James M. Yeager made his
first Republican campaign speech
for James G. Blaine in 1884, with
Congressman Rockwell of Mass.
Since that time he has champion
ed Republican principles and pol
icies from the same platform with
Honorable Chauncey M. Depew,
Gov. Frank S. Black, Honorable
Hamilton Fish of New York, and
with Gov. E. S. Stuart, Lieuten-
ant Gov. Murphy, Major Mellow
ell, Hon. j. E. B. Cunningham,
and other well known Republi-
cans Of Pennsylvania. He does
not need, therefore, to proclaim
his adherence to, and grasp of
Republican doctrines and policies.
During the past seven years he
has campaigned in every part of
Pennsylvania under the auspices
of the Speakers Bureau of the
Republican party, and has not
asked for, nor received a cent
from the treasury of the party
for his expenses or his services;
both were voluntarily contribut-
ed. His friends are confident
that the Republican voters of the
18th District will show their ap-
preciation on May 10Th for these
services.

THE ~ MARKET.

The rye market during the last six
working days was slow, there being
little of this grain in the local
market to e a lively interest. Re
ceipts i'm Minneapolis amounted to Il
cars against 3 cars for the corresponds
ing days in 1911. Shipments were 9
cars to outside mills. Prices weaken
cd and dropped about 1c ii bushels,
closing steady. The rye crop of the
northwest on the warm or sandy land.
where much of it is cultivated, looks
well n some of it was out in the ear
in he latter days in May. Compared
with last year the crop looks much
better in the field and promises good
results. Owing to small rye produc-
ton corn substitutes for some cases
have been introduced, quite effectual-
" overriding the acut shortage of the
former. The acreage in the northwest
increased nearly 20 per cent above
that of the previous year and amounts
to 41S,O0O acres. With the higher
the Gro should yield larger
total.

Railroad Commission After Compa.
MES for Better Connections.

Bismarck. June 10.-The North
Dakota railroad commission does not
propose to allow the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific railways to
work to the disadvantage of the peo-
pie of the state and at a meeting Of
put a spoke in the wheel which was
to revolve so nicely that it would
nullify one of the commissions re-
cen orders.
Go to Court.
For years the travelling public has
been trying to secure an arrangement
with the Great Northern whereby
passenges arriving at Leeds on the
jamestown Northern could mako
connections for points o nthe Great
Northern without having to wait
twenty-five hours for a local train to
come along. Some months ago the
railroad commission ordered the
Great Northern to stop its trains
numbered w and three at Leeds to
accommodate passengers On the
Northern Pacific line arriving at that
point. The company resisted and
the case ven to court in the Second
sustained n the COMPANY ordered
to make the required stops. An APP
peal was taken to the supreme court.
where the case was dismissed and the
commission was feeling good over the
end of the long controversy.
Ordered Old Schedule Back.
Before the rejoicing had one very
far, however. a new schedule was
put into effect on the Northern Pa
ciflc branch which made trains on
that line arrive at such a time at
Leeds that passengers could not
avail themselves of the Great North
ern trains which had been required
to stop. Now the board has order
ed the Northern Pacific to restore the
old schedule as it stood May 6. Inas-
much as railroads u make appli-
cation twenty days in advance of 81
change in their time schedule and
secure a permit from the commission
the latter feels in this instance hat
1t has the upper hand and is stand
ing upon the law and its rights.
Tt must discourage people a good
deal to see a doctors health fail.

HAS FIRST CIVIC
PLAYGROUND
Fessenden is First City in
State to Afford a Civic
Playground.

Fessenden. N. D.. June 10.-This
city has the honor Of establishing the
first civic playground in the state di-
rected by a competent overseer and
supported by the t~ownspeople.
+. H. Watkins, physical director of
Fargo college, will have charge of the
work this year which will embrace all
branches of athletics, and he will have
classes from the smallest children to
the young men and women of the
town.
Originated With Club.
The playground movement in this
city originated with the members of
the Saturday club. Every citizezn is
a member of the playground organiza-
ton and there are no dues required.
Several adjoining lots in the center
OF the town were donated by the own
ers for the work. These We're cleared,
rolled. swings erected, giant stride.
horizontal bars, see-saws and sand
piles were constructed about the
grounds and tennis courts, basket and
baseball grounds arranged for, as we'll
as Il croquet court. Thus every
branch branch of athletics has been
provided for. including swimming and
all of the work has been done by the
citizens of this city. Benches hav
been placed around the grounds for
the benefit of onlookers and spectators
at the various vents.
Girls and Boys Alike.
Girl and boys alike play at each
of the games. Perfect discipline is
always maintained and II %roughness
of language or deed means instant
suspension of privileges.
A large part of the money necessary
to carry on the work is raised by pop
ular subscription. Baseball games
between the town teams, field days,
band concerts and picnies all help
raise money for the event as we'll as
providing social amusement for the
citizens. The amount raised for ex-
penses was $451 and the amount eX-
pended last year was $3.50, leaving a
balance for next year of $112.
Move Will Spread.
While the success of the playground
In this city has been nothing short of
mervelous there is 10 doubt but that
the movement will meet with the
same reception in other cities of the
state. 1t is as important AS the school
for we'll directed play is as important
as well directed study.
In connection with the Fairgrounds
are well kept school gardens which
are under the direction of Mrs. Hamp-
ton Lyness. These gardens have been
freely commented upon by numerous
who are Amazed at the artis-
tic arrangement of the flowers and
vegetables.

with the early loss regained n pric-
es irregular is higher to is lower

quotations. ~Rroonlhall cabled that
the early weakness in Liverpool was
due to the unexpected liberal worlds
shipments but the market regaincd
all of this on covering 10y shorts. due
to tho decrease in the amount of
wheat on passage and the strength in
the Paris market with, a good de-
mand for Australian wheat and a
brisk competition for nearby cargoes
Euenos Aires closed strong on Sat-
urday and this also helped to hold
the market steady.
h opening in our market was
lower and ruled dull and ~featurelcss
all through the session within narrow
limits. The general inclination was
to await the publication of the gov
crop report which will be
given out today after the close.
Urinary receipts were $4,000
bushels compared with $4,000 BUSH
els a year ago. Shipments today
We're 364.000 bushels, last year $685.
600 bushels.
The United States visible supply of
wheat showed a decrease of 2,437,-
600 bushels for the past week and the
total is now 2S,41O.00O bushels COM
pared with 25.971,OO0 bushels last
year.
Worlds shipments were 16.S00,00

last year 12,512,OO0 bushels.
Clearances for wheat and -four for
the day amounted to 100000 bushels.
Tho Winnipeg market held very
strong today which vas said to be
due TO shorts covering.
Berlin wheat market closed rs
higher than Saturday. The market
on the close tonight shows about IL
