A NORTH DAKOTA correspondent to
the Minneapolis Tribune calls attention
to the fact that if the representation of
last year is repeated in making the ap-
portionment of delegates from counties
to the republican state convention
eighteen counties will lose 10 delegates:
twelve will gain SO: while in nine there
will be no change. This would result
in decrease of two in the representa-
ton from this county. Pembina would
lose one, Walsh four and Grand Forks
nine, Similar results are figured all
through the Red River Valley counties
until the thinly populated counties ~
ing west of the James river are reached.
This all indicates that the faction OF the
republican party from the Missouri slope
are likely to control the next state con
vention. This will cause the leaders at
the Forks and Fargo to make hard faces
at the capitol gang and insures the
practical capitulation of the antis to
the resubmissionists.

trade Of the orient has already benefit

fact the entire country. Minneapolis
mi!lers state that already to the increase
in price of wheat of cents per bushel.
One man in China has recently placed
an order with Minneapolis millers for
100000 barrels of flour. The millers Of
Minneapolis are now buying wheat in
Oklahoma and Kansas. thus showing
the trend of shipments of wheat. When
the flour trade of the orient is fully de-
veloped the market will be frmer. and
prices will be higher for long time to
come. Mr.. Hill states that this pur-
chase of the Burlington is good thing
for the people OF North Dakota and by
reason of the increased ease With which
soft coal can be shipped to North Da-
kota the price of hard coal has fallen off
q notch or so.
