A FESTIVE DAY.

Grafton News and Times: A fes-
tive day there will be at the Chautau-
qua on the occasion of the state press
associations meet July 7th and Sth.
Imbued with the spirit of posey,
the committee in charge, has appro-
priately selected the low, soft breezes
of Devils Lake, where to WOO gentle
rest for the weary Knights of the pen
holder. The gentle winds of western
sea will drive away dull care from the
brow of the thinkers and merry laugh
ter sandwiched with eloquence and
music will beguile the time and prefer
welcome respite, sweeter and more
soothing than the balm Of Gileador the
mysterious hatchis, in vain search of
which the count Of Monte Christie OBJ
jured all earthly happiness and wealth.
Aside from these natural invigorating
influences for the soul, very classical
program generally has been arranged.
Oratory will be dished up = la carte
and those preferring to hear some
thing else, will be regaled with stories
from the most approved sources. Al
though several editors have declared
themselves in favor Of resubmission,
only soda water will be tolerated and
no jag wagons will be chartered for
the occasion. Those desiring to enter
the creased pig race must correspond
at once with the genial superintendent.

FARMERS EXCURSION.
It Will Leave Devils Lake on Fri
day, July 18th.

In accordance with his usual custom
Mr.. j. J. Hill will transport free so
Ramsey county farmers to the Agri
cultural college at Fargo and return
on July 18th. Mr.. Kaeding at Penn
was authorized to select 10 delegates,
Milt Crary 10 and S. J. Small 80.
Our custom has been to choose the first
30 persons who applied and the same
method was adopted this year. Two
days after the announcement of the
excursion was made the thirty names
were handed in, and they have been
coming steadily ever since.
Nearly all the late comers have ex-
pressed a willingness to pay reason
able fare for the round trip if one
could be secured, and Mr.. Small
promised them to take the matter up
with Gen. Whitney of the passenger
department of the Great Northern and
endeavor to secure half fare rate for
this occasion. Wednesday evening
Mr.. Whitney wired that he would
grant half fare rate, provided SO OF
more excursionists could be secured.
It's up to the farmers now.
If you want to accompany the far
mers' excursion at O'Clock on Fri
day, July 18th, visit the experimental
farms of the agricultural college, and
receive the benefit of the explanations
given by the professors in all branches
of farming and stock raising, at one
half the regular rate for the round
trip, send in your name to the Inter
Ocean at once.
There are no conditions to be COM
piled with in order to get this rate,
other than handing in your name be-
fore the date set for the excursion to
leave. The free excursion is limited
to those who have not attended before.
The half rate does not exclude any
body, There must be at least sc
tickets sold in order to get the rate,
and it is necessary that you hand in
your name soon. Everybody and his
wife-or best girl-can go on this ex
cursion-one fare for the round trip
See your neighbor about it-get W
a party in each township and send il
the names to the Inter Ocean. W,
would like to secure two or thre,
hundred excursionists and take pos
sesson Of properly. A gooG
time is assured-and the practica:
knowledge to be gained from q visit
to the college farms will be worth
many times more than the cost of the
trip

improvements assured for next
year
New thoroughly modern passenger
depot.
New 20stall round house.
The Great Northern will make
many improvements at Devils Lake
this year, and the work has already
commenced. The first thing will be
the removal of the passenger station
200 feet west of the present location.
1t was reported last week that the
depot was to be removed to the foo1
of Fourth street, but the official blue
print shows that it will be located q
little south and east of the west end
of Third street. The freight depot
will be moved to the present location
of the passenger station. One of the
most conspicuous changes to be made
will be the removal of all the elevators
to the north side of the track to-
point east Of where the freight depot
now stands. The elevators are now
being emptied Of their contents and
the work Of removal will begin at once.
Several miles of new side track will
also be laid. There will be two new
tracks 5000 feet long and all the pres
ent side tacks will be made the same
length. A new lead track 5000 feet
long on which passenger trains will be
run will be built, also 3,O0O-foot in
dustrial track for the elevators. A
new loading and transfer platform
several hundred feet long is to be ad-
ded to the present equipment of the
yards. One of the important i'm
provements will be the erection of
new and commodious stock yards. A
half mile west of the passenger depot

be remodeled so as to accommodate
the larger engines now running on
this division. Agent Kipp says there
are now positive assurances that next
year thoroughly modern passenger
depot will be built, also new 90

be built now were it not for the fact
that there is too much other work re-
quiring immediate attention.

