Merchants Arrested.

Prof. Ladd, the pure food COM
missioner, is making all kinds OF
arrests over the state, Of mer-
chants for selling adulterated
foods. He arrested four. promi-
nent merchants at Grand Forks
Saturday as follows:
R. B. Griffith, selling preserved
Strawberries
George Wilder, selling adulter-
ated bottled cherries.
W. F. Perry, selling adnlterat-
ed cherry cider
Cotton Bros, selling adulterat-
ed catsup.
Merchants in the western part
|of the state had better look ov-
er their stock and see that they
are not laying themselves liable.
We believe that there are none
who would intentionly sell i'm
pure foods, but they are often
the victims of energetic travelling
men.

Wrong Impression.

There appears to be some usis-
apprehension regarding the pres

concerning the superintendent ,o1
schools The appeal which was
recently dismissed, by the SUI
prelne court, was the appeal
which Mr. Bickford took from
the order OF Judge Cowam, dir
Getting him to turn the offieeover
to Miss Frost. The appeal has
been dismissed. In the suit that
Bickford brought against Miss
Frost, the time for taking .ap-
peal has not etexpired, and the
papers are now being prepared
as expeditiously as possible.

ANOTHER ELECTION

bOadS. !,

The school board Of the Minot
school district held q meeting
Saturday night and decided to
hold another election to deter
mine whether the district should
take up the old bonds and issue
new ones or not. The election
which was held some months a.
yo, on account Of slight tech
nicality, was void and the school
officers deelss'd it best to make
the election legal. The old noti-
ces published before the election
did not specify how much Of, the
proceeds OF the new bonds should
be used for taking up the old
bonds, or pay the floating in
debtedness or how much should
be used in building the new
school house. The state on ac-
count OF that refused to take up
the new bonds, but when these
points are complied with, there
will be no trouble on the score.
The new election will be held on
Dec. Is, and notices have been
posted to that effect. At the
last election, there were 35 in ia
vorof issuing the new bonds and
only one against the proposition.
The proposition is a good one,
The district will be saved each
year $500 On interist, as the new
bonds can be secured Tor onsy
four per cent interest. $4,000
in new bonds are called for. We
are paying eight percentinterest
on $4,000 floating indebted
edmess. 1t will be necessary to
pay off $4,000 on bonds which
will be due next month.

perter Brewn's Hseaps,

One Of the rooms in .the Mer-
camille hotel caught fire in a
mysterious manner Sunday after
noon about 3 O'Clock and for
a time it looked as il Landlord
Benedett's place OF business was
going to be consigned to the
skies. 1t is thought that a light
ed match thrown carelessly be-
hind a bureau did the mischief.
Many guests were sleeping in
their rooms in the afternoon and
the loud cries Of fire soon brought
them to their senses and trunks
OF all descriptions were hastily
packed and taken down stairs.
A bucket brigade was organized
and soon the fire was out.
Editor Coddington Of the Des
Lacs Observer proved himself to
be a great fire fighter. He ran
through the street hatless shout
ing fire at every Jump until he
reached the round house where
he ordered the whistles blown.
The fire was out long before he
reached Jim Hills iron horse
barn. Reporter Brown Of the
Optic'had been on duty formany
hours and was dreaming Of the
land OF milk and honey when
smoke awoke him. He hastily
adjusted his cork leg, but in his
excitement, he got the toe hind
most and when he attempted to
run down stairs, onelee persisted
in walking up while the other at
tempted to GO down. Friends

J. s. Wallace, manager Of the
Minot Coal and Brick cott1pany'ss'
plant at Burlington, remarked
to the Independent man the 9TH
er day that he had been in the
mining business in this state for
six years and he never saw such
a scarcity OF cars before, as there
has been this year. The COM
pany is away behind on the Or
ders. Three-fourths of the busi-
ness is done along the Great
Northern. The 500 company ac-
cording to the notion OF Mr..
Wallace is payingmore attention
to the division Of dividends than
to getting out cars for the mine
owners. The cars have been used
this fall for grain but now the
famine is somewhat relieved.
Allen Tompkins, Of Rugby, who
is connected with the electric
light plant, was a Minot visitor
the other day and he stated that
the plant was kept running only
by burning fax straw.
Mr.. Wallace stated that the
company was planning on put
ting in $4,000 worth OF new
machinery next season besides
will establish a briquette plant.
Mr., Wallace believes a briquette
plant on the German plan will
pay here. The Ignite coal is of
a more recent formation than
bitumin0as coal consequently has
more cells. Each cell contains
water and when the Ignite coal
is exposed to heat or to the air,
the water expands and the coal
is broken into small pieces. To
make briquettes successfully the
]lignite coal will have to-. be
ground up fine, and heated en-.
ough to Just start it to burning,
then pressed. Such coal will burl
