youngsters ELOPED
Couple Of 2-Year- oIds Caused Neigh
horhoOd Stir This Morning by
leaving Home.

One Of the most youthful Opponents
yet recorded was that of young Billy
Green and little Miss Catherine More,
both about 2 years of age, who con-
cluded this morning to start out on
LIES journey by themselves. They
took a very quiet departure, this
young Lochinyar and fair Ellen, and
we're gone for more than an hour, dur
ing which time two anxious mothers
and distressed neighbors spent their
energies in a dfIigent search. The
youthful couple were finally located
quite q distance from their respective
homes.
Young Billy Green is the son of Mr..
and AIRS. William G. Green and the
petite heroine OF this thrilling adven-
ture is the daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs.
A. Y. More. The Greens and the Mores
live side by side on Tenth avenue
south that Is their lawns adjoin, and
BillyAnd this fair little lady are play
mates. They both have wide and
spacious yards filled with all sorts
of swings to keep them entertained
the whole day long, so there is little
need for them to go elsewhere in search
for enjoyment.
But this morning they both had an
idea they would look TO see what the
rest of the world was like and what
was going on beyond their own door
yards, SO Billy and Miss Catherine left
their Netherby castle, as Lochinvar
and Ellen did in days of yore, and went
out exploring. They were found be-
tween Seventh and Eighth streets on
Seventh avenue south. Both were hav-
ing a very nice time and were quiet
oblivious to the neighborhood stir they
had created.

IN THE HOTEL LOBBIEs


President Cowie Of the Fargo Kennel
club. who presides over his barber or
tonsorial p~arlors, is a Arm believer
that the national convention of BARRIERS
which convened in Chicago recently
is doing tho right thing in an endeay-
or to change the name OF the business.
In fact he is delighted that the matter
may come up in the country In the
shape of legislation.
Zone Of thenbig things that the con-
vention talked over is that of chang
ing the nam6 of barber to one that
has more dignAty connected with it,"
said he. Fog Instance, 1T has been
pointed out that a sparior for external
refreshments where massaging is
practiced,, would be a more dignified
way of referring to a barber shop than
the name now employed. The upiift
of the barber shop and the beauty
parior will be our motto, and as
g~rooners of mankind, not BARRIERS any
more, we purpose placing our profess
sion on a higher plane of intelligence
and service" and Mr.. Cowie sat down
and glared at the reporter after he de-
livered the grafton.

SOLD fsO BINDERS.
Enormous Amount Of Irvine Has Also
Eeen Used This Year.

Bowman, NJ. D., Aug. 2s.-Some
idea of the crop conditions may be
gained from a knowledge OF the bust
ness done here within the last few
weeks in binders and Irvine. So far
this season about $50 binders have
been sold here, the Rresden-Larsen.
Lumber Co., having disposed Of
sixty-nine, e. NJ. Kerr of twenty and
another firm between fifty and sixty.
The amount OF Irvine that Is being
used is something enormous. A. H.
Schusten of Mineral Springs cut
twenty-four acres Of wheat and in
doing so used seventy-eight pounds
Of Irvine. Conrad v. Moravec also of
Mineral Springs used three pounds of
Irvine per acre cutting $50 acres of
wheat. These are not exceptional
cases, for many report the same
amount used. This indicates that the
straw is heavy and the best of 1t is
that the grain shows a yield in pro-
portion.
Local showers during the past week
have slightly interfered with harvest
ing operations but the rain has been
good for the flax, which promises a
fine yield.
The farmers being all in the har-
vest fields the towns are pretty quiet
these days but good business is being
done with the assurance OF more ac-
tiVity before long when the grain be-
gins TO move.

OBSERVE LABORSUNDAY
Fargo Pastors Making Arrangement
to Discuss Union Labor Coming
Sunday.

In accordance with the universal
custom on the Sunday preceding
Labor day, most of the Fargo pas
tors are planning on discussing I'm
ion Labor at one of their services
next Sunday.
In previous years it has been the
custom of the Trades & Labor as
sembly to appoint a committee to
wait on the pastors and bring this
matter to their attention but this
year this plan was not followed.
1--WE have found" said a local I'M
ion man today, that Fargo pastors
seldom need this reminder. They are
up-to-date and generally our COM
mittee was informed, when they
waited on the pastor, that he had al
ready planned to speak on that sub
ject. we decided therefore to dispense
with the notification this year

HAS CHANGED AS CANDIDATE
Woodrow Wilson's Speeches Now
Those of Office Seeker.

Scattered among the platitudes of
DR.. Wilson's speech of acceptance are
some truths. None is more significant
than this:
1--WE stand in the presence of an
awakened nation, impatient of parti-
san make believe"
Following which he makes believe
that he is telling the voters of the
country his position on the campaign
issues. No one has yet been able to
determine from a reading of the
speech precisely what that position
is. Some slight enlightenment comes
from time to time in his later utter
ances, like, for example, the declara-
ton the other day that Tammany is
to be safe from his assaults; but none
of it is satisfying ~
Dr. Wilson, in the preconvention
days, was represented to the country
as scholarly gentleman, too lofty of
mind to practice the wiles of the pro-
fessional politician, too earnest in the
cause of good government to be aught
but frank and fearless in his express
sion, too unselhsh to put private am
bition above the public veal, too
idealistic in character to truckle to
the forces of evil in the nation.
But how singularly he has masked
all of these qualities since William
Jennings Bryan forced his nomina-
+;or ~ PaIt;more
There is no difference, save in the
purity of the English, between his
speeches and the speeches of the pro-
fessional Office seeker of the worst
period in American politics. He steps
pussy footed over all the large ques-
tons of the day. He exhibits a sus-
piciously broad tolerance for all ele-
ments in the body polite, even the
elements which, to nominate him,
Bryan found it expedient to denounce
by name in the convention. There is
none of the rugged frankness of ut
terance that characterized his writ
ings in the days before he was inocu-
lated with the virus of political am
bition. He is proving over apt as an
advanced student of practical politics.
II is not q pleasant nor a heartening
exhibition he makes of himself The
right minded citizen can feel nothing
but sadness in contemplating a man
of education and culture SO intent
upon partisan, and personal victory
that he sacrifices those ideals of truth
and honesty for which he has always
stood to fawn upon and honeyfugle
the voters. lehaH ageH ye
