In the Judge Burr case the opening
argument was made by Judge Enge.
rud, representing the interests who de.
sire that the Ninth district be declared
to have no existence in fact and that
the appointment of Judge Burr by
Gov. John Burke was unconstitutional.
Judge Engerud was followed by At.
torney Purcell of Wahpeton, who
championed the appointment for
Judge Burr, made the next argument
and Attorney A. NJ. Christianson of
Towner, closed with arguments in
favor of ousting the Judge.
The argument related to three feat.
ures of laws passed by the Legislature
last winter, one creating the Ninth ju.
dicial district, another creating the
Tenth district ana the constitutionali-
ty of paragraphs and OF the bill
creating the Ninth district.
The paragraphs referred to provide
that the district shall not be fact I'M
til Jan l, 1909, and the judge shall be
elected at the election in November,
1908. 1t was contended by the attor.
neys for Judge Burr that the two par.
agraphs named were void for the rea-
son that the same were not included
in the title of the bill.
An early decision in the case is ex-
pected.

the labor troubles is the impetus they
have given to emigration. Disguised

Michael Alger. the Norwegian cor.
respondent, writes as follows on the
industrial awakening in Norway, to
which we have often referred in these
columns:
Norway is recovering slowly but
surely from the big crash of 1899. This
is noticeable in many respects. Fore
most of all comes the starting of a
great number of new Industrial plants,
mainly wood pulp factories and paper
mills. and Of equal ii not still greater
Importance the opening up of many
mines in the northern part of the
country. The small town of Narvik,
at the terminus of the railroad from
Sweden is now an iron ore export port

greatest part of the ore exported from
this is, however. produced in Sweden,
but the Norwegian treasury derives
quite an income from this source from

LAWS VALIDITY IS ASSAlLED
North Dakota Supreme Court Hears Argument-Case In
voving License Statute Is in Three Courts.

After hearing arguments in the
cases OF Judge Burr of the Ninth dis
tlict in the custer proceedings brought
against him and receiving an applica-
ton for writ OF habeas corpus in the
case of r. c. Flaherty of McCanna ac-
cused of violating the law in failing to
advertise and report his liquor license,
the supreme court of North Dakota ad-
iourned the special session held at
Grand Forks.
Flaherty was released under bond
and States Attorney Wineman, who
opposes the granting of the writ, and
Judge Engerud. who favors it. will file
briefs within ten days. so that the
matter can be disposed of before any
great length of time.
Flaherty's case was in three courts
during the day. He waived examina-
ton before Judge Church and was
held to the district court. Judge
Templeton of the district court declin-
ed to honor writ of habeas corpus
asked on the ground that the law is
unconstitutional and application was
made to the supreme court late in the
afternoon.
The case involves the constitutional.
ity of the law requiring all dealers of
malt and intoxicating liquor of all
kinds to publish the fact that they
possess government license in the
newspapers and pay fee of SO to the
city or county auditor. In the case
pending the malt interests are fighting
the case for Flaherty.

that the judge had come down on Of
fetal business, Mr.. Evans thought the
opportunity too good to be allowed to

marriage. The bride-to.be replied in
the affirmative, and the Judge and
their friends were hurriedly summon.

There was no time to don their
finery. as the judges train was al
most due, SO the couple appeared in
their working clothes, the bridegroom
being in his shirt sleeves and with his
trousers tucked in his spurred cowboy
boots. When the Judge propounded
the question, do you take this wo-
man to be your lawfully welded
wife," Evans replied with great unc-
ton: you bet your life."
Proprietor Johnson of the hotel gave
the bride away. Harry Atkinson was
best man and Anna Molitor brides
maid.
The bridegroom is local cowboy
and is extremely popular. The bride
is. comparatively speaking, stranger

ing known her only couple of weeks.

Denmark, but the expectations of the
promoters of the "anti-rats" law have
fallen far below their realization. The
rodents seem to have abandoned the
cities and villages and are in the coun.

they are much harder to get at than
in the towns. The result is that q
