TIE I ODL1N FONONl
BOOSTS H. w. HARRIS.-I have
been deeply interested in the discus
siOns in your columns, particularly
those having a decided political tinge
1t is odd to notice the adherents of
every Tom, Dick and Harry setting
forth the claims of their respective
candidates on the ground of super
human ability, while it is but natural
that the Socialists should plead for
the superiority of the principles of
their men.
To anyone with even the slightest
reasoning power this claim of the
'super-men" is easily discounted.
What the people of this state want in
the coming election is not sUpermen,
but representatives. And a repre-
sentative, to be worthy of that name,
must be one Of the people, the great
mass of the common people, i. e., the
great mass of the workers. Only a
wOrkingman can represent the work
ingmen.
Our candidate in the 21st sena-
toriaI district is just such a man. He
is a worker, a printer by trade, for
many years a union man, and now
carrying the endorsement of his or
ganization on his candidacy. H. W.
Harris, Socialist candidate for repre-
sentative in the 21st district is well
liked by all because of his interest
hUmanneSS.
At the time of the newsboys' strike
great numbers of the pickets were
arrested. Had it not been for the
support of a few of their loyal friends,
Big Business would have tried it's
best to make jailbirds out of the boys.
Harris owns the modest little home
he lives in and is known to all his
neighbOTs as a model citizen. He
pledged that little home of his to the
limit of it's value time after time so
that the kids should not have the
stamp of the Jail put upon them.

only the democratic side of the story.
The federal bank reserve act, sup
posed to prevent bank panics, does
not seem to be in effect lately, as the
last two years has set a record in
bank disasters.
AS far as keeping us out of war is
concerned, how about sending am
mUnition to Mexico, which was later
used to kill our own troops. At the
same time, coming down to facts
and figures, there have been more
Americans killed down in Mexico, Tin
our times of peace" than in the
whole Spanish-AmeTican war. And
or what reason? Because Pres.
wilson wanted Huerta to salute the

these men killed to have one man sa7

Married Couples Enjoy
Jolly Leap Year Party

Mr.. and Mrs. o. A. Barton and Prof.
and Mrs. L. B. McMullen gave a leap
year party Saturday evening which
capped the climax for social events so
far this new year. The affair was held
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Barton
and was attended by married couples
only, and the ladies surely gave the
gentlemen a few lessons in the proper
way to conduct such an affair. No
lady took her own husband, but es.
corted some other lady's husband to
the scene. Some of the invitations
and acceptances were quite unique,
many being in verse. The day before
the event the ladies showered upon
their gentlemen friends flowers and
sweets and in all ways fulfilled the
duties of gallant escort. Dressed in
dress coats, with black skirts and silk
hats, they called for their gentlemen
in takes and conducted them with due
courtesy to the Barton home, where
splendid four-course dinner was
served, covers being laid for 26. An
evening of jollity was spent and the
guests returned to their homes, the
gentlemen safely escorted by their
gallant ladies.

Land Lease Bill
Passed by House

Washington, Jan. 15.-The second of
the administration conversation meas.
ure, bill under which more than
100000 acres of public land would be
thrown open for lease by private in
terests, passed the house with roll
call. Immediately afterward the 640-
acre homestead bill was taken up with
prospects that it would be passed next
week. Opposition to the land lease
bill was confined principally to the far
western representatives, as in the
case of the water power leasing bill
passed last week. Led by Representa-.
tive Mondell of Wyoming, a group of
members from the west opposed par
ticularly in debates today the provi'
sion under which vast oil reserves
on public lands in California and Wyo'
ming would be developed under feder-
al leases. They contended that each
state should be permitted to regulate
the development of such resources
within it's borders.

Chafee Store IS Being
Practically Remodeled

The C. c. Chaffee store is undergo
ing some changes that will make this
popular store close rival of the
stores of some of the larger cities
when completed. The ladies' dress
and suit department is being enlarged
and booths, in beautiful mirror and
wood panelled eeffcts, are being plac-
ed around three sides of the large
room. These booths will be for the
hanging and storing of the splendid
stock of up-to-date garments carried
by the Chaffee store. The alteration
department has been moved to the 9TH
er room, new shelving and show cases
have been added, and many minor
changes made for the betterment of
the service and comfort Of both pa
iron and clerk. Valley City has some
splendid stores and this progressive
movement, which will bring a popular
store up still further in appearance and
efficiency merits the patronage of any
and all who are interested in the well
fare of home institutions.

