A crowded house greeted the men,
bers of the Catholic choir at their
musicale Saturday night. The readings
OF Miss Strauss we're pleasant features
of the evening, and the dancing OF the
Misses Baudoin and Ryan was quite

in their efforts to please, and the even

EDITOR TRIBUNE: I notice in the last
issue of the Settler that I am one of
Tibbils' bondsmen. I wish to state that
it is utterly false, and would state further
that l am very much surprised that a
man who holds such prominent position
in the churches and processes to be a
good Christian man would be guilty of
such falsehoods. Yours truly,

River Breaks I'm.

The passing out of the ice in the Mis-

time, renders interesting a comparison of
the time Of the present break with that
in past years. The TRIBUNE publishes

when the river broke up as early, if not

break up until April 10Th.

How It Stands,

Hon. Joseph Hare made a brief talk tc
the Globe, on his return. from st. Paul
which, he tells the TRIBUNE, Is his
opinion Of the matter of the surveyor
generalship, anent which so much has
been said: II have spent the past six
weeks in Washington, largely for rest
from business and for recreation. Yes,
my name has been mentioned in connec-
tion with the Office of surveyor general
of North Dakota; but l have no assur-
ance that / will be appointed, and nc
reason to assume that my chances are
better than those Of the other applicants.
In my judgment the recommendation of
Senator Roach will settle the question,
for his standing with the administration
is such that his recommendation is
almost equivalent to an appointment

Resolutions.

The United States grand jury passed
the following resolutions prior to adj
journment, and presented them to the
court:
The United States grand jury late and
now in session at Bismarck, respectfully
present to the court the resolutions passed
by said body at said session, a copy of
which is hereto annexed, to-wit:
Resolved, That the sincere thanks of
said grand jury are due, and are hereby
rendered to the United States officials
whose duties have occasioned more or less
business intercourse upon their part, re-
spectively, with said body, and particularly
to c. A. Price. United States marshal for
the district OF North Dakota, Edgar w.
Camp. United States attorney for said dis
trict, and w. P. Miller, assistant United
States attorney for said district, for the aid
and assistance rendered by such officials,
to said body in and during said session.
Resolved, further, whereas, 1t appears to
said body that proper and efficient exami-
nation of ma tional banks within the state,
by the officials, whose duty it was to make
such examinations, would certainly have
prevented large losses. both to some of
each banking associations, as we'll as to
depositors of said banking associations
which appear to have been sustained by
them, the said grand jury does hereby e.
press the opinion, that timely and efficient
examinations of such banking associations
in this state has not been made by such
officials for several years, at least, and
thai large losses to such associations and
depositors thereof have occurred that
timely and efficient examinations would
have prevented, and that said officials have
been grossly derelict in the performance of
their duties in such respect.

Why Grows Majority Was SO Large.
Judge Bowen, who returned from his
trip to Pennsylvania last week, says that
in all of the time he has been IN Pennsyl-
vania, business was never so nearly dead
as it is at present. "To one who knew
Pennsylvania as it was" said Judge
Bowen, lit is difficult to believe the
present business ~stagnation. OF course,
business is picking up a little now, but
that is because stocks are everywhere ex-
hausted and enough must be manufact.
ured to supply what trade there is, but
beyond this amount none Of the manu-
facturers will go, will they until the
question of tariff is settled"

Those who attended the Masonic SOC.
ial at Masonic hall last evening, report
that the occasion was the most thorough
~ pleasant of any which have been held
so far. Notwithstanding the rather
disagreeable sleet which was falling last
evening, the crowd was large, about
eighty being present, and none were
kept away by the storm. Judge Thomas
and otner officials of the court were in
attendance, and all we're entertained by
the amusenents peculiar to these socials
until late in the evening, when a deli
clous lunch was served, after which a
round of dancing closed the evening
The festivities continued until after mid

East bound trains have been delayed
for the past few days by extensive wash
outs in Montana, the Tongue river being
on the rampage and the track this side
of Miles City suffering in consequence.
From reports which have been received,
the damage done is considerable, ice be-
ing piled up on the track in some places
to the depth Of eight feet, and for a dis
lance of 200 to 300 yards. No through
trains have arrived from the west since
Friday, and none will arrive until to-
night, passengers and baggage being

however until last night, the court at
tending to some of the matters incident
al to the closing of the term, in the after
noon.
The term of court has been a quite
long one, and the number of criminal
cases heard was quite extensive, although
the pleading guilty of a number of those
against whom indictments had been
found expedited matters to a consider
able extent. AS it is, several Of the cases
which were on the calendar will be heard
at the next term of court in Fargo. The
case of Harrington, who was found guilty
of passing counterfeit money, will come
up again at that time upon the issue of
an insufficient Indictment. Some new
developments in the case against Hatton
will be looked into before sentence is
passed, and the cases against the Lloyds,
in connection with the failure of their
Jamestown bank last summer, will be
heard at the Fargo term.
The jurors and witnesses returned
home yesterday afternoon. Judge
Thomas, Clerk Montgomery, Marshal
Price and Deputy Daggett remained
over until to-day, however, engaged with
the work of finishing up, and will leave
on the delayed train tonight. Judge
Thomas goes to Minneapolis, where he
begins a term of court March Goth.
Marshal Price returns east from what
will be the last term of United States
court at which he will be interested as

attitude of School Superintendent James
in selecting teachers. Some of those is-

teachers and in carrying out the school
work. They held meeting Monday and
notified the superintendent of their views

he had net intended 10 act without theis
advice. There is no doubt about the ex-
istence OF dissatisfaction among interested
persons as regards the present school man

TACOMA, May 23--fSpecial. The agi-
tation among the Coxeyises regarding the
payment Of about $4,000 for deputy
United States marshals TO prevent the In
dustriais from riding on Northern Pacific
trains has been partially met by the an
nouncement Of semi-executlve officials
that the road will eventually pay the mar
shals. Judge Hanford. OF the Federal
district court however. says: The only
order have issued IN the matter Was to
have the railroad transport and provide
quarters and sustenance for the marshals.
This did because the marshal had no
funds to provide for the men. The qnes-
tion Of paying the men has not come be-
fore me. l cannot at present say who will
pay them. There Is \ statute authorizing
