Thousands of People Are Here This
Week to Take Part in Greatest
Convention of Its Kind Ever Held
In State.
ERA TUESDAY.

With beautiful weather, and the city beautifully decorated, the
city of Devils Lake is thronging with people from all over the
state this week, and many from outside of the state, including
many noted speakers, who are holding one Of the mos: important
conventions ever held in the state. It is the state Sunday School
Convention.
They came in special trains and by automobiles, and are one of
the most enthusiastic punches that one could imagine, and they are
tce automobiles from WiListon, Minot, Bismarck, jamestown,
Grand Forks, Fargo, and many other parts of the state.
On Monday, preceding the regular Sunday School Convention,
there was a Purity convention with a regular program both after
noon and evening, and a large number were in attendance. There
were many important speakers on this program, including Prof.
I. ". Shannon, of Delaware, Ohio, and Miss Lillian Topping Of
Fargo.
The regular Sunday School convention opened at 8 a. m, and
from that time on until the close of the session in the Grand Opera
house, was most interesting and the building was packed.
Tuesday at 400 o'clock the parade was formed and this was ore
were represented in a body and marched with banners floating to
the breeze. There was over a hundred autos beautifully decorated
and carrying loads of Sunday School children. 1t was the largest
parade of its kind ever held in the city, and was a wonder to many
spectators. The moving picture artist was on the job and took
pictures of the complete parade and in the near future these pic
lures will be exhibited here and at the Chautauqua grounds and
later they will be shown all over the country, which will be the
means OF bringing Devils Lake into the l%imeight more than any
other one thing. While it was quite a task to accommodate sever
al hundreds Of people from the outside in our city, the local COM
|mittees worked overtime and we believe that all who have been
home feeling that they have not had a most pleasant and profta-
BILE time. Wednesday the convention spent a part of their time
at the Chautauqua grounds and in the evening the session was
held in the big auditorium there.
1t has been a great convention-probably the biggest and best
ever held in the state and while we would be pleased to give the
entire program, it is impossible, as the convention is on as we go
press, and we are unable to give the program in detail.

WILSON NOT STRONG m WEST

~
st. Louis. June 13.-Western and North
ern delegations in this Democratic gath
ering do not share the feeling of op:i-
mism that obtains among their brethren
from the south.
The Southern delegates are a happy
go-lucky lot, and act like men who are
out for a holiday and confident of the
future.
Harrisd BY Doubt
Their states are certain to go for the
Democratic ticket, and accordingly they
are not burdened with anxieties on this
score.
On the other hand. the delegates from
the North and West, hailing from Sec
tions where the real battle will be-
fought, are harried by doubts and un-
|certainties. r
The probable union of the two Repuh-
1ican factions surprised and disappoint-
ed them, n speaking privately they ex-
press grave doubts whether Mr.. Wilson
can be reelected.
Some Leaders Ants.

country and with the great rank and
file of his party. but among the leaders

General complaint is made that he has
not played the game as politicians would
have it played.
The delegates will do their share in
putting through the perfunctory job in
St. Louis, but when that task is COM
pleted they will return to their labors
without the enthusiasm that is needed
in a successful fight.

over the "get-together movement"

In the Middle West, the Democrats in

success.
Delegations. from The Pacific. coast al
ready have given up the fight. So far
as the East is concerned, New England
New York, and New Jersey are placed in
the Republican column almost by man
fimous consent.
Admissions are made by Democrats
that the nomination Of Fairbanks as the
Republican vice presidential candidate
gives that ticket a fighting chance in the
border states such as Kentucky and Ten.

That Hughes is feared by the leaders
is indicated in many ways.
Down in Washington, the little GROUP

the boys in St. Louis. who will be in the
trenches this fall, are full of misgivings
