From statistics compiled by
John McJannet who has long
been an undertaken in this city,
September is the month when
most deaths occur in North Oak.
Then is when the old and the
young die and when the con-
sumptives begin to grow weaker.
The leaves always fall in Septem-
Der, and while this fact has moth
ing to do with the death OF any
one, it is always noticed that the
undertaker's business is greater
at that season of the year. Mr..
McJannet states that should
September turn out warm, we
may look for more deaths than
if it remains cool. During the
month OF August he had - I'M
dertaking cases and in July only
six.

The city council and Mayor Of
Minot have said that the bawdy
houses must go. Years ago
ordinances prohibiting such
things were passed, why, wehard-
ly know for they were never en-
forced. What is the use to have
laws unless they are enforced?
Those houses have been in too
prominent a place in the city and
if tolerated at all. should be fore
ed beyond the city limits. The
Independent believes that they
are not a necessary evil and that
the community would be just as
well off and perhaps better with
out them. We are in favor of
that ordinance either being re-
pealed or enforced.

There are all sorts OF fakes
abroad these days, and one OF
the worst is advertised in a
Darlington paper. A London
house states that there too many
young women i'll England, and
too few in North Dakota, and for
$50 each it will arrange to send
young women over to this state
asprospective wives for the yearn-
ing bachelors. The money is to
be paid when everything is salts
factory, but a little fee asa start
er Of s. is to be sent along as an
evidence OF good will. The fools
who send IS to this institution
belong in the same category with
the farmers who sign notes for
strangers. They all need guar
CLANS.

What are the people Of Minot
going to drink anyway? Ifyou
drink the water here, you are
likely to get a bad dose OF ty-
phoid fever, according to one of
Minot's physicians. If you drink
beer, you are sure to die of fatty
degeneration of the heart. Then
if you stick to. good old Ken
lucky whisky, it will soon pre-
pare you for the undertaking
room, by giving you an alcoholic
liver. Drink the adulterated milk
and you will get chalk in the sys-
tenn. Marshall Mcclure is now
called upon to tell us what to
drink in those double column
editorials of the Reporter.

While the Independent is a Re-
publican paper and expects to
remain SO as long as it is con-
Quoted under the present manage
ment, we feel at this time like de-
fining our position in regard to
the coming election. In national
and state affairs, we are for the
straight ticket, from President
down. In county affairs, we be-
lieve in selecting the men best
qualified for the Offices and will
not hesitate in telling our read
ers Just what we think OF the
various candidates. Because a
man happens to beclassified with
the Republicans, and is even
nominated for a county Office on
the Republican ticket, is no sign
that he is the man for the place,
nor is it a sign that he is the
choice OF the people. We will no
doubt support number OF the
candidates on the regular Re-
publican county ticket.

1t seems that the system adopt
ed by the city OF Grand Forks in
paying the police officers is a
good one and could with perfect
IMMUNITY be adopted in Minot.
For instance those officers who
have served the longest receive
the best pay. 1t is hardly right
to pay some officer who has not
been long on the force more than
one who has been tried and who
has always done his work in a
faithful conscientious manner.
The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1904-09-14

The Optic sets up a howlabout
the independent candidates. Has
not a man a right to come out
and make an independent fight
for a county Office? What did
S. s. Richardson do two years
ago? Was he not an independ-
ent candidate? And for his be-
ing so, was he not given at a
recent state convention the high
est honor given to a Ward county
man, that of being a Presidential
elector? William Carroll was an
independent candidate for the
legislature. He was rewarded by
being allowed to head the
delegates to the Grand Forks
convention. Then there is
that old time Democrat, a man
who was never known to be any
thing but a Democrat, a man
elected time and again to the
legislature in Minnesota on the
Democratic ticket, Joseph Roach.

There are three men, present
county officers, in whom the
people Of the county trust. They
are men who have been tried,
they have been weighed in the
balances and have not been found
wanting. Those men are James
Briggs, county register of Deeds,
Louis A. Larson, the present
county auditor and William
Murray, county Judge. Those
men have more friends in the
county today than any other
three men, and when November
8 rolls around, the Independent
predicts that the votes which are
cast for them, will be proof that
our remarks are true. These men
have not had a word said against
them. They went into what they
supposed was the regular Re-
publican convention and secured
the votes Of every delegate. Now
that this convention has been de-
clared not the regular one, they
feel that they have aperfectrigh
to come out as Independent
candidates and in doing so, they
have the sanction of three-fourths
of the voters Of the county

We understand that after the

fills those promises, he might be
compelled to do something in the
way Of a new structure.

