high as $40 per day Out Of the thirteen
townships which have recently come into

The Crouch Trial.

DETROIT, March l2-Jackson special:
In the Crouch murder case Detective
Harris testified as to Holcomb admitting
owning s. callber revolver, and ths. he
lost it in the lake up north. When he
admitted this he was greatly agitated and
called for water. The witness and Fra.
ger, the defendants counsel, had to tell
about witness being tampered with.
The witness said Frazer was the one. He
thought Frazer called him liar. Sheriff
Winnee corroborated Harris statements.
They visited Lansing but could not find
wvere Holcomb bought his revolver. The
coroner and two jurymen at the inquest
swore that Holcomb swore he never had
3s caliber revolver. Nettle Snyder, .
servant, no hogs were killed at Hol-
combs for seven weeks previous to the
murder. This latter pertains to bloody
clothing.

ssEducatof,' Reasons.

MI: EDITOR: 1t Is everywhere conceded
that Jamestown's prospects for develop
ment into central and commanding
point were never brighter than at pres
cnt, and that her future as commercial
centre has more convincing assurance
than any other city in North Dakota
The extension Of commerce is possibly in
earlier demand than any other species OF
growth, but it has accessories OF devel-
opment which must speedily follow it, if
not JON IT, TO make the community all
that we would desire 1t to be. The en-
terprise Of our business men Is extend
ing jobbing trade through the valley,
and drawing to the city the support of
the surrounding country, and for greater
facility in this work it is building q
southern railway route TO provide
cheaper frcights and break the destruc-
i've power OF monopoly. Commercial
prosperity is nearly absolutely assured.
When the golden spike Of the river bank
route has been driven, and trains are
running regularly, this assurance will be
complete. Population will increase,
manufactures will find here profitable
location, and the demand OF outside
towns will need from our merchants
large wholesale supply.
But there Is another phase Of develop
ment which must be taken into consld-
Grafton in computing the results Of the
next few years growth. The financial
prosperity Of the town, whep considered
by men whom we desire to live among
| US, and whose life in the west is not de-
signed by them TO be temporary, loses
much of Its attractiveness when the sur
| roundlngs Of his family are not high IN
the educational, social anuS religious
scale That growing town which neg.
lects unwavering care to Its higher inter-
| ests OF civilization feels II ever after
ward in host Of ways 1t cannot be
said that jamestown has neglected these
! things; she has hardly had the opportun.
lty, and has always shown an extremely
commendable disposition to- aid in those
matters which look to the improvement
! Of society.
! In very short time great opportun-
| ity for the educational advancement Of
the city will have passed. Whether it is
taken or not 10 an event entirely depend.
ent upon the population Of the city it.
self. BY effort which all know was an
untiring conflict with competitive forces
from other cities, the Northern Pacific
presbytery located its university at
Jamestown. For this result bonus,
which, considering the value Of the in.
stitutlon, was small, was guaranteed, and
within three weeks must be raised. The
heat Of political contest and the pro
motion of commercial projects are alb.
sorbing much of the energy of the city at
present, 3ut one citizen, At least, cannot
bring himself to regard the location OF
this college in jamestown as Sc econdary
issue Of the spring campaign of develop.
ment, and would like to see steps taken
at )nce to secure the university.
Respectfully.
EDUC ATOE.
