THE TURK

The author of the following poem
is an Armenian by birth, tho he has
lived in many countries and learned
many languages. The poem was
written first in French. This is the
authors own translation:
Under the old beech-tree, by the
wayside, dreaming
In the limpid silence of a dawn in
summer,
Sat the aged chieftain, lone, and
medita;ing,
His weary look fixing the blood on
his sabre.
The nights work was we'll Gone.
Ally, chat was his name)
Had bravely fought and won for the
great Mohammed,
The battle of his race, Of long CEN
turtles fame,
And yonder lay the pile Of the inf
dels, dead.
His eye-lids gently fell and a smile
was reborn
On his parched visage, like a ray in
the night.
His breast rose, his soul sang, and
thru the silent morn
Two trembling lips gave thanks to
Allah's distant might.

BEREA LOOKS GOOD AFTER
THREE MONTHS ON
PACIFIC COAST

Treasurer and Mrs. Osborne re-
turned on Tuesday from California
and other parts of the West, where
they have been travelling and visiting
for the past three months.
Their trip covered a distance Of
over 1000 miles, going out over the

returning thru the magnificent Ca

They are enthusiastic about the

Northwest, but Berea has lost none
Of its charm during their absence,
and they are glad to return again
TO its familiar scenes.

The Greatest Deed of All

Emmanuel with followers tired and sore
Entered evening through open door
And sought a place wherein to break his fast
And eat the supper which should be the last;
But ere he ventured to the inner place.
He turned about with sad and weary face,
And seated him upon a simple seat
And waited for a friend to wash his feet.
The friend did not appear, for by the gate
The followers did chance stand and wait,
And held dispute DER who should lend hand
To wash the feet of all the weary band.
Long did they argue till the hour grew late,
Nor did they choose, did their wrath abate
But finally into the they stole
Apast the towel and the waiting bowl
The sorrow on Immanues forehead grew;
He his friends, whose lave he thought was true.
Dsputng DER a simple courtesy,
Each hoping that his neighbor might decide
To put away his dignity and pride
And wash the feet of all the company.
Emmanuel slowly to his feet,
And babe his followers each to take a seat
And, girded with a towel, he began
To wash the weary feet of every
One entered protest at the blessed deed
protest which the Master did not heed
Behold if | wash not thy feet said he,
"Thou hast part in Paradise with
Each human life given from above
To humanity, and love,
And whosoe'er the Lord has given you,
That is the basin and towel too,
Which all should without one falterng word
To bless humanity and the Lord"
Thus did he speak, and all the company
Bowed down before the great Divinity
Who in humility rebuked their strife
And showed them how to win eternal life.

TAKE TEN INNING BALL
GAME FROM NOWLIN

Philip took ten inning contest
from the Nowlin team here last
Sunday. The game was close and
interesting in spite of the numes-
Gus errors, which were about even
ly distributed between the two
teams.
Humbert pitched the game. for
Philip and aside from one bad in
ming showed good form. He struck
out eight and allowed nj as.

test. Bradley had two trike--outs
to his credit and allowed nine
hits. Only one hiti was male cii.
Staley in the two innings. Swisnef
caught for Nowlin and aside from
bad trow and a couple Of pass
balls did very good work and held
the local runners pretty close to
the initial sack.
Humbert famed the first three
batters up, but unfortunately the
third man was safe when Griffith
dropped the third strike and Fitz-
gerlad muffed his throw to first. A
hit, walk and another passed
ball netted Nowlin one score. Two
errors and a hit resulted in one
run for Philip in her half of the
first inning.
Neither side scored in the Sc
cond. In the third a hit by A. Rog-

