college as candidate for governor, and There Is no
question but Mr.. Worst would make a formidable
candidate were HE to- enter the race, says the Bis

cal battle and it is stated that the board OF trustees

of $500 In his salary the increase being made at

It seems probable that the gubernatorial con-
test among the Republicans will be in the nature OF
a free-forall as between Buchanan johnson AND
Wilson Buchanan will have the support OF the IN
surgents and Wilson and johnson will no doubt d.
vide a large vote especially in THE northern and
northwestern part of the state. Whichever candl-
date of the Republicans nominated, there will be
an aggressive fight put up by the Democrats at the
fall election to retain the governorship within the
Democratic party. THAT the office is party asset
is evident from the fact that North Dakota now has
Democratic limited States senator, pretty gener-
ally Democratic state government, and for time,
when the illness of Senator McCumber was critical
it seemed possible that the state might have two
Democratic senators representing solldly RepuD-
lican state in the upper house Of congress

ting tired of the oveweening ambitions OF fractional
leaders, whose tactics have trned the state Demo

Quoted with some regard for cleanliness and pro-

The HobbIe Skirt.

For all the fun that has been made
of hobble skirts. and for all the fact
that they are soon TO vanish in the in
fluX OF empire gowns, for the rest of
the summer and part of the fall they
are still with US, and It behooves us
still to observe the different forms
which the abhorred "shackle" may
take.
There Is the broad. tucked flounce,
cut straight and with the full skirt
gathered into it. Sometimes there is
a straight vertical band down the
front of the skirt also, reaching from
the belt to the "hobble."
Then there is the stitched band into
which the skirt is gathered, with dou.
/, bic rows OF buttons down is five OF
six lines of stitching.
Stirring. moreover, is in favor and
makes the very easiest way of gaining
the shackle effect. Two or three rows
are all that are necessary, and the
style is very good on thin wash
gown.
Quilting, ruching and fringlng all
come in for their share of work as
shackle producers. They are stitch
ed below the knees, SO as to give the
effect without the discomfort and are
therefore, hailed by the maiden with
