Tarao Notes.


Col. Morton has gone east to close trade
for an immense body of land in north Da-
kota. His firm deals in large tranactions,
and handles an immense amount of Dakota
dirt.
The Red river has fallen to its usual depth.
There has been no rain in this section as
yet, and the farmers are beginning to fear
that it won't come quite as soon as 1t may
be needed.
Peter E. Lee, of Ramsey county, is under
$500 bonds to appear at the June court In
Fargo, to meet the charge of perjury in
proving up on a presumption after having
used his right in Minnesota some years ago.
Some of the papers are urging that COL
DOMAIN be sent as the north Dakota delegate
to Chicago. The suggestion is good one,
but he don't mingle much in the political
line, and his only reason for accepting, If
he should accept, would be to get in Dakota
ON the country in this conspicuous way.
Private advices just received from Wash
ington, from the most authentic, and at
least semi-official source, leave little room
for doubt that the question of the governor
ship of Dakota has been determined, and
that Col. P. Donan will succeed Gov Ord
way. 1t is believed that this will give salts
faction in all parts of the territory.
A gentleman from Washington states the
growth of French interests under the opera
tons of Marquis de Mores, has been so great
that the French government has appointed a
consul at st. Paul, in the person Of Baron
Albert Salvador, formerly of the Paris Fig
aro, and one of the Hatch party that visited
North Dakota last summer, and where he
made hosts of friends. The announcement
of the appointment has not been noted III
any paper.

Dickinson.

S. Pelton visited Dickinson recently and
says of it: ''The town of Dickinson was
plated and first lots sold in Sept, 1882, and
a few buildings were put up during the next
winter. The railroad company spent, last
summer, $3.50, 900 in shops, round house,
depot snd the other Improvements, and there
were large number of residences and bust
ness houses erected for so young town.
The residences are mostly one story cottages,
neat and comfortable. The business
houses, mostly two . stories, are
built in solid blocks and all of
wood. The railroad shops and roundhouses
are of brick, shipped from Mandan. They
are to have brick yard started here this
season, and the frame business houses will
probably soon give place to brick blocks.
There are two churches, and regular meetings
held in the schoolhouse by the Congregation
alists, one public hall, three hotels, all crowd
ed, and fourth to let, a good opening for
business, as those running are crowded and
obliged to rent rooms in the upper stories of
business houses to lodge their guests. There
are eight stores, one meat market, one bakery
and one ladies' bazar and millinery store.
There are several saloons, yet the town is
quiet and orderly, which speaks well for their
customers and proprietors. The saloons
seem to be patronized by the large floating
population of hunters and COW boys The
population is probably about 700,

As ha. oft been stated by the better class Of
voters in the Fifth district, it been their aim
to have peace and harmony in the ranks Of the
Republican party, but the attempt Of c. A. Gil
man to ignore and ride over 1900 voters Of the
Fifth district that could not agree with him in
political matters has so far met with the most
emphatic disapprobetion of the state pIess
and the public at large and is
not sustained nor upheld by
the conservative class Of those who were his as
sociates, and we know that the opposition to
him is daily gaining in numbers as the time for
active work in conventions and election draws
near at hand. Are the voters of the Fifth ds-
trict under the control of such person as G. A.
Gilman? No; those who, only two years ago
were his strong supporters, have to-day turned
their backs upon him with loathing and abhor-
ance. Thescourse pursued by him should noa
and will not be tolerated, hence the call for a
Mass convention at Perham. Let every believer
in right and justice be present, and see that
proper delegates are chosen to represent them
in the district convention held at Moorhead on
Thursday, April q, 1894.

THE CITY COURT.
A Little Work Laid Out For the Next
Grand Jury.

