THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER. (Established 1873) Seer. YOUNG LADY, THIS TELLS The month of brides having passed and the peal of wedding bells having trailed off into a mere tinkle of distant melody, probably those among us of the romantic sex, who are still single, would like to know what the chances are for white tulle and orange blossoms. Dear Miss, we can tell you right away whether or not you will be married before autumn brings the melancholy days to waiting maidens. Go out into the garden, Maudie, and find a pea pod, having nine peas in it; nine, mystic number; no more, no less; hunt ’till you find that pod with nine peas. contributions from royalty and nobility of France, he purchased munitions and supplies for the army which fought the American revolution, The protection afforded the cream producer and the cream buyer through North Dakota’s new testing act should bring greater prosperity for everyone who is interested in dairying’ which fast is becoming one of the state’s most important in- dustries. It is particularly essential that protec- tion be afforded butter-manufacturers within the state, in order that North Dakota may enjoy the profit from the labor which goes into the finished product, as well as that which results from the purchase of the raw material. State Dairy Com- missioner Osterhaus comes from Wisconsin, Amer- ica’s greatest dairy state. He seems to be admin- istering this new act in a spirit of fariness to all concerned, and he should be ‘encouraged. Independent North Dakota newspapers are offering to sell their space at advertising rates to branches of the state administration which feel the need of honest publicity. ’Tis a good idea and a subject that should receive serious consideration at the annual meeting of the North Dakota Press association to be held in Mandan next month. It’s a poor rule that will not work both ways. The administration has boycotted the independent press of the state. There is no reason why the independent press should not return the favor, insofar as free advertising is concerned. The piper must be paid, but it is always shrewd business to let the other fellow do the Hang this pod over a doorway ; better pick the parlor door, in our opinion. Let the rites be done secretly, and with due solemnity. If a bachelor or widower first goes through that charmed door, cheer up, you will be married before the pea vines wither. If a woman passes through, tough luck; you will sigh in vain for another year. If a married man is the first—go slow, go slow, my dear. This infallible portent, this without-fail peek into the future, is given us by a seer of great repute. Grandmother used this portent at the tender age of fourteen, and she was married before she passed her fifteenth birthday. Maybe your grandmother knew about it, which explains why she had nine children by the time she was thirty. Remember: nine peas in a pod; hang it over a door, and watch the procession. If two unmarried men pass through the door together we don’t know—maybe it means you should try ,Turkey for a change; maybe it. por- tends an early divorce. Better pick a narrow door, we guess. BENJAMIN FRANKLIN As time goes on into generations, the mere name of a historical character may remain per- fectly familiar to all of us, but their acts, their relation to their time and all future time may be- come but little known through the neglected read- ing of their lives. That we of this generation may be reminded of the accomplishments of Benjamin Franklin, and possible be inspired to a reading of his complete life, here is a very partial list of his inventions, social and diplomatic services: Discovered that lightning and electricity were paying, if you are so politically astute that you can get away with it. Why this strange silence on the part of the administration on the subject of drouth relief? Is the number of votes on the Slope too small to be worth while. The man who works for his salary gets it. The man who works for the firm and accepts a salary on the side is a candidate for promotion—and gets it. Surely a nation with sense enough’ to. abolish red nose paint and the means of painting the town red will not long tolerate the reds spawned in Europe. A sophisticated man is one who realizes that the twenty-five billion of public debt will not lessen the contents of the congressional pork barrel. Anything that Wilson may say to the senate will have less effect than the clamor of business men who are eager to get into Heinie’s pocket- book. Dividing the world’s wealth equally among all citizens would prevent great fortunes, until a-few ‘BUMPING THE BUMPS sharp boys could get together and prepare sucker lists. This apparently is not Mr. Lemke’s week. in supreme court. | WITH THE EDITORS | TOWNLEY’S CONVICTION The West continues to maintain its honorable record for punishing - sedition, a record which one and the same. Discovered the conductivity of electricity— that electricity could be transmitted by wires of certain metals. Discovered the use of copper in the science of electricity. Invented the double lense spectacle for near and for vision. Invented the lightning rod. Invented a form of heating stove on which he refused a