HELP OUT THE FAIR.

The Grand Forks Fair, which open-
ed informally last night and which is
now In full swing, is more than q To-
enterprise. It. is necessary that
exhibitions be held in some par
ticular place, and as this fair Is the d.
rect outgrowth Of Grand Forks initi-
alive and enterprise, it Is naturally
located at Grand Forks. But it has
been planned for the benefit and en-
tertainment of the people of a great
district. 1t has grown in size and ap-
probation because 1t has met the
needs Of its territory, and the people
of the territory have responded.
But, while the fair is more than a
local enterprise, it is that as we'll,
Like any other business enterprise II
is a direct benefit to every resident of
the city. and the benefits accruine are
not confined to the one week of the
fair, but extend through the year.
1t Is obviously the part of good bus
mess and good craftsmanship for the
people of the city of Grand Forks to
give their cordial and hearty support
to the fair during the five days when
their appreciation of it can be shown
IN a conclusive When ev.
erything has been done that can he

pie from a distance, and when those
from a distance have responded as
they have lone in the past, and as
we are satisfied they will respond this

fair depends on the support which il
received from its local community.

LITTLE

Little girls are mighty nice,
Take 'em any way they come,
Ihey are always worth their price,
Life without 'em would be glum:
Run earth's lists of treasurers
through.
Pile EN- high until they fall,
Gold an costly jewels, too,
Little girls are best of all.
Nothing equals 'em on earth!
I'm an old man an 1 know,
Any little girl is worth
More than all the gold below:
Eyes o. blue or brown or gray. w
Raven hair or golden curls,
There's no Joy on earth today
Quite so fine as little girls.
Pudgy nose or freckled face,
Fairy-like or plain to see,
God has surely blessed the place
Where q little girl may be;
They're the jewels of His crown
Dropped to earth from heaven
Like angel souls sent down
To remind us of His love.
God has made some lovely thine-
Roses red an skies o. blue.
Trees an babbling silver springs,
Gardens glistenin' with dew
But take every gift to man,
Big an little. great an small,
Judge It on it's merits, an
Little girls are best Of all!

be threshed out at a more appropri-
ate time and place.
That Governor Frazier did not act
in accordance with this obviously cor
Get principle, but chose rather to lug
into his address c~ontroverted political
questions, Is not strange to those who
know him and who are familiar with
his methods. Those who had approx

as a matter Of course, that he would
confine his remarks to subjects which

Inundated by the insult to the people

thought to convey q rebuke to the

There are some who knew what to
expect, and were pleased with what
they received. The Socialist we ,kly of
Crookston, for instance, voices the
sentiments of this little group in ar
ticies in which the governor Of North
Dakota is lauded. and in which the
policy for which he stands is further
exemplified by the singing out OF a
prominent Crookston business man for
attack. for no apparent reason other
than that he did not approve of the
Frazier address. To a Socialist pape
that is sufficient to warrant the de-
mand h a the offender be hanged,
drawn and quartered. The Crookston
Press has n good feature. It is open
n above board in its Socialism. It's
principles are abominable and it's pol
1c1es mischtevous. But even SO they
are infinitely to be preferred to the
gum shoe methods which are occa-
sionally found. which prompt the in
d1vldual to say good Lord" or good
devil" according to the society of the
moment, and to yield equal honor to
the red flag Of anarchy and the Stars
