The Coming Chautauqua.

Rev. Eugene May came in from Fargo
Tuesday, aud visited Spiritwood lake
He says the prospects for sue
cessful assembly at the lake in July are
very encouraging, and that the event
promises to be pleasant one in every
respect. Unexpected interest is mani
tested all over the state, and letters are
received daily inquirlng for particulars.
A number of good speakers have been
secured, and an interesting program is
being arranged to cover the entire ten
days convention.
Speaking Of the rumor that mosquitoes
might be found at ths lake during the
camp, Mr.. May says that statement was
made on their circulars, and put IN quota
tion marks, as coming from one of your
most reliable citizens. Are your folks
liable, Qie able) instead of reliable? I
want to certify that there we're no flies
on the lake. nor mosquitoes there. at the
time Of my visit, that cold rainy day,
May 9th. Did I see any mosquitoes?
Did anybody see any? No one. Are
there now? Not likely. What may be
by and by, I cannot say. Don. throw
cold water on us-throw it on the mos
quitoes."

Thanks for the Honor.

E. j. Gleason, delegate-elect to Mlnne-
apolls from this judicial district, prints
the following in his paper, the Spirit
wood BuRle, of current date:
"Thanks for the distinguished honor
Of representing the great state of North
Dakota at the republican national con.
vention. The editor desires to thank
majority of the delegates from the Fifth
judicial district, who made it possible for
the Grand Forks convention to elect
him. Thanks to our newspaper friends
who may possibly be accused of stretch
ing point in saying SO many hattering
things in such hearty manner. Above
all, thanks to the Stutsman county dele
gates, who. putting all seltishness to the
rear, worked as one man for Stutsman
people. As token of what steady,
straight, disinterested pulling will ac-
complish, and as mark for future dele.
cations to state conventions to attain
let it be remembered that Stutsman
secured the president of the republican
leagues of the state, the temporary chair
man of the state convention, and one
delegate to the national convention"

DID NOT TAKE PART.

School Children Failed to Appear in
the Memorial Day Parade. A Citi.
zen's Protest.
citizen hnd patron of the public
schools thinks that the failure of the
school children to appear IN the Memo
rial day procession Monday, is wrong.
The national holiday was established, as
far as the schools are concerned, for the
purpose of allowing the children to take
part in the exercises of the day. It is
said no effort was made to inform them
of the necessity Of meeting at some point
prepared to join in the PROCESSION, and as
far as known, no instruction as to what
memorial day is intended for, has been
given them. If they know the meaning
of the day 1t is not learned at school. In
other towns the school children take part
IN the parade, but in jamestown their
absence was noted by all observers and
unfavorably commented upon. In the
opinion OF many, it would be we'll for
the school board to find out the reason
for the children not taking part in the
exercises and remedy it for the future

Court IN Eddy County,

District court was in session last week
at New Rockford The Transcript says:
On Tuesdays train from the south Judge
Rose and Stenographer Ed. Rose, with
Attorneys r. A. Bill and Fredrus Bald
win, stepped to the platform and in
few minutes the grind at the court house
was under motion. The calendar was
very light and court adjourned sine die
Wednesday afternoon. There was no
jury and the few cases we're very tame.
The principal case was against Auditor
F. O. Getchell for not signing the
warrant in payment of the county jail
cells. There was quite little furry
over the talks of the attorneys. The
judge held with Getchell and denied the
mandamus. The payment for
the cells is yet a ques-
ton of the future and makes nice
little law point. The company putting
in the cells cannot sue the county COM
missioners for the pay, for they are on
record as being willing to 'liquidate the
claim, the bill already having been
allowed. County Treasurer L. G.. Willis
was agent for the cell company, advanced
the freight, etc., but has an action
against them and an attachment on the
boiler iron boxes for his outlay. What
the outcome will be cannot be prophe-
sled at this writing. The liquor cases
against Wiemals and VanGilchr1st were
dismissed, and the balance of the docket
continued until next term.

in the market now both north and west
but it will only be question. OF few
years and good crops until the $50 mark
is reached. Jake Lowell who is one of
the best real estate men in Fargo says
these school lands ought never to have
been sold, and as member OF the con.
stitutional convention he tried to have it
in the constitution that they were tc be
leased only, for he says they would lease
for 80 an acre, and that would give a
better income than to sell the land at
$40 or $50 per acre. Is there nigger in
the woodpile? Time will tell, but no
lapse of time will ever make that valid
which is void. And If they have strayed
from the path the best thing they can
do is to stop till they find it or there will
be no end to the trouble they will bring"

Rev. Father Reilly's Funeral.

Fargo Argus: All that IS mortal of
Father Reilly was deposited in the little
church building Monday night and yes
terday was laid in their last resting place
by loving hands. Every familiar object
about the altar was draped in deep
mourning casting dark shadow over
the casket, which was placed in front of
the altar. There were large number of
friends who visited the church in the
evening to take a last look at the de-
parted priest. Yesterday morning
requiem mass was sung at 10 o'clock by
the Fargo and jamestown united cholrs.
Bishop Stanley said the last sad rites
and the audience was greatly moved.
The bishop made few remarks but was
too much affected by the loss to say
much.
The pail bearers were Rev. Dean Col
Inns of Fargo, Father Dillon OF Glendale,
Father Kennedy Of Grafton, Father Con-
sidine of Mimic, Father Wilhelm of
Michigan City.

