FIFTH ANNUAL FAIR

The Fifth annual fair under
the auspices of the Richland
County Fair association will be
held September "a, %, 20 and
80, 1910. If the present plans
of the management are carried
out it will be the biggest and
best fair yet held by the associ-
ton. Among the features of
the weeks program this year
will be a Home Coming Day,
on which day a large number
of former citizens of Wahpeton
and Richland county are ex-
pected to be present. 1t is also
planned to celebrate the open.

MORE HARMONY

1t appears that even With tEne
county division question out Of
the way Ward county is not yet
solid for G. A. johnson. Not
only are two republican papers
of Minot supporting Burke, but
there has been a little rumpue
in the republican county or
ganization. Percy NJ. Cole was
the choice of the majority of
the committee but Mr.. Johnson
objected, and yielding to his
wishes, Judge Palda was nam
ed.
This angered Cole and though
an attempt was made to placate
him, it seems to have teen un-
successful. At any rate, he ie
going about declaring that he
will not be read out of the party
by c. A. johnson. All of which
goes to show that harmony is
not hanging around the repub-
lican camp in sue h great
chunks as was supposed.

Her house needed papering-
Nothing would better serve for
the purpose than a ton or two
of love letters. Mrs. Dixie
plastered the walls and the
ceilings and used the photos
for roofing and with the surplus
built a chicken corral. Over
all she placed this large sign:
"Love Letter Shack. Tack

Mrs. Dixie was literally driv-
EN- off her claim. She came to
Seattle in 1909 and found en-
ployment. Here, however, her
beauty attracted other wooers
and though she fought them
off with her rugged South Da-
kota experience she at last fell
victim to Cupid and Seattle

At one time Mrs. Dixie had

RECEIVES MANY
PROPOSALS
Merry Widow Receives l,OOl
Chances and Accepts the
Last One

This is a story of real merry
widow and exactly 1901 men.
Each and every one of the
thousand and one begged for a
chance to marry her. T h e
l,OO1st man is the lucky one
and the wedding will occur
shortly.
The merry widow-she is al
so young-is Mrs. Rilla May
Dixie, a phone operator. 1t is
questionable if Mrs. Dixie ever
saw single one of the 1901
But that did not detract from
the ardor of their love epistles.
They wrote from the north and
south; east and the west. They
were old and young men, tall
and fat. All sent their pictures
"a full bushel basket. They
kept up such a bombardment
of the pretty little widow that
she was forced to leave her
claim in South Dakota.
Mrs. Dixie was formerly an
Iowa girl-Ottumwa being her
home. Three years ago she
married and with her husband
went to South Dakota. He was
killed in a wreck and Mrs. Dixie
bravely faced the world and
took up a claim.
She called her place "Ot-
tumwa" and it is still known
by that name in South Dakota,

Newspapers then devoted COL

and that was the beginning of
the worst.
At first letters came by twos
and threes. but finally the rural
delivery man had to put on an
extra mule to aid in hauling
the mail out to "Ottumwa."
There were letters, fat ones, too,
photos, pictures, boxes of candy,
dress goods, articles for the
toilet, perfume. plumes, hat
pins, ribbons and pet animals.

SECRETARY MEYER DEFIED

The Taft administration
seems born to trouble through
ripping up the Roosevelt poll
cies. The latest development
is the refusal of Chief Con-
structor of the Navy Capps to
retire at the request of Secre-
tary Meyer. The attempted re.
organization of the staff of the
Navy has created two factions
who are as hostile to each other
as though they were at war.
The chief trouble has been that
like DIR. p. NJ. Rixey the sur
geon-general who demanded
that he be given the title of an
admiral of the line and be al.
lowed to transact business with
the President independent of
his superiors, they all want
the high titles.
Secretary George Won Lon
gerke Meyer does not seem able
to control the belligerents hav-
ing mo experience in naval
matters, his business being cot
ton manufacturing and bank.
ing with politics as plaything.
Perhaps by ordering out the
horse. .maries he can keep Capps
out of the navy department for
q while at least.

Vice-President Sherman to,
day declined to discuss Presi-
dent Taft's reputation of any
connection with the deal by
which Roosevelt was defeated
tor the temporary chairman
ship.
Roosevelt. who is jealous of
anyone who attempts to bedin
his spotlight parade, is pre-
pared to make a finish. fight
against Sherman.
Roosevelt wound up the first
day of his pilgrimage into the
west by placing himself direct.
ly in opposition to Vice: Presi.
dent Sherman. Speaking to-
day in the Independents own
country, he warmly endorsed
State Senator Frederick Daven-
port, who is staunch progres
sive and whom Mr.. Sherman
has said that he would not sup
port. Mr.. Sherman was out cf
town today and did not see
Colonel Roosevelt.
Colonel Roosevelt spied Sen.
ator Davenport and greeted
him warmly. AS soon as he
began his speech he turned to
the senator and said:
II am glad to see you on the
platform, Senator Davenport.
The only kind of politics l care
for is the kind OF politics in
which decency is combined
with efficiency. hold that the
only way in which a politician
can really serve his party is by
helping that party efficiently to
serve the people. Because the
senator and the men who have
acted with him have stood for
this principle, am glad to be
on the platform with him."
There was more cheering
when the colonel uttered these
words. When he could b e
heard again, he added:
"You will at least notice that
my utterances are free from
ambiguity"
Senator Davenport supported
the direct nomit alton bill in
the legislature and has been a
warm supporter of Governor
Huges' policies. lone |
Roosevelt's move in endorsing
him is regarded as his first step
in the New York state fight.
On leaving New York, he said
there would be 20 compromise
so far as he was concerned. He
has let it be known that he was
reluctant to take part in the
stru ggle, but now that he is in
it, he will fight hard.

GERMS IN HER SYSTEM.
Every Woman Should Read this Advice
and the Generous Offer that Goes
With II

The number OF diseases peculiar to
women is such that We believe this
space would hardly contain a mere
mention of the names, and it is fact
that most of these diseases are of a
catarrhal nature. A woman cannot be
well if there is trace OF catarrh in her
system.
Some women think there is no help
for them. We positively declare this
to be mistaken idea. We are 50 sure
of this that We offer to supply medicine
absolutely free gofv ALI. cost in every
instance where it fails to give satistac-
ton, or does not substantiate our claim.
With this understanding, no woman
should hesitate to believe our honesty
of purpose, or hesitate TO put our claims
to test.
There is only one way to overcome
blood. You may use all the snuffs,
douches or like remedies for years with
out getting more than temporary relief
at best. Catarrh in general is a
diseased condition Of the system that
shows locally most frequently in dis
charges from mucous membranes.
Local treatment should be assisted by
internal treatment for the general dis
eased condition if a complete cure is to
be reached. That internal treatment
should be scientifically devised and
faithfully administered.
Rexall Mucu-Tone is scientifically
prepared from the prescription Of An
eminent physician who for thirty years
made catarrh his speciality. This
remedy is admirably adopted to the
treatment of the catarrhal ailments of
women. 1t purifies and enrichens the
blood, tends to stop mucous discharges,
aids in removing impurities from the
system, soothes, heals and strengthens
the mucous tissues, and brings about a
feeling of health and strength.
We want you to try Rexall Mucu-
Tone on our guarantee. If you are not
benefited, or for any reason not salts
fed, simply tell us and we will hand
back your money. Rexall Mucu-Tone
comes in two sizes, so cents and $l.00
Remember, you can obtain ReXalI
Remedies only aC--C. A. Plath.

and there win also be plenty of room
for the storing of automobiles for

The lower floor with the street en-
trance on Fifth street will be used
largely as work room. The machine
