In line with the agitation of the
scarcity of water in local lakes and
streams, the Grand Forks Herald says:
Comparatively few realize that about 40
per CEN of the water they see in the
Mississippi river at Minneapolis is water
that comes from the government reser-
voirs in nothern Minnesota. Still less
do they realize how much dependence is
placed on these reservoirs by navigators,
lumbermen and owners of mills using
water power. Since sometime last July
the reservoirs have been supplying the
water that goes to make up the big river,
and this week will probably see the end
of their work for this year. It is neces.
sary to keep a certain amount of water
in the reservoirs, and 1t is understood
that now that the navigation season is
practically over and the limit has been
reached the gates Of the reservoirs will
be closed by order of the government
engineer. There are four large reser-
voirs and a number of smaller les in
charge of the engineer, who opens their
gates early for the primary purpose of
helping navigation but incidentally to
help the loggers and mill owners. The
flow of water is constant. Early in the
season, when the logs are coming down,
the amount fine reservoir water is
nearer Copper cent than 40. The rise is felt
as far south as Dubuque, and the reser-
voirs are an immense benefit to the steam
boat owners. These facts, which are not
generally known OF understood even
here in the northwest, furnish useful
suggestions for the low water-level prob
lens Of our lakes and rivers and are in
line with those published by "Farmer
Wallace q few days ago.

UNDER a system Of high license, the
liquor traffic could be regulated, and in
such a way as to remov many Of its OBJ
%jectionable features. The TR1BuNE's
position on this subject is we'll known,
and it believes that the high license sys-
tenn is the best practical for the state.
It would do away with all this friction
and clashing which is going on about the
state now, and with spies and informers
who seem necessary under the present
reglme-and'yet who command no feel
ing other than one Of contempt.

REDEEMING THEIR PLEDGES.
In another column, the TRIBUNE
presents an outline Of the work which
has been done by the republican state
administration since the first Of January
last, in the way Of relieving the state Of
it's financial embarrassment, and putting
the treasury again upon its feet. The
condition Of the states finances when
the present administration took hold
hardly needs elaboratlon-it is notorious
The treasury was empty, the payment Of
expenses of state institutions was eight
months behind, there were bills unpaid
to the extent of $l35,000, the general
fund wa overdrawn, and the available
portion of the treasury was empty.
The situation was one which required
heroic measures on the part of the adj
minstration. Measures OF economy were
inaugurated in expenditures which we're
rendered necessary by the circumstances,
and while they have been criticised in
some quarters, the wisdom of the ad-
ministration cannot now but be admitted.
For as a result, the debt which was en-
forcedly contracted has been largely re-
duced, and the current expenses of gov
eminent, and Of the state institutions
are being paid up to date.
The promise of the republican party
last fall was of a clean, business-like and
economical administration. That prom
Use has been kept. The financial stand
ing Of the state is %reassuring, and the
close of the present administration will
see the state in o condition which will
speak we'll for the faithfulness and care
of it's officers. The record SO far made
is one at which the whole state may be
treasured, and of which its officers may
we'll be proud.

to hear and determine the case, and that
therefore it was not properly in the
supreme court of the United States.
That before it could properly come be-
fore the supreme court of the United
States, it must have first been passed
upon by the state supreme court on an
appeal from the Judgment of the district
court. ~
The contention of the petitioners at
torney IS, that the district court has no
right to issue an injunctional order on
an affidavit on information aud belief.
That the provision in section ID of the
prohibition law, which proves that a
search warrant MUST issue at the time Of
the issuance Of an Injunction providing
that on the return of the sheriff that he
has found intoxicating liquors or liquors
of any kind on the premises, he must
take into possession all such liquors and
the personal property found on the
premises, is unconstitutional, and that
the prohibition law further violates the
constitution in that tile act by it's terms
provides that buildings and real pro-
perty may be closed up and taken pos.
session by the sheriff, and held for an
indefinite length of time without any
provisions being made for service of any
notice or writ of any kind upon the
owner of the property, in case the owner
be other than the person in custody, and
makes no provision by which the owner
of the property may have his say in
court.
Had the case been decided upon it's
merits, it would in all probability have
been appealed to the supreme court of
the United States on the question of the
constitutionality of the prohibition law;
as it is however, if Oswald & Company,
the owners of the building formerly oc-
cupied by Pepke and who from
the evidence taken in the su-
preme court yesterday, are The
real parties in interest, desire to test the
question further, g new case will have to
be brought, and that, too, by some per-
son whom they are not paying So per
day to remain nominally in the posses
sion Of the sheriff as a prisoner, as was
shown to be the case by testimony taken
before the court in the case decided yes
terday. The supreme court has once
for all settled n question, and that is
that it will not be made an avenue
through which questions of law may be
tested, unless there is an actual and bona
fde plaintiff and defendant in a proceed
i%ng.regularly and properly instituted.
The attorney general moved the court
that the prisoner, Emil j. Pepke be dis
charged from custody on the grounds
that the writ under which he was now
being held was FUNCTUs oFFIc1o, no re.
mittitur having been issued from the SUI
preme court ofthe United States recon

the sheriff of Walsh county. That if
the issuance of such writ was necessary,
then the prisoner was not properly in
custody, and If the issuance of such
writ was not necessary, then the pris-

There are other selections of lands
now being considered which it is ex-
pected will be approved to the state
soon. ~
the grant to the university by section IA
of the act granting seventy-two sections,
amounts to 46,O80 acres, and the grant
for public buildings made by section - of
the act granting fifty sections amounts
to $4,000 acres, and the grant for the agri.
cultural college made by sections 16 and
II of the act, amounts to 100000 acres.
A question is o pending before the
secretary of the interior, which involves
a large quantity of public lands in North
Dakota. These lands are situated in the
north and south indemnity belts of the
grant to the Northern Pacific railroad
company and they have been selected by
the railroad company as indemnity in
place of lands lost to the railroad grant
in the state of Wisconsin.
The question has been raised whether
the railroad company is entitled to a
krant of land in Wisconsin as claimed
by the company. These lands in Wis
consin are expected from the grant by
reason of prior occupation and the rail
road company has selected the lands in
North Dakota as indemnity. If it
should be held that the company is not
entitled to the lands in Wisconsin the
selections must fail and said lands will
become public lands of the United
States. Many of these lands have been
sold by the company. and in such cases
the purchasers would doubtless be pro-
tected under the law, but lands which
have not been sold will, in event of such
a decision, become subject to disposal
under the public land laws and so sub.
ject to selection by the state. OF course
it is impossible to know what the decision
of the secretary will be. If he should
decide in favor of the railroad company,
holding that it has a grant in Wisconsin,,
the selection in North Dakota will hold
and that will end the matter, but he may
hold the other way in which event the
state might be able to select some valu-
able land. IT,