Big Bluster Talk.

St. Thomas Times (rep.): Prohibition is
asuccess in North Dakota. The law was
framed to drive ont the saloon. It has
accomplished it's object. To be sure there
are some violations Of the law and many
prosecutions, but that does not prove
that the law is failure. No statute is
proof against violation, but the penalty
attached brings the violation down to
the minimum. Those who insist that
the prohibition law Is a failure are will
fully lying or ignorant of existing facts

this morning and decided to favorably
consider such, but no amount was
specified. There is a rumor that the
president of the board, Hon. r. s.
Tyler, will be asked to re-
sign, also that Colonel Plummer
has sent in his resignation to the COVER

Mckenzie had informed him recently
that he had at no time intended to

ILLEGALITY UNQUEsTIoNED.

How are the School Land Sales 10 be
Adjusted? Trouble Ahead.
w. H. Doughty Of Ypsilantl, the farmer
who recently called attention to the
illegal sale of school lands in the Red
river valley, was in the city day or two
ago. He says that last January he called
attention to the illegality of the sale at
the time when there was hitch in the
advertising of the lands. This notice he
forwarded to a Fargo paper, but Is not
certain whether it was published or not
If so no attention was paid to it by the
officials whose duty it is to protect the
school lands of the state, and who are
supposed to be governed by law in their
official capacity, at least. As the evi-
dence accumulates it looks as if the sale
of the school lands was made deliberate
ly, with the full knowledge that it was
contrary to law. 1t appears as if the
board decided to take it's chances on
nobody discovering its lack of authority
and trust to luck for the result, if any,
one did. Speaking of the fine land in
the Red river valley: such as was sold by
the school board, Mr.. Doughty says:
Il have just returned from Fargo, and
I have never been more impressed with
the wonderful! fertility AMI beauty of the
Red river lands. There is a greenness
and luxuriapce about the grain and grass
that few soils can impart. They are the
finest body of lands anywhere this side OF
heaven.
The school land sales? Yes, 1 talked
with good many people about them,
and of course there were differences of
opinion. Those who had investigated the
question were satisfied of their ille-
gality. Those who had not thought it
must be all right or our state officers
would not have made the sale. One
asked me this connundrum: Why is the
university and school land board like ne
cessity? Because it knows no law
Opinions differ in regard to the prices
obtained also. Some thought they sold
pretty we'll, and then they would men
ton the big prices that few pieces sold
for-s4O, s3S and $50, etc.-but they said
nothing about the other prices that bring
the average down to less than $40 an acre.
Col. Morton says these Red river lands
are worth $50 an acre now, and they will
bring it too within very short time.
There is, OF course, much cheaper land

Parade Participated in by the
Band, Co. H., G. A. r. Post
and w. r. C.
Senator Worst Delivers a Pat
riotic Address at the
Court House.
Something More Said on the
Subject Of School Land
Sales.

Yesterday was more generally observed
as holiday in jamestown than in any
previous year, and the weather being
favorable the usual memorial services
passed off very successfully. Nearly all
the business houses closed at noon, and
a few displayed the national colors in
their windows. There was large turn
out to witness the parade IN the after
noon and to hear Senator Worst's splen.
did address at the court house.
The procession formed on Fifth avenue
at l:30, and was composed Of the James
town band, company H, N. D. N. G., a
small body OF school children, Seward
Post G. A. r., and the Women's Relief
Corps. The band, under the leadership
OF Prof Tunstall, rendered excellent
music and made good impression, not
withstandins the organization has been
dormant for about year. The militia
boys were out in force and appeared
to good advantage under Captain
Flint. +. Calklns had charge
of the school children, but they
we're too few in numbers to attract
favorable notice. Seward post had fifty
mem bers in line, with Post Commander
Hodge at their head. The W. r. @
ladies also turned out we'll, and took a
creditable part in the days parade.
At the court house, which was soon
packed to it's fullest capacity, the regular
Decoration Cay program was carried ont.
General orders were read by G. n.
Cowles, followed by the impressive
memorial services of the G. A. r. Sew
eraI appropriate musical selections were
rendered, and State Senator Worst OF
Emmons county, delivered the GRAFTON.
It is spoken of as a mastery effort,
abounding in historical facts, original
sentiments aud broad spirit Of Ameri-
canism. Mr.. Worst is an eloquent
speaker, and held the close attention of
his auditors for fully an hour. The
benedictlon WAS pronounced by Rev. s.
E. Ryan of the NJ. E. church.
During the forenoon, the committee
on decoration o: graves carried out this
part of the program.

Judge Rose. It was case of the usual
blind pig variety. The defendant was
charged with selling liquor, and upon q
hearing before one magistrate the case.
was dismissed. The defendant being
again charged with the same offense, was
brought before another magistrate, but
claimed he could not be held in bail for
the same offense by different magis-
trate. Judge Rose decided otherwise,
and the defendant was bound over to ap-
pear for future trial
