The people of this city have
been clamoring for this sewer

past, and the news that it is to
be constructed this fall will be
welcomed by everybody. Not
only Wilt drain the streets and
keep them in good shape at all

Practically every basement under

Most Of. them are filled with
water. and have to be pumped
out very. frequently in order to
safeguard the health Of the peo-
pie Who,are compelled to stay on
the floors above them. The cost
Of pumping out the basement
under the First State Bank alone
amounts to $4,000 a year, and
the cost Of pumping out the base
ment under the Donovon Bros.

The city of Bowbells continues
to accumulate imprlov ovements both
public and private and will con
tinue to do 50 until doom s day.

SAMPLE OF OLD ..
STYLE NAVIGATION Az
Old Time Steam Boat and
Three Barges Still Lie on
Lake East of Town

A fair sample of old style
equipment for navigation may
be. seen on the DesLacs lake
about a mile south of the John
Crosby coal mine where the
steamship which up to three
years ago carried cargo between
Kenmare and the head of the
lake, now lies deserted partly
under water, This ship is almost
throughout made by hand. The
doors, window castings, propeller,
hulk, deck, and in fact every
thing except the iron machinery
was made in. a crude way. At
the present time this ship. as
we'll as four barges which at one
time were very profitable to
their owner, are now tied at
their old loading dock on the
lake and will probably never be
used again. ...
In the early days or before
the Sherwood branch of the
Great Northern road was built
in Renville county the farmers
across the lake were compelled
to haul their grain all the way
from 20 to so miles to market,
and}at the same time were COM
pelled to haul their supplies the
same distance. These ships then
came to the rescue and would
carry cargo between Kenmare
and the Canadian line. Going
up they would carry groceries,
clothing, farm machinery, and
in fact anything that was needed
by people residing at the head Of
the lake, while on the return
trip grain and other farm pro-
ducts would make their cargo.
Passengers were also carried
both, ways. Since the Thief
River branch was built by the
500 and the Sherwood branch
by the Great Northern, these

SURE that
TEDDY Will
BOLT PARTY
If He FAILS NOMINATION
Third Party Said to Be His

Washington, D. c.. May 2.-That Col
Roosevelt does not intend to abide by
the decision of the delegates in nomi
mating a candidate for the presidency
at the republican national convention
in Chicago next June, was the re-
ceived here as the result of a state
ment accredited to Thomas Lawson,
of frenzied finance fame and now one
of the warmest Roosevelt supporters
in Boston.
In answer to a letter addressed to
him, inquiring whether Mr.. Roosevelt
would head a third party ticket, Mr..
Lawson is said to drawn up a reply,
which it is understood was approved
by Mr.. Roosevelt. This reply, accord
ing to members of the senate, stated
that Col. Roosevelt would abide by the
! decision of the Chicago convention on
, ly on condition that the convention
| expresses the real will of the peo-
pie"
Supporters of President Taft say
| that Mr. Roosevelt believes that his
own third term candidacy is the will
of the people" and that the plain
meaning of Mr., Lawson's letter is that
unless Roosevelt is nominated he will
bolt the party The letter is said to
add that if the convention does not
express the will of the people, the
fight will then continue"
The rumors that Mr.. Roosevelt has
laid all his plans to bolt the republi-
can party and start a third party has
been revived generally throughout the
capital. Politicians argue that there
is no longer any doubt that Mr.. Roose-
welt will bolt. The colonels support
ers deny this charge vigorously, say
ing that Mr. Roosevelt has lost fights
before, but always has remained with
in the party.
! Those who are convinced that Col
Roosevelt intends to bolt, however,
/ point to the great number of contests
that have been started by his mana
gers in nearly all the states where he
has been defeated. They argue thai
his bitter attacks on Mr.. Taft make it
impossible for him to turn around and
support the latter should the conven-
: ton renominate the president They
say that having fought Mr.. Taft so
hard in the pre-convention campaign,
Mr.. Roosevelt would not find it posi-
bic to remain silent throughout the
general campaign, and that there are
w. Perkins, Clifford Pinshot and James
! Garfield, who are ready to make the
bolt with him. They say that the
! prospect that Roosevelt will bolt
F., raises a nice question as to the atti-
tude of such insurgents as Senator
LaFollette, Senator Cummins and SEN
ator Borah. 1t is the general impress
sion that none of these men would
join a third-party movement.
| The one thing on which Mr.. Roose-
velts action is said to depend is the
character of the candidate to be nomi-
mated by the democratic party at Bal
I timore. If. Governor Wilson or
Speaker Clark should be nominated,
it is said that Mr.. Roosevelt will hes
itate about heading a third-party tick
ct, but if Governor Harmon or Mr. I'm
| derwood should be nominated, it is
said that the Roosevelt supporters
will urge their candidate into the field
as the candidate of all dissatisfied
radicals of the republican and the
democratic party

