The song Is sung by Joe Edmonds, who has the part of an eccentric would-be-Scotch detective, and a doz en lively, comely girls aid him in the horus and in the dance. This song is only one of a dozen that receive very night from six to ten encores wherever The Maid and the Mummy is the attraction.

Burke ind Bure JMdreeeed the at Night a1 ing Rally. *PSIftodl-Last Night at the Open Every republican in the state of North Dakota should have had a ting ling sensation about the ears along about 8:30 last night, if there is any truth in the old saying, for there were people talking about them something awful. The "talking" oecnrred fa» the opera-, house and the occasion was the open ing of the democratic campaign. John Burke, democratic candidate for governor, and A. G. Burr of Bot tineau, candidate for congress, were underlined. The Eagles' band stirred things up on the streets early in the evening and later In the operahouse, where a small crowd of the faithful had gath ered. The meeting was called to order by W. A. Scott, who spoke briefly and then Introduced John Burke. Mr. Burke is an able speaker and hr was enthusiastically received. In ad dition to scoring the republican ad ministration of afTairs in North Da kota, the speaker told how he would manage the state if by any chance he should be elected governor. Mr. Burr's address was confined to national politics. He took advantage of the opportunity to pay a glowing tribute to President Roosevelt. Before the close of the meeting a resolution of thanks to Governor John son of Minnesota for the part he had taken in bringing about a reduction ireight rates was adopted.

Fortun ately I insisted upon having Foley's Honey and Tar in the yellow package, and It quickly cured me. My wife has since used Foley's Honey and Tar with the same success." tf. H.

M. Brown, P. A. Schmidt and others are contemplated before the close of the season. In addition to homes con siderable expansion is to be noted in the erection of business buildings. Theo. J. Hauberg, the pioneer mer chant, has in course of construction a brick block which is to cost in the neighborhood Jf $20,000. In this block will be a prominent display of the celebrated Hebron pressed tfHek. There are other material improve ments under consideration which are being stimulated by the local commer cial club which is a very lively organi zation fully alive to the natural ad vantages of the town and country tributary so that Washburn bids fair to become a commercial center of the state some day to be reckoned with in business circles, a place worth culti vating by manufacturers and whole sale merchants in the state. Live Stock and HorsSS To stimulate the business ©i rais ing live stock and horses leading men at Washburn and vicinity have sub scribed* liberally for the maintenance and establishment of the McLean County Fair association which is U give an exhibition this fall. The sec retary is Editor Hogue of The Wash burn Leader. During the past two years much has been done in the way of farmers securing the nucleus of herds of pure bred stock and consid erable attention is being paid to the improvement in the breeds of draught horses. There Is not the vast extent of free range as there was before the invasion in late years of the vast army of new settlers, hence the neces sity of much smaller herds and that being the case farmers see altogether better and more satisfactory results in the infusion of pure blood into what ever they undertake to breed. O. B. Wing, the county auditor, extensively Interested in farming and is owner of the Lakeside Farm is a devotee of the roadster class of horses and has in vested considerable in sires and mares for their breeding. N. W. Solenber ger, chairman of the board of county commissioners, who has been a resi dent in the county for twenty years is also doing his share in stimulating methods to secure the best returns along all liqes and bring to the farm er the maximum of profit for his la bor and energies. Machinery Output. In one. particular will the new de velopment and expansion display it self. L»ast year one car load of lubri cating oil was sufficient to supply the trade contiguous to Washburn, the greater portion of it for use on the dif ferent parts of farm machinery. This year at the beginning of harvest two cars of oil for wheels and pinions had been sold by the merchant^ and ma chinery dealers. This season west of Washburn there have been forty-two steam plows in operation, and nearly half of them were sold by Washburn houses this year. In this territory, too, there have been disposed of, for the present harvest, twenty-four com plete steam threshing rigs and two horse powers for remote parts of the OURS been especially animated and the movement of buggies and harness has been quite satisfactory. Two pros perous farmers bought surreys at $175 each. The largest machinery house in Washburn has branches at the new towns of LTnderwood and Garrison where also the output has b^n enor mous arising out of the fact that there have been four good crops In those lo calities and the harvesting of another one in progress. The head of this house Is T. B. Roney of B"argo and with him is associated J. P. Peterson, very successful resident of McLean county, an old timer who has been all through its vicissitudes, but always a firm believer in its possibilities and wealth foe the farmer.who would turn over the fertile tracts and farm intelli gently and well. J. H. Campbell Is the manager of the Washbvyn house. Note*. An active industry at Washburn Is the? flouring mill which Is owned by A. E. Johnson, J. T. McCulloch and H. C. Richards, the latter being the prac tical manager. The plant was re modeled a few years ago and it now represents an investment of $10,000 with a capacity of sixty barrels daily.
