GOOD WORK FOR THE STATE.
A meeting of the real estate men of
the state has been called by Commis
sioner of Agriculture Gilbreath to
•Met at Bismarck February 7 and S.
The purpose of the meeting is to
Systemize the work of bringing immi
grants to the state.
For years the real estate men of
the state have been operating along
independent lines. Each has boomed
Mb own particular portion of the state
wherever he could get a listening ear.
They have boomed the state in such
graphic style and with such wonder
fnl
descriptions of ready-to-wear for
tunes that their circulars have been
-largely classed with the productions
•of Baron Munchausen.
In the face of1 the incredulity of his
neighbors here and there over the
country, a man has accepted the state
ments of these real estate agents, and
the results have far more than justi
fied the representations. These peo
ple have become boomers among their
former neighbors, and so the little
leaven has leavened not the whole, but
a remarkable quantity.
Immigration is just what this state
needs. There should not be a single
quarter of land that is not made to
add to the wealth of the state. No
matter how many acres are sown to
wheat, there is always a market for
the product. The market is far too
large to ever be slutted by the prod
ucts of North Dakota.
What is necessary to develope the
state is people. Industrious, progres
sive, enterprising people are needed
who will make the state tlieir perman
ent home and who will convert the
prairie into fields of waving grain.
As the land becomes scarcer, the
price will advance until it reaches
something near the place it should
hold permanently.
The plan of the Bismarck conven
tion is to extend the scheme already
well under way to have all the real
estate dealers seek first of all to get
immigrants, and then when once they
have been been converted to the faith
of North Dakota possibiities, to en
deavor to get them into that part of
the state best suited to the conditions
of the prospective immigrant.
This plan will prevent some of the
troubles heretofore experienced of
getting exactly the character of land
desired in the special locality of the
dealer through whom he has become
Interested.
The people of the state owe much to
the energy and ability of the present
incumbent of the office of commission
er of agriculture and labor, and best
of all, his work is of that lasting char
acter the results of which will be
manifest in the substantial develop
ment of the state in distant years.
Through his untiring energy the
people of other stiles are having a
strong presentation of the wonderful
resources of North Dakota, classified,
comprehensive and covering the en
tire state.

A 1.IVE ISSUE AGAIN.
John Sharp Williams, the Demo
cratic leader in the House of Repre
sentatives, is always a consistent free
trader. In discussing the Philippine
tariff bill in the house the other day
he said that in pursuance of his be
lief—which, we must assume, is the
prevalent belief of the Democratic par
ty, Mr. Williams being its spokesman
—that the protective tariff policy of
the government was a mistaken policy,
he would favor the bill which reduced
duties on Philippine imports on the
theory that "half a loaf was belter
than no loaf." In other words, if he
and his party cannot get complete free
trade they will content themselves for
the time bein:? with partial free trade,
living on in the hope that ultimately
the whole protective system may be
abolished.
This is a very frank avowal of the
Democratic, position, of which the in
dustrial I'nited States of America will
take due notice for it was just such
avowals as these that led the country
astray on a former occasion. The
Evening Times believes that the Ding
ley duties, suitable to conditions that
prevailed at the time of and for some
years after their adoption, should be
adjusted to conditions which prevail
now, and for the reason that condi
tions have changed and that tariff re
adjustment is necessary, we have al
most as little patience with the Re
publican stand-patters as we have
with the Williams free-traders.
A rearrangement of tariff schedules
now, under Republican auspices,
would postpone for at least a decade
any danger of Mr. Williams' theories
being put into practice. At this mo
ment it is simply a question of dif
ference between injustice on the one
hand and threatened destruction on
the other—injustice in that the exist
ing tariff law needs to be modernized
along protection lines, and threatened
destruction in that if this is not done
the time may not be so far away when
Mr. Williams will be in a position to
put an end to the country's prolonged
prosperity by substituting his econ
omic theories.
We would preserve the American
system of protection by revitalizing
it from time to time and avoid the
danger of its being overthrown entire
ly by its industrious enemies.
WHEAT RECIPROCITY.
President Hill is reported to have
recently said in a Chicago interview
that our trade with Canada is $200,
000,000 annually, and that instead of
going after the trade of the Latin
American peoples south of the equa
tor, the trade with Canada should be
developed.
As a nation our trade should be ex
tended into every available market.
The American people are a nation of
hustlers—never satisfied with small
things.
Consequently they have always been
ready to fill any trade demand of the
world. This policy is what has made
possible the enormous enterprises of
the country.
But while seeking new commercial
fields or enlarging old ones, it must
not be forgotten that there are large
sections of the country whose wealth
is in the raw materials they produce.
This is true of the grain growing
northwest, and especially of North
Dakota.
This raw material must find a mar
ket, and wherever one can be opened
through reciprocity, which does not
place a competing product against our
grain, it is to the interests of the
state to have that done.
But Canada is largely a producer of
wheat, and any reciprocity that would
bring it in competition with that of
our own state would be decidedly bad.
When Secretary Shaw attempted to
abrogate the present protection tariff
on wheat and admit Canadian wheat
practically without duty in order to
allow the Minneapolis millers to avoid
the fair price of American grown
wheat, the effect was so disastrous to
the interests of the farmers as to call
for a Rigorous and emphatic protest.
The farmers have not forgotten that
experience. They do not want the
trade relations with Canada increased
by opening the very market that Can
ada would want—that of wheat—to
competition with the Canadian prod
uct.
This view may be a selfish one. but
it is the American tone.'
It Is refreshing 'to note the fre
quency and sever!ty^with which the
"blind plggers" and boot-leggers" are
being brought to justice in various
Sections throughout the state. Even
those opposed from principle to the
prohibition law can have no sympathy
for
that class
•v
f'j.
of
human harpies.

