The Razor In pisrepute.

Judges xvi, II. NJ ss .sS
Hair on man or brute is a sign OF
strength. He who desires to keep at a
safe distance from dentists, let him
keep also at a great distance from the
knife Of the barber. To shave IS an act
against nature. Provoke nature. and
In return nature viii provoke you.
Said Daniel Webster: 4 I. the razor!
1t has taught me to curse. 1t has cost
me more time and more trouble than

language, but before shaving he would

Fargo Forum: Judge B., F. Spalding
Of the supreme court has returned
from Grand Forks where the first ses-
sion of the fall term of the court
closed yesterday. The second session
of this term will open at Bismarck,
Tuesday, Oct. Is, and it is there that
the most important cases on the cal
endar are to be argued.
For fundamental and vital import
ance Judge spalding says that within
the bar of the state it is conceded
that this present term Of the highest
tribunal of the commonwealth is the
most important in the history of the
state, as there are SO many questions,
constitutional and otherwise.
For argument at Bismarck there are
the railroad cases involving the coal
rate and the mileage book cases, the
case as to the establishment of the
county seat of Mckenzie county; the
constitutionality of the law providing
for the publication of internal revenue
tax receipts; the question as to the re-
peal of the law providing reward for
the conviction of blindpiggers; the
validity of the law providing for i'm.
provements adjoining cities of over
5000 population, test carried up by
the citizens of Fargo township; the
constitutionality of the Tenth district
judicial law, the Hazlett murder case
taken up from Sargent county. In this
case there are over 100000 words OF
testimony; then there are the Murphy
and Dahlquist cases, and number
of minor cases. E%5 .@$%
Tonight or tomorrow Judge Spald
! ing will leave for a brief business trip
to Chicago and when he returns he
will resume work on opinions. Judge
Fisk is at Grand Forks taking rest
at his home. Chief Justice Morgan
passed through the city today for Bis
marck where he has rented a house
and where hereafter, he is to be. al
home with a widowed sister.

The decision of the railroad com
mission referred to was handed down
a few months ago. It commanded the
Great Northern and Itasca Elevator
companies to throw open their eleva-

Following this decision the Wisconsin
commissioners had hoped the railroad
companies which agreed to accept it
would consent to partial enforce

Attention, Veterans.

One of the comrades, who does not
care to have his name given, thinks a
good way to fill up the fast depicting
ranks of the g. A. r. Posts and induce
ex-soldiers to join would be to bring
the little bronze button which Is the
badge of membership, more to the
front. Many of these men outside
the brotherhood do not Il realize, IL
they know 1t, that the right TO wear
this button belongs solely TO the
members Of the g. A. Ri, and not 70
all ex-soldiers, that anyone not q
member OF post wearing this badge
Is liable 10 q heavy fine. The priv
ilege OF wearing this little button Is
very dear to the hearts OF che yeter-
ans, and If 1t was clearly understood
the the right to wear 1t was restrict
Led to members of posts many who
lhaye never joined such an organi3a
tion would do so Many OF the posts
throughout the country are finding :

which In many cases Is but 81 a year
hardly enough 10 keep up the organi

A copy of the return of Attorney

Holmes to show cause why he should
not pay warrants drawn in favor Of
informers in blind pig cases has been
filed with Clerk Hoskins of the SUI
preme court Despite the fact that
he had agreed to hearing during the
term of the supreme court at Grand
Forks, the attorney general objects to
the court taking jurisdiction in the
case. The following are the vital
paragraphs in the return of the attor-
ney general: +
Defendant objects to this \ court
taking Jurisdiction of the subject mat

prosecuted in the name of a private
relator who is not entitled to prose

of 1903 has bsen repealed by chapter

Grand Forks Herald: North Da-
kotans are disappointed because Judge
Sanborn of the federal court at Madi-

restraining order, which would permit
OF Wisconsin grain inspection in SUI

Madison yesterday will place another
block on Wisconsin inspection for sew
eral months at least. The Globe In

commission from interfering IN any
manner with the hadling of grain in

panies, but the Globe Injunction was
