SNAKE RIVER
TRIP IS OFF
0. R. & n. Can Not Spare
Steamer for Visiting
Teachers

Those who have been planning to
give the visitors at the Inland EN-
pire Teachers association an excur-
sion up Snake river have been ad-
vised by the officials of the road that
1t will be impossible for the o. r. q
N. to furnish a boat to be used for
such a purpose at that time.
Owing to the fact that the traffic
on the river has been delayed ma
terially by the blockade that has pre-
vailed throughout the winter, and that
great quantities of grain and produce
yet awaits transportation, it is inn
possible to consider the request, and
the entertainment committee will be
forced to look for other means to
meet the emergency.

an OLD TIMER IS DEAD
Pioneer Of Grand Forks County Died
in Alberta, Canada, Recently
An Early Arrival Here.

Word has been received in Granu
Forks of the death recently at the
family home near Cardston, Alberta,
Canada, of James Falconer, at one
time resident of this city, coming
here in the early seventies. In those
days Mr.. Falconer was employed by
the Hudson Bay company on its boats
on the Red river, as a ships carpen-
ter, and being impressed with the fer
tility of the soil in the valley, he,
soon after coming, filed on a claim
adjoining the George Walsh farm
north of Grand Forks. There he lived
for fifteen years afterwards selling to
G. A. Prouty, now deceased, and going
to Montana where he made his resi-
dence for nine years.
Later he and his family removed to
the Canadian Northwest, to Cardston,
Alberta.
Death occurred on Dec. 20, following
brief illness of Bright's disease. The
deceased was in his 18th year. The
surviving family includes wife, three
sons and two daughters all married
with the exception of daughter.
Mr.. Falconer is an uncle Of the
father of Mr.. William Raymond of this
city and the deceased man had many
friends among the old timers and ear
ly day residents of this section.

A VERY PATHETIC INCIDENT
Just Few Days After Funeral Of Prof.
Woodwork, Word Comes Of His
Being Given Pension BY Carnegie
Fund.

Prof H. B. Woodwork whose death
occurred recently, was one of the
thirteen surviving members of the
Dartmouth college class of 1854. A
pathetic incident of Professor Wood
'worth's student death was the fact
that but two days after his funeral
a letter was received from the Carne-
gle foundation notifying him that he
had been voted retiring pension of
$1,000 year for life by the executive
committee Of the Carnegie foundation
in recognition Of his long and highly
valued service in the cause of educa-
ton. 1t will be recalled that the
Carnegie foundation is the name given
to the management of the ten million
dollar trust which Andrew Carnegie
established a few years ago for the
retirement on pension of college pro-
fessors who had rendered long and
distinguished service in the cause Of
education. The president of the foun-
dation is Dr. Henry s. Pritchett, one
of the most distinguished educators
in this country and for many years
president of the Massachusetts, Insti-
tute of Technology. In communicating
the action OF the executive committee,
he paid a fine tribute to the service
which Professor Woodwork had rem
dered to the cause of higher education
in the northwest.

WOULDPRO[H|B|I1H THE.
JUDGES FROM
ACTING
B. g. Skulason Wants Bill
Passed by the Legislature
This Winter.
AGAINST THE PRACTICE
Of County Judges or Clerks
Acting as Attorneys in
Cases Pending.
AGAINST THE PRACTICE

The passage of bill by the North
Dakota legislature this winter, pro-
hibiting county judges and clerks from
acting as counsel or attorney in cases
pending in the county court, will be
urged by the attorneys of the state
this winter. B. G. Skulason of Grand
Forks has taken up the matter, and
in letter addressed to Hon. NJ. A.
Shirley, member of the legislature
he says:
Permit ME to suggest to, you that it
would be we'll for the present legisla-
ture to pass a bill along the line OF
Section 1882 of the Minnesota Codes
for 1905, prohibiting county judges ana
their clerks from acting as counsel or
attorney in cases pending in the coun-
ty court. Several reasons might be
urged why such a law should be en-
acted.
\ Zone Is the work that is thrown on
the judges by reason of their running
the cases through without an attor-
ney; and other and more serious one
is that the county Judge having given
his advice on point of law involved
in case, is often embarrassed by sub
sequent developments in the. case
when contest arises over that point
and when he finds that he has given
erroneous advice, the tendency then is,
of course, to follow the time honored
custom of justices of the peace ana
stick to his first guess; all this to the
miscarriage of justice and prejudice
of rights of litigants; the third rea-
son is that errors frequently creep in
to the probate records, as any lawyer
knows who has had occasion to ex-
anime probate records in their county
courts; the fourth and final reason Is,
that by the present practice the legal
profession is deprived of emoluments
justly belonging to it.
ct would doubtless be we'll to limit
the operation of this law to counties
having certain population as it
would be unpopular in the more
sparsely populated portions of the
state.
1.-The section referred to is as fol-
lows:
'No judge or clerk of any probate
court shall be counsel or attorney in
any action or proceeding for or against
any legatee, heir, creditor, executor,
administrator, guardian or ward over
whom, or whose estate or accounts he
has Jurisdiction by law, nor shall
either of them give counsel or advice,
or draw or prepare any paper relating
to any estate which is or may be
brought before such court, except ci-
tations, orders, DEGREES, executions,
warrants, or subpoenas issuing out of
such court. Nor shall any such clerk,
or the law partner of any probate
judge or clerk appear or practice as
attorney in any matter or proceeding
before such probate court"
