The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1906-06-18

Since the exposure of the state
printing graft by The Evening Times
other evidence of such deals effecting
the county printing in Grand Forks
county is coming to light. A number
of reputable citizens heard a gentle
man engaged in the printing business
in this city say on the street recently
that the Grand Forks Herald had paid
him for keeping out of the county
printing of this county for the last ten
years. A further evidence of the ex-
tortionate prices paid is that two years
ago the county paid the Herald $27
per thousand for printing the election
ballots, while this year The Evening
Times bid SO pei thousand on the
primary election ballots. which are
nearly as expensive as the regular
election ballots. and The Evening
Times is making a legitimate profit on
the work at that price. Still further,
the Herald attempted to get the county
commissioners to enter into contract
with it for the county printing before
The Evening Times had reached the
age sufficient to qualify it as legal
paper, but the commissioners refused
to do so. These are some of the rea-
sons why The Evening Times was
established, and the people can decide
for themselves whether or not there
was need of a new paper. u
Surprising, just for the sake of argu-
ment, that the present leaders of the
republican party in North Dakota are
as black as the Herald and papers of
similar kidney have painted them,
wherein would the people of the state
be the gamer by replacing them with
such notorious and discarded political
heelers as Messrs. Winship, Spalding,
Devine and Murphy are known to be?
These worthless were simply and solely
the creatures of what they now desig-
nate as "the old gang" and until they
were repudiated and discarded by
their political creator were ever it's
plant and willing tools. Is it possible
for the stream to be purer than it's
source? Can the taxpayers of the
state afford to trust the financial af-
fairs of the commonwealth in the
hands OF a coterie of self-seeking poll
teal leeches who have proved SO re-
creant to the trust rerosed in them in
the past?

Sporting Editor The Evening Journal
see that X-Wilmington is going to
put a very strong team in the field on
Saturday against Dover, but what do
we care. Tell the people Of your city
for us that we don't care who they
play. We are coming up with the same
team that we had when we last played
in Wilmington, and we fully think that
1t Is plenty fast enough to beat xviii
mington' or any other semi professional
team in the country. The fans Of our
town are simply mad over the game
and at least 200 rooters win accompany
the team. You know our town is not
"a big one, but when it comes to putting
a frst-cliass ball team in the field just
count on US. Here is the way we will
line up:

partridges this fall. opinions seem to
differ Some OF the hunters say last
winter was such severe one that
many birds perished, while others who
have taken rambles i'm the woods, say
they have come across quite a number
Of quail.
Last fan. foreigners took to the
woods before the law was off. and
made gama Of about everything that
came within range. Robins and other
song birds were bagged and no atten-
tion whatever was paid to the law
This year it is honed a watch will be
kept on this variety Of sportsmen. and

more than anything else TO break up
the practice.

Lauraville, Hartford Road.--We were
treated to the heaviest snow storm OF the season
on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week and
it put damper ON all the farmers who had
planned to do a lot of planting this week. The
snow storm must be bad for Winder who has
no house to sleep in at night, owing 10 the
vigilance of the police.
Lauraville Volunteer Fire Company is
planning celebration for Easter Monday, when
they will have their new truck. They expect
to parade through the village.
lauraville had its first fire since the above
company was organized last Monday. While
it did not amount to much it served to show
how quick the volunteers could get together and
to work. Owing to the prompt arrival of the
Gardenvile Chemical Company and the Laura
Vile volunteers the fire was quickly put out.
The work of putting up the electric lights at
Lauraville and vicinity is progressing very
WELL This weeks weather, however, put a
temporary stop to it.
There is some talk of the Consolidated Gas
Company laying mains out the Hartford road
to Lauraville and Hamilton; in fact there has
been several agents around to find out about
how many persons are willing to take the gas.
All the connections to ranges are made free OF
charge, the only cost being for the range.
Measles seem to have the lead in sickness in
this neighborhood just now. II.

He has now secured the cooperation of the
Maryland & Pennsylvania Railroad in con-
Quoting a dairy special, in which he has the
active cooperation of Secretary Wilson, the

improvement of agriculture. We are glad to
see Eastern people adopting these Western
methods. 1t means that eventually there will
be a revival of agriculture in all the Eastern

our folks were preparing their hot-beds last

very interesting series of meetings is being
held at Pine Grove Church by Rev. f. B. EN-
enheiser. Nine persons have already protested
conversion. The handsome chandelier which
hangs in the center of this church has given
out and the officials have secured TWO large
lamps in its stead.
Great interest seems to center in the Knights
of Pythias Lodge at this place, which meets

Some of our people are a little apprehensive,
if the county authorities do not soon capture
the fugitive criminal Winder, that he may
wend bis way to what is known as the Devils
Back BONE" not far distant from this place, to
continue the game of hide and seek which he
has very successfully played for the last week.
In this case they think he would call upon us
for rations. But as wild hog is plentiful in
that secluded haunt he could spend the re-
mainder of his life there and grow fat, with
out fear of molestation. b.
