BY THE BUREAU OF
STATISTICS.

THE BOSTON ELECTION.


The New York Evening Post, in les
comment on the recent non partisan
election in Boston. says, In part:
THE demonstration fails, but the
principle remains the same" This ut
teranoe of the professor or chemistry is
very much what mindful reformers
will have to say about the result of
Boston's mayoralty election yesterday.
It was felt all over the country to be
big with consequences reaching far be-

were everywhere watching eagerly for
the outcome, to discover whether a
method had been found of eliminating
party politics from municipal elections,
and system devised by which char
acter and intelligence might easily rise
to the control of public affairs. But the
high hopes have been apparently blast
ed, Mr.. Fitzgerald has been chosen
mayor in spite of the united opposition
of the Boston press, and in the teeth Of
extraordinary efforts put forth by the
best civic forces. on an unprecedented

1000. Thus the man whose former ad-
ministration of the mayors office had
been held up before the voters as a
glaring example of the misgovernment
and waste and corruption to be avoided,
and to break the power of whose politl-
cal machine the scheme of absolutely
non-partisan nominations had been
adopted, energies victor.

Polly Of The Circus.

Even the hundred or so people VINO
we're forced to stand at the Fargo
operahouse last night were pleased
with the presentation OF Polly Of the
Circus. 1t is a. sweet little comedy
drama and delighted the audience.
Ida st. Leon is charming little Polly.
She is young, pretty and talented
and what more can anyone want ?
The supporting company was very
satisfactory, especially Mart Il. Kelsey
as Jim, the canvasman.
The dog and pony performances and
the equestriene work on the stage
was realistic to a nigh degree. The
last scene in the last act is a. beautiful
thing, showing the parsoR and Polly
on the deserted circus grounds in the
night, with the circus wagons disap-
pearing in the background and the
light shining fun on the church and

LuIius sehuft lnvests.

Harvey N. D., Jan. 1s.-One of the
biggest changes in the Harry mer-
chantile circles that has occurred for
years. came to head this morning
when deal was put through whereby
the Chicago sore, one of the oldest
and most widely known stores in the
city, takes over the entire stock OF
merchandise, furniture and fixtures OF
the Harry Cash bazaar.
Julius Sgutt, proprietor of the Chi
oago store and ]. 6. Senger, secre-
tary and general manager Of the Har-
vey Cash bazaar, are both exceedingly
popular throughout the entire Harvey
country and the purchase of the Har-
vey Cash bazaar stock by Mr. Sgutt
will no doubt result in a valuable in-
crease in the patronage of the ever
popular Chicago store.

NO CURE FOR A COLD.


1t has probably occurred to innum-
cradle sufferers from what is generally
known as the common cold" that it
is about time for medical science
which has COPIED successfully with
much more serious problems in disease
to abate distressing malady, which
has been aptly designated the "scourge
OF the north" In every household
there is a favorite remedy, but, as a
matter of fact, no effectual cure Is
known.
In a recent issue of The British Med
ical Journal 1t is pointed out that the
disease is not one. but many, it's symp-
toms being due to various germs.
The widespread belief in cold baths
and the process called hardening is
rejected. Even the hope held out some
time ago by DR.. Benham, in his report TO
the British Medical association. that a
vaccine may cut short an attack or
make it tolerable, is noC received with
favor because the microbe of the COM
mon cold is not always the same
hence it would be necessary first to dis
cover the identity of the particular
bug or use a mixed vaccine.
