North Dakota Elevator w. Smith.

The case of Northern Dakota Elevator
company vs.. Smith and others was fled
in the clerks Office of the supreme court
Monday. This is an appeal from a
Judgment of Judge Rose in Griggs
county. The defendants we're running a
bank in that place and paying off wheat
checks for the elevator company. An
assignment for the benefit of creditors
was made by the defendants and along
with the property turned over to the as
slgnee was some money standing to the
credit Of the company. The bank Of
ticials claimed that this sum must stand
in the same position as the remaining
depositors and stand their chance of be-
ing repaid out of the proceeds obtained
by the assignee. Suit was brought to
have the amount due the elevator COM
pany turned over at once, on the ground
that it was not a general deposit, but
simply a fund placed in the banks
hands for accommodation and not as a
deposit. The lower court sustained this
position and it comes up for review on
this point. Hon. David Bartlett will ap-
pear for the bank, the appellants, and
Hon. E. W. Camp contra.

In the Russian COLONY.

Miss Jessamine Slaughter writes home
an interesting description of her school
in the Russian colony of Dakem-nine-
ty miles south of Bismarck in Emmons
county. She describes the colonists as
an industrious, religious and kind-heart-
ed class Of people-who live in primitive
fashion, wear sheepskin garments and
burn straw and other things
for fuel. No English is
spoken there, and the Russ is a peculiar
dialect, but having many words syno-
namous with the German, Swede and
Norwegian tongues-which her knowl-
edge of those languages enables her to
comprehend. They all welcomed the
young teacher cordially-the women be-
ing most kind and motherly in their re-
ception of her. The children come to
school in little sleighs, or "schliddgs," as
they call them. There has been a heavy
snowfall, and with the snow piled up to
the roofs Of the low, plastered sod
houses, the scene is strongly suggest
i've of the real Russia in the old world.
Miss Jessamiue adds that she is "just
the least mite in the world homesick,
but will be quite content when she has
mastered the language"

Shadow and Bubble Social

The social given by the Ladies Aid
society of the M. E. church, on Monday
evening, was a grand success. EThe
young and the old enjoyed themselves
"blowing bubbles" talking with each
other about the current events of the day,
and becoming acquainted with new
faces, and making strangers feel at home.
The children enjoyed the occasion, and
the merry ring of their voices called
back to us "the days when we were
young
The closing feature of the program was
the "Shadow" scene.
First-Going to the Moon.
Second-Venus and Cupid.
Third-After the Burglars.
Fourth-Rheumatic Patient.
Fifth-Unpleasant Dreams.
Sixth-A Popular Animal in North
Dakota-"A Blind Pig" This scene
was loudly applauded, after which the
entertainment was brought to a close by
greetings, each person feeling as though
it "was good to have been there" The
Ladies Aid society will give another en-
tertainment in the neal future.

Land Office Notes,

John G. Dose of Sterling made proof
on his homestead Saturday.
A peculiar contest case before the land
Office is that of Carlson vs.. Bryant. 1t
appears that Bryant was adjudged in
sane and sent to the asylum at James,
town. Carlson enters a contest against
Bryant on the grounds of abandon
ment.
The contest case of Hiram A. Joy VS..
Nathan Dunkelberg has been decided in
favor Of the contestant, Joy. The land
involved is a tree claim and the ground
of contest was failure to comply with the
law in regard to timber culture.

Congress at Last Takes Action.
A bill has been introduced at Wash
ington requiring all baking powders con-
tanning alum and ammonia to be SO la
beled. This is a step in the right dlrec-
ton, and has been long foreshadowed by
the action of state legislatures, boards of
health, food commissioners, ETC., in this
matter. The bill affords needed protec-
ton to the public, for the evidence as to
the injurious effects of alum and am
monia is very heavy; but it will never
theless be fought bitterly by the manu-
facturers whom it effects who are accus-
toned to sell their goods as "pure cream
of tartar absolutely pure" etc.
The bill is something needed. If a
maker uses a drug in his powder, the
name of which he does not want to have
printed on his label, it is prima facie
evidence that there is something wrong.
We hope the subject will be vigorously
prosecuted all over the country, not only
as regards baking powder, but also all
other food authorizations.
This bill may incidentally benefit the
makers of pure articles, but if it should,
this is only an additional point in it's
favor,

Suggestions From Editor Streeter.

