Fargo Argus: A number of repre-
sentative citizens Of Valley City and
Barnes county held a meeting at the
Kindred hotel on Wednesday evening,
when it was resolved to tender a recep-
ton to the state legislature and state
officers-elect. December 9Th was the
day set, and the various committees
selected to arrange preliminaries. 1t is
to be a non-partizan demonstration.
The new blizzard flag hung suspended
from its staff Friday, %ominously por-
tending the approaching storm. Several
inches of snow fell in the forenoon, and
there was a lull of several hours, to
allow the thermometer to drop several
degrees, and then the snow began to fall
again. At about this time the wind
took part in the general chill. and the
blizzard flag smiled ~serenely and
chuckled IL told you So"
Fargo Forum: In the Yorke case Mr..
Hildreth, the plaintiffs attorney, OK
cepts to each part of the decree and his
exceptions we're allowed by the court.
He says the case will be appealed to the
supreme court at an early date. The
present situation is rather embarrassing
for Mr.. Yorke as he now has two wives
and also a case pending before congress
for reinstatement in the naval service
and back pay since '87, which this decree
may affect seriously.
County Treasurer Dunn received a
letter Friday which bore the ear
marks of rather rough usage while in
transit. It was sadly besmeared and
despatched with dirt, and gave signs of
having been thoroughly water soaked,
for the ink on the superscription had
been wetted and run in an almost illegi-
BILE blot. Its sad condition was ex-
planned by a few words which had been
stamped on it's back; "In wreck at
Ada, Neb., November Odd"
Washburn Leader: Deputy U. S.
Marshal Murdoch Mckenzie visited
Washburn and Stanton Wednesday,
serving subpenas on certain county
officers in the Northern Pacific tax cases,
which are to come up again before the
United States district court at Fargo on
the I'd of January next. These cases we
believe are those concerning the 1889
tax, which could not be settled at the
time our county with several others
amicably settled all other taxes in dis
pute with the railroad company.
Grand Forks Plaindealer: There's
n republican over at Bismarck whose
outgoing will be regretted by a good
many people-republicans and demo-
Gratis alike-because he's a royal good
fellow and a good official. Auditor
Currie is on the wrong tack politically,
but he isn't beaten personally and will
&c out of the Office followed by universal
regret. He will be succeeded by an able
man, of course, and the work of the
Office will not suffer, but it's too bad
Archie's political associations were not
different.
An Independent: There has been a
great deal of quiet rejoicing among the
Independents of Burleigh county over
the defeat for the legislature of William
Barry of Grand Forks, chairman of the
state central independent committee. It
was this gentlemen who attempted, with
the aid of a bakers half dozen of as
sorted politicians in Bismarck, to break
up the Independent organization in Bur
leigh county and sell out the party to
the democrats-a proceeding that so
Disguised the rank and file of both par
ties that they voted the republican
ticket, and 10 gave Burke a majority in
the county instead of Shortridge, which
would not have been>the case otherwise.
George McCabe in Jamestown Alert:
Ex-Gov. Church of Washington, will be

Church was chairman Of the democratic
state convention and was the favorite
