j. p. Baker, Democratic national COM
mitteeman from North Dakota. passed
through the city yesterday on his way
East. Regarding tie candidacy Of Adj
niral Dewey for the presidency Mr.. Ra-
ker said: 81 believe Admiral Dewey's an
nouncement will be b good thing for the
party. Instead Of tile nomination being
an empty honor, the Democratic nominal
ton now means something When the
East presents a candidate it signifies that
they still have faith In the Democrat ic
party. / believe the Kansas City con-
vention will be oneuof the largest and
most enthusiastic ever held in the coun-
try a.
Discussing the great tide of immigra-
ton which is now finding its way Dakota
ward Mr.. Baker said: "PeopIe who have
for years rented high-priced lands in Iowa
and Illinois are coming to North Dakota
and buying land all the way from 81 to IS
per acre. Previously they paid rents of
about So per acre per annum, and also
gave up. half their crop as well as fur
nishing the seed. It can be seen that only
by the hardest sort of effort could any
man under these circumstances get ahead.
A few of these farmers moved TO North
Dakota last year, and this year thousands
are taking up land in the Flickertail
state. Unlike the immigrant of the past.

front Of the business place Of his
father. One of the crackers was 1T
and thrown into the street, but failed
to explode. The stem having burned
out Franchi decided to make what he
termed a "sizzcr" He touched q
match to its powder, but was unable
to step back quick enough and it eX-
ploded in his face.
He was carried into Musgrave's drug
store, where DIR. Raymond dressed the
burns. The boys face was terribly
burned. The doctor was unable to as
certain fully last night the extent of
his injuries. An eye specialist was
hastily summoned and will try to save
the boys eye sight.

used in adapted songs, when some applause was
heard. As the programme came TO an end the
audience all retired to the rcfreshmcnt rooms,
whore a neat sum was realized by the church.
