Owing to the fact that the N. P.
failed to provide a special train for
Slope Day, it was necessary for the
visitors from the towns west of the
Big Muddy to come on the regular
trains and as result the attendance
was not as great at the exposition as
it would otherwise have been. It is
not known why the special train ar
ranged for was called off. This is
as much mystery as the failure to
fix an excursion rate on the road af-
ter the positive announcement that
one would be inaugurated. President
Elliott of the Northern Pacific. wrote
Supt. Gilbreath two weeks ago that
rate Of one fare and one-third would
be charged for the round trip, but
this has not been done. The railroad
company has charged full rate to
all exposition visitors along its lines
With no extra privileges. The result
has been very disappointing. The
500 company has not only fixed rate
of one fare and a third for exposition
visitors but has provided special
trains whenever called for.
IA few visitors came in from Beach
and Dickinson on the morning train
from the west and a good many wait
ed for the afternoon train.
Quite a large party is here from
New Rockford, Eddy county, ana
many more are coming on FRIDAY:
Thursday is Fargo Day. The Fargo
Forum says a meeting has been held
by the Commercial club in that city
make arrangements for the day. The
Forum says:
Although late as it is, it is expected
that a large delegation will go out
to attend the fair on the day set
aside for the gate city inhabitants.
..If possible arrangements Will De
made with the N. P. to attach several
extra coaches on to the rear OF N. r.
train No. 7, which leaves Fargo ev-
erv morning at 1850 am, this would
oct the locals to the capital city IN
good time and the returning trip
could be made that night on No. 8,
arriving here about $3.50 pm, or the
next morning.
