PROGRESSIVES MEET.
Prospects for Third Ticket Oisap-
pearing.

Fargo.-Progressive candidates from
all parts of the state met in Fargo
to consider the third party situation.
They came to the conclusion that they
will stand pat as to nominees of the
recent primaries. At the same time
they declared they do not expect to
put third state ticket in the field.
The meeting marked the coalition
of the old and the new progressives
in North Dakota. At the session were
A. T. Kraabel of Clifford, nominee for
lieutenant governor; Congressman
Helgesen of the first district; George
E. Young of Valley City, nominee for
congress in the third district; WAL
ter c. Taylor, nominated for insurance
commissioner; .Treadwell Twitchell Of
Mapleton; Robert n. Pollock of Fargo.
who seconded the nomination of La
Toilette at Chicago, states attorney Of
Cass county; Thomas Marshall Of
Cakes. Republican national committee
man. and other members of the old
progressive party.
None betrayed the slightest fear that
third party state ticket will be
placed in the field and all appeared
| elated that they will have the oppor-
tunity of fighting under the Roosevelt
banner. They hold that they are the
original progressives in the state and
that the newer progressives must rec
ognize them.
The belief grows among politicians
here that CONGRESSMAN Hanna, can.
didate on the republican ticket for
governor. will declare for Roosevelt
and thus save the progressives the
necessity of running a third candidate
for governor.

Grand Chancellor Frank

son, both of Salem, made an
official visit to Doric Lodge No.
20, K. of P. on Tuesday evening.
These gentlemen have been TAX
ing in the lodges of the Grand
Domain of Oregon and departed
on Wednesday for Ontario. Mr..
Wrightman delivered a splendid
address on Pythianism to the as
sembled Knights, and proved
himself to be an orator of no
mean ability. He was followed
in an able manner by Mr.. Stin-
son, who, by the way, has occu-
pied his position with the order
for the past sixteen years, and is
a walking encyclopedia of infor-
nation and experiences gathered
concerning the state of Oregon
from the trips that he has taken
over the field, and it is very in
teresting indeed to listen to him
speak. A banquet of CLAIMS and
other necessary "fixins" follow
ed the close of lodge and a fine
social time was spent. The visit
of the grand officers has enthused
the Knights and filled them with
renewed vigor.

Attempted Train Wreck.

An attempt to wreck the
local train was made by some un-
known party on Tuesday morn
ing. Shortly after leaving the
depot at Lexington, and while
the train was not yet under full
speel, they ran onto fish plate
that had been placed on the rail.
The obstruction was discovered
by the engineer, and the emer-
gency brakes thrown on, but this
did not prevent the engine pass
ing over the piece of steel. Had
the train been running at full
speed it would have been derailed.
What motive could be behind
this it is hard to conjecture.
The case will doubtless receive
some investigation at the hands
of the district attorney who was
on the tarin at the time. This
also suggests to Supt. Notson,
who was going to lone by the
same train, that it was a good
time to get rid of a few unde-
sireable county officials and work
the recall on them. Judge Pat
terson, Supt. Notson and Dist.
VanVactor all being
the passengers. The plac-
ing of the fish plate on the rail
might have been the work of
some thoughtless boys, with no
criminal intent but it could have
caused serious accident.
