PUBLISHERS AND PROPRIETORS.
Americans are leaders in many
things so far as progressiveness is
concerned and the leadership in the
publication of newspapers is especial
ly marked. No wonder that Canada
is compelled to protect itself against
American energy.
MEMORIAL DAY SPORTS.
A plan has been set on foot to de
velop a sentiment throughout the na
tion against the use of Memorial day
for any purpose other than paying
tribute to the memory of the dead
soldiers and sailors, and doing honor
to those who are living. Harsh critics
of the custom of interspersing the
exercises of the day with different
amusements call them desecrations of
the day. That term is not appropri
ate, for these things are the develop
ment of an earnest effort on the part
of the public to assist in making the
tributal day to the nation's heroes so
much the more interesting. That
these features have been over-devel
oped is the result of our ambition to
outdo ourselves with each year, so
that each succeeding event is greater
than its predecessor.
It would be well, however, in this
particular to return to the original
purpose for which Memorial day was
set apart. It was the purpose of that
gallant soldier and enthusiastic pa
triot, General Logan, who originated
the day, to pay loving tribute to the
soldier dead. Upon the mounds which
marked their last resting place were
to be laid the flag for which they
died and the wreath of flowers—
sweetest token of a nation's love and
a people's gratitude.
It is significant that this tribute
to the dead has been adopted by near
ly every fraternal order in the land
and is one of the almost universal
customs of the relatives of those who
have passed the tidewater of eternity.
It would be more in keeping with its
sacred purpose, therefore, if the things
which are calculated to produce the
opposite sentiments from those for
which it was dedicated, were elimin
ated. Let it he a day devoted to the
perpetuation of the principles for
which men and women lived and died.
THE PEACE THAT COSTS.
General Kuroki is a peace-maker of
the Grant class, and not of the Carne
gie-Stead class. The difference be
tween the two classes is well covered
by President Roosevelt's phrase about
peace with righteousness. Perhaps,
since righteousness is largely a fig
ure of speech in human affairs, it
would be still more definite to say,
peace with right, or peace with jus
tice, or peace with freedom from un
warrantable Interference. In the case
of our civil war it was peace with
tsound policy, that iB to say, that a
country, evidently fit to remain unit
ed, should not be split into two coun­

SAVISO THE DAY.
The newspapers published near the
Canadian border are much interested
in the recent change in the postal
regulations between the United States
and Canada. Under the postal treaty
formerly in existence between the two
nations, American newspapers enjoy
ed the same advantages in the way
of cheap mail transmission in Canada
as they do in the United States.
But the Canadian government re
cognized the fact that the progres
siveness and enterprise of the peri
odicals south of the division line, com
pared with these qualities as possess
ed by those north of the line, were
such that in an otherwise equal field
the Canadian periodicals were certain
to be distanced. Viewed from the
Canadian standpoint, the position of
the government was justified in add
ing an extra postal charge for hand
ling the publications from across the
border, as a protection to its home
enterprises.
While it works a' handicap on the
papers in this state published in the
towns near the border, the very action
of the government in making the dis
crimination on the grounds it did, in
dicates that the progressive people in
Canada, especially those who have
gone there from the states, would be
willing to pay the additional price
made necessary by the added postage,
in order to secure the papers pub
lished south of the line.

