BISMARCK BECOMING A cONVEN
TON CITY.

Among several nice mentions re-
Gently which the Minneapolis Trib.
n has made OF the city OF Bismarck
Is one which points out the fact that
the capital city is fast becoming q
convention city, which is a recogniz'
ed fact over the entire state. Follow
inc is the article clipped from that
paper of recent date:
Bismarck, the capital city OF North
Dakota, is fast becoming a convention
city. and this fact points in no un-
certain manne to the rapid deN,
opment Of the city. Sea-
Every year finds more conventions
Deing held in Bismarck. Only a few
days ago there were three conven'
tons on in the city simultaneously,
two of them being quite large in num-
beers of attendants. In recognition OF
this development, the city is now
erecting a large and strictly up-to.
date auditorium, which will accom-
modate any crowd for many years to
come. In addition to this, there are
several large public buildings which
can be used for convention purposes,
including the commodious ar:nory OF
Company A, n. D. n. G.
Not only is Bismarck fast Decom.
ing equipped with public buildings
for such occasions, but it low is abso.
for such occasions. but is now is
abundantly supplied with hotels to
take care of any crowd which may
come to town. There are Two large
and strictly modern hotels, the Nc
Ken2ie, seven stories, and the Grand
Pacific, four stories. but covering
more ground than the Mckenzie, and
Of equal capacity. The fact that a
city of the small size of Bismarck
supports two hotels Of such capacity
is remarkable and is the wonder OF
all who see them, But the fact that
these two institutions and a half
dozen lesser one thrive in a town Of
less than 5000 inhabitants is testi
monial to the throng of travellers
which is ever present in Bismarck.
Bismarck serves a large territory
which is not confined to the entire
state, but which extends into South
Dakota and far into Montana. While
there are but two railroads into Bis
-narck, yet their several branches
reach in various directions and the
service is such as to make the CAPT
tai city the most central Of any city
in the state. More territory can be
reached in less time and at less ex
pense than from any other city.
Its geographical situation, its nat
ural our and its advantages in
every line are such as to have des
tined 1t to become The Next City
West" There is no question about
It,"

The Little Blue Stockings.
By Will Chamberlain.

Long years have these little blue stockings
Lain hid in this old fashioned trunk;
Safe guarded from moth and from handling,
In other soft treasures deep sunk.
the smallest and ~frailest of ribbon
Forms daintiest bands at their tops;
! am not very sure You could match it
Today in the best of the shops.
You scarcely would notice these stockings
Did you chance to delve where. they repose
The world is so busy and hurried, Il
Sc @restlessly onward it goes;
But there are a father and mother
Who previously keep in their hearts
The tale OF these wee baby stockings,
A story unblaZOncd by arts.
Thro.Shaze of the past there is shining
The smile OF a round baby face,
And the wonder Of eyes just beholding
This realm with its multiple grace;
While borne on the wings of remembrance
Is waited a gurgle Of glee,
As light as the purr of a ripple
On the shore OF a dream pictured sea.
You know how they are-ah, far better
Than ever my rhyning may tell.
Those stories of keepsakes we cherish
With all Of their magical spell.
o sweet little, blue little stockings,
Made holy by silence and tears,
A thread that is golden, eternal
Has fastened you into the years.

WHAT OUR NEICHBCRS SAY
The supreme Court Vacancy and Pos
siblc Selections by Governor
Fletcher.
(From the Randolph Herald J

Governor Fletcher has heavy respon-
sibility resting on him in the appointment
of chief justice of the Vermont SUI
fpreme court, due to the retirement Of
Justice RoWell; which also involves the
addition OF one justice to the supreme
bench, and possibly change in the low
er or superior court bench. The natural
order would be the elevation Of the old
est supreme justice in point or service to
the chair Of the chief justice, moving
the remaining justices along step each;
promoting the senior superb" judge to
the lowest place on the supreme bench;
moving the others along notch, and
selecting some good lawyer of judicial
temperament for the FRESHMAN" of the
lower court.
This would mean that Loveland Nun
son Of Manchester would become chief
justice and Judge willard W. Miles Of
Barton would be advanced from the SUI
perior to the supreme court. There is
some objection to such a plan. chiefly on
the ground of Justice Munson's advanced
age--he Is 70-yet the prevalent sentiment
seems to favor the regular order of pro-
motion.
If Governor Fletcher does the uneX-
pected, it is assumed that he will name
Hon. George M Powers of Morrisville.
the junior member of the supreme court,
as chief justice, and he may fiji the
vacancy without disturbing the superior
bench Everyone comedies the strength
of Justice Powers and his capacity for
even the highest place, the only diff
| ference of opinion being the question OF
| his really superior merit over others
ahead of him, and their better claim to
the place in point of experience and SER
vice. His advancement over their heads
might cause some heartbunings, vet If
the Governor should be honestly con-
WINGED that Justice Powers deserves the
place through merit alone he should not
hesitate to name him. Notwithstanding,
Vermont wants the ablest chief justice
obtainable, and individual senstiveness
should not stand in the way.
There is some question, too, whether
Judge Miles will be moved on from the
superior to the supreme bench, When
the court was divided in 1906 Judge Miles
went back from the higher to the lower
court, by terms OF the law itself He
would now seem to claim justly place
on the supreme bench. 1t is unlikely that
any other superior judge. with the pos
sible exception of Judge Taylor, would
be recognized ahead of him, and 1t would
be most unusual thing for the Govern
or to step outside entirely and name a
man who has not sat on either bench
for a place in the higher court Yet nc
ona seems assured regarding this ap-
pointment.
In any event one new judge or justice
Twin be created, and the question is whol
