ST. PAUL J0BBERS
ARE HERE
TODAY
Members Enthusiastic Over
North Dakota's Business
Prospects.

The special bearing the st. Paul
jobbers who are touring the north
west arrived in this city at 1 o'clock
this afternoon. something like half an
hour behind their schedule time. The
train which is especially chartered
for the trip consists of six coaches
and a baggage car. The sides of the
coaches are decorated with streamers
bearing appropriate and catchy adj
vertisements of the city. The most
noticeable were "the latch string is al
ways out in st. Paul" THE man who
buys in st. Paul is never Sold" "If
1t comes from st. Paul, it's good"
Goods we'll bought are half sold"
The train was met by reception COM
mittee consisting of Mayor Duis.
President Lander of the Commercial
club. r. B. Griffith and NJ. F. Murphy.
The trip is being made over the north
west for the purpose of looking at the
business prospects for the coming
year and also to push the business of
st. Paul in this territory. They have
been over large portion of the state
and to The Evening Times a number of
them stated that the prospects for an
enormous business in the northwest
and especially in North Dakota were
never surpassed in the history of the
country. The prospects for good
crop was every where present and the
merchants and business men through
out the territory were preparing for
heavy business.
The remarkable thing about the mat
ter is that the members of the party
who are interested in what might he
termed luxurious goods are anticipat-
Ing the heaviest trade for years in
their lines. One Of these gentlemen
remarked that he had travelled this

DUIS OR CASHEL IS.
WANTED FOR
GOVERNOR
Prominent Democrat Discusses
Chances Of Party in North
Dakota This Fall.

II tell you, gentlemen-if the demo-
cratic party of North Dakota will use
great care and choose none but strong
men as its candidates for state Office,
1t will come nearer to winning out
in the state this year than 1t ever did
before" The above remark was made
today by r. H. Shaddrick of Fargo,
better known to North Dakotans as
Silver Dick" a democrat, travelling
man, and withal popular over the
state.
There are just two men," continued
Mr.. Shaddrick, who are what | would
consider strong candidates for the
democratic gubernational nomination.
Those men are George E. Duis, mayor
of Grand Forks, and State Senator
John l.. Cashel of Grafton, Walsh
county. Cashel, being the more widely
known of the two, would probably
make the stronger candidate, though
l do not doubt that George E. Duis in
a stump OF the state would make hun
dreds of votes for himself. He is a
man of pleasing personality, a good
speaker, and up to date in politics."
A gentleman standing near by and
listening to the speaker called atten-
ton to the report that Mr. Cashel had
given it out he would under no circum-
stances be candidate. In reply Mr..
Shaddrick stated that he expected to
have talk with Senator Cashel and
other prominent democrats next week,
at which time an understanding of
some sort would be arrived at.
During the course OF his remarks
Shaddrick was the center of circle
of prominent local democrats, all of
whom seemed to be thoroughly agreed
with him that the dems had bright
prospects for the coming fall.
Mr.. Shaddrick did not touch upon
national politics at all, seemingly con-
tent with combining himself to the
chances of the party in North Dakota.

D. H. Mcmillan, of Langdon, former
state treasurer. was visitor in the
city today enroute home from James
town. Discussing the convention, Mr..
Mcmillan stated that he had attended
every state republican convention
from the time of the organization of
the territory as state in 1889.
Il we'll remember the first conven-
ton. said Mr.. Mcmillan. at was
held at Fargo in 1889. The same men
who were candidates for temporary
chairman of the late convention-E.
A. Williams, of Burleigh, and NJ. N.
Johnson. of Petersburg-were candi-
dates for that position at the conven-
ton of 49, The result was the same
in both cases, Williams being chosen.
The convention of 1889 selected Gov
ernor Miller as its nominee He was
afterwards elected and served with
credit to himself and the state.

Commissioner Ladd Will Bur Its Sale
by Druggists of North Dakota.


1.-The sale of bromo- settler in the
state of North Dakota is illegal and
druggists who persist in selling the
stuff are liable to prosecution"
The foregoing statement was made
on Friday by Food Commissioner Ladd
of Fargo.
In spite of the statement, how
ever, the sale of bromo-seltzer con-
tinues and the drug is to be found
on the shelves in about every drug
store in the state
That Food Commissioner Ladd will
see that his order in regard to the
stuff is strictly enforced as soon as
he returns from the east where he has
just gone to attend a national meeting
of food commissioners, is admitted
by everyone who knows the strenu-
GUS food commissioner.

