but John Ehr made a motion to
give $75 a month for man and
team, which after considerable
discussion was lost. 1t may be
that the matter will be (ompro-
mized by buying a team outright
and keeping them at the city
hall continually, to be on hand
at a moments notice in case OF
fire. If the horses are young,
and the driver clever. it will be
but a few weeks before they
would be in excellent training
and would be worth a great deal
to the city.

also in MlnOt. During the last
two political campaigns Mac ran
the Sunday Eagle, a bright po.
litical weekly which bad more or
less effect on politics in this part
OF the state The writings were
very clever and the paper was
widely circulated.
One Of Macs old friends said,
"Marshall Mcclure did more to
boom Minot than all of the rest
of US combined. Why in the
early days he doomed Minot
when no one else said good
word for the town. Yes, sir,
Minot owes Marshall Mcclure a
whole lot.''
1t is true too. Mac was ever
ready to say a good word for his
town. He was ever ready to do
a friend a favor. He had his
faults and plenty of them like
the rest OF us poor mortals, but
he had his good points. Back
in a little Michigan village, Cedar
Springs, an old lady past ninety
years old mourns today for her
son, for Marshall McClure's
mother still lives. She is a firm
believer in the faith of the Seventh
Day Adventist and brot her son
up in this religion. Mac was a
great reader of the Bible and
knew as much about the word of
God as most preachers. His
father was a Methodist minister.
Mac was identified with state
politics more or less ever since
coming to the territory.
He reported the legislative
proceedings in a very capable
manner for many wears for a
number OF the big eastern dailies.
His political views were excellent
and his Judgment usually right.
AS reporter he faced any danger
to learn the news. Once when a
gang OF politicians met at Yank-
ton, S. D., in the early territorial
days, to form plans to remove
the capital from that city, Mac
secreted himself under the table
in the dining room OF the old
hotel and lay there for hours
getting onto the secrets of the
unscrupulous politicians. When
he could lie still no longer, he got
up in the midst of the startled
fellows and made his way out.
He scooped the rest OF the re-
porters.
Mac started the Devils Lake
Inter- -Oceanyears ago and fought
hard to get the Capital moved
from Bismarck. to Devils Lake.
In his earlier days he was a tele-
graph operator IN Michigan,
then he was a news ''butcher' on
one OF the passenger trains.

MAJOR MURPHY TEST|FIES
The Ward County Politician on
the Stand all Day Saturday,
Going Over the Details Of
Transactions.

Inc nTSC week OF CIe CdhlIlB VI
testimony in :the Murphy trial
closed at Fargo Saturday after
noon and the progress made by
both sides thus far in the trial of
the case indicates that it will re-
quire about half the time it took
at the former trial.
Major Murphy was on the
stand all day Saturday. He took
the witness chair shortly after 3
o'clock Friday afternoon and up
till late Saturday afternoon he
was still being subjected to d.
rect examination by one of his
attorneys, Judge Lauder.
No loophole is being left open
by the defense in it's examination
Of the chief witness. An ex-
haustive review is being made
of all the transactions that Major
Murphy had with road overseers
in Ward county and his methods
Of doing business with them re-
lating to the settlement of road
taxes for. the Great Northern
and 500 railroads.
The testimony of each witness
for the state who testified against
Major Murphy is being taken up
separately and the several trans
actions are being gone over in
detail.
Most of the testimony given
by Major Murphy during the
many hours he was on the stand
was similar to that already CIV
en-.
There were few if any new
phases brought out that were
not presented in the former trial
when Major Murphy was on the
stand for seven days.
J. E. Smith. clerk of court of
Ward county, was the first wit
ness to be called by the defense
Friday afternoon. He testified
as to certain records kept in his
office which pertain to the trans
actions of Major Murphy and the
road overseers in :the different
townships of the county.
A. J. Defiance was the next
witness called and A. j. Lewis,
county auditor of Cass county,
was the last witness to be called
before Major Murphy took the
stand.
Mai. J. S. Murphy was or the
stand again today in the dis.
trict court, being subjected to
cross-examination by Attorney
Townsend. The cross-examina.
tion during the greater part Of
the day was upon the letters
written by Major Murphy to
road overseers at the time that
the investigation of the road
taxes was started in Ward conn.
ty.
In these letters he instructed
the road overseers, so the letters
which were introduced in the
evidence purport, that they
should give out no information
regarding the dealings they had
with him, as it was strictly an
affair between the road over.
seers and the railroad companies,
Attorney Townsend worked
on this part OF the evidence fol
several hours and tried his best
to exact from the witness evi
dence which would be damaging
to himself and his repeated in
