THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER.
Smarting under The Evening Times'
irrefutable arraignment of the proprie
tor of the Herald as a shamelessly
wanton plunderer of the state treas
ury, Editor Winship resorts to the
only defense possible with a counter
charge to the effect that the editor
of this paper is a fellow-looter, and
offers as proof of such charge the
claim that the writer hereof once upon
a time charged the state $270 for a
job of work which cost him but $170
to perform. In the main Mr. Winship is
possibly covrectinhis contention, but
he neglected to give his readers all the
facts in the case, which are as fol
lows: Some time since the writer, at
that time publisher of The Neche
Chronotype, received an unsolicited
order from one of the state depart
ments for a large quantity of tripli
cate receipt books which, owing to the
inadequacy of his printing plant, he
was unable to turn out, and as a re
sult he was impelled to resort to one
of the principal official state printing
concerns—the, at that time, generally
considered great and good Herald—
for the needed assistance and advice.
This he did. with the result that he
was informed that the work in ques
tion, was worth $270 and that had the
job been awarded to that institution
that was the price that would be
charged, but that it would do the same
f«r Mi" for what is known as office
rates, to-wit: $170. Relying upon the
honesty and good faith of the Her
ald, the proposition was accepted.
Acting on the advice so received in
.•••the matter of the price, the work was
billed at $270. which was favorably
passed upon by the state printing ex
pert, and was allowed and paid with
out question.
Such are the real facts in the case,
and if the writer was guilty of looting
the state the offense was committed
in all innocence, and because he placed
Implicit, reliance in the honesty of the
advice given him by the Herald, whose
unwitting dupe he appears to have
been.
However, if Lampman is guilty, as
charged, he is not only willing but
anxious to make a full and complete
restitution, even at this late day, and
as an evidence of his good faith he
makes the following proposition to
the Herald: He (Lampman) will im
mediately refund the entire amount
of his loot—if, indeed, he has, inno
cently or otherwise, been guilty of
looting the state—providing that. Mr.
Winship will pledge himself to at once
dlBgorge the many thousands of dol
lars of which he has pillaged the state
through the medium of the nefarious
printing combine contract.
While Mr. Winship is about it he
might return to the defrauded debi
tors of the old Grand Forks National
bank the amount he induced the comp
troller of the currency to subtract
(ram his .(Winship's) indebtedness to
that concefrn at a time when he was
amply able to pay the bank and its
depositors 100 cents on the dollar In
stead of the 25 per cent compromise.
The discredited Herald editor and
Insurgent leader will not convince an
honest-minded public that he did not
deliberately and designedly enter Into

