W Business men all over the state have taken hold so nicely that a large and representative tody will be pres ent at Bismarck Oct. 20-21 With all the enthusiasm in behalf of education in North Dakota it would seem that common school teachers ought to command larger renumeration than servant girls. While it is necessary to ads to secure servant girls at $20 per month it is not strange that schools of fering $35 and $40 per month complain of difficulty in finding teachers. Chicago is noted for dirty streets, smoky atmosphere and apparent disre gard for artistic beauty but official re ports show that her death rate is the lowest of any great city in the world. Secret service officers are rounding up cranks attempting to interview the president at the White House with alarming frequency. Such cranks can't be turned down too quickly or forci bly. •*.

There were no deaths from drown ing yesterday in mud puddle holes on Broadway and Front Street pavements. The disposition to lynch should not be altogether attributed to a spirit of lawlessness. Is it not largely because legal procedure has become so fine spun that justice in our courts is $to often subverted? The western movement of coal ,on the great lakes during Augu&t was double the tonnage of the correspond ing month of 1902, which ought to aid materially in preventing a «oal famine next winter. Mayor Mayburv of Detroit has es tablished police censorship of theatres of that city. What's the matter with the decent people who patronize thea tres doing the censoring? It seems to be needed in a good many places. The Bismarck Tribune does not deny the assertion that there are twenty-one blind pigs in the capital city but points out that there were no arrests for drunkenness or disorder during the month of September. Is that intended as an argument in favor of blind pigs? the piggers. to consider irrigation in the state. There are less that two weeks in which delegates may inform themselves more fully regard ing irrigation, which is destined to be come one of the most important move ments in connection with the develop ment of, agriculture in this century. The Forum has published a great deal of information on matters pertaining to this subject and will continue to print whatever may be of interest along this line. The subject cannot be exhausted and the better informed delegates are before the convention the more intelli gent action they can take when that body assembles. There will be speak ers at the convention thoroughly infor med upon irrigation and conversant with what has been accomplished in this country. It is expected that among the notable commercial leaders present will be James J. Hill, president of the Nor thern Securities Co., who=c close inter est in everything that makes for in dustrial development in North Dakota and the northwest is generally recog nized. Mr. Hill's ideas on irrigation in North Dakota will have great weight with all. The success of the meeting, however, will depend primarily upon the interest shown from every part of the state. Organized labor is said to consist of some 2,000,000 It is said a couple of country schools near Amenia will make arrangements^* ions to the cook I'll have a nice rndk to have the pupils attend the village school, following out the idea of con solidation. The idea seems to be .a^ good one and might well be emulated by others. The payments of $50 rewards as the result of the conviction of blind piggers under the Sheils law thus far have caused no alarming depletion of the stable treasury. People seem to be morej Jhe Waiter called out: "Gimme a milk anxious to He Hd of the Wolves' than stewr' men in the United States compared with a total population of' over 80,000,000. It is the organized ef fort that counts, but its cardinal prin ciple must be justice to all, o£ it de serves failure. The appointment of delegates to the irrigation convention to be held at Bis marck Oct. 20-21 from all over the state indicates a large meeting, while the personnel of those appointed should •nake it the most representative and in fluential since ^tatehood. Every com munity should be represented at the convention. DESERTED AND DIVORCED. Mrs. Odney Oliver was granted a divorce yesterday by Judge Fisk of Grand Forks j^rom Stephen Oliver, on the grounds of desertion. The couple were married at Winnipeg in 1889, where the husband still resides, but with an other woman. Mrs. Oliver claims to have been deserted six years ago. She was allowed to resume her maiden name "f Miss Oddney Emarson and was given custody of her three children, whom she has supported since the father de serted the little family. Mrs. Oliver has lived in the states several years and will engage in dressmaking. Her hus band that was did not contest the di vorce action. GINGER ARRAIGNED AGAIN. Frank Ginger was arraigned before Judge McLoughhn of Grand Forks yes terday on a charge of assault with intent to commit a felony. He was held to the district court. A week ago Ginger was bound over on a charge of highway robbery. He is the man who single handed attempted to hold up five men tn a Great Northern car near Larimore. In the mix-up he shot J. H. Barnes in the arm with a revolver. The bullet was removed a week ago and Barnes left the hospital yesterday. Two other witnesses are held in the district court as witnesses against Ginger, who is described as the toughest looking tmn in the county jail. FINE BOOZE. Grand Herald: The whisky which the blind piggers sell to the booze cus tomers in this state for $1 a bottle costs Mie bootlegger 25 cents. This was testified to in the district court yesterday when Jame's Kain was arraigned before Judge Fisk on a charge of