Williamsport Record: But there is
,onephase of the Healy matter in which
all good citizens are interested, and that
Eis.the theory of the Settler as to the infal-
|libility of church member, as shown by
ats attempt to acquit IN advance a church
man accused of crime. The Record be-
lieyes in church organization. 1t be-
llieves that the ninety-and nine of the
various memberships are professors of
religion from honsst conviction and not
ssfrom worldly considerations. Societies
atounded On a desire to apply the golden
rule and observe the ten commandments
E1should receive the respect and good will
1of every non-professipg citizen who loves
1his country and values a government
Founded on right. But a hypocrite may
Eenter the fold; and the Record protests
ekgainst the assumption that a man must
Ipf necessity be pure because he excels in
length and loudness of prayer, can show
WlAthe whites Of both his eyes in the
ervorsof his frenzy, and is an expert in
Iinging the ~doxology. Let every citizen
HHtand equal before the law.
RThe Record does not believe that any
bb has been put up on Healy. 1t does
! lot believe the intimations of Gray and
gkoifett, that Judge Winchester, States
attorney Register and Sheriff Donnelly
ave swerved from the line Of duty. 1t
Efpes not believe that q dozen men in
glther Burleigh county faction would
Observation-Disclosures to make q convictout
Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1892-02-12

of a citizen they knew to be innocent.
1t does not believe that Gray and Moffet
can see any further into Healy's heart
than any n else, and hence can not say
whether OR not he did as charged in the
indictment.
If the Record had limitless power for
about half a day it would settle the mat
ter-at least to the satisfaction of all of
the Slopeites down this way who have
expressed themselves
l. Let Nj. Healy off scot free, because,
if guilty of bribery, he did no more than
was done at wholesale by both sides in
Burleigh county during the fall campaign
of 80.
2. All join in sending to the 'pen" the
NEXT man who offers a valuable consider
alton in exchange for votes.
8. Nolle pros. the ckse against Mason,
as he was seduced by Gray to play spy
and informer, when the latter was HIM
self a whiskey expert and we'll qualified
to do his own dirty work. Gray and not
Moson is to blame for the latter's trials
and fluctuations.
4. Pardon Swenson under promise
that he breed no more unregistered
Poland Chinas, for the reason that he
was but an unfortunate devotee of a live
stock industry which still thrives in
North Dakota.
5. Provide old Gray with some legiti-
mate and visible means of support, to
the end that those who reached Bis
marck before him may not be considered
obstacles to his success, and therefore
villains as a natural sequence.
6. Take sweet little Willie up on the
big hill near the quiescent artesian we'll,
ask him to cast his eye about the slope,
point out to him in the distance the fair
hills and Wales of Emmons county, where
the political jackknives are all closed.
Let him see that the world is bright and
beautiful, and that much of virtue, and
uprightness, and honor, dwells therein
even among the old-time pioneers. Tell
him to sing loudly of the glories Of his
chosen region, but lowly of his own petty
personal woes. Inform him that when
he has blown in thousands of dollars for
press dispatches; paid tens of thousands
in wages to citizens; invested a small
torture in type, presses and other mate
rial; quit whining and begun to seek
patronage through merit-when he has
done these things, the people of the
Missouri slope will be pleased to see his
paper get a pull at the public teat.
Granted the temporary power afore-
said, a condition might be established
under which, instead of endless r%uctions
therein, the citizens of the slope metropo-
lis who have material interests at stake
could get together again and do some,
thing toward resuming the city's posi-
ton of leadership in an organized effort
to direct immigration toward the best
country for mixed farming and stock
raising within the boundaries of the
commonwealth.

genial parson escaped the "smart tricks
that were perpetrated on all alike
without regard for race, color or previous

manent officers we're elected as follows:
President-Harvey Harris.

The president was instructed to select
an executive committee of seven, and
such other committees as he might deem
necessary. The question of a hall was
discussed, and Chairman DePuy re-
ported that a room over the Capital
bank could be had for SIS a month, and
another over the First National bank for
the same price. The committee was in
structed to look into the matter further
to find out if the city hall couldn't be
used for the present-and report at next
meeting.
Several communications we're received
and referred-one from the Chicago Dry
Goods Reporter, wanting statistics for a
special issue; another in relation to i'm
migration understanding to know
what ind icements this country offered.
A communication from Salt Lake City,
giving the report of the irrigation con-
gress, and asking endorsement of the
resolution petitioning congress to grant
to the states the said lands for irrigation
purposes. This was considered an i'm
portant measure, and on motion of Mr..
Hare it was referred to a special COM
mittee to report at next meeting. The
chair appointed Messrs. Hare, Baker,
Jewell, Gage and Braithwaite.
The meeting adjourned to meet next
Monday, the 18th, at o'clock-place to
be named by president and published.
