The Northwest Insurance, a month ly journal published in St. Paul, de voted to the insurance luterests of Minnesota and the northwest, says of an editorial which recently appeared in these columns: "The Grand Forks, N. D.. Times is o:ie of the few newspapers of the northwest which is taking a reason able view of the present fire insurance situation. This paper argues edito rially against the popular clamor of those who assort rates are too high and to prove their point take the gross premiums as a basic figure for net profit. The paper says further, "How is It that when a fire destroys property valued at a thousand dollars on which the annual premium is ten dollars, that the insured can get the value of the property destroyed? Sim ply because ninety-nine other men car rying like policies have each contrib uted a similar amount to reimburse the loss. The losses in the Sun Francisco disaster could never have been paid had It not been for the premiums paid by policy holders in other portions of the country."' II6ERMAN CAMPAIGNER Hp Spent Some Time In Stutsman anf Other German Centers and Feels Confident. Fargo Forum: Jacob Hauck of Omaha, Neb., who campaigned in North Dakota during the presidential campaign in 1900 and 1904 for the re publican party, is again campaigning in this state in the interest of the re publican state ticket. Mr. Hauck is one of the foremost German writers in the country and is well known throughout the state. He is a fluent speaker and Monday he arrived in Fargo after conducting a speaking through Stutsman county and other counties where there is a big German population. In speaking of the conditions as he found them among the German voters Mr. Hauck said that he was well pleased with the situation. "The vot ers, I find, who were inclined to be on the fence by reason of the German literature that had been sent to them by the Pisk supporters, have been converted after I gave them the in side facts concerning Judge Knauf. Many who were inclined to support Judge Fisk h?ve changed over and I am well satisfied that the German vote will go strong for Judge Knauf and the entire republican ticket. All of the meetings that I held were large and unlimited enthusiasm was dis played at each of the meetings." TWO MORE BANKS. One Recently Started at Cheyenne and Another at Ray.

A ham, spiced and baked and. wine poured over It is one of the things that one frequently reads about, es pecially in stories where the necessity of describing a meal appears, but very few people really do have, in all their life, a baked ham, but frizzled ham is different. You take the gentlest, most deli cate and tender slice of ham you can obtain, just a shade thicker than a slice of paper, and you put it on a broiler and let it curl and sizzle and get pink with too :uuch heat for com fort, and you cook It thoroughly, for there is nothing worse than under* done pork, and then you serve it with some creamily scrambled eggs, if you desire, and golden buttered toast and delicious coffee.

In spite of the cold weather, farm ers are still busily engaged in plow ing throughout the state, according to the reports which are coming In. As a result of the freezing temperature of the past few days the ground In some places is beginning to harden, but wherever It is protected by a little stubbile It is still soft and in condition for plowing. The farmers are making the most of this state of affairs and knowing that they will not get a very bit? price for their grain and that cars are scarce they are devoting most of their attention to plowing and are mak ing little attempt to ship wheat. As a result businesses moving rather slowly and collections are not as good as they miirht be. Local bankers and others expect things to liven up when the cold weather sets In in earnest as then the farmers will be obliged to cease farming and will devote more attention to disposing of their wheat.

