RUN FOR GOVERNOR
FARGO CONGRESSMAN is IN RE-
REiPT or MANY LETTERS FROM
ALL PARTS or STATE URGING
HIM TO BECOME eURERNA.
ToRiAL CANDIDATE.

Tnis mornings mail brought me a
number Of letters from different par
ties throughout the state in regard to
the governorsllip," said Congressman
Hanna to Forum representative at
his office at the First National bank
this morning. Before / returned home.
received quite number OF COM
munications from North Dakota men
In regard to my entering the race, but
at that time had nothing to say ais
wanted to wait until I returned to
Fargo before giving the matter any
serious consideration"
Mr. Hanna's morning mail was quite
heayy and he had not yet undertaken
the task Of replying. He said when
ne left Washington week ago, every
thing was cleaned up in good shape
and there was not a letter unanswered.
Then he showed The Forum represen-
tative all that had accumulated in the
brief interim. which amounted to a
big drawer full OF important papers
and communications.
Now that am back and have just
a little breathing space" continued
Mr.. Hanna, Il am in a better position
to give some of these matters a little
more serious thought. These letters
here, pointing to the pile Of papers
on his desk in front of him, ARE those
which came I'm this morning, and near
~ everyone of them ask me If / am
TO be candidate for governor or urg-
ing me to make an announcement.
i feel that it is too important a
question to form an opinion hastily
about, SO 1 want to take Just a. little
time before give out any statement.
! haven't simply my own wishes to
consider, but we must all do what is
the best thing for the party. That is
why want TO talk the whole thing
over deliberately with friends, not only
my Fargo friends but my friends over
the state.
Next week am going up to Minot.
where have been invited to speak at
the opening of the land drawing. Sept.
s, and I have an appointment to
discuss the question there with some
prominent republicans there. Then
have an engagement to be in Grand
Forks, Devils Lake and other places
on the return trip and / will see GER
tain parties there about the same
matter.
but then" he concluded, there is
no need to rush matters, you know.
for there is plenty of time between
now and next June. Should my friends
decide that it is best for me to become
candidate for governor, shall make
an announcement to that effect before
return to Washington this fall"
Congressman Hanna will return to
the national capital earlier than the
converting Of congress, as he expects
to arrive there before Nov. 10, as on
that date one Of the important in
vestigating committees has its open
ing session to attend to some work
before the opening of the two national
bodies In December. Mr.. Hanna is a
member Of the investigating commit
tee in question, which has been APP
pointed to look into matters in con-
nection with the department of the
interior and the government land
office.

SALE OF School
LANDS UNCERTAIN
INQUIRIES HAVE BEEN MADE RE-
GARDING THE SALE OF SCHOOL
LANDS IN cAss COUNTY, BUT
COMMISSIONERS HAS MADE NO
ANNOUNCEMENTS AS YET.

The sale of the school lands in Cass
county this year is an uncertain thing
at the present time.
There has recently been received by
The Forum and County Auditor Leech
a number of requests for information
regarding the selling Of the school
lands in the county. These letters
have been turned over to Alex Nc
Donald, school land commissioner or
the state
There is a feeling over the county
that some of. the school lands should
be sold. In letter received by Audi
tor Leech this morning one party
comes right out and plainly says that
he would desire to see a certain Sec
ton in Cass county sold.
In the plain letter the prospective
purchaser says that the land is easily
worth it's appraised value and prob
ably more could be secured for 1t.
He is anxious to see it turned over to
some individual who will improve 1t
and cultivate 1t on a more economic
basis.
Commissioner Mcdonald has made
no definite announcements regarding
the sale of the lands in this county.
He has not even said that there would
be any sold this year, It is under
stood that some Of the school lands
in this county will be sold, providing
there is big crop here this year.
Unless there should be big crop the
commissioner feels that the farmers
win not bid the terra firnaa up to its
appraised value or better, when It was
put up for auction.
The information from Mr.. Mcdonald
relative to the sale Of the school lands
in this county will be awaited for with
interest by numerous farmers over the
county.