y
''Bind up my wounds, give me another
horse, Keyser is himself again. exclaimed
VIM. Keyser few days ago when he swooped
down on the stable of August Kemple out
on Rice street, and got away with the latter's
favorite horse. But it was one thing to sneak
into barn at midnight, and ateal a horse,
and quite another matter to face stern Wis
aged justice in the light of day at the police
court yesterday. The laugh, if there was
any, was on the other side of the jaw, and
when Keyser was arraigned on the charge of
larceny he preferrsd taking his chances be-
fore the grand jury than to undergo an ex-
animation. He was held in the sum of ST.
800
The case of Henry Pratt, which had been
continued at least a half dozen times, finally
came to and issue yesterday. Pratt is the
young man who broke into .Feise's saloon,
corner of Fourth and Wabashaw streets,
few weeks ago and got away with few hum
dred cigars and a half dozen billiard balls.
He was held to the grand jury and COM
mitted.
William Tegmeyer, a young man from the
country, and Josie Searles, faded cyprian,
were arraigned on the charge of disorderly
conduct Tegmeyer arrived in the city
day or two ago, and Tuesday night he started
out with couple of friends to see the
sights. They landed in a brothel, where
William made mash on the fair but frail
Josie, and the mercenary maiden afterwards
tried to bleed him for his roll. This led to a
disturbance and they were both run in.
When arraigned yesterday the whimpering
William cried hike a calf and the big tears
rolled down his dirty but honest face. The
court gave him talk and let him off. The
frail Josie, who is wretched creature in
hard luck, at BEST was also advised to leave
the city, and on promising to go she was re-
leased.
William Schultz, free lunch fend, who
has worked out all the paying claims in the
city, was up for vagrancy. AS there were no
more lunch routes for him to conquer, and
as he promised to leave the city, his sentence
was suspended.
Daniel Doherty loaded himself to the
guards on bug juice, Tuesday, and then tried
to clean out the st. Thomas hotel He was
before the court yesterday, and the daisies
will blow on the dappled mead when he is
released from the Workhouse.

GIendire. Hontnnn.

Glendive, at the head of navigation on the
Yellowstone, is one of the leading points for
cattle and furs. 1t is 600 miles west Of st.
Paul. a visitor gives this statement Of it,:
s'The town was laid out in October, 1880,
since which time it has grown to a busting
place of 1000 Inhabitants. Two banks find
business enough to keep them occupied, and
there are other stores of all kinds. The
court house, which cost $50, 600, is a fine
structure of brick, and would do a credit to a
place of ten times the population, while a
school house to cost $4,000, shortly TO be
built will also be a very fire edifice. There
arc several hotels, the principal one being a
.four-story frame, of handsome architecture,
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1884-04-17


which for convenience and comfort is not
excelled between st. Paul and Portland.
This building cost $4,000 Unlike nearly
allnew towns, building has not been overdone,
and therefore there is steady demand for
good houses, in fact, there is not sufficient
number vacant to supply the demand, al
though this is the dullest season OF the year,
and many families have to content them
selves with lodgings. Houses rent readily
for from thirty to fifty per cent. on the cost
of building, while lots may be secured at
prices ranging from 500 to S1,5OO-the
former price for residence, the latter for bus
mess lots. The spring building contracts
are already being let, and before many
weeks several handsome brick business
houses viii be well under way. The climate
is very healthy and disease is little known.
Through the extreme dryness of the atmos-
phere the cold is very little felt in winter, al
though the thermometer sometimes registers
thirty degrees below zero, and for
the same reason the heat is
not SO oppressive in summer"

western naturally preferred to own rather than
lease the Blair road beds.


