NORTH DAKOTA
SAFE FOR TAFT

& u VI s 8 s : 4 & / =. y I
Chicago. Sept. so.-K. Knnttson, OF
North Dakota, who has Ieen making a
tour OF the state in the interest Of the
republican national ticket made his
report at headquarters yesterday.
1T has been stated he said that
North Dakota was in the doubtful coll
urnn. / think we may safely put 1t
in the republican column from now on.
AS far AZ could find out, the Bryan
sentiment there is dying out, fast.
Bryan's recent visit TO Fargo and
Grand Forks brought forth small
crowds and little enthusiasm. In fact
Dakota Is strong republican state.
At the recent primary election the
democrats had only $4,000 out OF 60.
900 votes
Won't Hum Risks.
The democrats expect to re-elect
Governor Burke, but G. A. Johnson,
the republican candidate Is making a.
hard campaign. Taft's trip through
North Dakota will have just the i'm
fiuerce that iss needed. There has
been great deal OF La Toilette senti-
n1entr'up there. but think as soon as
soon as the people see and hear TAFT
they will be for him more than ever.
The Roosevelt fight on Haskell and
Bryan has had the effect OF waking
the voters of the state.
THE people up there feel happy and
prosperous and WON'T want to run any
risks Of hard times.

PICKPOCKETS did
not HAVE SUCCESS

A remarkable record was establish.
ed yesterday in Fargo when the big
gest crowd in the history of the city
gathered within Its borders and al
though Ii is certain that there were at
least a dozen of the smoothest crooks
and pick pockets in the country circ
ling through the crowd not single,
incident OF pocket picking, not hold
up or a. theft has been reported to
the police as having occurred within
the borders of Fargo. s..s..
One Theft Heard From.
The only theft that has been heard
OF at all today as having taken place
inside the Fargo limits was that OF
the purse OF J. B. Folsom at Island
park last night. Mr.. Folsom did not
report the matter to the police as
there was only q small amount of
money in the purse When he dis
covered his loss, however, at the park
he Immediately warned the crowd
around him 90 keep olose.s tab on their
pocketbooks an his had been stolen.
Sheriff w. e. Hunt who appointed
fifteen special deputies and the Fargo
police are to be given great deal of
praise for this state of affairs, as 1t
shows that they must have had a
strong moral effect on the crowd. The
city police was augmented by large
number of local specials and all of
the railroads had number OF special
men here.
overcoats Prevented Thefts.
Besides these there were number
OF Pinkerton detectives but the police
admit that the cold weather which
caused almost every person in the
crowd to don an overcoat, had a great
deal to do with keeping down the
number of thefts by pocket picking.
The, crowd was overcoated almost to
man and the coats were buttoned
up to keep out the chilly blasts which
were certainly hards on the pocket
pickers.
There was a robbery reported on
the Dickinson train, a fuller account
Of which will be found in another col
umn and there was an attempter rob-
berry on the south bridge. Olaf Olson
was the near victim In the latter in
cident. He felt a hand at his pocket
and making a grab caught stranger
in the act Of rifiing his pocket. The
thief, however. pulled a knife and
pricked Mr.. Olson's hand until the
latter let GO The would-be pick
pocket then disappeared in the crowd
