Debs Says Best Planks In Platform
We're Taken From Socialists.

Debs Says Best Planks in Platform
Were Taken From Socialists.
NEW YORK, Aug. 17.-In signed
statement published here Eugene v.
Debs, the socialist candidate for pres
tdent, says Of the progressive party:
"The really progressive planks in
the progressive platform were taken
and even the red flag of socialism
was appropriated, or, at least imitat-
ed by the red bandana OF the Roose-
welt followers. "
ESQ far as the progressive party it.
self is concerned, it contains too many
diverse and conflicting economic ele-
ments, and Its platform is too much
of hodge-podge to give it the char
acter and stability Of great national
party.
"The most significant thing about
the progressive convention is that it
represented hundreds of thousands of
men who have voted the republican
tickt all their lives, and who have now
quit the republican party forever. The
progressive tendency here manifested
can never be checked, but will become
more and more pronounced, until it
finds expression in socialism,

NORTH DAKOTA
By GEORGE FITCH,

North Dakota is a broad, fat state
with mind of it's own, when LaFol
lette isn't using it, and about enough
history to fill souvenir postal card
1t was discovered in 1880, massacred
in the 6fties and admitted to the I'm
ion in 1889, and has had several bliz-
yards and presidential primary
More about North Dakota's history
would be waste Of words.
North Dakota is part of the old
territory Of Dakota which was taken
into the Union in two gulps, viz:
North and South Dakota. The form
er has 10000 square miles, which are
sowed to wheat each year, and it has
$4,000 people, who look at the wheat
report before they look at the base
ball scores. When wheat is a bumper
crop North Dakota puts storage tanks
around it's national banks, but when
the spring is dry book agent could
walk across the state without getting
a chance to take out his prospectus.
North Dakota is also noted for its
vast ranches and farms. Land was
once worth IS township, and those
farsighted men who bought a few
thousand dollars worth now have
farms so big that it takes four men

Jim Hill about 80 years ago. He built
the Great Northern across the upper

road looks like the skeleton of trout

| Being just under the Canadian Dor

piled with winter, which begins short
~ after September and lasts until
even the coal dealers are tired of it.
The thermometer often drops to so
degrees below in the state, but no.
body minds it because it usually drops
to this mark from As degrees below.
The snowfall is very liberal, especial
ly on the railroad tracks, and all sum-
ner long officials keep discovering
trains which were mislaid during Jan
uary.
North Dakota afternoons last until
10 O'Clock in the summer, and the PEG.

that Fargo was too good a territory

AFTER MANY INVITATIONS THEY
ALL DO A, LITTLE FOR THE
WEATHER MAN

It has been some time since any
one has had line or two in poetry
such as it is, from Mr.. Howe, who pre-.
sides over the counter at the Great
Northern. He was asked if he could
poetize on "summer' and he said
that he could and here is what he
brought forth:
.>, "Summer here
Sure as death; :
| I've smelt onions
ST., On her BREATH
G. E. Gray, Of the Colonia. who is a
censor on all poetry sprung by hotel
clerks in general, was sent the above
and he sent it back with the remark
that "them's my sentiments, too,"
also enclosing the following touching
lines:
s "Summer's here,
I knew it, too;
She got on that
Peek-a-boo." "
Steve Jones, older, and who ought
to know better, also contributed his
mite as he sat behind the counter at
the Western hotel, as follows, and as
will be seen he keeps his eyes fast to
the ground when there are any women
about:
s'"Summer's here,
You're right, old fox!
You can see
Right through her sox."
Henry Graham, who presides over
the Great Northern counter, and who
has charge when the CHOOSES are
away" carefully scanned the above
and merely said: "Humph, that hahn It
so much" He thought earnestly for
a few moments, and then dashed off
the following which will show that
Henry doesn't keep his eyes On the
ground altogether:
tsummer's here;
Brings the rose;
Freckles also $3.50
On her nose.0

Help in the harvest fields of the
northwest was considerably reinforc-
ed yesterday when Peter Verbeek, a
farmer from Holland, a man of almost
gigantic stature, and patriacnial beard
with his family, of Is ranging in
years from 25 months to 25 wears
passed through Minneapolis on his
way to the grain fields Of North Dako-
ia. The family is going to Fordville
N. D., where relatives have already
provided them with farm.
'Verbeek said he had a small farm
in Holland, but wanted more land and
had heard of the northwest's big
farms. "We don't expect to do much
on our farm this year." he said in
his native tongue, "but the boys and
the girls too, will work and we hope
to make enough money to keep Us
during the winter" Then he told
how the girls "stocked'' the grain
in Holland, s'picked" potatoes, milk
ed the cows, looked after the poultry
fed the hogs and did sundry othe,
things in an agricultural way, evident
~ thinking they could do the same
in their new home.

BURKE ON HOME RULE,

Northwestern Advocate (Milwau.
kee): Governor John Burke Of North
Dakota, in speech at the Irish pic.
mic at Milwaukee, Wis, last Saturday
afternoon, declared that ireland would
have home rule within two years. He
pictured a brilliant future for that
country once 1t is free of the despotic
landlord rule. His speech was spiced
with good stories.
There would be no trouble In the
government Of ireland, he argued,
were it not for the fact that the Eng.
fish do not understand the Irish and
the Irish do not understand the Eng
lish. The Irish, he maintained, are
naturally a peace loving people. "The
Irish nation,'' declared the speaker,
Twill never forget that It. owes more
to the United States than 70 any 9th
er power for this country has been
the most ardent supporter Of ireland
in its fight for home rule"
