in the sale should be given to home mer-
chants instead OF going to the wholesale
dealers of St. Paul or Minneapolis; or at

travelling men have been requested not to
sell the asylum goods which could be pro-
cured here or ordered by dealers here,
but the excuse given is that il they do
not solicit the trade at the institution
others will.
As matter of comment it Is stated
that ever since the institution was started
a great deal of economy has always been
manifested in getting certain kinds Of
supplies. and in getting certain labor
done, while in other matters of this kind
there has been less. The Alert believes
that the largest institution IN the state,
supported by taxpayers, should
be utilized to protect and foster home
enterprise as much as possible and as
steadily as is consistent with good man
agement and convenience. The mer-
chants of the state are entitled to a
preference, ,and the profit permitted ought
to be u reasonable one, not more than
charged others, and not less.

Wheat Sowed on Stubble.

A good deal of seed grain is being
drilled in on stubble without further
preparation OF ground. In most cases
but small part of stubble has been
burned of. The ground Is in good
condition to attempt this kind Of sowing.
Walter Bowes, who is putting in piece
OF ground near Eldridge, in this manner,
says that wheat is coming up nicely.
The idea among the farmers appears to be
that If this proves wet season, they will
get crop if only the grain is covered
enough to get started. The time for
sowing Is about over and the next week
will certainly finish it. Oats and barley,
however, will be sowed after wheat SOW
ing is abandoned. The fact is clear,
however, that after all the grain that
can possibly be planted il in, there will
remain very large number of fields not
in crop this year, that raised big yields
last. The acreage will be considerably
reduced here, and it is fair to presume
will be throughout the entire state.

A SNOW SURPRISE.
Ten Years Ago Friday Another Snow
Storm Occurred.

Storm Occurred.
The weather gave the people another
surprise Thursday, in the way Of snow
storm, that left the ground comparatively
white Friday morning. The wind blew
frantically all night, fully keeping up its
record of the last two or three days. In
turning to the files OF The Daily Alert, it
is seen that snow storm occurred in
Jamestown exactly ten years ago, or on
May 20, 1882. The Alert failed to say much
about it, evidently being too surprised
and uncertain as to tho result, to adver-
tise May snow storm in the then newly
opened country. Old timers, however, say
that the snow storm then was blizzard
that drifted snow into the windows Of
houses and made everybody feel rather
blue for the time being.
The great event of the year 1882, how
ever, was not the snow storm of May
but the tremendous harvest that occurred
in the fall. Wheat yielded 80 to IS
bushels to the acre, and as the farmers
got good price for 1t, the country was
very prosperous. The Alert does not
relate what kind of weather preceded
the storm in 1882, being TOO fully
occupied in discussing the prospects of
town lots, and big schemes that ap.
peared every day with the hosts of new
arrivals, all of which we're reflected in its
columns, in large and striking ADVERTISE
ments.

The Carmen OF Fargo Organize

Railway Carmen.
The members of jamestown Star
Lodge No. S6, of this city, returned Sun
day from Fargo, where lodge of the
brotherhood was instituted by Grand
Secretary 8. Keliher of Minneapolis. The
new lodge starts out with good list of
charter members and includes nearly all
the carmen of Fargo. A large delega-
tion was present from Lodge No. 2 of
Barnesville, Mlnn.; Lodge 4S of Staples,
and As of Helena, Montana. Every
arrangement had been made for the COM
fort and accommodation of the visiting
members.
The meeting was called to order at
$50 by Grand Secretary Keliher. and
after few brief remarks and a history
Of the rapid growth and general pros
perity OF the order by the chairman and
other visiting members, the regular
work of institution and installation of
officers was conducted by the grand
secretary, assisted by Mr. Chas. Riseh of
Barnesville, Jno. J. Preston OF Moor
head, E. d. Shockey, J. X. Bingham and
D. S. Hamilton of jamestown. The
Brotherhood, although started but three
years ago, is low represented in all parts
of the United States and Canada, and is
recognized today as one of the
strongest Railway Brotherhoods in the
country. Its objects are to materially
aid and assist the members, to protect
and advance their interests and educate
them in their work by mutual inter-
change of Ideas on the best and most
economical methods OF performing their
work The order includes the car
builders, car inspectors, car repairers and
cleaners, when qualified to repair cars,
and although this branch of the service
has in the past received but little
consideration, they are without doubt
one of the most important branches of
the service, as the safety of trains de-
pends on their judgment and integrity.
The travelling public hardly realizes that
the safety of their lives depend on the
integrity of these men commonly called
wheel tappers. The Brotherhood hold
their third annual convention at St.
Louis, Mo-, commencing June 81, and
the jamestown lodge will be represented
by j. X. Bingham.

