SHERIFF NABBtD GEO. HOFFMAN.
jamestown Barber Compelled to Pay
Board Bill by Bismarck
Sheriff.

The following from the Bismarck
Tribune relates to Geo. Hoffman, the
barber, who left for Hamilton, Mont.
Sunday evening and forgot to pay q
board bill due Mrs. w. Goodrich:
Sheriff Bogue had a telegram from
the sheriff at jamestown last evening
to arrest passenger named Hoffman
on the west bound train charged with
beating a board bill of $25 at James
town. When the train pulled in, the
man had smelled a rat and disappear
ed from the seat he had occupied up
from Jamestown. The sheriff hunted
for his man and finally ran across a
passenger who answered the descrip-
tion exactly, and he took him inflow.
The man protested and said he got
aboard the train at St. Paul, finally
producing a sleeping car check for his
ticket. The train pulled out for Man.
dan and the man wanted made his ap-
pearance again in the coach, when the
sheriff who was watching, nabbed
him. Seeing that the game was up,
the man dug up S25 to pay the bill and
was allowed to proceed, She riff Bogue
sending the money to the Jamestown
sheriff.

Lumber Prices.

G. E. Blackwell OF the Gull River
company spent the day here Saturday
and left for weeks trip to the com.
pany yards in the northern part of
the state. He believes that the three
or four advances in lumber the past
year are not likely to be restored to
the former prices, as the demand for
certain stuff is increasing. Lumber
is now about what it was in this
market in 1882. The heavy timbers
and much dimension lumber must
come from Washington in the future
and a good deal of it is shipped from
there now, as we'll as siding and shin
giles. There seems to have been a run
made on certain kinds iof lumber the
last year and the manufacturers have
combined to put up the prices when
the demand was the greatest. The
advance has Deen made in Washing

good deal of California red wood lum-
Der is coming on the market. 1t is

body who has bought timber land in
the last five years has made good
money, says MIR. Blackwell.

Stock Profitable in Dickey County.

Cashier Mccarthy OF the Bank Of
Oakes spent the day in Jamestown.
He says the stock interests of Dickey
county are on substantial and in
creasing basis and that the farmers as
rule are in much1better shape than
when they were trying to raise wheat
crops. He says:
s'We have q creamery in Oakes run
by good butter on his own response
bility, and he is making it pay both
himself and the farmers who sell him
the milk. We tried the cooperative
plan but it did not give the best re.
suits, as'there was always something
to deduct, and the sinking fund was
to be considered, while it took time
for the butter maker to sell the butter,
and his expenses were always to be
figured out Of the cream. There was
more or less disappointment with the

Another Instance.

J. w. Edinger farmer near Cathay
Wells county, is spending a day or
two in the city with friends. He
now farms 32O acres Of land and does
most Of the work himself, his outlay
for extra labor besides his own, last
year being under 500, he says: He
raised last year 1900 bushels of flax,
500 bushels Of wheat, and his oats
went IS bushels to the acre. He keeps
no stock except what is needed to do
the farm work. These returns are
practically for months work with 6
months in which there is little to do
except the chores: For the labor
involved the results are certainly
what can be secured In few farming
localities in any country. MIR. Eding.
er is a young man, has his farm all
paid for, earned out OF the land. 1t is
another instance of what young man
willing to work, can do in North Da-
kOt0.

Supreme Court Decides Case OF Judge
S. |. GlaspelI vs.. the City
of Jamestown.
Holds That Judge Lauder Had No
Jurisdiction in the Case at
Bar.
Plaintiffs Land Will Continue to Be
a Portion of the City as in
the Past.

The supreme court has handed down
a decision in favor of the city in the
case of Judge S. l.. Glaspell VS.. City OF
jamestown. Judge Glaspell sought
to have his farm property in the
southeastern portion of town exclud-
ed from the city limits and so petit
toned the city council. His petition.
was refused and the judge brought
suit in the district court appealing
from the action of the council. Judge
Lauder was called to try the case.
City Attorney Geo. Thorp, represent
ing the city, contended that jurisdic-
tion in the case did not rest in the
courts, the question being purely a
legislative one. Judge Lauder decid-
ed the case in favor of plaintiff, hold.
ing that he had Jurisdiction in the
case. An appeal was taken to the
supreme court and the contention OF
the city attorney that the legislature
and not the courts should decide the
matter Of changing boundaries of cor
pOratiOnS was sustained.
The decision is an important one, as
number Of other property owners in
the outlying portions of the city would
have taken advantage Of decision
against the city and much trouble
would have undoubtedly resulted.
Judge Glaspell has stock farm on
the lands in controversy and the
higher taxes assessed has made 1T an
object for him to get the land out OF
the city limits. AS a matter OF equity
and justice this might we'll be done,
as it seems unfair to compel collection
of taxes for electric lights, water
works and other city Improvements
on property used for farming pur-
poses and which does not get the ben
etit of the improvements. The su-
preme court, however, seems to hold
that the relief in such cases lies in
the legislature.
