The Forgotten Grave Of La Fayette

In the city Of Paris there is convent
and garden known through the imnor-
tai Hugo's Lies Miserabes." 1t is the
Petit Picpus. In the grounds Of this
convent is \ small cemetery where
nearly 1900 victims OF the guiiOtine
were buried indiscrlmiDately. Here
also repose the bones OF La Fayette
besides those of bis wife. who wished to
be buried there. The resting place of
La Fayette, generally unknown and for.
gotten. is marked only by plain granite
slab. Upon register kept by the con-
cierge Of the convent there are Inscribed
the names of but small number of
casual visitors.
In view OF f;hese facts the LA Fayette
Memorial Commission" has been formed
for the purpose of erecting = monument
to the memory of La Fayette az q
twentieth century tribute from the
people Of this nation, TO be unveiled
with fitting ceremony July 4. 1900, and
thus grand!y celebrate United States
Day AZ the Paris Exposition. 1t is pro-
posed that the cost of the undertaking,
which Is estimated to approximate q
quarter Of a million dollars, shall be
betrayed by small contributions secured
through the agency OF the school chill
dren of our hand.
The dedication of this monument,
secured and built through the efforts of
the young people of America, will make
conspicaonsly resplendent our United
States Day at the Paris Exposition Of
1900. No other country will find such
IL basis for the celebration Of its national
day in Paris; but all the nations Of the
earth will unite with this republic in
the dedication Of this beautiful memoir
iaI a tribute which shall forever mark
the grave OF La Fayetle, whose memory
is conserrated in the hearts of men.
1t requires no argument to convince
the liberty-loving people Of America Of
the far reaching value OF this most

Lot Us Vote for Bonds.

One Of the most important questions
to be voted upon ut the election on the
9th day of November next-the most
important, at least, to the people of Will
liams county-wiIl be the matter Of jssu.
ing bonds for courthouse and JUL pur.
poses, and for the construction of steel
bridge over the Little Muddy. The
business of the county has grown to such
proportions that the diminutive frame
structure; which heretofore We have
been prDud to call ''cOurt-hOuse, is
totally inadequate, and the public inter-
ests now demand Il building of much
larger dimensions, with rooms sufficient
for the wants of all the officers. and
court room, large enough to accommo-
date the increasing business Uf the cOun.
ty. In connection with the courthouse,
for the welfare of the taxpayer, a snL-
stantial fire. proof vault is needed, and
this We must have for the preservation
of our county records. A comnodious
and we'll bnilt jail is another institution
which the county is greatly in need Of,
and one that will save the county many
thousands of dollars in the course of \
few years, by keeping our prisoners at
horne instead Of sending them to MiDot
or Devils Lake for safe keeping, as we
are now doing, and paving those coun
ties money which ought to be scattered
among our own citizens.
Another important question is that Of
voting bonds for steel bridge over the
Little Muddy. Every spring the thing
We call bridge, which spands that
stream, is carried away and has to be re-
placed, and every year the taxpayers
are paving out of their pockets direct
from $500 to $500 for new material and
work on that bridge, and this will con-
tinue to be the case just as long as we
continue to replace one wooden bridge
with another like it, The taxpayers Of
the county have already squandered
enough money on wooden bridges over
the Little Muddy river TO have built Il
first class steel bridge. and bridge of
the latter class will last ut least one hun
dred years, and all the money it will be
necessary to expend upon it after con.
struction will be q few dollars occasion.
ally for planking.
The county board has done wise
act in submitting this proposition to the
people at this time. Let the voters pom
der over the question, and when they 30
to the polls remember and cast their
ballots "For the issue of bonds"

That Scandal.

We the undersigned officers of the
NJ. E. Church at Williston. have care
fully investigated the charges and
rumors circulated on the streets of this
village last Saturday concerning the
character of the Rev. Mr.. Gooderham.
In the first place Mr.. Gooderham drove
out to the residence of B. L. Hardaway
Friday afternoon, and the two gentle-
men were hunting that afternoon. Mr..
Gooderham staid all night and they re.
sumed their hunt until Saturday noon,
when both gentlemen came to town
to attend the Republican Caucus. Mrs.
Stock AYERS that Mr.. Gooderham has
never called at her house and that her
husband is At home every evening.
This statement 10 also verified BY Mr..
Stock.
We haye not bssn able to 1nd the
person who first told the story although
there were several who we're busy
circulating it on Saturday, but when
confronted with the query "How do
you know. or who told you'" it was
always someone else. In justice to our
selves and the fair name of our village,
We will say: Let no guilty man
escape" and if anyone circulates these
falsehoods hereafter they will be prose-
cuted. and publicly receive all the con-
tempt that loving. fair-minded citizens
must feel for anyone who would thus
defame the character Of any citizen.

The nominations made for the several
Offices in Williams county by the Inde-
pendent and Democratic party. which
appear in the proceedings OF the con-
vention held last Saturday. seem to give
very general satisfaction. Tho candi-
dates are all clean, capable men. and
were selected because of their fitness
and ability to dischaFse the duties Of tha
Office for which each was chosen. Next
week we shall give comments on the
merits OF each candidate. The county
needs upright, honorable men to trans
act its business. and yon have them in
the ticket nominated last Saturday.
Hon. David NJ. Holmes, independent
and democratic candidate for governor
of North Oak kota, was in the city Tues
day between trains, and formed the
acquaintance of a good many Of our
citizens. Dave Holmes is q typical
frontiers man. and has been . resident
of the state and Of the territory for
more than twenty-five years. He is
unquestionably the best man that has
ever been nominated in the state for
the position Of governor, and if elected,
will make an able executive and be a
credit to the state. y
