Attention is called to the fact that
tie state of North Dakota makes an
annual appropriation toward the state
fair which wopbles between Grand
Forks and Fargo, and also appropri-
ated money for the Mandan fair;
each of these fairs charge an admis-

there be any distinction in this regard
for the Industrial Exposition?
There is big expense in connec.

ed the loss or deficit would be enor-
nous. Upon the admissions and at.
tendance the success of this exposi.
tion depends, and any citizen who is
not willing to pay so cents to see the
exposition is certainly lacking in pa.
triotism.
The bad weather in Minnesota dur.

a deficit of nearly 100000; where
would the fair be at if no admission

Yesterday afternoon about o'clock
the fire alarm sounded calling the fire
department to the corner of the N. P.

The fire, which was of unknown

three or four inches away from the
car that served as a refrigerator for
the warehouse. 1t was but few Sec

There was little damage done other
than by water and smoke. The soap

ing the principal loss. The approx

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 22.-The de-

of the Chamber OF Commerce here to-
day and there was an excited rush to
buy wheat, with but few offers.
Wheat Prices Jump.
Prices jumped over four cents for
both December and May. December
opened on a range Of IL cents with
1.OS as top price, gain of about 4
cents from yesterdays close of 1.03 7-S
to 1.04. May opened at III and 1.12
against yesterdays close of 1.07 3-4
to 1.077-S. Prices showed steadily
rising tendency and there was not a
sale made at less than 1.0S for Decem-
Der and 1.12 for May during the first
hour. While the supplies of wheat
are large, the demand far exceeded the
supply, although large part of the
buying was on account of shorts GOV.
ering. Millers bought only for their
actual needs and made no hedging
sales.

Greatest Political. Landslide
Ever known in Canadian
History
Sir WiIfred Laurier, Most
Noted Man in British En-
pire, to Retire
(By Associated Press.)
'iu Form Conservative Ministry

| VIII 6OtUt CONSERVATIVE Ot"u0Sy
MONTREAL, Quebec, Sept. o.
Canada awakened today confronted by
striking new situation, developed
| from the fact that reciprocity with the
United States has been rejected, that
the Laurier government has been de-
feated, and that Il. L. Borden will
| shortly be called upon to form a con-
servative ministry.
Changes are Radical
That the changes enacted during
the past q hours by the registration
of the will of the electorate are radi'
cal is shown by the overwhelming
majority whereby the voters turned
down the agreement which Laurier
had made with the United States for
mutual removal of the duties on
food and other natural products by
the deleat of seven cabinet ministers,
out OF thirteen who went to the polls,
and by political landslide which will
retire to private life Sir Wilford Laur-
ier, acknowledged to be one of the
biggest figures in the British empire.
Quebec Remains Faithful.
Out of nine Canadian provinces only
Quebec, Laurier's native place, came
anywhere near remaining faithful to
him, and Quebec did not do so any
too we'll. Ontario, the greatest Of the
provinces, dealt Laurier a terrible
blow, going almost solidly against
him, and the same may be said of
Manitoba, and British Columbia. AL
berta and Saskatchewan, the two
great wheat raising provinces gave
mild support to the cause Of reciproc.
ity. The magnitude of the landslide
appears to have stunned the liberals,
who have held office for fifteen con-
secutive years, and who firmly be.
lieved that they were destined to re-
main in power for many years to
come.
Reciprocity Gained in West
