To The Finish

Those who know John Frame of
Grafton, candidate for the Republican
nomination for Governor, known we'll
that he is in the race to the finish.
There vas some talk, in the early
campaign, Of either Mr.. Frame or Mr..
Burdick retiring from the race, but up
to the present writing there has been
nothing to indicate q withdrawal of
either candidate, although in the best
interest of the party harmony it seems
desirable that this necessary to unite
the voters and a stronger front to the
enemy could then he put up.
Mr., FRAMES record as a statesman,
as a private citizen and as a soldier,
leaves no doubt in the minds of the
voters now that his shat is the ring"
it will remain there until the final
count of noses is made. His legisla-

err of the pioneers was called to pass
over the Great Divide when John A.
Nybo passed away at st. Johns hos
pital in Fargo. His death was caused
from complications resulting from an
operation for gall stones.
Mr.. Nybo was born in Norway,
e%migrated to Benson, Mimi, when a
young man. He came to Lund, N. D.,
in the early eighties, where he has
since resided, excepting periods spent
looking after his land interests at
Vanguard, Sask., Canada. Mrs. Nybo
died in 1893 and their only son a year
later. Mr.. Nybo lived to be 60 years
and 9 months.
There lives to mour his death an
only daughter, Mrs. Edwin johnson,
who resides at the old home, three
brothers, lone, M. Nybo, of Miles
City, Montana, being present at the
funeral numerous other relatives and
friends who have the sympathy of the
community in their bereavement. In
the hour of sorrow it is a consolation
to know that the one called was pre-
pared to go. Mr.. Nybo had several
times expressed that he was ready,
should his summons come at this time.

Womans' Club Holds Annual Meeting

At their annual business meeting
held last Thursday in the City Hall,
the Woman's Club closed a very pleas
ant and successful year. Besides their
regular meetings they have held two
guest day meetings and one evening
party at which they entertained their
husbands and friends. The members
also spent a very enjoyable evening
at the Joslyn home when the Minerva
Club entertained them. The Minerals
a previously challenged them to a
debated "Resolved that the United
States shall prepare for war;" Mrs.
Kelsey Haviland of the Minerva Club
lea out on the affirmative side, while
Mrs. Gumb of the Woman's Club was
leader OF the negative side. At the
conclusion of the debate dainty re.
freshments were served which the COM
mlttee had thoughtfully arranged in the
Woman's Club colors "pink and
white" and all present we're presented
"isn d PINK rose, thos nrOlonglng the
memory of a pleasant evening.
Much work of interest to the com.
munity has also been accomplished,
both directly by the club and through
the various COMMITTEES. The Lecture
Course proved to be a g and
many will be delighted to hear that
the Club has made arrangements for a
still better our for the coming
winter.
Many people have showed apprecia.
ton to the Club for putting on a Short
Course, SO that the members feel we'll
repaid for their work in that line.
The Sunshine Committee has been
active and aside from sending flowers
to the sick have collected and made

tive experience, his political acumen,
his unquestioned integrity, and above
all, his sound judgement on the needs
of North Dakota as q state, happily
6t him for the position to which he
aspires.
Mr.. Frame was not seeking the Of
flee of Governor, until, upon the ur-
gent request Of his many friends and
Republican leaders in the State, he
decided that if the people desired his
service and his partly felt that he al
the man for the place he had no moral
right to refuse to go before the peo-
pie seeking the Republican nomina-
ton.
Once in the fight John Frame knows
no looking backward. 1t is the same
determination of character, this same
willingness to accept a responsibility
and to go through with that has made
him a successful mar in private and
public life. tt seems good advice to
the Republican Party of North Dakota
just 10Y to pin its faith to a fighter
and q man who will do his part to
lead to victory. John FRAMES hat is
in the ring until the primaries are over
and it looks now as if he would be the
primaries are over and it looks now
as if he would be a party leader. In
such case, there can be no doubt of
part victory in November and of the
elimination of the trotting "organiza-
tion," hoisted upon an inspecting
public by the walking delegates from
without our borders.

The Library, which is kept in the
City Hall, is open to the public every
Saturday afternoon from two to five.
Anybody may obtain books by paying
the membership fee of twenty-five cents
q year. The Library Committee is at
present arranging to purchase S25. 90
worth of new books and has just re-
ceived a new travelling library.
The educational Committee was in
auencial in arranging for the oratori-
cal contest which was held recently in
the Town Hall and offered prizes for
the same to the amount Of $500.
The Civic Committee is still carry
ing on its good work of which nearly
everyone is familiar. They have
planned for a clean campaign to be
carried on throughout the summer.
Fly traps and paper burners have been
placed in the alleys and on the streets.
They expect to plant an avenue OF
trees to the cemetery next spring and
have ordered one hundred trees and
shrubs from the state department of
forestry for that purpose. They are
also grateful to the City Council for
contributing SIS. 90 for civic work.
1t will be readily be seen from this
summary of the years work, that the
motive of the club is not a selfish one,
since they r endeavoring to do their
mite toward making our little city q
more beautiful and better place in
which to live.
The Club is anticipating one more
time as soon a. the weather is settled
when they will hold their annual
picnic.
At the meeting last Thursday, the
the following officers we're elected.

