Burke county's third annual talr
proved to be a nowling success IN
spite OF the threatening weather,
and thousands of people were pres
ent yesterday and the day De1ore
to look at the exnlDlts, see the
horse races and other contests, hear
the speakers and III other ways
amuse themselves. The best there
was produced in the county during
the year 1913 was shown at this
fair, horses from all over this Sec
ton OF the state took part in the
races, and the best speakers pro-
durable in the northwest were pres
ent to talk on agricultural topics.
The first day of the fair was re-
served for the purpose Of taking
entries and the various superln-
tendents together with the secretary
worked hard all day IN getting
things in readiness for the two days
following. The real fair started
the following day, and from tnat
time until late last evening one OF
the best exhibitions OF farm pro-
duce ever shown in the state could
be seen at the fair grounds. Al
though the weather was threaten
ing on all three days and looked
very much as though rain or snow
might fall any minute, the crowds
each day grew larger until the
streets OF the city were almost i'm
possable, and the grand stand and
nearly all standing room at the fair
GROUNDS covered with enthusiastic
people. .

500 TRAIN CRASHES
INTO GRAIN WAGON
CUTS HORSES LOOSE, BUT IN
WIREs MAN-DRIVER MAY
DIE.

FOxholm, N. D., Oct. 4.-Running
forty miles an hour, train No. 80
on the 500 railroad crashed into the
wagon being driven by Jasper Long
anecker, young farmer of this vi
cinity about p. M. last night, cut
the horses loose. splintered the wa
gon to pieces and threw the young
man against the pilot with terrivc
force, and carried him along the
right of way for over 200 feet.
The young man was returning to
his farm after unloading a tank of
grain at the elevator He was just
crossing the tracks on the main line
with his team when struck and had
not apparently seen anything of the
approaching express. The horses
were we'll over the track when the
crash came and were cut clear of
the wreckage, escaping without a
scratch.
Longanecker was thrown to the
Pilot OF the engine and sustained
several severe injuries before the
train was halted.
DR.. Hills Of Berthold was called
and rushed the patient to the hos
pital at Kenmare where it was
found that he was suffering from
a broken leg, internal injuries and
severe gashes about the head and
face. So badly was he cut and
crushed that very little hope is
held for his recovery. He has
wife and a one year old baby.
Longanecker had just finished
unloading grain at the elevator and
was driving back across the main
tracks when the accident occurred.
Just before the crash, he saw the
approaching train and made an ef-
fort to get across but too late. The
train which was running at fast
rate of speed, missed the horses
which the man had whipped across
the track but struck the wagon on
which he was sitting and threw
him before the train. ;=7 ~ ! - .:s s5sss-

CROSBY TRAIN IS
DESTROYED BY FIRE
Early Morning Blaze In Loca
Yards Does $lO,OOO.OO
Damage.

Minot, N. D., Oct. 6.-Train No.
2zO on the Great Northern was
totally destroyed by fire in the yards
at Crosby, N. d., early yesterday
morning, following its trip from
the southeastern part of the state.
NO one was injured, however.
The train, which left M1not on
its trip north at 3 o'clock Saturday
afternoon, was standing in the yards
at Crosby waiting until Monday to
resume service. 1t does not run on
Sunday.
The two coaches and a combina-
ton mail and baggage car Of which
the train is composed, were totally
destroyed by flames. The Crosby
fire department was called out and
fought in an effort to prevent the
spread of flames to other cars in
the yards.
me blaze was spectacular ana
could be seen IRON all parts or
Crosby Quite number Of citizens
turned out to witness the scene of
destruction.
1t is estimated that the damage
will be probably more than $4,000.
Just how the blaze started is mot
known, but it is suspected that some
tramps smoking in the cars or
building a fire nearby caused the
destruction of the train.
An investigation is under way
now, but so far no good clues have
been unearthed.
1t has also been said that prObab-
ly clnders from the roundhouse
started the fire. The roundhouse
caught fire and the firemen had
great difficulty in saving the struc-
ture. Great piles of wood stood
next to the roundhouse and if these
had ignited the flames would have
worked great damage in Crosby.

Stop to Burke County Fair
Here Yesterday Afternoon
LE SEUER SHOWING
SURPRISING STRENGTH

Minot, N. D., Oct 6.-With Le-
Seuer, former president of the city
commission, running against Presi-
dent Davis in the coming election,
the introduction of a third party in
the field would OF necessity write
the certain defeat of Davis and the
probable election OF LeSeuer, as
the socialists backing LeSeuer are
showing surprising strength and a
split in the fusion ticket at this
time would be disastrous.
On the same ticket with LeSeuer
is Dorman the commissioner OF
streets against whom a recall petl-
tion was made and who Is one OF
the basic causes OF the calling OF
tEe coming election and Elsele, a
macnln1st in the Great Northern
roundhouse, who is running for a
seat of the commission.
10 defeat Dorman, the socialist
the fusion ticket introduced a nom
mating petition for John NJ. Wilson,
business man OF Mlnot whose
name will go on the othc1al ballot,
his petition having been accepted
by the city auditor before the ex-
piration OF the time limit. On
the other nand the socialists Will
all have to use the "sticker" system
to get on the ballots. But in plac-
ing Wilson on the ticket, the sup
porters OF the present admlnlstra-
the fact that the
socialists might use the ''stlcker
system" and come in anyhow, which
undoubtedly will give Dorman much
better chance for reelection.
Following the publication of their
ticket, the socialists issued a formal
challenge to Davis and the other
commissioners to meet them in for
NAL and public debate on questions
at Issue.
In answer, President Davis states
that nc will not mount a platform
in debate with the socialists, there
being no issue to debate upon IN
MS estlmatlon. lie publicly de-
clares the coming election to be only
the difference between socialism and
anti-socialism and not question of
other matters.
1t is prophesied by many of those
close III touch with the situation
re that the election Will De a
close one, and great interest is be-
ing displayed in every quarter. A
defeat registered against the So
clallsts at this election Will erect
ually rob them of their strength for
some time to come and success
will place them in control OF the
city administration.