In THE HOTEL LOBBIES

We had rather a severe frost Sum
day night that may have done con-
siderable damage" said z. ]. Forest of
Cando to Forum representative at the
Elliott hotel today. II hope ii won't
do us up completely in our part of the
state. But there was a killing frost
north OF US and we caught part OF it,"
Mr.. Forest is down in the city for
several days on business and reports
everything in Towner and Ramsey
counties to be doing nicely under the
present circumstances and weather
conditions. He is looking in good
health and says the summer has been
pleasant in the northern part Of the
state, though there will be a slight dis
appointment in the crops, though they
will be much better than last year.
You see we expected such a ire
mendous old-fashioned kind of crop
this year." he said, with all that
spring rain we had, that when the dry
spell came in June and July 1t put a
crimp into your expectations. But the
crop is going to be an improvement on
what 1t was last year."
There was quite a party OF Grand
Forks people in the city today, includ-
ing Mrs. G. N. Nelson, Mrs. Martha
Alderman, Miss Emma Nelson and
Roland Nelson. All were guests at the
Elliott hotel.
Among the guests in the city today

Grand Forks, representative at the re-
cent session OF the legislature for
Grand Forks county. Mr. Collins is
stopping at the Metropole hotel while
down in the city attending to some
business matters.
Last August we had touch OF this
kind OF weather." he continued, and
I'm wondering If this is the kind of
thing we can expect every year. I'd
had to think it. There's one thing
sure, the hunters won't like to have it
turn awfully warm next month when
they start out. But 1t would just be
about like the weather man to reverse
conditions, just to hear the complaints

YEARS AGO AND WHO MADE

DIRECTORY IN 1881.

The following named persons living
In Fargo at this date, are all that re-
main Of those living in Fargo in the
spring OF 1881 (thirty years ago) ac-
cording to the first city directory Of
Fargo published at that date.
There are those now living In Fargo,
who were too young In 1881 to have
their names In the directory. There
are also others. who undoubtedly came
to Fargo during the summer and fall
OF 1881, after the directory had been
published: but so far as the city di-
rectory records them, the following

ELY REVENUE HOLDS
A VALUABLE TONNAGE
Mill IS the Next Thing to Be
Installed at This
Property.

After working four months TO further
develop the ore deposits in the Ely Reve-
nue. mine the company has suspended
work for the present and Will probably
not resume until next spring. when III
is expected financial arrangements VIII
be completed for the construction OF
mill on the property, says the Ely EN-
positor.
In the four months some 500 feet OF
work was done and tho ore reserves
In sight were doubled and one of the
reasons for suspcndinG work AT this time
Is because the plans for the mill are
still incomplete and IL is not known just
where II Will he erected For that rea-
son the company management does not
want TO make a big ore dump which
might prove 10 be located in the wrong
place and be expensive to get into tho
mill. The ore Is well blocked out and
when mill construction begins IL can be
readily mined.
Forty thousand tons or ore averaging
$40 In gold is now in sight between the
400 level and tho surface. Indications
arc that the ore Will be found TO go to
great depth and when the mill dues-
ton is decided and work resumed again
larger hoistmg plant will be put up to
gain greater depth, as the preesnt equip
ment Is insufficient during the winter.

FINE GRINDING AT
THE MIAMI PROPERTY \

The problem OF the most efficient
cuuipmcnt for fine grinding is sun re"
ceiving attention at the Miami lniil
The first three units OF the mill we're
each equipped with one Sc, of burch
rolls for Intern ediatc grinding and two
Trent chilean mills FOR fine grinding
The Rurch rolls were intended to take n
feed containing subes up to half an inch
i'm size and 10 discharge the material at
approximately cnc-cighth OF an inch IN
size The chilean mills were 10 take the
latter feed and grind II TO 40 mesh. and
have been doing so approximately in
practice, 0.029 Of an inch being the exact
size.
The fourth section contains one set
Of Burch rolls and two eight foot Hard
inge couicaI mills. These have been Civ
ing fairly satisfactory service, but owinS
10 conditions of feed IL has been thought
desirable To increase slightly the fine
grinding facilities. not only to take care
OF any inequalities OF feed but also 10
assure "A sufficient capacity. should one
OF the fine grinding units be temporarily
out OF commission. In consequence the
nfth section will contain one Burch in
termcdiaie roll and three Evans Waddcll
chile mills and the sixth section will
three eight foot Hardinge conical mills
with beycl gear drive
These three Evans-W -Waddell mills viii
have rollers much heavier than those in
