N. D. POLITICAL GOSSIP

4
Grafton Record: North Dakota had
forty-six organized counties when the
primary election was held in June.
In just half Of them there were enough
democrats to nominate county tickets,
while in the other twenty-three 1t was
"skiddo" and no ticket was named.
Various reasons are given for the
failure Of the democrats in these
twenty-three counties TO make show
| ing, but it is evident that the real
reason was lack Of enthusiasm.
| Minot Optic: In more than one
way Governor John Burkes speech
in this city yesterday afternoon was
fizzle and the small crowd who
stood through it to the end was great
| ly disappointed. OF course the gov
ernor was a trifle unfortunate In. that
ne was up against a proposition of
| vieing for patronage with such stellar
attractions as Cora, the Japanese
| Village, the Jungle and the Merry-go
round" but 1t was thought by his adj
mirers that he would make muca
His talk which dealt with the con-
servation of the soul in which the
farmer came in for scoring for his
downright wastefulness was long
winded and not at all what might be
expected of a presidential possibili-
ty." There is no getting around the
fact that the governor of North Da-
kota is somewhat eloquent as a speak
er and that he can throw the words
together in nifty phrases when he
wants TO, but certain portions of his
speech smacked highly of "hot air."
The democrats undoubtedly realize
their big mistake in getting Burke
to come here at this time. The peo-
pie didn't want to be told of the "cri-
sis" and hard times which the gov
ernor believes is staring them in the
face. Even now things are begin
ming to appear better than at first
was expected, but If people keep con-
tinually harping on hard times they
are sure to get them, whether they
want them or not. Let us have a
respite from this kind of calamity
talk. Let us look at things in as
good light as possible. Iowa, Min
nesota, Wisconsin and other states
are in the same boat with North Da-
kota, but there is really no use in
turning the limelight on this state
alone, because too much of 1t win
surely make eastern capitalists pull
their wad strings tighter than ever.
Calamity bowling" is like creating
talk about a run on a bank" the
more you talk about it the more peo-
pie believe 1t and as 1t grows in vol
une it becomes tragic reality. The
governor of North Dakota above all
should have enough faith in the state
to refrain from such references and
his managers should advise him to
change it.

Travellers Tales

They tell a rather good story on a
well known citizen who lives with his
wife at one of the leading hotels and
who is given to freshness once in
awhile. He had a date" in a near
by town and he didn't want his wife
to get onto him, so he told her he had
been called away to the twin cities on
business and she said all right and
he went. He was aFwuys writing to
his fair flower" meaning his wife,
when he was away from home and
many was the time that he cussed
himself for telling her he was going
to Minneapolis or st. Paul He knew
he didn't dare write a letter and mail
1t in the town where he was staying
for a week, and so thought up the
brilliant idea of writing her a letter
and having it mailed in st. Paul. He
wrote the letter and 1t was an affec-
tionate one at that and then he mailed
1t in an enclosed envelope to the post,
master Of st. Paul with the request
that he mail 1t there. This the post,
master did, but when the letter from
hubby was received by the lonesome
wife in this city there was this writ
ten thereon: Sent from - for
remailing." The explanations that
were forced from hubby when he re-
turned home didn't explain anything
and he Is still trying to make good by
the old story of having dropped the
letter and somebody setting UP lob
on him, but it don't go. There is a
certain coldness between the two that
is most apparent.
Ed. Wilde, one Of the big, fat good
natured travelling men who makes his
headquarters in this city, has returned
home from his months vacation trip
and he spent the most Of the time
down at the house" in Cincinnati, see-
ing the sights and having a good time
in general. Said he yesterday after
noon: II had the best time ever. Saw
some of the best ball games with Gin
cinnati and other tee AlS ever saw In
my life and the house treated me like
a prince. didn't have a dull moment
all the time / was away. There was
boat rides on ythe Ohio river, and sew
eral of the theatres are open so that /
had chance o see some of the best
vaudeville performers in the whole
world, and l was in clover all the
time. Still. I'm glad to.get back home
again, for to me Fargo looks good all
the time and under all circumstances. =
M. Dreyfus, who Is representing a
big drug house Of Minneapolis has
been in the city for a day or two,
awaiting the state druggists conven-
ton which will be held next week.
He said: From what hear this is
going to be the biggest druggists con-
vention ever held in the state of North
Dakota and our firm ~ taking a great
interest in 1t for we will have fine
exhibit in the Bowers block for the
visitors to Fargo to see. The druggists
as a general thing are royal good fell
lows and there will be many here I
have found business as fairly good all
over the northwest and the depres-
sion that expected to find doesn't

The Theatres
Fargo operahouse.

Upon the programme, for all per
formances given by Mrs. Fiske. APP
pears note to spectators which
touches upon one OF the crying evils
of theatre-going, and which is worthy
of emulation in every theatre in Am
erica. The note reads as follows
spectators are respectfully request
ed to remain seated until the curtain
falls on the last act. This considera-
ton is asked in order that the enjoy
ment OF the audience may not be i'm
paired by isolated examples OF
thoughtIess discourtesy"
1t Is gratifying to state that the re-
suits obtained are happy in almost
every instance, which may be due to
the wording Of the request, as 1t Is
calculated to stir the sensibilities of
even the most calloused offender.

Los Angeles, October 5.-The election
of Charles H. Huttig. president of the
Third National bank of st. Louis, as the
next chairman of the executive council

for the honor of entertaining the conven-
ton next year, and a hard fight is on
between these cities. The matter will be

PROCLAMATION BY
NEW GOVERNMENT

Lisbon, October Son Wednesday aft
ernoon the following proclamation was
issued by the provisional government to
the Portuguese people:
THE people, army and navy have sue
ceeded In proclaiming republic. The
Braganza dynasty, mischievous and dis
turbing to social peace. has been forever
exiled from Portugal.
"This rare event. representing the pride
of an untamable race and the salvation
of a country whose bravery is proverbial
fills with enthusiastic joy the hearts OF
patriots and finally ends our country
bondage.
Our aspiration for regime of liberty
stands revealed brightly in its virgin es-
sence.
Citizens, the present redeems and rec
ompenses for all struggles and the sor-
rowful approximations we endured. This
moment must be the commencement of q
period of austere morality and immacu.
late justice in order that the glorious
communion Of principles shall make our
sacrifices for our country the basis of our
political programme and our generosity
toward the vanquished the basis OF ouI
moral programme.
Citizens. let interest for our beloved
country animate you and single desire
that to be great-unite you. The re-
public has confidence In the people for
the maintenance of social order, respect
for justice and devotion to the common
cause of liberty. Consolidate with your
love and sacrifice the work which springs
from the Portuguese republic"
The revolution was decided upon only
at o'clock Monday night at the urgent
insistence of Admiral Refs Tho govern
ment had ordered the cruiser Don Carlos
to leave port the following day.
This tardy decision prevented proftins
by all the elements favorable to the rev.
olution. Some of the positions held by
the revolutionists In Lisbon have beer
reinforced as precaution against pos.
sible attacks by troops which have not
yet adhered to the republic.