NEW YORK GOSSIP
WEEKLY RESUME OF
MEN AND EVENTS

NEW YORK, Oct. Unsupported by
nearly all of the leading lawyers of
New York Sheriff Erlanger will make
an effort to have the next legislature
abolish that relic of mediaevalism the
debtors prison of New York, by repeal
ing the law permitting arrests in civil
cases. The sheriff hopes that suffici-
emily strong public sentiment can be
aroused in support of the measure. Be-
fore the present sheriff went into office
the civil-suit prisoners were treated
as il they were convicted criminals.
Now, they are well fed; their cells, or,
rather rooms ARE comfortable and neat
and they are free to come and go as
they please within the boundaries of
the prison. The ease with which a per-
son can be put In Jail here for debt
snakes no man secure against the deb
tors prison, and once within its walls
there is no chance of escape unless one
submits to the demands OF the sharp
practice man and the blackmaiIer.. It
is occasionally matter of life impris-
onment for no crime.
Unless steps are taken soon by some
Of the historic societies. the old head
quarters which Washington occupied
at the battle Of White Plains will be
demolished. A New York realty COM
pany has purchased the tract of land
ON which the building stands and Is en-
gagged in cutting it up into building
lots. There Is some talk of getting the
board of supervisors to buy the old
landmarks ard preserve them in the
form of museums. but as yet nothing
has been done. The buildings are very
dilapidated. Windows are broken out,
doors are torn off and tramps sleep
there at night. Many of the RELICS of
the famous Revolutionary struggle
which took place in the neighborhood
have been dug up recently, among them
cannon balls and British and Hessian
coins. The entire section is rich in his

NEW YORK FASHION LETTER
BY ESTELLE CLAIRENONT

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-The way that
fashionable folk have adopted the
crepe de Chine craze is really some
thing to marvel at. One sees it in the
smartest of shirt-waist suits for morn
ing wear, with the skirt that clears the
ground. and just shows the tip of the
tiny black leather shoe. One sees it
in the more elaborate luncheon and
afternoon frock, where frills and laces
are called upon to add to the dressy eff
feet. And one sees 1t in all of the new
est tones in the novel coral and ger
anium pinIs, the new almond. olive and
bronze green: in the shot, the printed
and damasse effects for the hand
soonest ration, hand emroideries real
laces empiecements that glisten with
the tiny spangles and neck jeyelry, and
with Empire sashes of chiffon and lace
that bring out the dull luster of the
crepe to perfection. For any and all
occasions the crepe de Chine gown Is
the correct thing; the only thing to
know Is how to fashion it to meet the
special requirements Of each. And this
is what the smart girl prides herself
that she can do with the result that she
presents herself distinguished ap-
pearance in every gown Of her crepe de
Chine repertoire.
A word regarding wedding gowns Is
always in season. so it may not be
amiss to tell the bride-to-be that there
is q revolution in handsome wedding
gowns for this Fall They win be made
as often Of hand-embroidered null as
OF satin. Both will be used. for satin
can never have superior. It only fas
a rival. This null is the French
weave, as soft as q spiders web. The
embroidery is in fine spirals. tiny dots
and thin leaves. It is merely e. tracery.
but padded and done with the finest
floss. The women OF today do SO much
embroidery at home and do 1t SO beau
tifully, that It is no great expense to
have such d gown. II, however, one
hasn't the time to do it there is an ex-
ceIlent imitation In some Of the shops
that develops into beautiful frock.
The gown is dropped over messaline,
which Is the softest OF all fashionable
silks. Under it there is a lace and
musline petticoat. The blouse is made
over a boned waist. which reaches
from bust to hips, made of taffeta.
This preserves the shape OF the waist
and hips over the corset. The loose.
dropping effect at the waist line ~
out OF fashion. The messaline and null
is draped over this to follow the lines
OF the figure, and over the exact waist
line the drapery IL Of liberty satin.
There are three corded shirrings up the
front. The embroidery IL used In =
front panel In the center OF six-gored
plated skirt. 1t is also in two bands
at the knees and there is a deep top
piece of 1t, lined with white silk net.
The sleeves~are in two large puts. fin
ished with two ruffies. The veil Is put
on in the new way. It is arranged into
an Alsatian bow in front with tiara
OF myrtle blossoms. There is knot
OF myrtle at the left side Of the bodice
and two long streamers Of it from the
white Kid prayer book, which has on
its cover cross in enamel This is
the usual gift of the brides mother on
the day Of the wedding.
