burning some Of the rafters and smok-

The loss to the National Cleaners

The A. A. Robinson Elevator Co.
received another car of seed millet
this week, making four carloads of
this particular seed that have shipped
into Minot this spring. Speaking of
seed, Mr.. Robinson informs the indie
pendent that in all they have received
19 cars of grass and field seeds at
Mlnot, Logan and Surrey already this
season. The seed business this sea-
sen has been unprecedented. The
Valker-Christenson Co. have done an
enormous business in field and garden
seeds having enjoyed the largest
years business in their history. It
is to be hoped that this year will
mark new era in the development of
the seed growing business in North
Dakota. There is absolutely no rea-
son why this section should not grow

seeds, found anywhere in the United

The Minot fire department was on

Connection was made with the n.y.

and two other hydrants were used.

CHOOSING OUR NEXT PRESIDENT

CHOOSING OUR NEXT PRESIDENT
The National Republican convention
will be held at Chicago next week.
where in all probability the next pres.
dent of the United States will be
nominated. The candidates have stat.
ed their cases to the people. Never
before has so much publicity been CIV
en- in any campaign. The candidates
have even been compelled to bare
their expense accounts. For instance
it is now known that more than q
million dollars was raised for the
Wood campaign. Lowden spent half
a million of his own money. John
sons campaign cost something like
100000. Even the names of the con-
tributors were given.
There will be merry old time down
at Chicago. Wood will enter the con-
yention with more delegates pledg-
ed to- his support than any other can
didate, but no candidate will have a
majority of votes on the first ballot.
Lowden and Johnson both have strong
support. johnson has made spectac-
ular campaign, winning the presiden-
tiaLp primaries in more states than
any other candidate, but it is said
that the delegates pledged to him
are in duty bound to stick with him
only on the first ballot. 1t is certain
that great many of them will 60 to
some other candidate after the first
ballot.
Wilsonian democrats will undou5t-
eddy be in control of the National
Democratic convention in San Fran
cisco. Instructions have been given
to eliminate William Jennings Bryan
early in the convention. The Will
sonians are preparing to give the
Commoner both barrels in quick sue
cession, one for his opposition to the
League of Nations and the other be-
cause he desires to stir up the whis
key fight. The Democrats consider
that John Barleyccrn is not Only dead
but say that his obsequies have been
held and they want to led the dead
rest in peace. Bryan figures that the
undertaken didn't do very good job
and he wants to unearth the remains
and take another long last look on
the departed. The presidents SON.
in-law, McAdoo, is quite likely to be
nominated.

THE PARKS AND OUR CEMETERY

THE PARKS AND OUR CEMETERY
Minot now has without question the
most beautiful parks in the state and
much credit is due to the able work of
our park superintendent, Will 0. Door
little. Visitors in the city marvel at
the work that has been done under
the guidance Of Mr.. Doolittle. He has
shown excellent judgment in planting
only such trees and shrubbery as will
thrive in this climate. The parks are
carefully tended, the grassy plots be-
ing kept in perfect condition.
The city should now devote its at
tention to Rose Hill cemetery. The City
of the Dead should be given some at
tention. There are no trees to speak
of in the cemetery. It is almost de-
void of shrubbery. The grass receives
but little attention. Some of the
graves are looked after, but most Of
them show woeful lack of attention.
of course, after one is dead, he's dead
and he will probably sleep just as
peacefully with ragweeds thriving
above him, but it is not very con-
soling thought to the living to think
that some day they too may be laid to
rest in neglected cemetery.
The Independent does not blame
anyone in particular for this condition.
The writer is willing to take just as
much blame as any other citizen of Mi
not, but we do want to say that we
would like to do our part towards max
ing Rose Hill cemetery beautiful. Our
park superintendent undoubtedly has
his hands full, but he's a live wire and
we believe that he could be induced to
formulate plans that within a few
years would result in Transforming
this spot into one Of rare beauty.

At this the members of the Police
Band pulled out their police whistles
and blew frantically. The other po-
licemen present also blew their whis-
ties.
When, the whistling ceased Hugo
continued:

At that, Hugo's friend, "Honest John

eventually Hugo sat down.

= These are two Of the interesting
statements made by Hylan and Hugo
at three police dinners last Saturday
night IN this city which are occasionine
considerable discussion among politi-
cans. The Democrats are wondering if
Hylan has lined up with Hugo to de-
liver whatever Tammany votes he has
at his command should Hugo succeed
IN getting the Republican nomination
for Governor. And Republicans are
wondering what could have induced the
Mayor to line up, if he has lined up
behind Hugo. They can't quite believe
that the, ties of friendship can be
stronger than those of politics.
Hugo spoke at all three dinners q:yen
