POI.iTIC GOSSIP
BY Vance Chapman. Styled the
County Chairman.

Some years ago a prospective
political aspirant. with designs
on the Nonpartisan League
strong box, approached Alec. Me
kinzie. the well known North
Dakota politician. for advice. He
was ready to make the leap bat
had misgivings regarding the flu
ture. Alec asked the timid
one, "how long is the bunch good
for?" "Oh, about seven years
answered Alec carelessly. That
is about as long as the most of
EN- last" Questioning on the
part of Alec brought out the fact
that the prospective had a meal
ticket: that the vituals were fsir
and would last. Alec's advice
was to forget it. Sept. 23rd last,

pedestrians when they approach
a railroad track would stop and
remember that they are about to
cross the railroad RIGHT OF
WAY there would be les acci-
dents. But many drive right
ahead, cross the tracks without
looking to either side, just as
though it was their right OF way
and there should be nothing 70
hinder them. Those are the
things that railroads of course
cannot help peoples careless
ness for it will almost require
a board fence in front of cross
ings to make some auto drivers
stop and look but the railroads
can do many things to prevent
accidents which is in their pow
or. Auto drivers have no author
ity to go and widen the local
crossing, and they have no au-
thority to put up signals or bell
systems at crossings, to slow
down through trains through
villages, to order contractors or
bralsemen out to do their duty in
signalling at crossings when
freights are switching, etc. These
things are all being neglected
more or less at Askov.
And still we are waiting for
that poor little crossing extern
sion.

PEOPLE are coming to their senses

Speed is Not Worth the Price
Of A Life:

The recent collision on the
railway crossing in the village Of
Askov when Hans c. Hansen. a
local farmer had his automobi'.'i
smashed by freight car ough,
to serve as a notice to the Great
Northern Ry. Co. that it is about
time a wider crossing was put in
at this point.
After the fatal accident in May
when the lives of two Of Askov's
young people were laid down at
the same place the village council
petitioned the Great Northern
Ry. for some sort Of a bell or flag
system at this point. also for a
wider crossing. setting forth in
the petition that a wider eros
sing might be the mears Of
averting an accident. The cross
ing here is only rs feet wide and
80 feet was asked for. II is a
strange coincidence. but the mex
accident at this crossing the
one Of Mr.. Hansen's might have
been averted had the crossin
BEEN wider, SO that h, would
have had more space upon which
to get away from the freight
car.
After several weeks waiting
the Great Northern replied
through their local agent stating
that they could not grant the
bell system or other flag Signals
at this time on account of dull
business and hard times. Eyes
hard times, look at the freight
rates) but would put in a wider
crossing. This is more than two
months ago and we are still wait
ing for the wider crossing; looks
like too much red tape when you
consider that it is couple of
days job.
We are perhaps all more or less
inclined to have little sympathy
with big corporations and money
powers but SO long as nothing
unreasonable is being asked for
it should be granted and the
crossing extension should have
been here in quick order long
ago. The bell system to warn
people against oncomlng trains IS
of course much bigger item and
a constant expense as it has to
looked after and this mi ht be
asking considerable and Vet we
feel that it also is not asking toe
much.
Speed is NOT worth the p1i G
of a life!
II the Great Northern consid
ers it too much OF an expense Il
put in signal systems at villags
crossings it should be made t
run its through trains at a mucl
lower rate of speed and this
should be the case all over th'
state as well as the entire coun

The two lovers were very happy.
Every night when the moon shor. they
used to sit for hours under the pine

Then Black Puss said, although

Black Puss Cat often tried to tell
his beloved mistress and Mary Ann
that Miss Mouse lived in a mouse home
under the refrigerator, but somehow or
other they couldn't understand.
So one morning, when Mary Ann was
very busy giving the dining-room a
thorough housekeeping, he said to him

WHY MATsUE LOVED THE PINE.
IA :Iananaaa Legend.

"a Japanese Legend.
ATSUE was the pretty daughter
N of a fisherman who lived at
Avn Takasago, near where the great
Pine Tree of Takasago upheaved its
giant branches to the sky.
Matsue loved the pine tree and liked
nothing better than sitting under its
branches
Especially was she fond of the pine
reedles which fell from the tree, play
ing with them and even making herself
a beautiful dress and sash out of
them.
These were so beautiful that Matsue
declared she would save them for her
wedding day. though as yet no lover
had appeared to woo her.
IN another part of the country lived
Teoyo. a brave youth who was always
seeking adventures.
One day he stood on the seashore
watching a heron fly up to the blue
sky, far away, even over to the vii
lage where lived Matsue with her fam
lily.
"IIl follow that heron" said Teoyt.
"and see what kind of a land it has
flown to-"
So one day TIE .yo Owed into the sea
and swan away in the directio, il
which he had seen the heron fly.
1t was a long way. however. to Taxa

strength gave out and he lay helpless.

until he lost consciousness.
But the water did not drag him down.
but bore him along till finally it tossed
him. ashore almost at the feet of Mat

HANDSOME black

A HANDSOME black Puss Cat
u crouched before the only opening
which led into Miss Mouse's COM
Portable home.
Twas a very comfortable home for
Miss Mouse, because it was just where
she wanted to live.
This opening was very small. and as
it was under a very large stationary re-
frigerator it had only been covered so
far by handsome black Puss Cat. The
large refrigerator, although not NOV
able, stood on four stout legs, which
were six inches high. and so Mary Ann
the faithful maid in the kitchen, could
scrub under it with strong soapy water
several times a week. and many a
dousing little Miss Mouse received.
But she didn't dare squeak, because
she knew in her own tiny, mouse
heart, that she hadn't a right in the
world to be living in her comfortable
quarters, SO although the soapy water
made her eyes smart and her nose go