able to score.
Two Nowlinites were on bases
in the fourth when the third man

Philip on Bradley's error, Lins sim

netted one score for Philip in this
frame.
Nowlin came near to sewing the

the coveted run. In the last half

Fitzgerald singled but was forced
out at second on Carr's grounder,

HAAKON COUNTY FAIR
AUG. 31st, SEPT 1st & End

Plans are now under way for the
Haakon County Fair which will be
held here August 31st, September
lst and End. Edward A. Lins, sec
retary in connection with the
board of county commissioners,
has been busy this week arrang-
ing the premium list, advertising
and program for the three big
days.
We want to impress upon the
farmers of the county that this is
their fair and it's success will be
be exactly in proportion to the CO.
operation they give those in charge
of it. Every one should make an
e ort to have an exhibit at the
fair. There is no reason why, with
the present crop prospects, we
should not have the largest and
best agricultural exhibit in the
history of the fair, and we believe
we will have.
We are not able at this time to
give any definite information as to
the entertainment features, but
have been assured that everything
that goes to make up successful
fair in every particular will be
provided.
Get ready to bring in the largest
exhibit you have ever shown and
get one Of the premium lists to be
published soon. Further informa-
ton will be given through these
columns from time to time.

RESULT OF PRIMARIES
IN THE VARIOUS STATES

Eight states have held primar-
les at which nominees for Con
gress were selected by all parties.
In these primaries 90 republican
members of the present House of
Representatives we're candidates
for denomination on the Republi-
can ticket. OF these 80, the vast
majority were unopposed. OF
those who were opposed in the
primaries, only six wee defeated,
two in Illinois and four in Penn
sylvania. Summed UP, out of 81
republican members of the pres
ent House of Representatives who
have gone before the people of
their districts in primaries this
year and asked for an Endorsement
of their record and tee record Cf
the Republican Congress 93.5 per
cent have received that indorse-
ment. The following is detailed
statement of the results il each
state where a republican primary
has been held to date:
South Dakota: The entire repub-
lican delegation in the present
House, three in number, asked for
denomination and all secured re-
nomination.
Illinois: 81 republican members
of the present House asked for re-
nomination and 10 received renom-
ination.
Indiana: IL republicans of the
present Houye asked for renom-

| Iowa: 10 republican members of
the present House asked for re-
nomination and all received re-
nomination.
Maine: The solid republican de
legation, four in number, asked
for denomination and all received
denomination.
Minnesota: The solid republican
delegation, 10 in number, asked
for denomination and all received
denomination.
The query naturally arises: If
there were any widespread dissat-
isfaction with the record of the
present House why does it not1
manifest itself? IF this Congress
were in fact the "do nothing"
Congress that it's DemGeratlc cri-
tics represent it to be why don't t
people refuse to endorse its mem
bers? If the people of the country
were as dissatisfied with the pres
ent administration as the demo-
cratic leaders and publicity med
iums claim they are, would not
this dissatisfaction show itself at
the polls when the present repub-
lican members of the House of re-
presentatives present themselves
| to the voters of their districts ask
| ing for an Endorsement not only
of their individual records but of
the collective iccori cf the Lon
gress Of which they are member
and of the record OF the republican
party and administration to which
they have given their undivided

ELECTS OFFICERS

A meeting of the Farmers Co.
Operative Company was held at
the company's elevator in Philip

well attended by the members and
stockholders of the organization
from various sections of the ter
ritory. After hearing report of
the past years business the mat
ter of the coming years business
and it's conduct was discussed, and
another meeting to further go into
this matter will be held next Mon
day July 18th. We may say how
ever, from what we learn from
the stockholders, that the showing
made during the past year was
most satisfactory.
The following board of directors
was elected for the ensuing year:
John Dunlevy, president; M. B.
Kellogg, secretary; Fl. B. Vaught,
Paul Gottsleben, Mike Krogstrand,
E. L. Verley and William Burns.

AGAIN BREAKS RECORD
FOR CREAM SHIPMENT

A couple Of weeks ago we men,
tion the fact that 1863 cans of
cream we're shipped from this sta
ton in a single shipment. That
seemed to us very good record.
But the record for last Saturday
night went it % cans better,
total of 1877 cans being loaded by
the east bound train that night.
From figures secured from one
of the local dealers, who handled
II cans on that day, we learn that
he paid out S652 .95 on that day,
an average of SO. 1875 per can. As
suming this is fair average for
the 1877 cans for that day, the far
mers of this territory received
$1811 ID for their cream on last
Saturday.
The milk COW is certainly doing
her share this year towards pay
ing off the mortgage on the old
