were pronounced:
Peter Smith, who was indicted for
being associated with Joe Coture, in
running a saloon and not posting 9 gov
eminent %license, plead guilty and was:
fined $50.
Oscar Gelen. who was indicted on the
same charge, plead guilty and was fined
500 and sentenced to serve thirty days
in the Rolette county Jail.
A. F. kulas, IN the same CHARGE.
plead guilty of selling beer at picnics
without p sting a license, was fined 1926.
John McFee, who was found guilty Of
evading the internal revenue law by
smuggling in forty-tive head Of cattle
from Canada. The revenue department
confisca;ed the cattle and McFee paid a
fine of $40.
JIG. Davis was arraigned upon an in
dictment charging him with having
struggled 1000 bushels of wheat at.
Hannah and evading the revenue tax,
which would have amounted to S1.75O:
He was given time to plead and is held
under bonds for 81, 900. The court ap-
pointed Attorney A. B. Lee to defend
him.
The following persons were arraigned
on indictments charging them with
cutting timber On government lands,
and plead guilty, and were sentenced as,
follows:
William Lenoir, fined s75 and 60 days.
in the Rolette county Jail.
Chas. Pattanude, $50 and 60 days.
Alex. Gunville, S21 and 60 days.
Chas. Ross, Jr., $50 and 60 days.
Ambrose Ross, $3.50 and 60 days.
Joe Falcon, $3.50 and four months.
Willis Vancelous plead not guilty to
the charge Of cutting timber on govern
ment lands and his case will come up in
July at Devils Lake.
The sentences are much heavier than
usual, but the Judge said it was the
policy of the court to stop trespessing
on public timber lands of the state, and
will try to impose sentences large enough
to do it.
The investigation and trial OF these
cases put an enormous expense O the
government and the evils in the aggre-
gate are very great.
Cavalier Republican: Geo. McCul-
Tough received a letter Friday the 18th
from his brother at Dyea, Alaska, stat
ing that he has a mine on the Yukon
river from which he mined s22,5OO last
season; He writes for George to come
as soon as possible and join him. He
also has another mine which he thinks
is much richer. George will wind up his
affairs in this county, and together with
Fred Horniry, will start for Dyea the
latter part of May.

Alaskan In ormation.

One of the most complete and clear
histories of. Alaska is that written by
eX.G Governor Swineford, and published
by Rand McNally company of Chicago.
1t is historical and descriptive, giving a
full history Of the region and it's govern
ment, details of it's purchase, the gold
discoveries and a valuable collection of
information which is useful as we'll as
interesting. Mr.. Swineford is particu-
larly adapted for the preparation of
such a work as this, since he was
formerly governor of the region and is
familiar with it's history. nature, and
conditions obtaining there. The work
is we'll written aud interesting, and at
tractively printed.
That tired feeling is due to impover-
ished blood. Hoods Sarsaparilla en-
riches the blood and gives strength,
energy and vigor. Be sure to get
Hoods.

RESULTS OF ELECTION.
Results Of the Various City Elections
Held Through the State of North
Dakota Monday.
Mayor Patterson Reelected Without
Opposition in the City and Light
Vote Polled.
J Crimson Defeats Barnes at Fargo and
Bailey Fuller Beaten Down at
jamestown.
City Election.

