key and receive the profit than it is
to license another man to sell whis-
key and you receive the license? Is
it more wrong to sin than it is to en-
courage it, and license Others to do it:
Because, in either case, it is money
received from the sale of whiskey-
1t is liquor money just the same.
The dispensary system is not re-
sponsible for bad management, and
should not be voted out because some
are violating the law, any more than
city should be condemned and boy
cotted because it has some disrepu-
table parts. For instance on Sunday
l noticed, while people were going
to the opera house to hear the bscca-
laureate sermon to the graduating
class OF Newberry college, that a
crowd of negro boys were under the
court house piazza on the public
square playing mouth organ,
dancing, laughing, and talking loudly.
The same thing was going on during
''e service and during the time that
e people were leaving, returning
home. Should Newberry be shut up
and the charter taken away from the
town because of this? Yet people
say the dispensary must go because
some bad management has been
shown.
What means this combination
among prohibitionists, the blind
tiger element, the moonshiners and
those who favor open barrooms. 1t
the dispensary is voted out, what are
we to have? Prohibition? No;
Because it would never be enforced;
the attempt would be failure, as it
always has been everywhere, and as a
result it would soon become stencil
in the nostrils of the people, and then
we would hear the other side crying
out, Give US the old bar-rooms, and
that is why they are today with the
prohibitionists and endeavoring to-
kin the dispensary. Do you want the
old bar-room system in the back end
of your drug-stores? If so, vote to
kill the dispensary and to establish
so-called prohibition.
These are only a few thoughts
which I wish to call to your attention
and ask you to consider. If the
election is asked for, before it is held
hope that there will be arranged
meetings in the county, where the
question can be presented fairly and
without prejudice to the people. I
stand ready to defend the dispensary
system, and at the proper time will
invite joint discussion with the
leaders on the other side. Then the
matter can be presented, and the fight
can be made and to the finish
In conclusion, let me call your at
tention to the meeting of Saturday
and to those who were leading it.
Does it remind you of certain other
conventions held in our county? Is
this another political movement in
disguise to help some body get Office?
Respectfully.
Cole T; Blease.

MARRIED.

"A very pretty wedding took place
in Fertile yesterday afternoon at
the residence of the BRIDES sister,
Mrs. Harry G.. Hanson, when Mr..
Henry G. Olson, of Washbum, ND.
and Miss Katherine Rosendahl, Of
Spring Grove, Of this state, were
united in the holy bonds of wedlock
Rev. A. Ofstedahl tying the nuptial
knot. The groom is Superintend-
ent Of Schools Of his county and a
young man with a brilliant future
before him. The bride is a charm
ing young lady, who has been en-
gagged in teaching at Washburn for
a number of years. They will be
at home to their friends at Wash
burn after July Sth."
The above notice of the marriage
Of Henry G. Olson to Miss Rather
inc Rosendahl, we take from the
FERTILE MINI. JOURNAL. The
bride and groom need no introduce
ton to our people as they are both
we'll and favorably known and have
a host Of friends who wish them
all the JOY and happiness Of a long
and happy married life. They ar
rived home Saturday noon, and
we're met at the depot by a large
number of friends.

merchants. Their float contained
"a handsome display Of canned
goods neatly arranged. A complete
line Of clothing was neatly and
attractively displayed. This dis
play vas certainly sweet and at
tractiye.
MI. j. I. Brown, one of our new
business men, had a unique float
in the procession, representing the
grocery business. Nice decora-
ton surrouned we'll arranged dis
play Of many Of the delicacies in
cans and cartons. This display
was good and attracted much at
tention along the line of march.
The Merchants Lum-
Der Co., a home concern, had a
four horse load of lumber, arranged
in tiers, and handsomely decorated
with flags and bunting. Itcertain-
ly created an impression.
Never since the days of Barnum
& Bailey has there ever been such
a clown as appeared in Washburn
on the Fourth. With a donkey
hitched to a cart, the clown, and a
much better one was. never yet dis
covered, was in the parade and
created much amusement for the
young and, old.
MI. Anton Peterson looked after
the school children and had large
number of them in the parade in a
large wagon decorated with flags.
The Indians in full war paint
and feathers on horseback added
much to the appearance of the pa
rade. This part was certainly en-
joyed by those who had never seen
the Indian in his native dress.
The parade certainly made a
handsome appearance as it came
down main street with flags and
bunting floating in the light breeze.
1t was an imposing spectacle:
Hon. T. r. Mockler, of Bismarck,
delivered a fine Grafton to a large
audience in the tent pavilion. The
speech was highly spoken. Of and
fenjoyed. J.
After dinner the crowd went to
the base ball park to witness the
game between Napoleon and Wash
burn teams. The last half Of the
first inning proved a disasterous
one for the visitors, the. home team
making seven runs. After the
first inning the game was an even
ly matched one, but Washburn had
too much Of start andat the end of
the game the score was IL to 4 in
favor of the home team. The game
was a good one and was a gentle
manly rivalry for the honors. Mr..
Locke of Oliver county officiated
as umpire.
After. the ball game came the
small sports. Space will not per
NIT us to give the names of the
winners, but suffice to say this
part of the program was en- oyed.
The five dollars for climbing the
creased pole was won by a little
boy by the. name of Knudtsen. The
Indian war dance closed the events
Of the day. The dance had just
nicely commenced when it began
to rain and put a stop to the dance
by the Indians.
After supper the rain clouds
passed away and dancing com.
menced in the tent, which was kept
up until the early morning hours
A fine display Of fireworks were
set off at 10 O'Clock and was wit
ness by a number.
No untoward event happened t.
mar the day. There were no &C
cidents and the large crowd was
perfectly orderly and all seemed
bent OH having a good time, and VT
believe they had it.
