On exh’bition in the window of the Tvasca Mercantile company 1s a silver loving cup donated by the Dupont Powder company to be shot for dur- | ing the season of rgo5 by the mem- | gers of the Gun club. It certainly isa beauty and several of the members Of the club have cast longing eyes at it in the last tew days | and have been caling up their fuses in |anucipation of the first shoot. The pecular thing about this dona- ; tion 1s the absence proverbial “string.” it is simply donated to be shot for in any manner by reach of this fact. So far there have been two shaots for the trophy and E. A. Kremer was high in both and has a nice lead, | which he is free to declare he will hold. .

MANY SUFFERERS FROM HIGH WATER Word was. received by Governor Jobnson that farmers in some of the counties were suffering from the effects of high water which has been prevalent for the past week. A fetter was received yesterday from A. L. Hamilton to the effect that in Aitkin county to his knowledge there were J50 farmers destitute and in need of foud. The letter is writ- ten trom Aitkin and reads: “The fioods we have been having here have played havoe with the people living around the Mississippi river. Many of them have lost every- thing they had, and are already ap- proaching a state of destitution. The commission from the fifth dis- trict of the county tells. me that many of them will have to be helped. He estimates that there are 150 farm who have been affected by the high water. We can’t allow these "| people to suffer for the want of some- }| Sounty wilt have to take steps~ helps very mauy cases. The sugges- tion has been made the county cum- missioners flnd work for thei on the roads, at least for those who are able Lo work, “These people need relief as badly as did the Hinckley fire sufferers, or nearly so, and the purpose of the situation to the end that some meas- ureof relief might be found.” Seat! Itis estimated that there is plenty of work to be done on the county roads but the funds for road work have already been exhausted, The letter asks permission to be allowed todivert some of the money in the poor fund forroad work so that those who haye been unfortunate may be given work there. {tis iikely that Governor Johnson will make an investigation of the conditions among the sufferers from high waters all along the line. In case it is found to be necessary some definite action wiil be taken inthe matter. Lists may be opened if it is thaught necessary to secure sub- scriptions from the state at large, Education and Crimo. “There is not a public abuse on the whole eastern coast which does not receive the enthusiastic approval of some Harvard graduate. “Fifty years ago the schools were supposed to free us from crimes and unhappiness, but we do not indulge in those sanguine hopes today. Though education frees us from the more brutal forms of crime, it is true that educatian itself has put even meaner fsrms of crime in our way. The intellect is a servant of our. passiors and sometimes educa- tion only makes tke person more adroit _in carrying out these impulses.”’ So s: the world-famous pay- wlogist, Prof. William James of vard university. When has a truer frard than this been spoken? It is the frankly-ex- pressed opinion of a keen student who believes in education and scholarship. Itis the conclusion of aman who represents in the fullest se the educated meu and women of the country. Education — school education — is essential. Social relations cannot be understood and properly adjusted without it. Ignorance is a breeder War and must always be at war long as crime exists. But know- Jedge alone will not: save society. There is something else more fun- It is thoughi that the »thing else than progress. ; damental than education. It is morality. It is character, Educa- tion without sound moral character 1S a much greater menance than ignorance with sound moral charact- er, The educated lawbreaker is} capable of doing almost infinitely | more:harm than the ignorant crimin- | al. The educated man who constanly transgressess the moral law and ig- nores the ethics of his relations to his neighbor :and the state is the enemy society has. His power to do harm is multiplied by his knowledge. Itis not education alone, but edue cation coupled with morality that will root out crime. And morality is more elemental than education.— St. Paul News. New Towns in North Dakota. The extensive railroad building now being done in North Dakota has brought tributary to railroad facil- ities an additional vast area of the rich agricultural sections of northern and western North Dakota. The Great Nerthern Railway is building a number of new extensions from its main line northward notably that of the Searles extension of the Edmore line The Thorne extension running north from York, the Maxbass ex-| tension running northwestward from | Towner, and a further extension of the Westhope line to Antler, The building of these new lines has brought into being a number of new towns which are fully described in a pampblet recently issued by the Great Northern Railway. By applica- tion to Mr Ff. I. Whitney, Passenger Traffic Manager, St. Paul, Minn., a copy of these pamphlets “New Ex- tensions in North Dakota” or “New Towns in North Dakota” will be mailed to any address.
