ACCEPTS POSITION
IN The FAR WEST
CHESTER A. JONES LEAVES FOR
UNI TO ACCEPT LUCRATIVE Po-
siTIoN IN sEATTLE-cLEvER
YOUNG NEWSPAPER MAN
LEAVES NORTH DAKOTA.

After three years service as city
editor of The Forum, Chester A. Jones,
one of the most, prominent newspaper
men in the northwest, left Saturday
evening, for Seattle where he accepts
very fine position, in the form Of
an advancement.
Following the example ofyscores Of
other North Dakota and Minnesota
newspaper men, he fell a victim to the
lure of the west which he desires TO
see. While everyone has argued that
Horace Greeley referred to North Da-
Ikota, the far west I is the objective
point this time.
Besides Identification with The For
UNI, Mr.. Jones was connected with
Minot. and Grand Forks newspapers
for some time. During his service in
North Dakota he has accumulated
knowledge of the state which has made
him a leader in his profession, 1t is
with no small degree of regret that
his many Fargo friends, including ev-
cry member of The Forum, see him
leave this city.

WILL NOT HAVE FAIR
Citizens So Decide at
Meeting Wednesday
Evening

At a meeting of the street fair com
m1ttee and a number of business men
at which the adivsability of holding
street fair this year was thoroughly
discussed after the reports of the
different committees were received, II
was decided that under existing
conditions. the shortness of the time
in which to get ready for 1t, with the
uncertainty of being able to make a
good showing, it was thought best
not to hold one this year, and make
arrangements for the holding of a
fair on a much larger scale next
season. The committee was in.
structed to make Its report to this
effect at the next meeting Of the
Commercial club.
1t was brought out that the farmers
had not had notice OF what the
premium list would cover, and as a
consequence would not be in posi-
tion to do very much in the way OF
competing for prizes.
In order to have something that will
to certain extent take the place OF
the street fair, committee of three,
composed OF L. o. Vessel, AL. Simonet
and A. F. Koslosky. was appointed to
work up some special attraction forthe
September market day, which falls
on the 24th Of the month.
some OF the suggestions offered IN
THIS regard were, that the business
men of the city raise a sufficient
amount to pay for the rental OF the
Milo theatre and a good vaudeville
team to give two free performances
during the afternoon Of market day
tor those coming into the city to dc
their trading, hire band for the day
and pull oft few sports. And OF
course the merchants will offer special
bargains tor this bumper market day.
