The Cooperstown Courier, one of the
most newsiest papers in North Dakota,
has launched out upon its twenty-tirst

new press and equipments. The
Courier is a paper that the citizens of
Griggs county should be proud Of

That cold wave from the coast of
Maine dropped down on this co,nmun-
ity last Saturday night and the mer-
curry dropped down to 80 below, so
that for the time being chasing
around in just your shirt sleeves has
been abandoned for awhile. However,
they say it is an ill wind that blows
nobody any good and the coal dealers
have been getting in their work right.
January has been a splendid month
for North Dakota and we are pleased
to think that it has gone. We could
not have had nicer winter for this
country so far.
We understand that there is a change
in the time of holding the village cleo
tion this year. Senate Bill No. 100
was passed by the last legislature and
provides that the annual village cleo
tions shall be held the third Tuesday
in March of each year, making it the
same time as the township elections.
This brings the village campaign six
weeks nearer, and as there are now
three candidates for marshal in the
field-Messrs. John Blocker, Martin
Rood and Dick Lesser, a warm cam
paign is promised as each and every
one of them has a good following and
are hustlers from the ground up.
The town board at it's last meeting
voted to purchase racing cart for the
fire department., and also agreed to
purchase 500 feet of new hose which is
something necessary at this time.
The town board in voting to buy a
cart for the department. has done the
right thing to our notion, the boys
being entitled to recognition for past
excellent services and we believe the
town generally will voice our sentf-
ments in this matter. We understand
that Mayor Sahsburn will 60 to St.
Paul in a few days and will look up
the purchase of a cart at that time.
The fire companies around the state
want to keep their eyes on the whirl-
winds from this town this year.

Otto Bruins left last Saturday for
Westgate, Iowa, his home. He want
ed the farmers down there to get

of oats grown on the rich prairies of
North Dakota, and none better in the
the world. Otto expects to go into
the land business and will try and
bring up a lot of Iowa farmers into
Griggs county this coming season.
The Sentinel was in error last week

enjoyed their visit very much and had
a good time visiting their old friends,
they are delighted to get back to

the same old story they all tell after
they have been "back home.

The farmers institute will be held
at the court house this evening, Janu-
airy % and continuing until train time
Saturday afternoon. A capable corps
of instructors will be on hand and we
are of the opinion that not only farm
ers will be benefited but also any
body who feels like attending. If the
weather conditions are favorable there
ought to be good attendance. If
enough interest is not developed this
time it will be hard work to get an in
stitute in the future, so everybody,
whether farmer or merchant get out
and fill the court house and encourage
the instructors.

A person named Clark was ar
rested for selling impure food
from a box car and the case came
up before Judge Fisk at Grand
Forks last week. The defense
contended that the state had not
shown by the evidence that Clark
had actually offered the stuff for
sale. Clark was the agent for q
Chicago house doing a box car
business in the state and was de-
livering goods when he was ar.
rested on complaint of Pure Food
Commissioner Laid. Judge Fisk
dismissed the case. The fact
was developed that it is the duty
of the sheriffs and deputies to
collect evidence under tho, pure
food law. The case will be ap.
pealed to the supreme court. The
decision is quite a boost for the
box car merchants and unless
the sheriff's and deputies of the
different counties in the state re,
into the game and do business
the state will be flooded with
these box car non tax-paying
merchants. Judge Fisk's deci.
sion probably is accordingto law
and the facts in the case. Fit is
there must be loophole in the
new law that needs fixing up.

What Our Schools Cost.

1t is probably not generally kno"n
that the United States spend annually
on elementary education about S227,-
O0O OOO--the exact figures for 19OO-l9Ol
were, according to the report of the
United States commissioner of educa'
ton, $226,043,236. Europe spent dur
ing the same period approximately
S246,000,0O0. The enrolment in the
elementary schools of Europe is, how
ever, in the neighborhood of 45,OOO'OOO'
while in the United States 1t is not
much more than 100000 although
it is estimated that there were, In 1911,
almost 22000,000 children of school
going age in this country. Our yearly
expenditure per pupil averages so.
Some profit may be gained from a
comparison of the amounts spent year
ly by representative American cites
for the maintenance and operation OF
their public schools. New York spent
in. a single year 9,731 500; Chicago
follows with an outlay of $S,2O3,493;
Philadelphia's expenditure was S3'3l9'-
6O4; Boston's, $3,043,640; Baltimores
S1,417 1892; Cleveland's, $1,257, 345, and
Washington's, $1,1S2,916. New Or
leans is at the end of the list, with an
expense of only $47S,025. st Louis
by the way, pays more for its police
department than for its schools. w.
6O2,1S2 for the former, as against ST.
526, 40 for the latter-a ratio of 81
for the police to 90 cents for the
schools.-Harper's Weekly.

English spanking travellers are likely

French dressmakers especially are
very apt to try to make unwary trav-

Of this kind recently occurred in Paris.
A certain Nine. Gianaclis had ordered
dresses to the amount of thirty-four
hundred francs, and, after many try-
ings-on and numerous delays, she re-
fused to receive them. as they still old
not hit. The dressmaker nevertheless.

Gianaclis. in order to save her ward
robe, was obliged to pay the three
thousand three hundred and ninety f,va
francs over to the court officer. Rut
when the case was heard in court tho
Judge not only ordered the three thous-
and three hundred and ninety five
francs refunded to Nine. Gianaclis, but
mulcted the dressmaker in good
round sum for damages, and assessed
upon her the court costs. He held that
