SHOULD BE ENCOURAGED
Bishop, the widely advertised press
agent of the Panama commission, ad
mitted before a congressional com
mittee that he was the "historian
of the commission." He decided that
bis mission was "not to create public
sentiment, but to keep it'normal."
The Evening Times, which is at
peace with all the world except mug
wumps, hastens to thank Mr. Bishop
for this happy expression. Hereafter
Tlie Evening Times and Mr. Bishop
are comrades.
The man who undertakes the volun
tary task of "creating public senti
ment" must first assume that he is
bigger than the public.
Some one tried the experiment on
"old Grant" a quarter of a century ago
and made a miserable failure of it.
It is true that the self-constituted
teacher succeeds in making consid
erable noise in the community. His
plan of campaign is invariably one of
destruction. He imagines that in
order to build himself up he must first
tear others down, and as he proceeds
in his quest, one extreme begets
another, until in the end he adopts the
methods of the yellow journal and the
scarlet magazine, dealing out censure
to the whole human family and rail
ing against the institutions and cus
toms that society has struggled for
more than two thousand years to es
tablish. With him aud his cult there is
nothing that is good, and the very
globe totters upon its axis, ready to
leave its trolley and plunge into in
finite space, unless his peculiar views
are adopted and his schemes substi
tuted for those already wrought out
by time and experience.
"Not to create public sentiment, but
to keep it normal," says Bishop. Here
is a new ethical philosophy tersely
stated. It is worthy of rich endow
ment. The world is in need of more
Bishops. Ten thousand a year is not
enough for such a teacher. The man
who can "keep public sentiment nor
mal" deserves a laurel crown, for he
must surely possess the ability to risp
above the petty things that" are ivy:
gnawing at the vitals «i society
threatening the destruction of every
Wholesome force designed by Nature
to perpetuate human happiness. He
would eventually circumvent the sen
sationalist, dispel hysteria from the
land and supplant the twin monsters,
viciousness and atheism, with a reign
of genuine Christianity.
.£ ENFORCE THE LAW.
In 1899 the people of North Dakota
put a clause in our constitution, pro
hibiting the manufacture, sale or giv-
1*
lag away of intoxicating liquors, and
the jlrst state legislature supplied the
necessary statuatory machinery for
carrying the constitutional provision
Into effect.
In the opinion of The Evening Times
there is not a state law that has been
no persistent violated as the one to
which we refer.
Beyond a reasonable doubt a large
jr majority of the people of the state are
Vlargely in favor of liquor prohibition,
tend there should be a still greater ma
's/'
jority who are in. favor of upholding
!the law. Indeed it would be difficult
to believe that any considerable num
her of persons could be found, even
m/M*Bwng
those who,, are opposed to pro
on ad at he
ft***. of any law. And yet this
plrfWrtemn statute is openly disobeyed

Dakota should be sufficient to com
mand for it the respect of every law
abiding citizen.
The fallacious maxim that a bad or
unpopular law is better honored in the
breach than the observance is a doc
trine both mischievous aud danger
ous and should be studiously shunned
as such.
Intoxicating liquor is the most
blighting enemy of the human race,
it should be eradicated. Every good
citizen should set himself against its
use. It has destroyed more people
than all the wars in history, and if
the laws enacted against it are diso
beyed. as is the case here in prohibi
tion North Dakota, ultimately neither
governments nor nations can endure
against it.
The Evening Times, which proposes
to take a hand in some practical re
forms in North Dakota, will insist up
on a strict enforcement of the prohi
bition law.
MIMt'II'AL LIABILITY.
It is a fairly well settled principle
of law that permission of ice and snow
on the streets of a city constitutes
muncipal negligence for which it
would be liable in damages for per
sonal injuries resulting therefrom. It
is true that to connect an injury re
sulting from a fall on an icy pave
ment directly with the accumulation of
the snow and ice is a rather difficult
matter in legal practice. Courts how
ever, are gradually construing the rule
of law in such cases more liberally so
that in some states the recognized rule
now is that if the ice exists, and the
city has not used reasonable diligence
in removing it, and personal injuries
are sustained by a fall on the pave
ment, the munclpality is bound in dam
ages. The courts of this suite have not
gone so far, but the muncipal corpora
tion could at least be given serious
legal trouble for such injuries. The
conditions in a number of the cities of
this state are certainly deplorable dur
ing the greater part of the winter.
The first snow remains where it fell
on the pavements untill the warm
zephyrs of spring send it into the gut
ters as water. Walking becomes not
only inconvenient, but actually dan
gerous to limb and body. It takes but
a small effort on the part of each citi
zen to keep the walk clean, and not a
very serious effort on the part of mu
nicipality to see that it is done, while
the comfort and convenience of the
pedestrian is immeasureably Increased.
Ward county official life has been
decidedly strenuous recently. First
came the cancellation of Auditor Fa
brick's official bond and the resultant
investigation of his office. This was
followed by the charge of malfeasance
in office preferred against three of the
county commissioners by the auditor,
and on top of this a mandamus pro
ceeding against the auditor to compel
him to sign a warrant which he con
tends was not properly allowed by the
commissioners. With the arrest and
pending trial of Major Murphy for a
background for all this, it would seem
that holding office in Ward county is
not by any means a pathway strewn
with roses.
A Strenuous Exit.
"The vicissitudes of us actors," said
James K. Hackett, "are incredible."
He smiled pensively at the luminous
glass table of his New York house's
dining room, a table with electric
lights so arranged beneath it that its
glass surface emitted a glow now
pink, now orange, now scarlet.
"luciwl'hle," he repeated. "There

