vorites right amongst US as there
are anywhere else in the State.
Five purses Of gold, each of S25.,
complete the magnificent list OF
prizes.
PEOPLE WILL DECIDE
All of these prizes are to go to
the most popular young woman,
and the decision is to be made by
the people themselves. 1t is for
the people to say, who shall have
these prizes--and that the people
are speaking in thunder tones" is
evidenced by the whirlwind of in
terest that marks the progress of
the contest.
1t should be borne in mind that
these awards are to be made
without the cost of a cent to the
winners. 1t should be kept in
mind that while there are geog-
raphical limitations for the nom
nations, there is no sort of limit
in the matter of vote getting.
Votes may be secured anywhere
in the United States, and as many
may be cast as may be desired,
SC long as the simple rules in the
contest, explained in previous
issues of the TRIBUNE are COM
piled with.
Interest for the readers of the
TRIBUNE is probably keener as
regards the Seattle Fair trip than
some of the other prizes. This is
perfectly natural. The young
ladies, whom the people by their
votes are to select are to go to the
Alaska-Yukop-Pacifc Exposition
as representatives of the State of
Missouri, and are to be accompan-
led by at least one high official of
the State. In fact the idea of
awarding these trips as prizes in
this contest had it's origin in the
fact that the State has not made
arrangements for official repre-
.sentation at the Exposition,
coupled with the determination of
the TRIBUNE and the newspapers
associated with it in the enter
prise, that the State should be
represented in the best possible
manner.
The only way t % secure votes is
to clip the coupons from the
or the ST. LOUIS STAR
or by subscribing for these pa
pers at the following reduced

OBITUARY

MARION THOMAS

The death angel robed in white
came to our home on last Thurs
day morning, Apr. %, 1909 and
claimed our darling baby boy.
Death opened the gates from earth
to heaven. Sad Is the home and
vacant his chair, which never can
be filed. He fell to sleep to
awaken with Jesus. Our hearts
beat with love for him. No
human tongue can tell what q
sweet child he was, a rose bud
plucked early in life. 1t is so
hard to give him up, but God
knows best. He leaves to mourn
his death a mother, father and
five brothers, Pearlic, Earnest,
Monta, James, Johnnie and one
has crossed the shore before him
FATHER AND MOTHER.
We desire to thank our friends
and neighbors for their kindness
during the sickness and death of
our son.
MR.. AND MRS. JNo. THOMAS.

MRS. LIZZIE BAIT.

Mrs. Lizzie Bait, nee Hulsizer
was born in Warren County, New
jersey, Sept. 10, 1868. She was
happily married to Mr.. Bruno
Bait, July Is, 1891. For about
three years Montgomery has been
the home of this estimable couple.
Because of affection Sister Bait
has been unable 70 mingle with
the people of our city, but every
one, who met her held her in the
highest esteem, with sincere re-
gard and love. For several years
she was a great sufferer; but in all
her suffering she maintained a
beautiful, Christian spirit. Hell
suffering though great, tended to
develope, tone up and strengthen
the elements of her beautiful
womanly character. Her last
words were words of prayer.
AS the sun with rosy tinted
fingers pushed open the gates of
m orning, Sunday Apr. %, 1909,
her spirit went home to the
Blouse not made with hands,
eternal in the heavens" At the
time of her going from us she was
fou rty- tive years, seven months
and fifteen days old.
The funeral was from the home

Editor Andrews has made good
with the Fargo Daily News and

the suspension of one is the
logical result.

Humble, indeed, were the be-

humble than the statistics of
the directory indicate. The
churches were without excep-

were homeless wanderers over

best they could in rude hostel

hordes of devastating insects.
Stout the hearts that put high
hopes in the future of North
Dakota: the many either rusr-
ed away in despair, or, hoping
against hope, remained solely
because circumstances forbade
their departure. Was Bishop
Stanley one to fear and trem-
BILE, one to pause in impotence
or abandon the field open to
him by the hand of Providence?
Not of this timid fibre was the
spirit of Bishop Stanley. He
set himself to his work reso-
lutely and earnestly, travelling
through other states in search
of aims to help him to get food
and shelter in his chosen home
and, at the same time, to aid
him in building modest chapels
where the need was urgent and
preserving his forlorn mission
aries from encouragement and
starvation. Well, score of
years have gone by, and what
see we today? The state of
North Dakota, one of the most
promising commemorative in
the American Union-its early
Universities buried in oblivion
its prairies proving themselves
most fertile lands; its cities and
villages busting with COM
merce and industry; the hun
dreds of thousands of it's popu-
lation rejoicing in prosperity
and social happiness. And the
church in North Dakota? 1

to build churches in the near
future, 3S; academies. 6; paro.
chial schools, 81; hospitals, 4.
But figures only tell of num-
bers; to realize the absolute
fact, we must recall that the
churches in North Dakota are
in great number superb monu-
ments of architecture, that
schools, academies and hospit-
ais are possessed of splendid
buildings and thronged with
indwellers, that priests are
housed in most comfortable
presbyteries and hold gathered
around them a numerous Cath
olic laity, fervent in their faith,
generous in their offerings, en-
terprising in their temporal
callings, and no less 80 in all
that makes for a strong and
prosperous Catholicity in the
diocese of which they are proud
to be the children-priests and
laity, honored and esteemed in
their several communities, i'm
all things men of that vivid de-
votion to religion and that
largeness of mind and of heart,
such as insure to Catholicitv a
continuous and most prosper
Gus development, placing the
diocese of Fargo among the
most flourishing dioceses un-
der the sway of the American
hierarchy.
The condition of the diocese
OF Fargo, as it unfolds itself to
the most casual observer of to-
day, was the pride, the joy of
Bishop Stanley. Oft he spoke
of it, oft he exulted in it. And
