Chasing the Wild Horses

Several of the young men of the west
side have established a camp on the
Snake River plains from which to op
crate against the wild horses. A few
years ago they were pretty we'll thinned
out, but no attention has been paid to
them, and now the boys claim they
know the tramping ground of no less
than 1000 head.
They say the horses are not so very
wild, but that they have no respect for
horseman, and on that account are
hard to drive.

Apples in Mckinley Township.

Mr.. C. E. Smith of Mckinley
township brot to this Office today
a twig of one of her Siberian
crab apple trees which was just
loaded with a fine specimen of
the fruit. She has four of the
trees bearing and there will be a
large number of bushels of fruit
on them. The trees fairly groan
under the weight Of the apples.
The Independent has always
contended that apples would
grow in North Dakota, and we
are very glad that Mrs. Smith
has demonstrated that they will
do we'll. Every farmer ought to
set out a few of these trees.
They are but a few years old and
the fruit will be worth a good
many dollars each year.

Several men who were in the

VIM. Hartman, proprietor Of
the Elite Steam laundry, turned
in the fire alarm and soon a
great crowd of citizens gathered.
Officer Mckone arrested the

seriously injured. The other
got off without q scratch.
Mrs. Waggeneer, wife of the
proprietor Of the Pantorium,

shooting, and q bullet passed
thru the side of the building and
struck her in the arm, leaving a
very sore spot but not penetrat-

almost spent it's force. 1t was
found in the woman's sleeve.

That Buttermilk Campaign.

Because the Independent men
toned the fact in a recent issue
that U. S. Senator Hansbrough
liked buttermilk and didn't like
booze, Bro. Falkenstein of the
Bottineau Nus takes it for
granted that the Independent
will support the senior senator.
Why, you poor little half-starved,
weazling. distorted Drained indi-
vidual. When we get ready to
declare ourselves for any candi-
date we will find something more
to say in their favor than the
mere fact that they like butter
milk, or that they don't like
cheese. No, we're not running
a buttermilk campaign for any
one. And say, Falky, why are
you always suspecting that the
newspaper boys are selling out?
You must be Judging them by
what you would like to do. You
know that you kept dragging at
the political teat as long as you
could, didn't you, and when the
big fellows found that the people
didn't take any stock in what
you had to say, they dropped

Arrested for Petty Larceny.

Williston, N. d., July 20. n
Hazel Mckinney Squires is under
arrest, charged with petty larceny,
the mother of the husband max
ing the complaint in this instance.
The arrest was made by Deputy
Sheriff Mckay and James Hob
bins, who drove to Squires post
office and took the young woman
in charge. The complaint!charges
that Hazel took and feloniously
appropriated to her own use diff
ferent articles Of fancy work of
assorted textures, the same be-
longing to Mrs. w. |. Squires.
The case will come up before
Justice Poe.
The prisoner was arrested dur
ing the last term Of court and
charged with stealing a number
of skirts from a closet in the
Great Northern hotel. She was
released by order Of Van r.
Brown, and was later re-arrested
and that night was married to
young Squires, who brought A.
L. Butler to the Jail anu had the
knot tied. The next day the
woman was released up,n bond
signed by her husband, the gen.
eral view being that she would
not be prosecuted as long as she
behaved herself, as she had paid
for the stolen wearing apparel
after her arrest. The relatives
of her husband have not taken
kindly to her being domiciled
there. She formerly lived at
Culberts0n.

aged about 60 years aad living
abont twelve miles south of Ia
gus, was killed by lightning dur
ing the storm last Monday even
ing. He, together with his two
sons, were in the yard attending
to some stock when the sudden
summons came. 1t seems that
the three were together when
the bolt struck the old gentle
man, killing him instantly and
rendering the two boys uncon-
scious for some time, and when
they came to they found their
father in the cold embrace Of
death.
Deceased had just returned
from Minot about half an hour
before, where he had been to
make final proof on his land and
was about to reap the results Of
a life Of industry and toll. He
leaves two sons, who reside in
this vicinity, and a married
daughter, who lives in Wiscon~
sin, to mourn his death. The re.
mains were shipped to his old
home in Wisconsin where they
will be inferred beside those of
his wife. We extend our heart
felt sympathy to the sorrowing
relatives in this their hour Of be-
reavement.
