Alex. 1 DelloVe Ghoro will
be quite an immigration in North Dako.
ia this season and the Missouri slope
will get a large number of them. Lands
in the Red River valley are getting so
high the settlers will soon have to come
further west for cheap lands. It has
been demonstrated that the whole state
is a good agricultural region, and we
have always known that the West Mis-
souri, country was the best in the coun-
try for stock. North Dakota is all
right.
Bids for the purchase of the stock Of
drugs and fixtures of the Frisby estate
were opened Saturday, but were all re-
jected on the ground that the property
could not be sold for less than 80 per
cent: of the appraised valuation, and
none of the bids were equal to that
amount. It was then decided to auction
off the property to the highest bidder;
and accordingly Judge Chase sold it to
Arthur G. Wilhelm, tue price paid be-
ing $2,350. Mr.. Wilhelm will take pos
session Immediately.
The Minneapolis Tribune interviewed
Judge Bartholomew in st. Paul Satur-
day: "Asked about the prohibition law
in North Dakota, he stated that he un-
derstood that the ants would soon raise
the point before the supreme bench that
the law was unconstitutional, owing to
it having been passed before the date
set for the election of the United States
senators, fixed by the state constitution,
and which portion of the constitution
might be construed as intending that no
law shall be passed before the senators
are elected. Justice Bartholomew also
stated the last reports from Hot Springs,
where Governor Burke has gone for his
health, we're that the governor was not
improving as rapidly as hoped for"
Billings Gazette: "Harry Lee, a
tourist printer of more than usual ex-
perience and travel, worked a few days
in the Gazette composing DON last
week. Lee is one of the few men on the
road who served in the Confederate
army. He belongs to a Confederate vet
erans' post in Texas, and wears a medal
awarded for services in the English
navy in Egypt. Lee has carried a typo.
graphical union card since 1867, and has
travelled through almost every part of
the civilized globe" The above gentle
man is now working on the TRIBUNE, and
like all x-Confederates who have trav-
eled through the north, has come to see
wherein he was fighting for a wrong
cause, and is fair-minded enough to adj
nit it. "But," says he, II thought then
! that we had a perfect right to secede."
