made by King George yesterday to the
political leaders who met at Bucking-
ham palace to confer on the Irish home
rule problem. He thus set at rest vari-
Gus reports circulated since the Ulster
controversy has become acute and
since the first announcement OF the
conference.
The, premier said: "The speech was
sent to me in the ordinary way by his
majesty the day before it was deliver
ed and I take the entire responsibility
for it."
Public interest in the crisis over the
Irish home rule question oVershadoW-

When representatives OF the liberals
conservatives, Irish nationalists and Ul-
ster unionists arrived at buckingham
palace to continue their conference
with a view to pacific settlement OF
the Ulster problem they found an
enormous crowd assembled. Having
disposed of preliminaries at yester-
days formal meeting, when King
George addressed the statesmen, the
conference tackled the crux of the
problem-the area of Ulster to be ex-
cluded from operatlonS or irish nome

this exclusion.

positions, but it is understood that
Premier Asquith is likely to submit
to the conference a proposal to allow
the Protestant counties of Ulster to
vote together on the question of ex-
clusion from the home rule parliament
Sir Edward Carson, the Ulster union
ist leader, will lmake fight to have the
county of Tyrone included in this
agreement This proposition will, 1t is
believed. provoke a conflict.
The liberal newspapers In the prov

Georges speech. They appear to be
particularly irritated at the phrase.
"the cry Of civil war is on the lips Of
the most responsible and er-mind-

might have been taken from the
speeches of Ulster leaders.

Moorhead day at the North Dakota
State fair attracted many business
men and residents of the Minnesota
side cf the river, and, although the at
tendance through the morning was re-
tarded by the threatening weather, to-
ward noon a continuous line of state
fair visitors began filing through the
entrance, and 1t was anticipated that
the patronage would be very encour-
aging.
In spite Of yesterdays heavy rain
no unpleasant latter effects were
visible on the fair grounds. and every
thing was in sr'ick and span shape to
greet today's visitors.
Band concerts were held in the
business district before the bands left
for the fair grounds, where they were
continued through the morning, The
judging of livestock attracted many
visit ,rs to the barns, and the splendid
exhibits We're very favorably COM
mented upon.
More than 100 musicians participat-
ed liz the band concert that announc-
ed the opening of the pike" attrac-

concert was held at old settlers head
quarters. ..- .
Approximately 80 per cent of the
visitors who reached the fair grounds

the special trains from LaMoure, over
the N. p. and from New Rockford,
over the Great Northern, would bring
many hundreds more.
Instead of hurting the fair attend
ance, state fair officials believe that
yesterdays rain will prove a great
boosting feature ana tomorrow at

breaker,
Afternoon Program.
Band concerts by the Fargo band,
the First regiment band, the MayviIie

steaders are as a rule of scanty means,
and the Ignite is practically the only
fuel available. .
This region was recently examined
by the United States Geological sur
vey, which found that the Ignite beds
are for the most Iart thin and of little
value but will furnish considerable
fuel for local use. In many places
beds of Ignite not over eighteen inch
es thick have been mined for local use
by stripping off the overburden of
shals or sandstone. In some parts of
the field examined the Ignite beds are
much thicker, in one place as much as
thirteen feet and mining is carried on
by drifts, and in one place by a shaft.
The most important mining centers at
present are near Haynes, on the Chi
cago, Milwaukee 81 st. Paul railway,
in Adams county, and near Leith, on
the Cannonball branch of the same
railway, in southwestern Morton coun-.
ty. The government report on this

the imperial Pekinese Troop, suspend
ed by the hair Of their heads from a
wire hung. from the pinnacle of the
grandstand, was a thriller that was
greatly appreciated by the spectators.
The exhibition drill by the hospital
corps Of the First regiment, North Da-
kota National guard, also proved an
especially interesting attraction.
Hundreds of old settlers and North
Dakota pioneers were attracted to old
settlers headquarters. where an excel
lent iand concert was given at 2 %. m.
Band concerts galore, the third per-
fornlance of the big state fair night
show, with many new vaudeville at
teractions, and the display of New
tons famous fireworks, with a. feature
set piece designed especially for the
occasion, will entertain state fair yis-
itors tonight.
With the barometer rising, and a.
patch of blue sky in sight shortly after
the neon hour, the outlook at the fair
grounds was particularly encouraging.
The dust has been settled, the temper
ature is improved, and everything
points to an exceptionally successful
finish for the last half of the week.
