THE NEXT STATE FAIR.

Next year the state fair will be held
in this city and it is incumbent upon
the city to see that it is the best one
ever given. 1t must be admitted that
Fargo did herself proud this year in
the exhibition she gave, especially
when 1t is considered that she was
practically beginner. The rivalry
between the two cities while of the
most friendly character, is decidedly
strong. and Grand Forks can not af-
ford to be trailer. We have the
opportunities which would enable us
to lead by good distance, and the
thing to do is to take advantage of
these conditions and next year take
such lead that our rival will not be
able to get in sight in the future.
The state fair in this city should be
made strong rival of the Minnesota
state fair. This can not be done in

been quarter of a century develop
ing the fair which has become cele-
brated throughout the entire country,
and even now 1t is not in completed
condition
The greater size of the cities which
support the fair and the older terri
tory from which 1t is able to draw
gives it advantages which we can not
hope to equal for several years. But
the foundation can be laid and in a
few years the state fair in this city can
be made so distinctive Of the great
northwest, especially as an agricul-
tural exhibition, that it will have no
rivals.
This is the strong advantage which
we have. We will always be in the

Stung All Round.

A barrister named Bushe was try
ing case III Limerick before Chief
Baron O'Grady when, in the course of
the lawyers speech, an ass began to
bray loudly outside the courtroom, the
window Of which opened on pas
ture.
Wait a moment" said the Chief
Baron. "One at time, Mr.. Bushe, If
you please"
The barrister presently had good
chance to retort. When O'Grady was
charging the jury. the ass began to
bray, this time at a greater distance
from the courtroom window.
Il beg your lordship's pardon" said
Barrister Bushe, may l ask you to
repeat your last words? There is such
an echo about here that did not quite
catch that sentence"

are considering the use of automobiles
and feel sure that poor sparker will
not produce as much profanity and
loss of time as poor train service.

mate brings real estate up and up until
property is always in urgent demand.
Seattle Is a city today of 100000 peo-
pie and is bound to be much larger
than that, it's growth being of the SUBJ
stantial sort which will not retrograde
later on"
MIR. Barrett remarked on the growth
of this city and the splendid conditions
prevailing in the country he came
through in his trip from the coast.
In Montana, the wool growers are
happy, their crop bringing good prices
and all along the route there is a
general atmosphere of prosperity
which is an inspiration in itself.
He states that Seattle is to have
new depots soon in addition to already
fine railroad buildings and that as
soon as the four great transcontinental
lines reach that city, the Canadian Pa
cific. Southern Pacific, Chicago & Mil
waukee road business win increase in
phenomenal manner. The Milwaukee
road is employing at least 5000 men
on Its construction work and the race
for the coast Is being conducted night
and day with all eyes on Seattle.
Mr.: Barrett is one of your blunt,
whole-souled gentlemen, a Green
Mountaineer by birth, who is an inter-
esting and entertaining conversation
alist and his enthusiasm over the west
Is apt to be infectious to his listeners.
One of the problems which con-
fronts the travelling men making

trains. They ascribe 1t a good deal

the time intervening between drinks.

Followed Her Wishes.

A woman came to see this landlord.
She wanted to look at house that
was to let. The man sent a clerk to
show her over the house, and on her
return she said:-
II like the house very we'll. There
is only one hing object to-"

teration," the landlord murmured
suavely, would be made, provided you
took a three years lease"
I'D take three years. lease said
the woman IF only the house had
more Closets"
"The number of closets shall be
doubled" said the landlord.
Very WE'LL" said the woman, and
she signed the lease then and there.
After she had gone. the landlord
called to his clerk again.
"John," he said, take a carpenter
over to No. 81 and have him divide
each of the closets in two.

Those bathing SHIFTS.


Some of these bathing dresses"
said Marshall P. Wilder, make me
think of Princess Clementine, the
mother of the prince of Bulgaria.
THE princess said one day to her
sailor brother, the Due de Joinville:
Bring me. on your next trip to the
South Seas, the complete costume of a
kings wife,
81 will gladly the duke answered.
He returned from the South Seas "a
year later, and handed to his sister
string Of glass beads.
These are very pretty said the
princess, but you promised me a COM
plete costume
This is a complete costume said
the duke. I've never seen them wear
any other.'"

On the Bridge at Midnight.

Comedy characters like Germany
and Reddy in ION the Bridge at Mid.
night" which will be at the Metropoli-
tan next Wednesday, are hard to match
and the excellent company the man
agement has provided this year for
the famous scenic drama should make
these two hits as enjoyable as ever.
The bridge scene will be given as elab-
orately and faithfully as ever and
shows what the combined skill of the
scenic artist, stage carpenter, dramat-
list and producer can do with the re-
sources Of the modern stage. The
mingling of humor and pathos in this
play is as remarkable as the chief
scene and the story of the blind mother
seeking her stolen child is SO fashioned
that for the deeply interested audience
the great bridge. lifting its valves to
let steamer pass, is only an incident
after all. There is Qaudable effort
shown in this play to avoid the cheap
effects of reckless, sensational melo-
drama and to stick to the genuine
strength of wholesome drama. There
are many characters besides the pro-
lessor and the bootblack.

In comparing the pay of Maine
teachers with the wages of cotton mill
operatives in the state the committee
found that the balance in favor of
the former was very slight. For in
stance, the $3.50 women working in
the cotton mills of Maine get an aver
age weekly wage of $500, while the
women school teachers get an average
weekly wage of $3.50. The men in the
cotton mills of Maine get an average
weekly wage Of 1901; while the men
teachers get 1918. Since It costs a
person much more to become properly
equipped for the teaching profession
than it does to become an efficient
millworker. to say nothing of the high
er expense Of daily living for the for
mer. the additional wage received by
the teachers, according to this report.
Is far less than it should be.
We have no reason to suppose that
teachers in Maine are worse off with
respect to pay than they are in most
other states of the union.-Leslie's
Weekly.
