Bishop Stanley Replies.

Bishop STANLEY in the Fargo Argus
replies vigorously to the charge recently
made by a local paper that the Turtle
Mountain Indian reservation is a veri-
table breeding ranch, and that Catholics
are not altogether prompted by an inor-
dinate love for poor Lo in their organ
lied fight for the retention of the reser-
walton on the Turtle mountains, but

back of their efforts is found the mer-
cenary motive for no other purpose than
to raise children for their mission
schools. The bishop vigorously replies
and says:
San Indian woman might, under prov
o%cation, scalp an enemy; she will not kill
her unborn babe. It is greatly to the
credit of these Turtle Mountain Indians
that they have many children, and that
their cemetery at Belcourt, while nearly
filled with corpses, contains no victims
Of abortion, though there are several
victims of starvation in that little ceme-
terry.
OF the reservation the bishop says:
''The two townships now occupied by
those Indians can never make the Indi-
n self-supporting. The nearnes of
the international line gives the Canadian
Indians a chance to avail themselves of
our hospitality somewhat too much or
at least it creates a suspicion in some
minds that we are asked to feed and
clothe other peoples children. More
over it would be easier to care for the
spiritual interest of those poor people if
they we're at White Earth, Mimi, while
their material prosperity would be great
ly advanced. I am likewise aware that
the authorities at Washington wish to
remove the Turtle mountain band, and I
am with the government-heart and soul
and purse--in everything that goes to
better the condition of the Indians.
"But before this removal takes place
there are two very important questions
to settle. First, who are to be removed?
1t must be decided who are the Turtle
Mountain Indians and who are not. The
second question to be settled before re-
moving those Indians is the justice of the
claim to a large tract of land from a part
of which they are to DO removed. If the
Indians have a good case against us, as
many of them think they have, we ought
to pay them. Honesty is the %bestspolicy,
even with the Indians"

Judge Templeton: The action brought
by a farmer against the Minneapolis &
Northern Elevator Co., to compel them
to store his wheat for the statutory price
of 2 cents per bushel, was submitted to
me on Saturday at Grand Forks, and I
rendered a decision Saturday evening.
The elevator claimed that it was willing
to store wheat for 219 cents per bushel,
and L held that as long as they, being a
public corporation, should receive wheat
for storage, they must accept the price
fixed in the statute therefor until they
came into court and showed that such
statutory charge was unreasonable and
below the cost of such service. This
was the only question at issue in that
particular case, the question of whether
a corporation organized to carry on a
wheat business could be compelled to
store If they did not want to, did not
arise. This company admitted that
they were storing wheat. The question
Of the reasonableness of the statutory
storage charge was not raised either. I
held that the court would presume it to
be reasonable until it was shown to be
otherwise.

Rev. Ryan at Steele.

Ozone: The lecture of Rev. s. E
Ryan, Of Bismarck, under the auspices
of the ladies Of the W. @. T. u, at the
court house last evening was we'll at
tended. Rev. Ryan is a member of the
state enforcement league recently organ
lied at jamestown, and the force of his
talk was aimed at the keepers of "blind
pigs" He stated that, while he under
stood there were no such quadrupeds as
blind pigs in this county, he was here to
raise the Macedonian cry; that the en-
envy was of great number and very pow
erful. He poured some hot shot into the
ranks of the local authorities at Mandan,
where, he said, saloons were running
wide open;" that the states attorney of
that burg had fatty refused to enforce
the law by arresting keepers of blind
pigs, and when a certain citizen offered
to do this work, if vested with the power
by Attorney General Spencer-and he
got the power-he said he would not do
the work of enforcing the law unless he
received 1926 for each arrest in addition
to the regular fee. Mr.. Ryan desires to
see an enforcement league organized in
every community in the state, whether
liquor is sold or not. He characterized
the present violations Of the p%rohibitory
law, and the refusal of sworn officers of
the state to enforce it, as drifting toward
anarchy, and that it is time for some
thing to be done. After the lecture ice
cream, cake and coffee we're served in the
office of the register of deeds.
