HUMAN CORPORATIONS.

There was time when all corpora pms were referred to as heartless. pat was in a day when people failed recognize the fact ;. that humans Sere at the head of corporations just H men direct other enterprises. The Rartless corporation is thing of the E Lst, if it ever existed. Today human is supreme As evidence for this #e take the case of our local manu- zctories. One of these great firms Bsterday sent to the Herald office a Buntiful gift for our boys on the aexican border. When the request Sr tobacco was first made there was appeal to the manufacturers as a Mss. Each and every individual in se city was asked to contribute. The Nm in question, aside from sending a 5 Hodly allotment of tobacco followed Ms up with three hundred cigarette zses for the boys. Then, as if that
 Ere not enough it threw in three Bndred safety razors for good seasure. So that the boys at the 8pnt would not be wasting time Hopping blades three hundred dozen < these were added.
 #We cite these facts merely to show SRt there are still human beings in Hntrol of corporations, a fact that is Nining wider recognition as the years N on. In this one instance the man #A suggested the gifts was more than &man. His generous nature is %own far and wide in this oom- #1nity, wherever men gather. There KS been nothing of importance staged this locality but that his goodness heart has manifested itself. His Brit is reflected in the actions of the Nn with which he is associated. 8 8siness is not the only thing for Mich he lives, nor is selling goods Ne first, last and every end of the #n that gave the generous gifts #ough the Herald.

Gambling and Baseball.
(Detroit Journal.)

The closing of the Davenport, Iowa, minor league baseball park because it's former extensive patronage was downtown betting in poolrooms draws attention to the growth of an evil.
 In Boston a shooting scandal took place in the grandstand over betting on the game, and in New York the baseball owners are cognizant of the ace.
 In Detroit baseball gambling hand books are made in the downtown sa- looms. Such is the prosperity of the city that bets as high as $500 and $1,000 are made. In fact it has Quito usurped the pony handbooks in the local affections.
 Such a thing could be possible. of course, only under a favorable police regime. The same forces that kill playgrounds and schools are at work debasing baseball.
 Horse racing was sustained as sport until the bookmakers destroyed the sporting element and the race track was practically abandoned for the poolroom. We believe 1t quite impossible that any such sweeping ef- feet could be had on baseball Never theless baseball gambling is a menace.
 The actual organization of baseball is as clean as a whistle, and will doubtless remain so. But playing base ball with bets in poolrooms is the poorest imaginable substitute for tho great American recreation. And be- sides it is strictly against the law. if any policeman should ask you.

PROSPERITY

Because. of many impediments the presidential campaign is rather slow in getting under way. There are practically but four months left in which to make all. the arguments pro and con anent the man who should be the next President of the United states. If anything, this present in activity on the part of the political campaigners presages whirlwind finish. Then shall we see some fire
 works.
 The Republican party, according to all figures, will have some job on it's hands to unseat it's rival in the politi- cal realm. In the past this was not a difficult thing to do because the Re- publicans fell back on the one con- vlncing argument it always held in stock. This was Prosperity" In other days the Democratic party was looked upon as a calamity party and the Republican as the party Of pros- perity. Now the tables have turned. or at least have gone far enough around to show that the Republicans hold no monopoly on prosperity. To- day the Democratic administration is sailing in the fairest sea of prosperity ever ship of state rode. There is serenity on all sides The four winds carry it. Even Republican news papers admit this to be true. And the only explanation they make for it is such weak one it will not hold Weter. Four or five months or a wear ago this prosperity, like everything else, might have been blamed on the war Now the entire prosperity or the country cannot be reckoned against the terrible slaughter abroad LVen if it could the workingmen of the country have neither time nor in- cHnat1on to go into the manifold economic conditions that brought about the present wave.
 One Western newspaper, the Chi cago Tribune, which is not addicted to the habit of praising Democrats, says that the day has come when the Re- publican "bluff'' of fooling the people on the old "prosperity gag" must be called. It adds: People who have more money than they used to have will be very little interested. we sus- pect, in arguments telling them that by all the regular rules they ought not to have this money The answer is that they have it'' That is the final word. The people of the United States today are enjoying the greatest prosperity they have ever known. Street corner and soap box orators may get up and shout to their hearts content, may try to tell the people that this prosperity is only temporary. But the people will walk away smiling, for no man can point to any connec- ton and say: There is the controller Of the nations prosperity; it must end when the Kings of Europe push the button, when they end the 'War', No one knows how long it will last but so long as 1t does last it will be a difficult thing to beat And an old Republican argument dies hard.

BUSINESS GROWS RAPIDLY

The newly completed home of the
Western Newspaper Union, construct
ed at the corner Of Fourth street and
Fourth avenue north, at a total ex-
penditure Of $4,000, will be occupied
| by the company next Monday.
The task of removing the machinery
and other equipment from the present
| quarters Of the company, on the lower
floor Of the Walker Bros. & Hardy
| building, First avenue north. is al
| ready under way, and will be COM
pleted in time to begin operations in
the new home next Monday.
Absolute faith in the future OF
North Dakota and the prospect Of a
constantly increasing business in the
is evidenced by the Western Newspa-
per Union in the establishment of it's
splendid home here.
Established since 1890. the ready
print business, which has been the
main business of the Western News
paper Union in Fargo, has shown a
| constant and steady growth, until at
the present time the local branch is
third in point of production in the en-
tire organization.
Originally, the ready print business
in Fargo was established by G.. C.
Bowsfield, but 1t was shortly there
after converted to the Northwestern
Newspaper Union. and in 1910 the
Northwestern and the WSstern News
paper Unions merged, taking the name
of the latter.
From that small beginning in 1890,
the business has grown to such pro-
portions that it required the splendid
building just erected in Fargo by the
| company. .....
Under the direction of C. A. Rad
ford, manager of the North Dakota
office, for the past few months, and
under A. L. Westernhagen, his prede-
cessor, the business has grown very
| rapidly, each year showing good in
| crease over the previous year, that
condition continuing UP to the present
| time.
| w. ]. Kalus, head pressman for the
| company, today arrived in Fargo from
Chicago, and will be in charge of the
work of removing the machinery, and
of setting it up in the new plant.
| Shortly after occupying the new
home. the company will engage in the
wholesale paper business carrying a
big stock, which already is here.