tries. Whatever it is that is thus
linked with peace as its foundation
and motive, it is something sound,
something advantageous in the long
run to a large majority of those di
rectly and indirectly concerned, and
something that has on it the hall
mark of justice in contrast with peace
on any terms. In other words, it is
something really worth while when
measured in terms of war—it being
thus conceded that war is the final
and the most dreadful appeal that
man can take for the rectification of
human affairs. It is peace on the
merits of the question that such men
as Grant and Kuroki stand for and
it is peace at any price that Carnegie
and Stead stand for, so far as their
fluent utterances can be made to ap
ply as a practical rule of society.
The affairs of this world are not
bounded by New York city, or Pitts
burg, or even Sklbo castle. The pres
ence among us of General Kuroki is
significant evidence of the broad
sweep of human interests of how the
varied races of men are from time
to time brought face to face with
those mighty tides of injustice and
self-conceit which are outside the do
main of reason and amenable only to
physical force. What would Carne
gie and Stead do in such a case with
their peace at any price? What would
they have done with Alexieff, and
Lessar, and Pavloff, as these men and
their associates at St. Petersburg ar
rogantly and confidently planned the
acquisition of northeast China and
Korea, and the ultimate control of
Japan? Those Russian gentlemen
would have been delighted to find in
Japan a desire for peace at any price
—nothing would have served their
own purposes better, or gone further
to lighten their task. They would
have chuckled with glee as they look
ed toward the forests of the Yalu,
the mines of Manchuria, and the sea
gates of Peking. All for the asking,
they would have said to one another
—or, to state it in the Carnegie-Stead
formula, all for peace at any price.
The dream of the czar about plant
ing civilization and Christianity in the
far east is not a dream, they would
have said, but a work as good as done,
so soon as we can get our armies
through Siberia and our ships into the
seas of Japan and China and with
that populous far east in her hand
Russia would have dominated Europe,
and Russian civilization with all its
ignorance and incapacity, would have
been the crest of the highest wave in
current history.
The actual course of far eastern
history has produced a different re
sult. The people and government of
Japan had no idea—no faint conjec
ture—of peace at any price. Their
single determination, from the Mikado
down to the most obscure rice-grow
er, was to defend and protect their
own and Kuroki, Nogi, Oku, Nodzu,
Oyama, Togo, and their devoted com
rades on the land and on the sea,
made that determination good. Has
peace thereby been lost? Oh, no
peace for the far east has been won
and made secure.
General Kuroki understands all
this, as all modern soldiers do. They
all know that they are merely the
agents of a supreme conviction of ne
cessity, just as are the magistrates,
and the prison keepers, and all the
other instruments made use of by so
ciety for its security and protection.
COUNTY SEAT H6KI
(Continued from Page 1.)
the Gray-Olson libel case brought
•here from McLean county. The case
is of a criminal nature and will be
followed with considerable interest.
Gov. Burke listened yesterday to
arguments pertaining to the location
of the county seat of Bowman,
Another New County
to be organized in the southwestern
part of the state. Whether the county
seat of the new county shall be At
kinson, which is Burke by another
name, or at Hamilton, which is Twin
Buttes by another name, wa6 the main
question argued. A dozen partisans
from each place were present to fol
low the proceedings. After the ar
guments, Attorney Purcell, Wahpe
ton, representing Atkinson, asked for
time to. prepare and the hearing was.
postponed to June 10. Attorney John
S. Watson, of Fargo, appeared for
Hamilton, presenting a petition to
have the county seat located there.

It is signed by 700 persons claimed to

Attacked the Atkinson Petition
He said over a hundred of the peti
tioners had signed the Hamilton peti
tion and asked to have their names
taken from the first petition. He also
said over a hundred of them were not
residents of the county, but were Mil
waukee road laborers. Purcell said
Watson had
Made Serious Charges
Against the good faith of the Atkin

