EXHIBIT BY The
SCHOOL FOR BLIND
LATE GETTING THEIR EXHIBIT
ESTABLISHED BUT 1T WAS ONE
OF THE MOST INTERESTING ON
THE FAIR eRouNDs-IN AID.
MINIsTRATloN BUILDING.

The state school for the blind al
Bathgate was late getting established
In the administration building at the
fair grounds but nevertheless has a
fine exposition of the work being ac-
complished by these unfortunate stu
dents. The exhibit is in the southeast
corner of the building near the butter
exhibit and has attracted a great deal
of attention.
There are displayed first the books
from which the children learn to read.
The words are all spelled out in raised
dots, the characters resembling very
much the Morse telegraph characters
The tablet and stylus used by the
blind In writing letters is also shown
and by 1t one can see that with the
aid of memory Of the necessary char
acters making the letters, it Is an easy
matter for the blind to communicate
with others by letter.
There Is a handsome lot of bead
work, crochetting, woven work, wick
er baskets of all kinds from the little
work basket to the big clothes recep-
tacle. There are nets Of all kinds and
neatly made, clothing
which will compare favorably with
that done by those who can see. whisi0
and floor brooms and a number of
other things showing the class of edu-
cational work done by the institution.
This state institution is not as we'll
known as some of the larger and older
ones as it is of comparatively recent
creation, but it is doing.a great work
for the blind Of the state and deserves
pie and those who make the appro-
priations.

LARGEST AUTO
TRAFFIC in YEARS
LARGEST NUMBER OF MACHINES
IN FARGO DURING FAIR WEEK
IN ASSOCIATIONS HISTORY -
THEIR BUSINESS EQUALS THE
STREET RAILWAY CO.'S.

This year there has been a bigger
automobile business than ever before
In the history of either the state or
county fairs held in Fargo. In COM
parison with the business done last
year 1t is phenomenal. AS a usual
rule the townspeople not owning ma
chimes and the fair visitors from out
Of the city have patronized the city
street car service more extensively
than the special automobile and taxi
cab lines inaugurated for the week. But
this year things have been different
and the automobilists seem to getting
all Of their share of the traffic.
The automobiles do not make a
trip without being overloaded, and at
any hour during the day without being
amply filled At all hours OF the day
passengers are waiting on the corners
OF all the down town streets signaling
them before they have even stopped,
and there Is generally a wild scramble
for seats, many riding without and
standing on the footboards.

WARD PoLIcE-cITY GOLFERS
GROW HEAVY WITH FINES.

That there are some peopIe in the
world who cannot stand prosperity is
apparent by the increased number OF
out-of-town automobile drivers doing
business in the city, who were hauled
into police court this morning for
violation OF the motor ordinances dur-
ing the great rush Of business yester-
day. Friday was the busiest dav the
automobilists have had this week and
they We're rushed continually from ear
~ morn until the first rays of the
morning sun today as some did not
stop all night Enjoying the most
prosperous day OF their stay in Fargo
and IN an effort to take care OF more
business, they became reckless and
violated every one OF the city's motor
ordinances.
Yesterdays arrests numbered for
ty-three and this morning the number
was increased to sixty. At the rate
the drivers continue to disregard the
city's rules, the police department ex-
pect yesterdays list will have been
doubled by this evening. During +ba
earlier part of the week all Of them

ordnance, but as the fair neared it's
closing day and with the coming of
greater crowds the chauffeurs were
not so careful and became quite reck.

Lind Will NOT
RECONSIDER
NOMINEE OF MINNESOTA DEMO-
Gratis IS STILL POSITIVE
IN REFUSAL.

Everett, Wash, July 30-Former
| Gov John Lind of Minnesota, demo-
cratic nominee for governor of that
state, refused today to discuss the
nomination further than to say that
his statement to the Associated Press
last night in which he announced
that he would not accept the nominal
ton, contains his final decision. To es-
cape interviewers and messages from
Minnesota the ex-governor went on a
trip to the woods.
Mr.. Lind, his wife and daughter,
will sail from Seattle for southeastern
Alaska on the ship Humboldt Sunday
morning. They will remain in the
north for two. or three weeks, and on
returning will spend a day in Everett
and then go to California. Whether
Mr.. Lind will continue his pleasure
trip after leaving California has not
been decided, but the ex-governor
makes it clear that he is in no hurry
to return to Minnesota and takes small
interest in the political affairs of that
state.
Positive Statement.
The fact that the democratic con-
Vention nominated me in spit of my
announcement that would not accept
does not change my attitude in the
least" said Mr.. Lind. Il will not re-
enter politics under any circumstances.
TWO weeks ago I wrote to the chair
man OF the Minnesota democratic
committee stating that would not re-
enter politics. This decision is ire
Yocahle and am surprised that the
convention went ahead and nominated
me anyway. will not accept.
I am out of politics for good and
all, and 1t might as we'll be clearly
understood from the start
Asked If he would refuse even il
elected, Mr.. Lind said:
That is an impossible situation.
What 1 have already told you covers
that question" .,-.
Advices from st. Paul state that
the democratic organization refuses
to consider the Lind incident closed.
Frank A. Day and other leaders today
expressed the hope that Lind will
later permit his name to be used with
the understanding that his friends will
make the campaign.

