now. AS to an appropriation for the
Worlds Fair, we should have it by all
means, or make no show at all at Chi
cago. The extra tax will amount to less
than 81 on each $1,000 valuation.

ton, finds himself endorsed by a mass
meeting Of the employees under him,

A special from Fargo to the Minneap-
oils Tribune, says that Gov. Burke said
Monday morning that he would probably
call IN extra session within a few days to
meet at Bismarck, May 81. He finds no
authority in the constitution by which a
session can be limited to the considera-
ton of subjects not named in the call,
but will trust to the good sense of the
members to get through as soon as posi-
| BILE. He thinks one week will be plenty
of time in which to transact business re-
garding the presidential election and
worlds fair.
1t is understood that a couple of Bis
marck youths, smarting under a sense of
"lOuSs OCCdSlOuou Wy ouuO1t 1lUO1C plC-
MICS at the wood pile, resolved to leave,
far as the bridge, but the visions of
three meals, regularly eaten each day at
home, and a good soft bed to sleep in at
returned to the home which they had
forsaken SO shortly before. Whether
they intended to visit the wild prairie of
the west, and slaughter the untamed
| redskins, or become "wild and woolly'
| cowboys, has not yet been determined.
The "chestnut" social at the Metho-
dist church Friday evening was a
thoroughly informal affair. Topics for
conversation were presented, principal
among the "chestnutty" ones being the
$500 Road" The custom of charging
an admission fee was another "%chestnut."
This is, as is we'll known, a very old
custom, and worthy of the name of
chestnut" Each person upon leaving
was presented with a card, inscribed on
which was a "chestnutty" maxim. A
very pleasant evening was the opinion of
all. The Young Ladies' Aid society de-
sires to extend thanks to each one
present, who with the admission fee, con-
tributed to the church repair fund.
Edgeley Mail: The 'own and only"
A. T. Cole OF Glendale, writes a newsy
letter to the Fargo Forum every few
days. In a recent letter he dwells at
length upon prospective railroad build.
ing in this section. He asserts that the
Great Northern is surely to build west
from Glendale to the Missouri-prob-
ably Fort Yates. This, he assures the
Forum, is but one Of the extensions con-
templated. He says the Milwaukee is
going to extend north beyond Edgeley,
that the 500 is going to Bismarck from
Merricourt, and the Great Northern and
the 500 going to the Missouri is sure to
start the Northern Pacific from Edgeley.
This is a great program, providing Cole
has any authority for what he says.
The Arbor Day exercises, Friday
we're entertaining and instructive. The
pupils marched from the school house to
the Methodist church. After recitations
and singing by the pupils, General
| Hughes delivered an address. He spoke
of the days being the anniversary of the
second day in the battle Of the Wilder
ness, and from this he proceeded to i'm
press upon the minds of those present
that the country WAS saved then by the
men who went out and fought, and that
those same men would place in the hands
of those now in school, the sacred task
of preserving the union, so dearly
bought. After the addr-s SIS, those
present went to the school house, where
a tree was planted, and dedicated by
Robert Kline in an impressive little
speech to the G. A. r. in behalf of whom
the tree was accepted by Judge Win
chester. Trees we're planted by each of
the several departments, and by them,
appropriately named.
Mr.. Geo. R. Bander of >Gloversville,
N. Y, who has been in the city for the
past few days, represents M Of the
great glove factories in that city. One
Of Mr.. Bander's objects in coming to this
section was to look up a good location
to start a glove factory. 1t is to be an
extensive plant, representing an invest
ment of about 100000, aud will give
employment to about 100 hands. He
discussed the matter with Mr.. G. M.
Dahl and others, and seems very favor
ably impressed with Bismarck. He
looked over the brewery building and
grounds, while here, and expressed him
self as pleased with them as a place for