Notes.
The lecture Of State Superintendent
Ogden Tuesday, a: the court house,
was most interesting and instructive, in
asmuch as it set before the audience all
the workings of the Office of the depart
ment OF education. At the close Of the
superinteudents address. a resolution
was proposed by B. S. Russell, and
seconded and adopted by the audience,
to the effect that the citizens of James
town endorse the course of the state su.
periDtendent in the conduct of his Office,
and express the wish that the educational
affairs OF our state may long remain un-
der his control. Thesuperintendent stated
that IN his opinion the printing of school
blanks should be done by each county, if
the same uniformity and cheapness could
be secured, assby the present system.
The new plan under which the insti-
tute is working is proving very attractive
to the teachers. It consists IN practical
school work; the formation of the teach
ers present into a model school, where
instruction is given after the most ap-
proved manner, as a sample to the
teachers of how every day school work
should be conducted. Mics Bates, the
conductor, IS winning the respect and
regard of all. by her plain, level-headed
exposition of how teachers should teach
so as to make the school do the pupil the
most good.
On Friday evening Senator Worst will
deliver lecture at the court house to
the teachers and citizens. The popular
and gifted senator will doubtless at
tract large audience. This is in the
regular institute lecture course.
The teachers reading circle work is
entering upon it's second years course,
and the superintendent of this county
can see already the beneficial effect on
the literary morale of the county
teachers.
The sentiments presented by the
teachers is an interesting feature of the
daily opening exercises. Below are those
for this morning:

Specify the Expenses.

George Lutz was in Fargo Thursday
and is quoted by the Forum as saying in
regard to the Worlds fair appropriation:
1T certainly behooves the people Of the
sovereign state Of the Union-North
Dakota to display their patriotism as
American citizens in the peacable way
offered, by a proper and becoming exhi-
pition of our resources. The appropria-
ton should be made specifically, and
handled the same as any other business
proposition, n,-the bill setting forth the
actual amount needed Tor building
purposes, salaries, etc. This would
assure the people that their money was
being expended properly and to the best
advantage"

What would Capt. Gray think If he
could sail in here TO-DAY? A hundred
years ago-nothing but sea and sky and
forest; now beautiful towns, built by
intelligent and enterpris,ng people, and
crafts of I'll kinds on the waters.
Here comes our boat. Only few
moments and we are safely landed or
Peterson's Point. Nature has done
much for this place. 1t is a pleasing
picture, such beautiful trees and soft
green grass, dotted with flowers. The
birds are so happy, singing in the trees
We can hear the roar of the ocean, but
we are not there yeG.
Carriages are waiting to take us across
the point I enjoyed every moment Of
that ride We are so packed in the car
riages that if one should fail we would
all have to go.
A great many cottages are already
built, and others will be this season.
This is summer resort, and many
visitors come here, for the bathing facili-
ties.
Col. Heustis has fine cottage and
they expect to spenda part OF the sum-
mer here. We met so many pleasant
people; Mr.. and Mrs. Austin, Mr. and
Mrs. Clark and little son, were in the
cottage with US.
The beach is so fine for bathing. The
tide was out, and we could sit in the
soft sand and watch hundreds of people
some in bathing suits, but most Of
them barefooted, wading in up to their
knees. The beach was lined with shoes
and stockings; not only the children, but
the ladies could not resist the temptation
and are out as far as they dare 60.
If we only had the Pacific ocean at
jamestown, wouldn't it be a treat? I
watched the sport, 1t was such a pretty
sight. I dreaded when the time came
to leave
The bottom of an old wha]eship was
carried in by the tide, and left high and
dry on the beach. There is no name,
date or anything to tell it's story. We
walked over 1t, and around it, wondered
whence 1t sailed, and where it was lost.
It was lunch time. Through the sand
streams of people are vending their way
back to the cottages. Groups are sitting
around their. tables spread on the ground,
and all are hurrying, some to get water,
others to make coffee. Our lunch was
tastefully laid on table in the cottage,
it was delicious spread. Thus we
passed another pleasant hour.
Then there was hurry and hustle to
set to the boats, but fearful as we were
we got back in ample time.
But we must now bid adieu to the
lovely scene. One of the pleasantest
memories will be my visit to Ocosta.
I think Col. Heustis may we'll be proud
Of hlsAcity and bis cottage by the sea.

