behind his back try to cinch him by
Withdrawing your patronage or try to
starve him out by enlisting others in

the publishing of a paper will be just
what the people make it. A generous
support will allow a publisher to
print good paper; meagre one,
and you had better have no paper at
all, because a community is judged
by its paper. These are facts that
over forty years experience has taught
US.

A Back Number.

Last week completed my work on
THE PIONEER. I have sold out, and
am on file as back number. Before
dropping the pencil. I wish to say to
the citizens of Bottineau County in
general, and the readers of this paper
in particular, that have sold the
paper because another man wanted it
more than I, and not because I want
to leave the place. I like the country
and the people-nost of them. They
have treated me royalty and I shall
alway consider nothing too good for
them. I shall stay right in Botti-
neau, unless the hand Of Providence
plainly points me somewhere else,
believing as do, shat it is not the
part Of grateful citizen to desert a
place in the hour Of need merely be-
cause the "pap" has ceased to flow.
But it is less Of myself and more of
the new proprietor / wish to speak.
Mr.. j. E. Britton, hate Of Edgeley,
Lamoure County, n. D., will here
after mold the policy OF THE PIo-
NEER, and for him I bespeak even a
larger patronage than Lhavc been ac-
corded. He was pioneer Dakotan
when we were a territory, and is a
veteran journalist. His ability as a
writer is undoubted, and his facilities
are so much more extensive than were
mine that he can publish paper Of
which any town might be proud. I
hope the business men of the town
will appreciate their paper as they
never have done. That they will look
upon it as an institutioH to be heartily
supported "pro bono publico," and
not tool in the hands of faction.
Let. me add word Of warning. There
is great and growing tendency to
pass by the business men of the town
and send all our ready money to the
large business centers. This course
persisted in will ruin both town aud
country, and measures should be taken
to reduce it to minimum. Now, |
know of no better way to do it than
by liberal and intelligent patronage
of the lone paper on the part of both
merchants and farmer Hoping that
all my friends will come and see me
often as Of yore, l remain, yours,

THE PIONEER, under its new
management, hastens to congratulate
Hon. Geo. B. Winship, of The Grand
Forks Herald, upon his appointment as
oil inspector Of the State, and its per-
sonal friend, Gov. Roger Allin, for the
recognition of the press in SO happy
an appointment. -,
The Bottineau pioneer. (Bottineau, N.D.) 1885-1895, 1895-03-09

THoUaH at late day, but the first
opportunity that has presented itself
to the new management of The PIo-
NEER, the editor wishes to pay his
respects to the present State admin
istration. To Gov. Allin, Lieut. Gov
Worst, Secretary Dahl, Auditor
Briggs, Treasurer Nichols, Insurance
Comr Fancher, Comr. of Agricul-
ture Laughlin, Attorney General
Cowan, to the competent and talented
Superintendent of Public Instruction,
Miss Emma F. Bates, and to Messrs.
Curric, Keyes land Wamberg of the
Railroad Commission, not forgetting
its Secretary, Bro. Philan, he sends
his best congratulations, with the
hope that the boys and the girl may
be happy and enjoy life at its best.
The PIONEER feels convinced that
their administration will be wise,
economical and patriotic, and as its
editor personally labored hard to place
them as, individuals, in control of the
helm Of State, he feels that an en-
dorsement at this first opportunity to
them as the State administration from
his position as newspaper editor, will
not be out Of place. That they will
have our strongest support goes with
out saying, and that the people of the
State builded wisely in putting them
into Office in the "well done thou
good and faithful servants" at the end
of their term will be so overwhelming
that their bitterest opponents in the
late campaign will join in the chorus.
TO Miss Bates especially THE PIONEER
pays its best respects, and to the
noblest Roman of them all. that tried
and true Scotchman, Roger Allin, i,
sends its most sincere compliments.
May they all live long and prosper.

The above informs the patrons and
readers of The PIONEER of the change
in its proprietorship and editorship.
THANK Mr.. .McCandless fer his
good. words of commendation and hope
to merit the good will and friendship
of the people of the town and county.
I would rather let the paper speak for
itself in the future than utter any
words of what will be done.
First, the paper will be a home
paper.
Second, county paper.
Third, NEWS paper.
Fourth, Republican paper.
AS to the latter, while entertaining
strong Republican political opinions,
we hope to be not offensive to those
who entetain different political views.
We accord to every man his right to
his political opinions, and only de.
mand the same right for ourself.
While we may differ politically il
will be in. a party measure, and mot
personally. What we discuss politi.
cally will be done in party spirit
on principles which we believe to be
right--apd not with an object to make
it: personal. We believe in the prin'
ciples Of the Republican party, and as
a. true Republican we can honor and
respect true Democrat. For the
Populist party we have no regard
whatever. As party it cannot point
tq single act done, when it had the
power, for the betterment of the
people. It's reforms are visionary.
They look we'll on paper but will moi
bear the test of practice. Whereve,
I it has been in power, when its!lterm
Of Office has expired it has been rele
gated to the rear by the people. i
has gone the way of the Greenback
party, Of which it is the offshoot, never
to return. It is "back number =
using Mr.. Candless' heading. In OIL
own State it will take years to recover
from its administration Of the past two
years, and we would rather draw the
veil than discuss the question.
The national Democratic party and
the national Republican party are the
two great parties that.will WELD Tho
destinies Of this country, side issues Il
the contrary notwithstanding Tht
Popnlist party was side issue.
We wish this understood. Every
- onasn and g r n .iixsa,

