WILL ADVERTISE
MINOT WELL

An Independent reporter had
the pleasure OF looking over one
of the advance copies Of the Van
Exie & Moore souvenir book of
Minot. This is q fine ADVERTISE
nent for the city OF Minot.
There are Sc views, MANY being
OF the churches and residences of
the city, besides there are anum-
Der OF handsome farm scenes. A
steam p!ow at work, binders in
the harvest field, a cabbagepatch
of several acres near town, COM
fortable farm homes, all these
tell the story OF the success Of
che residents OF this part OF the
state far better than words. The
coal industry Of Ward county
was not forgotten. The beauti-
iul views of Mouse river, the high
railroad bridge west of town, the
mill, wholesale house, Lovers
Lane, a view of the business por-
ton OF the city and scores OF
other pretty pictures will give
our friends in the east an idea of
what a really good city and
country is. The books will soon
be here for sale and the price OF
them is reasonable

Not Familiar With the Law.

The Optic has set up another
howl about the lobby OF the
postoftice not being left open.
If the editor OF that paper was
familiar with the postal laws, he
would readily see why the lobby
is not left open. If the post
master should leave it open I'M
der the present condition OF the
postotticc, he would lay himself
liable to discharge from the gov
eminent. The postal law states
very plainly that the lobby must
remain locked when no one is in
charge OF the Office, unless the
screens or windows extend to the
top OF the room. There are still
six glasses to he placed in the
room, before those requirements
are met with. Then on Sundays
and on holidays the Office will be
left open until IL o'clock atnight,
and on regular days it will not
close before that hour. Officer
Kimball will be given a key tobe
used after that hour in case there
is necessity for SO doing.

How Others Look at Ii.

Prominent Minot citizens give
their opinion regarding the free
delivery of mail:
l.. NJ. DAVIS: ave ought to
have it. 1t is time that Minot is
doing this very thing
A. J. BRuNNER: "Minot is the
third city in size in the state and
we ought to have free delivery"
l.. S. CHAMpINE:: ''It is time
that Minot were throwing of her
gear as u frontier town and get
this free delivery Of mail. Prop
erty owners should not object to
put down sidewalks. 1t not
only makes the town look better,
but actually improves the value
of the property. Minot is a
metropolitan city and is entitled
to free mail delivery
J. II. GREENE: clam decidedly
in favor of free delivery. There
may be a few who are against it,
but their objections are certainly
not good ones. 1t would be a
fine advertisement for MinOt.
J. NJ. DEvINE:: "Yes, we should
have free city delivery. What is
asked OF the citizens is but a
little. We must have no kickers
in Minot. There should be no
objection to this. 1t is a good
thing. The commercial club
should take up the matter at
once"

Murderer has Crying Spells.

The negro, Gusby, who is con-
fined in the county jail charged
with numbering Gates at Portal,
has violent fits ofcrying at times
and does not seem to be very re-
sponsible for his acts. He was
taken into several cells the other
day while new doors were being
placed on his cell and finally
taken upstairs. He burst out
crying saying to Jailer Roller in
pitiful tones, "They just move
me all round dis here old jail and
| am gettin' father and father
away from my clean clothes all
the time" Gusby is made to
wash his own clothes and he
keeps faultlessly clean. He still
spends hours reading his Bible.

The New version.

A North Dakota poet has i'm.
proved on poor Richard. He
says:
early to bed and early to rise
Does very we'll for sick folks and
guys,
But makes a man miss all the
fun till he dies,
And Joins the stiffs that have
gone to the skies.
Go to bed when you please and
lie at your ease,
You'll die just the same with
some Latin disease. "-Ex.
