AFTER THE FAIR.
Hearty Thanks Returned to Every

body Interested in the Exhibit.
TO the Editor Of 7he Tribune.
The reception given the committee
having in charge the Burleigh county
exhibit at Minneapolis Fair, was of such
a nature that on leaving we made to the
public the enclosed acknowledgements:
TO the Editor Minneapolis Tribune:
The committee in charge Of the Bismarck and
Mandan exhibit at the Minneapolis fair held
during the past week, have met with such a
hearty welcome and otf-hand assistance and at
tcntion by the mem bers of the press of both st.
Paul and Minneapolis, by the officers and assist
ants Of the Northern Pacific and other railroads,
VIM. King-that we deem it a pleasant duty to
make public acknowledgment ent Of our tcelin ge
and say to you all, ''We thank you, gentlemen -
Now we will return to our people cheered and
encouraged to greater cXertions in developing
northwestern Dakota, and will cherish ihc hope
that our growth and prosperity viii be the means
of making Minneapolis and St. Paul one, and
the greatest inland city on the American CONT
nent. j. F. WALLACE.
It is now due the contributors to that
exhibit that we thank them for their kind
partiality in selecting the committee.
We believe good and lasting impression
has been made, and if followed up by
prompt personal attention on our part to
visitors seeking homes and land, we must
reap great advantages from this timely
undertaking. In conclusion, we feel it
due to remind the public that Mr.. F. j.
Mead, of Mandan, did more than any one
person to secure most conspicuous pO-
sition, and his good judgment and taste
in debating the style OF building con.
tributed largely toward making the ex-
hiblt success We believe the sentl~
ment Of the public is reflected when we
say to the editor of The TRIBUNE that
the contribution OF 700 copies Of the il,
lustrated edition Of that paper was the
most valuable contribution from any one
source. We did intend to make state.
ment giving a thorough account of ex-
pcnditures. We will simply say that we
got away with all that was contributed
and drew to the bottom Of our own
purses. >. +. WALLACE.
In behalf of committee.
The building and place occupied at
the recent fair is reserved for Bismarck
and Mandan next year, SO that expense
will be saved Now let those interested
in the development Of Burleigh county
plan from now on to make the display a
success. Let grain and vegetables be
grown and prepared for display, and let
them be cheertully exhibited when they
are called tor Already several visits
have been made to Bismarck by persons
seeking opportunity for investment, as a
result Of our exhibit this year.

Concerning Lands Bought by
the State at Tax Sales.

In our issue Of to- day we reproduce
the ordinance for the relief of delin~
quent tax payers. 1t was submitted to
the people by the late constitutional
convention, was ratified at the election
last December, and is therefore to-day
part and parcel of the supreme law OF
the land.
1t was intended to relieve those whose
property had become forfeited to the
State or any political corporation there
in, on account Of non payment of taxes
previous to January list, 1879; those
whose property had been sold for non
payment Of taxes and licenses, and
bought in by the State up to January
list, 1879; and delinquent tax payers
previous to that time.
There is no act of legislation on the
statute books which directly interests
so large class of our people as this
ordinance.
The delinquent list in this parish since
1870 is very large, and the title to much
valuable property, as is well known, is
now in the State, she having become the
purchaser at tax sales annually made.
If people desire to take advantage Of
the benefits Of the ordinance they must
do SO previous to the 1st day OF nexi
January.
lie they desire to redeem their lands
previous to that day, they can do SO on
paying simply the principal of the tar
without any cost, penalty, interest, tee
or charge whatever.
After that time all charges. interests
cost, penalties and fees revive. and as II

| tight Oh the lamp, lift it up and carry it
as very careless person or child would,
side ways or upside down, and it will
invariably go out; or upset it, as it by
accident, and the same result will be
accomplished. Then take the wick and

not ignite, remove the wick and place it

all in flame, pour the Elaine upon the
burning mass, and it will be Immediate
