Minot's Needs are Manv.

Minot's taxes are very high
and necessarily SO. Six per cent
of the listed value Of the proper
ty is taxed and the listed value
is fifty per cent of the real value.
The city is in debt still without
any improvements to speak of.
There are hundreds of things
which we need to put us on a ba-
sis with other cities ofourcalibre
but it is impossible to get them
at present. We need new city
hall badly. The fire department
needs many new equipments. We
have no sewerage. Cement side
walks are needed. A city well
should be put in SO the water
will be pure enough to drink.
Watering troughs for horses and
drinking fountains are alsoneed-
ed. A park would not go so bad
The sloughs need draining. We
might mention hundreds of 9TH
er things which we need, but
which we cannot have at the
present time at least. Every
bill which is paid by the city now
places us beyond the debt limit.
Our mayor is not at fault; the
members of the council are not
to blame. We simply have not
the source of revenue.

STRIKES GAMBLERS HARD.
Rev. Edgar Jones, Pastor Of the Methodist
Church Says a Saloon Keepe. is Respect.
able Beside Gambler.

Rev. Edgar Jones, pastor of
the NJ. T.. church Of this city is
creating a great deal of interest
in his Sunday evening sermons
and does not hesitate in point
ing out the evils of the city. Last
Sunday night he plainly showed
in what way the commandments
are violated in modern society.
He condemned vulgar purloin-
ing, unjust dealings between
laborer and employer, fraudul-
ent enterprises in both industrial
and political life, and gambling.
Such sentences as the following
were found in his address,:
'"The child was once taught
the greater the theft the more
fragrant the crime. Today Soc
iety leads us to understand that
the more sweeping the robbery,
the less guilty the wrongdoer.
Many individuals who would
blush to violate the law OF theft
in small matters, utterly fail to
see the force of that mandate in
larger applications. The en-
ployer has as much right to de-
mand a fair days work for a
fair days wages, as the laborer
has to cry out for a fair days
wages for a fair day work. And
stealing is committed when either
party fails to meet the demand.
Gambling before any court Of
morals must be pronounced as
unqualified thievery. A gambler
may regard his business as high
ly respectable. We pronounce
it to be absolutely disreputable.
The business OF Il saloon keeper
is eminently moral compared
with that pursued in a gambling
den. The slanderer is the cheap
est Of all criminals. The non
Chistian has by no means Il
monopoly on slander. 1t is a
common vice in the most eXclus-
i've Of church circles. A.man has
no right to be interpreted and
reported on, on the ground OF
appearances, or what a neighbor
thinks OF him or out of a per-
sonal impression. The church OF
Christ can do nothing else but
protest against the shame OF a
city, and il it fails to 90 SO, it
stands eternally discredited be-
fore the God Almighty

New Press Purchased.

A new Cranston cylinder press,
one of the best ever ordered for
the northwest, has been purchas-
for the Independent office. A
new Handy Andy gasoline en-
gine has also been bought, be-
sides other equipments. The
new machinery will be installed
in about two weeks. The .Inde-
pendent can say without boast
ing that when the improvements
will have been installed, we will
have without exception one OF
the best offices in the west.

Wild Man is Seen Again.

The wild man spoken Of in last
weeks paper has not been, up to
date, captured although dozens
have looked in the hills every
evening where many report hav-
ing seen him. Geo. Morrow's
little boy came home Thursday
morning frightened out OF his
wits and stated that he and a
companion had been chased a
long distance by the wild man.
j. A. Erickson, the banker,
saw a man running up and down
the hill north Of his home Thurs
day evening and he telephoned
at once to Sheriff Scofield. They
drove at once to the hill but not
a sign Of the man did they see.
They were joined by a large
crowd. Some say the fellow is
clad in a shirt and red sweater
Others report seeing him stark
naked. There is no doubt but
that a man answering this des-
cription has been seen in the hills.
It has been nearly two weeks
since he was first seen and he
shows up nearly every evening.
Many are inclined to believe
that he is a Joker and If he island
can be caught at the trick,a coat
of tar and feathers would be
none to good for him.

Values high.

