COMING ATTRACTIONS

Oscar Hammerstein, whose vocal
discovery, Florence Weber, a little
American girl, electrified the musical
world, will present Naughty Mari
eta a comic opera by Victor Herbert
and Rida Johnson Young, which pack
ed the Manhattan opera house in New
York for six months. At the Grand
Friday evening.
During the weeks that the motion
picture operator remained at the
water-hole, while taking the Paul j.
Rainy pictures which will be shown
at the Grand Saturday, he noticed
one peculiar thing, which was that the
animals always preserved a certain
order in drinking if number came
down at once. The rhinoceroses were
always given the preference even by
the elephant; then the lions, leopards
and other big cats took their turn. The
giraffe and other harmless beasts al
ways stood at distance in respect to
their more powerful brethren, but at
no time did the lions attempt to modest
them, and they were seemingly i'm
mune from attack while drinking.
Standing foremost among the big
productions which have made theatre
cal history during the past decade is
'EVerywoman,'' the dramatic Specta-
Gle which Henry w Savage will offer
at the Grand opera house for three
days beginning Monday, March "a. It
has been so widely discussed that
many people who scarcely ever see
the interior of a theater have felt
moved to witness the performance and
have been it's most enthusiastic adj
vertisers. 1t offers amusement and
entertainment while teaching a lesson
at once needful and salutary. Over
many people who scarcely ever see
in the production and there is an or
chestra of symphonic qualities to rem
der the impressive score A special
matinee will be given on Wednesday
afternoon.

Washington, March 19.-With the
ratification of only three states re-

COST Of ELECTIONS
FIGURES FOR 1912 OVER $4,000
with Expenditures Of Candidates
Added Would Total More
Than SO, 900

Reference is made in the
editorial columns to bill pro-
viding for quadrennial. sessions
of the legislature and four-year
terms for state and county Off
cials. Quite aside from other
considerations, the saving that
would thus be effected is con-
siderable and well worthy of
due consideration. For in
stance the cost to Bottineau
county for elections in 1912, in
GLIDING the March presidential
primary, the June primary and
the November election, slightly
exceeds the sum of $6, 900. This
amount includes money paid to
election officers, election sup
plies, official advertising and
the printing of ballots. When
the considerable sums spent by
the candidates is added the
total would not be less than
$4,000.
1t may be noted, too, that
there is a public sentiment in
favor of giving officials four
years, by reelection for a Sec
ond term. Why not do it by
one election and save the cost
of the other7

In regard to hogs the first

two types of hogs, the lard type
and the bacon type. The first

though in the eastern market
the bacon type commands a
