SUMMER SCHOOLS.

Fargo, N. D.-The county superin-

Supt. Halland, and arranged for sum-
mer schools at Wahpeton, Lisbon, La
Moule. Minor and Glendale, Since
Mr.. Halland's incumbency he has been
making strenuous efforts to replace
the old teachers institutes with sum-
mer schools. The former only lasted
five days, and there was rarely over
four days work. The whole affair
was q joke, and the teachers derived
no benefit. The summer schools last
four or Ave weeks. Excellent talent is
secured, and the teachers receive as

Havana, April 4.-To-day, as under
the Spanish regime, bribery and fraud
direct the Cuban courts. This Is the
firm conviction of the military admin
istration. Gov. Gen. Brooke is taking
the matter up and intends to clean out
the corruption, to revise the judicial
procedure, to change the court per-
sonnet and to abolish the barbarous
practice Of incommunicado, by which
a Judge may imprison for life a per-
son ignorant of the accusation against
him and of the names of his accusers.
1t is true that the statutes only allow
three days detention incommunicadO,
but a judge, under the practice that
has grown up may make a new com
mitment at the expiration Of the third
day, another ut the expiration of the
sixth day and so on, without limit.
More than this the evidence in Grim
inal cases is taken by clerks, who, for
q consideration, write into the testi-
mony things never uttered, thus often
making the best friends Of the ac-
cused appear to condemn him. APP
parently the whole criminal and civil
systems have been arranged so as, to
make it easy to buy and sell justice.

Washington, April 5.-The president
and Secretary Hay have been giving
consideration to the selection of a rep
resentative of the United States gov
eminent on the Samoan commission.
He will not be a member of either the
senate or house of representatives, ac-
cording to present lights. 1t is prob
able the effort will be to find some
person thoroughly familiar with the
issue likely to be presented in the set
Element of this Samoan dispute. The
question is a complex one and has
generally dropped out Of public notice
during the last ten years. the NUMBER
of persons of the official class who are
well posted upon it is extremely linz
tied. 1t is regarded by the state de-
partment as essential that h commits
sion be appointed at the earliest posi-
BILE moment. In the absence OF an
acceptance by Great Britain OF the
commission plan. it has not been pos
sible to proceed to outline the instruc-
lions to be given to the commission.
1t is said that it does not follow by
any means that because the commits
sion is appointed it is to Mt once over
throw the treaty of Berlin. under tho:
terms of which the three governments
have for ten years administered the
affairs Of Samoa. On the contrary it
is entirely possible that the commits
sian will be able to adjust conditions
at Apia and elsewhere in the Samoan
group to the terms Of that treaty, and
1t is conceived here that all that is
needfnl for reforming conditions there
and placing the,n on a basis that will
insure a tranquil and satisfactory adj
minister of affairs may be secured
through the adoption of some addition
oil articles to the Berlin convention,
not even affecting the general principle
Of the tripartite control.

igan City.
Michigan City, n. D.-Some two
weeks ago Martin Hintges, a farmer
living three miles northeast of this
town, was compelled to sink his well
deeper. as the water was getting low.
The diggers went through about twen-
ty feet of slate clay. and just as they
struck a good vein of water, at a depth
Of fifty feet. they also struck copper
ore. They got out several pieces of
are before the water drove them out,
which Mr.. Hintges SEM to Il friend at
Butte. Mont. who is a mine expert,
10 have it assayed. The ore was TAX
en- to four different assay offices at
Butte, and proved to be about as rich
copper. silver and gold ore as they had
seen. showing 4S per cent copper with
20 ounces Of silver and considerable
gold to the ton, being worth $500 per
ton before smelling. Some idea may
be had Of its richness when compared
with copper ore at Butte, taken from
their famous mines. The Butte ore
usually runs from 5 to Z per cent cop
per, and. as stated before. this runs 4S
per cent. An expert miner has ar.
rived here from Butte. and intends to
pump the water out of the we'll and in
vestigate. The town is naturally much
| excited.

While scouts were penetrating close to

in a soft spot in the road. This led to
the discovery of two breech-loading
coast guns buried at the crossroads.
The presence of the guns is a mystery.
The troops will make a thorough
search for any additional arms that
may be hidden. Prisoners captured
by the American troops report that
there is a scarcity of food among the
insurgent troops. Gen. Macarthur
estimated that 10000 Mlipinos have
deserted. Their desire to return is a
most favorable indication.

Fargo, N. DIFF there is anything
the Northern Pacific railway wants In
Fargo all it has got to do is to ask for
1t. Formerly it was said that "All
roads run to Rome but the new YER
sion with the Northern Pacific seems
to read, "All trains must go to Fargo"
When the new coast train was put
IN by the Northern Pacific it did not
give Fargo any more trains, and only
afforded people west Of jamestown a
better opportunity to reach the city.
But to offset this, the schedules were
80 arranged that the people west Of
Fargo, in the nearer towns, had to
arise at unholy hours or come to the
city and remain all night to do their
trading next day. The matter was
presented to the Northern Pacific off,
:ials in the proper manner, and they
have remedied the fault most effectu-
ally.
Beginning April 2, a new passenger
train will be run from Fargo to Coop
arstown, via Sanborn, thence, over the
main line to Fargo. 1t will leave Coop
erstown at 6 O'clock in the morning,
arriving at Fargo at 10 a. M. and re-
turning at 4::3O p. m. This is the best
service imaginable for Fargo business
men. The train will be local, and will
stop at all the main line stations be-
tween Fargo and Sanborn, and, in adj
lition to that, it gives Fargo new ter
ritory up the Cooperstown branch,
opening up new trade that will be
Yo,@1 %1,1r,r1-I, 80 r11IIovS nn~,,olI.,
This new train, taken in connection
with the extension Of the Coopersown
branch. means a whole lot to this city.
In addition to this, the Northern Pa
:iic has made another change in the
aeW passenger train. known as Nos. I
and 8, which run from st. Paul to
Winnipeg Junction. In future. that
train will run to Fargo, and the train
crews will lay over here, and consider,
able local business between the juno
ton and Fargo will be brought here.
East-bound, the train will leave here
at 9:45 in the evening.
These new arrangements give Fargo
four passenger trains daily to the
Twin Cities, and. of course, the same.
number from there. West of Fargo,
there are three passenger trains each
way, daily, and then the passenger on
the Southwestern to Lisbon. LaMoure
and Edgeley. Eight Northern Pacific
passenger trains bringing people to.
Fargo every day would seem to indi.
cate an intention on the part of the
road to help the city along in every
way possible. Much of the credit for
the new train service is due to Supt.
Wilson, of the Dakota division.