bootlegging at Larimore. Kain is a man over 50 years of age and while he denied that he had sold any whisky admitted that he had a supply of thirty-two bottles which he expected to sell at $1 per bottle. He added further that it had cost him 2$ cenfs a bottle and that he had four bottles of good whisky in the lot which he expected to drink himself.' The authorities claim that Kain sold eight bottles of the boose. He "has been a resident of the state a number of years and lately has been living in and around Larimore. Judge Fisk fined him $400 Wheatland, N.D. and sentenced him to ninety days in the county jail. The fine may be worked out in jail at a rate of $20 per STREET STORIES A certain well-to-do family on the north side has made it a custom for years to send a box of dainties and toys to their little country cousins, and pro visions and appropriate household goods to the groWh ups. The usual box was being packed, and the youngest scion of the house, a boy of 2 years, was watching the proceed ings with rapt interest. Before the cover was put on little Roger was asked if he could not con tribute something to send to his little cousin, Ruby. "I dess so"—and he toddled away. He shortly returned, holding his hob by horse by its remaining ear. There were only three legs, and one rocker, and it was minus the tail. "Des, mamma, give her dis." "But, Roger," she replied, "what will Ruby say to a horse witli only three legs, one ear and no tail?" Dropping his chin, he thought for a while, and then said: "I dess she'll say: 'Darn a horse 'dout a tail.'" He'll have two Sunday school ses sions next week. He was a youth fresh ffom the coun try, and when he hit Fargo his troubles began. He secured a position as bell boy in one of the local hotels and his troubles increased. A few days ago a guest, when assign ed to a room, informed the clerk that he would put up at the hostelry on the American plan. But after he got to his room he changed his mind, and asked the youth to tell the clerk that he would stay on the European plan. It was a new one on the boy, and he was up against it, but, rather than dis play his ignorance to the guest, he de cided to make a bluff. Approaching the clerk, he said: "The man I just took up to 101 said something about 'your seein' plant.' I didn't see no plant, but I suppose you know what it is." The clerk looked puzzled for a mo ment, then took a tumble, and laughed so hard that he upset an ink botd$.,and smeared his cuff w^th the fluid. ii "Have you any real fresh oysters that are very fine?" So asked the par ticular-appearing patron of a down town restaurant. Receiving an affirmative answer, he went on: "I am very, very particular as to how my oysters shall be cooked, and if you will kindly give these direc- stew: Pour off nearly all the liquor carefully, leaving just a little remain ing put some real fresh milk in the stewpan, then a little butter, some pee per and salt, and have the cook watch it carefully until the oysters have stew ed enough. \Can you remember all that?" The waiter looked worried, and nod ded. When he had reached the kitchen, V: T- UNPLEASANT SITUATION. Devils Lake Inter-Ocean: Yesterday morning William Nimo, Charles Ken nedy and Segard Serumgard went to a small island in Devils Lake where they had dug a pit, and prepared to shoot geese, lhe storm came up in the evening and the lake became so rough that it was impossible for them to return to the shore. They spent the night on the island without shelter or food except a lunch which they had tak en for the noon day repast yesterday. The lake is so rough today that it lias been impossible to reach them up to the time of going to press. It is re ported that they have been seen through glasses. The island is witliouf tim ber, in fact is a mere sand bar, and may have been swept by the waves. It is located about a mile ?rom the shore at Prosser's point. KEELEY INSTITUTE. The Westchester County Reporter of White Plains, N. Y., republishes a two column article from The PariS Figaro, being a description of a visit to the Keeley Institute at the former place, which is presided over by Dr. Boals, foremrly of Fargo. The special commissioner of The Figaro shows the wonderful work done by the Keeley In stitute throughout this country, and dwells especially on the class of people treated and the great per cent of pati ents who do not again return to their former habits, showing tha: it is their own fault if they thus relapse. He also advocates the introduction of the sys tem into France and other European countries. The article Is a high tribute to the work of the Keeley Institutes in general and that of Dr. Boals in par^ ticular. A WAY OPEN. MANY A FARGO READER KNOWS IT WELL. There is a way open to convince the greatest skeptic. Scores of Fargo peo ple have made it possible. The public statement of their experience is proof the like of which has never been pro duced before in Fargo. Read this case of it given by a citizen: Mr. J. W. Collins of 103 Eighth Street South says: "After a day's work my back fel* very painful. The secre tions from the kidneys were not clear but deposited a sediment in standing and my back pained me a great deat. About this time I saw Doan's Kidney Pills advertised at Wilser's drug store and got a box. I was surprised at the quickness with which I was benefited. I carried them in my pocket, took them right along and it was not long before my kidneys were working properly and the sediment in the secretions disap peared. I have had a sound back ever since. It was wonderful the thorough ness with which they worked. I can not say too much in favor of this remedy to others who have backache or other kidney ailment."
