Travellers Tales

Harry Coast, the well known actor
who is doing stunt out at the NORTH
Dakota fair with his partner, tells thi:
story of an old actor friend OF his:
This actor that speak of had a part
and his idea Of it was so confused and
wrong that 1t reminded me or my friend
whom / will call Ferguson.
ferguson awoke one morning after
having been out to a stag superior
know just what stag supper is. can
tell that you do by the color of your
nose-and Ferguson groaned and NUT
tered:
Dear me, what a headache
Then he screwed up his lips in dis
gust. The taste In his mouth was l1or-
rible. In fact he said that he felt just
as IL an old hen had Matched out her
brood therein. He thought he'd have
a look at his tongue, and reaching out
his hand for his hand glass he took
up by mistake a silver-backed hair
brush, &ra@
He stared at the bristIes quite
long while, then he shook his head
and solemnly said:
Ferguson, my boy, you certainly,
do need shave
When hit of sunshine hits We,
After passing of cloud,
When a fit Of laughter gifts We,
An yer spine is feeling proud,
Don't fergit to up and fling 1t
At soul that's feeling blue,
For the mint that We sling 1t
It's boomerang to you.

]. e. Jacobson, president of the State
bank Of Daisy in Barnes county, this
state. was an interested spectator at
the Fargo North Dakota State fair
yesterday and today. He il one of the
prominent bankers of the state and has
large acquaintance In this city as
well as in every other section of the
state. In speaking of the crops yester-
day he said: THE crops are averag-
ing fairly good considering everything
much better than the most optinnis-
tic even thought Of and we are more
than satisfied In some fields which
were given up as not being worth the
cutting the grain has been cut and
strange to say the yield was astonisll-
ing, 1t was so much better than was
expected, for as said before the own
ers had virtually given up all idea of
cutting 1t until persuaded TO do SO by
their neighbors. The crops are really
showing up well, and we are all pleas
ed over the results, for 1t is so much
better than we expected. Our COM
munity Is a. thriving one and we are
making improvements right along
Things are not half as bad as were
reported few weeks ago. and guess
we viii all have enough to live on
and be able to sell some besides"
r. J. Raymond, of the State bank at
Dawson was a business visitor yes
terday, az well as an attendant at the
fair, He is also member of the gem
eral merchandise firm Of Raymond e
Kepler, and says that business iii his
section Is excellent He liz making an
auto trip from his home town to Min
neapolis and expects to have d pleas

says. are about nat failures.

wyndmere Pioneer: The people are
every day getting heightened opin-
ion of the statesmanship of Senator
McCumber and those who voted for
the lew tariff law, and who when
they could not get quite oil they want
ed, could see that wisdom lay In its
adoption by tina Countrywide law Is
proving to be the greatest money
maker which the government ever
possessed. Outstripping all other
similar enactments by previous con-
crosses, the Aldrich-Payne bill Is al
ready a mighty bulwark of defense
for American factories, a wage raiser
for the vast army of men and women
employed by those interests, and an
Garner of revenue for the carrying on
Of the expenses of the national gov
eminent far surprising in worth any
like factor this country has ever
known. ..,f,
Every week Of added operation Of
the new tariff law brings these facts
more clearly to the knowledge Of the
public. Millions upon millions of dol
lars in tariff duties are flowing into
the United States treasury, their to-
tai amount greatly exceeding the, sum
received previously from the same
sources in similar periods. TIE rnsn-
ufacturing interests of tho land are
feeling the stimulus of this coaditi0n,
and are in turn imparting duickcned
life to every other class OF industry
and commerce allied to them. And
the number Of thesS is far greater
than one might casually suppoGe--in-,l
deed, 1t Is not easy to call to mind
any important undertaking in this
country which does not owe the con-
tinuance Of its success to the prosper
lty OF the working men and women of
the land. i