Recorder Dies IN East

E. J. Moore, grand recorder of the
A. o. U. w., received a telegram an.
nouncing the death of Myron w.
Sackett, supreme recorder of the Au.
cient Order of United Workman, at his
home in Meadville, Pa, on Jan. II.
This is sad loss to all fraternalists
throughout the country, as he was re-
vered and beloved by all the fraternal
organizations. He was a charter mem.
Der of the first fraternal organization
in this country, in 1868, in the local
lodge at Meadville, Pa, and was one
of the most active and greatest ex.
Founders of fraternalism. He served
through the various chairs of the sub.
ordinate lodge and became supreme
master workman of the A. O. U. W.
in the year 1878 and 1879. He was
elected supreme recorder in 1880 and
has served in that capacity until the
day of his death.
In his early life he was an editor
of some repute, but he gave this up
to devote all of his time to fraternal-
ism. His book EARLY History of Fra
ternal Beneficiary Societies in Amer
ica," is we'll known and appreciated
by all fraternalists.

Corn Show Prize
to Wimbledon Boy

st. Paul, Jan. 15.-"If the boy corn
growers of North Dakota continue the
progress they have made in the last
year this state soon will be in the
front rank as a producer of Juvenile
agriculturists," according to Prof. r.
A. Moore of the university Of Wiscon-
sin, who finished judging the boys
exhibit at the first national corn show
held in the mammoth Hill railway
building this city. Trophy cup awards
valued at $4,000 were given by the
First National bank and the North
western Trust company. An excep-
tionally fine quality of corn was raised
by the boys of Montana, Washington.
Oregon, Idaho, the Dakotas, Wisc0n-
sin and Minnesota for exhibition ia
this show. These future greats in
the corn raising field are rapidly put
ting the Northwestern states on the
map as a new and wonderful corn belt.
"Why, the corn laid down here for
me to Judge has proven the most sur
prising in quality that l have ex-
amined in the long years of my as
ISOLATION with the grain," said Prof.
Moore. Considering Prof Moore's
great reputation throughout the United
States as a corn Judge, this statement
by him spells the highest tribute that
could be paid to boyhood effort in this
country.
There were no sweepstakes in the
show, the competition of the boy corn
growers of the eight states being con-
fined to the boys in the districts Of
their state. Following are the prize
winners in North Dakota:

feast. In the earliest ages none but
the kings, noblemen OF rank and mu.
sicians were allowed to possess harps.
For nobleman to be without such q
symbol of rank usually meant that his
position had been forfeited. As time
went on the growing popularity Of the
harp and the genius OF the poor people
IN performing upon the instrument
made it possible for all freemen to
possess harps This ownership was
one OF the three things distinguishing
o freeman from a slave. How much
those in bondage suffered from the re-
striction that slaves should not even
touch these instruments cannot be
easily imagined. Gradually the harp
became more and more common in
Erfn's isle until in the fifth century
there was scarcely q peasants hat
without one.
Religion, romance and valor were
still in the music, but after a while
songs Of everyday life crept into the
soul of the harp. The breezes OF sum-
mer. the chirping Of birds. the whirr
OF the spinning wheel, the singing of
the teakettle and the grooming OF the
baby were all echoed by the bards.
Few persons realize when looking at
1relands flag that the same musical
emblem was suggested as part Of our
national seal. On the Fourth Of July,
when the Declaration of Independence
announced that the thirteen American
colonies had formed themselves into q
new nation. congress saw the neces-
sity for a national seal. On that day
John Hancock appointed Doctor Frank
lin, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson
as a committee to prepare suitable
design for the seal of the new nation.
About a month later Thomas Jeffer-
| son submitted a design for each side
OF the seal. The plan for one side dis
played shield supported by the God
dess Of Liberty, holding a spear and
