peal his case to the supreme court O.
the state in an effort to get Miss Mel
son out Of her office. For the love o:
Mike, Mac, don't you know when you
have received the knockout blow. Tha
man Macdonald has more tenacity
than the average bull terrier. The su
preme court has already once knocked
him out now he is trying to have thai
court land on him again.

1T is very delightful, for one thing
if l may say so, to know that my
presidency is not ahead Of me. and
that his presidency is ahead of him,
said President Wilson in referring to
DR. Epitacio Pessoa, president elect
of Brazil, at the dinner given DR.. Pes
soa by the Pan-American peace dele
cation last night. Such is an extract
from a speech delivered by President
Wilson at dinner given for the new
Brazilian president in Paris night be-
fore last. Friends of the president
take this as an indication that Mr.,
Wilson has decided not to again be-
come candidate for the presidency.

The editor of the Times Record has
decided to again give it's patrons the
press report of the latest doings of
the world as we did in the past year.
We discontinued this service about a
month ago because we felt that the
expense was too much to stand. But
there has been such demand for this
service and the people themselves
seem to like it and demand it in a
way, that the publisher feels that in
order to keep the paper up to the min
ute and live wire in the community
that we must again give this service.
However, we are going to boost our
advertising rates some. We cannot
in these days give the same service
at the old pre-war prices. We have
not boosted our advertising rates dur
ing the war while all around US have
done so and the Times-Record, which
is by far the best advertising medium
in this county, has been giving adver-
Using at considerable less cost than
any other newspaper in Barnes coun-
ty. On June first there will be raise
of price to 15c per single column inch,
excepting to those merchants who car
ry big advertising account. They
will get special rate according to the
number of inches carried but, even at
that they will have to stand raise in
rates. All front page advertising no
matter whether it will be from big
advertisers or little will not be car
ried for less than l5c per inch. If
people want to decorate the front
page of the Times-Record with ads
we will give them reasonable part of
the page at these rates. Inc publish
er feels that this paper is read by
more people in Barnes county than any
other publication-we know it pos.
itively from the kicks we get anc
from the bouquets we get. We fee
that every merchant is getting value
received from the advertising and nc
merchant who wants to see the daily
continue and to prosper will object tt
reasonable raise in rates. They can.
not get it any cheaper elsewhere anC
are paying little country papers that
rate and why should this paper take
less. Commencing Monday of mex
week we expect to give the press re-
port with the latest news to be OBJ
taired and ahead of any other paper
that can get into Valley City withou
any exception.

Mayor Moe has called upon the PEG
pie of the city to properly observ,
Memorial Day which comes on Ma.
80, Friday of this week, and suggests
that the stores be closed during tn,
afternoon of that day. The sugges
ton is good one. Surely we can Civ,
little attention to those who hav,
borne the brunt of the nations bat
ties in the days of 81 to '65 and ar
still with us and at the same time pa,
homage to those who gave their live
in the struggles of those days tina
the nation and the union might live
and as we come to this memorial da,
that has brought back to US thes
memories Of the past of the valian
dead it also has added significance thi
year as we realize with sorrow tina
we have those of our brave soldier boy
lying in graves on a foreign soil
patriots who have given their live
that freedom might predominant il
this old world of ours, Theirs ha
been great and noble sacrifice an
those of us who are living now an,
enjoying the blessings of peace cal
surely give little of our time to hon
or these heroes who have fallen in tn
great worlds war as we'll as those VIII
fell in the war of the sixties. Severa
officers who have been in service hav,
called upon Company G-those of tn
boys who have returned hereto es
cort the old soldiers to the memoria
services on decoration day. It woul,
be nice for them to do that and in ad
dition we wonder if all the soldier boy
Of Barnes county who could do $,
would put on their uniforms and joil
with Company G and make a gran,
escort to the older veterans and tn,
Woman,s Relief Corps. It would b
