Mayors Office. Fargo, NJ D., July 10.
To the People OF Fargo: 1t has
been brought TO my attention that the
advocates OF the commission form OF
government are making the statement,
in places where they think 1t will help
them, that 1 am in favor of adopting
the commission law.
That my position may be understood
on the question, and that my friends
and the public generally may know
how I stand, / wish to say, more
emphatically, that I am--not-in favor
of adopting the commission law as ii
is now framed.
law, so defective, that 1t contains
no limitation of taxes precludes the
making of public Improvement, such
as building new sewers. watermains,
paving and sidewalks; that doesn't re-
quire the officers under 1t to take oath
OF office, and fails to fix the RESPONSE
bility on any commissioner for the
appointment and confirmation of app
pointive officers; and provides for the
appointment of the city treasurer in
stead of his election as the present law
does for his election, it seems to me is
too defective for the people to adopt,
and, when adopted. to still hope that
this city can still go on and grow and
improve as we hope to have it do.
am a large taxpayer and 1 am in
terested in the growth and improves
ment of Fargo, and 1 believe the adop-
ton of the commission law, as now
framed, will retard and set back the
growth of Fargo for many years If the
people are so foolish to adopt it.
am not concerned that the adop-
ton of the law will replace me as
mayor, while mayor I shall do my duty
to the people; when relieved under a
proper law, shall go out of office
feeling that have done my duty.
believe that every man in Fargo
having the best interests of the city
at heart should vote against the adop-
ton of the commission law as 1t is
1ow framed Respectfully yours,
P. ELLIOTT, Mayor.

MEMBERS OF TRADES G. LABOR
CLAIM PRESIDENT MADE MU-
NIcIPAL ISSUE A PERSONAL
MATTER-No DESIRE TO MIX
IN THE PRESENT CAMPAIGN.

The absence OF union men from the
meeting called by Pres. B. F. Lathrope
OF the Trades & Labor assembly Sat
urday evening, when the matter of the
commission form of government was
to be discussed, was, 1t is said. due
to the fact that the issue has been
made a personal matter with the
president.
Members of the assembly assert
that the executive is without author
ity to take the stand that he has and
that the name Trades and Labor" has
been used without the consent of that
body. At the meeting Friday evening
there was a lively tilt over the matter.
The opinion as expressed there, was
that the union men of the city are
willing to be educated in this matter,
but that no stand will be taken either
for or against the proposition, as a
body. No stand has been taken as
yet and none will be taken, according
to chose in a position 10 know.

AT Rugby, in Pierce county, the
corn crop is very good, although lit

barley ground about May Is, with
check-row corn planter. Good cultiva-

The macaroni is on a flax ground, looks

ROSS, in Montraille county, has the
best crop in three years, and probably
the finest OF any of the demonstration
farms this year. The oats and peas
will go from two thirds tons per acre,
of the very best quality of hay. Corn
is trifie slow, but will doubtless pro-
duce a good crop of fodder and the
land will be in excellent condition to
produce crop of fax next year. The
flax ground was dragged several times
before seeding, and once after. Flax
was sown at the rate of eighteen
quarts per acre, and now looks like a
bumper crop. 1t is just beginning to

good stand. Alfalfa, bronze and tim