patent, saying that he preferred to give its benefits to society. Founded the first free circulating library in America. The father of our present postoffice system. The father of our metropolitan police system. Advocated systematic street lighting as a pre- vention of crime in cities, and invented one of the first forms of street lamps. The original save-an-hour-of-daylight man. Wrote a. work on the prevention of smoky chimneys that is standard today. Was the first man to advocate fasting, keeping out of crowds and in the open air as a treatment for colds. Conceived and was one of the’founders of the University of Pennsylvania. Was the largest newspaper and periodical pub- lisher of his time. Organized one of the first city fire depart- ments and gave much thought and effort to the prevention of fires and the improvement of fire- fighting apparatus. Organized the first fire insurance company in Philadelphia—previous to 1752 there was not an insured building in the city. Saw the wealth in what is now the Lake Su- perior copper region, and shrewdly had the upper peninsula of Michigan included in the treaty of peace with the British. As minister to France in 1776 he became known -as “The Good Richard;” he organized the trans- porting facilities that brought raw cotton, flax and tobacco from America and which were sold in stands in strange contrast to the happy go lucky record of the east. A.C. Townley, president of the Nonpartisan league, and Joseph Gilbert, its chief organizer, have been convicted of conspiracy to teach sedition. Sentence has been deferred until Sept. 15, so as to permit the preparation of court records on a motion for a new trial, bat the court of first instance has done its duty. This court sat in Jackson, Minn., a state which has a fine record for its refusal to tolerate: men who masked their pro-Germanism under pretended svlicitude for farmers, laborers, or the cause of peace. In facf, the whole west has this honorable dis- tinction. The wall of sham which seditionaries erect before their plain intent is the same in the west as in the east, but with what different results|, do they erect it! The western jury is made up of men who see straight through the pretenses end excuses into the ugly purpose that lies Leiind. Apparently all that a seditionary arraigned before an eastern court has to do is to plead that his heart is in the right place and that he merely wanted to advance the cause of universal peace. The yorst he usually gets is a disagreement cf the jrry. In the west, as in the east, the indicted seditionary alleges that he is being persecuted because lie is a socialist, or a friend of the farmer, or an opponent of the administration. The only difference is that the western jury looks only at the acts he com- mitted and the words he spoke. It judges them; if it finds them to be seditious, it convicts him. Some uneasy souls have been perturbed lest the un-American organization known as the Non- partisan league should spread from North Dakota through the neighboring states. This Minnesota verdict does not favor such a view, unless the league should materially change its program so as to bring it more in harmony with the American spirit. It comes at a time, too, when the league’s vote is falling toward the vanishizg point in North Dakota itself, and when a large faction in the league is in revolt against Townley. Such move- ments as this have arisen before, but American common sense has always been fatal to them in a jalburone.and-with-the proceeds, together with the few years.—New York. Times,. Scene from the film play, “The Shepherd of the Hills” at the Auditorium ‘tonight and to- morrow night. “THE SHEPHERD OF THE HILLS” The photo-play made from the nov- el of the same name by Harold Bell Wright will be seen in this city to- night and tomorrow night at the Au- ditorium. The picturization of this story has taken a year and more to complete. The author at the head of the Harold Bell Wright Story-Pic- ture Corporation of which Elsbery W. Reynolds. his publisher is president thas worked constantly with a large staff of assistants. The exteriors f mT have been taken in the Ozark moun- tains and the interiors in California. The work has been long and arduous —no expense has been spared, no de- tail overlooked. All of the people en- gaged in this great work have had enough thrilling experiences to last them the rest of their natural lives. The actress engaged for.the part of “Sammy Lane” is an expert horse woman. In this particular, Mr. Wright was very exact—there could be no tricks of the camera—no illu- sions. It was not easy to meet the author’s requirements. ‘The young woman finally selected was born in Arizona, practically raised in- the saddle. In the picture, the scenes of “Sammy’s” wild night ride down the mountain-side when she rides through the lightning and rain to save the good old Shepherd from the. lawless Wash Gibbs gang, the spectator is shown, very clearly, why Mr. Wright emphasized the point that this actress must know how to ride horse-Dack. This scene is one of the most thrill- ing ever seen upon the screen. TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY WANTED — Competent bookkeeper and stenographer. Apply F. O.

