MORROW BOUGHT A Dog
Fargo Man Makes a Purchase and
Turns II Over 10 a Leonard Man.
Fargo Woman Claimed II.

Some time ago Otto Morrow Of this
city, esquire of the order of Elks,
while making his regular trip from
Fargo near Leonard. this county, came
across two men in the road with a
nice looking pointer dog. says The
Leonard Journal. He asked what they
would take for the dog and one of the
men said the dog was his and he
would sell 1t for SIS.
Otto paid the SIS, and loaded the dog
into his auto and took it to Fargo.
He then phoned to E. w. Arnold at
Leonard that he had fine dog and
wanted Ed to take care of 1t for him.
Ed was willing and went to the train
next day and received the dog, took
him home, tied him up and gave him
the best of care.
On Wednesday morning lady came
out from Fargo, described the dog and
claimed immediate possession, and IL
refused would at once phone for the
sheriff. Ed saw he was up against it
and surrendered the odg. We pre-
sumo the intention of the boys in the
matter was entirely honest but Ed
inadvertently disclosed the fact that
his own dog was missing and the
hunting season so close. There may
have been some collision. but we will
give the boys the benefit of the doubt.

ARRANGEMENTS FOR PARADE
ON LABOR DAY DISCUSSED
A. l. LOOMS Selected as Head Marsha-Roosevet Recep
ton Committee Spend Busy Evening Platform
VIII Be Built to Hold 1900 People

A. l. Loomis was selected by the
Roosevelt reception committee as the
chief marshal Of the parade which will
be one of the features Of the day. Each
or the labor organizations of course
win have its own marshal, but Mr..
LOOMS will be at the head Of the pro-
cession.
There was good attendance a. the
meeting held last night at the COM
merclal club rooms of the different
committees and a good deal of work
was accomplished. w. d. Sweet was
given charge OF the platform and
ushers
The greatest kind of an effort will
be made to avoid the confusion that
took place on the visit of President
Taft to Fargo two years ago, and an
efficient force of special policemen will
be here to prevent disorder. None but
those who hold tickets will be per-
mitted to go upon the platform, and
each ticket holder is expected to be
in his seat at least five minutes before
the meeting is called to order.
As to Decorations.
w. d. Sweet OF the committee on
decorations stated that 1t was the de-
sire of the committee to decorate only
the streets on which the parade would
move, but that it was hoped there
would be q general decoration of the
entire city. 1t was decided to string
streamers between the trolley posts
and to place on each of the ornamental
lamp posts an American flag 2x4 feet
these flags to hang over the street.
It is believed that this will give a
splendid effect. The district to be
decorated comprises about six blocks
from Third avenue on Broadway south
to Front street and from Front street
to Eighth street south and on Eighth
street to the street that leads 60 the
park.
The Platform.
The platform will be level and will
be capable Of holding 1900 people.
The speakers stand will be raised
somewhat so that all can hear him.
The work of building this mammoth
platform will be commenced early next
week. The seats will be so arranged
that all can hear and see Colonel
Roosevelt There was some talk at
the meeting of having the platform
built with two wings, with the speak
ers stand in the middle. This, it was
thought, would give those sitting be-
hind the speaker a better opportunity
Of hearing, but the plan was aban-
doned and the straightaway platform
plan adopted.
To Furnish Autos.
The Fargo Automobile club has been
asked to furnish autos for the parade
and the members have kindly con-
sented to do so, so that in addition to
those who will march and ride in car
riages there is likely to be a big au.
tomobile parade. The programme
which appeared in The Forum a few
days ago was unanimously adopted
