Chauncey olcott, the sweet singer
who makes the matinee girls grab for
Cupid through his sweet rendition Of
Every Star Has Its Mate-seerns to be
a star with two mates, or near-mates.
The New York courts are trying to
discover exactly where the tenor
stands fundamentally.
The popular actor first wandered
into wedlock in 1888. His bride was
Cora E. James Striker Moran -olcott,
all the hyphenated part having been
accumulated at the altar.
Mrs. olcott had buried one husband
and divorced another before she dis
covered Chauncey. The lawsuit upon
which Chauncey bases the hope of
lodging the payment OF alimony to the
hyphenated 1ady-centers about her
divorce from the ma who supplied the
Moran portion Of her staccato name.
Mr.. and Mrs. oleott disagreed. He
obtained a divorce and married Miss
Margaret C'Donovan, with whom he is
still living. Now he has decided that
his marriage to the first Mrs. Olcott
was not legal, as her Moran husband
obtained a divorce from her in Nebras-
ka-which olcott's attorneys insist is
not up to the standard. Consequently,
Chauncey has asked the courts to an
null his marriage with Mrs. Cora E.
James-Striker Moran o1cott-and free
him from further payment of alimony
to her.
But the lady OF many husbands
can't see things chauncey's way-and
has filed a counter-suit. she insists
that Chauncey did not believe her di-
vorce from Moran was illegal when he
married her--and insists that the
g~olden-voiced stage hero is merely
trying to dodge his financial obliga-
ton to her. chauncey, in turn, in
sists that his ex-wife is trying to an
null the divorce he obtained from her
and is working nothing short OF a
blackmailing scheme.
Judging Chauncey by the court rec
ords, a more appropriate song for him

go is beyond the possibility of denial.
The convention had been called as a
mass convention, M it was evident

And vet there was appointed by the
chatr a committee to pass IN the eligi-
oility of all present to sit at the meet
ing, to pass on the political standing
OF men whom, In many cases, they had

nothing. Whether or not the commit

and on their own, we do not know.
Possibly these gentlemen, with Mr..
Rourke, the eminent reformer from

Tt developed early in the meeting
that the proceedings were being held
under false pretenses. Whereas the
meeting had been called to aid in the
organization Of a new national party.
1T became apparent tina Il was being
organized and conducted solely in an

man Hanna for governor No other test
OF fitness was used than the supposed

republican candidate for governor,
though 1t entertained a feeling of per-
fest friendliness toward Mr.. Buchanan,
n would have cheerfully supported
him had he been nominated. 1t is not
entirely satisfied with the nomination
of Mr.. Taft, because the nomination
does not represent the sentiment of the
republican voters OF the nation. and Ii
feels justified in making reservations
and awaiting developments in the ma
tfonal situation. But in this state the
voters themselves made their choice.
Every man had an opportunity to ex-
general. Mr.. Hanna was nominated by
q substantial plurality over his nearest
opponent, n he is indisputably the
choice of the voters of the party. The
attempt made at Fargo to overturn the
decision Of the people, or to lay the
foundation for such an o~verturning,
cannot be too severely critized.
The new party is not yet an accom-
plished fact. Its prime mover, Roose-
welt, stands pre-eminent among the eff
ficient men of the world. But no one
man can make a party. The success or
an organization depends on man men.
And, If, in many states, the methods
which characterized the Fargo v
ton are to characterize h proceedings

Thus far the Fargo convention has
done no harm. It a selected dele

sEcTroNALIsM ABOLISHED.

In an editorial discussion Of the
question Of sectionalism il the south,
The st, Louis Globe-D Democrat had the
following:

especially hurtful to the SOUTH SAYS
Colonel Watterson, ended quite a

In 1877. Cleveland continued 1t when
he put a few rebel brigadiers b the

commissions Of Joseph Wheeler and
Fftzhugh Lee In the regular army.
And Taft quite finished the job when
he made a confederate soldier chief

There Is sense In what the Kentucky
colonel says. In Its old proscriptive
aspect sectionaligm was ended long
ago. It was Hayes, and not Grant,
who removed the troops from South
Carolina and Louisiana In 1877, but
this is a mere error in detail which
0uSS AOL mar the truth or what Mr..
Watterson says. But 1t was Grant
who began the removing OF the ban on
lex.confederates. Shortly after he en-
tered onice he appointed Lopgsfreet
to- be surveyor OF customs In New
Orleang, n that was only four years
after the close OF the war. Al year
later, in 1870, he made Amos Z. Ack-

RECALL L HELP.

The advocates OF the recall system
claim for 1t all the virtues extant.
They say that through it's use innprop-
or officials can readily be removed and
graft and c~rookedness be prevented.
There are some instances in which
the recall would be powerless. Take
the recent municipal scandal In De-
troit. The officials under arrest for
graft were the most popular and the
most generally trusted on the board Of
aldermen. No matter IL the recall
had been in f~orce-~its power would
never have been invoked.
The recall undoubtedly has some
theoretical advantages-but 1t has its
abuses-1fkewise its limitations. It's
advocates make a mistake in claiming
It is the panacea for all ills-and a
safeguard against all forms OF crook
edness and graft among elective Of
ficials.

I FAIR DATES.

For years The Forum has been an
advocate Of a later date for the state
fair. There was quite a sentiment
along that line early this spring.
President Lewis IND Secretary Talcott
announced at that time they had al
ready entered into a number OF con-
tracts with different people and the
dates could not be changed without a
great deal Of expense. On their state
ments the advocates Of a later date
threw up the sponge, for the present
year.
Now that the fair is over and no
contracts for future expositions have
been entered into, seems to The Forum
to be the proper time to arrange for
later dates for future shows. Even a
month later would be a whole lot bet
Ter than at present-and IL the show
could be held in September it would
be- still better.
There is q string OF big state fairs
over the northwest. The North Da-
kota fair is now assuming such pro-
portions that it should AXE its prop
er place-and line UP with the big
shows. Why not get in the game
right.
If fair dates could be for
Fargo the week before the Minnesota
show, that would make at least thir-
ty days difference. 1t would insure
much of the high class stun shown at
Minnesota and would make the live
stock display a hummer.
BY having the fair thirty days lat
er there could be 81 agricultural dis
play here that would open the eyes
OF the visitors. AS it is at present, an
agricultural fair is being run-with
practically no agricultural display.
The best that can be done nde the
circumstances is being accomplished
but the present dates are entirely
too early for any showing.
Thirty days later there could be a
magnificent display, and If held in the
latter part Of August there would be
a possibility OF getting the different
counties to enter a contest of that ma
ture. Minnesota and other states have
made a wonderful success of their
county exhibits. 1t creates a big rfv-
airy between counties and the best ex-
hibits possible are secured. North
Dakota fair managers must get such
! things IL the fair is to b. a big win
ner.
The talk about the farmers being too
busy to attend a fair in August is no
argument. Imagine any time in the
year when the farmers are very much
buster than last week. The winter
wheat and winter rye were being cut,
early oats and early barley were
ready. Thirty days from now the
harvest will be over and the people
will have more time to attend fairs
than now. They will have more ready
cash-and will buy more goods.
The Forum believes the dates
should be at least thirty days later
than at present-and also that now is
the time to make the arrangements
for the next big show.
