VERY PERSONAL.

With tonight's issue Of The Forum
for Fargo and North Dakota. With
Mondays paper vol. xxi win be start
ed. With that and future volumes the
writer will have no part.
fTwenty-one years ago last August
the retiring editor reached Fargo
S1 which the ink was scarcely dry
and a determination to grow up with
the then swaddling state of North
Dakota. After various experiences for
= few weeks. on Nov. s, 1891, he found
Mai. A. W. Edwards and H. C, Plum
ley In a little frame shack at ~ Broad
way getting men and material to
start The Forum on Nov. II. He was
added to the force. For a few days
subscriptions were solicited in nearby
towns.
ION Nov. II the writer began as curb
reporter. He has been with The Fo-
rum continuously in different repor-
itorial positions and successfully as
city editor, telegraph editor, manag-
ing editor and editor-and incidentally
az the kernels man.
With this issue-after serving the
publication twenty-one years and Civ
ing-if not his best, always his honest
and sincere efforts for it's advance
Inent-he finds himself on the outside.
This is a result of the recent change
Iof ownership. The now proprietor has
men long and intimately associated
with hin1-who will take up the edi-
torial work. The writer nurses no
grievances or grouches-and hopes
his successor win fall heir to the many
favors and courtes1es extended to him
In the past by friends of The Forum.
TWenty-one years is a long time on
a job-too long. The period con-
tains many memories. Some of them
have been unpleasant. Fortunately
the great majority have been those
that will always be fondly recalled.
Mistakes have been frequent and
nun1erous--among them some good
things have been accomplished.
During the period it was arriving
al the voting stage a large number of
me- have been connected with The
Forum, among whom lasting friend
ships have been formed. Many young
men secured their initial newspape
training hers-and there is a long list
of Those who have made good in
other fields.
One of the pleasantest recollections
tof the years with The Forum has been
THE association with the members of
the craft on other jurisdictions. There
have been pleasantrtes exchanged
criticisms made-denes hurled-and
jpusts and r%ejoinders beyond COM
Satation-but there has always been
hack OF them--a good fellowship-and
no bitterness has been felt.
AS the last of the original attaches
Of The Forum-the last Of the old
guard. as 1t were-the writer wishes
every reader of The Forum a merry
christmas. Chas, Brewer.

SCRIPTURE
1 Samuel 2s1-R.


And Hannah prayed, and said, MY
heart rejoiceth in the Lord, mine horn
10 exalted in the Lord: my mouth is
enlarged over mine enemies; because
J. rejoice In thy salvation.
There is none holy as the Lord: for
there Is none beside thee: neither is
there any rock like our God.
Talk no more SO exceeding proudly;
let not arrogancy come out of your
mouth: for the Lord is a God of knowl-
edge, and by him actions are weighed.
The bows Of the mighty men are
broken, and they that stumbled are
girded with strength.
They that were full have hired out
themselves for bread; and they that
were hungry ceased: so thai the barren
hath born seven and she that hath
many children is waxed feeble. ,
The Lord killeth, and maketh alive:
he %bringeth down to the grave, and
bringeth up.
The Lord maketh poor, and maketh
rich: he bringeth low, and lifeth up.
He rAiseth. up the poor out of the
dust, and Iifeth up the beggar from
the dunghilL to set them among
princes, and TO make them inherit the
throne of glory: for the pillars of the
earth r the Lords, and he hath set
the world upon them.

continue to be optimistic on business
affairs of the continent, This is not
the time for a panic o even a de-

signs favorable to better conditions
for the general welfare.
We have no reference to political
matters. We are passing through a
period Of uplift for the human rae as
a whole and our race is not in a mood
for any kind of depression or oppres-
sion. We expect great prosperity on
this continent for the coming twelve
months and prices will not go down to
stay down. Therefore our advice is
not to be in q hurry to sell cotton,
grain, provisions and live stock.
The same advice is given to manu-
factories and those connected with
them. There is no cause for any
alarm, no cause for the reduction OF
wages nor for the reduction In values
of manufactured articles.
The farmers, planters and manufac-
turers should prepare to produce all
they possibly can during the next
twelve months and should no be in
a hurry to sell anything. The de-

TOOK HIS EXIT BY
POISON ROUTE

Breckenridge, Mimi, Nov. ia
binder expert by the name of Joseph
Smith, who for a number of years has
been employed on the Adams farm
during harvest and threshing time,
committed suicide in Breckenridge by
taking poison. But little is known
about the man here, except that he
came from Michigan, and it is believed
that he has a brother in Grand Rapids.
Smith came to town over a month
ago from the Adams farm with owe
$500. He was a man that drank
heavily. At the time of his death
there was not a cent found on
him. He was known and identified by
a number of people in Breckenridge
and wahpeton. His brother has been

Comment on The Forum Change

Buffalo Express: The Fargo For
UNI has been sold to Brother Dotson,
Of The Crookston, Mimi, Times. The
state newspaper boys regret THE re-
tirement OF Brother Plumley, who for
twenty years has given his best word
and work for Fargo n North Dakota.
His influence is manifest in every
corner Of h state, yea, not eve a
town within it's boundaries, but has
benefited by his persistent boosting
for the betterment Of the state at
large. The thousands of columns
Of unpaid matter he gladly gave
toward the unbuilding Of the state
and It's every industry, The long,
sleepless night he endured deyising
plans for paying his help, maintain
ing his credit and driving the wolf
from the door. The thousands of
dollars worth of space he has devoted
to the placing of men in the stae,
county n minor offices, not because
he expected a cen In return but for
the noble reason that he thought
they would give the best service to
the people Of the state. But how
about his reward-that would make
a short story. Many of his ben
eficiaries proved traitors to their
trust and he was criticized for having
supported such men. Men to whom
he literally gave his newspaper
space repaid him by fathering and
yeaing till they were blue in the
face, bills that reduced his state and
| public revenues to a. most
able minimum, and which Is largely
responsible for the lettering financial
condition of all Of the states daily
boosters. But Brother Plumley has
a reward-one of more value thar
much money, and in ages to come,
should appear in bold face linotype

factors Fargo and North Dakota
has ever known.

When Iife's troublets DER you roll,
You noble work we shall extol:
Rest, Plum you gallant soul.
Not adieu, but just au revoir, for
even soon YOU may return TO the

mightier pen.

tends the glad hand to Mr.. Dotson

Don't avoid the fresh air"
Don't stuff yourself at meal time.

Cavalier Republican. The Fargo
Forum was sold Monday to ]. p. Dot
son, editor of The Crooksten Times,
who paid $4,000 for the property. The
Forum had been in the hands of a
receiver since early last spring and
the price for which it was sold hardly
takes UP the debts against the institu-
ton. While apparently doing a good
business 1t seemed to be impossible
for The Forum to keep on the right
side of the ledger and the result was a
receivership. This will end the con-
nection with the paper Of Colonel
Plumley, one of it's founders in COM
pany with the late Major Edwards.