an agreement to loot the state treas
ury when he appended his name to the
combine printing contract, a fac
simile of which, with George B. Win
ship's name signed thereto, will be
found on this page of The Evening
Times.
Mr. Winship's denial in the Herald
this morning that, he overcharged the
state under that contract is pitifully
ridiculous. That he paid other bid
ders $S(i for each and every
$100 worth of work he did if they
would get out of his way is shown in
the text of the contract.
Surely in the face of such damning
proof he will not deny that.
THE RUST SCARE.
The periodical rust scare which is
sweeping over this state emphasizes
the importance of so diversifying the
agricultural industries that one calam
ity could destroy the entire crop and
practically destroy the income of many
of the farmers. A few years ago the
country was suffering from the dan
gers of flax wilt, and then came the
rust and soon something else will
follow. It is so in all agricultural
countries, and will be so until farming
becomes a far greater science than it
is now even.
The cotton growers of the south
tremble at the very mention of the
boll wevil, while the Delaware peach
growers fear peach blight as a north
erner fears the yellow fever. No plant
in fact which is highly developed is
immune from the attack of some dis
ease.
The trouble is that where there is
a one crop method the development
of the disease particular to fSat crop,
and which is intensified if not en
gendered by weather conditions, means
the loss of all revenue from agricul
tural sources, and consequent ruin
to many of the farmers. That such has
not been the repeated results in the
northwest is because the country is so
fertile and so productive that what
would ruin any other section is merely
a check on our prosperity here.
But as the country becames older
and the population more dense there
will be a far greater need of conserv
ing the fertility of the soil and making
larger profits out of smaller produc
tions. This will call for the develop
ment of the smaller industries as they
are now termed. More attention will
have to be paid to garden products and
the grains will have to be so diversi
fied that if one should fail because of
some disease the others would still
afford a good remuneration.
WANTED—AN' ISSUE.
Some of the leading democrats of
the country who realize that the party
is without an issue in the present con
gressional campaign, are urging Mr.
Bryan to hurry home and in a speech
on something declare the issue of the
party in the fall campaign. The situa
tion is so desperate that John Sharp
Williams has urged the Nebraskan to
declare against government ownership
of the railroads, on the grounds that
the south regards public ownership as
a menace to the silent though none the
less firm belief in states' rights.
The half hearted way the southern
ers are coming to look upon the rea
sonable tariff rates is giving con
siderable alarm to the followers of
that political faith in the section of
the country which has always been re
garded as its by right of birth. Dis
cussing this matter a well informed
writer recently said:
As a matter of fact the gradual
transformation of the south into com
mercial and manufacturing centers is
fast teaching the people of that section
of the country that a protective tariff
is the finest thing in the world for the
encouragement of trade and industry,
and as a consequence many of them
are changing from opponents to
staunch supporters of the republican
policy of protection. They are intelli
gent enough to realize that anything
approaching free trade would result in
widespread disaster to the south, no
less than to the longer established
industrial centers of the north and
east, and they are commencing to ap
preciate the fact that well regulated
tariffs are a benefit instead of a dis
advantage. The effort to arouse a
tariff revision sentiment is, therefore*
falling on deaf ears as far as the south
is concerned, and as the south is the
stronghold of democracy the leaders
of that party are at their wits' end
to solve the problem which confronts
them.
Under such conditions it is little
wonder that the democrats are turn
ing to Mr. Bryan as to a Moses and
imploring him to make an issue upon
which they can go before the country
with something at least for argument,
even though it is worthless as a nation
al issue. It is the same old story of
the democrats. They have not. for
years had an issue which was made
by national conditions or nations de
mands. Every one of them have been
artificial and foreign to the needs and
demands of the country. It is just
is impossible to carry the people away
from matters of impartance in a na
tional campaign as it is to induce a
man to give consideration to a pro
position in which he is not interested.
And even if he should become carried
away for the moment in a political
whirl of enthusiam the results are
never lasting and when the reaction
comes, as it certainly will, he is far
more strenuous as an opponent to his
late fcattse than he .would have been
had he not at. first enlisted in its
support.
it is indeed a gloomy outlook for
the democracy of the country and it
is no wonder that th« leaders are im
ploring Mr. Bryan to come home and
make an issue for them.
A HOOD RECORD.
The. Great. Red River Valley Ex
position is a matter of history. When
the gates closed last night the final
curtain was rung down on one of the
great agricultural gatherings of the
state and one which marked several
^inship, j(0e
mile stones in the development of the
agricultural resources of the north
west.
The attendance was not what the
officers of the association had a right
to expect. But the light attendance
was not due to the inefficiency of the
fair or to the lack of interest of the
people generally throughout the state
In the success of the enterprise. The
first two days were miserable from a
weather point of view, and while the
remainder of the season was every
thing that could be wished for, the
last two days. For these reasons the
attendance was kept down to very near
the local patronage.
In the face of these discourage
ments the management have made the
books of the association balance at
least and there my be a possibility of
having a small profit. Had the
weather have been suitable the at
tendance would have reached three
times what it was, and the fair would
have been the record breaker of the
state.
As an inpetus to blooded stock rais
ing and diversified farming the meet
ing was worth untold dollars to the
people of the state, and especially to
the pe'ople of the Red river valley.
No farmer f»uld see }he exhibits
which were displayed at the fair and
not be convinced that North Dakota is
merely In the infancy of her agricul
tural development. It was proven that
she was first in the breeding of the
leading classes of cattle and horses,
and that the number of vegetabes
which the soil will yield in abun
dance are scores more than was
though only a few year ago.
Grand Forks is not prompted by
sordid motives in building up the great
fair. The officers have given of their
THE EVENING TIMES, GFA.ND FORKS, N. D.
time and ability and energy sufilciently
to entitle them to hundreds of dollars
In remuneration if that were the only'
end in view. But they do not a6k a
shilling. The people of the city and
the county have done heroic work in
the efforts to make it a great success.
All this has been done because they
wanted to see the city and its insti
tutions and enterprises succeed. They
are therefore fully satisfied if they
can realize sufficient out of the exhibi
tion to pay the necessary and cur
rent expenses. For this reason they
are disappointed financially. In fact
had there been several thousand
dollars cleared every dollar of it would
have been used in improving the fair
and giving the people a better one
next year than they had this. This
will be done at any rate, and the peo
ple who are interested in the success
of the exposition will gladly contribute
whatever may be necessary to make
next year the greatest event in exhibi
tions of this kind in the entire north
west.
Speaking of the Minot convention
the Herald says editorially:
if the selection of Senator Cashel
as chairman of the state committee
means that the party intends to em
bark on a campaign such as Mr. Cashel
is capable of organizing and leading
this may turn out to be a very in
teresting year in the politics of the
state. The next few weeks ought to
indicate something of what we are to
expect in this line.
Here we have the morning organ
of the democracy assuming a falter
ing attitude, presumably because