the Interior Department, and is said
to have aroused Mr.. Taft's keen
resentment
Mr.. Taft declared the dignity of
his office was being attacked and
he would be unfaithful to his trust
if he submitted longer
He accuses Pinchot of having
taken his stand against Secretary
Ballinger wholly upon evidence ad-
duced by Mr.. CLAWS and without
regard for the evidence on the other
side, on file in the Interior Depart
ment.
Pinchot's Successor.
A. F. Potter, who has been named
by Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
to succeed Mr.. Pinchot as chief of
the bureau of forestry, was appoint
ed to the service from New Mexico.
Mr.. Pinchot, while declining to
express a personal opinion about his
removal. has made it plain that his
battle with the secretary of the in
terror and the administration was
not ended.
Political observers in Washington
declare that the situation created
by this development is the most
tense in many years. What the
outcome will be no one is willing
to prophesy. In the House of Rep
resentatives Friday Speaker Cannon
lost his first fight to the insurgents,
who, combining with the Demo-
Gratis, caused to be adopted an am
endment to the Ballinger- Pinchot
inquiry resolution so as to take from
the Speaker the power to appoint
the House members of the joint
committee of special investigation
Representative Poindexter, of
Washington, was one of the most
active of all Republican insurgents
in the House fighting the Admins
tration programme. He was the
only Northwestern member to act
with the insurgents.
Notes of Interest.
Representative Sulzer of New
York, has introduced a bill provid-
ing that the federal government loan
to the different states sums, not ex-
ceeding million dollars annually,
for building roads, the states to pay
it back in yearly installments.
The house committee on agricul-
ture will give the agricultural de-
partment of the government approx
imately sl3,0O0000 to run it during
the coming year.

Book of the Dead,

The Book of the Dead is q most re-
markable literary relic Of ancient
Egypt, of uncertain date and origin,
but well known before the kings of
the first dynasty. Probably the col
lected work Of many minds in differ
ent ages. it was regarded as the work
Of the god Thoth and therefore of d.
vine authority. dealing mainly with
the dead and their future state. Some
of its texts. prayers. hymns and ritual
were used BY the predynastic priests.
and parts Of the book are said to be-
long to period fifty centuries before
the Christian era. Copies Of it were
placed in the tombs, and texts from
it were inscribed on collins to preserve
the dead from dangers and to direct
them to the boat Of Ra on their way
to the hall of Osiris. which was the
goal desired. The oldest existing papy-
rus copy Of the book was written for
"Nu. the son Of the overseer of the
house Of the overseer Of the seal Amen
hetep and of the lady of the house
Senseneb" and probably belongs to the
early part of the eighteenth dynasty.

COMMERCE COURT is PLAN
Taft Would Give Power in Initiation
to Interstate Commission.

Washington, D. c., JAN 1O.-Pres-
ident Taft's promised message on the
subjects of rate regulation and the
control of the so-called trusts" fol-
lows closely the line of his speeches
in the past 1t suggests the creation
of Court of Commerce, with pow
err to review the acts of the Inter-
state Commerce Commission, with
some changes in the power and
jurisdiction of the commission itself,
and the enactment of Federal in
corporation act, as means for per-
hitting those combinations which
exist legitimately to continue to do
business and to reap the benefits of
combination conducted along lawful
lines.
Federal incorporation is suggested
as a means of so controlling these
combination so that the good and
the bad may be distinguished and
kept separate. Provision against the
watering" of stock is suggested,
and the creation of holding COM
panies" is provided against.
The President is not opposed to
all forms of pooling of rates He
would permit pooling in some in
stances under the regulation of the
Interstate Commerce Commission
Representative Townsend, of
Michigan, has introduced bill pro-
viding for an interstate commerce
court to be composed of five cir
cult judges, who are to be assigned
to that court by the chief justice of
the United States for term of five
years. No two terms are to ex-
pire simultaneously
