Helping the Boom Along.

The North Dakota constitutional con-
vention boom is being helped along adj
mirably by the press of North Dakota
The Dawson Times is an illustration:
The Times takes pleasure in acknowl-
edging the receipt of an invitation to be-
come the guest Of the city Of Bismarck on
July 4th. The city has raised over So, 600
to be expended in making it pleasant for
the visitors on that day, which taken to-
gether with the assembling of the
delegates Of the constitutional con-
yention, will make it the "Red Letter
day" !" in the history Of Bismarck, and prob
ably the largest gathering of prominent
North Dakota people ever met together at
one timel in the territory. In the years to
it will be often told to their children and
grandchildren, II was visitor at Bismarck
and attended the assembling OF the con-
yention that formulated the constitution Of
this, our grand and prosperous North
Dakota" We see by our exchanges, that
the people are intending to flock there
from every direction. And we hear that
all the prominent people of our own county
are going to be there sure.

At the Race Trac,s.

Hi there! Steady boy, all ready! Let ser
go! Get down there, Spokane! G'lang,
Proctor Knott! Now for the home stretch!
Whoop!! These area few of the express
sions to be heard at the race track every
evening nowadays and those who have
not visited that center of sporting life and
excitement have very poor conception of
the energy and activity with which Bis
marck is sur.charged. There has not been
an evening during the past week that
the events on the track have not been more
numerous and eventful than at any 0rdi-
nary county fair or country races and the
men who have participated have been en-
joying all the exhilaration and stimulating
enthusiasm of an American DERBY. Bron-
chos. thoroughbreds, mongrels, roadsters,
carriage horses, dray horses and slender
limbed racers have mingled in bewilder-
ing variety and many an interesting spin
around the course has been witnessed
There are some good animals in training
and the races will be much more meritor-
ious than has been anticipated.

A Magnificent Military Parade.
AS the Fourth Of July draws near and
arrangements for the celebration approach
perfection 1t becomes certain that the par
ade will be the most magnificent ever wit
messed in the northwest mot excepting the
great pageants of which st. Paul and Min
neapolis have boasted. The military par
ade will be by far the grandest in the his
tory of Dakota. The following telegram
from Major Powell was received by Cap
tain Baker yesterday:
FIT. LINCOLN, June 25.
Capt. i. r. Baker: Orders have been re-
ceived for troops to participate in the
Fourth of July celebration. There will be
about seventy cavalrymen and horses;
from Ft. Yates. This will give four COM
panies of infantry and two large platOons
of cavalry. WM. 81. POWELL,
Commanding.
The magnitude of the military feature of
the parade may be realized when it is
known that aside from the seventy caval-
rymen and horses from Ft Yates, there
will be two companies of infantry from
Yates; two companies of infantry from
Lincoln; the full regimental band from
Yates;a large battery; the Governors
guard of Bismarck; visiting militia from
other Dakota points, and the Grand Army
of the Republic. Add to this the forty two
young ladies who, as a cavalry contingent,
will represent the states; the tiremen; the
First Regiment band of the Dakota Nation
al guard from Valley City, and bands
from other northwestern cities, and, you
have a parade that would do credit to any
city in the union.

An Error in Racing Programme.

The gentlemen interested in the races
for the Fourth have called attention to an
error in the published programme. The
first race free for all, mile heats, will be
athree best in five" instead of atwO best in

enter horses should remember this, SO that
there may be no dispute on the track.

Everybody WIN Decorate.


But a few days remain in which to COM
plete arrangements for the celebration.
The committees are doing good work and
with the aid of citizens every phase and
feature of the great demonstration will be
made splendid success. One of the
hardest worked committees is that upon
which devolves the work Of public decora-
ton. This committee has an important
duty and Judging from the character of
the men of whom it is composed it will be
well performed. But this will be a small
part of the decoration. Every citizen who
has the welfare of the city at heart and
every owner OF q prominent building will
do his share toward adding to the beauty
and magnifconce of the display. Among
the buildings which offer fine opportuni-
ties for decoration are the First National
bank block, the Bismarck bank
block, the Central, Merchants
bank, Capital National, Grifi MS
Fourth street building, the Lamborn, the
Dakota block, the postoffice, the TRIBUNE
block and all of the buildings on the south
side of Main. These are a few of the promi-
nent buildings that afford tempting OppOr-
tunity for brilliant and attractive decora-
tion. In addition to these are the numer-
Gus hotels and handsome residences, the
Sheridan house being particularly conspic-
uous in its location. No building could be
more fortunately located than the Sheri-
dan 50 far as giving strangers
a favorable impression of the city,
and Proprietor Bly,, with his usual public
spirit and loyalty, will see that the build
ing wears a respondent and patriotic
garb. The capitol building, the public
school building and the court house will
also be dressed in tri-colored
grandeur, and the scene will
not only be inspiring to the visitors, but
promises to surprise even the most enthu-
siastic Bismarcker. No citizen should
longer delay the purchase of bunting and
flags. He who procrastinates may awaken
when it is too late.

Money is being wagered freely with the
odds in favor of Hays, one bet being $50
to $50 that Payne will be knocked out in
less than twelve rounds. A number of

The Pontoon Bridge.

So many plans for the Improvement Of
Bismarck and Mandan have failed of ex-
ecutiOn in the past that many refuse to
place confidence in any new enterprise dis
cussed in the press. The TRIBUNE has
devoted a little space to the proposition for
the construction of a pontOon bridge over
the Missouri at this point, and it has met
with the doubts of citizens and of the press.
The Mandan Pioneer is particularly doubt
full. 1t fears that the scheme is not practi-
cal and from the tone of its articles on
the subject one would infer that Tuttle
fears the bridge would draw trade from
Mandan to Bismarck. Tuttle should not
be alarmed, The gentlemen who propose
to build the bridge have no such design.
They are business men who believe that
in the future the investment will prove
profitable. On the other hand the people
of Burleigh and Morton counties who
studied the project believe the bridge will
prove of great convenience and benefit to
the farmers, merchants and mechanics Of
both counties. No man who gives the
matter serious consideration can doubt its

dan, will increase traffic between the cities
hundred-fold; will give farmers better
market for their produce and in every way
add to the comfort, convenience and desir-
ability of life in this section of the Mis-
souri, river valley. The bridge, if con-
structed on the plan proposed-such as
that of the bridge at Sioux City-will cost
fsAo
paugh, who is one OF the gentlemen inter-
ested, stated while here recently that tie
company would construct the bridge at
once provided the people OF Burleigh and
Morton counties would give them encour-
agement. What will be done remains to
be seen.