neither of the political parties has
been around to talk business to 36
per-cent George. Might as well make
terms now with the democracy, Mr.
Herald. The republicans are not doing
that kind of business. There will be
"nothing doing" in that line by re
publicans in "the next few weeks"—
or at any other time.
The Herald quotes approvingly an
article intended to show that It might
be a dangerous thing to put in a drain
age system in the Red river valley,
on the ground that "the reclaimed
acres are just as likely to suffer from
drouth as any other." In other words
the Herald would not drain the valley
lest at some future time the water
might be needed for Irrigation. Isn't
this going along distance to show that
the Herald does not love the author of
the drainage bill that passed the sen
ate? Irrigation for the Red river val
ley! Think of It.
The Clock Will Tick It Away.
'MI1 the mujiy tasks the years impose
Come blithe and blissful times.
And strewn through a world of rustic

Are ripples of restful rhymes.
But the Joys we deem the dearest seem
The shortest in their stay.
For we never can greet a day so sweet
But tiie eiock will tick it away.
Away,
The clock will tick it away.
But if the pleasure must liurry so
quickly past.
Then sorrow must do the
Hardy and the said Winship shall

And a word of praise is sure to last
As long as a word of blaine.
And there's never a night so void of

But it wakr-fi to a golden dav.

But the clock will tick it away.
Away,

Stories of the Hour
Repudiated Relationship.
A proud young father telegraphed
the news of his new responsibllty to
his brother in this fashion: "A hand
some boy has come to my house and
claims to be your nephew. We are
doing our best to give him a proper
welcome." The brother, however,
failed to see the point, and replied:
"I have not got a nephew. The'young
mnn is an imposter."
A Quick Retort.
One Sunday morning the priest in
a country parish was returning from
the service when he chanced to see
a little girl whom he had not seen at
church, engaged in the pursuit of
worldy pleasure—playing "Injun" or
hide-and-go-seek, or something of the
sort. At. nn.v rate, she was breaking
the fourth commandment.
In righteous wrath he addressed
her: "Good morning thou daughter
of Satan."
Quick as a flash she jumped up,
made a low courtesy and answered:
"Good morning, father."

