around Pemhima, examining the grain

gone north to the international bound

Mr.. Booker, west of the city, was
tbs best looking grain he had seen OH
his whole trip: that the straw and
heads represented forty-fve bushels
to the acre, but that it would yield
less than thirty. on account of it not
being filled out properly. lie said the
Red !iivcr Valley, as Il whole. is con.
sidcrably above any thing he had seen,

From careful inquiries, we find the
heat of last week did some damage in
localities where the soil is light and
the crop not us far advanced as the
rest. Harvest is now well underway
in almost every neigllborllood in the
county. and another twelve days will

THE TICKET.

Devils Lake Inter-Ocean.
On behalf of Mr.. HansbrOugll, the
Inter.Occan desires to say: The re.
publicans of North Dakota in convell.
ton assembled have done exceedingly
well. by their action they have not
only quieted the fears of the Scandi.
navians, but they have made atone.
meat for the wrong done their coun.
tryman, NJ. N. Johnson, by the last
legislature, in refusing to confirm the
nomination believed to have been
gained by him in the senatorial eau.
Gus. They have done more than this;
they have destroyed the last lingering
hope of democracy that North Dako.
til could be made u democratic state.
There is not "a single element that
tends toward discomfort. no locality
claims to have been ignored. no sore
heads left the convention swearing
vengeance, the farmers were met more
than half way and have no grievance
to appeal to the people OH, tile third
party can gain no footllold in North
Dakota through basing claims to rec.
ognition OIL sins of omission or com.
mission OH the part of the republicans.
Even the prolibitiOnists are satisfied
and those in favor of a tariff reform
approve the expression of the cOnven.
ton OH this subject and are satisfied
with the position of the candidates.
Mr.. IansbrOugh alone, and as an in.
diyidual, may have reason to feel that
lie was sacrificed for the sins of others
for Il crime that he had ITO cOnnec.
tion with Or relation to, but he nc.
cepts, like the true soldier that lie is,
the vigorous tighter that he is recog.
nizetl to be, the fortunes OF war and
extends to the Hon. NJ. N. johnson,
his most cordial congratulations, and
the lnter.Ocean pledges to him its
most earnest and most hearty support.
And OH behalf Of the republicans of
Ramsey county, natives as well as
foreign born, it pledges the vote OF
the county without scratch. Our
differences are local and personal.
When they will DC settled or how, no
one can say. Time may wear them
out and the day may come when Ram.
sey county will cease to attract the at.
tention of the state by its display of
dirty linen and will take the position
in the party to which it is entitled.
To those at home who have secured
the defeat of Mr.. Hansbrougl,, and to
them alone is due all credit. lie de.
sires to say, You are energetic fighters
and as such, are worthy of any mans
steel. Whether the contest now OH,
must be fought to a finish, remains
with you to say. We believed we

have the endorsement of the state con.

Nothing Saved.

a little boy was walking with his
father one day. As they trudged along
the father saw an old horseshoe lying in
the road, and babe the boy pick It uF
and take it along.
The lad looked at tho shoe carclessly
and replied that it was not worth carry.
ing, whereupon the father said nothing
more. but quietly picked it up himself.
Ho pretty soon sold the old iron for {:
penny at roadside smithy and invested
the coin in cherries.
The day was hot, and presently the
man noticed that his son was beginning
to cast longing eyes upon the log q
cherries, but did not offer any to his son,
He made pretcnse Of eating them, and
dropped one to tho ground as il by acct.
dent.
The boy picked it up quickly and ate
it with Il relish.
y little further on another dropped
and this, too. the lad lost no time in Sc.
curing. So. one by one, all the cherrie,
were dropped and picked up.
"Wcll," remarked the father, when
the last one had been eaten, "it did no,
pay to pick up that horseshoe perhaps
but if you had stopped once for that you
wouldn't have needed to bend twenty
times for the cherries"

THE DEMOCRATS.

The democratic party of North Da.
kota, lave had their state convention,
and lald down the foundation upon
which the success or defeat of the
party depends, this fall. The entll,,si-
assn manifested indicated u lack of
confidence, and the attendance from
this county was not up to former
years. they nominated Il full state
ticket. Tie nominees of which, we
venture TO say, are prepared for their
fate.
The resolutions are nearly sterio.
type form Of last years resolutions,
excepting the one pertaining to pro.
lihition. Here they adopt the plank
used by their party in every state
where the question of prohibition is
made al issue. and demand a recon.
sideration of the clause in the consti
tuition and for a submission of the
same. at All early date. How the ell
ithusiastic prohibition democrats Of
this county will take this. remains t,
be seen. y good many are liable t.
think that the principle involved il
worth more to them than the success
of Il few ward politicians III large
cities.
