A large body of citizen held a law
and order meeting-or an indigna-
tion meeting at Fergus Falls at the
close of the G.. A. r. and civil de-
monstrations in that city last week.
They resolved against the festive
shell thief, the pimps and the pros.
titutes, vigorously! Thought they
had had enough of them for a long
time to come 1t is not a very
easy matter to get at the latter per-
sonages, but we submit that 4 pub
lie officer should not for moment
tolerate the shell thief. It's easy
enough to get at him-and knock
him out.

G. b. pINNEY ARRESTED.

MI. Ilnney OF the Farmers 4
Merchants bank was arrested this
(Thursday) morning on the charge
of having done banking business
when he knew his bank to be insol-
vent. The men making the charge
are j. IL. Miller, Schnler, Bernard
& Huesman, George Gillitt, Il. Il.
White. r. w. Beatty and II. II.
Mills.
We mentioned the fact last week
that the attachments had been dis
solved and that the matter would bc
settled by the assignee. 1t seems
that Mr.. Pinney had the attach
ments dissolved by going before
Judge Mcconnell and swearing that
the failure was a valid one, that he
and Mrs. Pinney proposed to make
honorable settlement and that as a
matter of good faith he had not
claimed his exemptions and did not
intend to do so. But no sooner was
the dissolution obtained than we
find the Pinneys back in Wahpeton,
Mrs. Pinney having filed Il claim of
$40, 900 against the defunct institu-
tion. and Mr.. Pinney claiming his
$500 exemptions, virtually leaving
the banking firm without ever hay
ing had dollar of capital of its
own,-notwithstanding the fact
that it was generally understood
that Mr.. Pinney up to the time of
failure, claimed that Mrs. Pinney
constituted the company" part
of the firm. which he at once seems
to have denied at time of failure.
There will, however, undoubtedly be
strong evidence produced to show
that dcpositors had good grounds to
believe that the Pinncy property,
whatever that might he, was legally
involved in the bank. But the turn
affairs have taken now indicates
that the creditors will not only not
get a cent in settlement, but may be
asked by Pinney to make him up Il
subscription that he may be able to
decently carry on the closing fea-
lures of his banking speculations!
The thing will of course have to
he put through the courts before
any sort of Il satisfactory solution
can he made of the affair, of which
we can form no further opinion
than that the latter movements of
the Pinneys Indicate that they are
attempting dishonest methods lead
ing up to the idea that the concern
was little else than swindling ma :
chine; and we should say that they
themselves arc fast arming the pub
lie with an idea that they deserve
place in the penitentiary. When
A1essrs. McCunber & Bogart learned
of the, late movements of the Pin
neys they at once informed them
that they wni,ld have no more to do
with the case. Mcssrs. w. S. Lru-
der and John e Pyatt have been
emplyed hy the prosecution. The
bail aggregates $1,000 and has not
vet been secured.

Word comes to this city that the

Word comes to this city that til,
wind did a good deal of damage ir
various sections, Wednesday even
ing. George Harff in from Lidger
wood says that serious damage wa
done ut Seymour. The water tanl
of the Manitoba road was complete
ly dem olished. the fan part of til,
windmill to which were attarhe
heavy castings, was carried nearly
half mile. Cars were blown from
the track, and portion of the Min
neapolis & Pacific depot was carried
away and two employees of the roal
badly hurt, their legs and arms be.
ing broken, and lives all but des
paired of. And William Oestrich
down from Walcott, says the wind
was very severe at that point, do
ing quite a good deal Of damage to
farm buildings. 1t is said that
Barnesville also suffered from the
storm.
The Methodist church difficulty
the Wahpeton public has heard SC
much about the past several months
has taken serious turn, in that
charges of incorporate and improper
language and false statements in
the pulpit have been preferred
against the Rev. Mr.. Taylor. which
has called Presiding Elder Bilbie
and dozen or fifteen clergymen
here for the examination of the
minister on such charges. A jury
is composed of five clergymen and
we understand that the Rev. Mr..
Griffith of Casselton is defending
Mr.. Taylor. The examination is
back of closed doors, but it is under
stood that in case the jury finds the
charges we'll grounded, Mr.. Taylor
will be suspended pending the next
meeting of the conference. There
are partisans on either side Of the
controversy and it is difficult to tell
how the examination will end.
LATER--The trial has ended and
Rev. Mr.. Taylor stands sus-
pended to the next meeting of con-
ference. There were ten specific
charges made, seven of which were
sustained.
The Wahpeton iircmen have re-
turned from Grafton having sus-
tanned their previously earned admi-
rable record. The Mazeppa company
(hookies) won the first prize for the
best appearing company in parade;
the Reliance took first money i'm the
free-for-all 900 foot hose race, beat
ing the record in Dakota; the Ma
zeppa took second prize in associa-
ton races, losing the banner by
half Il second on account of a mis-
fortune,-and Immediately re-ran
the race making it in two seconds
less than the time made by the win
ners of the first place, but of course
this counted for nothing more than
to show that Mazeppa lost the ban
ner on account of an accident; the
MaZeppa took first prize in the free.
for-all 600 foot race,-and in addi-
tion to this Math Bauer took tile
gold badge for best ladder man;
Grant Fritz of Reliance took second
money i'm hose coupling contest.
Thus Wahpeton got away with S2l0
of the $500 association prizes, be.
sides the gold medal and the picture
for best appearing in parade, and
proved by two seconds that Wahpe.
ton has the best hook and ladder
team in Dakota. The boys are not
fault finding at all, but are satisfied
under the circumstances.
