Gus and willing to rid the city OF
such filthy dens and put their
shoulders to the wheel and boost
along the chariot of law and order.
The papers of that city are engaged
In kiad of a mud singing contest
and at this distance it is hard to tell
which side is telling the truth, at the
same time it looks as though the
saloon element was getting desper-
ate if the means they use to boost
their campaign are anything to go
by. May the best side win.

Neal Dow Social,

The Neal Dow social given under tho
auspices Of the w. C. +. U. at the court
house last Monday evening, was mark
ed success both socially and fnancia-
lily, and large crowd gathered to honor
the grand old patriot who had done 50
much good for the cause of prohibition.
For ninety years Gen. Neal Dow has
devoted his entire time to forwarding
this great cause and his success was
plainly shown by the prohibition states
represented there that evening. The
program was opened by nice selection
from the band after which Rev. .. P.
ChampIin offered up prayer Following
the prayer c. T. Whidden sang IN ap-
propriate solo in his usual excellent
manner Mrs. j. N Brown, president
of the w. c.. T U. then delivered q
patti lotto address, eulogistic of Gen.
Neal Dow and the progress of prohibl-
ton. The male quartette followed
with selection and was followe 4
by a recitation by George Berg, who
did very we'll indeed. Next came
the prohibition states with brief his
tory of each, represented by young
ladies, nicely and prettily csstumed fer
the occasion. Maine was represented
oy Miss Nellie Brown; Kansas by Miss
Laura Retzlaff; Iowa by Miss Mabel
Newberry; New Hampshire by Miss
Tony Retzlaff; Vermont by Miss Mabel
Champlin; Indian Territory by Miss
Florance Haskell, and the twin states.
North and South Dakota, by the little
four year olds-Maude Trubshaw and
Lillian Blackwell Each young lady
was dressed in white with red. white
and blue sashes and each wearing a
golden crown on which was printed
the name of the state they represented.
Mrs. Carleton followed with a reading.
"Prohibition as a Principle" and the
Us followed with a song, ''The 7 is
marching on" Gen. Neal Dew, re-
presented by Rev. F. K. Enslin, was
then presented by the president, and he
briefly stated the trials and hardships
experienced in his early work for pro-
hlbition. The male quartette again ap-
peared, and sang fine piece. This
quartette was immense and we ought
to have been favored with moro OF
them. Mrs. Cowen followed the quar-
tette by a reading, "After Many Days.
and the band gave another selection.
then the supper was announced, In
which everybody took a very earnest
and active part. This concluded tho
entertainments. The receipts of the
evening were something over Sl5.

he would employ three Or four men,
some of them good musicians and in
case he would locate here we would

Gen. Coxey's commonweal army
does not seem to be gaining much
strength at present. He named his
camp Scamp Peffer," and when his
followers we're told of it they deserted
in great numbers. His followers did
not object to wading in slush and
mud and sleeping upon mother
earth, but they do object to having
any PETER in theirs. Cexey could
add to his army if he would send a
recruiting sergeant to Cooperstewn.

The Easter service in the Baptist
church Sunday evening was very inter-
esting. The choir rendered some very
fine Easter music. There were two exc
ercises by she girls. one Of then. by
seven entitled 1.-The Myhr Bearers
each one carrying an Easter lily. The
other BY seven little girls dressed in
white each one holding a gilt letter all
reading He is Risen" In this exercise
two of the little girls had 10 double up
on the recitations on account Of tho
sickness Of Maude Trubshaw who was
unable to take her part. Little Lottie
Jimeson did remarkably we'll in this
exercise. Tho decorations were very
tasty. Back of the platform was a
large circle, with the inscription ~ am
the Resurrection and the Life" and X
Know that My Redeemer I.iveth."
Within this circle was large gilt cross,
With BUNCH of Easter lilies in the
middle. On the platform was beauti-
ful array of potted plants. The pastor
preached short sermon appropriate
to the OCCASION.
The lyceum on Thursday evening of
last week WAS not very we'll attended
and the only thing of interest was the
debate on the question Resolved that
The National Banks should b. abolished.
The affirmative was ably supported BY
Messrs Bartlett and Andrew johnson,
who urged that they were unjust. un-
safe and unwise. The negative was
supported by Messrs Champlin and
Warner who set forth what they
though. were the many excellent fea-
lures of this system, and showed tho
confidence ~ of tho people in it, and
while admitting the defects of the sys-
tenn thought they could he remedietR
without abolishlng it, The judges,
Messrs. Glass, Brown and Anderson,
decided against them and for their
abolshment. With this session the w.
ceum closed for the season. All bills
were paid, and the small surplus w&s
voted to the janitor, after motion was
lost to send it on to Washington fer
Uncle Sam to use to help the admins
tration in its sore distress. There have
been ten sessions IN all, with an expense
of some S25. The lyceum has been =
good thing in that it provided a weekly
place of resort where entertaining in
structlon and good music have been
freely dispensed. The debates, query
box and paper were tho most popular
exercises. Too few Of the young men
and women were represented on its
programs. We hope another soasen
will record marked improvement in
| this particular.

The Banner State.

The department Of agriculture
shows that the r-capita value Of the
crops of corn, wheat and oats, in
North Dakota in 1898, excels some
of the lest states as follows: Min
ne>ota $37, Iowa $40, Nebraska
$50, Kansas 500, South Dakota
$o2, North Dakota $12o. The
per- capita value of horses, cattle,
sheep and hogs, in February 1894
according to the same authority,
stood as follows: Minnesota SAG;
Kansas $50, Nebraska Sol, South
Dakota $Io9, North Dakota STA,
Iowa S116.
Nature intended North Dakota
to be the banner agricultural state
OF the Union, and it is seen from the
figures given above that, despite the
hard times and set backs, our state
has forged ahead Of all the recog'
nized agricultural states. 1t stands
at the head, and probably always
will, since it has the best and most
productive soil IN the world.
1t is in these hard times thai
North Dakota is able to appreciate
best its advantages. While wan'
and idleness are forced upon Other
communities it is unknown in oul
state among our own people. In
fact our poor houses, where there
are any, are empty, and charity is :
thing scarcely ever called for. Nertf
Dakota is truly, the banner state
Commonwealth.
