TOUGH LUCK.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR TOURISTS
HAVE BEEN PLAYING IN HARD
LUCK.
New York, Aug. 3O.-Four hundred
and thirty disguised Christian Endeav-
or pilgrims arrived today on the Aller
with all sorts of stories of ~privation
and ill treatment abroad. The major
ity stranded and were awaiting remit
tances from home. Last June thew
paid from $500 to $500 to the agency
to take them to London and the con-
tinent and sailed. After the Saale and
Bremen burned at Hoboken harbor
those in London divided into parties
n then their troubles began. One
of the women said the hotels were ter
rlble, some being improper. They
went hungry many times enroute and
when they reached Interlaken the an
nouncement was made that the tour
was abandoned owing to lack of funds,
The party could get to Cherbourg as
best they could. They finally got there,
passage being paid in advance. .They
got to New York all right.

N. P. BUSINESS

NORTHERN PACIFIC OFFICIAL IN
NEW YORK SAYS BUSINESS
CONDITIONS ARE sATIsFAC-
TORY.
New York, Aug. 31.-Talking of the
conditions of business along the lines
of the Northern Pacific, an officer of
that company just returned from a
western trip says: General condi-
lions along our line are very satisfac-
tory, and from what l could see, they
are likely not only to continue that
way, but actually to improve. One
fact always to be borne in mind in con-
sidering the future of the so-called
granger roads, is that they no longer
depend for their living, as they did
formerly, on the crop movement. Traf-
fc is now much diversified, the policy
being to build up general business, so
that in case of a failure in any one line
of freight, there will be others as an
Offset. Hence it is that the Northern
Pacific, like other western roads, now
much more than formerly, carries lum-
Der, ores, wool, general freight, etc.,
quite apart from the grain movement"

Spalding Looking After Depart
ment Matters.

Washington, Aug. 3O.-"The demo-
Gratis had to have an issue at any cost.
They pounced upon the chimera of i'm
perialism as the most available, ex-
pecting that it would overshadow six
teen to one, but they will find before
the campaign is passed that this year
will record another democratic bubble
bursted by the votes of the people,"
This observation was made by Repre-
sentative Spalding of North Dakota,
who is here for a few days on business
before the departments. Mr.. Spalding
has just come from Vermont, where he
has been spending the summer with
his family. "The people of North Da-
kota favor expansion" said Mr.. Spald-
ing. ".They take no stock in the ridic-
ulous cry Of the democrats about i'm
perialism. In my judgment the ques-
tons that confront the people today re-
specting our island possessions do not
involve the question of imperialism.
There is no such thing as Imperialism
in this country. The democrats had
to have an issue as they have come to
recognize the impotency of free silver
in drawing votes. North Dakota is
solid for Mckinley and Roosevelt, and
the republican standard bearers will
have handsome majorities. The state
ticket will also be elected" Mr.. Spald-
ing has a number Of matters of inter-
est to his constituents to attend to
around the executive departments. The
representative leaves for Saratoga to-
morrow, where he will attend a meet
ing of the American Bar association
Wednesday. Mr.. Spalding is a dele
gate from the North Dakota Bar Asso-
citation. After his visit to Saratoga
he will go to Vermont, returning to
North Dakota with his family about

BANK TAXATION.
SUIT BROUGHT TO ADJUST THE
NATTER OF BANK TAXATION IN

SUIT BROUGHT TO ADJUST THE
NATTER OF BANK TAXATION IN
THE STATE.
Grand Forks, Aug. 31.-An interest
ing action is about to be started by
Cochrane & Corliss of this city, which
will go into the questions of assess
ment and taxation in quite a novel
manner. The banks of Pembina
county, organized and operated under
the state law, will take steps to prevent
the auditor from extending the tax
levy on the treasurer's books as far as
they are concerned, OF the ground that
the provisions of the constitution have
been violated inasmuch as that states
that all property must be assessed
equally in accord with it's real value.
The claim is made that the state banks
are assessed greatly in excess of the
assessment of national banks espe-
cially. 1t seems that it is the custom
to deduct real estate owned by the
banks from the capital stock, and as a
result many of the national banks pay
no tax on their capital stock, as their
real estate holdings exceed 10 per cent
of their capital. The national bank at
Dickinson, n Of the richest and most
fourishing banks in the entire state
does not appear on the state tax rolls
at all, and there are others. 1t is
probable that this action will also go
into the matter of the on-assessmen
of monies and credits of individuals,
Many persons who have large loans out
of their own make no returns of these
to the local assessor, and in fact it is
claimed that our present system of as
sessment is all wrong from beginning
to end, and the local assessor is in
fiuenced too many times by friendship
and pulls of various kinds to leave
property off The tax lists. A thorough
investigation has been made of the
bank taxation matter and a very inter-
esting showing will soon be made in
the courts on the subject.

COMMON LAW.
JUDGE POLLOCK KNOCKS OUT A
COMMON LAW MARRIAGE IN

JUDGE POLLOCK KNOCKS OUT A
COMMON LAW MARRIAGE IN
STEELE COUNTY.
Fargo, Aug. 3O.-Judge Pollock has
decided the case of William H. Morgan
VS.. Emma Dean Morgan in favor Of the
defendant.
The case was tried at Sherbrooke sev-
eral months ago and was n Of the
most interesting ever tried in the state.
From the evidence produced at the
time of the trial it appears that about
fourteen years ago Mrs. Morgan waa
divorced from George Earl, who at one
time conducted a hotel at Tower City
and now lives in. Barnes county. He
charged his wife with adultery. He
asked for a divorce and it vas granted
on those grounds. Shortly after that
time she met William Morgan and
they decided to enter into a common
law marriage. They located at Hope
and for thirteen years enjoyed the joys
and sorrows of life as Mr.. and Mrs.
Morgan and were so introduced. They
conducted a hotel at Hope, and a few
years ago, after having some property
difficulty, in the shape of a blind pig
investigation, Mr.. Morgan decided the
property to his wife. Last fall James
Daley of Minneapolis visited Hope and
it was presumably love at first sight
between him and Mrs. Morgan. She
left Hope and was married to Daley.
They left Minneapolis and shortly after
that the hotel property was sold. by
the woman to a man named Wheeler.
The trouble began in real earnest then,
and Mr.. Morgan gained temporary pos
session of the property, claiming at
least a share of it, even if he had deed
ed it to his wife. Mr.. Morgan took
the view that the commo law mar
riage was a. legal and binding one, and
started an action for a divorce from
the woman he was neve married-in
the usual way.
Mrs. Morgan or rather Mrs. Daley,
claimed that she was never married to
Morgan, that the property was given
to her and that she had a perfect right
to dispose of it as she saw fit.
In this decision Judge Pollock does
not go into the merits of the case to
the extent Of saying that there is no
such thing as a common law marriage
in North Dakota. He holds that there
never was any contract of marriage
between the parties. hence no marriage.
either by common law or otherwise.
That the relations between the parties
were meretricious in their inception
and so continued throughout. It fol-
lows that the defendant had a right to
marry her present husband, Daley, and
in SO doing could not be guilty Of adul-
terry.

ganize him, square the ofice-and then