in favor of the upper falls. He held
that the Northwestern Telephone COM

of the city fathers. 1t is probable that
an appeal will be taken to the supreme
court. The condition in Thief River

the council should govern the extern

Upon the arrival of his train at Hills

for speech and he responded very

In short, one will be king and entitled
to crown. King Citrus at the begin
ming of his career was very unpublished,
boorish sort of fellow. Yet there was
d kind of widowed aristocracy about
him, but it looked very unlikely that he
should ever be able to claim his crown,
raised as he had been in the backwoods
without particle of culture and refine
ment. He must have the advantages of
better society and better schooling; he
must 60 to college! indeed, his character
must be changed in many ways. That
which was bitter and acid in his nature
must be turned to sweet, and the rough
expression of his tawny features must
be made smooth and bright before he

should cover his whole domain, fred his
ambition, Just then genealogical wiz
ard came along with his uncanny and
alluring suggestions. "What better plan
could be devised" said he, " than to seek
an alliance with foreign kings and
queens" In fact, a royal marriage was
just the thing. So Italy, Sicily, China,
Portugal and Spain were all called in
council. Each gallantly rendered "scions"
of their princely stock which were most
lovingly embraced by King Citrus. 1t is
wonderful to notice the marked effect
which good company, good clothes and
refined, cultured society have upon some
natures. You would hardly have known

always bring their devotees. Don't take
off your white kid gloves" said he to
the New York Fifth Avenue belle; "I'll
send you some of the daintiest members
of my family to serve at any of your
grand functions"
But to attain to this superior posi-
ton he must be properly and most suit
ably nourished. He must be fed with the
best of health foods, for he is decidedly
epicurean in his tastes. The modern
germ" theory appeals to his sense of
right and justice, for his small enemies,
the rust, mite and scale infnitesimal
as they appear to be, must be vigorously
banished from his kingdom. cit is very
small business for king" said he,
"but the world demands it and I must
submit"
We cannot, however, vouch for the
highest moral character of King Citrus.
He evidently believes in graft" GER
tainly in poligamy. His numerous wives
and offspring will attest to the truth of
the latter fact. From a great globular
monstrosity (miscalled grapefruit), on
which one might readily describe map
of the world, down to the daintiest i'm
aginable little dwarf pygmy, which bears
the euphOnious name of "Kumquat," to-
gether with lemons and lines, all are
called his children and grandchildren.
There seems to be no end to the in
ordinate ambition and aristocratic pro-
clivities of King Citrus. His friend the
wizard, is continually suggesting new
possibilities. He promised him money
and power. What other two words could
be more enticing? He told him that he
could change the color of his blood, drive
out all Objectionable seeds, give him a
smooth, clear skin and lovely complex
ion. In short, he could completely trans.
form him, make him very beautiful and
give him long, useful life, even down
to old age!
But there was one thing the wizard
lid not positively promise him, and that
was to keep Mr.. John Frost, the old
Ice King, from the North, from invading
ms domain. This venerable, cold-hearted
however, some years ago, to send word
old gentleman, with long flowing white
beard and icy touch, had the courtesy,
that ne was coming, but King Citrus, in
his most disdainful way, exclaimed:

Above the signal station;
hate the blackened rag
That jeers the freezing nation"
OF course he had the worst of the
fight, and which in his humiliation and
shame, cost poor Florida millions of dol.

So many years ago that they can
scarcely be counted--long before any Of
our great grandparents were born-a
little king was born away down in the
tangled swamps of Florida. 1t was very
unlikely that the little fellow, which we
may call little golden ball, not over six
inches in circumference, would ever be
able to make his mark in the world,
much less to say: 81 intend to be ruler
of kingdom, and shall take my place
in the long line of kings in the CONNER
cial world"
It has been the custom, as we know,
for many of the States of our broad
commonwealth to set up kings of their
own; thus, King Corn, King Cotton and
King Coal, have long held their sway
over their respective Kingdoms. But
now another one has entered the field for
kingly honors, and royal king Of gold
he Is, too!
There has been some little dispute
about his birthplace. Some contend that
away back in the past, when the Span
iards first held possession of these
primeval forests, they scattered the seed
brought with them from their native
land through these tangled hammock
lands, where they have ever since been
left to take care of themselves. Others
maintain that our king is native of
Florida-that his birth dates far back
in the dim old past, when this peninsula
State was gathered out of the depths of
the sea into a long, narrow heap of sand
and shell. Then, when the soils result
ing from the last redemption of the
ancient seas was fairly settled into place,
and had come to stay, all this wealth of
vegetation nurtured by continual sun
shine jumped into being, and with it
came the king of the citrus family, to
stay, too.
Florida! beautiful Castilian name
the prettiest in all the Union) is the
home of our king. He could not have
selected fairer domain. There, like
the veriest coquette of all our States,
she stubbornly sits upon her seat of
eternal rock, ner back propped up against
her neighbors, Georgia and Alabama; her
feet dangling down into the sea, her toes
sticking out ut Key West, while her de-
voted attendants, old ocean and the gulf,
seem to be in continual quarrel to de-
eide which shall fan her the oftenest.
Along her twenty rivers and uncounted
lakes, fringed on either side with an in
terminable tangle of jessamine, ivy, cy-
press, magnolia and palmetto, and where
the long fllmy veil of Spanish moss
throws its weird and dancing shadows,
our king first saw the light.
A Florida story is this: Every or
ange is supposed to contain an embryo
King; thus, If all the seeds of an orange
are planted at the same time, in the
same soil and like conditions, one will
be far in advance of all the others in

that event, everybody had called him

was truly remarkable. Tone and money

The grand possibilities that might be
