Did Not Go OFF.
[From Tuesday's Daily.]

Owing to a delay in the return of the
chief gunner the immense blast of political
rock for which the dynamite was inserted
Saturday by Senator LaMoure, did not
take place. A large number of citizens
who have confidence IN Ex-Governor Ord
ways fighting qualities, and who now re-
member with satisfaction the manner in
which he kept chip on each shoulder dur.
ing his administration as governor Of the
territory, gathered at the capitol yesterday
with the hope and expectation that he
would be present to add to the interest in
the proceedings. On Saturday last the
hazardous Senator LaMoure, unmlndful
of results, accused him of giving and re.
ceiving bribes. 1t was known that he was
in Fargo and that he intended to return to
make reply. Oh. what a glorious row was
pictured by the morbid minds of the sensa-
tionalists. LaMoure had accused Ordway
of bribery. Ordway returned. They met
in the senate, where Ordway demanded
and was granted the right to speak. He
strobe majestically to the front
of the chamber, his giant form
towering above all else. His
eyes cast daggerss3 at the tail and frowninp

In the emergency clause OF the Grand
Forks university bill providing funds for
the gymnasium, the thoughtful Walsh
states that they need the money to properly
develop those parts used in the manly arts,
and TO learn how to handle their gun. It
is needless to suggest that the college song
after be "J-y ct y-r g-n."

The June Wide Awake might well be called a

in Wide Awake; the story is most path stic. The
scene of Miss Risley Stewards brilliant story is on
board an ocean steamer; 1t is entitled The Naugl-
Is California story, The Honse that Jack Built.
Mrs. Annie Sawyer Downss story is of the Con
Ieaerste @ slae n the civil War Jolly tale called
by Sara Trainer Smith, Overheard in the Java
Sea, Will go to eyerybody's hearr. The serials
are excellent: Margaret Sidney's Five Little

for readers; Sybil Fairs Fairness, by Chas Tai
Dot, VIII be enjoyed by Wide Awake's grown-up

work. The record should be kept from June

these registration books were filled up and
Returned to the Office in 1880, and nearly all
of them used for statistical purposes. II is
hoped that double this number will be rb-

not receiving Registers can ontain them by
sending their names aud addresses to the
