In referring to the nomination
Of E. w. Camp, formerly of James
town, for the legislature of this dis
trict, the Los Angeles, Cal, newspapers
say it was a defeat for the estate
house ring" and an unexpected turn
in the convention. Mr.. Camps
nomination was won on close fight,
he having just enough votes to nomin-
ate. The district has a normal re-
publican majority of about 300 and
casts vote of about 5000. Mr.. Camp
naturally expects to be elected, and
his many North Dakota friends hope
that he will be. His experience in the
state constitutional convention Of
North Dakota and his ability as a
lawyer will make his services of speci-
al value to his constituents and should
give him a state reputation as a man
well qualified to do good service in the
administration of the affairs of any
state. It was a special compliment to
the nominee that he was nominated in
the home district of Gov. Gage, whose
machine endeavOred to secure the
choice Of another man.

Monday, Labor Day, was a legal
holiday so far as the United States
was concerned, but our county officers
decided that it was not legal holiday
so far as they were concerned, conse-
quently they were all doing business
at the old stand. The reason for this
conflict in opinion was because Gov.
White was too busy to issue a pro-
clamation making it a legal holiday in
this state and the law being passed
since the last session of the legislature
it has not been incorporated in our
code as a legal holiday. Probably it
will be made legal holiday by the
next legislature then it won't matter
If it does slip the governors mind,
see!

DEMURRAGE.
Charges Will Be Instituted
As Usual on the Rail.
Roads this Fall.
Two Dollars will be Charged
Per Car Held More Than
Twenty.four Hours.

'The fall grain movements from the
Dakotas and western Minnesota to
the elevators and -four mills Of the
head of the lakes, will begin this
week, +" said a prominent railroad man
to Call representative yesterday,
''and the northern lines that handle
much of this traffic have decided to
put into effect Sept. l the system OF
demurrage charged, which it is their
custom to enforce rigidly each year in
order to expedite the loading and un-
loading of cars by shippers and con-
signees.
Beginning at that date and con.
tinuing till further notice, a charge OF
q will be made on each car held more
than twenty-four hours. The rule will
apply to all stations not covered by a
local car service association. The
lines will place the distribution of cars
among the various stations in the
hands of the division superintendent
as far as possible. Distribution to
stations will be made in proportion to
the daily average shipments of grain
from such stations. Applications
for cars will be filled in the order in
which they are filed, one car to each
applicant, afterwards, in proportion
to the amount of grain offered and
awaiting shipment by each shipper.
Loading must be compile ted within
twenty-four hours after the car is de-
livered. All untitled orders for cars
will expire 6 O'Clock each Saturday
night, when orders must be renewed.
By these of other stringent rules the
railroads hope to keep grain moving
constantly, using the cars to the best
advantage and doing away in a large
measure, with the danger of car
shortage. Call.

Riot and bloodshed has resulted
from the big coal strike and there are
Indications that the break will come
soon. The country is short on hard
coalhnd is about time that heroic meas
ures are taken to end the strike. The
sympathy of a majority Of the people
are undoubtedly with the miners but
it does not look as if they would win,
In the meantime they are big losers up
to date, while the operators have a
chance to get back at the public by
boosting up the price of coal.

.'Uncle Pete'' Hepburn, one of Iowas
wheel horses in congress, tells the
people of Washington that, in his
Judgment, the democrats propose to
make the issue this fall, as far as it is
possible, one of complaint and pessim-
ism.
"The democrats will deny our pres
ent era of prosperity" he says: 81
heard William j. Bryan talk a few
days ago. He referred to the existing
condition as that of seeming pros
perity.' He was speaking in county
populated by $4,000 people. The
banks of that county had within their
Golfers at that very time he was speak
ing, the total sum of 81, 752, 600. That
sum averaged about $40 for every
person In the county. This talk of
seeming prosperity in the face of
