A BLACKMAILING
PLOT TO EXTORT

New York, Aug. 22.-The hopeless
ness of n blackmalling plot to force
Charles H. Ebbetts. president of the

with a family picnic dinner at her
Center street west home Saturday
afternoon.
The fiower-bordered grounds of
the McNeal home lend themselves
admirably to out-of-door affairs, and
the event of Saturday was thorough
ly pleasurable. At FIVE O'Clock an
elaborate spread was laid beneath
one of the spreading trees on the
grass stones and the hours were
given to conversation and remin-
iscence.
There were twenty-five present.
Today Mrs. McNeal presided at n
luncheon of fifteen covers compli-
menting her son and grandson. A
close cluster of vivid shaded nasturt-
iums with dropping fringe of white
roses centered the table. Informal

HAVE YOU BEEN coUNTEp7

Every citizen of Fargo should ap-
point himself committee of one to aid
in making the census enumeration as
complete as possible.
There is no reasonable doubt but that
when the last census was taken.-this
city was not given the population to
which 1t was entitled. For the last
decade 1T has suffered from this 1ncom-
plete account For the next ten years
Fargo wants to be credited with the
population to which it is honestly and
Justly entitled
1t is not sufficient that local people
know the population of Fargo. The
true facts-the accurate count-must
be made and spread broadcast through
the country. See that you are counted
and that your friends and neighbors
are also listed among those who are.

QUARANTINE REGULATIONS.

There have been some complaints in
Fargo over the failure OF proper quar-
antine regulations. Several weeks age
there were some cases of diphtheria
and later other contagious diseases. 1t is
claimed that the people who were i'll
and the families of those afflicted fail
ed to observe the quarantine regula-
tions. The isolation Of persons afflict-
ed with such diseases is necessary for
the public health. 1t may work some
Inconvenience and hardship on the in
dividual-but the greatest good to the
greatest number cannot be overlooked.
ANY one who deliberately conceals the
fact that there is case OF contagious
disease in a house-and thus exposes
innocent people to infection-should be
severely punished.

Trains Going West.
DAMAGED BY FREEZING.

North Dakota fruit, shrubbery and
shade trees have been greatly damaged
by the recent cold weather which fol-
lowed the snowfall. Plum trees suffer
ed severely. Some of the trees have
been killed and none are likely to bloom
again this season. Apple trees have
suffered less and may put forth new
flowers. Currant bushes will not bear
fruit this year-unless it is where an
occasional bush was backward in de-
veloping
Isilacs and many other kinds of
shrubbery has been cut down to such
an extent it win be badly damaged
Many Of the varieties of shade trees
have suffered severely. The boxelders
were especially well advanced and
while it is unlikely many trees have
actually been killed, it may be neces-
sary to cut the damaged growth or
many in order for new shoots to start
this season.
AS SO4d "EdLIlEE LBtlbWiuB the SIX
weeks or more of delightful spring
weather has been a sad blow to those
who wanted to get their shrubbery and
fruit well advanced. Some of the more
conservative people who held back their
plants and shrubbery by proper
methods, win be far ahead OF their
neighbors
Those who have lost this year should
not feel that fruit Is failure in North
Dakota. 1t has been so often demon
strated that many varieties of hard
fruits will bear well here that no one
need give up the battle just because
of the misfortunes of one year.
Plant more fruit and decorative trees
this spring and be in shape to make a
better showing in the years to come

block recently erected and completed
in that section by the Northwestern
Mutual Investment Co. Other pieces

possible by the liberal plan under
which The Northwestern Mutual In

Banding together the hundreds Of

few dollars of the small investor this
sterling company is making great
strides as a solid financial institution.
Certificate holders receive a guaran-

Travellers Tales

On the corner OF Broadway and
Northern Pacific avenue there stands
brass railing, which guards win
dow or two in cigar store which is
presided over by two young ladies.
The owners of the store have been
greatly annoyed by men standing or
leaning on this railing ogling them,
and worse yet. shutting out the light
from the two windows In the front
of the store. The two girls are in
genious and when theJ asked pernis-
sion to rig up the railing with an elec-
trio battery that should have mild
battery concealed in the store the per-
mission was given them. This cleo
trio contrivance is so arranged that
by pressing button It will send the
electricity coursing through that brass
railing and anyone who chances TO
have his hand thereon will get q consid-
erable shock This shock is increased
greatly whenever the weather is damp
or rainy. Yesterday morning a we'll
known commercial man who frequent
ly makes Fargo was standing in front
of the railing smiling down at the
young ladies. He didn't know them,
but he was willing to. He placed his
hand on the railing and second after
he was making noise like stut-
tering student uttering q college Yell
He was stung. and as two or three
others were standing about and saw
the performance he was obliged to
go down stairs and set EN- up TO

FATE or THE UNSTABLE.

When the patriarch Jacob was de-

numerous progeny of boys he be-

upon his eldest son Reuben; "Un-
stable as water, thou shalt not pre-
vail" 1t seems as II Robert Marion
La Toilette, who represents the State
OF Wisconsin in the senate Of the
United States, is likely to encounter
the same fate.
Senator La Toilette is one of the
most brilliant of our senators, and
for his personal qualities is held in
the highest esteem. There was very
general regret among republicans
when he joined the Cummins bunch
and devoted his fine talents to the
task Of discredlting the policies OF the
republican party, while there was
corresponding elation among the free
trade remnant of the democratic
party But Mr.. La FoIlette's popu-
sANAAAe1 esAAA1AAe the mas not
lasted very long. This is sample Of
the kind of treatment he is receiving
just now from free-trade organs Of
the New York Times type:
There has not been in many months
such glowing argument on the nner-
its Of the railway question as that
which Senator La Toilette has just de
livered on the floor of the senate. ri
would be cruel to expect any man to
carry such head of steam as that
without relief at the safety valve. and
nobody could wish that the senator
should explode as the result of sup
preston Of language and ideas. He
must feel much caImer. and nobody is
any the worse. In fact, many are a
great deal better for the hearty laugh
which he gave them. He thought he
was tragic, but nobody could hope to

The Fiaht Picture roniuht.

There was a large audience at the
Fargo operahouse last night to see
the Wolgast- Nelson pictures. The
mill was pulled off in cloudy weather
and there was a down pour of rain
at the finish, but despite rhe adverse
conditions the pictures are excellent.
Fifteen OF the more important rounds
are shown.
The pictures show the fight was an
endurance contestant above all that
both men are devoid OF the knockout
punch. From the milling the indi-
cations are that Nelson underestimate
ed the ability Of Wolgast and was not
properly prepared. He was also anx-
ious to win inside of TWENTY-FIVE
rounds. In the twenty second round
1t looked like he would. Wolgast was
dazed and almost at Nelson's mercy
but Bat couldn't slip over the finish
ing punch. After Nelson had fought
himself out and stood blinded In the
ring, Wolgast didn't have the power
behind his blows to put his opponent
out. 1t was remarkable exhibition Of
the endurance of Wolgast and the
gameness of Nelson.
The pictures are interesting and
there viii no doubt be another large
house this evening to see the films.
