A little bird whispered the following story
in our ear the other day:
A society young man, whose home is
neither Bottineau nor yet Omemee-but a
little of both-started one evening on horse
back from the latter town, with faculties
somewhat b%eclouded by alkali water-or
something. In plain, brutal English, he was
blind drunk. 1t was dark and the horse,
left to himself, wandered into the wrong
road, went south, passed Willow City with
out seeing it, aud finally dumped his rider
in the mud. The fellow staggered to bis
feet and managed to run against a house
which he entered without making any noise,
and finding a bed, tumbled In. Waking the
next morning, he thought his time had come
when he found a corpse in bed with him. 1t
seems there had been a death in the house
the day previous and-hs had found it.
| When we heard it We felt sorry-for the
corpse.

On the 18th, of May a very quiet wedding
occurred at the residence Of our Genial Con-
ductor NJ. A. Dcnney. The contracting
parties being Mr.. Orrin l.. Denney and Miss
Isabella Wetherel the Rev. w II. Wood
officiating. None being present but the
members Of the family and a few intimate
friends. After the marriage ceremony was
performed the groom took his departure to
Montana, where he had secured a situation
which required his immediate presence. He
intends fitting up q residence for his bride
who will follow him shortly. Both parties
are we'll and favorably known here and will
be greatly missed by the young folks in
Bottineau. We extend our congratulations
and wish them a long life of happiness and
many warm friends in their far off Western

Mr.. EDITOR.
About a year ago before you we're
absorbed Tin name only by the. at
that time, Democratic official organ. a
correspondent in your paper called at
tention to the men recommended and
manner in which they we're so recon-
mended by the Democratic County Com
mittee for Post Master and Customs
Officer at Bottineau. 1t called forth a pro-
clamation from the editor of that paper
to the faithful. I think it about time
another proclamation be issued from the
same source letting outsiders know why
these appointments have not been made.
/ understand Post Master General
Bissell has issued an order, the terms of
which would disqualify the party recon-
mended a year ago, and called for action
on the part of the Democratic County
Committee. An election is to be held
this fall 1.-TWO years after the election of
Grover Cleveland) and naturally the
Democrats of Bottineau County want to
know what they got by voting the Demo-
cratic ticket at that time and what can
be expected this year. If we are simply
voting each year to build up an aristo-
cracy of Office holders in this County.
it is time we realized what we are doing.
Don't imagine that I am in a hurry to
have you relieved. think your equal as
an efficient and courteous public officer,
would be hard to find. but Democracy
means the exemplifcation, development
and %perptuation of certain principles.
or it means nothing, and the adherents of
those principles are entitled to all the
encouragement and advantage to be gained
by having the public affairs administered
by Democrats.
Yours Respectfully, &-

it is bathed in a flood of light and man is

EDITOR PIONEER: Will you kindly
find space to insert the following COM
muication in your paper, as it dwells on
a subject which will interest all devoted
to the cause of humanity, as we'll as the
safety of the general public,
l wish to call attention to the senseless
practice among certain persons in our
community who from want of better judg-
ment attach tin cans. pals etc. to the tails
of horses. cattle and dogs and then turn
them loose on the public highway, or in
fact seem Indifferent which direction they
take, so long as the rafting appendages
cause them in a frenzy of fear to 60 tear
ing madly over the prairie and thus satisfy
their craving for FUN (they call it SOY re-
CARELESS of the danger to the poor beast
or in fact to the public in general. With
in the last six months I myself have had
two runaways from this cause, in the first
case while working with four horses on a
cutaway harrow a dog with a tin-can tied
to his tail anne tearing over a hill and
ran right in among the horses, tormented
no doubt to a degree approaching mad
ness, as a natural consequence the horses
started to run, the dog continuing to run
at their side and thus urging them to a
greater speed and to become fairly crazy,
fortunately I succeeded in stopping them
before much damage was done. The second
instance was only last week, in this case a
poor unfortunate horse was the victim of
the cruelty, which noble man for whose
benefit the horse was created, had per-
petrated on him. The poor beast was just
about exhausted. and as he dragged him
self along, the can Ia large coal oil can)
humping him on the heels each step he
took, he showed an example of what cruel
devices an idle ignorant person is capable
of accomplishing. Result, four horses ran
away with narrows completely wrecking
them, I may be to blame in this case as I
let my horses stand alone for a minute
while l relieved the poor beast of his tor.
ment and thus had not hold of them when
they started, nevertheless it shows tc
what extreme danger ladies driving alone
on our highways are exposed, should they
be met by a horse or dog crazed by
fright which will probably run right TO,
their rig and cause a serious accident.

The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1894-12-10

Lincoln county, South Dakota, made and
delivered to Blair Bros. four promissory
notes for $3.50 each in payment for q
horse. The notes were made at Canton
and payable there. Blair Bros. sold the
notes to the Second National bank OF
Aurora, ILL.,, which bank brought suit
upon the notes IN the United States
court for the district OF South Dakota
and resulted in a verdict for the defend
ants. The defense vas that the horse
was worthless. Whether evidence in
support OF this defense was admissible
as against the plaintiff bank depended
upon the negotiability Of the notes. The
defense claimed that the use OF the
words, with exchange and costs of col
lection" 10 the notes destroyed their
their negotiability to such an extent
as to allow the defendants to set up
against the bank the same defense as
the makers OF the notes might have set
up against Blair Bros. Judge Edgerton
ruled in favor of the defense. The plain
tiff removed the case to the circuit court
of appeals and the case was argued at
st. Paul in October, 1884. On Decem-
Der Sd Judge Thayer of the court of APP
peals filed an opinion affirming the rul-
ing OF the court below. So that in
South Dakota the use OF the words
with exchange aud cost OF collection"
in a promissory note destroys its nego'ia-
bility to sLch an extent as to permit the
makers to set up the same defense
against an innocentsholder that he could
have set up against the original.
