Barrie. N. D., March 25.-To The
Forum: still the winter SHOWS linger
in the lap of spring, much to the dis
gust OF the farmers who are anxious
to get to work In the fields. ~
The caucus ticket was elected last
week and the following officers are to
be sworn in today: Supervisors, Geo.
Vangsness and Oscar Rosendah1; clerk

tice of the peace, o. A. Allen.
L A small but enthusiastic meeting OF

audience.

Representative Blakemore and passed
at the recent session of the legislature.
Undoubtedly at the present time
the commission system of city gov
ernment appeals to the majority of
the voters of Fargo, as being a great
Improvement over the present form of
city government. There is, however, a
minority at this time working persist
emily against the adoption of the new
system of government for Fargo.
Those particularly interested in Sc
curing the defeat of the commission
system on April z are not now appear
ing as openly opposed to it's adoption,
but nevertheless using every means
known to them to insure it's rejection
1t behOoves every elector interested
in securing the commission system for
Fargo to get to work for It. Especial
ly should he Tefute, wherever heard,
any charge that the laws covering the
commission system OF city government
are not as well considered and as ad-
VantageouS to cities operating there
under as are those Of any other state.
In statements of this character lie the
only chance to mislead the electors of
Fargo into opposing the adoption Of
the commission plan.
Our laws are all right, the COM
mission system has been approved by
every one Of the hundreds OF cities in
the country, where II has been tried !;
and the way to insure this govern
ment for Fargo is for every progress
sive citizen to make 1t his particular
business from now until the polls
close on April Z, to consistently and
persistently work and boost for 1t.
The result of the coming election,
may at this time, seem a foregone
conclusion, but neither in Fargo nor
in any city of it's size. will the COM
mission system Of city government be
adopted, without the united effort Of
those demanding such government.
The opponents to progress are always
united, overconfidence provides their
opportunity"

A POET IN THE CABINET.

Hark! A fumbling in the distance
Strikes terror to the heart
On! How well they know the mean
OF that distant, dismal roar.
Quick they drew their coats about
them.
Threw themselves upon the floor.
Through the headings, airways, cham
hers,
Every open space Ii came
With voice more loud than thunder
With q solid wall OF flame,
Rails and gleepers, doors and brattice
Cars and timbers, coal and rock
Crushing, tearing, rushing, roaring,
BLEW before the mighty shock.
EtalWart men were but as feathers
Driven with a cyclones ire:
Fast their flesh and sinews ShiveIed.
Scorohed and roasted with the Are.
Some were hurried against the pillars
Mangled, bleeding, dying, dead.
Arms and legs torn from the body.
Bodies severed from the head.

in the Northwest, but certainly could
get a larger salary to manage some
major league team that he receives
as president of the Northwestern
League. He has frequently declared
that he was making too much money
to again take an active part in base
ball, but it is significant that he has
several times tried to get block of |
big league stock.
Jones was one of the best expo |
nents of the much talked of inside |
baseball, and he knew the game from |
top to bottom. What some of the |
present managers call inside" stuff |
would have been crude work for stu |
dents of the Jones school. He won
games with a minimum of hits. His |
players were on the alert and took |
advantage of every slip of the enemy. |
They won because of their ability to |
take advantage of the weakness of |
their opponents than because of their |
own mechanical strength.
He specialized in pitchers, and in
every branch of defense. Under the
Jones system couple of runs for his
team meant victory. And he push
ed those two runs home over appar-
emily impossible distractions. With
weak batters to carry out his ideas,
the runs were walked, hunted and
stolen around to the plate.
He gave to the White Sox their
title of "hitless wonders" With bis
departure the hitless part still stuck,
but the wonder appellation was lost.
Several managers since Jones have
attempted to copy his system with
other teams. They have failed, and
with far better material than the
former Sox manager had at his COM
mand.
1t is practically certain that he will
be offered managerial berth by
some big league club. Whether he
can resist the call of the diamond,
the lure of a good fight, remains to
