delighted at the fact that their holiday trade
surpasses all expectation, and in many cases
any former year. Part of it is due to the
fact that other towns expected little holiday
trade, on account of the price of wheat, and
made no preparations for it, forcing it to go
to Fargo. The Argus on Sunday had sixteen
columns of paid locals of holiday goods. The
liberal advertisement of the dealers has no
doubt been one of the leading reasons foI the
fine trade.

Bowed Down" is said to have rivaled the
famous rendition of Carl Schurz. The task
was little above the reach of the average
amateur, but they won plaudits for the earn
estness of their efforts.