SCHOOL NOTES

The epidemic came at q bad time of
the year as far as work is concerned.
We were sorry to miss the time just
now at the closing up time. We hope
no further ravages will be made among
our ranks. Some of the grades look
small.
The Glee Club Concert will be given
this Friday evening. We hope our
patrons will not be too much afraid
of the measles to turn out. There will
be no danger of catching them there.
Come and hear something good.
Ruth Bowen, our representative at
the state declamatory contest, re-
turned on Monday evening. We hear
that she came pretty close to entering
the finals having taken fourth place.
We are proud of that fact when we
consider that the other twenty five con-
testants had nearly all been there be-
fore. Congratulations are in order.
We are sorry that not more we're
present to witness the exciting ball
game between Hope and Cooperstown
last Saturday afternoon. There oc-
Cured n of those unusual ninth
inning rallies which pulled our boys
out of an apparent defeat and gave
them a glorious victory with a score
of 5 to 4. The tie will be played off at
Cooperstown on June Bird. We wish
it could be played here.
Reviews are in order now the upper
grade pupils. Make the best of them
for they often pull one out of seeming
failure. No one is absolutely sure of
defeat until he has put forth his best
efforts.
Miss Bridston spent Tuesday at
Casselton. She was called back on
account of the reopening of school.
Miss Hodgson spent a few days of
her forced vacation at her home in
Devils Lake. She returned on Tues
NoJ CVCLlluS.
There will be on school on Memorial
Day, next Tuesday. All children are
urged to join in the parade. We be-
lleve conveyances will be furnished
for taking them to the cemetery. Let
the children get an inspiration which
is bound to develop patriotism.
There was a slight error among the
names of those pupils receiving blue
cards in the second grade last month.
They were Gail Greenwood, Alvin
Herdle, Agnes Eckart, Eunice Smith
and George Taplin.
Grace Gray, VIM. Hanley and Lloyd
Sussex captured the coveted blue card
IN the High School last month. We are
pleased to see the number growing.
Remember the Glee Club concert on
Friday evening of this week.

priced players and with extras, cam
eramen, property men, all drawing
salaries and fattening the overhead
upon that picture 1t costs about
thirty per cent. to market a feature
In addition to the producing cost
which Is never as low as $4,000 for
good production with first class
players. In view OF this cost the au-
thor receiving ten per cent. of the
profits would earn less money than
he does on the basis of the present
plan, and as many features actually
lose money, on such pictures he
would get nothing for his wo. k. 1t
strikes me that $3,500 is an exces-
sive price for the idea for one fea.
ture picture. We have frequently paid
high prices for the picture rights to
some well-known book or play, but in
those instances we were also buying
the publicity which naturally is a
part of such work through its popu-
larity with many persons.
1T is stated that the Authors
League now numbers 1900 members,
and that 1t is expected by the end
OF the year there will be 5000, which
number is supposed to include practi-
cally all the scenario writer's. The
motion picture business has reared
up its own school of dramatists, and
| fail to see where the business would
have to be dependent upon any au-
thor's association. There neither is
nor can be any monopoly Of writing
talent--that is field of human en-
deavor that is open to any one. The
famous writer frequently falls down
when he writes for the screen, for
the requirements Of the art differ
from those of the stage, the short
story or the novel.
FINALLY, let me reassure the Au-
thor's League as to the fabulous pro.
fits in the motion picture business.

The latest attempt TO pilfer from

Of some OF the vast profits which y IS
nopularly supposed to be getting was
indicated in the New York papers Oh

which winston Churchill is the presi-
dent and Theodore Roosevelt the
yice-president, is considering the ad-
visibility OF joining the American
Federation OF Labor with the express
purpose OF bringing the moving pic

the author of the story, idea or seem
ario from which the picture is made
Thompson Buchanan, secretary or the
Executive Committee, is reported 10
have said that any picture which nets
the producer or distributor $4,000,
should pay the author at least $500
One OF the arguments advanced Is
that IAN author gets from $500 to
81 500 for an idea or scenario which
costs the producer not more than Sl5.-
600 to prepare for use and from which
he reaps not less than s35,000."
AS a lever for their arguments the
disgruntled scribes plan to make use
Of the cameramen and mechanicians
who are now afiiliating with the Am
erican Federation of Labor. Thus If
the picture manufacturer does not ac-
cede to their terms they expect to
call out their fellow union men-thc

Mr.. ]. A. Berst, vice-president and
general manager of Pathe, when the
above statements were called to his
attention, refused to be alarmed.
"In the tirst place. he said, "the
authors argument rests upon false
premise. They take no account Of
the picture which does not pay it's
way and which represents loss and
not profit. We would be only too
glad to buy at a high price any and
