Rural Cannine00.

Once a denizen Of tho upstate re-

and umbrellas bulge at will. decided
to visit New York. But he decided to
visit the bewildering metropolis quite
as a man of the world-not to be
taken in by the wicked men who. as
he understood. made q business Of de-
ceiving the guileless up-stater.
Hence he arrived at the Grand Cen
trail looking very. very wise, and pro-
ceeded, first Of al. to visit the collec-
ton Of wax figures at the Eden NJ
see.
He was engaged In looking critically
at one Of the most lifeEke groups on
exhibition there. when q policeman
suddenly plucked him BY the sleeve
The up-stater turned.
You mustn't smoke In here" said
the policeman, severely.
A look Of wisdom beyond the pow
er of words to describe came over that
up-stater's face. Continuing brazenly
to smoke. he remarked:
Tut, tut Go away. Don't you
think know. that you're made Of
Wax?"

be asked to choose between Tom Mar

Senator Hansbrough during the cam
paign because we thought him to be
the best available and most expert

Ebrough failed to get enough votes to
be considered a candidate. The Opin-

The Primary Law.

Towner News and Stockman: The
primary law has certainly many weak
spots with its good qualities, One of
the weak points is that it not only
permits but makes it possible to nom.
mate all the state officers from a
single county, or all the county off
GERS from the same locality. It also
leaves the field open for anybody to
get on the primary ballot, whether
he has the proper qualifications or
not, and with the great multiplicity
of candidates, like for the office OF
railroad commissioner this year, the
voter not being acquainted with the
various candidates, simply votes at
random, many times voting for, just
the men whom me would have op.
posed had he known their qualifica
TONS
Another weakness Of the law is
that it is possible for members OF
other political parties to enter the
primaries and have a vote in deciding
who the nominees Of that party shhll
be. The next question is to have
some one suggest a remedy for these
and other bad features.

WANTED 70 HEAR THE BAND.

There was some inquiry among the
Fargo commercial men last night as
to what had become of the Bismarck
band they had previously heard on
so many public occasions, and why
the Bismarck Commercial club had
overlooked the matter of arranging
an evenings concert. The band boys
expected they would have been called
upon, and would have willingly played
had they been asked by the officers
of the local club.
