The merchants along all lines are doing a big business and at the .same time are as a general thing ask ing more for their goods than was the case this time last year. This latter Is due to the generally existing market conditions. "Our business Is 25 per cent ahead of what It was this time last year," toaid C. O. Smith of the North Dakota Harness Co., "and every month shows a decided gain. Yet the leather market Is considerably higher and Ave are obliged to ask more for our goods." E. A. Fitzgerald, manager of the Erdel Coffee Co., stated their business was increasing right along and E. H. Orr, of the now wholesale paper house of Greenwood & Orr expressed himself l« the same way. The great growth in business of the Fargo Arms seems to be largely due to the settling up of the western part of the state and the increase in trade is particularly in that portion of the State. Owing to the poor crops of last year trade in the valley has not shown any material gain over a year ago, but Is holding its own. The wholesale grocers of Fargo are doing a better business than this time last year in spite of the fact that there has been a general advance in the price of staple food stuffs. C. O. Follett of the Fargo Mercantile Co. stated that as an estimate he would say his flnn was doing 15 per cent more business than at this time la.st year and attrib uted the fact to the growth of the state and the general prosperity of the coun try. is a vory 2.

The band has been in attendance at the military encampments for the past few years ind enjoys an enviable reputation as first-class musical organization. The land has recently been greatly strengthened and Director Will Wall ace has Informed the state fair man agement that he has recently secured a, large amount of new music. The •Minot band, under the direction of Harry Rudd, formerly of this city, is a, new organization but includes number of musicians who have been greatly praised by the newspapers in ihe northern part of the state Dr. Putnam's band has only been recently organized but the few con certs which have recently been given here by the band has established it high in the opinion of musical critics in this city. The engagement of the three bands indicates clearly that the state fair management proposes to spare no ex pense in making the fair here one of the most memorable In the history of the state. More money will be spent by the fair association on music dur ing the week than has ever been known in the history of fairs in the state, and the action of the fair association is generally approved by citizens who are interested In the success .jf\ihe state fair for Fargo.

Stand by This HouMk The height of impudence-—the very climax, was reached during a conver sation at the Farmers' Supply House and which conversation was termed by »ne party as "business." Think of it a representative of the great and only Thos. Lipton, he of the tea fame and sail-boats, comes to this pioneer pure "od house and objects to it selling ipton tea at 60 cents a pound wheh cents is the price Sir Thomas says shall be charged for the same. When the Farmers* Supply House re plied that their profit was sufficient at 60 cents the pound and did not find business to charge more, the said epresentatlve went so far as to offer to buy all the tea In stock if the sup ply house would sign an agreement not to sell any more of Lipton's tea. Now. is not that the height of Impudence? Anything to compel the consumer to pay 25 per cent more than a fair profit Why is this? It's because the grocers trust demands that the price be kept up and that Lipton sell to no one who will not join the combine to keep tip prices. The Farmers' Supply House made the reply that Sir Thomas did not have money enough to buy the tea of that name in the store at that time and that no such agreement would ever be wlgned. Then there was loud talk on the part Of the representative—Wild remarks were uttered by him—for which now, no doubt, he is sorry. He said that Lipton's tea was for the rich—for peo ple who could afford to pay the 75-cent price. But at the Farmers' Supply House everybody gets the best goods without fear or favor and at the lowest price and no man can say the prices shall be so and so. And this Is not all. For the past five years the Farmers' Supply House has been fighting the battle of low" prices and pure foods. Page after page b( news of vital interest have been pub lished for your Interest alone.

MUSIC HM FAIR WEEK First Regiment, the Mi not and the Putnam Bands Are to Play at the Fair Grounds. .""ffilri Will be music galore at ffie state fair to be held here next month. Three bands have practically been engaged by the fair management 'for the entire week and, In addition/ the amusement company that will show here during the week will have a band on the fair grounds every day during the fair. The terms of the Minot band and the First Regiment band of Lisbon have been accepted and today Secre tary Wilson of the state fair associa tion is sending out contracts to be signed and returned. Dr. Putnam has made a proposition to the state fair management for his band during fait week and the state fair people have accepted. The contract will probably be signed late this afternoon. The Minot band will come here twenty-five strong while the First Regiment band will number thirty musicians. Dr. Putnam's band will be made up of twenty-live musicians. Bumper Yield., ,.fpp W. C.

DIAMOND *10 Down Per Month Many Cases That Have Been Tried in Jmtice Courts May Be Transferred. A rumor is again current on the streets that the justices of th© county will lose a large amount of civil and criminal business hereafter and that the cases will be taken into the county court. About a year ago It was reported that State's Attorney Barnett would take a part of the business Into the county court, but no such action was ever taken. The present rumor has been very persistent recently, although State's Attorney Barnett denies that he has contemplated any such action. Civil cases in which an amount less than $1,000 Is Involved, may be tried In the county court, whereas cases In volving sums not more than $200 may be tried in the justice courts. Those Avho are in favor of taking the business into the county court argue that the county would thereby save the amount of fees now paid justices. The only objection to the propon- 1 removal of cases from the justi courts to the county court Is that i probate business In the county coui Is at present about all that can be taken care of.

THE MILITIA BOYS* All the Com »aniejf and t^e Band to Go .jt. .,*o Wyoming* General Creel says the ten compan ies of the statp guara will be taken to the Wyoming encampment, two of the companies being consolidated with the others so that all the boys will have a chance to go. It has been arranged for the band to accompany the two battalions, but the battery will not be taken. It will be good news to the battery boys, however, to know that they will soon have their new guns, which are In course of preparation for them. They will be up-to-date shoot ing irons of three-inch calibre and the Lisbon push will be fitter than a fiddle when they get togged out. In a short time the new khaki uniforms will be Issued and the militia otherwise put in good shape for the encampment with the regulars at Fort Sheridan. The additional $1,000,000 appropriated for -the militia by the general govern ment will give this state about $24, 000 per annum which will help get the guard in the condition it ought to be, and would be had it not been for the shortage of funds which has hamper ed it since statehood.
