GIVING AID Ell !z!z I
TO DEMOCRATS

Last Friday evening Judge Fitzger-
aid Of New York city and H. H.
Turner of Fargo addressed a small
audience in the court house in this
city, on the Progressive or "Bull
Moose" issues Of the day. Judge Fitz
gerald is an able talker. and he has
heretofore been a Tamany Democrat
seeming to know much of the work
ings Of that corrupt body and told
many things to it's detriment. H. h.
: Turner of Fargo has also been q
Democrat in the past and while it is

D. J. LAXOAL
PASSES AWAY

Dan j. Ladal the well known Cav
alier citizen passed away at hospit-
al in Grand Forks last Friday and
the remains were removed to his Cav
alier home where the funeral, which
was largely attended, was held Tues
day afternoon. Mr.. Laxdal was an
old timer in the state and has beep
identified for many years as one
the leaders of the Republican pal
of the state. At one time he was CT
missioner of school lands. He has a
large acquaintance over the state and
leaves hosts of friends to mourn his
death.

that about all these men are accom-.
plishing in their talks over the state,
is to try and keep up dissention and
dissatisfaction among the Republicans
50 that when the election rolls around
in the fall the Democrats can grab
the offices. We can see but little else
they are trying to accomplish and as
they have been old time Democrats
in the past we question their motives
further than that they are looking for
personal political preference and no.
toriety.

SNOW FALL IS
GREAT BENEFIT

The snow fall this week has pleased
us all. While it has made things
little nasty underfoot, farmers and
others are of the opinion that it is a
good thing for the country. Before
this snow there had been but very
little snow this winter, and It had all
disappeared several days ago, leaving
the sloughs without any water in them
and the ground was rapidly drying
out. This recent fall of snow will
make water In all sloughs which will
help the hay crop wonderfully.