Mt, S1Iy GleCtlOus
Bismarck had a city election Mon
day-easily the quietest in the state
and as quiet al any ever held in the city
of Bismarck. There was absolutely no
excitement from the opening to the
closing of the polls. The endorsement
of the past administration by the large
mass convention Saturday night was
taken as conclusive evidence Of the
wishes of the voters, and the vote yes
terday was very light, there being no
opposition to the citizens ticket. None
of the candidates voted even for them,
selves, and the total vote of the city was
only 172. In the first ward, sixty-six
votes we're cast, in the second sixty-fve,
in the third thirty-six and in the fourth
fifteen. The officers elected are as fol-
lows:
Mayor, E. G. Patterson.
Treasurer, s. M. Pye.
Clerk, b. w. Richholt.
Justice, j. F. Fort.
Aldermen. First ward, John White,
Charles Blunt. Second ward, II. P.
Bogue, Henry Tatley. Third ward,
Walter Shelton, J. A. Barnes. Fourth
ward, s. D. Rohrer, Frank Ryan.
Elections in other cities through the
state were rather livelier than in Bis
marck. At Fargo was perhaps the most
interesting contest in the state and J..
A. johnson carried off the honors, win
ming out over Barnes by 300 majority.
1t is stated that irjudicious personal
roasts of johnson contributed to this !
result-anyhow he is elected by a large |
majority, having carried every ward in
the city with r exception.
At jamestown there was another sur
prise in the election of Alfred Steel over
the we'll known Bailey Fuller, who has
heretofore had easy access to the
mayors chair through the will of the
voters. There were several new factors
entering into the city campaign which
disturbed Bailey's normal majority and
made it a minority, and he was defeated
by twelve votes.
At Valley City Uncle John Russell was
elected over A. H. Gray the republican
candidate by a majority of SO votes.
Mandan elected P. W. McGillic.
A stomach of undigested food is about
as unhealthy a mass as one can we'll |
imagine.
What a be done with it?
There it stays. 1t won't digest. It
churns up, ferments and decays; be-
m poisonous las all putrid matter
does) and causes great pain and deep
seated disorders.
In order to change all this, take
Shaker Digestive Cordial.
1t stops fermentation and decay at
once, so that no more poisons are created.
1t clears the stomach of poisons al
ready there. 1t helps it to turn the
food that remains, into healthful nour-
isment. It strengthens the stomach
for the next meal.
Here is the whole philosophy and
cure of indigestion in a few words. And
what's more, it's all true. Try it.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is for sale

I. Leslie Carpenter will form class
10 study sight-singing at the popular
price OF 10 cents per lesson. on the plan
Of Frank Damrosch's New York Glasses,
and at the suggestion of Mr.. Damrosch.
1t will be organized at Unitarian
Church, West street above Eighth, on
Monday evening, January ID, at 8
o'clock. One lesson per week will be
given. A thorough course from foun-
dation to finish will be pursued, so
that in the end the class will be able
to read the most difficult vocal music
with absolute certainty of accuracy.
Mr.. Damrosch's classes sing at sight
the standard oratorips, without instru-
mental accompaniment. Some of our
singers follow the notes, but with many
sight reading is sight guessing. Such
singers are slow to learn and unreli
able. Anyone who can sing simple
tune can readily learn to read with GER
tainty by joining this class. and no
previous knowledge of music is neces
sary. The class is open to all, and
Those desiring to profit by it should
enroll on opening night, January I'd.

Y
Although the pressing needs OF the |
mechanical department. at Delaware
College have left little money ayoila-
bic this year for the purchase OF books, |
aevertheless, the general library of the
college Is growing. The few acccssiens
this year have been mainly books OF
popular science, and q few actually
needed for tho successful conduct OF
the classes in history and literature.
The general library is made up OF
hooks belonging 10 the departments pf
English literature, politics, political
economy, history, philosophy and
ethics, together with strictly popular
works belonging 10 the Other depart
mental libraries. Tho bulk Of the
books belohging to the several depart
menfal libraries are, however, kept in
the recitation rooms of the several pro-
fessors. Books in the general library
especially assigned for reading by
students In any department are,
usually, for tho time being, removed
to the recitation room OF the professor
in charge Of the department, so that
| they shall be in no danger of being
given Quito others than those TO whom
they have been especially assigned.
Ordinarily. however, oil the books OF
the general library are open TO the use
of all the students, who may either
read in the reading room, where the
| library is housed. OF obtain permission
to take ont such books as they need. :,
| In view of the fact that the Access
Sims to the general library will be few
this year, 1t is expected that the APP
preparation for the library will he
larger next year than in recent years.
IL possible from 400 to GOO volumes will
he added. These will include works
on popular science, considerable addi
tions to the library of American his
tory, and many volumes Of early Eng
lish literature. The number of critical
works win be increased, and the best
editions OF the great poets will be pur-
chased. The library already contains
the work of such poets, hut in some
cases IN cheap editions. The books OF
American biography, political and lit
ersry will be considerably increased
Books dealing with the history Of Della
ware will be purchased when they can
be obtained. Many such books, how
ever, arc not TO be had Of booksellers,
and any friend of the college having
any such books that he Is willing tc
part with can hardly do the institution
a greater service than TO present then
, to the library.
Since the general library was en-
larged and established In the presen
j quarters, the interest Of the students
, in reading has greatly increased. TIL
reading room. open night and day, i
seldom empty, and the best Literature
I Of the library 10 freely used.
1t Is the wish Of the college that tn
! library shall be useful, not only to tn
: students of the college but to all per
., sons who may desire access to 1t for tn
purpose of Investigation or study AM
accordingly, although it is not lend
: ing library, any student or investigate
= is freely welcomed to the reading room

Legal ln,.rrs, rlyn Per cent.

