LOSES HIS HOMESTEdD

A decision was rendered in the
local land office yesterday in the
contest case for George R. Sig>
nalness, contestant VS.. Dominic
Burns, contesvee, involving
Burns homestead entry on the
southeast quarter of the north>
east quarter, and the east half of
the southeast quarter, and the
southwest quarter of the south
east quarter of section 4 in 52-19.
The decision is in favor of the
contestant.
Signalness contested entry last
April on the ground that the land
had been abandoned and that
Burns had never established a
bonaide residence on it. The
evidence brought out the fact
that Burns voted in Virginia and
was also appointed city assessor
during the time he declared that
his residence was on the land in
voled in the case, which was so
miles away.
Register Culkin and Receiver
Smith accordingly decided. that
the allegations of the contestant
were true and recommended that
Burns entry be cance]led.-News

The Mandan Pioneer calls at.
tention to the fact that the boy
of today has a much better 90
portunity to rise in the world
than the boys of forty of fifty
years age. In these days of ma
chinery, brains are needed, and
it is brain work in connection
with the labor of the hands that
pay. The boy who wants to
give the impression that he is
warm stuff" and who walketh
under the beer sign will never
amount to much. EN- ployers
will not tolerate ''lushers'' as
they formerly did, and the
young fellow who expects to
progress to something better
must supply what the market
demands-and that is sobrietv
and thrift.
