Sheriff ScOfield at Grand Forks.

Sheriff Scofield at Grand Forks.
Sheriff Scofeld was called to
Grand Forks Monday night on a
bench warrant issued by Judge
Amidon. Mr.. Scotield is accused
OF saying something to one Of
the jurors on the Murphy case
regarding the Majors being a
fine fellow and that the action
against him was one of spite
WORK on the part of his political
enemies. The Independent be-
lieves that Mr.. Scofeld did not
try to influence the juror, if he
happened to say anything to
him at all. Scofield has always
been very honorable in all his
dealings in Ward county and his
friends look upon the matter
very lightly and hope for his
speedy return to this city.

BANKERS ARE IN
SESSION IN MINOT
Twenty Of the Financiers Of the North
west Come to Minot to Organize and
Talk Over Their Best Interests.

The Bankers of the Eighth Judicial
District are in session in Kelley's hall
in this city this afternoon. Atty. Le-
Sueur addressed them for fifteen
minutes. He gave a very strong ad-
dress and the advice which he gave the
moneyed men was excellent. What
hurts one part OF the district will have a
tendency to give the other parts black
eye. If one banker gets cramped for
money; it is the duty for the other bank
ers to see that he is assisted. "Organi-
cations are good but may be abused. y
said MI. LeSueur. The bankers at this
age have to organize and talk over the
best methods for conducting business.
Mr.. LeSueur told the bankers that the
keys of the city were in their hands and
warned them not to give them back un-
til after they had returned to their
homes.
GIL. Bickford, of Bowbells, in res
ponding thanked Mr.. LeSueur and the
people of Minot for their kind welcome.
Banker Livdahl, of Velva, presided
over the meeting temporarily and J. A..
Erickson of this city acted as secretary.
From the thirty six banks in this dis
tricr, the following bankers attended
the meeting:
G. L. Stevenson, Of Berthold; F. E..

GRAND STAND PLAY
 BY GOVERNOR DAVIS.

Hot Springs, May 22.-In an inter- view with a representative of The Arkansas Democrat this morning AttyG Gen. Murphy seemed inclined to look upon the action of the governor regarding the legislative acts as yet unapproved by him as merely an other graudstand play, and that the governor was trying to shift respon- abilities that were his, and his alone, upon other shoulders. In his dictated statement Colonel Murphy confined himself strictly to the legal phase of the matter, and presented his judicial opinion in these words:
 "Davis' contention is illogical.
 eff correct, all bills would have to be presented to him during the ses- sion of the legislature, which has been held by the supreme court not to be the case.
 eff the bills have not been present. ed to him, this may still be done and if he approves them they will become laws.
 What the effect will be if he refuses to act upon them at all is less clear.
 eff they possess merit, he can pre- serve them by his approval.
 eff they do not possess merit and are vicious, nothing will be lost.
 "Tho responsibility is on him, ol will be when they are presented tc him, and cannot be shifted at all- either on the legislature or the en- rolling committee.

ORANGEVILLE NEXT.
The Extension of The Trolley
to that Town Only a QueS-
ton of Time.
Would be a Good Feeder

Present indications point to the
extension of the Columbia & Mon
tour Electric Railway Company's
line to Orangeville, and that before
many moons. The Company's Sec
retary E. R. Sponsler of Harris
burg was in Bloomsbury on Mon
day and in company with Superin-
tendant David G. Hackett, drove
over the line as far as Light Street.
The right of way for the major por
ton of the distance between here
and Light Street has already been
procured by the company, and
that town once reached there would
be very little trouble in getting it
onCinto Orangeville.
The greatest obstacle to the con-
struction of the road is the tremen-
dous grade between here and Light
Street, and to overcome this is what
the company is now figuring on.
From Light Street to Orangeville
there would be little to contend
with in the way of grade. All
along the proposed line the people
are anxiously waiting its coming.
AS an Orangevillean put it on
Tuesday "it will be the greatest
thing that ever happened for
our town" and his words just about
express the general sentiment.
A meeting of the Board of Direc-
tors will be held shortly, when Sec
retary Sponsler and Superintend-
ent Hackett will report their obser-
vations and the matter will take
tangible form.