Thefe'would appear to

In its issue of the 6th inst., the
Balfour Statesman gives considerable
prominence to the exploitation of the
transcendent virtues of Kodol's dys
pepua cure, gravely assuring us that
"indigestion is easily overcome by its
use." The good brother undoubtedly
knows whereof he speaks, but from a
cursory perusal of the Statesman's
editorial columns of that date it is
quite evident that its editor has not
placed sufficient confidence in Mr. Ko
dol's celebrated medicine to even take
a trial dose.
If there are any "prominent demo
crats" in this city—or elsewhere—who
may be desirous of taking issue with
the Evening Times on matters of pub
lic interest, they must understand that
they will be required to employ the
columns of a recognized reputable
newspaper in which to exploit their
views and contentions, otherwise they
will receive no attention from this
quarter.
As has been confidently predicted
in many quarters thn esteemed Herald,
ever on the ivatch 'or its own finan
cial interests is thus early giving
proof of its willingness to support a
candidate outside of the party to which
it claims to be adherent. The
sophistries container in the Herald's
apology for its !''esent course are
purely characteristic however.
It is scarcely to be believed that the
state drainage convention in this city
last week should bear fruit thus early,
yet it is maintained by a reliable
authority that the present raise in
Great Northern railway stock is
directly attributable to J. J. Hill's op
timistic speech regarding the future
of the Red river valley on thrft occa
sion.
The following excellent creed,
strange as it may appear, is said to
have been promulgited by a Kansas
man:
Live temperately, Jive moderately,
live rationally, live the honest, decent
life, stand for the solden rule and a
square deal and you mav live manv
years to meet and eet those vou love
and those who love you.
The Belleville (Kan.) Telescope has
been made the official count}' paper for
the thirty-fifth consecutive time, and
in making the announcement naively
adds: "We feel grateful to the board
of county commissioners for this ex
pression of confidence." That sounds
like Pembina county "a whole lot."
The esteemed Fargo Forum boldly
declares that "it is not the kickers
who make the world grow and pro
gress." Is this intended as a gratui
tous and studied insult to the North
Dakota insurgents, individually and
collectively?
The acquittal of a Philadelphia of
ficial of the charge of grafting was no
doubt due to a verdict of "guilty, but
not proven."
Three (iatn of Gold.
If you are tempted to reveal
A tale someone to you has told
About another, mak" jt pass
Before you spc-ak tnree gates of gold.
Three narrow gates—arst, "Is it true?"

