R. H. Emerson, the senior member
of the firm, has been resident of
Minot eight years. So well does he
look after whatever he undertakes,
that he has been called upon to help
the city and county in public way.
He has been alderman of Minot, a
member of the Minot school board and
at the present time is one Of the coun-
ty commissioners from Ward county.
He is an energetic man, and does
more work than the ordinary man.
'It will be done right II Emerson
has anything to do with it," has be-
come comon expression in the
county. He has carried this spirit
into his business. Mr.. Emerson
came to Minot from Grand Forks.
and for years prior to that time, he
was connected with various rail-
roads In Wisconsin and Iowa, as
Master Mechanic. It is no doubt
owing to his training as railroad
man that taught him the lesson Of

(Gross) represented the printers and
delivered touching Grafton on The
Value of Sauer Kraut as a Food"
Other local celebreties were present
including Harry Mitchell of the Com
mercial club and McGovern, who is
somewhat of scrapper, tho claiming
no kin to Terry. Harry Kelley gave
clog dance and the crowd went home,
swearing by all that was good and
bad that the promoters Of the Minot
Paper Co. were good fellows.
Here is a bit of news that will bring
q feeling Of sadness to many Of our
readers. The price of beer Is going to

It gives the Independent consider
able pleasure to present to our read.
ers this week, q picture of Minots
new theatre, the Arcade, and also
those Of the founders, r. H. Emer-
son and his son L. A. Emerson.
The picture cannot do the beauti-
.ful $4,000 structure half justice,
yet the readers can gain some idea
Of its structural form and beauty.
The front Of the building is Of st.
Louis pressed brick with liberal
percentage of Indiana white stone
and there isn't more beautiful
business front in the city. The re-
minder Of the structure is of the
beautiful Denbigh white brick.
The entrance of the building ex-
tends back several feet, giving the
Arcade the appearance of metro
politan theatre, which in reality 1t
is.
The first floor of the building is
occupied exclusively by the Arcade,
which has already grown to be a
very popular moving picture and
vaudeville show.
The basement will be occupied in
about three weeks by J. G. Jobe
proprietor of the Palace barber shop
Mr.. Jobe will have one of the best
shops in the city, with its tile floor
and modern appointments. One Of
his popular features, will be a
ladies bath parlor near the front oi
the room. --

Important to Subscribers

Note carefully this requirement which the Independent
will exact from it's subscribers owing 70 the new ruling
which goes into effect Jan. l, 1908.
On and after Jan. !. 1908, all subscriptions to the
Independent which year past DUE will be
cut off without further notice # for reason you do
not receive your paper, you will know the why
We do not make this requirement because do not
trust subscribers-far from it,
The ruling plainly states, that for all weekly
whose subscribers year arrears
It will be necessary to place one cent stamp on such
papers each week that they go thru the post Office until
such amount has been paid upon those to bring
them within the requirements of the law
This Of course would be practically mpossibility
for it would be for to make careful examina
ton Of 5000 subscriptions each week, which would
keep two men and boy busy.
This law is not aimed at the legitimate newspapers
at the cheap periodicals. which conducted only for
what money they get of their advertisements How
ever the all the United States effected
and all must observe the law strictly newspaper fails
to comply with this law strictly such may be ex
cluded from the mails second class matter and each
copy might have go thru the mails at the rate of
cent for EACH
We think that the government should have given the
newspapers longer time in which to prepare for this ru
ing, but it has not give our subscribers but
short notice.
The independents of the paid up lists
in the state and great many will not be effected, yet
will have observe the rule strictly We do not want
to lose subscriber by this ruling and kindly ask to
enough subscription to entltle to
under the second class rate.
Send in what money you and we will give you the
proper credit and send you receipt by return mail
Stamps checks money orders will be received and
currency, tho the latter will Be sent at senders risk
This will prove excellent thing to both the news
paper and the subscriber in little while tho right it
may not be quite so convenient as the old system.
Altho the Independent may suspend all delinqueuts
from the list who than year past due this will
not that such free from obligations to this
and will expect prompt remittance for all such ac-
counts as are coming to this paper
The Independent trusts that it's subscribers appreciate

HARBOR CASE
A FRIENDLY SUIT
OWNERS EXPECTED TO AGREE
UPON THE PRICE OF $4,000
NAMED BY GOVERNMENT.

1t is expected that the condemnation
suit brought by the United States Gov
eminent to secure title to certain
lands and fishery of Queen Emma at
Pearl Harbor, will be concluded very
soon. The suit is an amicable one and
it is likely that in their answers the
various DEFENDANTS will acquiesce to a
judgment Ior the United States. The
value of the land which consists of
hood411.6 acres is valued in the COM
plant at over $4,000, and the fishery
which contains nearly 200 acres is
placed at $500.
The land ana fishery are required by
the government for fertilization, light
house, and navy yard purposes. The
reason that condemnation proceedings
had to be instituted was because under
the provisions of the will of the late
Queen, the trustees of the estate can
not sell any property.

A BAD ESCAPE
TAYLOR WAS BUT ONE DAY BE.
HIND CHU SEQ IN LAIE-IN.
FORMER DELAYED

Chief of Detectives A. p Taylor
found traces of Chu SEQ the escaped
police station prisoner, in Laie and
other parts Of the Koolaus. At Laie
Chu SEQ has an uncle and he spent
several days there and he was also
seen by numerous Chinese at Kahana
and other points to windward Chu
SEQ had two watches and a ring he
was trying to sell.
The man who came to town the
other day with information Of Chu
SEQ having been seen in Koolauloa
did not go direct to the police but
lost time through sickness and other
causes.
When Taylor went to Laie he was
hut one day behind Chu SEQ and
would probably have caugat his man

Honolulu is likely to see the trans
port Logan soon after she welcomes

to the Associated Press cable of ves-
terday, is to make a special trip here
with mines ordinance and material
The Logan, If reports be true. will also
bring material for fertilization pur-
poses.
Considerable surprise was excited in
this city when the transport Logan ar
rived here from NagasaH one dav
ahead of time and left again in a few
hours for the Coast. While il was
generally believed that Uncle Sam was
not burning coal for extra steaming
merely for the fun of paying for it, the
reason of the rush was not apparent.
Word from Washington, however. of
The special trip planned for the Crook,
which is to bring mines, ordnance and
material for Oahu and will also carry
material for Luzon, furnished the pos
sible clew for the solution Of the I.o-

The Admiral stated that no advices
had been received in regard to any
warships being on the way to Hawaii
and he thought reports to the contra
