Dedication of Monument

The employers and employed of
Campbell Bros. Circus did a very
graceful act, after the afternoon per-
Torrance, of last Thursday, June %.
About $50 people preceded by their
band they marched to the cemetery
and dedicated a monument to Bert
Atkinson who was accidently killed in
our streets, June %, 1903. Atkinson
was a young man of 20, and snare
drummer of the band. The monu-
ment was. very fire one and erected
at an expense of 1925, for the monu-
ment itself. The dedicatory services
were brief consisting of reading a few
selected passages of scripture, prayer
and remark by Rev. E.. A. Mirick
pastor of the Congregational church !;
a brief word by W. L Colyer who
pledged himself to see that flowers
were placed upon the grave each de-
dication day; and three instrumental
pieces quite touchingly rendered by
the band After the unwilling OF the
stone, the employees circled about
the monument to read the inscription
They then gathered in the rear of the
grave and some kodak pictures were
taken of the monument and them
selves. Six nationalities three Asiatic,
and one Moorish, in their picturesque
garb were quite noticeable. Campbell
Bros. have placed themselves IN very
favorable light before the people of
this section of the country, by this
kindly, humane act.

Injured at Smith Lake.

Pred Magnuson who formerly lived
here, but is now brakeman on the
Great Northern, was injured last
Saturday evening at Smith Lake
about 6:45 while he was switching TWO
cars onto the side track. He had
Just succeeded in uncoupling the cars
when his left foot caught in the frog
between the tracks. The wheel of the
next car showed his foot out and at
the same time cut bad cash on the
top of the foot. The oncoming car
forced him down and he was dragged
for about three car lengths before the
train stopped. The elbow joint OF his
left arm suffered a compound fracture
and his left leg was badly bruised.
He was taken to WiIlmar on the late
train and upon his arrival was taken
to the Frost hospital, where his in
juries were attended to by DR.. Harold
Frost. At the present time the pa
tient is doing very nicely and there is
no danger of amputation.

RESTRICTIONS IN SHOOTING.
Owner Can Prevent Shooting Game
on Adjacent Highway.

By a decision handed down by the
supreme court Friday, it was ruled
that the owner of land can prevent
persons from hunting wild game not
only upon his land, but also upon the
public highway adjoining. The
court said in it's syllahus:-
"The owner of the soil has exclusive
dominion over it and the exclusive
privilege of hunting, including the
unqualified right to control and pro-
tect the wild game thereon.
"ln granting an easement across
his premises for the purpose of a
public highway, the owner does not
surrender to the public his right to
foster and protect wild game on the
land, and the public does not acquire
any right to pursue and kill the same
while it is temporarily passing to and
fro across the highway
The ruling was given in case car
ried up by Uri Lamprey, the presi
dent of the state game and fish com
mission.

Champion YOUNGSTERS.

The Morris junior ball team went
to Herman Wednesday and took
game from the Herman boys after a
hard fight.
The batteries were Darling, Lord,
Clark and Harris for Morris and
Boerner, Schram for Herman.
Both teams played fast game.
Ire first two innings were shut outs
for both teams. Then on an error
and bad throws Herman made three
runs and Morris one in the third.
From this on. things looked pretty
blue for the Morris boys till the
eighth when Burt Clark and Chas.
Burpee arrived and informed them
that Norman was not in their class
at all. They promdtly m de eight
two base hits in succession running
in eight scores and shutting Herman
out. The ninth resulted in two rims
for Morris and none for Herman.

NORRIS BOYS MEET DEFEAT
At GLENWOOD AND
klRKHOvEN.
JUNIORS WIN AT HERMAN
THEY ALSO PLAY A FAST
GAME WITH HERMAN
JUNIORS WEDNESDAY.

During the past week, Morris
PLAYED and lost two of her scheduled
games-one with Glenwood and one
with Kirkhoyen. Both games were
fast, and the two defeats do not
show a great decline in form.
At Glenwood, special preparation
was made to defeat Morris. Jack
son, of Sank Centre, and Dan Booth.
of Willmar, we're hired as the battery
for Glenwood. The battery aided
the Glenwood boys wonderfully, and
in fact we believe that their work
was largely responsible for our de-
feat. When the day came for the
Kirkhoven game, Brown was laid up
with sprained ankle, and was unable
to take his turn in the box. O'Mal-
ley, the speedy shortstop, could not
60, and that together with the alb
sence of Brown, put the home boys
at disadvantage. Taking every
thing into consideration, the showing
of the boys in the two games was
very good and we believe that they
will take a majority of games from
both Kirkhoven and Glenwood before
the season is over.
At Glenwood, the game was one of
the best ever played between the
two teams. Few errors were made
on either side, and the stick work on
ca Oh side was light, especially so in
regard to the Morris boys who secur-
ed but five hits off Booths delivery,
Brown kept G]enwood's hits fairly
we'll scattered, but did not pitch as
strong a game as Booth.
The insbility of our boys to hit
Booth was largely responsible for
the score of 3 to 2 against Morris.
Of course we must take into consider
alton the remarkable fast work of the
Glenwood fielders, for they, by their
brilliant playing, cut off several hits
from Morris, which if not caught.
would undoubtedly have aided in
securing more runs.

est besides the case itself, and that
is the way the court has finally come
to adopt the view taken by Judge
Brown of one of the legal points in
volved.
1t appears that the settlers have
not been the only ones that Sage
has had to contest with for these
lands, but that after he had filed his
map of definite location of the lands
granted his railroad, that the st.
Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba laid
claim to certain of the lands under
the terms of another grant. The dis
pute between these two railroad COM
panies was not settled till about 1898,
when Sage got title. Meanwhile this
settler had been occupying the land,
and claimed it as a homestead. In
the former case the court ruled that
the time while the land was in dispute
between the two railroad companies
should not be counted against Sage
in considering the settlers claim to
adverse possession, but Judge Brown
dissented. When the case came up
this time on rehearing. Judge Brown
carried the majority of the court with
him in holding that the time began
to run against Sage from the time he
flied his map OF definite location, and
that the fact that the ST.. M & Try
Co. also claimed the land had nothing
to do with the settlers case.
In the Olson case before cited,
Judge Brown was the only member
of the court to take the view which
has now won out. In the former
hearing of this case, he was joined
by Judge Lovely, and now at this re-
hearing, his principle has gained the
recognition of the majority.