Bloomsbury. According to the
women's story they rented house
on Penn street, and are going to
housekeeping. Mrs. Smith, she
said, came with her to assist in
fixing up the house.
Liveryman Mitchell was notified
about the team and he came down
after it.
The boy promised to remain in
this section until court convenes
and appear against the men, but it
is doubtful if he is here when the
time comes. He is youngster,
who, if manners indicate anything,
has been allowed to run loose, and
has had pretty much his own way.
He is bright, however, and his
answers were artful and to the
point. He claims to have relatives
in all the towns hereabouts, and
says he came here from Shickshin-
ny, where he spent some time with
his grandmother.

BRIDGE DAY.

The County Commissioners were
out inspecting bridges on Monday.
Fisher was up at Mifflinville look
ing over the river bridge and Sterner
and Bogert were up in Greenwood.
In an interview with the CoLUMIAN
man, after their return Sterner said
the bridge near Chandlee Ewes
known as the Patterson bridge is in
need of immediate attention. The
bridge appears to be too short, and
the water has whirled around and
undermined the abutments. AT
the Shaffer bridge the roof of which
was blown off by the recent storm,
they have ordered two lookouts,
one on each side, to be placed in
the bridge. This will not only
serve to make the bridge lighter,
but it will also be safe guard
against danger, as it will be possible
to get good view of the railroad
track from each side.

AN INTERESTING RELIC.

On Sunday last at St. Paul's
church the attention of the congre-
CATION was called by the rector to
an interesting document hanging
On the wall near the entrance to the
church. 1t was the original charter
of St. Pauls Protestant Episcopal
Church granted by Governor Shultz
in 1924. 1t is on sheepskin, with
a large seal, and signed by the Gov
ernor, Secretary of the Common
wealth, several Justices of the
Supreme Court, and others. One
name mentioned among the signers
to the petition for the charter, that
of Curtis Barton, is evidently a
mistake. Members of the Barton
family say that there was no Curtis
in this section. The name should,
no doubt, be Caleb Barton, the
father of Mrs. A. A. Butler, as he
was an active man in the church at
the time the charter was issued.
This relic has been in the hands
of Col. Freeze for some time, and
has recently been framed. 1t will
be hung in the sacristy of the church
where there is already an interest
ing collection of things connected
with the church history. Among
them are the original article of
agreement for the purchase of the
land where the church property
now stands, between the church and
Joseph Long, in 1898; the commun-
ion table that was used IN the first
church building, more than hun
dred years ago; portraits of all the
Bishops under whose jurisdiction
St. Pauls has been, from Bishop
White down to the present; por-
traits of eight former rectors of the
parish, including, Revs. May, Rud-
row, MARBLE, Cullen, Hewitt,
Zahner, Leverett, and Rev. DIR. F.
Bartlett, who assisted the rector for a
year in 1878. A large brass key also
hangs upon the wall. 1t is the key
of the old brick chuch that was torn
down in 1870. William H. Gil
more bought the building and tore
it down and recently he found the
key and gave it back to the church
as relic. This collection is large
ly the result of the efforts of the
Rev. d. N. Kirkby, the present
rector, who has gathered most Of
the articles and portraits together
and appropriately arranged them.

CIGARETTE GIRLS.

Last Friday evening about nine
o'clock three girls aged from six
teen to twenty years, walked up
Market street putting their lighted
cigarettes like young Bowery
toughs. They met a party of
young men, aud as they passed one
of the latter called out to the girls,
Puff up there Bill, or you'll lose
your fire. The brazen effrontery
of some of the girls of this town,
make curfew ordinance almost a

a MOTHER o1Sorderly session OF the
IA Democratic municipal convention
was held last evening. Franklin K.
Lane was nominated for Mayor,
but the nomination was not hailed with
any special demonstration Of enthusiasm
In fact, no motion was made to declare
the choice unanimous. There were two
candidates for the favor Of the delegates.
Franklin K Lane received 22355 and
David I. Mahony 11415 votes.
The adoption Of the report giving the
chairman power to name forty members
at large Of the new County Committee
was a signal triumph for Gavin McNab.
The adroit leader of the Democratic
forces has secured control Of the works
for the great campaign Of 1904. Another
triumph of the McNab forces was the
adoption of the plank in the platform
which forbids any nominee Of the conven-
ton from accepting the nomination or 60
ing on the ticket Of any other political
party.
The so-called Horse and Cart dele
gates acted last night in style that did
not reflect credit on their intelligence or
sense Of propriety.
Chairman Hickey seemed to be ami
mated by a desire to give the minority
fair play, but his efforts toward conciI-
iatiOn were not appreciated. There are
indications that several district delega-
tions are ready to bolt.
There was considerable talk last night.
