summer nights festival in the garden of
MannerchC. hotel last evening and there
was tremendous crowd present The

members of the society with their families
and friends, while one corner was fenced off
for the use of the public The instrumental
music was furnished by the City band and
was very fine. Several pieces were sung by
the members of the .Mnnnerchor. Between

and the large crowd took refuge in the hall
where, to the music of the band, dancing was
kept up for some time The affair was very
enjoyable and all who attended had good
time.

The First Pioneers.

Over the signature of "S," the fol.
lowing interesting bit of Dakota ear
ly history is contributed to the
Times-Democrat by correspondent
now in this city: "Thinking it may be
of some little interest to our visitors
from Dakota to know who were the
first white women and who the first
white child that ever ventured be.
yond the Red river of the North into
the heart of Dakota Wonderland
give their names: Mrs. S. G.. Humph-
reys, of the parish of Terrebonne and
her little Lucy now Mrs. Lewis S.
Johnstone, of st. Bernard parish;
Miss Mary b. Humphreys, of Ken
tucky, now Mrs. Anthony Day of
New York; Miss Henrietta p Johns
ton, daughter of Gen. Albert Sidney
Johnston.
In the early autumn of 1850 these
ladies. with Mr.. Joseph A. Humph-
reys and Mr.. Henry Adams, brother
of Gen. Writ Adams, started from
Minneapolis with the determination
of going in the direction of DEVILS
lake until they saw buffalo.
On reaching Fort Abercrombie,
Maj. Day, then in command of the
post, did his utmost to dissuade them
from 80 perilous an adventure as he
termed it; but finding them deter
mined, he furnished the ladies with
an escort of fifteen men, we'll armed
and equipped, a Sibley tent, field
glasses. buffalo robes and half breed
to guide them to the hunting ground
over which the Indians were then
keeping most Jealous watch.
just before starting they were
joined by about twenty Southerners,
who accompanied them on this novel
expedition.
They did not find any buffalo, but,
with the aid of the field glasses, saw
on an elevation in the prairie at some
distance, standing proudly against
the horizon, herd of seventeen elk.
The only game killed was bear on
the shore of beautiful lake, coon,
a crane and hundreds of prairie
chickens. Around the bright camp
fire, on the bank of the Cheyenne,
these pioneer pleasure-seekers heard
the Episcopal service read by Judge
Smedes of Nic!.sburg. This, it is be-
lieved, is the first time the Episcopal
service was ever read to Christian
congregation in that territory.
Despite the vigilance of the SOL
diers Oh guard, two of the horses be-
longing to the party were stolen by
the Indians, which made the gentle
men very distrustful of the guide.
Other hostile demonstrations from
the Indians determined them to cut
short their trip and return to the
fort.
Perhaps mono among the thousands
who have enjoyed the privilege of
visiting the Worlds exposition can

Regarding Township Organization.

Editor Dickinson Press
The question Of township organi.
zation seems to be uppermost in the
councils of the ..lcxding citizens" re.
siding in the eastern portion of ou1
county. 1t is said many of these
''leading citizens' are in favor of
township organization. What is to
be gained by it, 1T is difficult to say,
but there are many reasons against
taking this step.
Some claim that With township
organization the road money would
be spent in the district where it was
raised and the people could work out
their road taxes instead of paying
them in money. This can be done
without township organization. Chap.
20, Sec. IS OF the Revised Code reads:
''Any road tax levied by the board OF
county commissioners, in addition to
the poll tax, may he worked out in
the road district in which person re-
sides when it is tax on personal
property, or in the same district
where the real property is situate on
which the tax is levied
Before road taxes can be worked
out it is necessary for roads to exist.
But little money has been spent on
roads in the county as yet, in fact,
one of the townships has no roads
laid out and until the people of the
township have roads laid out their
road taxes must necessarily be paid
and not worked out.
Township organization means ad-
ditional taxation. This luxury can
not he had without paying for it. 1t
means complication of the affairs of
the county. In return the people get
absolutely nothing. They enjoy the
same liberty and have the same voice
in the government without it as with
it. Why burden the township with
unnecessary expense! Is it simply to
make offices for few hungry ones!
Are the tax payers willing to pay the
expense of all annual township cleo
ton and, perhaps, heavy bills for
litigation. which a board of super
visors, ignorant of the law may
plunge the township into! Are they
willing to pay an assessor S3 day
for twenty OF thirty days when the
county is ready to pay it for them!
1t is to be presumed they will answer
no. Think over it we'll before you
conclude to saddle yourselves With
all unnecessary burden. When once
assumed it can not he shaken oft
Better not assume it.

The! above announcement is certainly
q surprise to many here, but it would be
hard to find better mated couple or a
couple who are SO universally liked.
After the first surprise was over, every
one began congratulating and the best
wishes Of all follow Mr.. and Mrs. Truscott,
The former has returned to his ranch to
prepare for the coming roundup work,
while the latter has gone to her home in
New Richland, Mimi, to improve her
health, which was rather poor here.
Again we repeat that il Ne saloon men
would club together, we think it is posi-
BILE to prevent Morton county from COL
Letting license and the money can be
left in our own county for school pur-
poses. In any event several queer things
have been done, showing that there may
be some doubt as to the legality of the
F.licence. If our informant is correct, if
teen dollars was demanded from the
saloon-keepers Of Belfeld for license to
apply before May 1. Three persons paid
this, Max Bass refusing payment. That
this fifteen dollars applied before May /,
seems evident from the fact that at least
two of the saloon-keepers have not sold
since May /, and their money has not
been returned. Here, the fifteen dollars
paid was the first installment of the
license money from May /. In Belfeld,
Max Bass has not been compelled to nav,
nor have those here who quit selling MAY
1. There are Inconsistencies in these
facts which go to show that there Is some
doubt as to the application of the law.
Then again, why is it necessary and by
what authority do the prosecuting attor-
ney and deputy-sherif Of Morton county
come here to collect the taxes? Why is
it not the treasurer's duty to try and col
|lect the license money first? Then in
