THIS WASTE SHOULD STOP

hundreds OF thousands OF dol
lars are lost each year, through
unwise investments, the purchase
of shoddy goods from irrcsponsi-
BILE pedlers and donations to char
tiles which are unworthy. The
average man has not the time or
the means to investigate ali Of
these propositions which are put
up to him and as a result a very
large amount Of money is abso-
lutely wasted in every commun-]
ity.
All over the country it is known
today that North Dakota has har-
vested excellent crops and that
her people will have money. AS a
result this state will be flooded
with all kinds of solicitors. The
get-rich-quick men will offer
stocks and wares, solicitors and
pedlers of all kinds will try to
work all districts of the state and
every kind of scheme will be tried
out, which will promise to ''get
the money for the solicitor.
There is better opportunity for
profitable investment in North
Dakota today than in almost any
other section on earth. This state
is growing, she needs many forms
of business enterprises and our
own state should be invested in
our own state.
In many communities, CONNER
cial organizations and Farmers
Clubs investigate propositions
which are presented to their
members and advise them as TO
the honesty of those who seek
their money. Almost any COM
munity has in it competent men
who can look into these different
solicitor propositions and report
upon them. Before you invest in
any kind of proposition pre-
sented by transient strangers Of
whom you know nothing, either
have his proposition investigated
by your commercial or Farmers
organization or by your bankes.
Thousands of dollas will be saved
to the community and state if our
people will know that their money
is being we'll spent and that none
OF it goes into the hands of the
grafters.

BURKE WILL RUN

Some of the most interesting
political gossip that has been
Sprung" in North Dakota in
months comes from Minot. Ac-
cording to this gossip John Burke
will surely be the Democratic
candidate for United States sena-
tor against Hanna, McCumber or
whoever wins the republican NOM
ination for that office. Also, &C
cording to this gossip, Halvor Il.
Halvorson will be the standard
bearer of the democratic party in
the race for governor.
The Minot Optic-Repoter says:
Col. j. Bloom, editor of The
Devils Lake Journal and unre-
movable postmaster at that city,
was in Minot today, modestly dis
claiming anything of the kind but
none the less interested in look
ing over the political situation in
the state in the interests Of the
Democratic party of whom he is
a wheel-horse.
Il. got leave of absence forl
five days from the postofficc de-
partment." said Colonel Bloom,
land am looking around a littla,
and ! cannot help hearing a lot Of
political talk
Colonel Bloom is something OIL
a political pussyfoot and is able
to find out many things that dol
not come to the ordinary political
observer.
Asked who would, in his opin-
ion, be the Democratic candidate
for governor, he replied:
Il am not giving this as inside
information, but l know that the
party is satisfied that the best
man to nominate for that posi-
ton is Halvor l.. Halvorson Of
Minot. He is clean man, a good
business man and has had a lot
of political advertising while
candidate for congress in the
past. If the talk over the state is
any criterion by which to judge,
ne will be able to get the nominal
ton without much trouble
Colonel Bloom is positive that
Governor Burke will be the Dem
ocratic candidate for senator. "He
can hardly refuse the request to
rum said the Colonel. ''He has
never yet turned down demand
from his party, and the party has
been pretty good to him i'm turn
and he realizes this
The genial Colonel is optimistic
about democratic success in the
state next year. He sees the scraps
of the Republicans tearing the
party asunder and the united and
unafraid democracy walking to
the polls as one man and casting
their vote for the men who will
sat the nominations without riv-
airy.
Despite the fact that Col. Bloom
Is a democrat and an officeholder
at that, he is a congenial gentle
man and able newspaper man. In
fact, his ability as an editor has
given him the position he occu-
pies among those at the top of
the editorial column. He is a sort
of newspaper freelance, but al
ways manages to stay moored to
the rocks of democracy sufficient
ly to get in sail at any time a ser
ious storm appears on the politi-
cal horiZon.-Fargo Forum.

WIRELESS
 TELEPHONY ACHIEVED HUMAN VOICE IS TRANSMITTED
 FROM ATLANTIC SEABOARD
 TO HONOLULU. < DISTANCE OF 4,60O MILES Remarkable Demonstration of Ameri- can Telegraph, & Telephone Com pany Engineers Regarded as Marvellous Triumph of Science.

