Two ATTORNEYS TALK
They Made the Addresses on Reform
at Mems Meeting at the Y. M.
G. A. Yesterday.

Attorney Crum and Attorney Ten
neson were the two speakers yester-
day afternoon at the mems meeting at
the X. M. G., A., and there was a large
attendance. The subject Of both the
speakers had to do with the question
of reform which is just now being en-
gendered by the personal workers orr
~ganization which is an outgrowth of
the Billy" Sunday meetings, which
were held a few weeks age Mr..
Crum talked Of the reforms In the city
OF years g and told how he had been
employed as attorney in some Of them
and of their not being Of lasting eff
feet, because they were not backed
by the people as a whole. He told
how he had first defended and then
afterwards prosecuted the bIindpiggers.
In the latter instance he had been
employed by the Moorhead saloon men
who thought that because they were
paying for a license they should re-
ceive the trade from Fargo, where
there was no license. He gave many
interesting incidents of the crusades
at various times and was given much
applause.
Attorney Tenneson talked along the
same lines, telling of the reform waves
which ever and anon swept over the
city. He talked of the honesty in
these reforms and like the previous
speaker took the position that publicity
n of the great essentials in sue
The speaking was preceded by the
usual devotional exercises and song
service.

The fund is short SIP, and it is

the amount 1t will take just that
much more than the committee has
on hand to make up the $500 to
hnance the entire celebration, and this
will give fireworks as well as a band
at night.
1t is known that the parade will
take place at 1880 in the morning
and that it will be a fine one, with the
Fargo council Of the u. c.. T.. taking
a big part in 1t. Indeed, the boys OF
the grip will be expected to look after
the children with the assistance OF the

part of the day.
There will be prizes offered for the
various events that will be pulled off
in which the children alone will have

other things.

this week and will soon formulate a
programme for the entire day.

greatly in making several children

Fargo To HAVE
Big new Store
RuMoR, EVIDENTLY BASED ON
GOOD GROUNDS, THAT OLSEN
BUILDING WILL BE OCCUPIED
WITH MAMMOTH MODERN DE-
PARTMENT STORE.

For some time there have been
various rumors afoat as to what
would occupy the store now used by
the w, O. Olsen Furniture Co. when
Mn. Olsen would move into his new
building which he is now erecting on
Broadway.
Saturday a well defined rurnor was
In circulation that a large department
store, backed by Fargo and some OUT
side men, would occupy the building.
The Forum investigated and learned
that there is considerable truth in it.
Mr.. Hancock, the owner, had nothing
to say, but yet he would not deny
that such a move was contemplated.
From what could be learned, it is
the intention of h promoters Of the
new business industry to put in a
strictly .up-to-date stock of goods
usually found in a first-class depart
ment store and to occupy the entire
floor space of the building, which would
give them three stories and a base
ment 80x150 feet, making it of the
largest stores in the city. If the deal
goes through it will be quite an addi-
ton to the business interests of North
Broadway, as it will tend to draw
people to that section Of the city for
trading purposes IT will require very
little remodeling in order to make the
building suitable for this purpose. and
it is said that this work will be begun
just as soon as Mr.. Olsen is able to
vacate. The opening Of the new Minot
cutoff, as well as the prospective in
crease in population OF this section Of
North Dakota, is given out as the rea-
son for engaging in this line by the
men who r backing the movement.

some Will NOT
have A VOTE
rWo CLASSES OF PEOPLE HAVE
CUT THEMSELVES OFF FROM
PARTICIPATING IN COMING
PRIMARY, SAYS COUNTY AUDI
TOR LEIGH.

~ There are two classes Of voters who
win not be able to secur ballots on
Wednesday for the primaries accord
ing to County Auditor Leech.
One of these classes is the man who
absolutely refused to sign an AFFIDAVIT
when it was presented to him by the
proper officer, giving his party affili-
alton and the other is the man who
gave some other party other than the
republican or Democratic.
1.-THE voters whose names appear on
the registration and enrolment book"
said Mr.. Leech, and marked not at
home will on Wednesday in order to
secure a ballot be compelled to sign
a short form of affidavit setting forth
their party Affiliations.
"Those who signed their names
when the assessor called will have
nothing whatever to do but ask for
the ballot which their affidavit calls
for.
THE men who refused to sign
when the assessor presented the affi-
davit to them and have been sc
marked in the enrolment book will be
unable to secure a ballot Of any kind.
Those who are bonafide residents
but have been overlooked and whose
James do not appear on the enroll
ment book may with the assistance of
a resident free holder swear in their
votes Just as in former years.
ANY man who signed an AFFIDAVIT
giving his politics as any other than
republican or democratic has abso-
luteIy cut himself off from voting, as
there are only the W ballots at the
primaries"
