ELks AFTER STATE MEET.

In the morning large delegation OF
Elks leave Fargo on special train
with a band--for the state meeting at
Grand Forks. Fargo is after the next
conventional the rotation system,
which they advocate, is adopted.
The locals favor holding the state
meetings each year according to the
age of the lodges. This, it is claimed,
will prevent bitterness over the selec-
ton Of the annual meeting place.
There will be nothing compulsory
about the towns accepting. If, for any
reason, the lodges are not prepared to
entertain in order they can waive their
turn in favor of the next oldest.
Grand Forks was the first lodge or
ganized, Fargo was second. The locals
would like to entertain the visitors in
1912. 1t is also proposed to give the
president and secretary of the state
association to the lodge securing the
next convention.
Grand Forks has arranged two big
days Of entertainment for the visitors
and there will be no dull moments.
The Elks should be encouraged in
their efforts to land the next state con-
vention. The antlered tribe is becom-
ing numerous. The members are usu-
ally boosters. They will give wide
advertisement TO any city in which
they are royalty entertained
Other than Elks will be interested
in the efforts to locate the next state
meeting in Fargo. A large delegation
from this city will have a big influence
in securing the honor.

Tales Of the Street

Sen. James Kennedy of Fargo was
very much surprised the other day
while on a recent trip from Sheridan,
Wyo.. back to Fargo. at porter on the
train.
It was near the end of his trip and
the genial and liberal Fargo senator
was preparing to leave the train. The
porter gave his coat and hat the ac-
customed little whisk with his brush
and stopped down to pick up the con-
tractors grip from the seat to carry it
out to the platform of the station.
Senator Kennedy reached in his
pocket for bit of change to hand the
negro for his trouble and was dumb

back into his face, showing a row of

FOLK OR CLARK?

Missouri democrats are much exer-
cieed as to whether Folk or Clark win
get the endorsement OF the democracy
pf Missouri Tor the presidential nomin-
,4ion.
Last year the democratic state con-
vention expressed its preference for
Mr.. Folk. In recent statement Con-
gressman James I. Lloyd made it clear
that the convention OF 1909 acted
merely for that year. He said:
Mr.. Folk has the endorsement OF the
party a. Tar as the convention of last
year was authorized to make 1t. Mr..
Clark was a member Of that conven-
ion and would not violate any OF its
mandates. Mr. Folk. / am confident,
would not wish In 1912 the instruction
81 the delegates TO the National Con-
vention from Missouri unless ii was
the deliberate judgment Of the Missouri
democracy at that time that he should
be the standard bearer OF the party.
The 81. Louis Post Dispatch-w

makes this comment on Mr. Lloyd's
statement:
AS matter Of fact last years con-
vention had not q shadow of authori-
zation to designate the choice Of the

Some idea of the enormous amounts
of food required for the rations of this
large body of troops may be gathered
from the quantities of the various
articles of diet ordered for the two
days. These comprise sixty tons OF po-
tatoes, twenty tons Of cooked meats,
sausages, corned beef, ETC., ten tons OF
butter. twenty tons of onions, six tons
Of jam, three tons of dried vegetables,
two tons of tea. These comestibles are
divided into convenient small packages
and served out to the 100 regimental
messes and canteens, where they are
reapportioned to the occupants of the
tents, which each contain ten men.
The days rations for each man con-

great many people were unable to
gain admittance to the church on ac-
count of the numbers attending.

have done credit to many q body Of

credit on the instructors.

THE MAINE DEAD.


Now that the hulk of the Maine is in
sight-more attention is directed to the
bodies OF the scores Of men who went
down to death in the performance of
their duties when their ship was de-
stroyed.
These men have lain unrescued for
over thirteen years. and the country
has gone about it's business as if there
were no urgent duty tdward them to be
attended to.
1t may be doubted If such strange
apathy has ever been manifested be-
fore in the history OF America. 1t
would seem that the government had
secret reasons for not wishing to have