Wireless telephony from the Atlan- tic seaboard to Eawaii--a distance Of 4,600 miles-is an accomplished fact. By the special wireless telephone de- velopments which have been made by the engineers of the American Tele- graph and Telephone Company and of the Western Electric Company speech was transmitted September 18th from Washington to 8 wireless station in Honolulu. If anything further was needed to show the wonderful capac' ity of these new discoveries by the engineers of the Bell System, this last triumph coming but few hours after Mir. Vail, president of the company. had talked by wireless from Washing ton to MT. Carty, it's chief engineer. located at Mare Island near San Fran cisco. Cal, is conclusive.
 That transatlantic wireless tele> phone communication is assured as soon as the disturbed condition in Europe will permit of tests from this country is obvious when it is remem- bered that all scientists agree on the fact that it is more difficult to send wireless telephone communications across land than across water. This wonderful wireless telephone message from Washington to Hawaii had to pass over the entire United StateS-a distance of 2,500 miles-before it en- oountered the more simple wireless conditions which exist over large bodies of water.
 For the purpose of this test the sending was done from the navy wire less station at Arlington, just outside of Washington, D. c. The message was received by a small wireless ap- paratus at the United States naval station. Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
 Wireless telephony has been the goal of the American Telephone & Telegraph Company ever since it suc- ceeded in establishing the transconti- mental communication by wire last January. Prior to sending the wire less telephone message to Hawaii. President. Theo, IN. Vail, of the Amer ican Telephone & Telegraph Com pany. seated at his desk at 15 Dey street. New York talked into Bell

Sought to Appease Her.

They were giving big dinner and the coachman had come in to help wait at the table. Several persons had suffered from his lack of experience, and in serving peas he approached a very deaf old lady and inquired:
 "Peas, muln?"
 No answer
 Peas, mum2' (louder).
 The old lady saw that someone was sreaking to her, and she lifted her ear-trumpet to the questioner. The coachman, seeing the large end of the trumpet directed toward him, thought rhusly:
 Tt must be a new way O takin 'em. but s'pose she like 'em that way''
 And down went the peas.

outlined abOve.
 U. N. Bethell, Senior Vice-Presi- dent of the A. T. & T. Company, who also talked over the wireless tele- phone and was present when Mir Vail talked, made the following statement: "This romantic incident-this talking by wireless across the continent ssasasos another epoch in the develop. mont of the art of transmitting intel. hgence by electric telephone mes sages.' The talking was very satis- factory, words and sentences uttered from New York were repeated back from San Francisco with absolute ac- curacy and even my voice was recog- nized immediately when l spoke into the transmitter. Another wonderful achievement is to be credited to the Bell organization, and for the second time within a year it's engineers have presented this country with 8 mar vicious triumph of science and mag. nificent aid to civilization, commerce and society. The exhaustive studies of our engineers concerning the mat ter of wireless telephony have given clear indications of both it's possibili- ties and it's limitations.
 '"The possibilities of wireless te- lephony, great as they are, will be mainly in the direction of extending the use of the wire system, and it's greatest utility will probably always he as auxiliary, tributary and supple mentary to the older system. For emergency and special use the new invention offers thrilling suggestions, and it's practical and economic value should not be underestimated, bat much of this is in it's connection with the wire systems. Its great valuo will be to supplement and extend the telephone service wire system in those situations where it is impossi- ble to string wires, and its use over wide eXpanses of water, desert, etc., opens up attractive fields to the imagination, especially when some way is found to ovecome the we'll known disturbances which interfere so much with all wireless communica- tions, whether telephone or telegraph"
 ]. J. Carty, chief engineer, when asked what he thought would be the limit of this new system of his com. pany, stated that he had no doubt whatever that when the necessary ap- paratus is installed 1t will be possi- ble to talk from New York to Tokio, Japan, using the transcontinental line from New York to San Francisco and wireless.
 The U. S. Navy Departments for nal announcement follows:
 Secretary Daniels is pleased to an- nounce the successful outcome of ex- periments which have been carried on for the last few months by the Amer ican Telephone & Telegraph Con- pany in cooperation with the radio stations under jurisdiction of the Navy Department, by which long-dis- tance telephony has been possible.
 ''The use of such long-distance wire less telephone communication in naval or military operations is still in an undeveloped state, b1t it is under stood valuable use can be made of this wonderful demonstration, but, aside from such considerations, the department and it's officials may well eel proud that they have been inter- ested -co-Qnerators in the first prac-