Memorial Day,

The following order has been issued
from the headquarters of North Dakota
department. G. A. R.:
COMRADES - Again Memorial Day
draws near. The day that should bring
the past with its glorious achievements,
it's unequaled hardships and it's final
triumphs very near to us. The day on
which, with softened hearts and tender
hands, we should strew the graves of our
departed comrades with choicest flowers
The commander does not desire, has
no right to prescribe any special forms
or methods for the observance, but he
earnestly desires all posts of the depart
ment to properly observe the day.
All posts should make arrangements
to attend church in body on Memorial
day, and to this end it would be we'll to
select the minister to deliver the memo
rial sermon.
Each post will observe Memorial day
as they think advisable, but the com
mander would suggest that they invite
the public generally, and especially the
school children, to take part with them.
We must remember that the children
of today are the men and women of the
AuUuJ0s duu CudU Iuoy uldy Do bOIo W dCt
we'll their part when the time comes,
their education should be carefully at
tended to now, and especially should
loyalty and love of country be instilled
into their minds. In this, Grand Army
posts can and should assist. A few more
years and the old soldiers will have
passed away and it seems to me that we
can be mustered out when the time
comes with less regret If We know the
generation to follow are thoroughly i'm
bued with loyalty and devotion to coun-
try, and will not let the old flag which
We defended and maintained, be dis
honored. By order of
WM. A. BENTLEY,
Department Commander.

ana she nad 70 discuss with her aunt ina
unpleasant and important subject tb,f
troubled her before she went home. 1t was
true that she had already made I'M her
mind on this marriage proposed to her
by her father and her stepmother. She
did not want to be married, and she had
said so; they had smiled in answer and
told her she must not decide hastily
Madelaine felt sure she was right INIT
she wanted to be justified by her auut's
assent to her opinion. Aunt Virgipie
always agreed with her. 1--WE think SO
much alike" the girl said to herself, as
she ate her breakfast, perfectly uncon-
scious that she had as yet never yielded
up her own will to that of Aunt Vir-
ginie.
She could not help enjoying Monsieur
Henri's talk, it sounded SO interesting
and at last, when he gave an account of
a journey he had made in Switzerland
that summer, her cheeks flushed and her
eyes glowed as he related his Alpine ad
ventures, for Mademoiselle Chaumelle
had the gift of drawing out converse
ton from others.
Madelaine's eyes strayed to the Wis
itor's face and she saw how truly it ex-
pressed his feelings. He looked so deter
mined, SO in earnest, and yet there was
a sweet, kind look in his eyes that fas-
cinated her in spite of herself. Her OBJ
servations were quickly interrupted.
Monsieur Henri seemed to feel that
her eyes were fixed on him. He looked
up so suddenly that he met them full.
Madelaine tarned away with an angry
flush at the admiration she saw in Mon
,sieur Henri's face. She did not know
how much of it had been provoked by
the absorbed interest he had read in
hers. Her Impotence came back. She
felt indignant with her aunt. She was
certain that her mother would not APP
prove of such a sudden acquaintance,
for Aunt Virginie went on talking to
this stranger as though he were an old
friend.
II shall tell her." Madelaine thought,
"that German story mother gave me to
read, where the heroine dances and talks
with stranger all through the evening
of e masked ball. and then after supper,
when every one unmasks, the unknown
cavalier turns out to be the common
hangman. Yes, indeed, | shall scold
Aunt Virginie for her imprudence."
Madelaine drew herself up with a
pretty air of dignity that delighted the
observant guest on the opposite side of
the table.

uOWH.
Days passed away, and yet no sum
mons came to Madelaine from Rouen.
She was enjoying herself far too much
to take count of the days as they slipped
pleasantly by; she simply lived in the
present: and even when she remembered
the object of her visit she shrank from
the unpleasant subject and tried to for
get it.
On that first morning she had begun
to lecture her aunt as soon as Monsieur
Henri went away, and then Mademoi-
selle Chaumelle had stopped her, and
had made most touching confession.
She told Madelaine in simple, pathetic
words the love story of her youth-a
story which till now her niece had
never suspected. Madelaine had indeed
twinges of remorse as she listened to
he tender little narrative; till now dear
old Aunt Virginie had seemed too unat-
tractive to be the heroine of such ro-
nance. The girl listened with full sym
patty; she had never felt so much
interested. 1t was plain to her that
Aunt Virginie's betrothed had been a
hero; it was very, very sad that death
had stepped in to part such pair of
lovers.
The girl wondered, while she listened,
whether special qualities belonged to
special features, and whether Monsieur
Henri, who, according to Mademoiselle
Chaumelle, was the living portrait of
her dead Maurice, possessed his heroic
nature.
Since that first day it had been diff
cult for either aunt or niece to think of
any one but Monsieur Henri, he had
taken such complete possession of them
both. He came to see them every even
ing, and before he left them he planned
some delightful expedition for the next
day.
One morning he persuaded them to
drive to Jumieges, and they had dined
at the little inn there, and driven home
in the dusk beside the river. Another
day they went in the Seine steamer to
Havre, and visited Trouville. Today
they were embarked on much longer
journey.
They had driven over to Lillebonne,
and after seeing its lions they were now
bound for Tancaryille, pretty little viii
lage with an old castle beside the Seine.
Monsieur Henri had assured them they
could lodge at TancarVille, as the days
