discussing the merits OF dement's Of

good Democrat can do himself or his,
party any good by .~affiliating with an
organization to the detriment of the
party which has stood for the highest
ideals in the government Of peoples
and nations since the time IT was
founded.
"'The Democrat believes that there
is no better time than this coming
election for tie Democrats of North
Dakota to vote solidly Democratic,
presenting an unbroken front to all
opposition. and to this end it urges
every Democrat to VOTE for Stephen
j. Doyle for governor, and likewise
for each Democratic candidate on the
ticket
THAT is my position today, I not
only am for Mr.. Doyle through the
editorial columns of my paper, but
personally and intellectually I am
favoring his election and will devote
all of my time and energy between
now and election day with that end in
view
"Cass county will go two to one for
Mr.. Doyle, and there nc longer is any
question in my mind as to the out
come. Mr.. Doyle will be the next
governor of North Dakota. All that
is required is vigilance on the part Of
our supporters during the balance Of
the campaign"

Democrats Want To
Meet Socialists

Bismarck. N. D.. Oct. 2s.-Demo-
cratic candidates for the legislature
In Burleigh county. who are on rec
ord for constructive legislation as OPP
posed to the Socialist program OF tho
Socialists in the Nonpartisan league,
have issued an invitation to the So
discussion of the issues involved.
An indication of how thoroughly
the Republicans and Democrats are
working in harmony for the repudia-
ton of North Dakota of Socialism is
found in the fact that The Bismarck
Tribune, one of the staunchest Re-
publican papers Of North Dakota, is
out in support of the Democratic can
didates for>the legislature. who are i.
o. Hellstrom, Victor Moynoir and +.
M. Thompson. -
Burleigh county has been thor

are that it will be strongly against

WILKINSON ASKS

nomination for governor of North Da-

So declared George Wilkinson Of
Fargo today. He has made a tour of
much Of North Dakota and returned
to Fargo this morning confident that
MI. Doyle will be North Dakota's next
governor.
Mr.. Wilkinson, very shortly after
the primary election of last June, In
an editorial in the North Dakota

Fargo, declared himself for the cleo
united support of his party men for
the nominee for governor.
at sincerely hope that every man
who cast his ballot for me in the June
primary election will vote, on Novem-

Wilkinson today. "It is essential to
the welfare Of the state that we should
place him in the governors chair, and
that we repudiate the Socialists and
the Socialistic principles for which the
opposing candidate for governor is
committed.
when the result of the primary
election vas known, I said in the col

""The issues are %clean-cut n the
coming campaign. This is no time for
halfway measures. Only a candidate
whose record is 100 per cent American,

accorded the support of the rank and
file Of the voters of the state. Stephen

WATER NECESSARY TO LIFE
Astronomer Can Prove That Other

All life is lived In water. Where

essary machinery may have been al
ready made, rs in u completely dried
seed, but that seed cannot actually live
until water reaches 1t again. TO live
Is to be wet or, in the phrase of Il
French student, Life is an aquatic
phenomenon" 'N'
When the supply of water is with
held from living things they may sur
vive, but their life is slowed down,
as 1t We're. In the completely dried
seed life is arrested altogether, yet the
creature is not dead. The French call
that u case of vie suspendue-or, in
our language, suspended animation.
After astonlshingly long periods, such
seeds Will terminate if they are WA

The astronomer tells us that our

5000 VOLUMES IN ONE WORK
Encyclopedias Of the Literature Of
China, Covering % Centuries, Is
Remarkable Production.

The Chinese department Of the Brit
ish museum library contains a single
work which occupies no fewer than
5000 volumes. This wonderful pro.
duction of the Chinese press was pur.
chased some years ago for $500, and
is one of only O very small number OF
copies now in existence.
1t is an encyclopedia Of the litera.
ture Of China, covering q period of IS
centuries. II owes its origin to the
literary proclivities of the Emperor
kang-he, who relgned from 1862 till
1922. In the course of his studies OF
the ancient literature of rhis oountry
kang-he discovered that, extensive cor
ruptlons had been al.owedtto creep In.
to the modern editions, and conceived
the idea of having the text Of the or.
igiDals reproduced and preserved in
an authorized form.
This was a mighty conception, truly,
and In the execution 1t remains unique
down to the present time. For the
purpose of carrying out the work,
Kang-he appointed n commission of
learned men to select and cOllate the
writings to be reproduced, and EN-.
ployed the Jesuit missionaries to cast
copper types with which to execute
the printing. The commission was oc.
cupied for 40 years In its great task.
Before the work was completed
Kang-he died, but he had provided tina,
his successor should see the book com
pleted. and he faithfully carried out
his trust. The book Is arranged In
six divisions, each dealing with n par.
ticular branch Of knowledge.