Brown, who went
touring in
Souiii Africa last year. I met Brown's
cousin yestertl'.iy.
"Well, how is .Tim?' said I.
"Jim?" said the cousin. 'Body o' me,
man, Jim, is dead.'
"Pelted to death with eggs at Cape
Town,' the cousin answered.
"But eggs don't kill,' said I.
"He smiled sadly, and murmured:
"Ostrich eggs do."
The Afterglow.
Somewhere as time passes onward.
As the years come and go.
When my heart has learned its duty.
And submissive lyeth low
Somewhere when the sun appeareth,
In the setting of silvery gold.
My life shall then be comforted,
Freighted with love untold.
Somewnere there await the "green
pastures,"
There's a gentle, pecaeful calm.
To follow the storm that engulfs me.
A life pulsing the beautiful psalm
Sometime, as the years glide onward,
The Master will bid me rest,
And the wrongs will all be righted.
And the afterglow he blest.
Somewhere, there's a glorious sunrise
After the fury-storm tossed night.
Then will follow the evening twilight,
Then the noon-times glowing 'tiight
Somewhere in the untold future.
As the sunsets come and go,
My heart shall find Its comfort
Tn the beautiful afterglow.

THE COST OF LIVING
IN WASHINGTON
F. T. Lincoln
What does It cost to live in Wash
ington? This is a question often put
to one who has lived there by people
back in the states and the answer
might in truth be made "all that you
can earn."
But It will be of Interest to our
readers to learn something of»the ab
solute cost of living In the Capitol
city as compared with that in other
large cities and the statement that it
costs 'all one can earn" is to be taken
with a degree of salt, to use the ex
pression.
The oppurtunities to spend money
in Washington are many and the al
lurements so subtle and so seductive
that one parts with the dollars almost
unwittingly, entranced by the charm
of the beautiful metropolis situated
upon the banks of the historic Poto
mac.
But to be fair and candid, the actual
cost of the commodities of life in I
Washington is not in excess of that of
nearly any of the larger cities, in fact
considerable less and it is owing to
the following out of one's inclinations
to live and enjoy the beautiful'that the
cash seems to dwindle away so rapid
ly in the capitol city.
Washington is situated in the heart
of a productive country. Across the
broad Potomac, the fertile farms of
Virginia furnish an abundance of the
products of the dairy and the garden,
It is a common sight at early morn
ing time to witness truck cart after
truck cart moving along the roads
leading to the city laden with rich
products of the Virginia and Maryland
farms and gardens. The great mar
ket in the center of the city is the mec
ca for which these gardeners are head
ed and In no market in this country
can more and a better quality of edi
bles be purchased than In the markets
of Washington.
Situated as it is on the Chesapeake
bay, sea foods can be obtained at a
very reasonable price in the national
capitol. In fact, oysters are pur
chased by the bushel in Washington
and daily residents are seen driving
to the wharfs where fresh bivalves,
just taken from their bed in the fa
mous bay may be procured at 25 cents
a bushel.
We of the far west can hardly ap
preciate this as oysters, at the best
with us are an expensive luxury and
the article we purchase here has little
of the flavor of the fresh, delicious
oysters of the coast.
Dwelling houses in Washington can
be procured at fairly reasonable rates.
A seven room flat or cottage in a
nice part of the city rents for from
120 to $30 a month and as the winters
are not severe though often so chilly
as to require heat for same months,
the cost of a home to live in is not
exhorbitant. Board in some one of
the many boarding houses will cost
from $25 to$30 per month, room in
cluded, and where two room together
this cut down iu a liberal proportion.
Government clerks who are employ
ed at Washington seldom save any
money. "Easy comes, easy goes," is
an old saw and it is true in this case.
Uncle Sam is a good paymaster and
pays his help in fresh, crisp green
backs, and always on time. The work
of a government clerk is far from ar
duous and he has considerable of time
to himself. This is one reason for the
formation of the habit of extravagance
which results in making true the as
sertion made in the fit*st_ part of this
article, "it cost all one can earn."
Idleness is the mother of mischief,
says the sage and It is also a strong
auxiliary to the wanton expenditure
of money. For these reasons few
