consistency thou art a jewell! A
few weeks ago this same editor was
booming a movement to openly defy
the law and throw open the saloons.
Its columns were devoted to nothing
else. After the Argus saw that the
people resented the idea, it turns
around and is now filling its columns
by abusing the mayor and city
council. If the editor of the Argus
feels so bad at the presence of blind
pigs in Fargo, why don'the complain

There is plan being introduced
by the grain men by which the com
ing wheat crop may be moved under
the present financial stringency. The
plan is for the grain men to issue
their checks to the farmers payable
in fifteen days after date, thus allow
ing them to make collections on
drafts against consignments. Allow
ing this to be a plausible plan and
although it is being adopted in some
parts, we are of the opinion that the
farmer had better ship his own grain
and make his own collections.
Wheat is cash and as long as the
farmer has his wheat or the railroad
company's receipt for it he is not in
very bad shape, for either will pay
his debts where checks would be
questioned. Unless the grain men
can secure the payment of their
checks, as the farmer must secure his
creditors, We dc. not think this plan
will be adopted very. generally

Railroad Commissioner Rasmu

Railroad Commissioner Rasmus-
sen, says the Hillsboro Herald, who
claims to have travelled all over the
state-and he has in a Northern Pa
ci6c upholstered car-says that in
his opinion Barnes county promises
better than any county in the state,
and thinks Barnes will average about
10 bushels to the acre. Mr.. Ras-
mussen means we'll, no doubt, but he
either has some Barnes county farms
for sale or he passed through the rest
of the state in the darkness of night.
Barnes county, as matter of fact,
is about the poorest off Of any coun-
ty in the state. Why Gr,ggs county,
tor the same amount of land in crop
will produce twice as much grain
this year as Barnes county. Our
railroad commissioner is "talking

Tae men engaged in the sheep in
dustry out in Stark, Billings, Hettin-

without regard to previous condition
of party politics, held meeting in
Dickinson the other day and peti-
toned our delegation in the national
congress and fellow congressman to
continue the protection on wool
afforded by the present tariff law. In
the preliminary they recite that '.the
prevailing uncertainty concerning
the retention of the present tariff on
wool has plainly indicated the wide
spread disaster which would attend
the actual removal of that tariff, and
as sheep owners and citizens Of the
state of North Dakota we deprecate
free trade congressional action with
Its inevitable effect of crushing this
new industry of the state. ."-James-

There is one thing we are truly
grateful for, and that is the excellent
mail service we have been having
under this administration for the

three Fargo Argus in one night, and
about every other night we get about
half the mail we should get. The

From such symptoms at the capital as

r. F. Pickert, of Pickert, was in
St. Paul the other day and in an in
terview with a Pioneer Press report
er said: "The state is attracting a
better class of immigrants than ever
before. 1t is common sight now
to see party of them arriving in the
state. Almost every immigrant that
comes to us sooner or later sends
home for father or son, and they in
turn send for other relatives. In
this way we are getting frst-class
immigration. These people are a
prolific source of wealth to the coun-
try. Apart from the wealth they
produce after they arrive, 1 am salts
fed that upon an average they bring
$3.50 apiece into the country, which
means that a thousand brings to
America $4,000 in hard cash. 1t
seems to me that no legal obstacles
should be placed in the way of i'm
migration.
We farm 1o,1oo acres and our
crops are good. Ten bushels to the
acre is profitable crop. for wheat.
This year our wheat will run seven
teen bushels to the acre. Of course
there have been years when the yield
was much greater. Our barley and
oats are good. Straw is a little
short, but grass is plentiful, and
farmers who have young stock will
be able to turn them out tat in the
spring"

Jamestown Fire.

JAMESTOWN, Aug. l3.-[Special Tele.
gram to Fargo Argus. AFTER three
honrs' stubborn fighting with fierce
flames, carried along by II high wind,
this city was saved from Il repetition of
Fargo's disaster this afternoon. The
fire started in the old rink on the west
side of Fifth avenue, corner of second
street, and soon lgnited the large three
story brick Capitol hotel. The walls of
this building had not yet fallen in when
Mrs. Nelson's residence caught fire and
minute later the Metropolitan block,
three story brick, was blazing to the
roof. The Daily Capital Office in the
basement is total loss. The armory
of Co. H. was in this building, but AL
the arms and uniforms were saved.
The explosion of ammunition caused
general confusion and drove back the
crowd.
The fire swept on to Banker Lloyd's
magnificent residence, leveling it to the
ground. Lloyd's big barn f,red the
same fate, being followed by Jasses
Herbert's house and barn. Sam Viii.
dei's new cottage and Alderman
Blood's residence escaped, but four
barns in the same locality were des.
troyed. They belonged to Hodge,
Mitchell, Kurth and Fuld. This COM
pleted the fires pathway to the river on
the west side of Fifth avenue.
Up town every effort was being made
to confine the blaze to the west side
and while the task looked hopeless for
n time the fire boys won the victory.
Help from, the insane asylum and the
Northern Pacific round house, with the
active work of the citizens, saved the
whole east side of the street. The
Barnes clock, Mrs. Neihauser's house,
Lloyd's tenement house and Judd's
photograph gallery were several times
on fire, however, and the fronts badly
damaged. The heat was intense and
the wind blowing gale, but the fire
department showed good discipline and
the water supply from the artesian we'll
helped them avert an awful conffagr:..
ton. A lot of furniture was saved and
the streets were full of drays. men,
women and children, carrying house
hold goods to places of safety. Tonight
Company H is patrolllng the streets to
protect property.
The tre is supposed to have been
started by tramps sleeping in the loft of
the old rink, as when discovered it was
leaping out of the roof, One man has
been arrested on suspicion and the city
authorities are on tho lookout for the
guilty parties. Much indignation pre-.
walls and a general raid is to be made
on the horde of tramps infesting the
city.
Capitol house was newly built last
year; loss, $50, 900; insurance, $4,000.
The total loss is about $4,000, with
insurance nearly half that amount
The Alliance Hail Insurance company
Offices were burned. There was no
loss of life, but several persons narrsw.
ly escaped accident.
