At the northwest entrance to the
Eastwood Park addition of the city,
work has been begun by Mr.. O'Niel,
who is in charge Of the Roell building.
The basement is to be constructed Of
concrete and will be 4OX60 feet ard
will be so arranged as to answer the
present needs of the congregation.
The roof of the basement is so plan
ned as to become the floor plan of the
completed structure. Some PIG feet
of the new street paving will front the
church property. Two water and sew
err connections have already been COM
pleted to the property line which has
been paid for outright. The work Of
the church has been done in various
halls, and now meetings are held in
the high school building. The aim Of
this church is to be a real and vital
spiritual force in the life of the city
and communicated an added burden
to be supported by the public but an
institution to serve public needs. This
church, known as Christian (only),
not only Christian, is the local organ
ization of the religious body known
as Disciples of Christ. While their
work in the city is only about two
years old, they have made splendid
growth in spite of the fact of incon-
veniences in the way of meeting
places. They are therefore to be con-
graduated by reason Of their growth
and service rendered.

HUGHES IN NORTH DAKOTA.

During his addresses in North Da-
kota last week, Hughes, republican
presidential nominee, attacked Presi-
dent Wilson on his Mexican policy and
also on his international policy. In
making his campaign, it is up to
Hughes to point out Wilson's mis-
takes. This is what he is doing dur
ing his journey across the continent
He is not giving any remedy at this
time, but states that he will do so
later. President Wilson is figuring
on following up the republican candi-
date so it is possible that North Da-
kota will have an opportunity of siz-
ing up our president at first hand be-
fore the campaign is over. Mr.. Hughes
made an excellent impression while
in North Dakota. He is not noted for
his oratory. His voice was in poor
form and he was unable to speak out
side, so that thousands who visited
Grand Forks and Fargo were turned
away. The Bull Moosers of North
Dakota are going to back Hughes.
They will take steps to keep their
party organization intact, however,
and it is possible that Lauder and
few other Progressives will go over
to Wilson, but the rank and file of the
state Progressive organization can be
marked up in the republican column.
Mr.. Hughes realizes he has pretty
fight on his hands. Wilson is perhaps
stronger than he was four years ago,
but he needs to be for there will be no
fight this year to weaken
the republicans.

NO LET-UP IN BUILDING

The bad crop scare does not seem to
make any difference to the people of
Minot who are in the building business,
and it is well that these men do not
scare easily, for the future Of Minot
is assured to the extent that it will
always have healthy growth for a
number Of years to come. There is no
use Disgusting the fact that large
number of the people of the North
western part of this state go to the
Twin Cities every winter, or go to the
Pacific coast to spend their dollars.
This year the wheat crop is just short
enough to make these same people
pause and decide that the Twin Cities
and the Pacific coast country are lit
tie too far away and they will come to
Minot several times during the winter
instead.
Minot is an attractive city to come
to, whether it is to trade or spend a
couple of weeks in idleness and pleas
ure or business. Winter sports will
receive new impetus this coming
winter and all lovers of outdoor sports
will have an opportunity to have their
fill right here in Minot, where there
are hills and water-or rather CONCEAL
ed water in the winter.
This city will become the mecca of
thousands this winter and the people
of Minot will do their full share to
make their stay pleasant and profit
able.

ONE LESSON TO BE LEARNED

"Sweet are the uses of adversity,'
says the poet. Most Of US will be will.
ing to accept the statement without
actually making the test. And yet, we
see evidences quite often that a little
adversely is important in teaching
some of the lessons Of life. In some
sections Of the northwest this year
even enhanced prices will not make up
for the lessened crop yields, and we
may expect our farm incomes this
year to be materially less than they
were year ago. 1t follows that in a
number of lines there will be some re-
auctions in business activities. One
of the lessons Of the situation is that
of the common interests of GU rpeople
Of their dependence upon each other
When times are "flush" these
things are not always appreciated. But
when real need arises there comes to
us very forcibly the lesson that more
than we need anything else we need
each other. That community can and
does make most rapid progress in
times of prosperity, and is infinitely
best fitted to weather the storms of
adversely whose people stand togeth-
er, work together, and realize that in
a very real sense human beings must
live for each other.

