The North Dak0tan's Walk.

H. P Rygmyr returned from
Forest City, Ia, where he went
in an attempt to sell his so acre
farm. When he left four years
ago he could have taken 500 an
acre for it, but today he can get
but $75 an acre. '.The country
has taken a set back" Mr.. Ryg-
myr explained. ''Whv. | could
tell the { minute | crossed
the line into North Dakota by
the peoples walk. People act
differently here. They hustle
and do things" MIR. Rygmyr is
one OF our best farmers, and al
ways has a good word to say for
our state. He says 1t is practi-
cally impossible to rent a farm
in Iowa now, most Of the renters
having moved to North, Dakota
or Canada, securing their own
land.

NELSON PUTS UP
A GAME FIGHT
Minot Man Injuries Arm In the
Gardner Combat Just When
Victory Was in Sight.

In a twenty round hight be-
tween Mark Nelson OF Minot and
Eddie Gardner OF Minneapolis,
at the opera house Wednesday
noon, Nelson sprained his right
elbow SO badly in the eleventh
round that he was compelled to
give up the light. Up to that
time, he had the best OF the
fight, clearly, and once, in the
second round had his opponent
down. Nelson struck Gardner
some very telling blows at will,
and made a target Of his
head especially. He had him
groggy several times. Gardner,
however, can stand an immense
amount OF punishment. Among
the interested spectators at the
contest was Governor Sarles and
staff.
It was unfortunate for Mr..
Nelson that he became disabled
in the eleventh round for his
friends were confident that he
would have won out easily. Mel
sons right arm was very nearly
broken at the elbow joint and is
giving him a good deal of trou-
BILE today, being badly swollen.
Notwithstanding his terrible
pain, Nelson was game until the
end of the round, which by the
way lasted nearly four minutes
and half, giving his adversary
as good as was sent, with only
his good" left wing. The In
dependent hardly believes that
the timekeepers wished to pro-
long the round in order to see
Nelson knocked out, but if they
did they were badly fooled.
Nelson hit Gardner four times
to Gardner's once, and this con-
test shows that the home man is
getting better right along. Their
friends hope to see them come
out together again soon.

No office is OF more Importance
to the taxpayers than the office
of States Attorney. A reckless,
poorly equipped states attorney
can easily spend tens OF thous-
ands OF the peoples money in a
county SO large as Ward; or he
can, by following a conservative,
thorough going policy save tens
of thousands to the taxpayers.
The republicans will make no
mistake in nominating Francis
j. Murphy.
Heavy Rains do Much Damage.
The heavy rains and cloud
bursts last week in the western
part of the state and eastern
Montana raised the ALissouriand
Yellowstone rivers higher than
was ever known before. The
Missouri at Williston is two
miles wide and still rising. The
Northern Hacific bridge over the
Missouri west of Mandan is out
and several Of the west bound
Northern Pacific trains have
passed thru this city The track
west Of Minot is not in the best
OF condition. Engineer O'Flan-
nigan of the Great Northern had
quite narrow escape coming
down from Williston Monday,
two wheels OF his engine sliding
OFF the track and running for
some distance on the ties.
At Glasgow. Mont, many
thousand sheep were drowned by
the floods.

500 ENGINE INJURIES
JOHN MuRMANN
La Crosse, Wis. Laborer Knock
ed From 500 Crossing and Leg
Brdke--=Should Provide Cross
ing With Gates.

John Murmann, a La Crosse,
Wis, laborer, was struck by the
500 switching engine No. 143,
Wednesday afternoon about four
o'clock, and knocked from the
track. His left leg was broken
at the ankle, the bone protruding
from the flesh. The man was
taken to the county hospital,
where the fracture was reduced,
and he will get we'll. Murmann
was drunk and did not know he
was injured until the next morn
ing. The engine was going back
wards twenty-five miles an hour.
This shows that the crossing
ought to be provided with gates,
and a gateman. In time some
one will get killed at this place.

We want those who are advo,
eating the State dispensary to
tell the people why it is that sc
many Of the public schools had
to close earlier this year for a
lack of funds. Where did the
money go? Then let them ex'
plain why it is that with the
large increase Of funds into TIE
treasury from the liquor sales,
the taxes are higher now than
before the dispensary was es'
tablished. These are questions
which are of interest and which
the public should know.
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1906-07-04

The suggestion has been
made. and under present condi-
tions, we think it warranted,
that candidates for the Senate
and Lower House of Representa-
tives be required to state dis
tinctly their positions upon the
LIQUOR question, and the best
way to do this, in our opinion,
is over their signatures in the
county newspapers. It is deplor-
able that circumstances demand
a plain straight forward avowal
upon this question, but the con-
dition is here, and no candidate
for the general assembly should
be permitted to side-track it.
The reason for this require
ment is clear. The next general
assembly will have to settle the
liquor control system in some
way, and every man who aspires
20 represent the people should
make his position known in q
manner that he cannot be mis-
understood. Therefore we say,
as a matter Of fairness, every
candidate, for legislative honors
should publish statement Of
his position, that the people may
read it at their leisure: in their
homes to enable them to reach a
conclusion| Some may contend
it is sufficient for a man to state
his position on the stump, we do
not think so, because at the
meetings there is but little time
given for speeches, and necessa-
rlly the speakers cannot make
themselves as explicit as they
should: and then too, it leaves
room for misunderstanding and
wrong construction.
