Geo. B. Alton, state high school
inspector, paid our high school visit
Thursday. He claims our schools are
over crowded, and more room must
be had. In one room there are an
average of 70 pupils. All the rooms
are full He also stated that another
teacher is needed, there is too much
work for the number we have. This
high school received this year $3.50 ;
and over 81, 800 apportionment. Our
school is progressing finely, and it
would be a misfortune to this part OF
the county if anything should happen
to retard the progress the school has
made.

HIS FIRST OFFENSE.
How Conductor Tom Driscoll Came to be
Laid Off His Run.

How Conductor Tom Driscoll Came to be
Laid Off His Run.
1t is reported that ION Driscoll, a we'll
known Ct. Northern conductor, who had
the passenger run on this branch in the
early days but who has been on the main
line for number of years has been 'let
out" by the Great Northern people. 1t
is said that Driscoll, vino was running a
passenger train, had orders TO meet a
train at a certain station. Arriving at
the designated station he met and passed
a train, but did not observe that the train
carried signals to show that it was only
one section of train, and that another
section WAS following. DriscoIps train
pulled out, and after running few miles
met the second section of the train, and
had to back his train to the station. No
particular harm was done, but serious
accident might have occurred. Toms
misfortune resulted simply from a lack
OF careful observation, and the strictness
OF the company IN demanding that it's
rules and regulations for handling trains
be observed in every particular resulted
IN bis discharge. Drlscoll is an excellent
tralnman OF many years experience, and
it is to be hoped that the company will
be able to find some reason for excusing
bis FIRST offense."

HUSTLERS FOR TRADE.

Langdon Business Men Organize for the
Promotion of immigration and Local
Real Estate interests and Will Exert
Themselves in the Question of Good
Roads and the City's Welfare in General.
Judging from the attendance Monday
night at the meeting held at the City
Hall to complete the organization of
Langdon's Business Mems Union, the
prospect for good live up-to-date club
under the above head is at last to be
realized, after long and patient efforts on
the part OF the promoters. The B. M.
u, has membership Of between thirty
and forty Of Langdon's public spirited
business men, and together with these
quite number of outsiders were present
Monday night. Following the opening
of the meeting by Mayor McPhail, the
president elect, decision was had on
whether the organization should take for
itself the name Of Board of Trade or
Business Mems Union, the latter being
decided on though the opinion of those
present appeared to be quite evenly
divided.
The Union named rs it's officers for
the year Mayor McPhaiI, president, J. B.
Boyd, vice president and e. A. Farrell
secretary. The matter Of adopting q
constitution and bye laws, and deciding
what should be the sum of membership
fee, we're two matters upon which action
was deferred until the next meeting of a
week later.
The real work of the meeting
Was taken up when the question of
Immigration, it's effect upon the price Of
real estate and increase of trade generally
was taken up and discussed at length by
nearly all present A factor that is
likely to make Cavalier county of more
than usual interest to the homeseekers
IN the east this year, is the fact that
$4,000 acres of school lands will bo plac-
ed on the market this fall at minimum
price of $40 per acre. A committee was
appointed by the union to further il,
every possible direction Cavalier county's
interests among the more prosperous
landseekers from the east. The COM
mittee consists of Messrs w. F. Winter
0. E. Thompson, j. G. Dickson, p. A.
Farrell, j. McPhall, all good judges OF
the proper value of our farm lands who
will see that our eastern neighbors have
their attention directed to Langdon and
Cavalier county-the best section OF
farming country on earth.
Another important matter that is likely
to experience quite boost in the right
direction at the hands of the union is
the improving of the roads, or avenues OF
trade, through which Langdou merchants
deal with the crop producer. With
Messrs Jno. Mahon, George vierhus, A
Sohulke, J. B. Boyd and VIM. FIummer.
felt as committee to look after the
matter many improvements may be
looked for on public highways leading tc

their share and stir up tho township and
county officials to the needs OF the
people of the different sections in this
matter.
