PRESSMEN RETURNED
Atlanta Daily Papers Reached Agree.
ment With Strikers-Everythins
Settled.

Atlanta, Ca, Sept. 2S.-Some two
weeks ago the Atlanta Wei Press
mems union was locked out from the
three dailies. the Constitution, the
Georgian and the Journal, after
failing to reach an agreement with
the publishers for a renewal of their
contract.
The newspapers in question at
tempted to establish the open shop,
but the pressmen refused to accept
the dictum of the employers. The
pressmen, after endeavoring TO reach
an adjustment of the difficulty with
the employers and failing, sought
the assistance of the Atlanta FEEDER
alton of Trades.
A committee was appointed from
this latter organization, and after
negotiations lasting two days, a con-
tract satisfactory to both the press
men and the publishers was entered
into and the pressmen have returned
to their former positions on the pa
pers involved n the controversy.
In the Journal OF Labor, published
by jerome Jones, an editorial COM
pliments the wisdom of the press
men and the employers Il empha-
sizes the influence exercised by the
central body in securing this settle
ment.

PAPA WAS ON THE JOB
Sad Tale of Robert Mcintyre and His
Best Young Lady Who Lives
Across the River.

Bob Mcintyre. he who presides with
dignity and decorum over the destinies
of the Waldorf counter, recently called
on his best girl across the river the
other evening, and when the lights
burned low he took a seat beside her
on the brand new IS davenport.
He leaned over and kissed her right
on the tip of her ear.
you stop that cried the maid, for
she was oh, so shy.
whats the matter down there?"
Numbered the voice of the "old man"
from the upstairs hall.
why, papa, 1 thought 1 saw a man
standing on our front porch" h re-
piled in confusion.
Nothing more was said n a little
later on Robert gave her one more
smack.
For the second time she became
fused and cried out.
Whats wrong now % asked the deep
bass voice from upstairs"
II thought l saw the man again." she
hbbed in a sort Of hysterical tanner.
The third time the hotel clerk per-
formed the pleasant operation she
screeched again, but Immediately put
her hand over her mouth as If to stile
the sound of her voice.
She waited expectantly for her faith
er's voice.
Instead, dressed in his night shirt,
with his night cap still on and an old
shot gun gun on n arm and an old
military revolver in the other hand, he
stalked into the room, turned on the
gas, and took a seat near the window.
Now" said he, as he looked Robert
over, I'VE will await developments"
and Mr.. Mcintyre soon after took his
departure, but there were no farewells
at the gate. The old man was on
| guard.

CARS ARE SELLING FAST
Local Manager of Horton Motor Co
Is Meeting With Remarkable
Success,

j. w. Murphy, local manager of the
Horton Motor Co., returned this morn
ing from a trip through the south
western part of the state.
MIR. Murphy expresses himself as
being more than satisfied with the
business already done and prospects
for a, future years business were never
brighter in his experience in North
Dakota.
Mr.. Murphy is setting a pace that
is hard to beat in selling cars of this
class. Two weeks g he had every
car sold which he would be able to Sc
cure from the factory during August,
September and October.
Speaking of his work, Mr.. Murphy
a y he does not attribute his sue
cess to his ability to sell cars of this
class so much as the inability of the
prospective purchaser to leave this
new Cadillac after he has seen it and
had a demonstration.

IDEA OF FARGO
HE CAN SEE A DIFFERENCE THE
MINUTE HE CROSSES THE RED
RIVER AND GETS INTO NORTH
DAKOTA, LETTER SENT TO It'll
AGA, N. Y, FROM HERE.

Lafayette Crum. of Ithaca, N. Y,
who has been visiting his brother,
Taylor Crum, in his city for a few
DAYS. sent an article back to his home
town which was printed in The ltha-
can and will give Fargo people an
idea of what a. New York man thinks
of the city and surrounding country.
After telling of his start from Ithaca
for the west he tells of reaching the
twin cities and visiting the state TAR
III the says:
we then boarded the Northern Pa
ciac train, crossed the Mississippi riv-
er and the state of Minnesota to Moor
head and Fargo. These cities are d.
vided from each other by the Red rlV-
er. which river also separates Mime
sofa from North Dakota. .
Here l wish to describe the great
contrast / have observed in these two
towns which are separated only by this
narrow stream, only about 100 rect
wide. Moorhead, Mimi, is an older
town than Fargo, N. D., and has forty
saloons and only about 5000 people,
while Fargo, being in a prohibition
state, has no saloons nor hotel bars
where intoxicating liquors can be pur-
chased, and yet the latter city displays
greater thrift, having finer hotels,
gchoOls and general prosperity, and is
growing much faster than her sister
eity in the license state, having at
present about 10000 people and is do
ing more business according to its size
thar any other city, perhaps, in the
Emitted States.
LIT has often been asserted by the OPP
Moments Of prohibition that 1t would
destroy or greatly cripple the business
OF a city, but the facts in this Instance,
at leaZ, appear to prove the contrary.
Fargo is a fine city, in the finest
Farming country in h world. 1t has
several large, modern hotels which
compare favorably with some of the
sbest in the east. It also has a state
agricultural college and United States
experiment station with $40 acres of
level, fertile land attached. 1t also has
another college-Fargo C~ollege-which
is a prosperous and growing seat of
Earning, and there are also many t

PROFESSIONAL MEN

 nrmly believe that weIl-Written, lorceful advertisements in daily news. papers will build a profitable practice TOT the reputable physician, dentist or laWyer-Just as it builds a profit. able business for the merchant and manufacturers
 That IS why l was glad to see iii the New York Herald recently an in. terview with Dr. R. Lincoln Graham, In which the doctor puts himself Ct record in favor of advertising.
 Dr. Graham observes all the forms prescribed by the ruling bodies of the medical profession in New York, but he is free in his criticism of the atti. tude he, with others, is compelled to assume thereby.
 He says very plainly that many New York physicians of unquestioned professional standing practice selt-ex. plotting methods not so commendable as advertising.
 He further states that if the profes. sional ban against advertising were raised, it would add millions annually to the incomes of physicians gener ally. It would also tighten the bur Gen upon free clinics and dispensarles, and enable specialists to reduce their present necessarily prohibitive fees to proportions the general public could pay.
 There is no doubt that the greater proportion of the reputable medical men of the country will welcome the time when they will be free to adver tise without impairing their proies sional standing.
 And that time is gradually drawing nearer, for professional men all over the country are beginning to reailZe the value of advertising, and 1t won be long before their united demands ! will compel the medical assoc1atlons to recognize this fact and to raise she ban against advertising.
