JOS. Stevens, Secretary: There will
be . meeting OF the butchers and meat
cutters Thursday evening at s o'clock
in Assembly halls. All butchers and
meat cutters T cordially invited to
attend.
Emma Bacher, Record Keeper: The

nee L. desired.
Axel A. Rosberg, Secretary: The
sheet metal workers will hold a meet
ing Thursday evening, Sep. IL, at s
o'clock at Assembly halls. All mem.
bers and other sheet metal workers
are urged TO be present.
Mrs. Chas. Hermanson: We who are
compelled to stand for the nuisance of
Birch's asphalt mixer, which is per-
nlitted to operate as 1t wishes, in u
ne~ighboFhood, feel that we have a kick
coming and are entitled to make a
protest. The dust, dirt, fumes and
gases from the plant are running our
homes and the noise and commotion
which starts about $3.50 in the morn
ing are driving us distracted: We are
practically compelled to keep our
doors and windows closed all of the
time to shut out the o and gases,
and it makes 1t mighty hard on us all.
These difficulties could be overcome
by having q higher smoke stack on the
machine, but though ut was brought
to Mr.. Birch's attention, he gives it no
thought and does not seem to care
about us who have to live there. we do
not complain about improvements, but
do not feel that the contractor should
be permitted to maintain q nuisance
when it could easily be avoided.

Railroad News
new HIGHLlEE
BRIDGE AT LISBON

Lisbon, N. d, Sept. IA high line
bridge. rivaling the n at Valley City
in height and length, is to be erected
at Lisbon to spar the bluffs is a rumor
that is being given much credence
among railroad men running on the
Southwestern. Two weeks ago some of
the head officials OF the Northern Pac-
if1c system passed over the Southwest
ern and stopped for several hours at
Lisbon, and it is said the party made
a partial survey of the surroundings in
the hopes of a~scertaing the approx
mate cost of such a structure.
1t has been rumored for some time
that the Southwestern was to be used
as the main freight line to the Pacif-
ic coast, and recent railroad activities
west from Edgeley make this almost
q certainty.
AS 1t is now freights carrying
heavy tonnage cannot make the Lis
bon grade unless they double the hill.
This fall the crews have been
bringing their trains through from
Lisbon n sidetracking them at
Sheldon where they are picked up by
an extra sent out from Dilworth. A
high line bridge would do away with
all doubling of trains and those of
HSaNS toIlldBe Coulu De u
through on the main line. In all
probability a station will be erected
on one of the bluffs.
Another train schedule is due to
go into effect on the Southwestern in
a short while, and while employees of
the local depot will not deny it, they
will give out nothing for publication.
1t is said that train crews will be
run through to Streeter instead of
Edgeley as they are at present, and
that another passenger train will be
put on going into Fargo in the omrning
and returning in the evening.

successful attempt at committing sui
eide at her rooms on upper Front street

Chauncey Olcott, in his new play.
The Isle o. Dreams, will present a de-
lightful picture at the Fargo opera
house this evening, of that most pic
turesque period in Ireland when the
young Irish gentlemen were accounted
to be the most dashing blades in Eur
ope, when fox hunting, steeple- chasing
and field sports in general made the
west of Ireland, and all of it for that
matter, famous throughout the world.
The play is from the pen of Rida John
son Young, who has been furnishing
Mr.. Olcott with his plays for the past
few years, with great success. Mr..
Young has caught the spirit of the
time in a manner worthy OF Charles
Lever and has infused more character
istic atmosphere into it than has been
seen in any play of the sort in recent
years.

lively in the congress of the United

WILSON Tells Editors

Gov. Osborn introduced Gov. Wilson
at the banquet Of the Michigan Press
association In the Wayne Gardens,
Thursday evening, as ''the man who
has come from the University .oi
Princeton into the great University
Of the United States" The incident
concerning Harper's Weekly, the gov
ernor said, means that Gov. Wilson is
nobody's man but his own, and he
added that II was a fine thing when
the Democratic party could put for
ward man OF the type OF the New
Jersey statesman.
When election comes" declared
Gov. Osborn, '1et the better man win,
whether he Is Republican or Demo
crat"
There has been an impression,
began Gov. Wilson, that the people
Of New Jersey are not progressive,
but they have not had a chance until
recently to show their sympathies on
issues OF the day. In this connection,
II is a singular fact that the middle
west is the home OF progressiveism,
and 7 wonder II you editors realize
the real responsibility that rests upon
you. You are creating the temper
which will determine the course the
public affairs of your section must
follow.
The mind of the country has been
disturbed because Of radical changes,
and II is necessary to do something
carefully. am not a professional
reformer. I distrust this type of man.
He Is a disturber Of the steady growth
Of the body polite.
"Progressiveness means that we
should catch up with the facts as they
are marked on an up-to-date business
calendar. The moment our policies
lag behind our thoughts, conditions
get out of joint. The editors must
clarity the mind so the people will
know what is conservative and what is
not radical. The knife OF the surgeon
is to save life. to set the vital forces
free, and our policy should be to build
up and not destroy.
"An honest president is fighting
with the rising waters of dissatisfac-
ton, hardly knowing whether he Is
or aiding them, but the pro-
gressive readjustment Is steadily lift
ing the waters behind the standpat
dam. Those who will not change
their thoughts to harmonize with mod
ern conditions, stand as immovable
barriers, and the editors must assist
in opening the eyes OF the people as
to who must rule. There has been a
certain advantage In delay, though.
because as the waters have piled up
the sediment OF passion has settled TO
the bottom. The waters are pure.
They course from the foundations OF

I'VE have begun TO divert our
minds to the engineering problem,
using calm and sane methods, and
there will be no Johnstown food. The
civilization such as we have has never
been known, and the engineers will
conserve the forces to fiow into bet
ter future.
Some persons fancy the disturb
ances have been brought about by
but no set of demagogues
has created situation that Is so
widespread. We need somebody to
sweep aside. those who have gone
blind or are asleep. We must do some
deep thinking and suit actions to
words, and the newspapers must help
to bring better things by peaceful evo-
luton"
