PRAISES FOR JAMESTOWN.
Prominent Republicans Say That City
Did Itself Proud In Handling
Crowds.

.Ex-Mayor John Dinnie expressed
himself in a highly complimentary
manner today at the hospitality of
jamestown citizens at the state con-
vention and he seems to voice the
prevailing sentiments of nearly every
one who attended from this city.
While it is often too frequent a GUS
tom for people to take advantage Of
such an occasion and charge exhor-
bitant prices, this was not the case at
the convention. The committees ap-
pointed for the purpose had made
careful canvass Of the city and ar
ranged for the visitors long before
their arrival. In consequence, while
there was an immense crowd present,
every one was accommodated and as
before stated prices We're reasonable.
About the only ones who have
kick coming are the members of the
press. The Western Union certainly
failed to furnish sufficient help to get
dispatches through to evening papers
the day of the convention. A repre-
sentative of one of the Twin City pa
pers was about driven to desperation,
even considering the feasibility of 60

messages in order to reach his paper.
One operator. person unused, evil

attendance Wednesday, assisted by a
boy and for time it looked dark for
the newspaper men. The telephone
was used freely when connections
could be obtained and helped out some.

of the convention the wire was fire.
quently out of order, according to the
statement Of operators and connec-
tons with Grand Forks was out of the
question. Cheney of the Minneapolis
Journal. describes the service as "piti-
full in the extreme"
Mr.. Dinnie stated to The Evening
Times that he wishes to go on record
as expressing the almost universal
sentiments of those who attended from
here to the effect that jamestown did
herself proud in the way the crowds
were handled, and other prominent
republicans have expressed themselves
likewise.

THE CAMPAIGN
Republicans Will Commence
Active Work Soon-Head-
quarters at FARGO.

The campaign this fall which will
be put up by both the democrats and
republicans promises to be unusually
active.
Major Hamilton of the state central
committee. is recuperating from the
nervous strain and worry incident to
his clerical duties as executive clerk
of the state central committee at
the Jamestown convention and will
take much needed rest prior to going
to Fargo to open up headquarters for
the committee.
Everything points to lively cam
paign this fall. The democrats have
been casting about for a man whom
they think can defeat Governor Sarles,
and IL reports are true, they have
about decided upon Attorney John
Burke, known as Honest John" Burke
of Devils Lake, as their Moses.
Whether or no Mr.. Burke will con-
sent to be slaughtered is question,
but he Is strong possibility.
Another figure looming up in the
democratic horizon is George E. Duis
of this city, who is being considered.
1t is we'll understood that Mr.. Duis
did not engage in the newspaper bust
ness when he assumed to rejuvenate
the old "P. Dee" for love of country
or for a business investment. That
Mr.. Duis had "a bee" was even then
assumed, and it is now intimated that
he is going after the governorship for
all there is in it.
The democrats pin a forlorn hope
that the recently settled disruption in
the republican party is going to result
own gl0rification. From all the writer
no material falling of in republican
ranks this fall, the thinking republic
cans having long since determined to
stand by the party and the insurgent
vagary will not be further pursued, for
time at least. The article appearing
In these columns last evening from an
interview with j. H. Bosard expresses
sentiment which is felt by the in
surgents who think, barring, of course,
the men who had personal ambitions
and received much deserved drub-
bling from their party.
Will 1t be Burke, or will 1t be Duis
or someone else? These are questions
which confront the democrats and
which are being seriously considered.
Mayor Duis went to st. Paul last even
ing and is said to be on mission of
considerable secrecy.
Meanwhile, the republicans of the
state will lay their plans to put up an
energetic campaign and the same will
be launched earlier than usual this
year, according to those who will be
in charge. United effort for the ticket
is certain from present indications and
the republican majorities this fall will
not fall short of the usual figures.

Fair Directors Meet.

The board of directors of the Great
Red River Valley exposition met this
morning. A committee was appointed
to arrange for Grand Forks day at the
Fargo state fair, consisting of Mayor
Duis. J. D. Bacon, E. j. Lander. o. M.
Hatcher, H. M. Wells and A. l.. Woods.
Because of the failure to secure an
appropriation from the county, it was
decided to abandon work on the
mechanical hall at the fair grounds.
President James ]. Hill has offered to
donate $1,000 to the fair to be used as
premiums. The board of directors ac-
cepted the offer and passed suitable
resolution of thanks for same.

VALLEY LAND MUST RISE.
Government Surveyors Claim prices
Must Advance.

F. c. Schroeder and A. w. Mangum,
government surveyors who have been
working for the past few days in the
vicinity of Climax, returned to Crooks
ton to spend Sunday. The former In a
conversation with The Times repre-
sentative said:
I'm less than five years land in the
valley will be selling for $50 per acre.
Land Is altogether too cheap in this
section and the price can only remain
where 1t is for very short time. The
soil here cannot be beat in any section
of the United States. You can raise
anything with proper cultivation, after
the drainage system has been perfect
ed l would be willing to lay a wager
that within the time stated the average
price for valley land will be $50 per
acre, and the demand will be good at
that"

CHICKENS WILL BE PLENTIFUL.
Good Hunting Season All Over the
Northwest Is Predicted.

Chicken hunting ought to be pretty
good In Minnesota and the DakOtas
this year." said we'll known Crooks
ton sportsman at the Crookston hotel
yesterday. 1.-THE spring was pretty
wet, but i! do not believe there was
enough water to interfere with the
nesting of the birds. Some years,
when there are heavy rains early in
the season, the young chicks are
drowned out, and many of them come
to miserable end before they have
been long on earth. In other cases
the water reaches the nest before the
eggs are Matched and brings to an end
the hopes of the mother for that sea-
son.
From reports have received from
friends through the northwest, the,
young birds are quite plentiful now.
A good many fiocks of them are being
seen. They are too young to be shot,
and so there are no law breakers in
the field. The game protection afford
ed by the different states Is fairly
adequate, and the shooting that is be-
ing done before the opening of the
season, SO far as chickens are concern
ed. at least, does not amount to much,
and makes no serious inroads on the
available supply.
"A little later on men with dogs will
begin to put in an appearance on the
western fields, but they will not have
guns with them. Their object will be
the training of the CANNES. Every
summer number of men thus break
In dogs before the opening of the sea-
son. The law allows them to practice
on the chickens as long as no shoot
Ing is done. The dogs work as we'll
on young birds as on old and by put
ting inexperienced dogs in the field
July and August they are sufficiently
trained to be worth something in Sep
TENDER. Some men make it their bust
ness to do little or nothing but train
bird dogs. The city man trusts his
pet to their care for certain sum of
money, and one man sometimes trains
twenty-five or thirty dogs in a season.
He generally has some Trustworthy
dog of experience along to act as as
sistant teacher. The pups work bet
ter when one acquainted with the busi-
ness is working with them.
