DISCUSS MEANS OF CLEANING
UP STREETS.

With the opening of spring the
Fargo Commercial club is taking a
great interest in the civic improve
ment of the city and q committee ap-
pointed by President Hardy to make
suggestions along that line will con-
vene tomorrow noon to discuss ways
and means Of cleaning up the streets
and decorating the business district,
thus making it more ornamental.

O'Neil, chairman; F. A. Bristol, Nor
ton Page, l.. L. Twichell, ]. A, Ches-
ley, M. N. Hatcher, l.. r. Buxton and
w. A. Scott. Secretary Slime will
probably meet with the committee to
explain the purpose of its existence
and to outline a plan of action for the
spring city housekeeping.
"One point that stands out promin-
emily to the stranger who to
Fargo" said Secretary Slime to
Forum representative. today, "is the

and make their homes in this city.
I'VE welcome every nan inc wom-
an, whatever their station in life may
be, to our midst and offer them all adj
vantages which our pioneer residents
by their efforts have gained for this
city. We feel sure that to those who
become residents of Fargo, the in
ducement will nave to be strong that
will take them away"
In many of the cities of the country
the business districts are being orna-
mented with growing shrubbery and
plant life. The entrances Of banks are
being decorated with evergreens and
privet hedges and in the windows OF
offices in the modern skyscrap2rs dow
er boxes are being placed.
Together with cleaning up the city
and making them attractive by
their simple neatness, Secretary Slime
feels that they could be embellished
with floral decorations in keeping with
the pace. that is being set by the larger
eastern cities.

When it was announced that Get
Rich Quick Wallingford. Geo. M. CO.
hans brilliant comedy success would
be an early attraction at the Fargo
operahouse hundreds Of inquiries were
received at the box Office concerning
this production, showing an interest in
the engagement created by very few
offerings Of recent years. The play
has recently brought its years run in
Chicago to a close, and comes here al
most direct from hat city, with it's
perfect cast and production. No play
of the past decade has scored such a
smashing success as Get Rich Quick
Wallingford, not only in Chicago, but
on the road as well. The popularity
of the George Randolph Chester sto-
ries, on which the comedy is based,
coupled with Cohan's breezy style Of
humor and action, is a combination
that would be hard to equal.
Seats for the engagement went on
sale this morning.

DEMOCRATIC
VICTORY
Hon. George Neeley Elected to Con
gress BY a Majority Of Two Thous-
and--Carried Seward and Stew
ems Counties

All oyer the district the returns
dumbfounded the Republican Lend
ers with the decisiyeness with
which the voters had cast their
ballots for progressive principles
as set forth by George A. Neeley.
Ford county, normally a big Re-
publican county, and the home of
Judge Finley the second candidate
in the primary, turned out a ma
iority for Neeley. Even the Dem
ocrats were surprised at the big
majority Chairman Sam Gray
bill had predicted a plurality Of
HOO, but the returns from the
first thirteen counties gave Neeley
a plurality Of 1925. After chat 1t
was regular Democratic land
slide. Stevens county polled a
light vote, the total being 65 to 66
in favor Of Neeley. John Kelley
was away from home atl the time
of the election or Stevens county
certainly ,wodld5hsye given abig-
ger majority for Neeley than one
vote, for Kelley was pledged to
vote for Neeley and that would
have made two. Grant county
also had light vote, giving Mar
tin a majority Of seven.

By an overwhelming majority
lieorge A. Neeley was elected at
the special election Tuesday to
succeed the late + II. Madison as
the representative Of the Big Sew

victory is not alone one for the
Seventh District. 1t is a victory
Of the people, a victory over the
the old time machine politicians
whose interests we're for their
personal gain rather than for the
GOOD of the people Of the district.
George Neeley represents the pro
gressive Republicans as well as
the Democrats. The ignominious
defeat Of Judge Martin shows that
the people Of this section Of the
state OF Kansas have begun to
think. We believe that they will
keep on thinking, and 50 long as
they do SO. we will have Just such
a man as George Neeley us a Con
