BABY CONTEST DECIDED

Today is Bismarck day, and it is
expected that the people Of the capi
tai city will turn out in appreciation
Of the fact that there is a real big ex
position in town. Other towns from
all parts of the state have made a
good showing, and there will con
tinue to be many visitors till the
dors close tomorrow night 1t is the
duty of everyone in Bismarck whc
possibly can to turn out today and
make the crowd bigger than ever
Bismarck is record = Breaker in
everything which she undertakes and
it is quite probable that her people
will show what they can do today
The town people have done we'll but
today they should turn out enmasse
This exposition has been big sue
cess and it now remains for the peo.
pie of this city to give it one more
boost before it closes and it's record
passes into history. Today is their
chance for tomorrow won't count,
and how we'll the Bismarckers make
good remains to be seen. ~
Exposition Closes Tomorrow.
Tomorrow, the Gath, is the last
day of the Fourth North Dakota In
dustrial exposition, and when its
doors close tomorrow night the rec.
ords of this fourth effort in this re-
spect will have been completed. So
far it has been a record breaker and
it is to wind up in blaze of glory.
Elks, Travellers and Newsies.
Tomorrow is designated for Elks
Travelling men and Newspaper men
to do as they please and they will
have the keys to the town These
three classes Of people probably re
present more hustle and enterprise
to the square inch than any other
three which could be selected. The
Travellers arrangements have been
left in tha hands of Henry Hollst OF
this city, who has made extensive ar
rangements for a parade. There will
be more doing tomorrow and tomor-
row night than upon any occasion
during the exposition. These organi
cations have never failed to make the
closing day of the exposition a rec
ord-breaker and it is quite probable
that this will be no exception, unless
it is to be the biggest and loudest
ever.
The Suffragists.
Yesterday was suffragists' day and
the women made the best of the op
portunity. The day was not as bright
as ether days during the exposition
