MINOT OPTIC IN
HANDS OF A RECEIVER

The Grand Forks Herald commenting
on the present trouble OF the Mlnot
Optic says:
On application of the Second National
Bank Of Minot, in an action to foreclose
mortgage, Judge Fisk yesterday morn
ing appointed R. G. Sa1born as receiver
of the newspaper property. Heiner d
Palmer, owners of the newspaper pro-
perty are cited to appear in the district
court Saturday and show cause why the
receivership should not be continued.
When the present Hners of the paper
came in possession of the property. a
second mortgage was given to the
Second National bank for $500, M. s.
Williams holding first mortgage for
$1,000. The Indebtedness to the bank
has grown to something like 5000, and
a conservative estimate of the material
places it's value at. thousand dollars
less than this amount, not taking the
circulation and good will Of the Daily
and Weekly Optic into consideration.
The Optic was established several
years ago by Marshall Mcclure and
since that time has had several pro-
prietors. Palmer q Heiner have made
a good newspaper out of the Optic, but
the claims against it held by the bank
and Mr.. Williams will probably mean that
there will be a change of proprietors.
There is little done at Minot but has
some political significance, but what this
presages in political way does not ap-
pear by the proceedings so far.

P.V. Mccoy finds that his Jew
jelry business is SO rushing that
he has engaged a second jeweler,

has been compelled also to add
an extra druggist, f. P. Taylor,
from st. Peter. Mimi. Mr.. Nc
Coy advertises exclusively his
ie~elry aud drug business in the
INDEPENDENT, which fact is
a moral in itself. In this
day and age OF the bust
ness world, the man who is
not afraid to use the printers
ink , is the man who does the
business. Less than three years
ago Mr.. Mccoy started his bust
ness with one clerk and nows en-
ploys six.

THE BEST BUTTER
N the STATE

The Minot Creamery was REPRESENTED
at the state fair at Grand Forks last
week by the manager. Mr.. Thompson,
and the sample of fine print butter
carried off the second prize, over compe-
titors from all over North Dakota and
Minnesota. A Minnesota butter maker
took the first premium. The Minot
creamery was the only one in the state
which secured any recognition at all.
The butter maker at the creamery Mr..
Knudson naturally feels a little proud
over the fact that his butter ranked so
we'll, it averaging 931a per cent. Minot
should appreciate her creamery.

Can't Lose Him.

Yesterday afternoon when the i'm
migration agents came to town Harry
Everett was among those who turned
out with his best trap and team to
help in receiving and entertaining the
guests. After the photograph had
been made of the bunch of citizens and
visitors, the crowd all came around the
depot and got into the vehicles and
drove off in a procession. Harry
picked him out three congenial visit
ors and headed for his trap or the
place where he had hitched. But he
was delayed in getting to the spot and
when he did arrive with his guests
some one had already occupied his
trap and lit out with it. And all of the
other vehicles were gone as well. The
only thing left was a public hack.
Harry sized up the situation at a
glance and without batting an eye
threw open the door OF the carriage
and said: 'Gentlemen, this is my car
riage; get in" They got in, and we'Il
bet they had good time, too. The
joke was on Harry, all right, but the
guests did't know it.

its policy has been right in the past is
fully attested by the splendid business

tested by the fact that safe and con-

IMMIGRATION AGENTS VISIT HERE

Yesterday afternoon a little after
three O'Clock the special train bearing
the Missouri Pacific immigration
agents arrived in the city with about
one hundred and fifty members OF the
organization on board. On arriving
at the station the visitors we're met by
a large committee of citizens, and
after lining up on the bluff south of
the tracks from the depot and being
photographed, the entire party was
escorted to carriages in waiting and
taken for short drive over the city.
After the drive light refreshments
were served by the ladies of the city.
Palestine daily herald. [volume] (Palestine, Tex.) 1902-1949, 1905-05-24

The visit here, while of very brief du-
ration, was none the less pleasant, and
the visitors carried away a good
Impression of the city. They made
another stop later in the afternoon at
Jacksonville, and in the evening were
the guests of the little city of Troupe.
From Troupe the party went direct to
st. Louis. This association held two
days meeting in San Antonio, and
after the meeting made tour of the
state over the Gould lines. They were
very favorably impressed with the
greatness of Texas and her marvellous
possibilities.