perfectly riddled with the borer, and
upon examination I find the entire
heart of such trees sour and evidently
on the q uick road to decay. What is
to be done with such trees? Can they
be saved? Will they live year or
two and then die? Will the shell
of live wood and bark be enough
to maintain the tree and en-
able it to bear crop of fruit, or is it
best to cut them down at once and de-
pend upon q new sprout for o future
treeP The settlement of this one ques-
ton would be worth many thousands
of dollars to those who now have trees
in just that condition, and it seems to
me that careful study of this ques-
ton is worth the attention of our an
thorities, even il they are only able to
lay up information for the future. L
have found but few groves in the
counties named that have any fruit
upon them and but few where there
will be fruit next sesson-1896-but
If we have no severe cold this season
there will be an increase of cropin 1897,
and in 1898 still larger crop, as from
all the information 1 have been able to
gather, sprouts from bearing seeding
trees will begin to bear in three years,
and as many growers will not bud, We
may expect some fruit from the young
trees. In the meantime, our citizens
must learn to live without the orange
groves, and if they learn that lesson
they will become q more prosperous
people than ever.

THE SULTAN YIELDS
WILL SIGN THE PLAN OF RE.
FORM IN ARMENIA
As Demanded by England, FrSScs
and Russia.

A special cable dispatch from Con-
stantinople is to the effect that Sa;o
Pasha has accepted the scheme for re-
form in Armenia drawn up by Great
Britain, France and Russia, andit nov
awaits the signature of the sultan.
The scheme is almost identical with
the proposals of last May, in sub
stance, that the governors and vice
governors of Van Erzeroum, Swan,
Kharut and Trebisond, be Christians
or Mussulmsns, according to the in
clination of the population; but either
the governor or vice governor is to be
Christian. and the appointments are
to be confirmed by the powers. Local
and state officials are to collect the
taxes and enough money is to be re-
tanned before it is forwarded to Con-
stantinople to pay the expenses of the
local administration. Complete changes
will be made in the judicial system.
Torture will be abolished.
The police will be composed Of
Christians and Turks equally, and the
laws against compulsory conversions
to Islamism will be strictly enforced.
The ambassadors of the powers ex-
pect that the whole question will be
finally settled during the course of the
week by the PRONUNCIATION Of an impe-
rial decree. Contrary to general ex-
pectstiOn the high commissioner who
will be charged with the execution Of
this scheme of reform will be Chris
tian. This was the hardest pill for
the Porte to swallow and for a long
time it threatened to bring about the
most serious complications.

airy 10, 1921. The title then descended
to the plaintiffs rs follows: Joseph
Fish died unmarried and without chill
dren, q short time prior to the cession
of the Floridas by Srsin to the United
States. His only heir ct law was his
mother, Sarah Fish, who died in 1926,
interstate, Her only heir at law was
her granddaughter, Jessie B. Perpall.
who shortly thereafter intermarried
with Charles B. Furman, of Charles
ton, 8. @. She died intestate, leaving
as heirs at law her husband and one
child, William Furman, the son died in
infancy in 1886, leaving his father as
his only heir at law. Old man Charles

whereby the said Anastasis island
property, as part of his real estate, was
devised one-balf to his nephew,
Charles NJ. Furman, one-fourth to his
nephew, Richard K. Furman, and the
remaining one-fourth to his grand

The viii was admitted to probate in
Charleston county, South Carolina,

tie, conveyed this land under the
swamp and overlooked land act to the
state of Florida, and by the state.

land have been conveyed to some of

WARD SKIPS OUT. 4.
AMemphis Man Gets Away with Three
Hundred Thousand Dollars.

A Memphis Man Gets Away with Three
Hundred Thousand Dollars.
A. h. Ward, secretary, treasurer
and manager of the Memphis, Tenn,
Barrel and Heading Company, has
been missing several days. Ward is
wanted because of the liberty he is
faid to have taken with the names of
rich relatives and business friends,
which were potent with bankers.
Later developments in the shortage
of Ward show that his fUrgeries will
amount to about $500, 900. Of this
$75, 900 is held by local banks, $40
600 in New York city, $4,000 in
Chicago and the remainder by firms
and individuals in Memphis. Ward
enjoyed unlimited confidence in bust
ness and social circles and he secured
money on forged notes from at least q
dozen widows in amounts running
from 81. 900 to $50, 900. He also Dor
rowed the savings of the employees of
the firm of which be was general man
ager and gave them spurious notes for
1t. No one knows what he did with
the money, but there are no traces of
his gambling, specializing or dissipa-
ting. The best information to be had
shows that half of the money was Sc
cured within the last six months.
Wand and his wife are en- route for

THE SALE CONFIRMED.
Decree Rendered In the Central and
the Savannah and Western Deals.

Decree Rendered In the Central and
the Savannah and Western Deals.
The sale of the Central RailrOad and
Banking Company of Georgia and the
Savannah and Western railroad was
confirmed by Judge Don A. Pardee in
the United States circuit court in At
lnnta Thursday morning. The coun-
sci interested were all present in per-
son or by proxy.
Judge Pardee looked into the terms
Of the sale and finding that it was made
III accordance with the terms of the
Decree confirmed the sale of both
roads, and ordered that the special
masters who made the sale, Messrs.
+. A. Angler, of the Savannah and
Western, and A. E. Buck and George
". Owens, of the Central, execute a
deed conveying the property to the
purchasers of the two roads. The Cen
trail was sold for $4,000, 900 and the
Savannah and Western for 81, 500, 600.
This action of Judge Pardee COM
pletes the last act in the drama that
began when the Central WIS put into
the hands of u recsiver two years ngo.
The property has passed out of the
hands of the parties who built up the
old road, and it now becomes an out
side corporation.
The question of attorney sfees did
not come up, and it is not probable
that 1T will DO decided while Judge
PHrdee is in Atlanta, as the counsel
have not put in their applications as
vet
