the court Of special sessions for pub

ritate the public mind
Counsel for Most contended that un-
der section 8 of the state constitution
"every citizen may freely speak. write
or publish his sentiments on all sub
jects,'' and that the intention of the
trainers ofsthe constitution was to pre-
vent any censorship of the press.
Counsel also contended that the arti-

that it did not tend to commit breach
of the peace and that it did not come
within the Inhibition of any express
statute
A representative of the district at
torney's Office contended that under
the penal code Most had published an
article which had disturbed the public
peace and outraged public decency.

TWO MEN ARE MISSING AND
STOCK LOSSES ARE HEAVY.
From Medina comes the news that
Dan Mclaughlin, was a victim of the
storm. A young man named Stewart
is . also missing. Mclaughlin and
Stewart lived in a small ranch build
ing twenty-five miles northwest Of
Medina where they looked after 1860
shaep. NGighbors entered the cabin
and found it empty Monday. Indica-
tions pointed to the fact that the
men had been reading in their shack
Sunday night and had left to look
after the sheep. A lamp on the table
was burned out and beside it a novel
turned as though laid down with the
intention OF taking it up again in a
short time. A calendar with a record
Of weather up to Friday was kept
daily for several months. A dog and
lantern is missing and there is no
doubt but that the men have per-
ished. Stewart was a son of the
owner of the sheep.
One hundred of the 1900 sheep are
dead and some of the rest are badly
used up.

SURVEYING PARTY HAS LAID
OUT A LINE BETWEEN THESE
TWO POINTS.
Cakes Republican: A railroad
surveying party arrived in Oakes this
morning from the west for instruc-
'ticns and supplies. This is the party
that left Mckenzie. fifteen miles east
Of Bismarck. on the main line of the
Northern Pacific. about three weeks
ago. The new line will run wesc
from Oakes to the west side of the
county, crossing the Milwaukee, about
a mile north of Duane, crossing the
SEQ at Ashley. thence northwest to
Mckenzie. Mr.. Verify. the gentle
man who. was in Oakes this morning
while not in charge of the survey,
said they were instructed TO keep out
of all towns except Ashley, which they
were to go through. and run the line
from Mckenzie to Cakes.
sWe found very good line said
Mr.. Verify, except in few places
where changes will have to be made
on account Of grades. We expected
instructions here as to making these
changes, but did not get them.
From what am able to Judge of the
line as run it will not be materially
changed Will the road be built?
Well I don't know of course. We
met a party of Milwaukee surveyors
about twelve miles northwest Of ASH
ley, and the the indications are that
another meeting point between the
two roads has been agreed upon. Our
meeting was not accidental, as we
waited half a day for them 70 come up
to us. -

LEGISLATION PROPOSED.

Like che Merger.

Like che Merger.
Washington, March 21.-Marcus D.
Mum, special counsel for the state Of
Minnesota in the suits against the
Northern Securities company, had q
long conference with Senator Nelson
about the matter of congressional Leg
islation.
Mr.. Mum presented the case in a
different light and proposed legislation
on an entirely different basis from that
proposed by Attorney General Doug
las Of Minnesota in his letters to Sena-
tor Nelson, which, by the way, have
appeared in print as a senate docu-
ment. Mr. Eunn. is asking for the
passage OF bill which will allow a
state to bring action in the federal
court against a corporation organized
in another state and which is violatin g
the laws Of the state beginning the
action
Attorney General Douglas asked for
an amendment to existing laws, where
by the federal courts could be invoked
in action by the state against citizens
of other states, including citizens Of
the state bringing the suit. This re.
quest was embodied in the Joint reso.
luton of the Minnesota legislature,
and Senator Nelson replied that under
decision Of the supreme court and un,
der section 2, article 3, of the consti.
tuition, the judicial powers Of the Unit
ed States do not extend to contro.
( versy between state and citizens OF
the same state.
Mr.. Munn's proposition is on much
broader grounds and he asks for fed.
eral legislation that will give iurisdic.
tion for state to bring an action in
the federal courts to protest a viola
tion of its laws by foreign corpora
tion. It is understood that a bill will
be presented by Senator Nelson in line
with Mr.. Munn's recommendation.

Lexington, KY, March 21.-The

The fire was discovered in the third
story of the dorT2itory at 1925 o'clock
by the night watchman. He notified
superintendent Doak who promptly
aroused the inmates and got them
safely and without disorder out Of tn g
building.

the flames spread quickly and the dor.
mitory was soon in ruins.
A telephone message was sent here
for help and the local fire department.
responded. They had about six miles
to go, and although they were too late
to save any part of the dornnitory they
prevented the flames spreading to the
manual training building, which is
near the dormitory.
At 1:1G o'clock the dormitory col
lapsed and at o'clock the fire was
practically eytinguished.
The burned building was erected in
1896, during the administration of for
mer Governor w. 0. Bradley, at cost
OF $25,C00, and was insured for two
thirds of its value. 1t was the only
dormitory completed to this time ex
cepting the one occupied by the girls
three-GuarteTs Of a mile away.
The burning of the dormitory aftel
midnight without the loss OF one Of ths
$50 inmates who were asleep when the
fire started is a marked instance of tn.
value of discipline When the fir;
started at 1884 the watchman CAV
the alarm and telenhoned to Lexine
ton for an engine. The superintendent
and the guards promptly aroused tn
boys and, following the requirement
of the fire drill, the last boy wa
marched out OF the building just be
fore the roof fell in. There was n,
panic and no disorder The disciplin
and the fire drill saved many lives.
Two boys, inmates of the school, es
capped during the fire and nothing ha
been heard of them. The manage
ment of the institution says that tn
building was set on fire b. the boy!
who desired to escape. They believe
it was plot for others to escape also
but the night watchman's prompt ac
tion prevented it. The nature o1 tbs

yet If it was set On fire.