hearing. Many of the county officers

II FEW OPINIONS
What Minneapolis People Have
to Say Concerning This
Material.
Opinion of Minneapolis people re
garding creosote wood block pave
ment.
"I believe creosote block pavement
such as we have on Tenth street, not
only the best in Minneapolis but the
best to be had at any cost."
—C. H. Pettit.
"The tenant on my property on
Tenth street. Hotel Summers, says
the pavement put in six years ago is
as good today. That being the case,
creosote block makes a cheaper pave
ment even at its present high cost.'
—A. P. Lampman,
New Jersey.
"In common with other good things
in this world, creosote block pave
ments come rather high, but being
good I am glad it is there."
—C. P. Martin,
Washburn-Crosby Co.
"I never saw a pavement embrace
so many good qualities as creosote
block. It is most satisfactory and has
improved Third avenue south a hun
dred per cent. If I had all to say no
other pavement would be laid in this
city. Asphalt, brick and rotten c^clar
are all back numbers and ridiculously
outclassed by this improved pave
ment. I should insist upon it being
laid on any street on which I have
property or influence."
—H. N. Mauerer.
"Creosote block pavement on a creo
sote base is all right."
—John T. Barnum,
Trunk Mnfg.
"It is a very good pavement."
—Clinton Morrison.
"When properly done at every point
of the process creosote wood block
pavement is as near a perfect pave
ment as anything we know of."
—Andrew Rlnker,
City Engineer.
"Creosote wool block pavement may
cost a little more than asphalt but it
is much better. It can stand the heavy
wear that asphalt can not. If Uni
versity avenue between Minneapolis
and St. Paul were paved instead of
left in its present condition, business
traffic between the cities would be
more than double."
—Fred Keyes,
btxhwo tubs, cnum
Architect.
"I believe that creosote wood block
is a far better pavement than asphalt
as it is more durable and less slip
pery, contending in elasticity that the
asphalt does not Creosote is much
better for horses as it is not near so
hard on their feet"
—R. F. Jones,
Secy. Driving Club.

(Continued from page 1.)
man. Mr. Lynch has done considera
ble investigating. In Minneapolis he
says that creosote block laid six years
ago are how in the finest condition.
He says that the small difference in
price between creosote and other
pavements would be a good invest
ment. In Duluth Mr. Lynch found
creosote blocks that had been in use
ten years, laid on boards. Two years
ago the city engineer of Duluth had
occasion to replace the planks, and
he found that the blocks showed very
little wear.
M. W. Day favors creosote pavement
on a concrete base. He has been in
vestigating the subject considerably.
Mayor Duis is in favor of Blome
paving, as his report published in this
evening's paper will show.
Aldermen Knudson, Sanness, Kent,
Ellstad, Davidson and Wilder are not
as yet in position to state just what
kind of paving they favor. They are
going to continue their investigations
for several days, and will then be in
better position to give out their
views.
Alderman Joy is in favor of a creo
sote block paving. He is of the opin
ion that if the block is decided upon,
the tax payers will be better satisfied
than if any other kind of paving was
used.
Direct Legislative League.
A meeting will be held at Fargo next
Tuesday at the Hotel Waldorf at Far
go for tiie purpose of organizing a
eague to develop sentiment throughout
the state in flavor of the Ueland con
stitutional amendment John M. An

the Sixth district, will attend.

The Laws Banquet.
Last night the junior law class
gave the farewell feast to the seniors,
at the Hotel Northern. The entire
affair was a splendid success, and one
that will be remembered by those who
participated. J. M. Anderson acted
as toastmaster. The toasts were
responded to as follows: Address by
T. H. Burke, president of the junior
class. Response by president Brauer
of the senior class.
"The seniors, God bless them," by
T. F. Clifford.
"The juniors, God help 'em," by
Mr. Coventry.
"The college professor as a lriw
maker," by Dean Bruce.
"The college student as a law
breaker," by T. H. Thompson, and
lastly the Benediction by N. O. Dolve.
The toasts were all well seasoned
with wit, wisdom, and eloquence. The
talk given by Dean Bruce was easily
the best of the evening. He showed
how the college was being looked
upon as a patent force In law-making.
"Indirectly he is a wielder of public
opinion," said the speaker, because
he influences the minds of the young
men who become the leaders of» so
ciety.' He urged the students not ttt
forsake their ideals for, after all it
is the idealist who does things. He
showed also the part that the lawyer
plays in the government of the coun
try. "We may have our legislative
bodies, but after all it is the nine
judges, who sit on the bench at Wash
ington, that enunciate, and interpret
the laws of the country."
It is from the fact that such men
as Dean Bruce are engaged in school
work that make college life worth the
cost. His heart ever beats for the
welfare of his students and his coun
try.
Next Wednesday afternoon, in the
parlors of the Presbyterian church,
