MAY EFFECT A COMPROMISE
Contractors and Carpenters Hay
Come 10 m Agreement

All OF the contractors engaged in the
various constructive trades in this city
will meet tonight IN the room OF the Mas
ter Builders association IN the Fourth
National bank building. and it is given
out aUthOritatively that steps viii he
taken that will end the carpenters strike
before the end OF the week and that the
100 carpenters now out viii go 70 work
next Monday morning. IN all probability
the agreement between the strikers and
the contractors will ne for one year.
w. J.. 4. Johnson, state labor commits
sioner, will be present and make an ad-
dress and Will advocate the appointment
of q committee from the master builders
TO confer with the committee from the
Carpenters Union and adjust the differ
ences between them.
Last week the contractors were very
strong in their utteraEces against the
Union and refused to treat with them in
any way: but it seems that most Of them
have thought better of their action and
are willing To effect a compromise.
They say. however, that they VIII re-
serve the right 10 employ both Union
and nom Union men when of equal abil-
ity. and viii give the Union scale for
eight hours.
Some Of the contractors claim that they
do not want to sign this agreement unless
all of the trades contractors do so, as
Il would allow the non-Union men 70
under-bid them on contracts, and this
would prevent the strictly Union men
from getting work for their men

stitution and bylaws viii bring In its

Bismarck Tribune: Advlces from
Devils Lake indicate that Senator
H~ansbrough is having easier sailing
in his own county than he has had for
years. Strange as it may seem the
fountain head Of all opposition to Mr..
H%ansbrough during his political ca
reer has been in his own county, but
it has been of such a nature and so
well understood throughout the state,
his friends elsewhere have not fall
tered in their loyalty to him and as a
result the state has in the senior sena-
tor a man Of twelve years experience
in congress; has, through the rapid
changes in the personnel of the upper
body during the last six years, one of
the old senators-one whose seniority
places him in line for the very best
positions on the committees of the SEN
ate. He is now a member of the fin
ance committee, which recognition
North Dakota might not receive again
in many years through a new mem
Der, no matter how able. Other sec
tions of the state, if they could boast
of the nom of a United States sena-
tor, who stands as we'll as Senator
Hansbrough, would be proud to honor
him and make life pleasant for him
and it is quite beyond the comprehen-
sion of the people Of the state gener-
ally that the Devils Lake region should
be an exception.

REPUBLICAN G K
Legislative Ticket
GEO. w. II. V
CHARLES H. BAKER
H. r. ASLAKSON.
H CONVENTION.

Inc Republlcan county convention
last Saturday performed a great SER
vice to the people of Ramsey county,
and the state for that matter. 1t was
a thoroughly representative and highly
respectable gathering of men, who ap-
parently knew their business. The
legislative ticket nominated could not
have been excelled. Messrs. Davis,
Baker and Aslakson are strong men,
fully alive to the interests Of the
county and the state. They should
have every Republican vote in Ramsey
county in November.
AS to the character of the campaign
leading up to the convention the Inter
Ocean greatly regrets that Judge
Cowan and his managers seemed to
think it was necessary for them to
resort to the most violent acoustic ms
against honored and honorable people.
Judge Cowan himself canvassed the
county day and night and to those who
would not listen to him he made
charges and used arguments wholly
unworthy of one holding SO high a
Judicial position. But the Inter
Ocean now proposes to leave Mr.
Cowan in the hands of his friends.
His official and political actions,
which have been so peculiarly inter
mingled and intermixed, are Of no
further concern to us.
We are satisfied that the Republi-
can convention, having plainly init
mated to Mr.. Ccwan that he ought to
attend strictly to his judicial duties,
for which purpose he was elected
has done the proper thing. Not only
that; it has performed a service to the
community and in reality has render
ed MI. Cowan a service as we'll. He
ought to thank the convention for the
wholesome lesson which it has taught.
A good deal was said last week, and
is being said now by certain parties,
about how Hansbrough bought the
convention The Inter- Ocean calls
the attention of it's readers to the list
of delegates who participated in the
Saturdays convention. Look the
names over carefully and then say
whether the class Of men who deter
mined the result belong to the puchas-
able kind. The methods by which
the nominations were made in the con-
vention were not the methods which
certain parties adopted in carrying
the First ward in this city.

"The people Of this county will no
doubt repeat their course Of 1896, when
MI. Hansbrough was beaten in his
own county by a nice VOTE"
The above is from Judge Cowan's
organ. Are we to understand that
the organ and it's friends propose to
bolt the nominations Of last weeks

temper Of the c%onventioni it is the pur-
pose Of Republicans in Ramsey county

Very few mistakes we're made. "A
noticeable feature was that no scholar

The essay with yaledictory on Pro
gressa ana Inventions Of the Nine
teenfh Century, w William Messner,
of Casselton, wAs we'll delivered.
After speaking Of the great advance
made il the arts and sciences, he
dwelt'upon the edncationaal advances,
Especiallysof the schools for th1e, deaf.
S'In 700 there was hot 4 single school
for the deaf in tlA whole country
while the old wxixd had not more than
half a dozen ssGtapoools for the deaf.
During the past hundred years many
schools for the deaf and The. blind have
been established in all civilized
countries and now the number Of the
schools, including day schools and
private schools, aggregates one huns
dred and fifteen with an enrolment Of
over twelve thousand scholars. ne
deaf have shown in many cases yha,
they can do as we'll as hearing PEI
ple." He then delivered a very touch
ing v~aledictory, bidding farewell to
the superintendent, teachers and
school, and EXPRESSING the hope that
they would not be disappointed in the
graduates.
Hon. O.. A. Boynton, of jamestown,
president of the board, presented the
diplomas.
The hymn by Olgo Anderson was
beautiful and delivered by a particu-
larly sweet Miss.
Benediction by Rev. Waddle closed
the exercises.
Two Of the graduates, Miss Lemke
and Mr.. Messne1, took the entrance
examinations to Gallandet college,
and expect to go to Washington and
enter that educational institution this
fall.
The school for the deaf of North
Dakota is yet in it's infancy, but
it has grown to be a magnificent
institution in the twelve years of it's
existence. In 1890 it began it's work
in a small frame building on Fifth
street in Devils Lake. Not long
after this the present superintendent
D. F. Bangs was appointed to take
charge of the school, while MI.
Bangs wife was chosen matron.
Under the care of these two people
who have united their untiring
energy, the school though a small one,
is n of the leading institutions of
it's kind in point Of education in the
country. That Mr.. and M rs. Bangs
have only the interest of the school
at heart is apparent in many ways,
but especially is this noticeable in
the mutual affection existing between
scholar and superintendent and
matron. The affection equals that of
parent and child. The utmost care
is given the scholar at the school,
and the superintendent accompanies
the children to their homes on the
train, or until he knows they will
arrive safely. To him.is chiefly due
the success of the School for the Deaf
of North Dakota.
