Four Months And S4O0.

Bismarck Tribune.
William Evans, a colored man
from Devils Lake, was this morn
ing arraigned for sentence on a
charge of selling liquor to the
Indians. The defendant in the
case changed his former plea Of
not guilty to guilty. Evans was
represented by Attorney F. H.
Register, who asked the leniency
Of the court. Judge Amidon said
that the government intended to
deal severely with this offense, and
that while there was some excuse
for Indians selling liquor to others
and introducing it on the reserva-
ton, because of their lower intelli-
gence and inordinate passion for
liquors, there was no excuse for
it's sale to Indians by white or
cOlOred men. he sentenced the
defendant to four months in the
Ramsey county jail and $500 fine.

May Change Line.

Langdon Courier Democrat: A
prominent farmer from the south
western part Of the county last
week told The Democrat that some
important changes are being made,
in the proposed route Of the extern
sion of the Great Northern north
ward from Lakota. His infor-
nation came from officials promi-
,ment in the construction Of the
farmers railroad that runs north
from Devils Lake twenty miles
through the Sweetwater Lake
section of the country. The Of
fcials of this road in St. Paul re-
Gently to confer with the Great
Northern Railroad, We're given the
assurance that the Lakota extern
sion would run directly north to
the Cavalier county line bringing
the terminal in the vicinity Of
Merl p%ostofice. This would leave
the towns of Stoltzville. Derrick
and Mortified, built during the
past year along the route it was
thought that the road would be
built, midway between the Lakota
extension Of the Great Northern
and the farmers railroad, which
during the summer is to build an
extension Of its line through to the
Manitoba boundary line with Dash
as the jumping off place. This
change in the Great Northern's
plans will not effect the town Of
Edmore, the point to which the
" grade Of the road has been finished
ready for the iron this summer. as
it is from here that the change
from a northwesterly to a northern
course has been made. If the
project Of these two lines resolves
into a practical form, the ultimate
benefit to Cavalier county will b
two-foid what would have beer
realized under the plan first pre-
scented with the surveying Of tn
Great Northern's extension from
Lakota.

Capt. Jack Crawford Visit. Pueblo

There Is reason now to hopo that Cap
tain Jack Crawford. after his fattering
reception Of tho last two days. has a
more pleasan; opinion Of Pueblo than he
probably had one night about twenty
years ago. when he appeared at the old
Montgomery Opera house on Seventh
street. People Of Pueblo refused to turn
out to SEQ this show. which was west
orn drama on tho order Of Buffalo Bills.
and he and his company played to do
plorablo array Of empty benches. But
Cody himself had similar experiences
when he first started out. and that i'm
mortal trio-Buffalo Bill. Texas Jack and
Wild Bill-had only moderate audiences
on their first tour. most OF tho attendants
being boys. and not the intelligent class
Of the country. Tho people scorned them
as plug -uglies or toughs who were trying
tha, remarkable trio to travel together
most pretentious people in all the cities.
They were not appreciated. and Jack
Crawford was not. But the people know
better now-they know that such men
represented not sham parade Of strut
ting border ruffianism. but a genuine,
distinctive and valuable type Of Ameri-
canism which had its day and its place in
history as truly as Hid the Pilgrim fathers.
Kings and emperors. authors and leaders
in. society now delight to see Buffalo Bill.
Notwithstanding his long hair is turning
gray; and people Of the southwest know
that Captain Jack can not be with US
always. True and manly and honest
representatives Of class Of the men who
made the west what it is. and who have
well won place in the legend and folk
lore Of this great country. they are fast
passing away and soon will exist only in
such stories as the strong and character
istic lines of Bret Harte. who himself a
few days ago crossed to the happy hunt
ing ground.-Pueblo Chieftain.

For the sake Of the sightliness Of the
town and also fD- the safety of its citi-
gems the dead cottonwood trees that stand
here and there among the lines of street
shade trees should be taken out, and any
large dead limbs in the living trees should
be pruned out. A runaway team that
turned down Elm avenue the other day
off Main street struck one of the dead
cottonwoods on the north side of Hereford
g. Awards pharmacy and carried it off
bodily. The trunk Of The tree was caught
between the 'front.' wheel and the wagon
bed and was so badly decayed that it
broke off close to the ground, and wedged
into the wagon, was carried down the
street by the running team. The shock
Of the contact with the tree sent some of
its dead limbs flying along the walk and
over the roof Of the lean-to addition OF
the shop premises. Such trees are a
menace to pedestrians on our streets and
should be trimmed out by those whose
premises they may front.
