the building where it started. The

Chioaoo Gossip,

Chicago, Feb. S.-Corn specialists
who have been rampantly bullish were
on the bear side last night. They said
there was too much corr that the mar
ket had not absorbed, especially in the
way of cash stuff here and at other
points, to make a bull market for the
time being, and that 1t must be all
digested before there would be perma-
uency in the buIges. They figure that
the speculative buying of the last few
days has not been of the right class;
that there has been too much pyra-
miding and, a widening Of the low
grades and May is rather against the
bull. In the face Of the bearish talk,

Encouraging Words for Debaters.

One of the judges in the recent de-
bate between the teams from the
high schools OF Moorhead and Cas-
selton was Professor Minard OF the
agricultural college at Fargo. The
subject for debate "a the proposed
adoption Of the parcels post system
by the United States and referring
to the work done by the boys OF the
Moorhead team. Mr.. Minard had the
following to say yesterday afternoon;
''The question was very close and the
teams we'll matched. Both teams did
fine work and their delivery was
good, especially that of the Moorhead
team. Milo FIaten was simply great
in rebuttal and tore into his oppo-
nents' arguments roughshod. He was
very strong, and the entire Moorhead
team showed thorough training.
Neither your young people nor your
citizens should be discouraged over
the hard run Of luck you are having.
for the work done by the young people.

HARDWARE men
NEARLY READY
LOCAL HARDWARE MERCHANTS.
ARE NEARLY READY FOR THE
BIG STATE CONVENTION WHICH
IS TO BE HELD HERE FEB. 2f-2a
PROGRAMMES SOON OUT.

The local hardware merchants who
are arranging for the big state con-
vention of hardware men which Is to
be held in this city Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday, Feb. Fl, % and %, are
nearly ready for the visitors who will
crowd into the gate city at that time.
1t is expected the official programme
of the convention will be announced
within the next few days as there are
several final minor details which have
to be fixed at the last moment.
All the local hardware men are busy
getting in shape for the convention,
but under the direction of those who
have had the local arrangements in
charge there are not many important
things yet to be done, as time was
taken sufficiently by the forelock to
dispense with all the bigger features
of the convention early so there would
be no unnecessary hurrying at the
last moment.
With the exception Of two, all the
booths for the big exhibit, which is to
be held in the j. I. Case building on
lower N. p. avenue, have been dis
posed Of to good advantage, so that
the exhibition bids fair to be the most
extensive and elaborate ever held ii
the history of the association.
There will be many visitors from all
parts of the state as the committee
here has received word from a ma
jority of the hardware merchants all
over North Dakota, who have signi-
fed their intention of attending the
convention. Secretary Barnes of the
association was down from Grand
Forks this week to hold a conference
with Hubert Harrington, H. F. Emery
and others members of the local COM
mittee to arrange for the final details
of the meeting.
