u COAL OUTPUT.

The United States Geological Sur
vey has this very interesting review
of North Dakota's coal industry:
THE output of Ignite in North Da-
kota-the only mineral fuel of the
state-increased in 1914 from 495,320
short tons, valued at $3.50 $50 in 1913,
to 5O6,6S5 tons, valued at $771,,379.
The output of Ignite in 1912 was
499, 4S0 tons and in 1911, 502,62S tons.
The relatively small difference in
production during the last four years
indicate an absence of any f%1uctuat-
ing influences, and shows that active
development Of Ignite properties will
wait upon increased population.
"At present Ignite is consumed
chiefly for domestic uses, but when
properly handled with proper equip
ment, it can be used with satisfac-
ton as a boiler fuel. A convincing
example of what may be accomplish
ed with Ignite for boiler use is pre-
scented by the irrigation plant of the
United States Reclamation Service
at Williston, where the Reclamation
Service operates the mine and uses
the product in the generation OF
steam for its pumping plant connect
ed VITA the irrigation project at vii
liston.
At Kenmare, Scranton, and Dickin-
son Ignite is successfully used in
burning brick, and as it is smokeless
and sootless and is cheap, it is well
adapted to this use. As the sas-pro-
Queer and Observation-Disclosures en-
gines in large units come into more
general use in the west, as they are
rapidly doing in the east, the lignites
OF North Dakota will become great
factors in the settlement and econom-
ic development of the state.
ITO be successfully utilized, Ignite
unless briquetted) must be burned
in the vicinity of the mine from
watch it is taken. When freshly
mined North Dakota Ignite contains
from Is to 40 per cent Of moisture,
but on exposure to the atmosphere
It gives up q large part OF the moist
ure and Stacks or crumbles. Pro-
l0nged exposure reduces it to = rath-
er fne powder with oxidation and

SECOND YEAR OF A

This week ushers in the second
year OF war. With the declaration by
Germany of wal on Russia, August !,
the conflict really began. Few real
lied that the shot fired June %, which
killed the Austrian Arclduke, Fran
els Ferdinand, and his consort would
inf1ame a world.
Germany celebrates the first birth
day of the struggle by the virtual
capture of Warsaw. The Allies now
realize that this is a war to the des-
perate end. They have been too long
in reaching this conviction. If terri
tory occupied and held is any criteri-
on, the Teutonic allies win the first
lap in the bloody race.
It has been a year crowded with
horrors, carnage and poignant grief,
and the end is not yet in sight. Ideals
Of civilization have been shattered.
Christianity seems impotent to stem
tle waste OF human blood. Its man
dates for the time have been a5rogat-
ed by the sword.
Dreams of universal brotherhood
have been shattered-military laws
have supplanted the civil code and
martial rule is superior to all other
regulations. A world is in arms.
We can only hope and wait.

TAINTED POLITICS
BY Peter Radford.

This country is suffering more from
tainted politics than from any other
If1alady at the present time. There is
scarcely campaign speech made, a
platform demand written or a mea-
sure enacted into law that does not
carry the taint of personal gain Of
some politician or political faction
thereof
There is more blue sky in cam
paign promises of many politicians
running for Office than was ever con-
tained in the prospectuses Of the bold.
est promoters OF chimerical business
schemes There are more secret com
binations formed by politicians in the
name of my Country" than were ever
formed under any and all other
aliases. There are more political re-
bates hidden in the phrase BE it en-
acted than were ever concealed un-
der any and all other DISCUSSES.
The inordinate thirst for political
power and unrestrained passion for
mastery has caused more distress in
this nation than the greed for gold,
and it ought to be regulated by law.
No business combination ever pursued
their competitors as relentlessly or
visited more heartless cruelty upon
their customers than political party
that seeks to make junk of an in
dustry, or cripple business for party
success, through tariff measures, po.
litical supervision and ofttimes de-
struetive legislation. Many political
platforms are as alluring to the voter
ss the story Of the rainbow with its
pot of gold and their consummation
about as far-fetched. Self-gain is the
first law in politics. There are many
men in Office today who, If they
could not shake rlums off the tree OF
American liberty or cut melon taken
from Uncle Sans commissary, would
have less desire to serve the public
The country is surfeiting with patri-
OTIS, who will bare their breast to bull
lets in defense of their country, but
there are few men in public life who
will bare their breast to voters or run
the gauntlet of party disfavor in de-
fense of agriculture or industry. No
representative of the people, who will
permit personal prejudice to dethrone
justice, party success to disfranchise
reason or the rancor of a political
campaign to influence judgment can
render capable service.
The preservation Of our prosperity
depends upon wisdom, courage and
honesty in government, and the Amer
lean voter should seek these attri-
butes as implicitly as the Wise Men
followed the Star Of Bethlehem and
they will often be found to rest over
the stable; the plow or the staff of
the Shepherd. The surest cure for
tainted politics and machine rule is
fresh air and sunshine and these i'm
portant elements are most abundant
upon the farm, and when farmers,
bankers and merchants are elected to
membership in legislative bodies, much
of the trouble in government will dis
appear.

A DIVINE COVENANT.

God Almighty gave Eve to Adam
with the pledge that she would be his
helpmeet and with this order of COM
panionship, civilization has lowered
to its greatest heights. In this rela-
tionship. God has blessed woman and
man has honored her and after four
thousand years of progress, she now
proposes to provoke God to decoy
man by asking for suffrage, thereby
by amending an agreement to which
she was not party.
Woman. remember that the Israelite
scorned a divine covenant, and as a
result wandered forty years in the
wilderness without God. Likewise
MAI should remember that it is a
dangerous thing to debase woman by
law. Rome tried lowering woman's
standard and an outraged civilization
tore the clothes off the backs of the
human race and turned them out to
roam in the world naked and un-
ashamed.
