POWER or PRESS.

Dr.. A. Eugene Bartlett, a Brooklyn
preacher, pays a glowing tribute to
the press.
If the newspapers had been in ex
istence probably Christ would not
have been crucifed.
If thenewspapers had been in ex.
istence the Sermon on the Mount
would have been published il the
Jerusalem Gazette, and all the Pales.
tine newspapers would have had FLAIR.
ing headlines announcing his cruel
fixion. 1t is doubtful, if there had
been newspapers in those days, that
Christ would have been crucified.
With newspaper, the words and
works of the new prophet would have
been given to the people, and they
would have better understood him.
The members of the Sanhedrin that
plotted His death would have been
afraid of the arraignment of the press
and would not have dared to carry
out their wicked designs upon an in
nocent man for fear that the news
papers would give the facts to the
people and they lose thereby their
popularity with their W constitu-
ency.
"Jesus looked not only to the Bible,
but to nature and to man; he stud
led the signs of the times. Living to-
day, he would read the newspapers.
He might condemn the Sunday pa
pers because they were taking so
much time that men ought to give to
worship, possibly, He would have dis
liked the Monday editions because
they took away other mems Sundays;
but / do not feel sure of this. 1t may
be that He would simply have asked
for all men one days rest in seven.
II have been reading hundreds of
newspapers this week, from the east,
west, north and south, reading not
only headlines, but also fine print,
and in the little type I found the
greatest encouragement to my faith.
What did find? That human life
is growing more sacred. I note the
published record Of the Pennsylvania
railroad, 18S,0co, 900 persons carried
last year, and not one passenger lost
in a railroad accident. The lowest
death rate in the history of New York
was reached last year. A course il

UNIFORM TEXT BOOK
Law IS INTRODUCED

Senator Rowe introduced a bill in
the senate yesterday providing for
uniformity of school text books in
each of the common, independent and
special school districts. The bill pro-
vides that the publishing firms must
file a copy of their books in the of.
flee of the state superintendent OF
public instruction.
The bill is aimed at an alleged
school book trust in North Dakota.
Each publishing company under the
act is compelled to file a surety bond
of not less than $4,000 and not more
than $4,000, so as to insure the sale
of books at regular listed prices, that
quality shall be uniform and that no
company shall enter into combination
to restrict competition in the sale of
text books. Is
Provision is made to administer the
law through cooperation between the
various school officials and the state
superintendent of public instruction.
Senator Murphy introduced a bill
providing for a uniform system of &C.
counting for county, Offices.

Legislative Notes

This is the open season for legisla-
tive Investigations. State. officials
greet each other now with: Have
you been investigated YETI"
Owing to failure of the public print
err to incorporate the senate joint and
general rules in Tuesdays journal, the
senate was unable to complete it's con-
slderation of the rules.
c. l.. Eiken of Parshall, N. D., was
a visitor at the state house yesterday.
Mr.. Elken's father, G.. L. Elken, was
for years a senator from Trail coun-
ty. About. the time of the last prim-
airy election the senator's vocal or.
gans were affected by a slight stroke
of paralysis and on account of his con-
dition he was forced to withdraw his
name as a candidate for senator at
the primaries. He is now reported as
gradually recovering the use of the
organs affected.

Some Rain

The reports coming in from May
Valley of the rain yesterday afternoon
would indicate that all records for this
section have been smashed to smither-
Gems. The heavens just opened up
and poured it down for nearly three
hours. According to our information
coming from most reliable and trust
worthy sources the gauges show all
the way from inches to feet, and
while we are not giving out any esti-
mate as official all reports show there
was plenty of water fell. A stream
almost a mile wide and several feet
deep was flowing down May Valley
this morning, and it will be several
days before the extent of the dam
age can be ascertained. There is such
a thing as too much even Of a neces-
sity and rain is no exception to the
rule. The moisture will do a big
amount Of good, but to the crops just
starting there has been a considerable
damage also. The rain has been very
heavy over this entire section but no
where else so heavy as in May Val
ley. In Lamar it amounts to over
two inches and south Of US nearly
double that.
