INDEPENDENCE
DAY At THE PEN
Inmates of the State Institu-
ton Will Celebrate the
Fourth of July.

That the spirit of the Fousth of
July exists even in he souls of men
who are placed in positions where
they can not get out in the open to
celebrate with their fellowmen Is
clearly evident from the following ar
ticle from the Reflector" the paper
edited and sent out by the inmates of
the North Dakota State Penitentiary
at Grove, No. Oak:
zone hundred and Thirty-seven
years ago III Fore Fathers were
about to engage in a conflict which
has come down to us as one Of our
most precious heritages. a conflict that
will ever be cited in history as one of
the most striking examples of the
struggle of a people for their freedom
and independence. Thirteen colonies
under the despotism of a mother
country, no; not a mother country.
but a master country were grooming
under the buISssns imposed upon
them. those ~peohSwere refused every
right they coul&sfeasonably expect,
and when the burden became too
heavy, the inevitable happened. On
the 4th of July 1916 the representa-
tives Of those thirteen colonies were
assembled and declared their country
free of the yoke of tyranny. they sign
w q y wv vi iuSpSIlLGlC
which would have resulted in a sum-
mary execution for every one of those
brave and noble men had they been
apprehended by the minions of the
~oppressors. Then began a conflict the
remembrance of which will never die
A few thousand men lacking the
most rudimental knowledge of mill
tary tactics. in fact lacking the most
necessary of war necessities" went in
the field against the numerous we'll
trained soldiers Of a rich and power
full country. But they had something
those soldiers did not possess, the de-
sary. in order to gain the freedom OF
their native soil, and with the help Of
God they reached their goal. 1t has
always been the custom through the
land to celebrate the anniversary of
that fateful 4th. Although, We, on
the inside of these walls have for the
present forfeited our liberty, neverthe
less, the majority Of us still have that
feeling of patriotism which should
exist in the heart of every American
citizen, be he good or bad, and
through the kind permission of our
warden. we are allowed to celebrate
this anniversary in a manner appro-
pirate to our situation. An excellent
program has been arranged. The fore
noon will be given over to athletic
sports, including foot racing, high
jumping, etc. In the afternoon there
will be a ball game between the in
mate all star team and some OUTSIDE
team "up to press time no definite ar
rangement had been made as to which
team will be here" In open air con-
cert will also be rendered during the
game. A stand will be erected for the

this occasion visitors will not be
charged any admittance fee, and If
the weather is favorable we expect a
good attendance, a good game and a
good time.

new Entrance
GATE now HERE
Big. Improvement. to. the
State Fair Grounds Be-
ing. Erected.

Visitors to the state fair this year
will pass through a handsome new
entrance. The gate which was order
cd some time ago has arrived and is a
splendid one. Representatives of the
American Steel and Wire company are
now on the grounds erecting the gate
and the fine fence that will be placed
along the south side Of the grounds.
The entrance gate has been moved
farther west. so that the congestion at
the old gate will be done away with.
The new entrance will be much nearer
the grand stand and for that reason
much more convenient for the thou
sands of sightseers who will flock
through when the big fair opens.
Transportation accommodations will
be better than w this year. There
are more taxicabs and the street cars
will be able to handle the large crowds
even better this year than last. The
increased facilities Of the street car
company will help out a great deal.
1t is thought that more people will
spend the entire day on the grounds
than before. The quick lunch people
and the other eating places are max
ing elaborate preparations to feed the
crowd rapidly and we'll.

NAMESAKES OF CITIES.
The City of Cincinnati Has Only
Two Towns Named After 1t.


= : = = = =
One might naturally suppose that
New York, for so many years the
dominant city of the United States,
would have some namesakes among
the numerous towns which have come
into being all over the country during
the past half century, but the fact is
that there Is not n town in all the
United States named for New York,
the daddy of them all. so to say.
Maybe somebody can say why this
is, but l cannot, though 1 am sure not
a few New Workers have had a hand
in starting new towns in various
states. Our next-door neighbor, Phil
adelphia, as slow as she is alleged to
be. beats us out. for there are six
Philadelphias scattered about. and
namesakes. Even Brooklyn puts 1t
all Yer New York. for there are fiji
teen Brooklyns on the map, which
shows that whatever New Workers
may think of Brooklyn, Brooklynites
think more of Brooklyn than New
Workers think of New York when they
go away from their home cities to
start new ones.
San Francisco and New Orleans are
no better represented than New York,
while Chicago and Baltimore have
only n namesake apiece, though to
hear Chicago one would imagine that
every other new town in the ountry
had been named after her. Chicago
has nothing whatever on st. Louis in
the matter Of accommodating name
sakes-one. only one. each. and the
only equality that Chicago is bound
to admit.
Pittsburg has as many namesakes
as Boston. eleven. but all of them
combined haven't as much money as
Pittsburg. and h same might be said
of Boston's namesakes in regard to
brains, though far be it from me to
say it. Washington heads the list in
the number Of namesakes, twenty
eight, but it is not the capital so
much as it is the immortal George
which carries in this case
Cleveland is only one short of
Washington, and why there should be
26 Clevelands in this country in addi-
ton to the one in Ohio I don't know.
I fancy some of them were named in
honor Of President Cleveland. as every
president gets at least n or two post
offices named after him as a reminder
of what he Is to postmasters. Cincin-
natl is a smoothly sibilant name, and
Cincinnati used to be quite a place,
but 1t has only W namesakes. the
same as Milwaukee. which is famous
in other respects than in its name
sakes..
Why cities with distinctively state
names, as Minneapolis and Indian
apolis. should have namesakes In 9TH
er states is past finding out, but Min
neapolis has one in North Carolina
and n in Oklahoma. Still those
three towns had better be named as
they are than to be called North Caro-
~linaopolis. Kansasopolis and Oklaho-
maopolis.
Looking over the list I find that
there are FL Columbuses. all Of them
no doubt named in honor Of the dis
coverer. as Ohio's capital was. There
are 20 Buffaloes, 16 Atlantas. "a

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 9.-Although
New York shows suspense of support and
an easier tone, Liverpool was little al
fected and ruled firm over our holiday,
with spot sales totaling $4,000 bales and
1000 bales, respectively. The market,
however, eased today on the census re-
port closing points lower on the day.
The census gives 1913, 257 ginned to
January I, which compares with 14,3l7,-
002 bales last year, 11,0S4.5l5 In 1910 and
with 12.465, 298 in 1908. Ginnings for the
period are $4,000 this year, against 547,-
600 bales last year and $4,000 in 1910.
The large ginnings in Georgia were par
ticularly surprising and the state shows
1857. 016 ginned TO January I, against
the government estimate OF 1,701,000 total
for the state.
Our market opened about "a points

was an eager demand for contracts from
the start, and prices rapidly recovered IL

yesterday was the heavy selling by brok-
