SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION
ADJoURNs AFTER SUCCESS
4 ss Full SESSION BY

N The Burleigh County Sunday School
association met in convention at the
First Baptist church in this city Tues
day evening, Rev. G. w. Stewart hav-
ing charge OF the music.
The male quartette composed of
Messrs Stewart, Quirk, Winslow and
Vandevser, sang most acceptably. The
Rev. G. w. Harris conducted the de-
votional service, and, after short
business session, the Rev. John Or
chard Of Fargo, the State superintend-
.ent, gave his deservedly popular adj
dress on the Worlds Sunday School
Convention at Rome, italy The large
audience was greatly pleased and pro-
flied by the laughable occurrences de-
picted during the trip and the many
valuable as well as interesting facts
given by the speaker in his usual
pleasing manner. sss t
s AT the Wednesday morning session
Rev ]. r Kahl Of Mckenzie, had
charge of the devotional service, after
which Rev. Orchard conducted an in
stitute. The information given by
him as to the best methods OF con
Quoting the several departments of a
Sunday school were invaluable, and
his hearers regretted that every Off
Ger and teacher in the county could
not be present and share in the feast
of good things. 55& u.
Rev. Louis Magin conducted the de-
votional service at the afternoon ses.
sion, after which a permanent organi-
cation was effected and the reports

WHAT they SAY

Real Estate Dealer: 1t is a COM
mon thing for some of the country
corresponden of local papers to
write squibs to the effect that a
young blizzard visited this section, :"
or words to that effect. A good many
people also make a blizzard, in their
conversation, out OF a little snow
furry. There is no use in this, as
is gives a hook for enemies Of this
state to hang a story of hard win
tiers beginning at this time of the
year and things like that. 1t is to be
expected in all parts of the temper
ate zone that at this time of the
year light snow storms may come
along and the wind may blow cold
and chilly, but 1t don't do the coun-
try any good to be noting such
things here, or elsewhere. Isl
A Citizen: 1t occurs to me that
this foolishness between the various
classes of the high school has gone
about far enough. AS far as / can
see these nocturnal raids of one
class upon another, the fights and
other disgracefll things that have
passed current in the name of school
sports do little else than make ruff
fans out of the school children.
Judging by the comments of the
grown part of the community it
would be more profitable if the child
renfor these boys and girls are
little else - were in their homes
nights devoting more time to study
and less to lying in wait for school
mates with rotten eggs and other
disorderly proceedings. / understand
two boys were quite badly hurt in a
wire fence the other night as re.
suit of a fight and chase between
classes, and I have heard of other
damage inflicted. Haven't we had
enough of it for this year?

NO cAusEIFoR ALARM

The Bottineau County News appears
to take an unjudicial view of the de-
cision of the supreme court displac-
ing Judge Burr, at least it expresses
itself in unjudicia1 language regard
ing the decision. Political chilean
cry" is one of the terms applied to
the decision, a characterization that
appears to be entirely unjustified. Just
where the political chicanery arises it
will be difficult to explain. Judge
Spalding, Judge Fisk and Judge Nor
gan agreed that the intent of the leg
islature was to hold the Ninth ijudic-
ial district in allegiance until a judge
was elected and qualified, as provided
for in the act. The court was passing
on an appointment of Governor Burke
Judge Fisk was his running mate in a
political campaign and Judge Spalding
was one of his appointees 1t would
appear that the News hasty conclu-
sion was based more on ill temper

It is to be regretted that some of
our newspapers are so jaundiced in
their political views that they must at
tribute everything to politics, and fire.
quently without any more reason Of
common sense than is evidenced in
this case. The Tribune has observed
that the decisions of the supreme
court of the state have been general
1y based on good law and good logic
and at all times, however interpreters
of the law may differ, upon honest be
lief in the justice of the opinion. In
the case in point, the upper court did
not aim to say whether or not the
Ninth district was necessary or whe-
Their Or not the delay of court proceed
ure through the removal of Judge
Burr would be an Inconvenience. 1t
merely said that as it interpreted the
intention of the legislature, it was
to delay the creation of the new dis
trict until the people had an oppor-
tunity to elect their judge. That is
1 all the supreme court was called on to
pass upon and it would appear they
have interpreted the law as 1T has been
interpreted by good many other
students of it.

THE SLOPE VOTE

The editor of the Bathgate Pink
Paper does not agree with the views
of the Penlbina paper that would read
out of the running all of the senator
ial candidates but Hansbrough and
Marshall. The Pink Paper, whose ed :
3itor has been travelling some through
the state, appreciates more than the
average valley newspaper man the
great growth and development of the
western part of the state in the past
few years, and that united Slope
will cut a considerable figure in the
election of a United States isena-
tor.
There are a good many thousand
republican votes on the Missouri Slope
and it is only natural that they will
be inclined to favor a local candi-
date, whose qualifications and ability
are equal to those of any other can.
didate in the field. Officials of the
state are chosen for the whole state
and yet there Is an element of locality
taken into consideration in their
choice. 1t is for this reason that the
supporters of Senator 1fccunsbsr will
not be enthusiastic in the support of
a candidate for. the same office from
an adjoining count because it is
realized that the people Of the state
are not in favor of punching their
representatives in congress.
Fair play, other qualifications being
equal, suggests al gsograp hical consid-
Grafton in the placing Of senators and
congressman. Since statehood, nearly,
the western part OF the state has be- IN
without representation in either
branch OF congress The interests OF
the western part of the state are grow,
|ings its wealth and population are
growing, and a united vote In this
part Of the safe will have an appreci-
able effect In the choice Of a senator
and will have to be taken very ser.
Ii into consideration.