According to the sub-contractor, there will be 35 cars of material. The company is plan ning on taking all the men it ca». muster with It to Montana as a great shortage of labor Is known to exist in the west. The company employed 1.000 men on the range job and an even greater number will now b| re quired. With the woods work just opening ip and the exodus of men from the west, it Is going to be a task to keep enough men at work to com plete the contract In the stipulated time. East Side News LOGS WERE NOT DELIVERED Details of the Suit by Grand Forks Lumber Company for $144£KUM). One or the most important suits to be commenced for years, and cover ing litigation that involves the in I crease In value of pine timber in recent years, has been instituted in the dlB trlct court at Sfillwater. It was com I nteaced by the Grand Forks Lumber Co., of which Robert H. McCoy is the principal man, against the McClure Logging Co., practically mnde up of Samuel McClure and James Mulvey of Stillwater and William J. O'Brien of St. Paul, all prominent In a number of timber and other business affairs, Damages for a breach of contract and for items involving kindred sub jects are demanded In the sum of $144.805.(50 in addition to Interest on several small amounts. Robert H. McCoy was a mill and lumber man on the St. Croix for years and operated a sawmill at Lakeland, It is alleged in the complaint that on March 30, IS90, he made a contract with the McClure Logging Co. to pur chase a large quantity of timber on lands in the northern part of the state that were described in the agreement. The logs were to be cut, banked, driven and delivered at Crookston in amounts not less than 9,000,000 feet, nor more than 12,000,000 feet on the 1st of Au gust each year until all the timber was cut and delivered. The price was $8.50 per thousand. Since then the prices of logs have greatly advanced. It Is alleged that the contract was carried out until March 30th of last year when there were 9.17S,280 feet of logs on hand, which was not de livered in accordance with the con tract, but were sold to the C. A. Smith Timber company. It is also alleged that there were 4,500,000, or more, standing timber that was also sold to the Smith company. The damage is alleged to have resulted. The total amount In cludes sums of money as the share of the McClure Logging company in driv ing logs. The case will be ready for trial in all probability at the Novem ber term of the district court A HEART BREAKING CAMPAIGN Campaign Committees Complain of Apathy on Part of Voters All OTer the State. To the state campaign committees this has been a heart breaking cam paign. It is a campaign without in terest. In the eyes of the old ma chine crowd, those in charge at the republican headquarters. are "dubs" at the business, and covert knocks are their portion, but if they were on deck things would be no better. They, like their rivals, are simply up against a condition that the most seasoned and strategic would find it hard to overcome. All they can do is to stiffen the weak-kneed, keep up the party faith, and when the latter word is used it covers all. "Wait" represents the situation at both head quarters. From the republican headquarters tons of literature add letters have been sent to the voters, while all tlie spellbinders available have been sent over the state to preach the gospel ot republicanism. Nothing in this res pect has been overlooked. At the democratic headquarters, similar ac tivity has prevailed. Man, both say, could not do more. With previous state campaign crowds, money has been the lubricant that has kept the machinery running smoothly and the voters interested, but there is no such condition of pros perity this time. No republican state committee ever tackled a state game with as little money as the present one has. Added to this, every mile of railroad transportation used has had to be paid for. and it is a pretty stiff item in itself. All the present com mittee has had is the money supplied by its own candidates and some few personal contributions. For the de ficit it has had to depend upon the voters of the party.—St. Paul- Dis patch. ONE GRAFTER. Dr. C. G. Mugg Makes a Few Com ments on Optical Conditions. The Evening Times, Grand Porks, N. D. I notice from a late article in the Times that the optical boar dis going after grafters. As near as I can find out there is only one grafter in N. D. The M. D. is exempt from any special training or examination for fitting glasses. If he choose he can say "Spe cial attention to the eye, ear, nose and throat," and people think he is a spe cialist. This man is not a grafter, he is a doctor. A jeweler can take half a dozen optical courses by mall hang certificates' on the wall and talk about being a graduate of the best schools in the world. No mistakes—The peo ple rush in and pay their money for nothing. This man is not a grafter. A person calls ih an eye, ear, nose and throat man who looks wise and says, "you came just in time, a few days more and it would have been too late." He works a month over the case, gets 200 plunkB and all the patient has got is a pair of glasses. This man Is not a grafter, of course not. Another man puts 4 years of his life learning a profession (fitting glasses). After commencing his practice he is careful not to recommend a glass that is not beneficial. His utmost care '.s to "Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesars." Is this man a grafter? Certainly, he is the only grafter in N. D. Send me a stamp and I will send you his name. Very truly, C. G. MIJGG. Mailing Reports. Secretary Macfadden of Fargo, is mailing 600 copies of the annual pro ceedings of the North Dakota State Bankers' association to bankers throughout the state. The pamphlets contain accounts of the meeting held in Fargo In July. Accompanying them are letters from the membership com mittee of the association and the com mittee on the care and cleaning of time locks which aim to show the many advantages to be derived from belonging to the association. It is believed that the sending out of these pamphlets and letters will In terest many bankers who do not now belong to the association and will lead to a large increase in the mem bership of the body.
