selected at the last tri-ennial concIave:
"ro Our Grand Master Hugh McCurdy:
From ocean to ocean and from the gulf

pated: "Christuas, the birthday of Him
who is the embodiment OF all the
Templar's hopes. The inspirer of that
spirit which makes all Knight Templars

Sir Knight Ingraham invited the COM

His hospitality was accepted and the
hotel was the scene of continued merri-
ment and good cheer. The excellent
menu provided by Landlord Ingraham
was highly complmented.

Major Waugh's Wards.

Major Jno. Waugh in the Devils Lake
Inter Ocean: The Fort Totten Indians
are very prosperous and are nearly as
self supporting as any Indians IN the
country. -Four years ago the govern
ment issued supplies and rations to the
amount of $25,O0O. Tue following year
it gave them $4,000, but for the last two
years it has given them nothing and the
Indians have supported themselves.
This year they have raised $4,000 bush
els OF wheat. 10000 bushels OF oats and
25,OOO bushels of potatoes. Their wheat
is the finest sample in the state. They
have plenty of money and Cramsie and
Palmer have collected lots of old debts
this fall, some of them running back ten
years. As to their honesty, there we're
two threshing machines from Minnesota
on the reservation this fall, and when
they got through there was only about
S25 OF the amount due them unpaid.
Those Indians are as intelligent and
we'll posted on the affairs of the day as
many citizens of this state who have
been critlciziug the vote at Fort Tot
ten.

Proof Of the Pudding.

If any person has doubts as to the ex-
tent of the illegal liquor traffic in North
Dakota and could get information from
the express companies as to business
done in that line, all doubts would in
stantly vanish. Moorhead, Mimi, has
built up Aour1shinR wholesale trade in
this state, since the prohibition law went
into effect. The sales of wine, beer,
whisky and lntoxicants OF all kinds are
increasing daily, and have already reach
ed an enormous figure. Travelling men
make regular trips to the towns and vii
lages in this state to take orders. The
blind pig has succeeded the open saloon.
One express messenger running on a
single route in thisstate, informs The Alert
that f,om twenty to forty remittances
are made over his line daily to Moorhead
liquor dealers, for goods sent TO points
along this one line. These remlttances
run from SO to 500. The aggregate
business done by all the companies on
all the roads in the state must be very
great. . ,..
In the case Of the manufacture of beer,
which is most used, q great part of this
money could be kept at home, if the
breweries had cot been driven across the
Red river. The manufacturers of soda,
pop, and other soft drinks have also been
driven out by the law.

WILL COMPLETE The ROAD.
News That the Duluth, Pierre
and Black Hills Line Will
be Finished.
Some Information About the
Work Done. Good Coun-
try Tributary.
Some Information Concerning
the Department of
Education.

A dispatch from Pierre, s. D., says that
city Is exuitant on account Of the news
that the contracts have been awarded
for the ironing and equipment of the
Duluth, Pierre & Black Hills railway, a
line to run from Duluth by way of ST..
Paul to Aberdeen. then to Pierre and
across the lately ceded reservation to
Rapid City. The present contract is for
tue completion of the road from Aber-
deem to Pierre, and Rapid City next
year. This is the line of which Engin-
eer B. P. Tilden Of this city had the con-
struction charge, and under whose en-
gineerlng directions about Is miles in all
have been graded. The grade from Alb
erdeen southwest is completed for AZ
miles and from Pierre northeast, for 30
miles. This work has been done by the
local companies assisted by the counties
and the city of Pierre.
Most of the funds have been raised by
bonding the counties. Aberdeen voted
$4,000 for this purpose, but was unable
to market the warrants. That city has
invested as yet bat little IN the enter
prise, having paid only about 1000 of
the surveying charges. The road runs
through good country and crosses the
counties of Edmunds, Brown, Faulk.
Hyde, Hughes and Sully. The total
length from Aberdeen to Pierre is l27
miles. It is understood that the COM
pany has the franchise to bridge the
Missouri river. The road is of an easy
grade and can be built cheaply.
General Manager James A. Ward yes
terday telegraphed Mr.. Tilden from
Huntevllle, Ala, for information as to
certain details of work already done
Eastern and southern capitalists are said
to have taken hold of the road, which
will be run as an independent line, the
Northern Pacific having been unable to
complete it as was first supposed that
company intended to do.

stating the condition Of these banks,
about which 80 much unfavorable com
ment has Of late appeared in the press.
The Mears banks are located at Mlnot,
Towner. Rugby, Edgely and Fargo. The
examiner, at the request OF eastern stock
holders, made an examination Of the
above banks last February. He states
that the assets are "poor and nothing
like charged value can ever be realized
from them; that the bills receivable are
long past due and are of little value; that
the bond accounts consist of bonds &C.
cured by real estate mortgages, many
on claims that have been abandoned, and
unless great rush of immigration takes
place, these securities, in the opinion of
the examiner, will not bring so per cent
Of their face value" The report states
that the coupon accounts of these
banks consist of coupons paid
upon mortgages cold to eastern
parties and are almost worthless. Such
stock as the "Phmnix Insurance Co."
the ~. S. Sheep Co." "Guarantee
Co.," ''North Dakota Title
g. Investment Co." are in the opin-
ion of the public examiner nothing but
wind, and we're organized IN the first
place as feeders or more strictly speaking
bleeders. The report states that Mr.
Mears has an original system of banking
and finance. Among the details of this
portion Of the report, is shown discrep-
ency of some $4,000 in the account of
the construction of the building occu.
pied by the Mortgage Bank and Invest
ment Co. .: Fargo, which is not salts
factorily explained. The report declares
that no one can ascertain the real con
dition of these institutions without all
are examined at the same ii ne and much
additional information furnished by cas- :
ern stockholders; that many eastern de
positors are secured, or think they are
secured by collateral the actual value of
which in many cases is less than one. half
the amount supposed to be secured,
that the people of North Dakota are no,
creditors of these banks and that those
involved are generally eastern parties
who have jumped at the opportunity to
get rate Of interest beyond the posi-
bllity OF any corporation to pay and live.
The public examiner states that No power
in the state law gives him the right to
force the appointment of receivers for
such banks, and that the stockholders
themselves have their recourse in the
courts,

crowded 10 their studies and more work
assigned them than they could do. In a
number Of these cases Supt. Wagner
states that pupils have been permitted
to attend entertainments and other
amusements, nights, until late hours and
consequently are unable to do them
selves justice in school work, the follow
ing day.
1t is the desire OF the teachers and the
board of education that the standard of
the city schools be kept high, and to &C.
complish this, certain amount of care.
full, steady work is required of pupils.
The recent examinations are said to show
the result Of this policy, in a decided de-
gree. It is stated that there are made
quate facilities for instruction in nearly
all the rooms. New apparatus, maps.
astronomical and reading charts, are
badly needed. More than all Is desired
a new set of blackboards. The boards
now In use are old and lilly adapted
to the purpose, it being necessary to use
soft chalk which creates constant dust,
injurious alike to the health of pupils
and teachers. The janitor service is also
said to be insufficient at times, and the
janitor states that his pay ls not suf-
ticient for the work required. 1t is es-
timated that $1,000 are badly needed to
purchase modern school apparatus,
models in physiology, and other sup
plies for all grades.
Taxation is high and the school ex-
penses already large, but if there is one
thing lhav The public does demand fr.m
the expenditure of public money it is
high standard in the public schools. The
school board is taking an active interest
in the work of the schools, and at the
first opportunity,i is believed will supply
the needed material.
