N'LEAN COUNTY
FAIR POSTPONED

Underwood, N. D.. July so.-The Nc
Lean county fair, which was to come
off at Underwood Aug. 6. z and s, has
been postponed until some time. in
September. This was due to the early
harvest, which will be In full blast next
week, and which would prevent large
number of farmers throughout the
county from attending.
Prospects for the fair were exceed
ingly good had not the harvest come
at this time. Several good attractions
had been contracted for. and nothing
had been left undone to make this fair
the best in the history of Mclean
county.
Arrangements have already been
made for the same attractions to ap-
pear here for the fair to be held in
September Several other attractions
will also be added. One of the prob
able features of the fair will be aero
plane flights.

ed. Therefore war will put up the
price of American wheat to whatever
extent the demand comes on Ameri-
can supplies In case Russia is in
volved in this international imbroglic.
there is no telling to what extent the
demand on America would be. A pro-
longation of the war would put the
price of American wheat to perhaps
the highest it has been in years
$50 much for the cause of the rise,
which also explains the preliminary
jump Of the market yesterday. which
was the widest day the wheat mar
ket has seen since the days of the
Letter attempted corner in wheat in
1897. The furry caused by the at
tempt at Canadian reciprocity was
nothing to that of yesterday.
II don't believe anybody was caught
short on the Duluth market, but
there was some severe squeezing done
in Chicago Most traders have had
plenty Of time and warning to cover
their shortages.
Boom to Americans Farmer.
AS to the benefit that such a war
and the bottling up of Russia would
have for the American farmer. several
of the board of trade men assert that
1T cannot be, estimated. Said one of
them:
1T costs about 10 cents a bushel
to market wheat; that is. from the
time the wheat leaves the farmers
hands until it is finally marketed, the
cost is about 10 cents a bushei. With
dollar wheat, therefore, the farmer
would be getting 80 cents bushel.
His earnings, with the bumper crop
that he is enjoying this year, would
be enormous. Wheat might go con-
siderably over dollar, and his profit
would be in proportion in such case.
One cannot estimate just what that
would mean"
TT is also pointed out that the effect
such q war would have on wheat
would be duplicated in the realms of
manufacture as Germany is the great
est manufacturing country in Europe
and with her business crippled by
war, America would be called upon to
make up the shortage. 1t is also de-
clared that money would come from
Europe for American investment in
order to obtain safety.

Commissioner, If the Republicans win
who will have the best chance to sell
the road machinery, the supplies, the
equipment needed? Can you guess?
When you hear a loud roar about
the Highway Department remember a
lot of hungry dealers and representa-
tives are in the bushes anxious to get
at the $3,OO0,0O0 that each year goes
into the highways. 1t is not roar
from the public, 1t is the roar from
the hungry dealers and anxious agents.
Warren G. Harding said he wanted
the Republicans to come back in Ohio
in the same way that obtained in the
old days. How truly they are set for
the re-establishment of those old con-
ditions. Railway equipment men run
ming the campaign, supplying the cash,
giving orders. A crowd Of road equip
ment men supplying the noise and
clamor. How certainly a Republican
victory would bring back to the coun-
ter all of the old crowd.

The MAINE ELECTION

The result Of the election in Maine
Asnday is gratifying to Democrats as
il must be depressing to the hopes OF
the Republicans. Curtis. Democrat,
was elected governor over the present
governor, Haines. There was no
change in the congressional delega-
ton according to the available figures
1t is possible, however, that the Dem
ocrats have gained one congressman.
The Maine election shows the trend
of public sentiment and demonstrates
that the Republican party will not
come back" this year, if 1t ever does
return. 1t also shows that the people
are back of President Wilson's admin
istration and rebuke the assault being
made upon it. Maine has set the
pace, and Ohio and other states will
follow with a similar result.

And rightly SO. The present is no
year for treachery. The lines are

party Is trying to hold for the state of
Ohio all the beneficial measures that
its administration has given them,

THE ALIEN COMMANDER

With Harvey CARRIER in command on
the bridge, with railway equipment
men serving as officers and purser,
with highway equipment men in charge
of the machinery, how the Republican
ship of state is loaded for the cruise
of political pillage for which she is
now outfitting.
Small wonder the jinx is on the ship,
the machinery seems out of joint, that
signals bring no affirmative response,
that she seems foul and illsmelling as
she rides the waters. Sailors believe
ship has soul, that 1t can respond
to the touch of one fitted to command,
that il can thrill with resentment at
the touch of traitor hands.
How that old Ship of State must
groan in resentment as she feels the
tread of an alien on the bridge, views
the avaricious buccaneers in the crew
waiting for the pillage to begin. How,
II 1t has a soul, 1t resents being sent
out as scow, with an illsmelling crew,
on mission below the standard of
former years.

of revenge would war on those of his

To what ignoble purpose has the
