There is plenty Of food for thought
for the student of pol tics in the meet
ing of the state central commit 8of
this state at Fargo last Saturday.
There was much more to be gathered
than the mere meeting Of the Com

was what the men gathered from every
county of the state. and meeting for
the first time before the coming state
campaign, thought OF the condition and
prospects that made the gathering Of
more than ordinary interest.
The first thing that strikes the seek
5.er after political truth on the condi-
stion of the republ ican party in the
state is that there is an infinitismal
small amount of party disrupt lon SEN
timent to be found throughout the
state; this statement does not imply
that there is no such thing as mem
bers of the party who are AFFILIATED
with what is designated as the in
surgents, for there are members of the

cate a change in men. But the crowd

Let me cite an illustration Of this

private life a man of unblemished
character, and has lived III the city
for more than twenty years. Tt is
fair to infer from these condition that
II his connection with the present in
surrection in the republican party
would arouse any enthusiasm any
where, Fargo would be the place.
IT has been stated that the recent.
municipal campaign in me city showed
the overwhelming sentiment Of the
city against the insurgents This may
or may not be true. for the best test
OF the matter is the sentiment and

on this matter said he could not be
convinced that there was any thing in

to secure offices. He cited the present

mig Pile OF Hay Burns.

Three hundred tons of baled alfalfa hay
rslonging to the Alfalfa Meal company,
.awelfth street and Tenth avenue, caught
ire yesterday afternoon about 4:3O o'clock
and up to late hour last night was still
burning. Fire Chief Jones gave It as his
opinion that the hay, owing to the fact
that 1t was in bales, probaly would smolder
for week.
The hay was stacked In an open shed with
a board roof and the blaze is thought to
have been caused by spark from a switch
engine. Al the ONCE of the Alfalfa Meal
company IL was stated that the hay was
insured. but for what amount could not be
determined last evening, but II was believed
TO be sunicient 10 cover any loss.
Several streams OF water were thrown by
the nre department on the blazing hay,
but owing to the closeness with which the
bales were packed apparently had little
effect. One company, was kept at the place
all night throwing water.
The Alfalfa Meal company was burned
ct in Omaha and shortly after removed TO
- side OF the river, lie plant being To-
0sed near the tracks OF the Great Western