"Look out for Cars!' An In
dependent reporter had the
pleasure OF taking a trip along,
the new G. N. branch railroad
which is building from Granville
to Gordon, Saturday for several
miles. Everything is active.
Hundreds of large horses and
willing men are moving the dirt
to make a firm grade. What
was level prairie two weeks ago,
now bears the resemblance Of a
railroad grade. North Dakota
is truly a great state. 1t has a
great future. Her farm values
are increasing. Farms along
the new road are being held high.
It is hard to buy a relinquish-
ment at all, 81 900 being no in
ducement. Decided land has
jumped to $4,000 a quarter Sec
ton.
Several new towns will be
started along,the line. ..Gordon
Observation-Disclosures the pre-
.sent-as Mohall has been cut out.
Both Mohall and Renville are
engaged in moving to Gordon.
Two banks, two newspapers and
numerous stores are be in g
started.
Near Walter postoffice in 15S-
80, another new town has been
started. Lots are not to be sold
until Aug. l, but many business
enterprises are being planned.
Wilson Walter will move his
store to the town. Myron Hunt
will start a blacksmith shop. c.
p. Colcord will open a newspaper,
law and land Office. Henry
Loechel will feed the multitudes
ON something besides bread and
fishes at his restaurant. Ed S.
Healy realizing the great pros
:perty Of the country, will start
a banking business and look
after the shekles Of the farmers.
We understand that corner lots
will go at $500 each.
Among the most congenial
men we met, was Contractor
Murphy, whose orders are that
no mortal be driven away from
his camp hungry. Cook Vivian
is the busiest one OF the bunch
providing generous dinners for
the graders. Mr.. Murphy stated
that we might look riron horse
about Oct. / as the company
intended hauling this seasons
crop over the new road.

Campbell Grew Eloquent.

The hearing OF Al Campbell
and H. j. Taylor, over tbs lat
ter's killing Campbell's donkey,
was held in the city jail Thurs
day afternoon. Taylor was ar
rested and lodged in Jail for shoot
ing one of the mocking birds
through the head and killing it
instantly. The other donkey
was shot several times in the
rear, but aside from a few flesh
wounds, was not injured. Judge
Murray, before whom the Taylor
hearing was held, bound the
man over to appear at the next
term of court under 5000 bonds.
The bonds were furnished and
Taylor is back working at his
truck patch. Justice Cooper
heard Campbell's case. Al plead
his own case. He waxed warm
and furious. He grew eloquent.
He said in part:
Gentlemen of the jury, friends
and countrymen. He who has
eyes to see, let him see. He who
has ears to hear, let him hear.
/ stand here today not to put
myself before the eyes Of the law
as a model, but to eulogize my
poor dead donkey. Why, them
mocking birds never done any
harm. Any child could pet them.
The bible speaks ofthem. That
dead one was just like the one
Christ rode into Jerusalem on. l
admit that those donkeys have
had full sway in Minot. What Of
it? They never harmed a living
thing-excepting some of Ernie
Tompkins' tomato cans"
cloud crying by Officer Dan
kimball behind the scenes.)
Justice Cooper took the case
under advisement until the fol-
lowing day in order that he
might look up the pedigree OF
the dead animal.

The Panama incident is about
closing as matter of doubt or even
of much discussion. 1t is both
natural and habitual for the Demo
Gratis to oppose any policy of Re
publican origin. They do this
usua ly without reflection, or with
out counting in any way the event
ual cost OF their opposition. So in
this instance without considering
the pronounced desire of the peo-
pie, or the effect of opposition upon
their organization, they have gone
just far enough in this matter to
reveal their lack of patriotism, their
instability and uncertain judgment
as a party, not to mention the in
consistency of their opposition
viewed in the light of their own
party history in the matter of ter
ritorial acquisition. So frequently
has this erratiC course been exh1b-
tied that the people of the United
States have come to distrust the
Democratic party and to look upon
1t both as unsafe and unreliable.
and so devoid of instinct in grasp
ing the proper end Of the stick of
new National issues as to be unfit
to guide and develop the destinies
of the most potential Nation of the
earth. Only next year the whole
people are preparing to commem-
crate "The Louisiana Purchase"
by perhaps the most lavish exDen-
diture for a National Exposition
ever held in the Western Hemis-
phere. And it is we'll that it should
be so done, for no act in the ad-
ministration of Thomas Jefferson.
or of any other Democratic Presi-
dent, was so richly pregnant with
the fruits of such far reaching con
sequences, or that tended more to
the enlargement or the diversif- |
cation of our National greatness,
Just one hundred years since that
great event, comes another oppor-
tunity to add to our strength, and
to develop our power and reputa-
tion among the nations of the earth
by an undertaking stupendous in
conception, and inestimable in re-
suit. Notwithstanding this, how
ever, these later day disciples of the
great Jefferson, replere with deter
ioration, drifting away from the
precepts and practices of their
greatest leader, raise feeble cries
against the Panama Canal because
the enterprise Is being forwarded
by Republican Administration
Advice is superfuous and gen
orally unheeded, but the Democrats
had better about face and scramble
on board the Panama boat, and voy-
ige along with the American peo-
pie. This little ditch that shall
