A FEW Of the newspaper boys met al
Detroit Lake last Sunday to partake OF
Manager Vests fish dinner at the Hotel
Minnesota, but it was not general turn
out. It is now proposed to get as many
representatives of the press as possible to
meet at the same place on Thursday, the
29th inst, and perfect a permanent or
ganization. There ought to be goodly
number present. Why not have it unan.
imous every newspaper in North Da.
kota have representative there? This
would be the proper and the North Da.
kota way of doing things.

The editors of North Dakota have been
invited by Manager West, of the Hotel
Minnesota at Detroit Lake, to partake of
a fish dinner tomorrow. AS it doesn't
cost the average editor much Immediate
outlay for travel, it is likely quite num-
Der of the boys will be there. North Da-

gether and it, would seem eminently
proper that they should meet and eat

SOMEHOW the Fargo papers do not
seem to agree on candidate for delegate
to congress. The Argus seems to be will
ing to have Cass county man, but the
Republican objects-probably because
the Argus got there first in the suggestion.
Major Edwards is always for Fargo, but
somehow Fargo isn't always for Edwards.
As result Cass county generally counts
''eunuch' in most conventions.

young women Of the Buckeye state, We
sknow those who are worth having are
quite too proud to advertise the fact;
while the young man Of Dakota who

CONSIDERING the fact that the United

Garland is the officer who incurs the ex.

Rev. u. s. DAVIS, Shawnee, Iowa; Da-
vid j. Jones, Youngstown, Iowa; r.
Reese, Jackson, Iowa, and d. NJ. Ste
phens, ot Cummings, Ill, spent yester-
day in the city. They are looking over
the country with view Of locating a
Welsh colony ,and will examine the coun-
try as far west as Washington territory.
The colony wants 10000 acres Of land,
all together. Every train brings land
hunters. The numerous strikes and
lock-outs in the east turns the attention
of thousands to the free lands Of the
west. Mr.. Stephens, one of the gentle-
men named above, is night foreman Of a
rail mill, but he has been idle over half
the time during the past two years on ac-
count of strikes. And so it is with thou
sands Of others. The place to advertise the
advantages Of Dakota is in the manufac-
turing districts Of the east. The colony
in question has plenty Of money. The
members are industrious and intelligent
citizens. Circumstances force change
or they will soon exhaust the little money
stored up for "rainy day. and no
means will be left them to support fami-
lies and educate the children. Here in
the west each family can have a happy
home and every child can have an edu-
cation. When nthe Dakota farmer stops
to consider how much better off he is,
even in an unfortunately dry year, than
hundreds Of thousands of fellow beings
in the east, how thankful he is.

A Rather Serious Joke.

Fargo Argus: 1t might have been smart
for Marshal Maratta when MAJOR Barrett
OF the Aberdeen Republican wired him
about the appointment of a deputy to tel
egraph back: who's appointed marshal,
you or me-" But he is beginning to find
out that like the appointment of black
guard deputy here-it didn't prove popular.
But the joke of it allis that Barrett didn't
send the original telegram. 1t was a put
up job on him by some of Aberdeen's prac-
tical jokers, and he was naturally non
plussed when he received Maratta's reply.

Gen. Sheridan's report shows that we
have now less than $4,000 men in our
army. OF these 2,102 are officers, so
that we have an, officer for every II men.
The highest number of soldiers ever in
the army was in 1865, when we had
about 500 more than 000,0 900. In 1890
there was less than i 900, and in 1910,
shortly before the second war with En-.
gland, less than 10 600 men guarded the
whole United States. Ten years later
10000 were sufficient for all our needs;
and in 1S4s, at the close of the Mexican
war, we had less than so, 600 soldiers, and
only 100 or so more officers than we have
now. In 1861 the army jumped quickly
from 1000 TO iS6. 900 men. 1t increaced
