FAMOUS WRESTLING
BEAR IS WITH
Carnival Company to Lang
don-Will Stay in North
Dakota Till Fall.

The c. G. Patten Carnival company
has secured the services of Willett
and the famous wrestling bear, and
has added the card to their already
high class animal show. which is
playing the various North Dakota and
northern Minnesota fairs and car
niNals. Willett and the bear were in
Grand Forks last winter and for
cleVerness the animal has it on any,
thing ever seen in the country. The
bear can take %strangles, hammerlocks,
.toeholds, Nelson's and in fact every
kind of a wrestling hold as good as
a man and shows almost human in
telligence in his work. Henry Orde-
man. when he wrestled here wanted
to buy him but Willett refused to self
for any price.
The carnival company passed
through Grand Forks this morning en-
route to the Cavalier county fair,
which begins at Langdon tomorrow.
The company has had a successful
run through North Dakota and north
ern Minnesota and will stay In this
section of the country until freezing
up time. Dickey Boy, an educated
horse. is another big feature with the
carnival company. This horse sub
tracts. multiplies and adds without
the aid of signals from man. and has
many trainers guessing on the meth
DDS used in his education and also
on the precision and of the
horses figuring.

WHAT GR0NNA SAID
OF TAFT's SPEECH

Washington Post: That President
Taft's speech formally accepting re-
nomination for president was a strong
statement Of the views of those re-
publican voters who are not willing to
follow Colonel Roosevelt, is a well
nigh universal opinion of members of
congress. including democrats and in
Mr.. Taft. They think it will go a long
way toward clearly defining the issues
of the coming campaign.
Uncle Joe" Cannon. who hereto
fore has not been very enthusiastic in
his support of President Taft. al
though he has never thought Of de-
serting him even for a moment, said
yesterday:
II heard that speech at the white
reading. It speaks for itself. 1 may
add. too. that 1t is sound republican
Representative James r. Mann of
Illinois. said:
1T was probably the best speech the
president ever delivered on a political
subject. What is needed is ginger in
political speeches these days and
there was ginger in that speech"
Senator Gronna of North Dakota, a
La Toilette insurgent, said:
That was the best speech Mr.. Taft
has ever made. He stated his views
clearly. and it will help greatly t. de-
fine the issues in the presidential cam
paign. both between him and Colonel
Roosevelt and between Mr.. Taft and
Governor Wilson,"
"A pretty good speech from the
presidents standpoint" said Repre-
sentative Albert s. Burleson Of Texas.

F%UElSUPPLY N THE
NORTHWEST IS
ENDANGERED
Car Shortage will Make Coal
Scare This Fall is
Prediction.

The car shortage situation endan-
gers the coal supply of the north
west n various parts of the CONT
nent. according to the Black Dia-
mond. the official organ of the Goa
trade in the latest issue.
In speaking Of the increased
strength of the coal market the past
week 1t says that this is because
some influences, heretofore seer in
in concrete form. Ohio, Michigan
and wide territory adjacent thereto
have a definite car shortage, which Is
duplicated in the northwest, is acute
in sections Of the east, is somewhat
of a factor in the south and promises
to have an influence shortly in the
southwest.
The same paper declares that the
danger is not established beyond per-
adventure. but is a factor that must
be reckoned with. 1t is agreed that
there are not engines enough for the
crop movement and that the tie-up
that will result is bound to have a
very decided effect upon the move
says that the reason the railroads
have delayed sc long to buy sufficient
equipment and make provisions for
the next bumper crop is not because
they have not %foreseen the necessity
but because they have not had the
money and have had no credit with
those who have money to loan.
Another situation which 1t is fear
ed will cause a coal shortage, Is the
attitude taken by union miners who
refuse to work alongside Of non-un-
ion men, and as these walkouts are
frequent the production Of coal is
consequently shortened.
Middlemen all ove the country,
the Black Diamond says, r begin
ming to realize the situation and are
trying to buy coal, but are not sue
ceeding cry we'll for the reasons CIV
en-; and consequently make but very
few agreements to deliver in Septem-
her and October. The mines. it is
claimed, are also sold up so complete
ly in advance that they will have
nothing to sell before that. and even
then may not be able to make deliv-
cries because of the car situation.
