A visit among the business firms at Bis
msrck, the past week, revealed decided
improvement in all branches of trade and
a more cheerful, hopeful spirit displayed
by all classes of dealers; and especially
was this the case with the Gull River Lum.
Der Company, of which, Mr.. Isaac Hooper,
esq.,, is agent. This firm has always main
tained steadfast confidence in the supe-
riority and ultimate success of the Mis-.
souri, Slope both as an agricultural and
stock raising country, and as an evidence
of their faith in the region surrounding
them, they have recently stocked up their
yards In Bismarck with immense quanti-
ties of lumber of every grade. They now
carry larger supply than can be found
in any lumber yard in the northwest, which
they are selling to farmers at greatly re-
duced rates. Our friends in Mclean coun-
ty who contemplate purchasing lumber,
should not fail to call upon Mr.. Hooper
when they visit the capital city. They
will find Mr.. Hooper courteous gentle
man, and they will also find that he will
give them prices that will defy competition.

Bismarck Tribune: The mandamus pro-
ceedings instituted by ]. E. Britt..n of the
Mclean County Mail against County Aud
itor Wells of Mclean county, to show why
he does not furnish the said Mail with the
official proceedings of the county board,
and other public printing for said county,
came up for hearing before Judge Win
chester in chambers at Bismark on Monday
afternoon. Judge Rice of Mandan ap-
peared for Britton, and F. II. Register for
Auditor Wells. The case was continued to
yesterday morning, when the court dis
missed the writ of mandamus for the
reason that the code provided aspeedy and
adequate remedy at law, and that the
plaintiff should avail himself of its pro-
visions.
The result in the above mentioned action
is a triumph for the Washburn Leader, and
we hope our neighbor will accept his defeat
in the firm belief that 1--WE are the people
and must be respected" We sincerely hope
that hereafter there will beno more monkey
work in this matter of the county printing.
The action of the board of commissioners
last February has virtually been sustained
in this decision, and ought to put stop
to all attemps in the future to thwart the
will of the people.

Dawson Standard. The editor of the
jamestown Alert enters fully into the spirit
of our free institutions when he promul-
gates the following doctrine: mo excuse
of police regulations can serve for the
deprivation of mems rights where they do
not interfere with the freedom and equal
privileges of other men. The supreme
court of the United States has misinter-
preted the spirit of the founders of the
American republic. The declaration of
independence, uniting all classes of free
men seeking refuge in new partnership,
never intended to prevent the future citi-
zens of the new world from eating, drink
ing and making merry, each after his own
design, in absolute and unrestricted enjoy
ment. This government was not started
to foster creed, prejudice, or q moral
dictum. It was begun to establish and
proclaim for all the world that this country
was the headquarters of men and women
who believed in personal liberty of action,
in education-in freedom, practical and
supreme. The meaning of the word free
dom has never entered into the full and
lucid comprehension of q great many
people from other countries, who are citi-
zens of this by adoption, and who never
would have enjoyed their present privil-
eges had this government been founded
by men of the calibre of the prohibition
law-givers of North Dakota" The Stan
dard does not attempt to uphold the sin
of to free indulgence in the drinking
habit when it endorses the foregoing.
But it does take issue with the fanatical
reformers who are responsible for the
enactment of laws, which, though they may
be conscientiously intended to remove the
evil, are direct abridgment of the indivd-
ual and personal rights of the people.

Further disclosures are made as to the
elimination of the supply Of natural gas
in the Indiana field. Experience has
proved, according to the published figures,
that the average life of q well where drawn
upon constantly, is about three years and
az some of them the time is shorter. !.

Died In HIS Grave.

The most horrible case of being
buried alive comes from Pennsylva-
MIA Ii is too horrible to contemplate
and makes the blood freeze in the
veins 1t occurred near Erie. A lit
tie over two weeks ago George Hell
decker, farmer of Green township,
apparently died very suddenly of
what was supposed 10 have been heart
failure. The remains were buried
four days later from St. Johns Luth-
Gran church, being temporarily ia
TERED in neighbor's lot in the Erie
cemetery, pending the purchase Of one
by his family. The transfer was
made, and when the remains were ex-
humed, the casket was opened at the
request Of his family, and horrify
ing spectacle was presented The
body had turned around lying on its
face, and il and the interior of the
casket bore traces of a terrible strug-
gle with death in in its most awful
shape. The distorted and blood COW
cred features bore evidence of the
horrible agony endured. The cloth.
ing about the head and neck had been
torn into shreds, as was likewise the
lining of the coffin. Bloody marks
of finger nails on the face, throat AND
neck told of the awful despair of th,
doomed man, who tore his own fiesl
in his terrible anguish Several fling
els had been entirely bitten of, anc
the hands torn with the teeth unit
they scarcely resembled those of |
human being.
