CANDIDATE FRANCIS ]. OLIVER.


A clean. aggressive and what at this
time bears every indication Of being
winning campaign is being wagel by
the friends and supporters of Francis
j. Oliver. Republican candidate for
school controller in the Sec onG ward.
Mr.. Oliver was born at Beech lake,
Wayne county. Pa. but has been a
resident Of the Second ward for over
eighteen years. settling there in,medi-
ately after his marriage. H. is the
third Of family of nine children. five
OF whom have been successful teachers
in the public schools of the state. HIS
parents were not able to start their
children in life's battle equipped with
money, but they gave them something
better--a careful home training and
good educations, which with him has
been supplemented and broadened by
a keen interest in public affairs and u
wide business experience.
Mr.. Oliver is actively engaged as Z
contractor for eXcavating, brick and
stone work. Those who have known
him longest and most intimately are
his firmest friends, and they know and
earnestly bear witness to those who
are not so well acquainted with him
that he harbors no prejudices against
sect or nationality and has no SYM
pathy with any faction which does.
He was born a Republican. and in
his ward has always labored and Is
now laboring earnestly for all the nomi-
nees Of that party. With Francis J.
Oliver as the candidate. just how any
Republican voter can neglect to vote
for him or be induced to vote for the
nominee Of any other party is beyond
comprehension. and as the Second ward
is a solid Republican ward, we predict
more than the usual party majority for
Mr.. Oliver and his fellow-candtdates.

DUNMORE DOINGS.
School Board Did Not Meet Last
Night but Numerous Creditors
Were on Hand with Claims.

President Webber and Secretary
Kellam We're the only members Of the
school board present at the adjourned
meeting held in the central building
last night. AS there was no quorum
present no business could be trans
acted. but the directors room was
Of money at the disposal of the school
board, who We're present to see that
their claims were properly adjusted.
Explanations We're received from the
various firms through their represen-
tatives present: and from the tone OF
the same it was gathered that the
creditors will be paid pro rata to their
claims out of the amount which is in
the hands of the treasurer. The sum
of money at he disposal of the school
board does not begin to cover the bills
against them for the building of the
new school building on the Throop
property, and the various creditors
were very much worked up over this
fact.
The orders for the salaries of the
teachers We're signed last night and
undoubtedly they vii be paid by Treas
urer August Wahlers this afternoon.
The next meeting of the directors will
be held Tuesday night, February l3.

Professor Z. J. Babcock. who holds
the choir Of chemistry and geology of
the State University at Grand Forks,
visited Williston and yacinity, Monday.
He is securing specimens of coal from
the different mines Of the state, which
he will analize, and the results will be
given to the public in the state reports.
He examined the lime at Mr.. Dabl's
kiln, and pronounced the lime of q
superior quality. He also gave the brick
in the Brueggcr yard careful inspec-
ton, and says, they are equal to the
Grand Forks brick, and the clay would
make frst-class paving brick, which is
not common quality for North Dakota
clay. Professor Babcock is very prac-
tical and hard working man. Much Of
his time and money are spent in this
work gratuouely, the state paying only

He is one of the oldest settlers in the