The defeat OF KirkhOyen on

The defeat OF Kirkhoven on Tues
day was due to poor batting. The
boys lost their hitting eyes, and found
Hanson for only four hits. Such
work with the stick cannot win
games, The team must pick up ir
batting, amp depend so much on the
work of the battery.
Bailey, who was on the slab for
Morris, pitched an excellent game,
and deserved to win. No long
drives were made off him, and he
kept the it's scattered. Errors back
OF him were very costly, four of them
aiding the opponents in securing
their runs. Better fielding, and
lew more hits by our boys, would
have won the game for Morris.
Outside of the errors. the Morris
boys made scme brilliant plays.
Jones made some pretty catches in
centre. Jones seldom drops fly,

The new tax law takes OH
eleven cents of State taxes next
year, and commands, and en-
forces the command by a bond IN
the sum of $4,000, that the far
mer's land shall be assessed at
"the true and actual value there
of; that is to say, at the price for
which such property would sell II
voluntarily offered for sale by the
owner thereof" Let us see how
this will work. A farmer owning
100 acres of ordinary land finds 1T
assessed now at $40 an acre, or
$1,000 for the tract. The total
taxes outside the city averages
$1.s5 on the 500, therefore his
total taxes are $3.50 on the
farm. The new tax commissioner
who is compelled to assess the
land cat the price at which such
property would sell if voluntarily
offered for SALE" This is not an
extravagant price, and there are
not many farms whose owners
would voluntarily part with them
for less than $50 an acre. When
this assessment is completed the
State will take off eleven cents
of it's levy, leaving the total levy
$1.74 on the 800. The assessment
having been increased three-fold
the farmer will have to pay three
times $1.74 instead Of only $1.S5.
And the result is that the land
owner pays 1920 taxes under
Dawson's tax reform law, where
as, index the old law he paid
$3.50. Now the farmer, or any
other person, who can figure out
the benefits to property owners
may have the stage.

do. The Democrats have issued a
newspaper supplement in which is
printed the new tax laws word for
word. If the Republicans honestly
want the tax laws read and seen
by the people, why don't the Re-
publican orators and newspapers
publish the few sections OF the
new law about reassessing land
and personal property. These
laws are short, any one can un-
derstand them, and to print them
in full requires less than half a
column of our paper. But the
committee will not publish the
new laws, but they will tell you in
every way what the laws mean &C
cording to their construction, but
no section of the law as it really
is will be published this year. Ii
the law was favorable, reaonable

SOME FARMER SENSE.

A man from down on the farm
proposed a tax question the other
day that perplexes the Dawson re-
formers. He said: 81 understood
these new tax bills were going
to relieve us farmers and put the
biggest load On you fellows here
in town who have lots of cash.
But I have been studying the
thing a little and while l am
some rusty in arithmetic, it looks
to me like the farmer got lost in
the shuttle. I have been figuring
something like this: My farm is
now assessed at $1,000 and my
taxes run about 500 a year on
that sum. Under the new assess
ment law the assessor will put
my farm down for $4,000, because
/ can get that for it. If the tax
rate is cut in two, which is not
likely, l will come out of this re-
form business just where | was.
The fellow here in town who has
$1,000 in cash now pays $40 taxes,
same as I do on my farm, but
when this new system of valua-
ton comes in, supposing the rate
Is cut in two, his taxes will be $40
a year and mine will continue at
the same old gait. Now, Brother
Dawson said he was going to let
up on us farmers, but it looks
to me like we got it in the neck. y
Mr.. Dawson and his corps of
political jugglers may have
thought they were smooth enough
to fool the farmers Of this State
by making them believe that they
had given them some relief in tax
alton, but they will find them
selves sadly mistaken.

The Republican papers this
week all contain a short news item
which in substance, announces
that as the Democrats have said
the Republicans were afraid to
publish the new tax laws they, the
Republican tax reformers, are 60
ing to publish and spread broad
cast over the State of West Vir-
ginia 5000 copies of the new tax
laws. What great spread that is
going to be. That amount will be
less than 100 copies of the laws
in each county in the State. The
item was no doubt made up and
sent out from the State Republi-
can headquarters in Parkersburg.
We are satisfied there is not a
single word of truth in the state
ment. If the Republicans wanted
to spread anything "broadcast y
they have sense enough to know
5000 copies would not spread
broadcast over one county in the
State. How far, for instance, will
5000 copies of anything to
over a city the size of Wheeling ?
Merchants who want to thor
eughly bill Sistersville will order
that number of posters printed.
But if the Republicans really,
truly and honestly want to spread
the good tax laws why have they
not been printed in the supple
ments the State is furnishing the
Republican newspapers free gratis
for distribution. This supple
ment is edited and printed in the
Journal office in Parkersburg. 1t
contains enough type and space
each week to publish the tax laws
in full. It would not cost the
State committee a dime more tC
publish the new tax laws as they
are, word for word, than it does
to publish as they do column upor