MEMBER OF ASSOCIATED PRESS
ASSAULT ON COMMISSION sYs.
s& TEN

The opponents to the commission
system of governing cities in Des
Ioines, Ia, where the system has
been adopted, have brought an action
TO determine the constitutionality of
the scheme, and the outcome will be
watched with interest by all commune
ties where the adoption of the system
is contemplated. OF this. controversy
the Minneapolis Journal says:
The legal assault upon the Des
Moines plan on the ground that it yio4
lates the constitutions of both the
state and nation will be watched with
interest, though it is difficult to see
wherein the federal constitution is
trayersed. The new scheme of gov
erning cities by a board is contested
on the ground that the federal instrql-
ment provides for republican form
of government. This is construed to
apply to cities, though it has general
~ been held to apply only to states.
Cities are not soversignties. They
are subordinate to the state legislature
and do not necessarily have to con-
form to the sort of government pre-
scrihed for a state unless the state
constitution directs. In Minnesota the
Legislature, since the passage of the
9const itutional amendment allowing
home rule, has passed an enabling act
which declares that cities must adopt a
republican form of government with
an elected mayor and a council Of one
or two houses. But even the commits
sion would not be denied to a city
provided it elected a mayor and called
the commission a common council.
One house of FIVE members would COM
ply with the demand for council.
4 Some of the evils Of city govern
ment in this country have sprung from
the fact that municipalities copied the
federal and state government too
closely. They made charters with pro-
vision for councils Of one or more
chambers and a board for this, that
and everything, from schools to chart
ties. They failed to discriminate be-
tween the acts which legislature is
called upon to perform and the acts
which a council is called upon to do.
The Legislature is supreme in the state
hut in the cities as soon as number
OF boards are set up by law they be-
come Independent of the council and
Of the mayor, too. Responsibility is
divided and soon oozes away. Politics
gets into the boards and the people,
imagining they can cure the fault by
changing mayors, find that they have
the same old set of bad conditions to
contend with. The mayor has been
reformed, but the council and the
boards have not. 1t is impossible to
get at them, because the members are
either appointed or elected by small
separated constituencies not in touch
with one another, and often sWayed
by personal or local motives in the
election of men who are to legislate
for the whole city. g.
The plan that will fix resp possibility
in the city, provided it combines with
that a fair share Of electoral power,
would appear to be the scheme to de-
feat the CRATER, the henchman and the
partizan who today are the bane OF
city government. 4 4. \, n 5s. &. 81

FUMES FROM GAS STOVE

Accidentally asphyxiated by natur-

Woodruff, on Carhart street, Earl ].
Smith aged 20 years, was found
wednesday morning lying In his bed
by his employer, Frank Martin. who
went to the room to waken. him.
Smith had been working for several
weeks at the Martin bakery and
when he did not appear for work at

thinking that he had VverSlept went
TO the house to call his employee.
SIS he entered the door of the room,
he saw Smith lying face downward
in pool of blood ON the bed
Drs. II. Chisholm. J. b. Taylor
and L. l.. Brady. the coroner, were
summoned but the young man was
beyond medical aid. The room was
filled with gas fumes when first en-
tered 1t is supposed that the fumes
escaped from small gast stove,
connected by a small hose to gas
jet Smith had suffered hemor-
rhages of the nose and mouth and
evidently suffered severely before
expiring.
Young Smith was last seen at the
Martin bakery about twelve o'clock,
last night, al which time he left
for his room. He was in good spir-
its at the time and ii Is said that
there was not the slightest cause to
give any credence to a suicide the
ory. He had had a bad cold in his
head for several days and If his room
was filled with gas fumes when he
retired, IL is probable that he could
not detect 1t for that reason. The
| fire in the stove in the room was
| still burning when the physicians
arrived.
lhe deceased was the only son of
Mr.. and Mrs. John d. Smith, of
Waldo. He had lived in Waldo all
his life until about six months ago,
when he came to this city. For a
time he worked for his uncle, J. Il.
Smith, the West End grocer. Earl
Smith was young man of excellent
habits, and his untimely death has
been severe shock to his many
friends both in this city and in
Waldo.

For Construction of a New
Station House.
CENTRAL FIRE LADDIES
Quarters are too Small and
Very Unsatisfactory.
Effort will be Made at Once to
Secure Appropriation for a Fine
New Brick Building.

If the present plans do not mis-
carry, it is entirely probable that
within the next fcw months, work
will be commenced on II new station
house for the Central Fire depart
ment, which is now housed in the
lefty building.
The present quarters of the depart
ment are by far too small and are IN
every way unsatisfactory. The city
| is growing steadily and the depart
mcnt must be increased, but with
the present quarters II is impossible
to add more men or more equipment
/ 1t Is planned to construct large
brick building, to be arranged only
for the uses of the department. at the
corner of the city property on Church
street between Main and Prospect
streets. just east of the present city
building. The building will be alb
solutely necessary within a s'Iort time
and it is believed that by building
Ii now the city can save consiG-
cradle sum of money. The present
market house has proved too small
for the purposes for which 1t was
built, and big addition is neces-
Isary. The plan of the city officials
lis to construct the new building for
the department and to arrange the
first floor of the city building for
the market place. The place will be
amply large for the market for a
long time to come.
In the event that the city decides
ITO erect city building within the
next few years the construction of q
fire department building would be
necessary as it will be impossible to
have the city offices and the depart
ment in the same structure.
1t is hoped that an appropriation
can be secured from the. city couu-
ell at some time in the very near
future, for the above stated purpose.
