SOU or less per ton means a big thing for
Pierre. Pierre is having a tough time of
it keeping up the electric lights and other

eastern fuel. The Missouri slope Ignite
Will be their salvation-and Pierre must
have the lights while in the race for per-
manent capital location.

Mr.. D. A. Stewart of Stewartsdale was
in the city Saturday and made the TR1B-
uNE a call. Mr.. Stewart was the first set
tier at that place; is an old timer, and can
always be counted with those interested in
the welfare of Burleigh county: II remem-
Der back in 80 when 1 settled on my claim
there was only a few sheep in the county
then, but ! am pleased to see so many 60
ing into the sheep industry. l believe
there is money IN it."
Joseph Allen, one of the most popular
old timers Of Sibley, was attending the
convention Saturday. Mr.. Allen saws he
well remembers back in 80 when he
first settled on his claim and had some diff
ticulty in making his choice in regard
to location, but has no fault to find with
the one ne chose. The water is good and
plenty of it, and one can raise grain or
oloCh dilu MI. Alltu has On6 OI the largest
sheep ranches in the county and has good
crops.
E. B. Brown of Mckenzie, who was a
delegate to the county convention Satur-
day, is another of the old time settlers in
Burleigh county. He is also a sharp poll
tician and is n who labOrs for his town,
county and state. He said to the TRIBUNE:
"The people in my vicinity are tired of
supporting a paper or a man who labors
only to hinder those who are working for
the advantage of our county's welfare.
We want men in the convention at Grand
Forks who are agreeable to the farmers
and will work for the country and city
alike"
In speaking of the Mecca Temple excur-
sion the Fargo Argus says: "Uncle John"
Davidson and Hon. W. T. Perkins, two
members of the Ell Zagal living at Bis
marck, came down during the night and
were on hand to escort the brethren
through this division and show them every
attention possible. Several of the. Fargo
members Of Ell Zagal escorted the excnr-
sion as far as Casselton, and on the way
DIR. Langdon, on behalf Of Ell Zapal, pre-
sented the travellers with a magnificent silk
banner containing a welcome from, Ell
Zagal to all the temples taking part in the
excursion. 1t was pronounced by far the
handsomest banner which had been given
them.
