FARGO NEWSPAPERS"

The daily papers at Fargo have
had the most strenuous time lately
in the history Of that city. The
dailies there admit themselves they
are having a strenuous time. The
morning paper was recently sold un-
der a foreclosure, and as a result OF
a voting contest which was conduct
ed for the purpose of raising funds
to carry the paper through a depict
ed financial period the publishers fell
into the meshes of the federal au-
thorities for an irregular use of the
mails.
The Fargo Forum, the Oldest daily
there, has had its shares OF troubles.
Last winter a board OF trustees was
named to handle the finances of the
institution which Manager Plumley
has spent the best years Of his life
in establishing, and only a few days
ago a receiver was named. The pres
ent financial predicament of the
Forum will be generally regretted by
friends of that old time popular daily,
and Manager Plumley.
For years the Forum has carried
news Of the northwest to daily read
ers all over this section Of the coun.
try. 1t was the mirror which reflect.
ed the enterprise and progress OF
Fargo. 1t always had a good word
for its home city and North Dakota,
and has been instrumental in accom-.
pllshing a great deal towards the well
fare OF the state. But the Forum, as
1t admits, was ahead of the times, as
far as Fargo vas concerned. Results
now prove that it was too big a pa
per for a city the size Of Fargo. AT
least that is the inference that now
can be drawn If the Forum was no
larger a paper than Fargo deserved,
the business interest of that city have
failed to make their end good but
have let the Forum take the burden
OF pushing it's home city to the front,
and has not received the support in
return 1t was entitled to.
Friends OF the popular daily hope
that in the course OF events fortune
will yet favor the Forum, and that
the faithful old time state daily will
be able to continue with its old time
force intact, and that it will in the
near future occupy the place it de-
serves in financial circles.

v Il CROP.

Grand Forks Herald: Just now the
northwest is engaged in the work OF
harvesting the greatest crop in all
its history. The crop is not only the
largest, but If the conditions for han
ding it are favorable, it will be by
far the most profitable crop ever
raised in the northwest. Prices are
good. There is every prospect that
they will remain good. The world
is in need of the products of our
fields, and is prepared to pay the
price. So long as prices abroad re-
main substantially as they are, our
prices will not drop materially, no
matter who is elected president, OF
what party controls congress. A
prosperous year, therefore, is as Ger
tain as anything can be that is de-
pendent in any measure on the
weather conditions.
The moving Of the crop is a big
problem. The financing of the op.
