On the arrival of the Washburn high school military band the great event opened with music and a general announcement of the afternoon program. At 1 p. m., the program opened with music and a big free auction for the farmers. Some ?l,8O0 worth of stock and goods were handled at this sale by Auction eer McLaughlin.

In an article headed "Anti-McCum ber tactics," in the Tribune, taken from the Plaza Pioneer, who deplores the narrow mindedness of the James town Capital in commenting as it did on the senator's illness, we find the same narrow mindedness they have deplored in their fellow editor when they hold up such an article as a sample of all progressive republicans. The narrowness of individuals is very sad indeed and results from lack of true culture and refinement, which is not confined to political parties, color race or position in society. It is simply another lesson to "cast the beam out of thine own eye." This part of Mercer county is com ing up the ladder. We have four Sun day schools and preaching every two weeks. Our Sunday school convention at Knife River school house was a success. We expect to have a pic nic near the Phelan ranch house on June 25, and another July 4.

Mrs. Jacob Hanck spent Monday night with her sister, Mrs. Pleuvis. Oarl Denniston is helping Mr. Mid delstedter shear sheep. There are some cases of glanders in this vicinity. It seems that. North Dakota has more cases than almost any other state. A good remedy would be to pay full value for those destroy ed, then every man whose horses were affected would be reporting. An intel ligent person realizes the necessity of immediate action, but there are ig norant, stubborn people who will keep a glandered horse for what work he can do, spreading the contagion ev erywhere, and the state veterinarian must ferrit them out. We hope this will be discussed in the next session of the legislature, along with the ob noxious stock law, which with our many settlers is a genuine nuisance and a great wrong, where years ago it was directly opposite.

P. Thurston, publisher of the Hazel ton Republican, who is a deputy in the office of Alex. McDonald, present Land Commissioner, and a candidate for the office of commissioner of agri culture and labor, which reads as follows: Brother Publisher: Irrespective of the fact that he is a candidate from the county in which I am a publisher, and irrespective of the further fact that I am at present his deputy in the state land depart ment, the undersigned favors the candidacy of Alex. McDonald for com missioner of agriculture and labor on the republican ticket, because he be lieves the state's appropriation of $15,000 annually should be partially used among the newspapers of the state. It Is an undisputed fact that the country weeklies of North Dakota have done more to induce settlers to come to her prairies than ha3 the office of commissioner of agriculture and labor under the past administra tion. As a publisher, interested in the state's development—and one of its real empire builders—how much en couragement have you had from that department, and how much of the $30,000 appropriated by the last legis lature for the promotion of immi gration was paid for space in your columns? If you believe that a large portion of the state's appropriation should be paid for newspaper advertising, instead of being spent, out of the state, you have this issue left before the primaries and can do much to elect a man who will recognize the worth of the* country newspaper. Fraternally yours, W. P. THURSTON. Now while this article may appeal to a few mercenary publishers, it doesn't go with the Pioneer, nor will it appeal to one in ten of the frater nity. The North Dakota publishers are on the alert for every dollar's worth of business from state, county or private individual that, they can legitimately gather in, but to take money or any considerable amount of it from the state and its resources in the country weeklies, with a cir culation averaging 95 per cent with in the state, and probably 80 per cent not getting outside the confines of the county in which they are pub lished, would be like taking candy from a baby. We are aware that some few have criticised Commission er Gilbreath because he has spent money outside the state, but we never looked for criticism from a newspap er man, who knows that you can't reach the people of Illinois. Michigan, Ohio and Indiana through the Hazel ton Republican or any other North Dakota weekly. How would it look to see big, flar ing advertisements, costing the state Theod 153 Frfth $30,000 a year in the various coun try weeklies in this state Inviting the people (who are already here) to come to North Dakota? Why, if Mr. Oilbreath had done that he should be asked to resign. The Pio neer doesn't know just where the money of the 3tate has been spent in advertising. Perhaps some ha9 gone to some of the large eastern papers that already had plenty of money, and whose daily receipts were more than the receipts of the best weekly in the state for a whole year. Perhaps some went to the big reli gious weeklies likely some went to the Methodist publications when the commissioner knows there are a lot of people in North Dakota who think the Presbyterians or the Catho lics with their large and influential publications should not have been overlooked. In fact, the commission er has had to run the whole gamut of public disapproval, and if he was built on lines to worry about those things he wouldn't have had a night's rest in the years he has been on the job. But the big uncontro vertible argument is that Gilbreath has got results Why, if the adver tising manager of some baking pow der or pork and beans concern could show half the results with a $100,000 appropriation that Gilbreath has with $30,000, every rival concern in the country would be after him, offering him three or four times the salary he had been getting. As the Pioneer has remarked be fore, North Dakota can ill afford to lose the services of so valuable a man as Gilbreath The state needs a boster, and Commissioner (Mi breath has taken all the degrees and occupied all the chairs in that worthy order, and the fact that he has spent the money entrusted to him In a manner that produced results, that brought new settlers into the state by the thousands, instead of dipping out the funds to the publishers of coun try weeklies to buy their support should entitle him to state-wide com mendation rather than being con demned by a few mercenary publish ers. $4, $4.50 Oxfords, $2.95. Go see Busch. Ready For the Next Ont. A generous and brave but very ec centric Virginia planter named Hill Carter, who had once been an officer in the Uiiiu-d States navy, had a band to hand battle at fisticuffs one day with bis plantation overseer and came off second tiest. He therefore chal lenged lie overseer to a formal duel, but the latter declined on the ground that, being a husband and father, be was under obligation not to risk leav ing his family destitute. Carter at once removed that objection by set tling upon the family a comfortable annuity. Then everything was got ready for the fight, but just as the two men faced each other the sheriff arrived on the scene, took them into custody and had them bound over to keep the peace. Mr. Carter did not. however, change the deed of gift with which he bad provided for the over Beer's family, remarking that he might wish some time to resume the iuter rupted fight and hence would rather keep everything in readiness for prompt action.—New l'ork Post.
