THE FAIR A GREAT SUCCESS
Big Crowds, fine Exhibits and Ever, body
Well Pleased Premium Awards.

The Taney County Old Home Picnic
and Fair has passed into history. but
it will long be recalled not only as the
first attempt towards II county fair, but
as Il pronounced success, exceeding the
expectations Of all, and the beginning
OF annual fairs in the county, TO the
good and gain of the county as whole
and OF her citizens individually. The
display made was not only highly
creditable, but in consideration OF the
short time in which IL was organized,
was no less than remarkable; and words
of praise, surprise and satisfaction were
heard on every hand, and especially
from persons here from outside of the
county.
The corn and wheat exhibits could
not well be surpassed, the prize-wheat
weighing respectively 63 and GA pounds
to the bushel of as pretty grain as any
country can produce.
The household departmeutwa was housed
in the court room, was exceedingly at.
tractive and the Mecca of all the ladies
who came to the fair, showing the
abilities of the women Of Taney county
in manner to reflect upon them moth
ing but credit.
The logical sequence OF the gratifying
success of this enterprise is the organiza.
tion of county fair association for the
purpose of holding annual fairs under
such conditions as will secure the
largest and best possible showing OF
the products and resources OF the county,
and so result in the highest attainable
good to all concerned. THE desire for
such an organization was expressed on
every hand during the last two days OF
the fair, and meeting for that pur-
pose will be called for the near future.
Herewith is a list of the premium
awards:

A Close Call.

Saturday evening while on his way
home from kissee Mills B. B. Price
fell from his horse, unconscious, and
lay for considerable time, the horse
remaining beside him, before he re-
gained consciousness. Getting to his
feet, and not being able to remount, he
worked along towards home leading
his horse. His family had been in.
formed by phone OF his departure from
the Mills for home, and as the night
wore on and he failed to appear, sent
out searching party, which met him
on the road between the Barker and
Hughes farms, and conveyed him home,
arriving about midnight. He was In
very precarious condition, but re.
sponded to remedies, and is again able
to be around. 1t was his intention to
have started to Texas Sunday morning
to prosecute the slayer Of his brother
in.law, Claude Beal, but this mischance
disarranged his plans.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,

No one who is acquainted with It's good
qualities can be surprised at the great
popularity of Chamberlain Cough
Remedy. 1t not only cures colds and
grip etfectually and permanently, but
prevents these diseases from resulting
in pneumonia. 1t is also certain cure
for Group. Whooping cough is not
dangerous when this remedy is given.
1t contains no opium or other harmful
substance and may be given as con.
iidently TO baby as to an adult. It is
also pleasant to take. When all OF
these facts are taken into consideration
it is not surprising that people In
foreign lands, as well us at home, es.
TEEN this remedy very highly and
very few are willing TO take any other
after having once used it. For sale by
City drug store.

Cause OF Lockiaw,

Lockjaw, or tetanus, is caused by u
bacillus or germ which exists plentifully
in street dirt. 1t is inactive so long as
exposed TO the air, but when carried
beneath the skin as 10 the wounds
caused by percussion caps or rusty nails,
and when the air is excluded the germ
is reused TO activity and produces the
most virulent poison known. These
germs may be destroyed and all dam
ger OF lockjaw avoided by applying
Chamberlain's Pain Balm freely rs soon
as the injury is received. Pain Balm is
an antiseptic and causes cuts, bruises
and like injuries to heal without mat.

NO BETTER.

In the correspondence and editorial
that we copy from the Minneapolis Tri-
bune, there is fact touched upon that
may be news to many people, which is
that many candidates who might be will
ing to take their chances in primary
election would never presume to appear
before delegated convention, or if they
did they would be turned down with lit
tie ceremony. On the other hand there
are many men who would make excell-
ent candidates that wonld never pay the
fees and make themselves candidates
under the primary forms of selection and
thus appear to seek nominations which
personally they do not desire.
That is, the tendency of the primary
eiection is to multiply poor candidates
and suppress the best men. Any man
who has ever had any experience in
conventions knows that many candidates
are turned down because on consultation
and information that would practically
be impossible among the bulk Of the
voters, these candidates are found to be
unavailable-or worse. ...s .l.
That the convention system is far from
perfect is undeniable, but while primary
election might remedy some ofthe faults,
it, as yet, has too many faults of its own
to say that 1t is any better-and probably
not SO good.

