Several Associations in State Make
Plans for Annual Events.


Plans for Annual Events.
This is considerably earlier that the
fair associations are by law required
to report to the department of agri-
culture and labor, but Commissioner
Gilbreath has requested the several
secretaries to stretch point this year
and make up their reports soon. In
quiries are daily being received from
outside states wanting to know just
when and where these fairs are to be
held. So far only eight reports have
been filed, as follows:
Barnes County Agricultural Fair as

MATCH SCHEDULED FOR NEXT
MONDAY EVENING AT
GRAND FORKS.

Grand Forks, March 27.-One of the
best wrestling cards Of the season will
be pulled off in Grand Forks Monday
night, April l, when Henry Ordemann
the Minneapolis grappler, and Farmer
Jahns, the local heavyweight, will meet
for finish bout.
Jacks auditorium has been engag.
ed for the event and the voisit of the
terrible Swcde to Grand Forks will
create no end Of interest among the
mat fans in this section of the state.
Ordeman, while to light to make a
great showing against Frank Gotch,
has proved himself to be one of the
premier wrestlers of the United States
and one Of those to be considered as
aspirants to the title and crow of the
present champ.
Jahns has been seen in action here
a number of times the past winter and
has also wrestled elsewhere in the state
this season. He tips the beam beyond
the two century mark and in spite of
his great weight, is fast.
The promoters have not as yet an.
nounced their card of preliminaries.
but it is expected that Len Thompson
of Michigan will be one Of the opening
lights.

DECIDED THAT PROPOSITION OF
COMMERCIAL, CLUB WAS NOT
A GOOD ONE.

At a meeting of the park board Of
the city last night it was unanimously
decided not to undertake the PROPOSE
ton offered by Mr.. Dodge to make a
park out Of the land he offered to the
city.
Considerable talking was done at the
meeting but the proposition did not
look feasible, in that the ground which
Mr.. Dodge has offered was so low it
would take several thousand dollars
to grade it up and when the park had
been established, land could be pur-
chased and improved for less money.
The ground is also SO far out that it
would not particularly beatty the city
in that the trees would have to grow for
years before they could be seen from
town.
All were agreed on the fact that the
city should have a park-but not at the
expense Of improving the property
when other land could be purchased
cheaper.

TWO BIG EXPRESS CARS OF BEL.
GUM IMPORTS WILL PASS
THROUGH THIS CITY.

AS was stated some time ago that
The World would receive advice from
Mr.. G. H. Olson as to when he would
arrive with the purchase of imported
Belgium horses. Such word has come
recently and he will pass through this
city on April third with two cars OF
recently purchased horses.
In the lot will be four stations and
"a mares, all Of the highest breed. This
is the second import of Mr.. Olson from
France and it can be safely said that
he is stocking North Dakota's Lake
Region with the best horse blood that
has ever been brought into the state.
The horses will be taken directly to
Mr.. Olson's large tarm near Cando.

SUMMER: RATE ON RAILROADS.
North Dakotans Will Not Have to Pay
Full Fare in Going to Pleasure
Resorts

North Dakotans will probably have
the advantage Of 2.cent rate to the
pleasure resorts this summer. While
it has not been given out officially
that car fare will be reduced during
the hot months, it was announced to-
day on well authenticated information
that 2-cent rate would go into eff
feet before the lake season is very far
advanced.
In Minnesota reduced rate will
prevail all summer to the resorts and
special rate will go into effect for
the various big conventions to be held
about the state.
One reason that North Dakota will
probably get a reduction in the cost
of travel this summer is that the Sang
erfest to be held in Fargo will bring
hundreds of visitors from this and ad-
joining states to that city and this
alone will warrant the railroad COM
panies making the special excursion
rate, it is said.
Grand Forkers who go to Maple Lake
and other lakes of Minnesota for their
weekend outings and summer vaca-
tions will rejoice at the proposed re-
duction, though it be only one-half
cent per mile.-Grand Forks Times.

MANY Asp1RANTs FOR COUNTY
OFFICES ARE BEGINNING TO
LOOM UP OVER COUNTY.

While no public announcements have
yet been made for any Office, there
seems to be large number of residents
from all parts Of the county who have
desire to get into the game and seek
a berth at the court house for the COM
ing term.
Three holders of Office during the
past two years will not be candidates
again. Gus Furstenau has finished the
two terms granted county treasurer.
States Attorney Duell will not be q
candidate again and Judge Henry has
made it definitely known that he does
not intend to run for the office Of Pro.
bate Judge this year.
Among those who are circulating pc
titions for Offices are n. j. Hinck for
county judge. Attorney Griffin is also
a candidate for the same Office. Jess
Maxson is running for sheriff. Earl
Duell is candidate for county treasur-
er. Alois Walters is also running for
treasurer and has his petition out. At
torney Wehe is petitioning the voters
for q place on the ticket as state g at
torney and besides these it is rumored

candidates in the field.

