. ACT COMEDY At ISLAND PARK

Sunday Afternoon Wyndmere
came. saw and went home feeling
mighty blue. Lefty Faust tae
Pride Of the Red was on the mound
for the little twins and his port
side deliveries were too battling
for the opposing team to solve.
1t was a merry go round in al
most every inning and the hitting
of that old pill by the little tribe
showed that it takes a "Christy'
to slip it over on them on the
third strike.
10 say anything about the play
could be said thusly: AS there
were very few errors. a nunbe.
of base hits resulted and hc
score Of ~ to finishes the tale.
Near the last of the game. Rip
perton who had been hitting into
their hands disguise himself with
an auburn hair wig and walked
out to do the honors thereof. With
this new man at the plate with
three on. it looked to the pitcher
that the management was sending
in a pinch hitter, but Rip just met
her on the nose and scored me
three runs, taking two sacks him
self.

CROPS LOOK FINE

Famers coming into Wahpe-
ton from all over the state report
that the crops are in fine condi-
tion everywhere. The cool
during the spring. has
stopped the growth of grain but
has given it chance 10 stool.
One farmer coming from Willis
ton recently states that in all the
years he has never seen a crop to
compare with the one this year as
far as sturdiness is concerned.
Little damage has been done by
rain and no damage by hail. The
wind storm early in the season did
no where near the damage as was
at first estimated.
The slight decrease in the wheat
crop from wind will be more than
made up in flax and feed crops &C
cording to statements.
Stock shipments in the state are
continuing and are heavy for
this time of the year. Many
farmers are hauling grain sold
from last years crop and eleva-
tors are shipping freely.

N. P. FREIGHT
HITS AUTO
At Second st. Crossing and Mr..
and Mrs. George w. Blake
Are In
The WAHpETON HOSPITAL
Severely injured and It Is Though,
That Mr.. Blake Is Critically
injured

Tuesday evening at about nine
thirty O'Clock Mr.. and Mrs. G. W..
Blake of this city, accompanied
by Mrs. George Quine and her two
children and Agnes and Crescentia
Bader, while driving about the
city in a Ford were hit by the west
bound N. y. freight on the 2nd ST..
crossing. All were thrown heavi
ly from the car and it was soon
learned that Mr.. and Mrs. &. w.
Blake were the most unfortunate
ones. They were soon taken to
the Wahpeton hospital were Drs.
Devine and O'Brien looked after
their injuries.
1t is reported to this paper that
the freight train was backing up
from breckenridge and the train
came down upon them without
carrying any lights. The auto
mobile was carried distance If
about one-fourth to one-third of
"a block and tore up several tics
AMI derailed a sand car or a gund
ola. The sand had to be shovel
ed out before the car could be put
back upon the track. 1t is also
reported that the automobile was
underneath the car and if this is
true then il is a miraculous how
the seven occupants escaped alive.
Mrs. Quine and her two children
are in bed badly bruised and at the
present time of writing it is not
known how bad their injuries are.
The Misses Agnes and Crescen-
tia who wer" also in the auto were
quite severely injured.
Mr.. and Howard Rice who was
an eye witness to this affair said
the occupants were struck by the
train backing upon them without
any lights and were all thrown out
right in front of him. He also
said that the train was moving
quite swiftly.

NORTH DAKOTA PROSPEROUS

The remarkable prosperity Of
the state of North DaKo.a is in
dicated in many ways among
them by the volumns Of its banA
deposits. According to the Of
fetal statements when the returns
were made under the last call
from the federal treasury depart
ment, the bank deposits of the
state now reach the total of Si25,
il2, 285.03. This is practically
100000 for every man, woman
and child in the state. In no
other state in the Union is the
wealth per capita so great as in
North Dakota, and in only few
cases are the bank deposits so
large. Almost all Of this i'm
mense sum is the direct product
of the farms of North Dakota, and
a very large proportion Of it is
now owned by the farmers of tho
state, who have become the de-
positors of large sums. The
banks rejort loans and discounts
of S1O0,O0O.O0O in round numbers
which is very satisfactory show
ing, as it indicates that the money
of the people of North Dakota is
in actual use in productive way,
and is not piled up in bank vaults
to add nothing to the progress and
and development of the state.

ments. The members of an en-
tire company in New York or
Chicago may live in New York or
blocks of their armory, whereas in
a state like North Dakota many
of the members are farm boys
who live great distances from
each other, and from their armory
Nevertheless the response from
the governor Of North Dakota was
as ready as that from the COVER
nor of any other state when the
call for troops came. Only two
things prevented the assembling
of North Dakota troops at Fort
Lincoln practically by the next
train after the call was issued.
One of those was the need for
time for the railroads to make
their transportation arrangements
and the other was the fact that
most of the equipment of the re-
giment was at the camp grounds
at Devils Lake, where it is used
every summer. The work Of re-
moving this equipment has re-
CURED time and the various
companies were kept in the mean
time in their home towns until
the change could be affected. The
North Dakota regiment made a
highly creditable record in the
Philippines and there is evry
reason to believe that it will again
acquit itself most honorably.

the TASK AHEAD IN MEXICO

III we are 10 nave war with Mex
leo as now seems inevitable, fam
lilies and friends of the guard
men, who will be called upon to
supply, the bulk of the American
fighting forces, may find consola-
ton in the apparent certainty that
there is slight prospect of many
real, pitched battles between the
opposing forces.
The Mexicans may give battle
once or twice. After that the
fighting is likely to degenerate in
to guerrilla warfare, sniping and
the raiding OF outposts. How
large a number of men Carranza
might be able to assemble nomin-
ally under arms is not important.
He could not keep them supplied in
munitions and food. A blockade
of Mexican ports would promptly
make impossible the maintenance
of supplies for the army. Mexico
cannot supply these things in SUI
ficient quantities and Mexican fin
ances are in such bad shape that
payment could not be made for
supplies. even if they could be OBJ
tanned elsewhere.
Then. again, CarranZa has no
amy worthy of the name. 1t is
composed of mere groups and
bands, small clans and raw levies.
One fight would likely drive the
lot to the hills and break up what
ever passes for a Mexican army
AS soon as CarranZa has used up
the supply of ammunition which
he has been allowed to obtain thru
the kindness of President Wilson
his lorces will be compelled TO
hunt cover in the hills and con-
duct their guerilla warfare.
This does not mean a speedy
ending of the Mexican trouble
The regulars and guardsmen will
have plenty of work to do after
the Mexican troops have been de-
feated. They will have the tasks
before them that the United States
armies of occupation had in Cuba,
the Philippines and Porto Rico
Order must be restored. The
poems must be permitted to return
to their fields. the miners to then
mines and the ranchers to their
plantations. Cities and towns
will have to be put in sanitary
conditions. Schools must be
established and. in time, elections
held and the way pointed out for
the establishment of a sane and
and stable government in Mexico
It will be the duty of the American
troops to- teach the MeXicans how
to employ their vast resources.
All this will take time. The
American army was brought out
of Cuba too soon and was compel
ed to return for couple of years.
The Emitted States has, moral obi
CATION in Mexico. Our forces
should be kept there until our
Officials are convinced beyond
question that the republic can
stand on it's own feet and control
its own dcstinies. In a national
sense, the Mexicans are as little
children. 1t will take time for
them to grow up and their growth
will have to be watched by the
soldiers of this nation. The task
will be long and tircsome, but the
dangers of it will likely be re-
moved very early in the game.

This life is full of snares and
