agency, under consideration. No re-
port will be made by the jury until
Monday and it is not known whether
or not indictments have been found
against the men. 1t is claimed that
they carried on a systematic business
at Standing Rock in the line of chang
ing or %rebranding horses and taking
them to South Dakota, where they
were sold. In one bunch that sudden
ly disappeare. there were sixty horses,
but twenty of them were recovered.
Among the Indians is Blackhawk,
the Indian who was mixed up in the
murder of the Spicer family in En-
mons county several years ago, and
who escaped hanging narrowly.
His arrest at Standing Rock has
aroused considerable talk in that part
of the state and threats have been
openly made that if Blackhawk shows
up at Mandan an. nearby settlements
where the feeling against him is still
intense, he may not escape a hanging
SO easily. Should it be necessary to
bring the Indians to Fargo or to any
other point every precaution will be
taken to avoid any serious attempt at
lynching Blackhawk.

MAKE THE HOBBS WORK.

NAME The HOBOS WORk.
The following from the jamestown
Alert is worthy of consideration OF
Bismarck and all the cities Of the
state during the open season for hobos:
1t has been suggested that as the
tramp season approaches the city au-
thorities should prevent the usual large
number of professional tramps from
idling and begging around town, by
enforcing the ordinance against vag-
rancy. If this ordinance is properly
enforced tramps can be made to work
on the streets and once the town makes
it known that tramps are required to
labor on the streets these parties will
fight very shy or the place. Some of
the streets already need cleaning badly
and will soon be grown up to weeds.
A great deal of work is needed now
and more will be. 1t is easy to tell
between a professional tramp and an
honest laborer looking for work, and
officers of the law would seldom make
a mistake in hauling up the wrong
a The experiment was tried at
Buffalo, N. D., of making the tramps
work on the streets and it was remark
able in how short a time the tramps
heard of it and how free the town be-
came from the professional tourists.
If jamestown wants to solve the tramp
question and keep the streets clean at
the same time, enforce the city ordin-
ances that are passed for that purpose.
1t has been suggested, also, in cases
where men are not arrested and want
a meal or two, they be given employ
ment and allowed to earn it by work
on the streets, instead of begging it,

COWBOY

Sunday morning about 6 o'clock,
Bob May, in company with a man
named McGrady, tried to locate a good
place to swim a few head of cattle
across the Missouri, about three miles
east of Williston. The two cowboys
entered the river on horseback and as
soon as Mays horse got into the water
it began to plunge and fell backwards
and threw him off, and in the founder
ing appears to have struck him render
ing him unable to swim as he only
came to the surface once. His COM
panion, McGrady, was close by, but
was unable to render any assistance.
May is supposed to have about ST.
200 OF 81 300 on his body, which has
not yet been recovered. May is a
southerner and has until recently been
employed by Pierre Wibaux of Mon
tana.
