THE DAK0TAS
RLIND PIG FIGHT.

seizure, by the Sheriff and Forcible
Ejectment by the Owner.
Grand Forks, N. D., Specialize
blind pig question is assuming an
acute form in Grand Forks county.
and recent occurrences in Larimore
are likely to result seriously to some Of
the people implicated. Over a week
ago the blind pig operated by Julius
Cresein in Larimore was closed by an
injunction signed by Judge Fisk, Of
the district court, and a number Of
packages of beer, whisky and cham
payne were seized by the officers. The
building was subsequently broken into
by unknown parties, some of the
liquor was stolen and the remainder
destroyed. The building was again
broken into OH Tuesday and Cresein
began selling goods. a second time he
vas ousted, but returned and forcibly
elected Deputy Sheriff Spaulding, who
vas in charge, and continued doing
business. Mr.. Spaulding sent to Grand
Forks for instructions, and was in
structed by States Attorney Hamil-
ton to organize a posse if necessary,
and to take and maintain possession of
the building in spite of any opposition.
Cresein finally yielded and came here
last night, crossing to the Minnesota
side, where he still is. Judge Fisk is
absent, but on his return a warrant
will probably be issued for Cresein's
arrest for contempt of court.

The threshing that China received
from Japan seems to have given the
people some new ideas. They begin
to see that civilization is power. and
that China can not be strong unless de-
veloped on modern lines. The North
China Herald prints a proclamation by
the governor of Human, dwelling upon
the advantages to be derived from the
construction of telegraph lines in the
province. and exhorting the people not
to be wrongfully Influenced and destroy
the telegraph lines and poles now be-
ing erected connecting Changsha, the
capital, with Wuchang, the capital Of
the sister province of Hupeh. Accord
ing to a letter from Changsha. it is
reported that, apparently acknowl-
edging the value Of the telegraphs and
that they will not be allowed to inter-
fere with the peoples graves and the
private property of the gentry and lit
erati, the construction of the line has
been going on rapidly, without the
slightest hindrance IN the part Of the
inhabitants of the province. Whereas
in 1891, when an attempt was made by
the imperial Chinese telegraph COM
mission, at the request Of the governor,
to erect telegraph poles within the Dor
ders of the frontier town of Lichou, the
inhabitants of the place rose en- masse
and 10 badly injured the working par
" and military escort that they had
to dy for their lives. abandoning valu-
able material to the mob. Several
lives were lost in the affair and a local
Nterati in favor of the innovation was
also killed by the mob.

England. A cargo of -four cleared Tor
the Orient including 19,1sS barrels,
valued at $7S.S30, bringing the value
of wheat products for the week up TO
over half a million dollars. Reports
that have been coming from the gram
districts north Of Snake river TINS
week, have been of a very discourag,,
ing nature, and it is feared that all
prospects of Il record-breaklng crop II.
that section have vanished. Instead
of the damage by rain being slight, IN
many places it has ruined from one
third to one-half Of the crop.

It would be a mistake to regard an
expensive yacht merely as a summer
symbol of lavishness. A magnificent
steam yacht has been placed e she dis
posal of the inmates Of the vs5sAs "old
ladies' homes" in Philadelphia for ex-
cursions on the Delaware river. What
is even better, this act of generosity is
said to be a characteristic exercise of
Kindness on the part of the owner.
Where there is a will to be kind how
readily the way opens!