Lord Sackville-West was never
much of a lover of America, and what
love he ever had was considerably af
fected by his dismissal in disgrace as
British ambassador in President
Cleveland's administration.
Some time after his return he was
a guest of honor at a dinner which
was also attended by Lady Randolph
Churchill, now Mrs. Cornwallis-West,
who is an American. His lordship did
not. air his personal grievances, but he
lost no opportunity of decrying every
thing American. He was especially
severe upon American table manners.
I "Do you know," he remarked, "that
I have seen Americans eating with
their knives and spilling their soup
on the tablecloth?"
Lady Randolph's eyes had flashed
several times during the dinner, but
this was a little too much. She leaned
quietly toward the distinguished dip
lomat, and remarked, in her cool, sar
castic voice:
"What poor letters of recommenda
tion you must have had, my lord!"

A Novel Capture.
A New York Irishman was visiting
a friend In the Adirondacks and was
taken with the desire to go hunting.
Borrowing a gun from his friend he
set off alone in search of game. Some
time after, his host heard a distant re
port of a gun. A few minutes later
he heard someone shouting. Front a
window he spied in the distance his
friend hot-footing it for home, and
behind him a bear, gaining with every
step. Nearly spent, the pursued
reached the door just in time to cry
out:
"Quick! Mike, quick! Open the door
I'm bringing him home aloive!"
Dodging the Issue.
The 5-year-old son of a minister In
a city in Iowa had always enjoyed
immunity from severe punishment for
mlschievousness. His father was a
devout Christian, In fact owned the
title of a "D. D." and was a good dis
ciplinarian.
On several occasions when the pre
cocious youngster had disobeyed his
father, the latter had taken the lad
into his study and there, after closing
the door, very gravely lectured him
for his misconduct. On each occasion
at the close of the lecture the father
would ask the boy to kneel with him
in a prayer for forgiveness. With a
sad face the youth would kneel while
fervently the father would pray for
him.
One day the little .chap's conduct
was more flagrant than usual and It
shocked the dignified father very
much.
"Young man," he said sternly, "go
and get a switch and take it to my
JS*®v5¥?
study and wait there until I come."
With some apprehension for his
personal safety the lad obeyed. The
parent joined him in the study a few
moments later and began to talk in
pretty plain and: determined language
tO' hl". boy. This youth kept his eye
constantly on the switch which lay
before him on the table.
"Now, sir," the father said finally
and In a sharp voice, "what do you
think ought to do with you?"
The terrified boy glanced up Into his
father's eyes appeallngly and in a
tone that was mild and diplomatic,
replied: "Papa, let's pray."
How Mark Took Her Home.
At a recent meeting of the Smith
Colege club, In New York, Mark
Twain was the chief speaker, and told
the audience of "a memory of my
youth, that haB remained with me all
this time. When I was living in St.
Louis with my mother, ninety-tour
years ago, when I was comparatively
young, a lovely young creature of six
teen ceme to pay us a visit. When
she entered a room, a general sweet
ness was diffused. I was paralyzed.
I wasn't really myself. I was diffident
then. My mother suggested that 1,
being seventeen, show the sweet girl
some attention, but I hadn't the cour
age. Take her to the theatre, said
my mother. So I took her thirteen
blocks down town on foot. I never
had presence of mind in my life until
next day. Then I realized that I
should have gone around twenty-six
blocks.
"Wb were wedged In the middle of
a row of seats as long as this. During
the first act I was comfortable with
the joy of being there with her. But
the second act was not so comfortable.
I had my Sunday boots on. They were
No. 6, and my size was No. 9. Thus
the boots began to get very tight. At
last I had to find relief, and pushed
one off a little. The heavenly change
was so blissful that the other foot
got more urgent. As one cannot
linger on the verge of absolute per
fection, I pushed both off until they
were dangling. Then there was noth
ing in the way of happiness, until the
curtain went down for the last time,
and the people rose and wanted to go
right off. I was trying to get my
boots on. I couldn't have got a hand
in. I couldn't afford to leave- the
boots, and so I took them along—the
boots on one arm and the girl on the
other."
