of December, decision to that effect
practically being made at a general

time for the farmers to get away
from home for a two or three day
stay, as we'll as the best time to get

Vaten be considered, as Mr.. Trovaten
had possibly been more active in the
matter than anyone else in the city
and had conducted much of the i'm
portant correspondence with the mayor
Of Rouen. France, and the French
government.
Public Spirit Talked.
When the communication was read
from the Mott Commercial club asking
that representative from the Fargo
business mems organization be sent to
attend the formal opening of the new
Hotel Brown in that city, there was a
great deal of talk about the public
spirit of Fargo r. S. Lewis, in sug-
costing the name of Mayor Lowell as
the delegate from the commercial club,
stated the city was always free to ask
conventions to meet here, but was
short on r@ciprocating and going when
other cities called.
Mayor Lowell stated he was glad
enough to serve the city in assisting
in bringing conventions here, hut he
did not feel it was the function of the
city administration to do that which
was the work of the: commercial club
organized expressly for that purpose.
He said it was very infrequent when
the larger cities, in going after big
conventions, sent their mayors to do
the inviting, but that the representa-
tive men of the commercial clubs were
the ones to go. Treadwell TwicheIl in
dorsed that sentiment and referred to
the spirit of Grand Forks, which was
to hold conventions twenty-five days
out of next June in that city.
At last it was left to the chair to
name committee to represent the
commercial club at Mott on March "a
And in addition to this communication
from that city, another was read from
the same place in regard to the rail-
road service there 1t was feared that
owing to the discontinuance of the Star
route stage line, the trade of Fargo
jobbers would suffer and go to Aber-
deem merchants instead. Secretary
Baernstein had already acted on thu
matter prior to the meeting, commune
eating with Congressman Hanna in
Washington, who had taken up the
matter with the postoffice department
with the result that nothing at pres
ent could be done, but felt that in the
near future the trouble would soor
right itself, when a regular train serv'
ice was established with Mott.
