CITY BUSINESS, SOME
CONTRACTS ARE LET

At the regular meeting of the City
Council, Monday evening, numerous
items Of city business were taken
care of. Arrangements were made
with the Great Northern to secure
cinders for use at crossings. E. M.
Pray, having made the lowest bid,
was given the contract for a small
addition to the Northside hydrant
house. A petition bearing three sig
natures asking that certain districts
be taken out of the fire district was
referred to the clerk to take up with
the underwriters. Representatives
of the three banks of the city ap-
peared before the council to consider
the manner of handling city war
rants, and explain the exigencies of
the present money market. A plan
for dealing with the situation was
outlined by Clerk Dowell which prov
ed satisfactory to the council and to
the banks.
Bids were opened for the printing
of 5000 water department blanks,
according to specifications. The bids
were: The Promoter, $4,000; The
Herald, Salts. The work was
awarded to the Herald.
The Wolf Point Promoter was des-
ignated as the paper in which city
legals will be published for the year
ending May 26, 1921, the Promoter
having voluntarily offered to publish
such legals at the same rates as the
Herald, which has, by agreement
with the first council, published the
legals since the town was organized
at one-third the rate allowed by law
for the first insertion, or so cents per
folio, and so cents for each subse-
quent insertion, and the proceedings
Of the council free of cost.
Fire Chief Smith was authorized |
to expend sum not exceeding $50 I
FOR the improvement Of the fire
alarm system of the city.

BUREAU ARRANCES
FARMERS PICNICS
WIDE AWAKE AND DRY FORK
LEAD OFF-SPORTS, SPEAK
ING AND GOOD TIME
IF. J. Chase, County AGENT

IF. j. Chase, County AGENT
The County Farm Bureau has
formed definite plans for some real
recreational picnics for the farmers
of the county during the months of
June and July.
The war is over now, and after
three years Of drouth and two years
Of war the farmers and their families
are certainly entitled to get together
for good time.
Plans are laid to hold community
picnics in - different localities in
the county. A picnic cannot be held
in every community, as much as it
would be desired, so the various
communities will unite. According
to a tentative schedule the dates
have been named for the various
places and are as follows;
June Dates
June a. Wide Awake and Dry
Fork Farmers Club.
June Is. Waska and Pershing
communities.
June 16. Fairview, Seips and
Cusker Communities.
June II. Mineral Bench.
June 18. Brocl1ton.
These defs&te dates have been set
for the west end Of the county and
tentative dates for points in the east
part of the county are July II to II,
inclusive; these places will be an
nounced later
Good Programs
In all probability, James Griffin,
an old time farmer from Chinook,
will be engaged for these picnics.
His subjects will be Farm Loans and
Farm Bureau. In addition, the var
ious towns of the county will furnish
some sort of entertainment, each
community viii furnish its own
sports and amusements, there being
games for all, potato races, fat mans
jumping contests, and maiden ladies'
boxing bouts will be part Of the
sports. Every farmer and his fam
ly should attend one Of these pic
MICS; bring your lunch and come pre-
pared to have your one big day of
he year.

WHO'S WHO IN THE
POLITICAL RACES
PRESIDENTIAL POLL IN EVERY
STATE SHOWS CHOICE OF
THE VOTERS

According to the latest figures
published, 1,503,644 voters from ev-
cry state in the Union have express
ed their first and second choice pref
erence for president.
The Literary Digest's great presi-
Dental poll is the authority for the
figures mentioned. This magazine
distributed millions of ballots under
the fairest conditions possible to de-
wise. Those who vote are instructed
not to sign their names, but to des-
ignate their first and second choice
in whatever party they expect to sup
port this year, and to indicate their
state and the party with which they
voted in the last presidential cleo
ton. Among the Democrats, former
Secretary VIM. G. McAdoo is far in
the lead Of all others. Among the
Republican candidates, Leonard
Wood, Hiram johnson and Herbert
Hoover are fairly well punched and
well ahead of other contenders.
Admitting the claim of the Digest
that the ballots were evenly and i'm
partially distributed, and are being
canvassed, the big straw
vote ought to be fair indication of
the sentiments of the voters. But it
is impossible to more than speculate
on what conventions will do. 1t may