Smalley and Frank Denmond reached
Fargo this morning from Montana and
will join the Devils Lake team here
tomorrow. The players are said to be
a fast aggregation and comprise two
pitchers, catcher and two infielders.
They will make the disorganized LAX
ers look like pennant winners and
there'll be something doing in the
Northern League pretty soon The
Devils Lake fans are dissatisfied with
the showing this year, especially after
winning the pennant last season, and
the management is determined to win
again if money will secure good men,

It is now being told to the In.
jury of e. o. Bower, by some PEG.
pie of the opposite faith, that 1t will
not do to elect him to the Office of
mayor because he Is identified with
a branch of the Standard Oil com
pany. They argue that when Mr..
Beasley wanted to get franchise
for piping natural gas into the city,
that councilman Brown opposed
granting any other company gas
right, and they said he did this be-
cause he Is an employee of the
Standard OH company. The same
men who oppose Bower voted for
Brown. But these men re
member that Mr.. Bower Is
a democrat. If he owned
the Standard OH Co., soul and
body, he would always be opposed
to giving anything or any company
a monopoly. That Is the way he
was raised and believes. But with
Republicans It's different. Take
our county assessor. He Is Re-
publican, pure and unadulterated.
He never voted any other ticket.
He was not an employee of the
Standard Oil Co. when elected, bat
he Is now, or was until a very short
time since. So It's better to elect
men In the employ of the Standard
than 1t Is to elect Republicans
who are not, and then have
them employed. It's cheap.

Some people may doubt this but
Its true. We challenge anybody
to show one instance where a
county officer who was a Demo
crat has been bought In this county.
There has been none. We are the
people to save the country and the
city.

always noted for Its mugwump

lines. When congress assembled,
the maj ority was evidently deter
mined that the. tariff should not be
touched at all. and that even the
remaining war taxes should not be
very materially lowered. But the
treasury surplus Is already so uE-
warrantedly large and Is increasing
so rapidly and steadily that a fall
ure to reduce taxes would invite a
degree of popular indignation not
to be contemplated without
serious misgivings. The cash
balance on hand Is now little
short of $3.50. 900, ooo, exclusive of
the $4,000. 900, gold reserve In
the redemption department. And
the receipts are still exceeding the
expenditures at the rate of about
$S4, 900, 900 year, the surplus for
the seven months since the first of
July having been $S4, 100000. 1t
is announced now on competent
authority that the likelihood Is the
war taxes as a whole, with minor
exceptions. will be repealed.
Mr.. Payne, chairman of the ways
and means committee. Is among
those who are understood to have
become finally convinced that the
situation, political and fiscal, war
rants and demands a step of this
character. It's wisdom will In
time be demonstrated. Commodity
prices are so high as to cause gen.
eral complaint among wage earners
Unnecessary taxation not only
tends to make them higher, but is
an additional burden on Its own &C
count.

Commenting on the Views ex.
pressed by Speaker Henderson as
to the tariff mutiny of Mr.. Babcock,
of Wisconsin, the Washington Star,
= a very intelligent independent pa
per, asks pertinent question well
worth quoting. 1t Is as follows:
Gas Mr.. Henderson presents the
matter, there Is no hope of tariff re-
vision from the Republican party
until evils are so oppressive and
widely extended they cannot longer
be borne. In that day will the
country be likely to intrust the
the work to the Republican party !?
Does not that proposition make the
Republican party the fosterer Of
tariff evils?"
The Stars summary of the anti.
revision argument Is fair, and the
question which Is drawn from 1t un.
avoidable. 1t Is Idle to pretend
that the present tariff schedules are
to be retained permanently and as a
matter of tact 1t Is not pretended.
The plea of the anti.revision Re-
publicans-for 1t Is not really an
arguments simply "Not now,
not now" But when? II a mod.
crate and equitable tariff revision
cannot be undertaken without bus
mess disturbance now, with the
President and both houses of con-
gress Republican; with the con-
trolling revisionists all protection
lists and Republicans; with an over
flowing treasury-if 1t cannot be
accomplished even with positive
com nercial advantage now, the
suspicious time will never come,
and the next revision, when 1t does
eventually /precipitate itself, may
bea violent one, by the protection
doctrines ayowed enemies.
The administration should ask
itself what the Star asks, whether
there Is not danger that when the
revolt against maintaining uu-
nessary rates of duty reaches the
proportions Of control In the coun-
try the people will turn to the
Democratic party, even at a risk,
to give them what they want.
