Wahpeton. N. D., Feb. 23.-The
mass meeting called by Mayor Eber-
ly at the city hall nominated the pres.
ent mayor for another term as was
expected.
Mayor Eberly called the meeting
to order and after stating the purpose
of the meeting a committee was ap-
pointed consisting of five Repubii-
caps and flee Democrats to select a
complete city ticket. The following
We're selected: For mayor, frank
Eberley; for treasurer, w. F. Eckes;
for police magistrate. w. r. Purdon;
for city justice, o. c. Farnsworth; al
derlnan First ward. Math Gillen; al
derman Second ward, ]. G. Forbes
and w. L. Fricke; alderman Third
ward, NJ. j. Braun; alderman Fourth
ward, j. E. Morris.
An attempt was made to substitute
the name Of Charles kachelhoeffer
for that of Frank Eberley but this

through as planned.
Previous to the mass meeting ]. n.
Jurgenson circulated a petition for

BRADSTREET'S REVIEW.
Further Expansion In Volume Of Final

NEW YORK June 7.-Bradstreets will
say tomorrow;
Better, more seasonable weather and
the progress of the crops toward points
where progress can be measured are re-
sponsible for further expansion In the
volume of final distributive trade. This
Is most marked In retail trade in the
larger cities and industrial centers and
less SO in the. country districts where
farmers are still wrestling with the OBJ
stacles imposed by an almost uniformly
late planting and growing season.
There is a fair trade In fall goods. The
industries are in rather good shape.
Iron and steel report close to maximum
production. though new demand Is not
so marked. The building trades show a
good increase for May and the five
months. and the coal trade having re-
sumed work, demand and distribution
are better.
