Republican Unity.

Fargo Forum: The results o1
the primary election law have
been beneficial to the republi-
can party of North Dakota.
From a party, rather than from
a factional standpoint-the out
come should be welcomed.
Had either the stalwarts or
insurgents been entirely victor
ious the defeated faction would
have felt more or less resent
ment-.and there might have
been some excuse for voting
against the winning ticket.
Under the present circum-
stances there is none. Each
faction has won a part of the
ticket. Each is interested in a
victory for it's favorites-and
no true republican will attempt
to pick out his favorites to the
exclusion of the other nominees.
1t is a year for voting the ballot
straight and The Forum will
be greatly surprised if this is
not done.
The factional fight is for
tunately buried by the selection
of a split state ticket and the
further fact that both the high
men in the fight for the u. S..
senatorship belong to the in
surgent faction. There is moth
ing to keep open old sores and
nothing to create ill-feeling or
resentment.
The stalwarts will naturally
prefer Marshall or Johnson for
the senate, Bickford for treas
urer, Spalding for judge, Stock
we'll for superintendent, or
Miller for attorney general-to
having these positions filed by
democrats. The insurgents
will have the same sentiments
regarding the republican NOM
inees who have been aligned
with the stalwarts.
The little family muss is over
and the republican party OF
North Dakota presents a united
front for both the national and
state tickets. Its big steam
roller is in operation and it will
be hard lines for the democratic
candidate who gets in the way

To the patrons of the North
ern Telephone company: On
and after July 1, 1908, reduced
night rates will be in effect
only between the hours of 9
D. m. and 6 a. m. This con-
forms to the ruling adopted by
other long distance companies,
and the Northern Telephone
company has been compelled
to adopt this ruling, because
of the confusion incident to
handling two different night
rate periods in our accounting
system. Telephone

OLD SETTLERS PICNIC.
Date Changed 10 Saturday, July IS,
and Large Attendance AsiloIpatod.

The old settlers picnic will
be held Saturday, July 18, in
stead of July 20 as at first pro-
posed. Governor Burke has
written A. G. Burr that he will
be present and deliver an ad-
dress. Hon. G.. A. Johnson of
Minot, republican candidate for
governor, writes that a previous
engagement renders it impos-
sible for him to come. Hon. l..
B. Hanna of Fargo and Hon.
Tobias Casey of Grafton, the re-
publican and democratic con-
gressional nominees respect
lively, have been invited to come
and will probably accept.
Mayor Newhouse has declar-
ed a public holiday in honor of
the event as will be seen by the
following
PROCLAMATION:

sociation of Bottineau county

And whereas such an event
will bring to our city a large
number of people from all over

the debt which this county and
community owes to the early
settlers, and it being the gen.
eral feeling of the citizens of
this city that some definite
active steps be taken by the

citation of such an event:
Now therefore, l, G. L. New

mend to the citizens of the city

Was Fairly Good.

The races of the Bottineau
Turf club Friday did not attract
as large a crowd as had been
hoped. A number of good
horses were here and the races
were fairly good. Coming as
the event did on the day before
the Fourth and within a short
time after the Gollmar circus
probably had much to do with
cutting down the attendance.
The Antler and Bottineau
baseball teams played a seven
inning contest in the morning,
the score standing 2 to 2 when
the game was called. In the

The Donkey,

Those who regard the donkey as a
stupid animal would probably be in
duced to alter their opinion by tour
round the coasts of England and Ire
land. Where field is situated imme-
diately above high cliffs and young
horses have been turned into it dom
key may generally be found browsing
away contentedly in their midst. Need
less to say, he is not placed there for
an ornament. Owing to his superior
intelligence nothing will induce him
