Trouble started with the Chautauqua
"dinkey" again this week and Tues
day morning is was necessary for the
passengers to hike about -our miles il
order to get to town. Manager Dunn
Of White s. Henderson IS clothing store
was one Of those who "hiked'' and it
wasn't necessary to be within more
than forty rods Of him to find out what
he thought Of the Chautauqua railroad,
and especially Of the fellow that runs
the "dinkey." The Chautauqua is an
ideal place to spend the summer if one
was sure of transportation. The trans
portation they now have is and has
been for the last few years considered
a joke and it is the only thing that
keeps the Devils Lake Chautauqua from
becoming one of the most popular sum
mer resorts in the Northwest. We arc
boosters for the Chautauqua and want
to help forge it to the front, but il,
order to do so it is necessary that diff
ferent transportation be secured. There
is no getting around this fact and tn,
sooner the majority Of the people begi1
to realize this fact and act accordingly
the sooner will our Chautauqua com
mence to improve.

Fargo fans will have the opportunity

tomorrow when the Crookston team
comes to battle with the Merediths.

Crookston sluggers.
Crookston has not met defeat this

Two old time Minneapolis semi pro

secured to play second base and short

weak spots in the infleld and Fargo
