 Council, Nov William s. West, the local superintendent of the Wild Goose Company, who left Nome on Tuesday morning last for this city, reached here on Wednesday evening, after enduring considerable difficulty and danger in crossing the Big Skookum diivde. Mir West states that there was a terrific wind storm on the divide, and at times it almost blew him off his feet. For a period of four hours he progressed at the rate of about half a mile an hour, but finally got down into the valley where the wind was not quite so strong. He reached here very much exhausted and with his hands and face rather severely frostbitten. A little salve from the local drug store, and a good meal from one of the local restaurants soon put him in a better physical condition and a .aore pleasant frame of mind

Mrs. Geo. G. Erskine
Was Fatally Burned

irl-law& and George Stone, who came
to the rescue. Failing to smother the
flames with coat Mrs, Erskine was
laid on the floor and covered with a rug
till the flames, were extinguished@ f#
The fire started at the door leading
to the hallway and in an instant the
stairway leading to the second floor
was a mass of flames Mrs. w. H.
Brown, who resides on the second
floor. smelled smoke and rushing to
the door with her infant child, saw
that all retreat was cut off. In a
frenzy she rushed to the window fac
ing the city hall and not waiting to
think OF the consequences, smashed the
inside and storm windows with her
hands and shrieked for help. The FIRE
department by this time was on the
scene and two hremen rushing lup the
back stairway dashed through the
flames and seizing the woman and child
carried them out by a rear stairway.
The woman sustained several ugly
gashes on her hand and arm.
Miss Ellen Johnson and Miss Han
nah Skaug, two sewing girls working
Tor Mrs Borson, were quite seriously
5singed in dashing through the flames
in the hallway to the open air. No
one else was injured with the exception

o'clock from injuries sustained in an
explosion OF gasoline at the home Of
her daughter in ,Crookston, MINI last
Saturday afternoon. szs:
The manner of her death has shock
ed her many friends iii Fargo and es-
pecially are there many sincere regrets
expressed for Mr.. ,Erskine who was
one Of the founders of the First Ma
tional bank of this city, and a man held
in the highest esteem.
Advices from Crookston, today were
to the effect that the body of Mrs. Efs-
kline will be taken at once to Racine,
Wis, where Mr.. and Mrs. Erskine liy-
ed for many years and the funeral and
interment will be held there, perhaps
tomorrow. 1t is said that the. shock
ing accident to his wife has nearly
prostrated Mr. ,Erskine. t#.la 8

individual officers. Section 43o pro-
vides:
"The board shall provide offices at
the county seat for the auditor, treas
urer, register OF deeds, sheriff, judge
of probate, clerk of court, and superin-
tendent of schools, with suitable fur
niture therefore, and fuel for heating
the same, also safes and vaults for the
security and preservation OF books
and papers belonging thereto, and
shall provide necessary books and sta
tionery for use of such officers land
the county surveyor, in counties hav-
ing less than 10000 inhabitants, not
exceeding $Ioo in any one year and
inhabitants shall furnish stationery
and postage and all necessary supplies,
including letter heads and envelopes
for all county officers and for Judges
OF the district court: provided, that
not more than $Ioo shall be appro-
priated for books, stationery and fur
niture for any one Office for any one
year"
Under this provision it will be seen
that the county attorney, judge OF the
district court and county surveyor are
not to be provided with office, but must
provide themselves. III
A test case it is expected will be
brought to the supreme court TO get
ruling on whether or not the county
boards can lawfully furnish officers
with necessities in the way OF postage
and other supplies.

MAY NOT
LAND PRIZE
w. E. Hicks Is Not the Favorite for
the Office Of Superintendent Of
Cleveland Schools.

Il w. E. Hicks, formerly superintend-
ent Of the city schools of Fargo. may
not land the Office Of superintendent of
the schools of Cleveland, %, as inti-
mated in the press dispatches aSfew
days ago.
l.. +. jenkins, a travelling salesman
from Cleveland, is in the city today and
he is inclined to the belief that Calvin
sN. Kendall, superintendent Of the Iii
5dianapolis schools, will land the prize.
Mr.. jenkins left Cleveland Saturday
and is well posted on school matters
there; ;s8s ~
u u . Superintendent Brooks is very pop
tular in Cleveland" said Mr. jenkins,
ssbrt it is almost certain that he will ac-
.cept the offer made by the Boston peos
pie and leave Cleveland. am In
formed the day before ITleft Cleveland
that the majority of the school board in
Cleveland have pledged themselves to
vote for Kendall of Indianapolis. How
ever, Mr.. Kendall is under contrast IN
Indianapolis and il does not expire for
three years. 38s
Mr. Hicks name has been mention
led in educational circles but the gem
Ieral opinion IS that some Cleveland
man will be elected to serve in case
MIR. Kendall cannot secure his release.
There is some talk in Cleveland . ol
raising the salary of the superintend-
1ent to $4,000 year if necessary TO se-
cure Kendall

With ex-Mayor Johnson silent as TO
WHICH promise he PROPOSES to keep that
given the Fargo ministers or that given
the saloon element, the friends Of Mayor
Wall are calling attention to some Of the
distinct features of his administration
In this connection, it is interesting to
note the rate Of taxation for the past
few years, especially noting the decrease
in the tax levy for the time Mayor Wall
has been in Office 81. bt{;5EE II 535s F
The. foregoing figures are official and
can be verified at the county courthouse
When the vast improvements, executed
under Mayor Wallis administration, are
taken into consideration, the reduction
in the tax levy instead of an increase is
remarkable. .1,,.% Sg ss.st .@5 ..
Under other administrations many i'm
proVements were planned but not exc
cuted because it was feared than an In
crease in the tax levy would neces-
sarily follow and this was not desired.

will be elected with ease"
This is the prediction Of pioneer
resident of Fargo who has been closely
identified with former hard fought l1itii1i-
cipal contests. 1t would appear to be
a fact, too. Mayor Wallis supporters
are so confident that he will be reelected
that it is. feared they will not turn out
as they should at the polls.