lease the Blair road beds
THE SIOUX CITY AND PACIFIC SYSTEM,
which is included in the purchase, comprises the
main line between Sioux City and Missouri Valley,
seventy five miles. The Fremont, Elkhorn and
Missouri Valley, was the name under which the
Sioux City and Pacific operated its Nebraska d.
vision. The main line Of this division Is 200
miles from Missouri Valley to Valentine, and
the branch between Norfolk and Creighton,
forty-two miles, Il total of 423 miles. 1t includes
the magnificent new bridge at Blair. though
this bridge is owned by another company, the
Blair and Missouri Valley. The bridge will be
crossable for cars before the road is turned over
to its new owners.
HOW = AFFECTS THE CENTRAL.
The Iowa Falls & Sioux City, mentioned in the
letter as one of the properties sold to the North
western, is, as the name implies, the line be-
tween Iowa Falls and Sioux City. In 1867 it was
leased by Mr. Blair and his friends to the Illinois
Central company for twenty years. So the lease
does not expire for three years more. There
was provision in the lease that the Central
could retain the road longer at the same rental if
desired. 1t does not appear that the change in
ownership of the road bed will hasten the going
or protract the stay Of the Illinois Central. That
company has claimed for some years that the
rental, understood to be 35 per cent of the gross
receipts, wBs more than the business would bear.
Whether this more than the talk of tenant
wanting better terms from his landlord will be
known about the time the lease expires. Sioux
City would be sorry to see so useful road draw
out and with the growth of Iowa and the west,
the Iowa division should be made profitable. In
any event, it will be profit or loss in operating
the leased road bed, and not because the road bed
has been sold by NJ. Blair to Mr.. Vanderbilt, and
will induce the Illinois Central to stay or go.
BUILDING PROBABILITIES.
The purchase by the Northwestern of the
leased roads, and of the Sioux City g. Pacific,
makes necessary some building to weld the sys-
tenn together. The line that rests at Kingsley
viii need to be continued to Sioux City. To give
the Northwesterns Dakota system o southern
inlet over the Sioux City G. Pacific track will be
needed fIom SEINE point on the Iroquois line be-
tween Ireton and Centervile to Sioux City. There
are excellent reasons, too, for believing that the
Northwestern will extend west from Valentine
to q connection with the Central Pacific. Here
tofore Sioux City trade mas been able to go west
as far as the Sioux City & Pacific track went and
there is no reason why it should not 90 west with
the end of the track beyond Valentine. The rates
on freight to points between Blair and Valentine
re the same from Sioux City and Omaha. 1t
does not appear that the change in ownership
viii change this equitable arrangement.

THE LATE JOHN NEARY.
Victim Of Wild Shot by a Drunken
DaSnnradO

In the confusion and excitement conse-
quent upon the tragic death of John Neary,
the young man who was so cruelty shot while
attending to the peaceful dnties of life about
two weeks ago: mention was omitted of the
young mans private life and character,
which, be it said, was blameless from re-
proach, and exemplary in all the qualities of
fiial love and devotion and good citizenship
At the time when John Neary was stricken
down by the bullet of Porter, he was just on
the verge of reaching his majority, and had
he lived he would have been twentv-one
years Of age in July. He was the third son
OF Mr.. and Mrs. Patrick. Neary, and the fam
lily came from Fond du Lac, Wis. to st. Paul
something over two years ago. Upon their
arrival in st. Paul the subject of this sketch
obtained employment with the firm of Prem
dergast Bros, of East Third street, and he
took up the trade of; a. tinsmith.
Diligent application and hard work had
made him in less than three years a skilled
workman, and his services had come to be
highly valued by the firm in whose employ
ne was. lie was young man of sober
habits and strict moral principles, and in
view OF this some idea may be had of the
grief occasioned by his loss among his
parents, brothers and sisters, friends, and
the circle OF society in which he was a bright
and valued member. Perhaps the sorrow
felt was better expressed in the beautiful
floral tributes with which his caslet was
streWn at the time of his funeral The floral
emblems were exceedingly lovely, and most
notable among the offerings was a design rof
smllaX, fmmortelles and roses, representing
a pair of shears, the gift of PrendergastBros.
Then there were lovely flowers, from Mrs.
Corcoran, Mr.. Christopher Serm, of Fond du
Lac, Wis, Mrs. Thomas O'Reagan, Mrs. Nc
Donough, and an anchor from his sisters.
lie was an estimable young man, and his
loss is lamented by his friends and society.

through the city is on this street and in front
Of the property herein mentioned; and that
the action of the city in granting the compa-
MES above named the privilege of building
bridge on the south side of said street will
cause loss to tile plaintiffs of at least half
the value Of their property, by closing up the
street and diverting travel away from this
natural and long existing thorougEfare of
trade over the bridge. Hence the court is
asked to let each and every one of the above
defendants be forever enjoined and restrain
ed from erecting bridges or other structures
tending to block up the street and divert
travel in other directions.

The Rhed,,,s Trial.

The trial of Henry Rheams for murder is
in progress in the Clay county court at Moor
head. An account of the killing was given
at the time, two or three months since. He
had quarrel with former named Chase,
and shot him in fear of personal injury, ac-
cording to the theory of the defense, al
though the excited testimony of the prisoner
greatly weakened that defense. The wife of
the prisoner and widow of the murdered man,
with a child or two, appear in court and some
pathetic incidents transpire. The. case will
probably conclude to-day and a verdict be
rendered, which the general impression
would surmise as adverse to the defendant
who is German. and has had fair repu-
