Worry and Concern. e.,

NEW YORK. June 1i.-within the
next several days Charles Evans
Hughes Ia going to mike several hun
dred bitter enemies and one friend,
whose affection will endure until death
do us part"
That friend will be the real estate
man in whose particular summer col
ony the candidate elects to live this
summer.
The men OF the dollar down and n
dollar week for life" fraternity are
on the ground in force. The pulling
OF wires Is tremendous. Every friend
Hughes ever had is being approached
to urge the candidate to select the sum-
mer colony of the approacher for his
summer home.
They come from Long Island. Maine,
the Adirondacks. New Jersey, and else
where. Their name Is legion, their
persistence wonderful and their disap-
pointmcnt Is bound to be crushing.

GRAND OPENING
VAUDEVILLE SEASON

Manager Wolf Of the Grand opened
his vaudeville season yesterday in q
most suspicious manner and the warm
weather did not deter big crowds
from witnessing the splendid bill.
The Grand has been garnished with
new scenery throughout, also a splen.
did new ad curtain.
The show, while not as heavy as
some of the bills played, is real
good one. Gerome and Sylvester, ac-
robats, are exceptionally good and get
over some wonderful stunts that got
a big hand. Ed. Clark, in his ven
triloquist act, has one of the best acts
of its kind ever seen here and con-
vulsed the house with his fun and
antics.
Davenport, the Swedish dialect
comedian, took well. Leona Broueh.
ton, in a pianologue act, went over
big and finishing in team number
was one of the hits of the show. No
doubt today will be a banner one, as
there is big added feature in the
sensational feature film, 1.-THE Hearts
Of Men," The orchestra, under the
direction Of Clifford Reckow, was the
recipient of much comment, AZ the
overtures played took the house by
storm.

Many young men from states furth.

permanent positions on North Dakota
farms with the federal labor agent,
T. L. Stanley, who is cooperating
with the state department of agricul-
ture and labor in an endeavor to help
solve the farm labor problem.
Those who are looking for reliable
help" says Mr.. Stanley, "will no
doubt find this department an aid in
putting them in touch with this east
ern labor, which is of the most reli-
able kind.
There still continues to be big
demand for female labor throughout
the state. The department is placing
men each day in places where they

Help Spread the Glad News.
"Gentlemen:
lowing to unusual river conditions,
the ferry service at this place has
been irregular during the past two
weeks. To correct this condition, the
Bismarck Commercial club has taken
over the power ferry, and it can offer
henceforth absolute service at this
point both day and night.
"The publicity which has been Civ.
en- the lack of service rendered here
recently has been very damaging tc
the Red Trail, and we trust that you
will assist us in spreading the good
news that there will be no further
difficulties in the future. Two first
class ferries will be at the disposal Of
the public at all times; a standard fec
of fifty cents, from a. m. until II
p. m. and for one dollar from 10 p. m
until 7 a. m. will be charged; the ap
proaches will be placed in first-class
condition, and we will pledge our per
sonal word that the travelling public
will have no further complaint t.
make of the service at this point.
Assuring you that we appreciate
all that you have done in the past TO
the Red Trail, and that we will b.
doubly grateful for your cooperation
in this instance, we are,
yours very truly,

friends on both sides of the river, and
the result has been that not a single
car has crossed the Missouri since 10
o'clock last Saturday evening, when
the cable ferry was forced to suspend
operations by gigantic bar extend
ing $50 feet into the river. Mr.. Cos
card contemplating the sale of his
boat and his, departure from this field,
has not felt warranted in mourning
the expenditure of money and labor
which would be required to enable the
Bull Dog to make a landing on the
Mandan side.
Yesterday the Commercial club and
Mr. Gossard came to a definite under
standing, and this morning the ferry
will be taken over by the Commercial
club at a price which is reasonable.
The club has number of offers from
men who are capable of operating the
ferry and who are willing as we'll, to
invest some money in the proposition.
Whether the ferry is operated as a
Commercial club proposition, or as
private venture, under the direction
of the Commercial club, it is reason
ably certain that regular service will
be resumed within twenty-four hours,
or less.
Will Go to Pacific Coast.
Walter Gossard and his associate,
who have been engaged in the ferry
business here for years, have purchas-
ed the Nancy Hanks of Miles City,
the house-boat owned by the late
Capt. Grant Marsh, and it is their in
tention to install power in this craft
and to proceed in her to the Gulf of
Mexico, and, perhaps, via the Panama

RIVER FERRY
Bismarck Commercial Club Take
Option on Bull Dog;;' Op-
Grafton Starts Today.
WILL CHARGE NOMINAL
FEE TO CROSS MISSOURI

Beginning today barring further
disappointment, the Bismarck Com.
mercial club will assume charge of
the gasoline ferry at the river and
will become personally responsible
for good service over the Missouri, be.
tween Bismarck and Mandan.
The club took an option on the
ferry-boat Bull Dog, owned by Walter
Gossard and Emil Anderson, ten days
ago, and it has been continuously en-
gagged since that time in an effort to
make satisfactory arrangements for
its permanent and regular operation.
These efforts have been frustrated
to a certain extent by well-meaning
