TO SEE WORLDS FAIR
The Minneapolis Tribune TO
Send lO4 Ladies With all EX.
penses Paid-AutOmObiIcs and
Pianos Also Given Away.

sOn to 100, OOO," was the inspiring
motto adopted by the Minneapolis
Tribune management last January,
that being the mark set for the cir
culatiOn of this enterprising and wide
awake newspaper. The point reached
by September 1st was SO, 900, and the
campaign had really only just begun.
The latest phase of this battle for
supremacy in the newspaper field of
the northwest is the voting contest
now in progress for the selection of
fifty ladies in the Tribune terri
tory to enjoy q trip to the worlds fair
at ST. Louis, with all that that implies,
as the guests of the management. The
magnitude of this scheme is shown by
the fact that it will cost the Tribune a
cool 50, 800 to meet all the conditions
of the contest, including the choice of
a travelling companion, a trip down
the picturesque Mississippi, returning
by a special Pullman train: accommo-
dations at the Hotel Hamilton, a first
class $5-a-day house, convenient to
to the grounds and special privileges
on the Pike, assuring every visitor
the fullest measure of entertainment

excursion.
But this is not all. In a contest
which already includes several thous-
and names but a limited number can
win the grand prizes. In addition to
the 1O4 worlds fair trips, therefore,
six valuable prizes are offered-a
81, 800 Winton touring car: a 81, $50
Rambler touring car; a 1850 Olds-
mobile touring car: a quarter grand
Chickering piano: an $500 baby grand
Kimball piano; and another of we'll
known make. Already the voting has
reached an exciting stage, but the
real struggle has only just begun.
The last few weeks will be the liveliest
of the contest, and the fact that Miss
Marie Schafer, a resident of Big
Stone, is we'll up in the list gives this
community a particular interest in
the outcome. This community has
considerable civic pride and will not,
we believe, allow itself to be beaten by
any other. So we predict that our
friend Miss Schafer will not only see
the fair, but that she will win one of
the grand prizes.

VIM. F. Rabbit, president of the
"Anti-machine Republican club"sends
out q circular letter requesting voters
to give him their s'earnest corpora
ton" from now until October 8th.
Think Of Mr.. Rabbit as q reformer!
A man who secured his nomination
as clerk of courts in the first place by
promising support to two different
candidates for county commissioner,
Messrs. Geo. Nixon and August How
land, and then, by q piece of trickery
which has already been exposed by
the Headlight, securing the withdrawal
OF his leading opponent. A great po-
litical refOrmer is the willy William,
but most people are familiar with his
record and we would not mention his
circular if it were not for the fact
that most of Williams candidates who
have been in Big Stone have been
expressing themselves as very much
pleased with the primary election plan
for the reason that it removed the
necessity of their lining up with
Messrs. Rabbit and Bentley and gave
the voters a chance to vote for them
on their own individual merits.
Can it be that this was merely talk
gotten up for the e%dification of anti
Rabbit voters only? 1t would appear
from Williams circular that he thinks
that the contest is still one to be set
tied on factiOnal lines, in spite of the
protestations of his candidates.
1t this be true it is well for the
voter to- know it from as high an
authority as President Rabbit him.
self.-Big Stone Headlight.
Mr.. Rabbit certainly should
explain who he means by s'our
boys In fact, those whom he is
probably referring to as tour
boys have been busy lately pro
testing that they should not be
linked with Rabbit, and one
candidate has been compelled to
announce publicly that he will
not appoint said Rabbit as dep
uty should he be elected himself.
1t would be only fair to the re-
publicans of the county to know
just how far tour boys are at
tempting to foist their president
upon the people of Grant county.
The men who will cast the votes
on the 9Th of next month are GER
tainly entitled to know what can
didates are connected with this
dark-lantern conspiracy to pur.
ify politics, of whichnour Billy
seems to be the head, front, body,
legs and breeches.

