REV. w. M. WRIGHT has been making
in front of his residence on
Ramsay street, by way of removing
brush, dead shrubbery, etc. More work
in the shape of grading and side walk
building would render that one of the
most attractive portions of the town.

TIE bridge across the Pembina river
gota bad shaking up this spring. Its
joints are about being braced
up for few months work, but they will
never endure the racket of another high
water. A new bridge, long one and
strong one, is a public necessity--one
that will be above ard superior to sprin,
tide.
THIS week witnessed the destruction
of the old building formerly uscsl as
postoiiice and residence by Mr.. Cavilcer.
i was built in the year 1864, and having
served It's d;ty and gencration, has to
submit to the destroyer. In the Oil
front door lisa bullet hole, the relic OF Il
terrible tragedy which occurred some
five years ago, when detective and a
desperate intercllangcd mutually fatal
shots, both expiring in a few minutes.
SOME of our citizens by their neglect to
clear up their back yards and by-placcs
are disregarling the INDUCTION Of our ci y
fathers not to speak of the higher obliga-
lions imposed by the laws Of health and
comfort. Let all dangerous or offensive
rubbish be removed or destroyed or let
offenders be fined. Otherwise the town
ordinance should be publicly proclaimed
! dead letter.
THE game laws of Dakota are very
stringent. They do net allow elk, deer,
sheep or antelope to be killed
between the first day of January and
of each year. Prairie chickens
Or grouse are not allowed to be killed be-
tween the first day of January and
August in each year. Justices of the
peace, sheriifs, constables, etc., are
required to make arrests for the violation
of this law and heavy fines are pro-
vided.
KITE FLYING among the boys is COM
ing into vogue. An amusing instance
occurred Wednesday evening in con-
nection with kite that was carce,ing
far above the town. Mack Cavilecr
thought lie would try his skill in the
attempt to put hole through it with his
rife. Taking steady aim when the
kite was still he fired, and Immediately
the kite like a thing of life began to toss
and wheel, finally making it's way to the
ground, the ball having severed the
string holding the tail.
THE Salem Pioneer Register proposes
10 start daily paper if its patrons will
come down with the necessary patron
age. In our opinion it is nota wise move
10 start daily paper unless the business
Of the town will warrant the undertaking
without an appeal to the generosity of
The people. There is ssome difference be-
;ween starting paper and establishing
l paper as some ambitious fellows have
'ound out to their cost We know of
half dozen daily papers that wish they
nad never been born.
We regret to announce the death
IF Mr.. Thomas Baldwin. which Oc-