Daddys Bedtirne
~ The Friendly
OfOTV Pussy Cat Strays
From Home

%AWo pairs Of very wide eyes stared up into daddys a Jack and Evelyn
called for the bedtime story. "
"Pusse Prue was a friendly cat" daddy began. Her mother, a
staid old mouser, told Prue that it was not wise to make friends of
every one.
when the gate was open Prue would sometimes slip out and go off around
the neghborhood visiting Then, when she was missed, Prues little mistress
would hunt everywhere for her. Perhaps, because she was always peHed SO
much and given something nice to eat when she came back. Prue enjoyed
getting lost
"One morning when everything was very quiet in the house Prue stretched
and yawned on the rug on the front porch.
"Ah' she said, as Neddy rushed out or. his way to school, perhaps he'll
leave the gate OPEN Neddy nearly always did leave the gate open.
"Pussie Prue waited until Neddy had got around the corner Then she
rose, stretched herself and crept to the gate.
away. She was very fond of the fish man, for, when she followed the cook to
the gate, he generally threw a piece Of fish to her.
I'm go down there and meet him. purred Pusste Prue.
"She skipped across the street. just missing a automobile that came dash
ing around the corner
ION the other side she stopped to peep into an open gateway, and the
gardener, who was working in ne of the flower beds, threw a stone at her.
Luckily It just missed her. and Prue went on her way somewhat out of
temper.
"see the pussie! See the pussieP cried a little girl coming out of a gate
way a little farther along. %#@"
"Catch her! Catch herr cried her brother, and Prue had to dash into n,
other garden where there was a fence to get out of their way.
when she reached the fish mans wagon he did not know her. Scat that
cat out of here he said to his boy She'll be stealing some of the fish next

A HARMLESS WAY TO
DARKEN THE HAIR
A LITTLE SAGE AND SULPHUR
MAKES GRAY HAIR VANISH
A REMEDY FOR ALL
HAIR TROUBLES.

Who does not know the value of
Sage and Sulphur for keeping the
hair dark, soft and glossy and in good
condition? AS a matter of fact, Sui
phur is a natural element of hair,
and a deficiency of it in the hair is
held by many scalp specialists to be
connected with loss of color and vital
ity of the hair. Unquestionably, there
is no better remedy for hair and scalp
troubles, especially premature gray
ness, than Sage and Sulphur, if prop
erly prepared.
The Wyeth Chemical Company of
New York put out an ideal preparation
of this kind, called Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy, in which Sage
and Sulphur are combined with other
valuable remedies for keeping the
hair and scalp in clean, healthy condi-
tion.
If your hair is losing it's color or
constantly coming out, or If you are
troubled with dandruff or dry, itchy
scalp. get a fifty cent bottle of Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur from your drugs
gist, use it according to the simple d.
r%ections, n see what a difference a
few days treatment will make in the
appearance of your hair.
All druggists sell it, under guara
tee that the money will be refunded II
the remedy is not exactly as repre-
sented. Agents, Fout & Porterfeld.

WHEAT CONSUMPTION.

1.-THE increasing use Of wheat in the
world is commented upon il the fol-
lowing editorial from The Minneapo-
lis Tribune:
The government crop report of last
week confirmed the general favorable
agricultural outcome Of h country
and of the northwest in particular.
There seems to be no question but
that record grain production was scor-
ed in the principal crops
The declining price tendency in the
market has reflected this large volume
harvested and now in the process of
marketing. but there has been a grad
ual enlargement Of the demand for
these grains and a tirmer tone has de-
veloped in the market because of the
increasing commercial demand for the
offerings.
1t is freely predicted that north
western flour mills will do the greatest
volume of business in their history.
With ample supplies of raw material
at their door and spring wheat pro-
duction more closely approaching the
size OF the winter wheat crop than it
probably has before, the domestic
Hour market becomes a larger field for
the northwestern millers.
The latter half of August was mark
cd by a revival in the -four demand.
Since then there has been no abate-
ment of the activity. Stronger mar
kets abroad nave wideued the demand
and export trade seems to be more
limited by the indifference of the mill
ers, who are heavily booked for the
domestic account, than by haggling
over prices by the foreign buyers.
gThere has been, also, an increasing
demand for the raw material wheat, as
sgeit as ffour from abroad. The early
reports Of crop damage in western
Europe due to the excessive and almost
Continuous rains in the leading inn
parting countries do not appear to
have been exaggerated. The buying
power in the international market for
good dry wheat to mix with the i'm
paired quality of their 1912 harvest has
already turned these countries to the
Emitted States for supplies so that the
big domestic wheat crop in the north
west will have a broader consumption
than usual this season.
At the present time supplies have
been coming in freely and have been in
excess of the current needs so that the
large demand has not been reflected in
1lie market by stronger prices, but
there are indications that the CONNER
ieial absorption is beginning to have a

CENTRAL MARKET.

For many years The Forum has CO.
operated with local people who were
advocating a central market for Far
20. 1t has been a long and a hard
fight. 1t has not been won yet-but it
must be conceded nat a great deal Of
Roadway has been made when the city
council has appointed a committee
which is authorized to select a site
al a cost of $4,000.
This means a greatly advanced step
and it cannot be long before a central
market will be secured. The central
market should appeal to every one
who has to eat. 1t should interest the
wealthiest families and should be
more directly beneficial to the poorest
residents. 1t should be an important
factor in reducing the cost of living.
The grocers will not be injured by
The plan. The meatmarket men may
lose some trade. Every other class Of
Business in the city should profit by
the movement. The livery men, the
general merchants, the restaurant
Keepers and many others will come in
for direct beneits-while every citizen
Will profit more or less directly.
4The city council is to be c~ongratu-
lated on taking this advanced step.
The members have the heartiest CO.
operation of the commercial club and
a. committee from that organization
will confer with the council committee.
Every citizen in Fargo is interested
and will hope for an early adjustment
Of the central market proposition.
