Wherever there is SCH Of of
music it is an indication of the
fine financial status of the people
and mark of their interest in the
fine things of life. Music is one of
the highest arts. Every one eth

or be able to appreciate music
given by others. A conservatory
brings a high class of teachers
together and such a faculty can
accomplish more than private

Wahpeton will wish to hear him

again.
Mayor Fligelman in his witty,
and suggestive talk. gave those
present valuable idea upon
which to work. In speaking he
said that there is no reason why
Wahpeton should not be a city of
10000 people, if each and every
citizen did his part to build up the
city. No banker. or other investor
puts money into a city. unless that
city looks prosperous. weeds arc
cut down, lawns are kept up, and
a general air of interest and ac-
tivity prevails. He went on to say.
that after the new Filtration
plant is installed, Wahpeton
will then have an adequate supply
of good water. and quite sufficient
for all sprinkling purposes. His
suggestion that a city Civic i'm
provement League be formed. and
that fund be created by this Lea
que for such property where the
owner can not afford to make the
needed Improvement met with the
general approval. The statement
that he himself would give 800
towards such fund was met with
anplause.
If all citizens would follow out
the suggestions of Mayor Fligel-
man. new houses and homes
would be erected. for men would
wish to invest in such a nrogres-
sive city.
Several new names were added
to the already growing list of the
Brotherhood.

OLD LANDMARK
IS DESTROYED
Building Known as the Old Log
Cabin, in Fourth Ward,
Burned to Ground.

The old landmark on the bottoms,
between Eighth and Ninth streets,

run to the scene hut could do moth
ing, as there is no water available
in that district. The building was
constructed almost entirely of ties,
and burned fiercely. No other build
ings were close enough to be in dan
ger.
The log cabin has been landmark
in Bismarck for many years. 1t was
closed early in the summer by F. u.
Watkins, of the State Enforcement
League, and was unoccupied, so far as
known, at the time Of the fire.

GERMANY SAYS SHE
IS IN splendid
SHAPE TO Stand war

Berlin, via London, Oct. 3.-Ger-
many's position, economically and
financially, is such as to enable her
to carry the war to successful con-
clusion, in the opinion of Vice Chan
cellor Delbrueck. The country can
not be starved out, declared the vice
chancellor in an interview. Unem-
ployment is steadily decreasing, with
five or six million men IN the field,
and it is said many Industries are
working overtime on war orders.
Orders and measures have been
taken to divert labor from idle branch
es to busy departments, until the un-
employed numbers only from to Z
per cent of the workingmen in the
country. Measures are taken to put
finances and credit of trade and OF
industry on a war footing. These
were so thoroughly successful that a
general moratorium undoubtedly will
be warded off during the entire war,
placing Germany in a far better posi-
tion after the war than the states
whose industrial life is affected by
moratorium.
