"A meeting of school patrons b to
beheld this afternoon atthe school house
to CONSIDER the management of our school
for the ensuing year.
Manly Davisand Harry Pickett went
to Sanborn on Sunday last with four
horse team to take down the accumulat-
ed mail and few passengers.
The sundogs, so unusually distinct
sometimes of late are proven by some
of the weather-wise indicative Of cold
snaps, while others think they denote
simply heliocaninity.
-Sanborn Enterprise: The assignees
have competed the work Of inventory
on the stock Of William Holiday with
thisresult: Liabilities, 80, ,s95. .76; assets
$l3,2l5.9O. A good showing.
The Chicago Weekly News is all
meat, no wind or gush. It is content
to state facts, leaving to others the mo-
nopoly of verbose writing and tiresome
platitudes. This excellent paper and
the Courier for $3.50.
"A big fire at jamestown last week
clicked up'' the Dakota House and al
the property in that block facing the
railroad track. It was very tough FIRE
for the city as many of the best build
ings were included in the blaze.
-Messrs. Iver jacobson, Ole Serum
gard and Julius Stevens joined issues
and bought the quarter section formerly
owned by Engebret Gunderson, on Sec
ton 6, l48, 58, for consideration Of
81 100. The farm is one Of the best in
the Sheyenne valley and is heavily tin-
bered.
Portland Inter- Ocean: The Hope
Pioneer is up on it's righteous indigna-
tion at the Courier and l. o. The Pion-
Ger man is adverse to everything that
echoes the sentiments of the masses and
sits on his little Steele county fraud.
Go III Warner, you cannot bulldoze an
intelligent public.
Geo. Nc Cormick Is still suffering
greatly from the severe cut he sustained
while at work in the Courier ''wood lot''
nearly two months since. The wound
at one time was thought to be almost
healed, but George is again compelled to
remain in bed in order to give it another
chance. He has the sympathy of the
community in his severe sufferings.
The capacity or demands of q true
Dakota town can never be gauged. Last
week we issued three times our usual
number of papers and thought we would
have plenty left at this time next year, as
only about ], Goo extras had been spoken
for in advance. But we are disappoint-
ed, for not single copy of the Holiday
Courier can now he had, and we could
sell couple hundred more as easy as
snuff.
We always maintained that that m
vincible exp0under of farm machinery
gospel and embodiment of genuine good
nature, commonly known to US as F. H.
Buchheit, was more of q boomer than he
let on. Here's a pointer from the Mish-
awaka (Ind.) Enterprise: Erred Buch-
heit has come back from Dakota tO
spend the winter. He is very enthus-
tastic about his new western home and
will return early in the spring."
-Co0perstown got left on its train due
last Friday, it being unable to get to
Jimtown from Darlington owing to
snow drifts. However. it pulled in on
Monday In fine style and with two en-
gines. 1t IL now IN established fact
that the Cooperstown branch will not bt
blockaded, ~ the run ON Monday was
made without any stops from drifts, and
no more unfav0rable storms than w
had last week will be liable to Occur
again this winter.
-Fmm nearly every point in Dakot,
long and loud walls have been going VI
about wheat grading. Here in Coopers
town the first murmur Of complaint II
that respect IL yet to be heard. Th'
Lanham r. d l.. Company have NO
only bean paying an average Of one cen
higher than Northern Pacific prices, bu
have always given farmers the best pos
sible grade for their cereals. We IN
certainly fortunate in having this com
