Notwithstanding the higher prices
of building materials and the difficulty
OF obtaining workmen, there is a
notable and. gratifying increase in the
number of residences being erected
in the Capital City at this time. It is
gratifying, both because of the sub
stantiaI additions made to the extent
OF the city, and for the reason that

A report of the U. S. Geological sur
vey on the coal production of the state
for 1905 gives the quantity of coal
mined at $4,000 tons and the value of
the coal at s424,000. 1t is likely this
total is considerably below the actual
volume of coal mined in the state for
the reason that many mines are
operated on a small scale and no re-
port of the production is possible to
obtain. The significance of the fig
ures lies, however, in the fact that
they show a large increase over previ-
GUS years, so that it is evident the use
of native coal in the state is increas-
ing. Ignite in the course of time
will come to be source of more
wealth to the state than is now con-
templated and will be distributed over
a much wider field than now.

The death of Hon. B. S. Russell Of
jamestown Sunday morning will be
learned with regret through the entire
state. Mr.. Russell was always an
ardent North Dakotan and he was
frequently and substantially honored
by his fellow citizens. One of the last
official actions he was called upon to
perform was to deliver the presi-
Dental vote of the electors in North
Dakota at WASHINGTON upon the cleo.
ton of President Roosevelt. Particu
larly fitting was his choice as the mes.
senger of North Dakota since he was
perhaps the oldest republican in the
state, in point of service with the
party, having been one of the movers
in it's formation. Personally Mr.. Rus
sell was courteous and honorable
gentleman, a good citizen and pub
lie spirited man. Although his life
was ripe with years and honors, there
will be many to regret that he might
not have been spared little longer.

1t is by no means strange that three
Or four criminals find it simple mat
ter to elbow a bank in small town
and make away with the loot Bank
buildings in new towns are by no
means substantial structures difficult
of entrance. It is not practicable to
make them so, since, like other build
fngs in a new town, they must be
erected hurriedly and the extent Of
business does not warrant solid
masonry and burglar proof doors.
Neither can the small bank in the
west afford the burglar proof safes
and devices common to old and
wealthy institutions in more settled
communities. Police protection at
night is a luxury frontier towns do
not afford to such degree as to make
robbery of any sort difficult. So that,
familiar with the surroundings and
choosing an hour when all or nearly
all of the residents of the town are
abed and sleeping, the burglary of a
bank in small town is not an ex.
sremely difficult matter. The princi
pal difficulty lies in getting away after
the burglary is accomplished. Ill got
ten wealth of the sort obtained in this
way usually leads to the undoing Of
the participators. SO that 1t is more
than likely that the perpetrators Of
the recent robbery in Mclean county
will finally be captured and that long
terms in the penitentiary will give
them an opportunity to reflect upon
the superior happiness of life that il
virtuous and full of honest endeayor.

BAR ASSOCIATION MEETING.

The following circular letter, which
is self explanatory, is being sent out
by Secretary Thomas, of Leeds, N. D.,
to the members of The Bar Aassocia-
ton of North Dakota. There is every
reason why every lawyer in the state
should become a member of the asso-
citation. Any of those who have not
enrolled themselves as such should do
so at once. Full particulars may be
had by ADDRESSING the secretary of the
association. l..
With the excellent speakers en-
gagged for this meeting, its success is
already assured. The letter is as fol-
lows:
"You are hereby notified that the
annual meeting Of The Bar Associa-
ton of North Dakota will convene at
Grand Forks on the afternoon of the
18th of this month. Business of I'M
usual Importance will come up then.
Elm the evening addresses will be
delivered before the association by
Hon. Frank B. Kellogg of St. Paul,
and Hon. Charles F. Amidon of Fargo,
judge of the United States district
and circuit courts for this district.
The selection of Mr.. Kellogg by the
Department Of Justice of the United
States as special prosecutor in the
Trust and STANDARD Oil cases hints at
his worth and ability. AS to Judge
Amidon, nothing 1 could say here
would enhance the high regard in
which he is held by laymen and law
yers alike. >%}% n
*tAll members of the association
should not fail to be present on that
occasion as it is confidently believed
that the coming meeting will be more
largely attended and the best in the
history of the association. This is
not a mere announcement but an ex-
preston of what we fully and con-
fidently believe.
Full particulars later.
w. H. Thomas, sec'y."

PERILS Of MISSOURI river STEAMBOATING.
CONTINUED from page ~

r. = & So |-E
The defense was that the defend
ants pilot had followed the strict
rules of steamboating, and the other
pilot had not. -
The main question was whether the
defendants pilot, when he saw the
danger, should not have given way If
possible, even if the other pilot was
violating the rules, whether through
willfulness Or, ignorance. = -,
La Barge was asked what course he
would have pursued in the. premises.
He replied that, under any circum.
stances, it was a pilots duty to avoid
accident, if possible. The court
agreed with this view.
The rest Of the voyage OF the MIN
rod passed off without noteworthy
incident.

AN INTERESTING CASE.

Does Man Lose His Homestead
Rights Upon Being Divorced From
His Wife.
An interesting case to lawyers was
before the county court of Barnes
county few days ago. The Valley
City Times-Record thus reports it:
1t appears that L. Holcomb, who
lived on a farm some twelve miles
northeast of the city, died three days
after having been granted divorce
from his wife. The marriage had re-
suited in one child, Emory, aged eight,
who had been given into the custody
Of Mrs. Holcomb. The administrator
desired to sell the farm to pay the
debts of the estate, but the friends of
the child objected. They commended
that the divorce did not destroy the
homestead rights of Holcomb and that
the farm cannot be touched except by
! special liens and that as homestead,
1t must pass to the heir, exempt from
seizure for general debt. n On the
other hand the administrators attor.
Iney contends that in securing a
divorce, Holcomb lost his rights as a
man Of family and the family home.

and is subject to seizure for debt Of
general nature. The point has never
been raised before in this state and
has never been directly settled BY any

The Valley City Times-Record says
that Stewart, the Grand Forks Even
ing Times cartoonist, who went on a
vacation some weeks since, is now
permanently located at Fort Wayne,
Ind. Stewart was a prince of good
fellows and it is to be regretted that
some one put the notion into his head
that he was a cartoonist.