Give thankful answer, and the next
Is last and narrowest, "Is it kind?"
And if to reach your lips at last

that time his letters ceased. Just

of him she has never learned and heart
broken she took to wearing men's

her for naughty man after that, and
now at the age of 8? she will enlighten
the world on love as she has enjoyed
it, the real psychic variety at that.

The return of the Nelson company
to Grand Forks is due to the energetic
endeavors of the local lodge of K. P.'s,
who were determine! that Mr. Nelson
and no other should be the one to give
the production of Dumon and Pythias
for their benefit, and the advance sale
proves the choice to meet the desires
of the theatre-going public.
The Nelson company, on their sec
ond night, Wednesday, will give the
religious drama, Qvo Vadis, with the
entire scenic and electrical effects car
lied by them two years ago, on which
occasion Mr. Nelson won the hearts of
all his hearers in his rendering of the
part of Petronius.
"Human Hearts."
"Human Hearts" will be presented
that season with an entirely new
scenic equipment. Mr. W. E. Nanke
ville, at great expense, had photo
graphic views for the new scenes tak
en in the hills of Arkansas, in the
locality where the scenes of the play
are laid, so as to h.-ve the production
as true to life as possible. These pho
tographs were turned over to the
scenic artist and the result has been
more satisfactory. Mr. Nankeville also
commissioned the photographer to
pick up anything is the way of prop
erties that might lead color to any of
the scenes. The artist acquired an
anvil and bellows from the village
blacksmith shop, thit were once used
by the. prototype of Tom Logan, the
hero of the play. "Human Hearts," in
all its new scenic splendor, will be
seen at the Metropolitan Thursday
evening.
Juvenile Modesty.
A little boy in one of the city schools
recently tore the seat of his trousers
while at play, and' being of a very
bashful nature, was very nervous
when school called.' Shifting uneasily
in his seat the" little chap raised his
hand and asked, "Teacher, please may
I go home?" and the'teacher, granting
the -request, fearing the boy was ill,
stepped to his desk and asked what
was the trouble. But the boy slid
over the other side of the seat and
said in a beseeching tone, "And please,
teacher, go back to your desk. I want
to back out," and he did, with his little
face crimson/with mortification and
the big tears filling his eyes dispelled
his efforts to keep them back.
One thing certain, that little chap
will become a gentleman as he grows
older and will aways have the same
modesty which actuated him when he
wanted to "back out" of school be
cause of his torn trousers.

"Tell me, gray haired Sexton," I said,
Where in this field are the wicked folks laid
I have journeyed this quiet old grave .yard through,
I have studied the epitaphs old and new,
But upon pillar, obelisk or stone,
I read of no evil that man hath done."
The old Sexton stood by a grave newly made,
His chin on his hand, a hand on his spade,
I knew by the gleam of his eloquent eye,
His heart was instructing his lips to reply.
"Who is to judge when the soul takes its flight,
Who is to judge 'twixt the wrong and the right,
Which of us mortals shall dare to say
Our neighbor was wicked, who died to-day?
In our journey through life, the farther we speed,
The better we learn that Humanity's need
Is Charity's spirit that prompt us to find .?
Bather virtue than vice in the life of our kind,
Therefore good deeds we record on these stones
The evil men do, let it die with their bones.
I have labored as Sexton, this many a year,
But have never buried a bad man here."
PROGRESSING
RAPIDLY
Christian Science Church of tirand
Forks Is Receiving Adherents From
Time to Time—Eight New Members
Received at Communion Last Sun
day.
Grand Forks has the only Christian
Science church building west of the
twin cities. While it has not a large
membership, having some 60 communi
cants, it is a very progressive organ
ization and the services held there
every Sunday are cr an''interesting
anture The church building is one of
the finest in the city, being well fur
nished and well equipped for church
work. Sunday was Communion Sun
day with the congregation and eight
new members were received.
There are very few people who know
of the manner of worship in a'Chris
tian Science church Instead of a pas
tor they have two readers. A quarter
ly is issued by thfe publishing house at
Boston and it namvs the subject for
'each service. One reader reads the
bible references and the otlier refer
ences given to portions of Mrs. Eddy's
book, ."Science and Health." In this
manner the same service is held over
the entire country.

braced up and crawled back into the
darkest, farthest corner of our little
