The Firemen's Contest Settled.

The trustees of the Bismarck fire de-
partment met again at the city hall Friday
evening to continue the contest for chief
engineer. The deadlock was still on-six
for LAVAL and six for Van born. No one
had weakened and 1t was evident that
further balloting would be useless. After
some skirmishing it was decided by the
principals to decide the contest by lottery.
Two slips of paper were placed in a hat.
On one was written "chief." on the other
assistant" The contt stants drew. There
were no blanks-a prize for each. LAVAL
drew the "chlef" and Van Horn the "as-
sistant." Thus has a spirited but good
natured contest been settled satisfactory
to all parties concerned. Both are worthy
young men, popular and efficient firemen.
The other officers of the department
elected were Frank Kihm. PRESIDENT; j M.
Edgerly, vice-president; Richard Penwar-
den, secretary; and Frank Moorhouse,
treasurer,

O'Hare Leaves the Pen,

Sheriff Sven N. Heskins of Trail county
came up from Caledonia last week
to escort Maurice O'Hare back to Cass
county, where he will be Jailed. O'Hare
has been serving a life sentence for muir.
der in the Bismarck penitentiary and by
the interchangeable efforts of Attorney Tay-
lor Crum of Fargo. has been granted a new
trial by the supreme court. Brown, the
Moorhead murderer, who was recently
hanged, gave some important testimony
before his death, bearing on this case, which
looks as though O'Hare might escape with
something less than a life sentence. At
torney Crum deserves great credit for the
interest he has taken in O'Hare's case.
OHare was without friends or money and
Mr.. Crum stuck to him through thick and

EVANSVILLE COURIER
Wants improvements Exempted From
Taxation,

Taxation.
The Evansville Courier, one of the
leading daily papers of Indiana. editor
Tally suggests to the city council of
Evansville that they inaugurate this
year the policy of reducing the ASSESS
ment on Improvements one-third each
year until Improvements shall be free
of all taxation by the year 1892" II
thus continues; "If the tax is shifted
from improvements to the land on which
they are built nobodys assessment will
be increased and none will be diminish
ed, 1t Is true. But we shall have a basis
for assessment of land in the year 1899
that will make it an easy matter to
largely increase the revenues without
increasing the rate of taxation" The
courier backs up this proposition by an
argument going to show that the effect
OF the change would be to stimulate
building. 1t says that if a man were
now to go to the owner of vacant land
and say If you will put me up house 1
Will pay you so much rent the owner
would reflect that il he did build, his
taxes would at once be increased. On
the other hand, if such proposition
were made when land alone was taxed.
1t says the owner, elf he knew he could
not be fined. would cheerfully put up n
house in order that he might obtain a
revenue from it and the land on which
he is paying taxes that bring no return"
The Evansville Courier is becoming a
very good single tax paper, limited.

Our readers have seen the advertisement
OF Morse's Shoe Factory in our columns for
the past few months, and we take this on
portunlty OF saying that it is almost the old
est shoe concern west of the Mississippi
river, and is one of the largest shoe concernPs
In the entire west. They are conducting a
very large factory at Omaha, and from alI
the reports that We hear, they are MAKING
goods that are well suited TO our western
people.
1t is Of the greatest Importance to enconr-
age manufactures in the west: They give
employment to our surplus labor, and In
many other ways help our section of the
country.
This concern only sells its goods to mer
chants, but we are satisfied that it would be
