A Smuggling Case"

On December 18th. Special Agent
Crane who was on the N. P. train bound
south, short time after passing Penn
bina, noticed the Pullman porter carry
ing several parcels from the Pullman car
to the express car. Mr.. Crane thought
it worth his while to follow the porter,
and sat down in the express car and
waited. Soon Mr.. Case, traveller for a
lumber company of Little Falls, and a
we'll known man on the road, came in
and wanted the parcels expressed to
parties in St. Paul and St. Louis. The
lady to whom the St. Louis package was
to be addressed, happened to be afriend
of the custom officer, but still he thought
he had better see the contents. Mr.. Case
explained that they were some Christ
mas presents of little value sent by his
wife, and there was no need of examina-
ton, but Mr.. Crane still insisted, and the
first package opened consisted of a seal
skin cloak valued at $l75, and the other
packages contained dutiab!e goods
bringing the total value up to $3.50 OF
more. The customs officer seized the
goods and sent them to the office here.
On Wednesday as Mr.. Case was going
through to Winnipeg on the train he was
arrested, and in default OF bail was put
in charge of Tailor Brown. At the
hearing this Thursday afternoon before
U. S. Commissioner Conmy the prisoner
was sent south on the train to Grand
Forks to appear at the U. S. court. The
Pullman porter was held as witness

Christmas trade is reported as very
satisfactory by our merchants, and as a
result they have many remnants and
small lots of goods that they want to
clean up by stock taking time. The
very best time Of the year to buy is just
now if cheapness is an object. Look at
our advertising columns for proof.

Rev. Mr.. Preston lectured on Tuesdav
evening at the M. E. church on "Chris-
tan Citizenship" Mr.. Preston's idea is
to TORN league of Christian men and
women who shall agree to work for pro-
hlbltion, through their influence and
votes, in the primaries and other chan.
nels OF the present political parties. His
argument is, that is what the liquor inter.
ests are doing, and that they are sue
cessiul' and as temperance people out
number the liquor men, all they need to
90 is to organize and act, and they will
beat the liquor men at their own game.

T. L. Price and King & Co. have hung
up new telephones and can talk with
their neighbors as we'll as anybody. This
makes twenty-four instruments in use
and it is a great convenience, and we
wonder more small towns don't avail
themselves of it. The plan is for each
customer to buy their own instrument
and pay for the cost of connection.
There is no central, but each telephone
has its own call similar to the telegraph
calls.

qualities of comprehensive statesman
ship, suigeneris, on the one hand;

surface riples OF popular discussion
which would seem to indicate the

horns of the dilema-a veritable

hope of popular indorsmert. And
the horn selected will indicate, to

who have honored the office or among
the mere politicians who accidentally
achieved it. Il be leads the people,

room were found, the police allege, marked
