VOLUME XXXIII.
MY SHIP FROM SPAIN:

o Captain, on whose wrinkled cheeks
Arc marks of storm and beating gale,
Have YOU not seen on distant seas,
Somewhere, glimpse of stranger sail
Perchancc when evening shadows fell,
And misty clouds presaged the night,
Uplifted, on some crested wave,
Then slipping slowly from the sight?
NY ship should have sheen of gold,
And silkcn sails like bridal train,
And bear perfume. family sweet,
OF roses on the hills of Spain.
Youth promised me long years ago
This ship would sometime come to nc,
And bear its ladc of wealth and fame,
From distant lands beyond the sea.
II has not cone, ] know not why,
1t may have sought this port i'll vain,
And in some unknown harbor lie,
And idly fret its rusting chain.
Meanwhile, I've beat the anvil's face,
And felt the heated furnace blast.
And wealth of Drawn and honest toll
Into ife's circlng currents cast.
I've climbed the hcadand morn and eve,
TO sean the dark horizon line,
To catch y glimpse far, far at sea,
Of this bclatcd ship Of mine.
Full thrccscorc years have fled away.
And still patient watch and wait;
My whitening hair and feeble steps
Suggest that it may come too late.
For what is wealth to him who dies,
Or honor in the hour of pain?
The Lctho for the i'll of years
Was never borne by ships from Spain.

ton over Indian legislation.
There is one thing that North Da-
kotans now point to with pride. And
that is the harmonious relations that
exist in the congressional delegation
from the state. A few years ago NJ.
n. Johnson was a member of the lower
house. He was at all times at skies
and sevens with his colleague, Senator
Hansbrough. and this fact had very
great deal to do with the failure of
President Mckinley to recognize the
state when he passed out the good
things at the beginning of his admin
istration in 1897. Johnson opposed
recommendations made by Haas,
brou9h. and the latter was unwilling
to indorse the candidates urged by the
former This feeling was so intensi-
fed that the senator and representa-
tive in no way co-Operated on local
legislation, and for couple of years
North Dakota received little service
from its delegation in congress. In
the present delegation there is appar-
emily an earnest and sincere desire to
pull together in everything that means
well for the state. and North Dakota
will undoubtedly profit by this con-
dition of affairs.
In the next congress North Dakota
will have two representatives in the
lower house. Representative Spalding

In the fifty-siXth congress Spaldins

BONDSMEN OF DEFUNCT BANKS.
Attorney General Frich Interested in
Having Them Reimburse the State
For Money Due From the Banks.

Attorney General Erich was in the
city yesterday for the purpose of look
ing up matters in connection with the
suit started by the state several years
ago against the bondsmen of the
Grand Forks National bank, l.. E.
Booker, NJ. F. Murphy, J. S. BartholO-
NEW, Frank Viets. George B. Clifford
and A. W. Gordon
The action was brought to recover
S3,121. the balance due the state as
a depositor of the Grand Forks Ma
tional bank at the time it was closed.
The suit came on for trial on July 26,
1901, and instead of the state securing
a Judgment the costs of the action
was taxed against it. The records
show that the former attorney general.
Mr.. Comstock, failed to make an ap-
pearance on the date mentioned, and
that the judgment was rendered with
out the state being represented.
There is vast amount of docu-
mentary matter in evidence, in the
shape of Gepositions. and Mr.. Erich
will endeavor to have the case opened
and the action against the bondsmen
pushed for trial.
Within the past few weeks Mr.
Erich has started a similar action in
Fargo against the bondsmen of the
Citizens National bank, which went
to the wall some time before the
Grand Forks institution. The action
there is to recover over $4,000, and
the attorney general has fight on his
hands. the bondsmen claiming that
they are exempt by statute of limi
tation.