clerks employed at Washington ever
save much, if any, of their salary and
when the ax falls and they find" that
their "Influence", meaning the politi
cal powers which hold them In their
position can no longer stand the pres
sure but must "let go", then there is
certain to be a young man or young
woman who will write a letter home
not entirely filled with discussions up
on the weather or the beauties of
Washington. There are of course, ex
ceptions to the rule and some of the
employees have found it possible to
save a portion of their salary and still
enjoy the sights and the glamor of
magnlficiant distances. In justice to
Washington it must be said that under
ordinary circumstances it is no more
expensive as a place to live than other
large cities if the same economy is
practiced but "if" assumes a consider
able magnitude and dignity in this
case.
Will Women Vote?
Shall women go into politics? may
be an interesting question, but it is
for debating clubs, not for the arena
of practical question.
Fifty years ago the debating clubs
discussed, "Shall women go into busi
ness?" It was decided that they
should not, the women themselves be
ing most eager advocates of the neg
ative. Yet here the women are,
swarming into business, and think
ing out new lines of work. And they
are protesting the while that they
much prefer the "sphere of the home."
May this not be the result in politics,
too? How long will it be before thje
business woman demands the fran
chise? And when she is numerous
and determined, how is mere man to
stand out against her?
The world moves. We may not like
it usually we don't, but move it will,
and the only certain thing about Its
movements is that what was yester
day, and what is today, will not be
tomorrow.
—Saturday Evening Post.
Too Weak for Him.
Captain Ryan, the new British naval
attache, said at a dinner in Washing
ton: "The strength of the heads of
some of our old-school farmers quite
incredible. "At a harvest supper, a
feast similar in its way to your
Thanksgiving dinners, there was an
old farmer who drank a good deal
of champagne. The moment his glass
was filled he would toss it off, and
then, of course it would be filled again.
"But the old fellow grew quieter and
quieter the more champagne he drank.
A frown settled on his forehead. His
eyes flashed angrily under his heavy
gray brows.
"Finally, when his glass had been
refilled for the twelfth or thirteenth
time, he shook his head and said:
"James, when are you going to
put the whiskey on the table? These
minerals are getting tedious."
Father—Now. Sir William, I want
Jack to go into business—his mother
wants him to read for the bar. Jack's
undecided. What do you advise? Sir
William Grubbe (overstout, florid and
fussy)—Ton go into business, my boy.
See what Its thade of me! Jack (em
phatically)—Oh, 8lr William. I've
quite decided to take mater's advice.—

THE EVENING TINES, GRAND FORKS, N. D.
City Engnleer Carroll will during the
next few weeks be busy with the work
of preparing the plats of a new addi
tion to the city, which will be pro
moted by Clifford Dufour during the
next few months. The twenty acres
of property which Mr. Dufour will plat
and place on sale as residence lots is
about as choice a bit of property as
there is in Crookston, convenient of
access, with an excellent view over
looking the river and woods district,
and he will undoubtedly have a large
demand for the lots. Some hundred
lots will be included in the new addi
tion and that section of the city should
boom considerably as a result of the
outlet for new homes and dwellings.
The name of the new addition has
not been decided upon but will proba
bly be determlried by a popular con
test in which prizes will be offered for
the most appropriate name. Mr. Du
four will leave the newspaper business
to manage his property interests per
sonally and will have offices in the
down town district.

Cut Sheriff's BIIL
The county commissioners in ses
siou, on the advice of County Attor
ney .Maybury reduced the bill of Sher
iff Gonyea for the board of prisoners
during the past while back. Mr. May
bury is of the opinion that the special
I law under which" it is claimed the
sheriff of this county holds office ap
plies also to the board bills which are
to be charged for the maintenance of
I prisoners in the county jail here. He
believes that the law provides that the
board shall be entitled to twenty-five
per cent of the receipts of the sheriff's
office and that the board bill is in
cluded in the arrangement.
