sheriff cannot be
held responsible for the safe keeping of
the county jail's inmates while on the
other hand the sanitary condition and
danger our dungeon prisoners face in
case of fire makes q continuance of their
confinement in the court house a crime.
1t is a contingency that will tolerate of
no delay. The county is financially we'll
able to handle the proposition of build
ing a county Jail such as will adequately
meet the present and future needs, and
1t is up to all our broad-minded tax pay
ers to see that the matter is present
ed to the board of county commissioners
IN proper shape right now while the
January meeting is still in session.

Commenting on what it terms the
missionary zeal Of Ormbsby McHarg,
the former North Dakotan, The New
York Sun says:
1t is highly interesting to discern
that at the gathering of the republican
national committee | n Washington the
Hon. Ormsby McHarg, the missionary
worker" among the southern negroes
for Theodore Roosevelt. will oppose the
proposal to reduce the southern repre-
sentation in the national convention.
Nor is it less diverting to learn that he
predicts with equal solemnity that
Colonel Roosevelt will be the republican
nominee IN 1916.
A ~commendable "mlssionary" spirit.
We're i: not far better to retain and
labor with the black man within the
party than to cast him into outer dark
ness and thereby rob the "~missionary'
OF his job? But. let's see, on what par
tlcular issue was it, anyway, that the
colonel bolted the Chicago convention?

II the older people will take the
trouble to remember that the winter of
1890 was a duplicate Of the present
winter so far, and that the following
year farmers harvested the largest crops
that were ever grown in the state, they
will have some pleasant things to think
about for the next three months. II
the weather keeps anywhere as nice as
it has for the past two months North

people that have seen the real old time

The year of 1913 appears to have been
one Of immense satisfaction to the editor
of the Milton Globe, who is reviewing
the retrospect Of the past twelve months
among the other good things views with
complacency an addition of 400 names
to the Globes subscription list. With
such an abnormal expansion in c%ircula,

WHY WE HAVE GOOD TIMES.

Financial depression is an emotion
rather than a fact. 1t is more OF a state
of mind than an actual condition
Times" whether good or bad, are
quite largely the result of the way We
feel about business. Because the money
condition is what controls it all and
that condition depends upon how this
or that source Of money feels about
letting it go out. The volume of money
is there and it is all a question OF the
current.
The best way to make good times and
keep them is to talk good times and the
surest way to produce hard times and
dam the money current Is to croak,
John M. Dickinson, the authority who is
writing a series Of daily articles for the
Dispatch, has the right idea and his
cheerful optimism should be infectious.
There is plenty of money and the door
is wide as ever. The masses of the
people refuse to be frightened at the
knowledge that the government has
taken over the management OF their
money in the banks. They did not
show alarm when that control was
practically in the hands OF a coterle
of New York bankers and there is no
lack Of confidence in the fairness and
purposes of the government as a sub
stitution.
The Northwest should see that the
example it has set tha nation be per
sisted in. "The Northwest is the great
bright spot of prosperity says every
commercial and financial bulletin. The
Northwest is strong, self reliant and
optimistic. 1t talks good times and
thinks in terms Of good times. Every
thing will be better than ever if this
section will continue i'll its present
frame Of mind and point the way for
the rest of the nation.-St. Paul Dispatch
