All Space Taken.
Every bit at available space in the
Liberal Arts building has been taken.
Grand Forks firms in particular, real
izing the unusual opportunity of
showing their wares to the public,
have secured space and some Of the
finest exhibits ever built up in this
part OF the country are being ar
ranged. Expert trimmers and decor
ators are here from various parts of
the country arranging classy booths
and seelgant premiums will be handed
out by many Of the firms as souvenirs

Concessions Good,
The concession managers have
been more than careful about the
class Of places that are being put in.
Every man who has been rented
space has signed a contract not to
graft on the public and only legiti-
mate enterprises are allowed to be on
the grounds. The first indication Of
holding up patrons. of these estab-

Washington. July "a statement.
approved by President Taft, defending
his nomination by the. Chicago con-
vention, was made public at the white
mouse today. 1t reviews every contest
before the republican national COM
mittee and the credentials committee
OF the convention and asserts that
en- its merits. The statement was
submitted to the cabinet at a recent
meeting and received and approval of
the presidents official family.
The statement which is a lengthy
document OF IA printed pages, is a
detailed denial of the charge that the
denomination of President Taft was
accomplished by the seating Of fraud
Glently' elected delegates to the con-
yention. 1t takes up individually the
23S contests instituted by the Roose-
We're seated, and presents evidence in
each Of these cases to show that the
TAFT delegates were regularly elected.
A resume Of the statement, prepared
by Charles D. Hilles, formerly Presi-
dent Taft's secretary and now chair
man OF the republican national COM
mittee. takes up each contest briefly.
This resume opens with the declara-
ton that the Roosevelt contests. as
originally filed before the national
committee were not instituted in good
faith.

essary to choice. Mr.. Taft had 561
votes on the first and only ballot and
was declared the nominee. There
we're instituted against 23s Of the
delegates regularly elected for TAFT,
contests on behalf Of Roosevelt.
These contests were avowedly instig-
ated not for the purpose Of really Sc
curing seats in the convention, not
Tor the purpose of adducing evidence
which would lead any respectable
court to entertain the contests. but for
the purpose Of deceiving the public in
to the belief that Mr.. Roosevelt had
more votes than he really had. az the

IN
KANSAS CASE
Presidential Electors Contest
May be Carried to Su-
preme Court by Taft.

Topeka. Kas., July 2e-under a
stipulation entered into last night by
opposing attorneys in the presidential
electors case, county clerks are re-
strained from printing the republican
primary ballots until Thursday at
least
The stipulation was prepared by
D. r. Hite for the Taft forces and
Congressman Fred S. jackson for the
Roosevelt forces. 1t was agreed to
by Governor Stubbs. The stipulation
provides that no preparations for the
primary prejudicial to the Taft forces
shall be made until the application for
writ of error and supersedeas can
be heard, not later than Thursday,
August l. 1t is stipulated that the
county clerks may proceed with the
printing Of the ballots Immediately
upon the announcement of the court
decision.
The last time the court was called
to pass upon contest over presiden-
tial electors was in 1902 when bitter
controversy over the manner of Sc
lecting electors in Michigan came up
for decision. There an order of re-
view was granted and by advancing
the case for consideration on the first
day of the October term, the court
disposed of the case before the No
vember election.