The writer has made inquiries and
Investigations galore concerning the
various crops in this section of the
state and while the conditions are not
very rosy, we will have far better than
a total failure. The wheat crop is a
great disappointment There are some
fields of macaroni or durum wheat
and Marquis wheat which were sown
early, that are in very fair shape.
These are now in the shock and they
will average from eight to twelve
bushels or better, which isn't so bad,
considering the market price. Barley
is not bad crop. The growth is
short but the heads are well filled. In
some cases, the oats have yielded we'll
Flax and corn are both good crops
There is plenty Of good hay. The late
wheat, such as Bluestem, is not at all
good. The black rust struck many of
the late fields of wheat and it is ques-
tionable whether it will pay to cut
them or not Some of the farmers
will not cut the late wheat, but others
are slashing it down and will get what
they can out Of it. Some of the poor
est of the late wheat will not be
threshed. A little which has been
threshed showed an average of but
three or four bushels per acre. Now
these are conditions about as near as
the writer can describe them. The
country is not in bad shape Some
ers will make some money. Well get
ers will make some money. Well get
along nicely, however. Every farmer
has his cows, hogs and chickens, so he
is going to live on the fat of the land

SIT TIGHT-DON'T
ROCK THE BOAT

The newspapers of the state are full
of hard luck stories these days, jus1
because one of our staple crops has moi
come up to expectations. 1t is true
that wheat is the staff of life, but
there are other props to an existence
these days in the great state of North
Dakota.
In 1910 this state was really visited
by something terrible in the way of a
crop-devastating hot wind, that shriv-
eled up all vegetation. Even the feed
crops were on the blink, but so far as
we are able to learn not one person
starved, or one family was in actual
want during the succeeding year. In
fact, great wave of optimism swept
over the state, and large number Of
our farmers straightway went into
the stock business in small way and
are today independent of any old
wheat crop.
Take for instance: In the year end
ing July LIST, 1915, over $4,000 car
loads of livestock of all kinds were
shipped out of the state The year of
1910 or 1911 did not show any record
of this kind. And strange to say, the
men who have livestock this year are
doing the least kicking about the short
wheat crop
This year there is going to be an
abundance of feed so that all who go
into the stock business will have a fine
start It is expected that banks will
be rather liberal with farmers who
have to borrow money with which to
purchase stock.
Some of the farmers of the north
western part of the state would like
to get some sheep, but at the present
time sheep are selling on the hoof in
Montana at eight cents per pound, and
this price is thought rather high.
Sheep run into money rapidly, and be-
sides they are good weed cleaners.
Even at eight cents per pound they
would pay quite WELL

that every man who pays for two gal
Ions Of gasoline this summer when he
gets only one gallon is the helpless
victim of "gentleman's agreement"
Yet the commission will make an un-
favorable report upon Representative
Steenerson's bill giving the commits
sion power to fix the prices for gaso-
line and petroleum products. But let
the house know the facts and it will
mix a bitter dose for the oil barons.
Unless it does, the people back home
will mix an unsavory dose for the
house members who lie down on this
most fragrant and audacious abuse Of
the privilege of monopolizing the nat
ural resources Of this country which
has ever been recorded.

BITTER DOSE COMING

St. Paul Dispatch: The report of
the Federal Trade Commission, on the
rise in gasoline prices, which, it is ex-
pected, will be made public next week,
will be awaited with intense interest.
At least it is assured us that few
things have been found out The COM
mission will be weak on recommends
tons. But who cares? The facts are
the thing. Congress need not depend
on the trade commission for it's policy
The commission has found out enough
that it attributes outrageous prices to
"an apparent lack of sufficient compe-
tition between companies producing
gasoline" This is equivalent to a
charge that prices are artificial and

There may be no railroad strike.
The railroad managers are willing to
grant the eight-hour day to the en-
ployes, providing the employees will
grant concessions so that too heavy
burden will not be placed on the rail
roads. The employees state that they
principally want an eight hour day on
the conditions that it be enforced
whenever possible. They want straight
time for the eight hours and time and
g. half for all overtime President
Wilson is working with both sides and
it is hoped that the strike will be
averted. In case there is strike. it
will tie up 1,700 railroads of the
United States and business will be
crippled as it never has been before.

If all Of the people of Minot would
decide to go to church next Sunday
morning, not more than one-fourth of
them could get inside the doors. OF
course, they are not all going to try to
go to church next Sunday nor the
Sunday after, but the interest in
church work in the city is growing.
Work on another new church building
has started. More people are becom-
ing regular attendants of the various
houses Of worship each year. Our
churches have total seating capacity
Of nearly $500, but it is seldom that
the ministers have the pleasure of
speaking to capacity houses. A large
number of children right here in Mi
not have never attended Sunday
school.

The question has been asked of late
why Minot business and professional
men do not help to form companies for
manufacture and distribution of goods
from Minot. The answer is simple,
yet sufficient. Their business has
grown SO rapidly that all their ready
money has had to revert back into the
business for larger new quarters and
larger stocks. Besides the average
Minot man believes in sticking to that
which he knows most about-his bust
ness.

Maybe after while the farmers who
interest themselves in these new plants
will realize that our lot is not a bed
Of roses, and that there are other bust
nesses that pay much better. We have

on the car, that totals up to nearly

1t has been suggested that it might
be a good thing for Minot business

packing plant for Minot. Stranger

that sounded whole lot more fool
ish. Surely this city is ideally located
for such plant, and it should be a
paying investment.