1t is stated by the New York Even
ing Post that the general reduction by
savings banks all over the country on
the rate of interest allowed by them Oh
deposit from 4 to 3i5, and in some
cases to 3, per cent has, it is said, mado
it more than ever necessary 10 have the
legal rate Of interest in that State re-
ducad from 10 ) per cent. Accord
ingly, a bill Is to be introduced IN the
Legislature at Albany for that purpose
as soon as the Legislature is assembled.
and, according to tho opinion of many
bankers and business men, the bill will
meet with very little opposition, and
Is sure to become law.
Efforts 70 reduce the legal rate of in
terest to :, per cent In New York have
been made frequently before, but such
proposed legislation was always do
feated, the bankers and business men
very generally opposing all measures
for that purpose. The country voters,
particularly the farmers and small
tradesmen, it is said, favor the passage
of such law, and many bankers now
unhesitatinely declare it to- be their
ohinion that market rates for money
will in future always be on a lower
level than they have been in the past,
that Investments here will bring a
lower return than has heretofore been
the rule, and that the rates for money
| generally in this country will be more
nearly on level with the ruling rates
| in the money markets of the. world,
which are drawing more and more
closely together every day. One argu.
ment thar was frequently used against
the reduction of the legal ratio of inter
est In Now York was that to do Sc
would give other and especially nearb.
States, such as New Jersey and Penn

1t was said, however, that argumer

While immigration to this country is
not as large as formerly the figures of
the last fiscal year show the addition
of 229, 800 to our population from this
source. Tho proportions were 1856. TT5
males and 93,524 females. The total
was about the same as in tho pre-
ceding year. About 11,O0O came by
way OF Canada, and as many by way
of Baltimore and Boston, but New
York was the favorite landing place,
ITS, T4S coming in via New York. The
material is not SO good as 1t formerly
was, ranking low in education and
wealth. There were $3.50 from Italy,
IL Ill from Germany, $4,000 from
Russia and Finland, 4,T26 from Poland,

Britain, 10000 from Austria Hungary,
12.395 from Sweden, 4,93S from Nor.
way and 4,275 from Turkey, with
smaller numbers from other countries.

brought by immigrants was si,S52, OFT

The Sussex Journal of Georgetown is
opposed to authority being given to the
Levy Court OF Sussex county-the Adj
dicks Levy Court 1t calls ito nego-
tiate n loan for the purpose OF paying
of the cuunty's large floating debt 1t
clnims that the Levy Court has col
lected more taxes than did Its Demo-
cratic predecessor, but has spent the
money and left nothing to show for II,
at the same time piling up floating
debt Of $50, 900. 1t says there is reason
to believe that large part of the float
ing debt represents bogus county orders,
an instance being rumored OF q road
overseer giving county orders in pay
ment for the harvesting of his corn
crop. II there is any truth in this
charge, it becomes good reason for the
uction of the attorney general.
Eve are fiat-footedly opposed to
bonding the county debt" says the
journal. "Then, when the people have
another opportunity, they should turn
these rascals out Of Office and elect men
who will run the county affairs as they
would their own private affairs. Politi-
cal henchmen are not the men to man
age the affairs of the people. We need
to get back to the good old time Demo.
cratic policy of strict economy and
honesty
The policy of strict economy and
honesty" will be the right thing fol
Sussex county, whether 1t is Demo
cratic or not. IL is not so much mat.
ter, of politics as of practice. Thu
money of the taxpayers has been sadl.
wasted, and they want reform.
The Lewes Pilot also opposes tn
bonding of the floating debt TIL
remedy, it says, is to increase tn
tax rate, pay the debt, elect competen
men to transact the business of tn
people instead OF those who cam
transact their own, and men who ar
not dictated to by boss and til
county will recover its credit
This is all right as far as it goes, Blu
how about guarding against recur
renee Of the same state Of affairs? O
course, the election of thoroughly goo
men will do a great deal, but good me
are not always elected to these posi-
tions. The great need is for legal re
strictions to prevent bad men fror
wasting the public money and plungin
the county into debt.
The entire Levy Court system Of til
State is sadly in need of reform. Her
is work for the next Legislature to d.
