LUNCHEON WAS DECIDED sue
CESS-F1SH AND RAILROAD
TIE KEYNOTE

"They came, they saw and were con
quered with the hospitality of Devils
Lake." Such was the way Ex-Gov-
ernor sarles had Of putting it, when
leaving for his home Saturday evening
after spending delightful day with
the Western Utilities party at North
Dakota's only watering place.
"Oh you Devils''. They were on
the place crds at the luncheon table
at the Great Northern hotel where the
inner man was repIenlshed in boun.
tiful way with the seasons delicacies
and an Intellectual feast Of oratorical
!outburst was greatly enjoyed.
The classification Of the ,Caautau.
qua railroad, the crying need Of the
community at this time, and the pos.
sibility Of fish in Devils Lake were the
keynotes Of the meeting and In this
particular ]: N: Kelley, E. F, Flyns
and Fred fraynor were the coasters,
while President Horton who acted as
toastmaster paid a well deserved com.
pliment to the Lake Region, in renum-
Grating its wonderful possibilities, 81.

That the Western Utilities corpora

ing the demands Of increased tele.
phone business, was shown in the talk
of President r. E. Corson.
Morton Page president Of the Fargo
Commercial club after listening to the
good things said about Devils Lake,
felt inclined to state that Fargo would
work hard to keep from becoming de-
funct. His address was Of the neigh.
borly sort and he believed that Fargo
with its annex would always secure
little Of the Devils Lake money.
Ex-Governor sarles was in his usual
happy mood and referred to his good
old Trail county as a foreign land.
However, he asserted the foreigners
had been hypnotized with the posi-
bilities Of Devils Lake and he was we
well satisfied at having been hypno
tized.
Mr.. Thrall of the Minnesota Trus,
company was also an interesting talk
er and told of the relationship of ever
Minneapolis with Devils Lake in a mr
tual business way.
At the conclusion Of the luncheon
the guests and citizens inspected tn,
new plant Of the Western Utilitie
corporation which was In good work
ing order for the occasion, each stock
holder being well pleased with tn
work of the new company and salts
fed for having invested in Devil

It is further provided to issue first
mortgage bonds totaling $4,000 on
the road which shall be used to buy
two storage battery electric cars. Ev-
cry dollar Of the money raised to be
used in actual construction and equip
mcnt and not any for promotion charg-
es or commissions.
With every share of Glass A stock
sold, one lot will be given as a bonus
by the Chautauqua association. 1t is
onservatively estimated that with the
line installed that lots will be worth
from 500 to 5000 each. The lots will
&c awarded by drawings.
With $4,000 worth of stock sold
it means that Devils Lake will have
an electric railroad from the heart OF
the city direct to the greatest beauty
spot and natural resource in the state.
1t means the redemption Of Chautau
qua and the solving of the transporta-
tion question which has for long been
ga thorn in the fesh'' Of a profitable
Chautauqua. It means the permanent
upbuilding of the city Of Devils Lake.
1t will be the keystone Of all future
community development work. Upon
the erection Of this line and the sue
cess of Chautauqua rests the future in
dustrial and commercial growth of the
city of Devils Lake.
The buyer of class A preferred stock
is getting practically $500 for $1.0o
on any conservative estimate. The
most conservative men belie.Al that
the new electric line will be a money
maker. In fact the share holders ben
eft in three ways. First in the indi-
rect commercial benefit to business in
business in the city. Second, in the
value of the preferred stock which
earns 6 per cent annually. This, in
the increasing value of the Chautau-
qua lots which he receives as a gift
from the Chautauqua association.
In response to the unanimous senti-
ment Of an enthusiastic community,
and at the request Of the board Of di.
rectors Of the Chautauqua association,

foregoing the proposed armory.auditor-
ium building this year concentrating
its efforts upon the building Of an cleo

planned to have in operation by July

been optioned, heavy rails are being
sought, labor is being lined up and
storage battery cars viii be secured.
In order to secure this line this
season, which will mean thousands Of

have n separate school with one of
their race as teacher. Some several
days ago the regular teacher resigned
and young lady was appointed to
fill the vacancy. A large number of
the colored citizens protested, claim
ing that the young lady was one of
questionable reputation. The school
board did not at once remove her and
the parents refused to send their chill
dren. The school board threatened to
have the compulsory attendance law
enforced but the Negroes stood pat
and claimed that as the school had no
legal existence, they could not be
compelled to send the children. The
matter has been finally adjusted
though.

What will
The Negro Do?

The negro in this great
state is fully aware that his
vote is counted and apprecia-
ted alike by all. He realizes
that he must always be live,
unknown factor in the states
politics. Judging from the
discriminating way he cast his
vote at the last fall and spring
elections, he plainly demon
strated that he is fully capable
and thoroughly competent of
best judging his vital interests.

cially and industrially.
The commission form of
government and its results,
the problems of the grave and
economical questions involved
in the selection of the right
men for the right places at
city hall. the social evil and
its attending conditions; all
these and lesser questions af-
fecting the general welfare,
the negro has been investigat-
ing. deliberating and discus
sing. Long ago he realized
that the peoples bread and
butter is at stake; that the
sanctity Of their homes had
been threatened and the puri-
cation of the conditions re-
Gently created and discovered
in the police and highway de-
partments, must now have his
immediate atten tion. He
knows that he can assist by
his vote to change these con-
ditions, and is cognizant Of
the fact that it is the duty of
every voter and taxpayer to
draw the line between the
man who will recognize repre-
sentative and lawabiding citi-
zens and those who will not,
and that he must vote for good
men, regardless of their party
affiliations. They must be
men who will discourage and
frown upon strife, suspection,
envy, turmoil and dissention
and who will turn their efforts
and energies to build up Den
YER first and look eternally to
Denver's best interest. He
must vote for the man who
will encourage capitalize make
and build industries for Den
YER and Colorado, because,
whatever affects the financial
success OF our business men
affects the living conditions Of
labor. Standing upon the
threshold of an eletuion where
there are over a hundred can
didates for offices, never has
the Denver negro had such
flattering opportunity for the

gate slowly and carefully, and
