came when members OF the conven-
ton who had been seated" moved
to at least give the unseated dele
gates hearing before the credentials
committee. Lauder refused to enter
tain the motion from two men, but
upon its being put by third and Sec
onded by dozen, put the motion. It
was lost by vote of twenty-five to
fifteen, at least one of the Lauder fac
ton voting twice. @
We have an abiding faith in the
fairness of the average American, and
his contempt for political chicanery.
Fully one half of the seated" dele
gates left the hall disguised with the
methods of the ringmaster, while the
non seated delegates were equally dis
gusted. We cannot believe the voters
of the state will stand for politics of
this character, and feel confident that
before August fifth a plan will have
worked itself out which will permit
the sincere Roosevelt man to express
his convictions without compromising
himself so far as state issues are con-
cerned.

boys to operate their own farms be
cause there Is where the opportunity
in agriculture lies. The Better Farm
ing man told the boys Of an &C
quaintance OF his who had worked in

his position to go on q farm and in
less than four years he had taken up

and is now living as well as one could
wish and q whole lot better than the
majority of people live even in the
cities. This was one case, Mr.. Coop
er said, where pluck and ambition
to amount to something had won out.
Another interesting speaker at the
farm boys encampment was General
Manager Smithwick of the American
Steel and Wire company. He told the
boys about the advantages of wire
fencing and the eradication of weeds.
His talk was accompanied by stereop-
ticon views. %.E - &

ment, the one writing the best story

The game was interesting from
start to finish and full of funny stu
ations. Doctor Palmer was on the
mound for the Congs and was ably
supported behind the bat by Larry
Bowen, and when it comes to playing
behind the bat, outside Of Morsbach,
he is the best catcher in the world.
Palmer, barring Gust Anderson, is
also the best pitcher in the world
Doctor Wicks made some sensational
plays at second and the other bases
were held down by Jim Mcintyre and
Charley Peterson. They were on to
their jobs all the time. Knokken at
short, Cowdrey out in left and Pickett
at right were fast in their positions
and helped win the game and last but
not least by any means was Sid Ellis
out in center. Now, it's just like
dropping ball into a we'll when you
knock a fly out in center when Sid
is out there. He is q great batter as
we'll which goes long ways in win
ming a game from the Methodists.

The third party convention in Iowa
declared in favor of the election OF
postmasters. This should hardly be
considered a progressive" measure
The tendency Of modern thought is in
the direction Of reducing the number
OF elective offices. Many people see
in the seshort ballot a short road to
the correcting of many abuses. We
are inclined to think that the election
of postmasters will never be accepted
as a progressive doctrine. To put
them under the civil service rules
might look better.

Address Boys
on Agriculture

Fargo, N. d., July 26.-Farm boys
eager to learn modern methods in az.
riculture, listened to Thomas Cooper
director of the Better Farming Asso.
citation of North Dakota, at the state
fair grounds yesterday. MT. Cooper's
talk dealt with opportunities in agri.
culture. His address was the feature
of the day al the farm boys encamp-
ment which is being conducted at the
fair by the Better Farming associa-
ton. ..'s..
Mr.. Cooper advised the boys to take
up that work to which they are best
suited and not to think that they
would never make good off the farm
simply because they had been brought
up in the country. He cautioned them
to be sure that the work they did
take a hold of, if they decided to
leave the farm, would pay them bet
ter and would bring in more money
than farming before they made the
step from the country into the city.
Director Cooper's talk was practi.
cal from start to finish. He worked
on a North Dakota farm when he was
sixteen years old and received wages
of ST a month. He knew what Of he
spoke when he catalogued what bene-
fits the farm offers the boy who wants
to get ahead and lay aside some
money. Mr.. Cooper called attention
to the fact that the average man en-.
gagged in city trades is not making
over $500 to $1,000 year, while the
man on the farm, who applies him
self and learns as he works, is living
better and making considerably more
money annually. ... =
The haphazard method of farming
is rapidly passing, the speaker con-
tended, and the farmer Of today is
developing into a business man as
we'll as an up-to-date agriculturist.
|Mr. Cooper predicted bright fu-
ture for the real farm boy and said
that the day is approaching when the
farm will have to have an expert man
ager and look after the marketing of
produce and the purchase of supplies

"THOU SHALT NOT STEAL"

Will the Progressives of North Da-
kota permit one man to promote his
own personal political ambitions
while masking in the guise of loyal
and ardent supporter of Theodore
Roosevelt and the Third Party move
ment?
Is the personal and vindictive en-
nifty of one man for another to be al
lowed to defeat the cause of National
Progressivism so far as North Dakota
is concerned?
Upon the answers which the voters
of the state give to these two ques-
tons, depends in large degree the
triumphant progress or the death
blow to the movement in this state.
Not in the history of the state has
there been so bare faced, so fraudulent
and so selfish theft as that perpe-
trated at the state Roosevelt conven-
ton held in Fargo Friday morning.
Nearly one half of the Roosevelt men
who attended the convention were
railroaded out of the meeting without
hearing, without trial-and upon the
dictum of one man, w. IS. Lauder OF
Wahpeton, gag rule artist and de-
baucher of clean politics.
More than one hundred enthusiast
tic Roosevelt men came to Fargo yes
terday to attend the convention of the
third party. They were by a large
majority Republicans prepared to
give up their allegiance to the head of
the national ticket, in the interests of
National Progressive movement.
They knew Roosevelt and what he has
stood for in years past, and were will
ing to trust to him to head new ma
tional ticket. But this was not enough.
Withou. knowledge of what platform
the ne larty might adopt, with moth
ing to t.e 10 in new party, they were
asked to desert every republican can
didate, both state and national, and
support new ticket, selected by w.
s. Lauder.
More thon one half of those present
declined to trust their political future
in his hands, and straight way they
were disbarred from further participa-
ton in the meeting.
Man after man who fought through
the March primary campaign for
Roosevelt while Lauder and others
We're stumping the state making at
tacks upon him, were told that their
support of National Progressive
ticket was no longer wanted.
The real issue of the meeting was
Hanna. The axe was first applied to
the editor of the Times-Record. He
was asked by Lauder whether he had
supported and would continue to sup
port L.. B. Hanna. He stated that he
most certainly had and would, and
was thrown out.
A. F. Butler, leader of the Progress
sive movement in Ransom county was
asked if he had supported Hanna.
NO." said Butler, II supported Blu
cl1anan before the primaries, but I
propose to accept the wishes of the
majority, and shall support Hanna for
the fall election-"Out you go;" says
Lauder.
The same thing occurred in dozen
Instances when Buchanan men before
the primaries declared they must &C.
cept the decision of the people and
support Hanna for the fall election.
Their heads were incontinently sew

some good catches and is one OF the
best all round players in the team.