ATTORNEY QUESTIONS 0oNsr1.
TuT1oNAIITY OF Law REQUIR-
2 ED OF VOTERS.

The law which requires assessors to
make an enrolment Of the voters &C.
cording to party afaliation is uncon-
stitutional, according to an opinion
furnished by the attorney general g Of
fee to Geo. P. Homnes, Of Crosby, q
member Of the house Of representa-
tives. The particular point on which
it is declared to be out Of line with
the provisions Of the constitution is
found in that it places an additional
requirement upon the voter not con-
templated by the makers Of the con-
stitution. s.1s
The law in question passed by the
last legislative assembly, provides that
assessors must make complete regis
tration Of all voters, and such regis.
tration is to be made for the purpose
Of keeping party voters within their
own party at the June primaries, the
voters being required to vote the bal
lot Of the party to which they declared
themselves when interviewed by the
assessor.

MANY OF THE COMMITTEES DID
NOT FINISH THEIR CANVASS
OF PROSPECTS,.

Owing to the fact that a number of
committees have not finished their
quest for buyers of Chautauqua tick
cts, the names Of the purchasers will
be withheld until all have been call
ed on and given an opportunity to pur.
chase.
The plan was decided upon by these
in charge of the work as they thought
it unfair to publish the names of buy
ers before all had had an opportunity.
The list will be published later and
those who have not availed themselves
of the opportunity should do so at once.

o'clock a. m. at her home on Fifth

than two years. She had been very
low for several weeks past and death

A number of the members Of her
family were with her for several days
prior to the time of her death and
made life as sweet as possible during
her last days. She has been a terrible
sufferer and during it all has held up
with sweet disposition and kind
heart.

FANS ARE BECOMING ANXIOUS
TO KNOW WHAT ARRANGE
MENTs ARE TO BE MADE.

With the ushering in Of warm wea-
Their and the reports in the big dallies
of the leaguers vending their way
southwark for practice, the fans of
Devils Lake are becoming anxious to
have baseball team, like the ono we
had last year.
1t is a proposition that readily finds
a place in the heart of any live booster
for town and is an advertising me-
dunn for the city 1t represents. There
will be some arrangements made in
the near future for a team and it is
probable that Devils Lake will have
some Of the good old timber that vas
here last year in the game this season.
Stub Foss, the little second basemaa
who played in the team during the end
of the season is in the market for a
contract this year, if the heads Of the
game want his services. He is in the
best Of condition, having played with
the University Of California all winter
in a rugby uniform and is now working
on the baseball team.
Several others are writing about the
prospects here and would like to be in
the harness again in the capitol of the
Lake Region.

FRIENDS IN DEVILS LAKE ARE
GRIEVED TO LEARN OF HIS
POOR HEALTH,

Hundreds Of friends in Devils Lake
and throughout North Dakota will be
grieved to learn that former Chief
Justice David E. Morgan is not finding
the relief in the west that he had hop
ed for. His throat again is causing
him much pain and worry. The judge
and his sister, Mrs. Lewis, are now at
Lamauda Park, California, but on ac-
count of the wet, disagreeable weather
they are planning to move to some
other part of the state. Mrs. Lewis
has not been well for some weeks, and
it is hoped that the dryer atmosphere
will also be better for her.

LONE TREE HAD BAD FIRE-TO-
tai LOSS IS ESTIMATED AT
ABOUT $4,000.

Berthold, N. D., March 27.-The
Farmers elevator and feed mill with
their entire contents and the Great
Northern depot at Lone Tree were to-
tally destroyed by fire. The gin Of
the fire is mystery and it was not dis
covered until it had gained such head
way as to be beyond and possible
chance Of extinguishing it. w, E..
Tucker, the buyer, states that the en-
tire upper portion was a mass of flames
when he first noticed that the building
was afre; With nothing at hand with
which to fight the fire he could only
direct his efforts toward saving part
of the contents, but the flames spread
so rapidly that he could get nothing
out.
The building had capacity of So
900 bushels and was considered one
of the best elevators in the state.
It contained about 5000 bushels of
small grain Of various kinds.
The elevator and mill were valued at
$4,000 and were fully covered by
insurance.

Ormiston, single man about SO years
OF age, died at the Langdon hospital
from the severe injuries sustained
when he was badly trampled upon by
horse in the barn at his farm three
miles southeast Of Nekoma. He was
found back of the stall in an uncon-
scious and aim st dying condition some
time after it happened and just how
it occurred will never be known. The
blow he received when kicked by the
horse was on the point Of the chin,
shattering the jaw bone, and after fall
ing he was trampled upon in a way
which made his case hopeless. He was
brought to Langdon and placed in the
hospital and it was Sunday forenoon
when an operation had been decided
upon with slim chance of saving the
mans life that he breathed his last
just when the chloroform was being ad-
ministered.