Dear Sir:
The executive committee of the Anti
machine Republican Club requests us
to ask your earnest cooperation in
the political fight that will be waged
from now until October s 1904.
We fully appreciate the influence
you can exert in your precinct, and
wish to avail ourselves of the OppOr-
tunity at this time to thank you for
what you have done in the past in the
interest of clean politics.
We wish you would write us from
time to time and keep us informed as
to the conditions of your town, and
we will be pleased to give you what
ever assistance we can from now until
the fight is won.
It is very probable that several of
our boys will call on you within the
next three weeks, and we bespeak for
them your assistance in your locality.
and we wish that you would offer
them all the suggestions you can.
Yours very truly.
WILLIAM F. Rabbit,
E. j. HULSMAN, Chairman.
Secretary.
The above is a copy of a circu-
lar letter that has been sent out
by Mr.. Rabbit and his friends,
the circular containing the names
of some twenty other parties
whom it claims to present as an
executive committee.
The circulars have been sent
out on the quiet, and only TO
those whom it was supposed
were in sympathy With Mr.. Rab
bit and his peculiar methods of
manipulation. 1t will be noticed
that the authors have assumed
the name of the Grant County
Republican Club but the re-
publicans of the county know
nothing of the organization OF
any such club, and if there is
such an organization it has been
effected in the dark and by meth
DDS that will noe bear the light
of day. The principles of the
republican party are supposed
to be able to bear the light of
day, and republican clubs are
generally organized in the open
and not under cover and in
secret. This stealing the livery
of heaven to serve the devil in,'
should meet the just condemna-
ton of every republican in the
county.
Just think of it! The motor
ious Billy Rabbit the president
of a republican Club to purify
politics! On, Mr.. Dooley, you're
a daisy and no mistake. Billy is
just dying for clean politics! His
past record in political matters
in Grant county shows it.
Vote for Rabbit and reform,
for if there is any one thing in
Grant county that needs reform
ing that thing is w. F. Rabbit
himself, and we are pleased to
note he is president of an associ-
alton with that purpose in view

CAMP ROOSEVELT
Denial of Some Ridiculous Falsehoods
 in Circulation.

William L. Mann, carpenter who has been employed at the Tonto stnr- age basin for sometime. is in the city for a short stay to attend t. some pri vate business matters. He came down over the trail and as it has been ten days since he left he has nothing spe- clally new to report respecting con- struction matters hut says work ir progressing as fast as possible and both the government officials and con tractors are rushing things.
 MT. Mann. though. said he did want to say something in defense of condl- tions at the basin. rather in refutation of certain false stories that have bsen spread for one reason CT another. Hp said-that he first went to Roosevelt via Globe and before he got there he met lots of people who tried to dissuadc him from his purpose. They told him that the camp was dirty, unsanltarv and lousy and that one could not camp near there without acquiring gray backs. Also that the dust was friEht. the board was unspeakable. the flies were an abominarion and the foremen and officials were disagreeable and hard to get along with. These stories MT. Mann denCunces as being entirely false except as to the flies ard even that evil is Iessened by the use Of screens in some Of the houses. He says there was a time when they had a poor cook but there is no complaint Eaw among the right minded. either at the board CT the manner of it's serving. The dust is admittedly bad owing to the strong winds and the ne3rness Of the freight roads but the roads are now sprinkled and kept in fair coldi- tion. They never had but one man in the camp who was chronicallY and in Curably infected with veTmin and they shipped him long ago and cleaned up after him. Respecting the forencn or bosses. MT. Mann says he never saw a more gentlemanly staff Of oversecrs in his life. They demand TO imcossibil- ities and treat everyone with uniform respect. All they ask is that a man shall be competent to do the work for which he is hired. But this tl,ev do demand. If he fails there is no harsh ness and no display of temper. The time check is made out and the man travels. That is all there is to it Mir. Mann says he has been a mechanic for twenty years but has never found a more pleasant place to work. He has ether jobs offered him at this time. some with more money in. but he is satisfied and is going back.
 The water he says does not agree with everybody but most men soon be- come accustomed to it and in the event of sickness there is a very god camp hospital a good doctor and a hospital steward. Near by Roosevelt are a couple of hot springs that many obtain q supply of laundry water from and
