The Fargo Forum has a re-
cipe warranted to cure the most
obtuse linger-langering youth.
The girl works the scheme not
mamma. She tells the young
man to write down nine ciphers
in a aline-00OOOOOOO-then
to commence on the first on the
left and from the right of the
cipher draw a straight line up;
on the right of the fourth make
a straight line up; on the right
side of the fifth a line down; on
the right Of the seventh a line
up; on the right of the eight one
mark down; then to read whathe
has written. Itknocks the spots
off the alarm clock plan lin cases,
of course, where the young lady
is really bored.

the boys prosper.

The Courier does not desire to
cast any reflections on the popu.
list ticket, on tho contrary we
candidly admit that nothing can
be said against anyone on the
ticket, at the same time believ.
ing that the republican ticket is
equally as good and being a re.
publican, we feel as If that ticket
should have our hearty support
and it will get that from top to
bottom. We reserve the right
to question any candidate on the
opposition ticket as to their stand
on matters of public interest and
if they refuse to put themselves
on record and resort to person
alities we shall be compelled to
meet that with the best argu-
ments obtainable. The populists
have the same right to question
any of our candidates. We be-
lieve t-1at the republican state
and county ticket is as good as
any ticket in the field, and we
urge all republicans to vote it,
and we are not going to wait un-
til 1.-The last issue before elec-
tion" to ask them to do that
either. If you are a populist
support that ticket, if you are a
republican support. that ticket.
That's business, when both con-
tain equally as good men.

In reading over our exchanges
we notice in the Pingree items
OF the jamestown Capital a short
time ago that the people of that
portion of Stutsman county were
bringing out Prof. Fred M. Wan
ner, formerly a resident of Coop
erstown. as candidate for
superintendent of schools, and
asking dissemination at the hands
of the republican convention
which meets in jamestown in the
latter part of this month. While
we do not live in Stutsman coun-
ty and therefore have no voice in
the selection of county officers
there, we desire to say a good
word for our old friend and
former citizen of Cooperstown.
For two years Mr.. Wanner was
principal of the Cooperstown
schools, and during that time
kept our schools up to a very
high standard. We consider
him as fine a gentleman as can ba
found anywhere and fully cap
able OF making a splendid county
superintendent. AS a citizen as
well as a teacher Fred. M. Wan.
ner was greatly admired and res
pected for his many sterling
qualities. He is conscientious IA
Whatever he undertakes, is q
gentleman of high moral attain
ments and just the right man for
that office. The Courier not onIv
hopes that Mr.. Wanner viii IL
nominated but elected by a great
big majority.

Death Of Hiram Williams.

F.. D. Williams informs the
Courier of the death of his father
which occurred at jackson, Mich,
August 5th. The deceased will
be remembered as one of the pio-
neers of Griggs county. The
Jackson paper has the following
to say:
''Mr. Hiram Williams was born
November 20, 1916, in Niagara
county, New York. He had the
misfortune to lose his mother
while still an infant.
At five years of age, he remov-
ed with his father and step-moth-
er to Jackson, Mich, which at
that time consisted of but three
or four houses. In 1845, he was
married to Elizabeth Chappelin,
to whom nine children were born,
of whom six are still living.
During the civil war, he was
employed as a U. S., detective.
In 1879 he removed to Bunkerhill
and settled upon a farm. In 1882
he removed to North Dakota,
where he took up a claim; but his
main business was a land agent,
selling aud surveying land. His
wife died in Dakota. Two years
ago last February he came to
Michigan, and spent the remain.
der of his life with his daughter,
Mrs. w. G. Green.
During the latter part of his
life he was a great sufferer, but
bore it with patience. He was
not a church member, but read
his Bible, saying, 'It is true, ev-
cry word of it, and I am ready to
60"
He quietly breathed his last
Friday, August S. The funeral
services were held from the house
Sunday afternoon at 2 O'Clock,
Rev. F. E. wright oaaciating,
and the remains laid to rest in
Oak Lawn cemetery.

by the Northern Pacific is making a
great record too. The request for ii

senger department at St. Paul in
large numbers from every part Of the
United States. This is tribute to
wide advertising as we'll as to the
enterprise Of the company and the
value of the book. Mr.. Chas. S.
Fee, the general passenger agent a,
St. Paul, Minn., will send the book
upon receipt of ten cents.
