Roosevelt, Angry At

NEW YORK, Aug 17.-There Is
much speculation today as to the next
important development In the New
York situation, following the defeat
of Col. Roosevelt by the "old guard"
yesterday, when the state committee
recommended that Vice-Presidenr
Sherman act as Temporary chairman
Of the state convention, Sept. "a, and
Col. Roosevelt's hot retort In state
ment In which he says he didn't want
to address the convention unless II
stood for a clean-cut, progressive
policy.

but that IL would hurt IL neither

Although repudiated today, IL does
not necessarily mean that Col Roose-

"BUTTON, BUTTON, WHO'S
GOT A BUTTON

!
/ The Cavalier county seat committee
with considerable enterprise have de-
signed and arr distributing a large red
button bearing the motto IL am for
Cavalier for the county seat" The
committee omitted an important matter
in the design. Like a diamond worn
on the shirt front of millionaire these
buttons represent value. Unlike the
diamond however the value is not of an
intrinsic nature. If farmer felt like
investing in hundred dollar diamond,
his neighbors might think he was a
little extravagant and dudish, but
when he got tired of it, or got hard up,
ne could easily convert it into cash.
but the button in order, to show its
worth to the lockers on ought to have a
blank space on it, on which to write
the amount the button will cost the
wearer in case the sentiment expressed
thereon is successful. To most farmers
of this county the figures would be SlUO
or more. While he could never sell the
button for cash he could hold it as
evidence of title to his share of fine
building in Brynjolfson & Laxdal's
Addition to Cavalier-and if misfortune
overlook him later in life, he would
always have the button to leave to his
children.

PROSPERITY.

One Of the phases of the present
acknowledged prosperous time in this
country is the universal discomfort with
the prevailing high prices of every
thing, including labor and its products.
Really, the only great difference be-
tween prosperity" and "hard times
Is that in the former everybody. has
employment. While the higher wages
of the former disappear almost as
quickly at the meat market or grocery
store as do the lower wages
of the latter, yet everyone who desires
now has the wages to spend. It is true,
however, that all things. do not rise In
price in exact proportion when the
rising is taking place. Perhaps sala-
ried men as rule are the last to get
the raise" but in most cases it comes
at last. The only exception is the
newspaper fellow-he has to pay more
for his paper, ink and help, but the
subscription price is just the same all
through the years, be they fat or lean.

Last week communication on the

ship expresses himself The following
is part of the criticism of the Chron-
icle on the Glasston letter.
"Since the correspondent (?)who wrote
the article hadn't courage enough to
sign his childish production. it is quite
evident that no Glasston farmer ever
wrote it, but rather that it eminated
from one of the "hayseeds'' that weilds
the quill in the office of the Hamilton
Independent or the Pioneer Express"
Then after quoting a paragraph OF
the Farmers article the Chronicle
adds:-1Does it read as it any Glasston
Farmer wrote it? Well, hardly"
From the above it would seem that
Editor Fairchild has far higher opin-
ion of the erudltlon of Park township
''citizens" than he has of the Glasston
FARMERS" though we hardly see why.

A CANDIDATE RACKET

The Cavalier politicians are appar
emily attempting to make point or
two by selecting candidates for county
office from different towns with the
promise of the support of the western
half of the county-Sas against some of
tae old officials who have. been living
for some time in Pembina by the grace
OF the people of the county who elected
them to Office here. We doubt if this
will cut much figure in the primary
vote Amy candidate who would run
on such a platform would naturally
and of right be opposed by the eastern
part OF the county at the primaries
and therefore would not gain much if
anything. The only thing that Cava-
hef, however, can promise any candi-
date is the support of Cavalier city,
which in the case mentioned would
mean the loss of the Pembina city vote
Outside of the two towns we doubt if
will make very much difference to any
candidate whether he is for Cavalier
or Pembina personally, though of
course 1T would make a difference if
he should be an active partcan for
either. Personally we would not expect
a citizen of Cavalier to be in favor of
Pembina-and if he were candidate
for any office would not oppose him on
that ground alone. But if anyone
makes his candidacy on the ground of
opposition to Pembina, he cannot ex-
pect his bread to b. buttered on both
sides.

points where the usual temperature

Kansas City, Ma, April 25-A storm
of snow prevailed this morning all over
Missouri, Iowa, northeastern Arkansas,
eastern Kansas, Tennessee and as far
south as Montgomery, Ala. The snow
melted almost as fast as it fell, but at
times the fall was heavy. In Oklahoma
western and southern Kansas and the
greater part of Texas the weather was
clear. Temperatures ranging from two
and three degrees below freezing to
three degrees above freezing, were re-
ported from all points in Kansas, Mis-
souri, and northern Oklahoma. Freez-
ing temperature prevailed at Memphis
and killing frosts were reported from
western Kansas points. The general
