NORTH DAKOTA BOOMING SEVERAL OF ITS CITIZENS ARE IN ST. PAUL Lively Scramble Among the Republicans for All the Federal Plums in Sight-Senator Hansbrough and Congressman Johnson at Loggerheads. North Dakotans were especially in evidence around the hotels yesterday. For the most part those in town yesterday were merchants, who had come down to do their spring buying, with a politician sprinkled in here and there. Thomas B. Edison, of Larimore, a nephew of "The Wizard," was at the Merchants yesterday. Mr. Edison is one of the best known bankers and successful farmers in the Dakotas. Back in the early '80s Mr. Edison bought a large farm on the head waters of the Turtle, and the story goes that the first year he cut 350 tons of hay and sold it for $10 per ton in the stack. Mr. Edison said yesterday that he was thinking of having a spur track laid across his farm, and building an elevator on the premises. Of late years his operations have been confined to wheat raising, but in the early years of his residence in Dakota he raised oats. One year he harvested 102 bushels to the acre and sold the whole crop for over forty cents per bushel on the farm. Mr. Edison is on his way to Washington, D. C., where he will look up the appointment of a receiver for the First National bank of Larimore, which closed its doors ten days ago. Richard Daly, of Devil's Lake, was a guest at the Merchants' yesterday. Mr. Daly was the Republican nominee for sheriff of Ramsey county last fall. He is now in the grain business. Previous to his removal to the city of Devils' Lake he was the owner of one of the finest farms in the county. There is quite a scramble among the Republican politicians of North Dakota for federal positions. The recent appointment by President McKinley of John Haggard as United States marshal has simmered the contest down to the land office places. It is generally understood among North Dakota Republicans that Harry Baird, of Devil's Lake, is to be named for the position as register of the land office. Mr. Baird has been in Minneapolis for several days, and it is understood that Senator Hansborough has practically decided upon Mr. Baird for the place. Senator Roach being of the opposite persuasion he will have no voice in the selection of any of the federal positions. Congressman Johnson has disagreed in many instances with Senator Hansborough on federal as well as recommendations for consular appointees. A prominent North Dakota man said yesterday that it was the general understanding among politicians of the state that Senator Hansborough's recommendation would receive favorable consideration at the hands of the president whether Mr. Johnson indorsed the appointment or not.

NORTH DAKOTA BANKS, Controller Dawes 1x Giving Them Special Attention. Washington-It is said at the office of the controller of the currency that no official information has been received of the arrest of the Streeters. president and cashier of the defunct First National Bank of Larimore, N. D. It is said that Special Examiner McDenald, who was recently sent to North Dakota to examine the condition of the failed national banks in that state, has probably concluded his examination of the two banks in Grand Forks and of the bank at Fargo. Up to date no report has been received from him as to the condition of these banks, but one will probably be received in a few days. Controller Dawes is at present out of the city, but it is probable that he will decide whether to appoint receivers for these banks upon his return. A preliminary report of the trust under his charge has been received from Receiver Kneeshaw, of the First National Bank of Pembina. It is probable that the first dividend will shortly be declared.

THE comptroller of the currency has received the statement of the condition of the twenty-five national banks in North Dakota at the close of business February 15. This is one less bank than was doing business in December, the First National bank of Larimore having been placed in the hands a a receiver since that time. A comparison with the December report shows that the banks have materially deceased their individual deposits, loans and discounts and average reserve, while a slight gain is shown in the gold holdings. The individual deposits in the last report were $5,848,112, against $5,493,911 in the current report, while the loans and discounts have fallen from $4,321,690 in December to 84,297,239. The average reserve held by the banks has also been reduced from 39.88 per cent to 32.46 per cent. The present holdings of gold coin are $227,390, an increase of more than $5,000.
