Flax Thieves.

John T.. Fosholdt came to town
last Friday to swear out a warrant
against some person or persons who
had been stealing fax from the
granary on his farm. He did not
know who it was and left that for the
officers to find out. 1t seems that
there was several in the deal. A man
giving his name as Andrews, another
fellow by the name of Geo. Davis and
and two others named Laclead and
Lince seem to know something of the
deal. On Monday night Sheriff
Thinglestad arrested Geo. Davis in
town on the charge of stealing fax
and he was taken before Justice
Warner Tuesday morning, where he
waived examination and was bound
over to the district court, bonds be.
ing fixed at $500. Laclead was put
through an examination but sufficient
evidence was not obtained to hold
him and he was let go. Andrews
had left for Minnesota and Lince
could not be found, but the officers
are trying to locate them. 1t seems
by the testimony of Davis that
Andrews and Lince hired him to go
to Fosholdt's granary with the team
to get the flax and then to draw it to
Hannaford where it was sold to
Agent Markuson. Flfty-nine bushels
were taken and the price received for
it was s1.14 per bushel. There has
been a great deal Of grain stolen in
Griggs county and we hope that the
thieves will be caught and severely
punished.

Obituary..

After over a years patiSht suffer-
ing Miss Emma Ward passed away
last Monday afternoon at I p. M,
from consumption. The deceased
was the daughter OF Mr.. and Mrs.
David Ward OF this place, and prior
to her sickness was one of Griggs
county's honored school teachers. She
was member of Evergreen Lodge
No. &, Daughters of Rebecca, and
from them she received that help
which every member of that order
pledges to sister when in trouble or
sickness when they take the obliga-
ton Of the order. The lodge has
done all that it could dc for their de-
ceased sister. The w. C. T. u, al
so aided very materially in seeing
that she was we'll cared for and nursed.
The funeral took place at the resi-
dence of Mr.. Ward, Wednesday after
noon at 2 p. M, Rev. Oscar d.
Purinton officiating, the Rebeccas
reading part of their ritual at the
grave. The deceased was born Sept.
29th, 1880. and for the past few years
has been resident of Cooperstown,
during which time she had made
many friends who mourn her early
demise.

The man or organization that
fails in patriotism in the hour of
his country's peril, to use a
slang phrase: might as well go
into the hole and pull the hole in
after him. The American peo.
pie have no use for such, and
never fail to give expression to-
their feelings when an opportuni-
ty affords. Perhaps the one
most noticeable demonstration
of this kind that has ever oc-
Cured in the United States was
on the occasion of the Dewey
parade in New York. When the
war broke out the 9TH New York,
the states crack regiment, re-
fused to enlist. They were in
the parade, and over the whole
line of march for miles they were
Kissed by millions of people
Who can imagine their feelings
and sense of disgrace as they
marched stolidly along, looking
neither to the right nor the left.

1t will soon be time for con-

pie all over North Dakota are
wondering what attitude Con-
gresham Spalding will take in
the matter of the seating of Con-
gressma Roberts. of Utah. If
Mr.. Spalding will place his ear
to the ground he will be able to
hear the roar of disapproval by
the people of seating this polyga-
mist. 1t would be a bad pre-.
cedent to establish to seat q man
with three wives and our con-
gresham shouldn't need-and
we do not think that he does
any popular manifestation from
the people of this state as to
what course to pursue in this
matter. He should vote and
work against the seating of
Roberts and such action would
meet with the approval of a large
majority of the people of not on.
