Masked robbers held up a
Northern Pacific train three
miles east of Moorhead Sunday
night. The robbers cut the mail
coach and engine from the rest
of the train and compelled the
engineer under the cover of a
revolver, to run his engine and
mail coach pretty nearly into
Moorhead. The robbers did not
get very much money and were
either great bunglers or were
ratified as they did not touch the
express car at all. United States
and other officials are hunting up
the robbers but so far have not
got them. 1t was a very bold
robbery.

The mention of Hon. David
Bartlett for governor by the
Courier two weeks ago seems to
have struck a popular chord and
many of the editors have been
saying some pleasant things of
our townsman. Let the better
element of the party work for a
man of this stamp for governor
and stand shoulder to shoulder
in one solid phalanx and there is
no question but what the anti
machine element can nominate
the next governor and the next
set of state officers easily. What
is wanted is organization and
more attention paid to the pri-
maries in the caucuses and con-
ventions.

Those who attended the late
fair at jamestown can testify
that that place was dry" and no
mistake. The contrast between
this last fair and the one held
two years ago was very great
with the balance in favor of the
fair held last week. There was
no gambling or drinking
on the grounds and so far
as we could Judge the
attendance was just as large.
There was a great deal of kick
ing by the .'wets" on account of
the dryness, but that is to be ex-
pected. The fair for once was a
decent place to go to.

It is most noticeable and
commendable fact that scarcely
a republican paper in the state
has failed to frankly express the
demand that republican state
officials directly charged with
specific acts of recreancy in Office
shall refute the charge. We say
commendable because in not one
instance has there been any in
dication of other than kindly
sentiments towards the officials,
but only a desire to know the
truth, let the consequences strike
whom they will, and this course
in the republican press evidences
a most commendable independ-
ence of party strings" when
fidelity to party pledges and the
public welfare are involved.
Such independence has never ex-
listed to such a general extent be-
fore, and it augurs a most health
full condition of public sentiment.
All remember how unanimous

point they spent their second winter.
They fought great deal with hostile
Indians on returning and experienced
more difficulty in going home than in
advancing westward. Lewis was
wounded before home was reached by
by the accidental discharge OF gun.
Finally, after an absence OF two
years, the expedition returned, the
leaders reaching Washington while
congress was in session. Grants of
land were Immediately made to the ex-
plorers and their subordinates. Cap
tain Lewis was also rewarded by be-
ing chosen governor Of Missouri.
Clark was appointed brigadier general
for the territory of the upper Louisi-
ana and in 1918 war made governor
OF Missouri. On the whole the Lewis
and Clark expedition was one of the
most successful during the period of
exploration.

conventions of last year were in
turning down undesirable and
unworthy North Dakota politi-
clans and leaders," and how
generally it was trusted aud sup,
posed that only men who would
faithfully carry out the party's
solemn pledges to the people had
been nominated. Those party
pledges were right, and the peo-
pie of North Dakota want and
will have them carried out to the
letter. Nothing can be more
certain than that the party will
renew and further emphasize
those pledges next year. and if
any officials nominated last year
have proven recreant to their
trust the people have q right to
know it, that the republican
party may put them aside as un-
worthy the trust reposed in
them. The republican party it.
self must do these things in
order to be able to present 10 the
people next year just claims to
their continued support. and it
is most eminently right for the
republican papers of the state to
insist upon hearing from all
officials whose alleged unfaithful-
ness has brought a shadow of
distrust over the party. The
officials who will choose to ignore
these kindly meaning but earnest
and righteous demands must do
so at their own peril.-Grand

the rise in wheat will enable the
farmers to pay their interest

to all agricultural products?"

Doings of the Convention.

Mr.. EDITOR:-Perhaps it is not too
late to give few items of the Eighth
Annual Convention of the w G. T.
U. of North Dakota, held in Fargo,
Sept. 1920.
Something over 200 delegates were
in attendance from all parts of the
state. The handsome new edifice of
the. First M. E. church was the favored
meeting place of the convention; it
was tastefully decorated for the occa-
sion. Fargo proved her loyalty to the
temperance cause in the hospitality
and the courtesies shown the visitors.
The Argus and The Forum each gave
liberal space in reporting the proceed
ings of the convention, while most of
the pulpits of the city we're given up
to representatives of the white ribbon
hosts on Sunday morning. Sunday
evening Miss Yates addressed a union
mass meeting on the Modern Hercules.
Those who were wise enough to go to
hear Miss Yates when she spoke in
Cooperstown will know something of
the treat which the convention enjoyed
in listening to three emasterful addresses
from this most attractive and interest
ing speaker. Questionable Winking"
was her subject Friday (when she
spoke for the Y % which sparlkled with
wit and cleaned with truth in crystal
setting. The theme of the annual SER
mon was Eternity" giving ample
proof of Miss Yates power to deal
with the eternal verities confronting
the human race. Her audiences Sun
day afternoon and evening filled all
the available room in the spacious
audience and lecture rooms combined
and many were turned away.
Much encouragement was given the
convention by the many prominent
men who spoke from the platform,
among whom were Judge G. A. Pol
lock, the judge who is a terror to
violators of the prohibition law; Hon.
r. NJ. Pollock, who spoke in behalf of
the enforcement league of the state;
Mr.. A. G Rankin, who has acquired
fame as a temperance advocate and
orator; DR.. Dudley, pastor of the
First Congregational church in Fargo;
Supt. Van Horn of the Baptists, and
many others. Col. Holt was present
and received many hearty words of
commendation for the good work he
has done in the state. The treasurer's
report shows, total receipts for the
year, $1,3O0.95; total disbursements,
81, ,2S6.95, leaving small balance with
which to begin another years work.
The most significant and inspiring
gain, however, is found in the fact
that the organization has received 500
new members during the year just
closed, which entities our state to the
privileges of benefit night at the ma
tional convention (which area part
both in the program and the receipts
of the evening while no mortal power
can estimate the gain to this noble
cause of those 500 new members. The
temperance men and women of North
Dakota ''thank God and take cour-
age" in view of the many encourage
ments shown in the annual summing
up of this unequal conflict with the
allied forces of the traffic that works
destruction. Hon. A G Rankin

The jamestown fair was we'll pat
ronized considering that it was too
early in the season for farmers to get
away, being to busily engaged in
threshing. The stock exhibit was very
meagre, very few animals being on
exhibition. A. A. Booth, of Give,
had splendid exhibit of Short Horn
stock at the fair and of course took
first premium. Mr.. Booth was disap-
pointed that there was not more to
compete with him in the blooded stock
line. He has some of the finest bred
cattle in the United States and among
his herd are several first prize VIM
ners. The agricultural exhibit and
the ladies fancy work exhibit was
very good. The great attraction at
the fair, however. was the races, and
they were frst-class, some fast horses
being entered. Some new buildings
of a substantial nature have been
built by the association and solid
basis for a good fair has been secured.
The management will have to work up
better stock exhibit by offering
large purses.
