WRECK AT LE0NA

In climbing the hill at
Leonard Tuesday morning the
west bound passenger train
over the South western struck
a broken rail. The rear passen-
ger coach was derailed and
thrown on its side in a snow
drift. Although the coach was
filled with passengers no .ne
was seriously hurt. All the
passengers, however. were bad
ly scared, some sustained slight
bruises, aud one woman faint
ed.
The engine with the remain
ing two coaches proceeded to
Leonard where wrecking
crew was organized and sent
back to look after the overturn-
ed car. After a delay of about
two hours the train was able to
continue OH its way, and it is
thought the track will be re
paired sufficiently to permit
the eastbound passenger to
run over 1T and arrive in Fargo
tonight. Forum.

PIGGERS FIGHT BACK,

The Grand Forks Times in
its issue of Tuesday publishes
the following special from Bis
marck.
The sensational prosecu-
lions which have been carried
on in this city during the last
two weeks against E. G. Pat
terson, charged with conduct
ing blind pig, which prosecu-
tons are the acknowledged
work of Governor Burke aud in
which Judge Spalding of the
supreme court, one of Burke's
appoirtees sat as committing
justice OF the peace, took on a
decidedly sensational turn yes
terday when Judge Winche ster
of the sixth district appointed
former Assistant Attorney
General r. N. Stevens and F.
HI. Register of the Bismarck
bar, to prosecute Assistant At
torney General Miller for
ma'feasance in Office. He is
prosecuting the cases against
E. G. Patterson by direction of
the governor. The specific
charge against Miller is that as
assistant states attorney of
Burleigh county, he has per-
sonal knowledge of the exist
ence of violations of the prohi-
bition law in Bismarck and
that he has neglected and re-
fused to prosecute the same.
The supreme court has held
that this is sufficient grounds
for removal from Office and dis
barment."

ELGIN'S LOSS 100000.
This Was In the Six Years the Town
Owned Its Electric Light Plant.

This Was In the Six Years the Town
Owned Its Electric Light Plant.
A municipal electric light plant was
installed in 1888 and leased to a pri-
vate company in 1904. 1t is estimat-
ed that the loss during this period was
at least SlOG.OO0 as compared with
what it would have cost TO light the
streets by contract. A city official.
quoted in THE Business of Municipal
tiles and Private Corporations Com
pared" gives $lOG.73 as moderate
estimate of the annual cost per are.
He says:
The electricians report shows that
the city has been selling light for from
% per cent TO 30 per cent less than
the cost of manufacture Members OF
the electric light department admitted
they could not run economically for
less than $4,000 per year, but they
wanted $4,000. Under our contract
with the private company we light the
same number of lamps and more hours
per year for $l5.G54. saving of SO
900 per year, figuring operating eX-
penscs only. Information from anOth-
er source makes these figures $42,OO0
and $14.326 respectively. Statements
from the light department show that
if proper attention had been given to
repairs of lamps at least $1,000 in coal
would have been saved. Hardly a
joint in our whole forty-fve mile cir
cult is soldered or wrapped; they are
simply twisted together. There is no
estimate of the enormous loss of cur
rent over such loose joints. and yet it
has been so for sixteen years"
The following story shows how this
plant was made to serve the private
ends of the politicians: a mayor who
was a candidate for reelection attend
ed a dance given hy local lodge. No
ticing how brilliantly the hall was
lighted with electric lamps. the mayor
said, "IIow much do you boys pay for
these lightS?" He was told SO per
month. Il will do it for So" replied
the mayor.

Warts on Cows Teats.
Remedies for warts on cows
teats are various. Professor Donald
MclntOsh's idea, as given in American
Agriculturist, is: Tie a strong thread
tightly around the base of each wart
and when it sloughs off apply little
terchloride of antimony to the parts
once to destroy the roots of the wart.
Then mix twenty grains fannie acid
with one ounce each of glycerin and
water; apply little after each milk
ing until the parts are healed. Use a
milk tube to draw OF the m k until
cured.
