Botn Girls Tell Same Story.
The police were not inclined to be-

borsythe girl and said that she had
had similar experience with Gala
CHAN. The police then found the For
sythe girl, and on being questioned
she told the same story as the VIII
liams girl.
Both of these girls say that there
are other little girls in the neighbor-
hood who were enticed into CalIaghan's
bachelor quarters with promises of var
ious kinds, and these little girls will
be brought to the station and be in
duced to tell what they know. Chief

work of the campaign has been
started. The stalwarts are

which seems to be in sight.
Returns from the counties
that have held county con-

In fact it looks as though the
insurgents won't have a look
in as far as representation is
at the Minot conven-
ton. A prominent insurgeut
leader said while : in the city
that the insurgents had no
hopes of being able to control
the Minot convention. He said
he had been over the state con-
siderably and found that the
inrurgents had realized that
their being branded traitors and
insurrectionists, was justifi-
able. They were becomin e
wearied of bearing that title
and would like to get back into
