THE MUSIC FESTIVAL.

The biggest musical event ever at
tempted in Fargo or the state will &C.
cur in Fargo the last of March.
Madame Schumann- Heink, the
worlds most famous contralto. will be
the leading attraction. The ST. Paul
Symphony orchestra, one of the great
est musical organizations Of the north
west, has also been engaged for the
big event
The festival is to continue three days
and hundreds Of music loving people
from all over the state are expected to
attend.
This big musical event will be under
the auspices Of the Fargo Conservatory
OF Music. The preliminary arrange
naents were made by Director George
Since his resignation the burden of the
work has fallen on Acting Director
Boehmer. Coming into 1t at this late
date makes the task much more diff
cult than had he originally had charge.
But the friends of Mr.. Boehmer and
the conservatory are certain he will
make an artistic and financial success
Of the festivaI-despite the handicaps
under which he will labor.
The event will be held in the big
Hrmory at the agricultural college as
that has the largest seating capacity of
any auditorium in the city.
All the musical people of Fargo and
others who have the best interests at
heart should cooperate in every pos
sibls way to make the festival a sue
cess. Fargo has a reputation all over
the west as a financial, commercial
and educational center. There is no
reason why it should not hold a SINH
lar position in the musical world, and
it will-if the proper spirit is shown
by the public.

OUTFITS NIGHT AND DAY.

1t is evident that farming operations
are being rapidly changed by the
methods made possible by the intro
duction of the large traction engines
in blowing, narrowing and drilling.
During the past two or three months
Professor Bolley has received a large
number of letters from farmers who
are making arrangements to run their
breaking plows night and day
This is especially true in the east
ern part of the state where prepare
tons are being made on the new lands
for cropping of fax. All of the ope-
rations for breaking to seeding are
conducted at one time. The large en-
gines viii pull the plows followed by
rollers or packers, next by discs, next
by peg tooth harrows followed by the
drill, after which is dragged a weight
ed stone boat or float to firm down the
seed bed.

VIOLENT CRIMES.

LawlessnesS particularly in the
case. Of murder and other crimes Of
violence--seems to be increasing in the
United States. Such increase is not
confined to any one section Of the
country, but is common to all,
This is essentially commercial age
and--not an age when crimes Of vio-
lence should flourish. But flourish
they do. despite all efforts to prevent
them. Statesmen and criminologists
are giving their best thought to the
solution of the problem.
1t is indeed national problem and
one to be considered in a broad ma
tional spirit, It is folly, therefore, for
one section of the country to point
to another in a holier- than thou spirit
Little is to be accomplished by it in
remedying situation already serious