The Times had an editorial last '

The Times had an editorial last week
dealing with the prospective county
nominations. Editor Hager presumes
that the present Register, Auditor, Clerk
of Court and Sheriff will be renominated
without opposition. Judge Wallace, how.
ever, will be opposed by Thos. Wilson
of Drayton. who s'has the pledge of the
Drayton delegation" but ''thereis also a
demand from the western townships that
H. G.. Wick of st. Thomas be nominated
for county judge aud should Mr.. v. allow
the use of his name it is more than likely
that he could land the prize" The
Times also informs us that Supt. Alex.
ander is to be sacrificed by his friends
in the democratic party and that H. A.
Tewell OF St. Thomas is prominently
mentioned as good man for the repub.
llcan nomination. "Many guesses are
also indulged IN as to successor to
Treasurer Anderson" This latter ought
to be easy. Just suggest another St.
Thomas man, Grant.

price of wheat renamed at SO high 6e-
ure for SO long a periodssas during the
last twelve months. This was in face of
the fact that until the last three or four
months it was lmpossiblesto guess the
product of a crop that until that:time was
either in state of immaturity or yet not
seeded. The present crop is now pretty
we'll known and it is agreed by sall ex-
perts thot at best it is notia bumper crop
AT least there is nothing in the present
crop, threshed or to be threshed, to make
lower prices.
But withaI, it is hard telling. The
wheat markets have fashion of going
up or down without much reference to
actual conditions, except Of actual short
age. which in the wide range of wheat
fields on this continent has never yet oc-
Cured. But it is evident that as the
years 60 on, consumption in this country
is. getting closer and closer to the pro-
duction, and it is quite possible for the
expert to see that the time may not be
far distant when we will become import
ers of wheat and flour instead of export
ers.
Itseems to us that only thisI tact can
account for the range of high iprices dur
ing the past year, and as we have said,
there seems to be nothing in this years
surplus to make the prices less.
Wheat was over dollar in the local
county markets last week. Wesmay not
hold this price until our wheat is ready
to sell, but if it will stay above Is cents,
those Pembina county farmers who will
have wheat to sell, and there will be a
good many such in spite of the bad seas
on, will not grumble at the price.

known because they have refused to be
blackmailed. Those of whom the public
have read most during the campaign
have been exploited by corrupt newspap-
ers for pay and the knowledge gained is
untrusty. Honest voters divide their
blind choice as best they can. Now and
then the people can see clearly what
they want and man known to be good
gets majority. But often the vote is
scattered among multitude and some
man the majority or its delegated repre-
sentatives never would think of is chosen
by a'plurality that may not be one-tenth
of the whole vote.
We think the remedy Is to restore the
deliberative representative convention,
retaining the primary law to protect
choice of delegates to it from corruption
or maninulation.

THE OUTLOOK FOR WHEAT.

Just now in North Dakota the farmers
ara looking anxiously at the skies to see
what may happen to the crops. Aa a
whole in this county the crop as it stands
on the ground will yield fair average.
But in some cases this means little or no
crops from causes that have already ruin
ed some farmers prospects, while in
other localities the promise is as good as
it has been for many years. There are
still many contingencies for those who
have good fields to fear, The ghostly
garments Of Jack Frost may be spread
over the fields almost any morning from
this time out, hail did considerable dam
age during the last week, and black rust
is reported as destroying many fields a
short distance to the south and in Mime
sofa. We do not prophesy an early frost
but three times in the writer's personal.
experience, in farming, fine crops that
were delayed by bad weather in the
spring, were harvested by extra early
frosts in the fall. Harvest is at least two
weeks late this year and that means SO
much more chance for frost.
On the other hand prices are better
than for many years and by all signs are
likely to remain good. All the authorit-
les seem to claim that Europe is short
that the U. S. will have but small sur
plus to EXPORT Besides this the mills Of
Minneapolis are beginning to think that
the local supply Of hard wheat IS getting
scare ]. as during the last year they were
compelled to import wheat from other
states. Another factor is the increased
consumption. which in 1894 was about
thre. and a halt bushels per capita in the
y. s. and 5in 1903 has Increased Is 81
bushels. This with the increase nspopu-