Take $20,000,000 to Put Trane Siberian Railroad Line In Shape. Washington.—It will take $20,000,- 000 to put the Trans-Siberian railroad in proper working condition. Hight nations are now trying to finance the road temporarily, without waiting for formal recognition of the Kolchak gov- ernment at Omsk. Present indications are that recognition must ¢ome before financial aid on this scale can be ex- tended. The interallied railway commission |. at Vladivostok has made strong repre- sentations to each of the eight coun- tries, urging the making available im- mediately of this amount of money in the form of credits, so that the sys- tem from Vladivostok to the Ural mountains may be put in working or der. The United States, Great Britain, France, Italy, Czecho-Slovakia, Ja- pan, China and Russia are the coun- tries represented on the railway commission. Italy, the Czecho-Slo- vak ‘republic, China and Russia are willing to accept their share of the responsibility for the loan, but cannot supply funds or credits, as everything they have they need for their own people. France, too, needs all her re- sources, Japan could furnish both cash and credit if the other allies would per- mit her to assume the entire burden. Great Britain and the United States are each in a position to arrange the necessary credits, but the bankers of these two countries insist upon hav- ing a tangible government back of the loan as a guarantee. The Omsk gov- ernment {s considered stable enough by the bankers to warrant the loan, but until actual recognition {s accord- ed the status and responsibility of the government are in doubt. .

HE DID NOT WORK IN OVER A YEAR (Munson Gains Eighteen Pounds Tak- ing Tanlac—Is Well and Strong Again. “t have gained eighteen pounds since I commenced taking Tanlac, and never felt better in my life than I do now,” said Alek Munson, who, be- fore his health failed, was a valued employe of the Foundation Ship Build- ing Co., and lives at 1134. Michigan Avenue, Portland, Ore, the other day. When I began taking Tanlac,” he continued, “k hadn't been able to hit a ick of work for over a year, and I had been suffering terriidly from stomach trouble for about four years. It seemed to me that I had made ev- ery possible effort to overcome this trouble, but my condition gradually grew worse, and avout a year ago I reached the point where I had to give up my work altogether, Everything I ate disagreed with me, and for two or three hours after meals I would be all ‘bloated up with gas, and would thave the worst cramping pains in the pit of my stomach a man ever had. Then, this gas would often get up in- to my chest and make my heart pal- pitate something awful,, and it would -be almost impossidle for me to get @ good breath. I also suffered from constipation and often had splitting headaches. Iwas very nervous all the time, and never got a good night’s sleep.. These troubles’ just continued to pull me down until I got so weak and run down that when I went to walk my legs would just give right down under me. “The money I had spent. for medi- cines and treatments might just as well have been thrown in the Colum- ‘bia river so far as the good I got from it, but I thought I would keep on try- ing, and that is why I gave Tanlac a trial when it came along. Well, sir, ‘before I had finished my first bottle of Tanlac, I could see that I had struck it right at last, and I was right, too, for Tanlac certainly did just what they said it would do, and I am now a well, ‘strong man again. (My stomach troubles have all disap- peared, and I am never bothered with gas forming, and I don’t have those awful cramping spells any more. I have such a fine appetite that I can hardly get enough to eat, and every- thing I eat agrees with me all right. I have regained all my lost weight and strength, and am now getting ready to go back to work. Now, that is what Tanlac has done for me, and I think that is saying a whole lot for this wonderful medicine.” Tanlac is sold in Bismarck by Jos. Breslow; in Driscoll by N. D. and J.
