Central at Kramer

A. w. Hofacker, mechanical
superintendent of the Northern

town Monday and Tuesday
making arrangements looking
to the installation at this point

not decided on any particular
location for the station but will
probably do so during his next

INTERESTING PROCEEDINGS
TO Be Instituted in Ninth District to
Gust Judge Burr.

Legal proceedings are to be
instituted to GUST from office
Judge Burr of the Ninth judi
cial district.
Judge Burr was appointed by
Governor Burke in July to be
judge of the new district which
was created by the legislature
last winter. In order that Gov
ernor Burke would not have a
chance to appoint democrat
to office certain members of the
legislature so worded the bill
creating the new judicial dis
trict before its passage as to
satisfy themselves that it would
not go into effect for two years.
Governor Burke construed
the wording of the law to mean
that it was in effect July 1 and
acted accordingly. Judge Burr
has been holding court in the
district since being appointed,
and is at present engaged in
trial of cases at Rugby.
Attorney A. NJ. Christensen,
of Rugby, is in charge of the
proceedings to oust Judge
Burr.
When asked about the pro-
ceeding Judge Burr stated over
the long distance telephone last
night that he understood that
a movement to depose him was
in progress, but no papers had
yet been served on him. The
Judge will vigorously oppose
the proceedings. s.-Grand Forks

THE CHANGED ROSE

The White Rose leaned her stainless heart,
To the Red Rose at her feet;
Oh, never was red red Rose as false:
Or White Rose half as sweet.
She breathed, Beloved" shall draw
You up to my own fair height,
Then shall we laugh at a mocking world,
When my red rose, blooms White.
I of the mocking world leaned out
AS they touched my window sill,
And saw a white heart crimson stained
But red was the red rose still.
