A GOLDEN HERO.

Our readers are already familiar
With the tragic details Of the death of
Edward W. Carmack, Of Tennessee,
han which no greater tragedy has
ever befallen our Southland. His
cath is not only a loss to his native
State, but to the South and to the Ma
Jon. We especially deplore his loss
rom our ranks as a leader in temper
nee reform. May God in His infin-
Ite wisdom raise up another man with
he power. the intellect and the eour-
ge Of Senator Carmack to lead OFT
orces against wrong! We print be-

The following eloquent words from
an editorial in 1.-The Christian Advo-

worthy Of careful reading and pre<ar-
ton:
"Senator Carmack has died the

Gone is the great man, but forever

Plans for Elegant Structure Are Now
Being Prepared.
The Minot Elks' building committee
composed Of r. c. Sanborn, DR.. c. F.
Sweet, Geo. w. Kemper, Chas. Grow
and T. P. Murlick, have been working
faithfully the past few days to devise
ways and means whereby the Elks
may build their home this year. So
confident have the Elks been that they
sold the small house on the building
site, removed the same, and the work
OF excavation for the basement has
been going on for several days. The
building committee were given free
hand to select plans, devise ways and
means for raising the necessary
money, and in fact do everything in
the way of preparing for the erection
of the building. 1t is understood that
Architect R. T. Frost Of Minot will
make the sketch desired, and that his
plans will be adopted by the building
committee. The idea is to call for
bids at once and let the contract so
that the new home can be completed
by Sept. l at least. The Elks are de-
termined to build, and will not let any
kind of a barrier stand In their way.
The new home will be credit to the
city of Minot as well as to the Minot
lodge of Elks.

SAFE LOOTED At VALLEY CITY
Three Hundred and Sixteen Dollars
Disappeared.


The Valley City 500 authorities
and the police have been much mysti-
fed over the disappearance from the
safe at the Office of that road of 1916.
A search warrant was issued by Judge
Smith. and all the newspapers en-
Joined to silence and gumshoe hunt
began for the missing coin, but it has
not yet been found. The search war
rant was of no avail, and the missing
coin is yet missing.
E. w. Davis is the day man at the
500 station at North Valley City, and
made up his cash Thursday night and
turned it over to Frank Goers,t who put
it in the safe. The money was in
checks There was $24O in currency
and SIC in the two checks. 1t was in
large envelope and directed to the
First National Bank of Minneapolis.
Mr.. Goers placed the money in the
safe, which, it appears, was not
locked. Several people had access to
the room where the safe was, anil
might have taken the envelope. The
search warrant failed to develop
either clue or money, and the officials
are completely mystified-they do not
appear to have struck the faintest
clue.

Injunction Dissolved,

Judge Charles F. Templeton Of
Grand Forks dissolved the injunction
restraining the commissioners of Nc
Kenzie county from erecting a court
house at Schaefer. A temporary
injunction had been issued some
time ago restraining the commits
sioners. The injunction was Sc
cured by A. E. Henderson, dep
uty sheriff of Mckenzie county, who
is in sympathy with Alexander, the
rival town seeking the county seat.
AS a result of the decision of Judge
Templeton the contract for the new
court house will be let at an early
date, and the work will be rushed as
rapidly as possible. A short time ago
a large part of the town of Schafer
was burned, together with temporary
quarters of the county officers. The
need of court house is therefore
greater than ever.

M. Bregugger of Williston was in

with Gov. Burke regarding the new

In speaking of the irrigation project
at Williston, Mr.. Breugger said they
We're all ready to start the pumps

which time the pumps have been idle,
but will soon be started; that is, as
soon as the farmers have prepared
their land for the use of water.

been secured from Montana, and un-

an early date great deal of land will

However, not great deal is expect
ed the first year, but by the beginniN
of the next season all the country

under cultivation will be watered.
Land values, Mr.. Breugger stated,

were before the works were started by

A sensational charge that one Of the
jurors in the trial of the case Of the
State vs.. A. e. Miller, convicted Of
giving a bride to, Chief of Police
Thomas E. Hagen of Minot, was tam
pered with, was not substantiated by
the facts, as, they were revealed in
the arguing Of a motion for new
trial before Judge Goss.
The charge is based on the AFFIDAVIT:
of E. l.. Sutton and r. M. Andrews OF
the firm of Greenleaf & Leighton, to
the effect that they saw ]. Smith, one
of the jurors, have whispered con-
'versation with States Attorney George

L. w. Gammons, former city attor-
ney, and M. j. Barrett, attorneys. for
Miller, argued that this was one of
the grounds on which they urged a
new trial. The facts brought out
showed that Smith, seeing Judge Pal
da coming into the room, bent over
towards MCGEE and asked him If he
could see Palda, and MCGEE said:
"You will have to get permission
from the court"
Afidavits that this was the only re.
mark made were presented by Mr..
MCGEE. Assistant States Attorney
Murphy and by ]. Smith, the juror.
Gammons and Barrett also argued
that the evidence was not sufficiently

Lewis Brekke, a farmer living near
Walum, shot himself in the forehead,
and will die. His wife says that she
and her husband entered into COM
pact to kill their two children and

They were prepared to carry out
the deed, but their plans were frus-

the Sheyenne river, about fifteen miles
north of Cooperstown. The peddler
passed a nearby farm about month
ago on his way, as he said, to Sharon,
to get consignment of goods. No
name was found by which to identity
the man. He appeared to be only
eighteen or twenty years of age, and
had about $50 on his person. 1t is
supposed that he tried to cross the
river and broke through the ice.

that the 500 railway will make good

Uncle Sam Pays Cash to the indians
4. Hold Big Pows-vNow. e
The Turtle Mountain Indians had
a big pow WOW on the occasion Of re-
ceiving their annual payments from
the government for land bought under
a former treaty.
These annual installments are re.
ceived by, the Indians with great sat
is faction. and the money that they
get is mostly either due to the Indian
traders for the merchandise sold on
credit, or is soon spent for Indian
novelties. One family received as high
as $1,400, and the payments are 800
for each head of the family and each
child. During the payments no trad.
er or white man is allowed nearer
than mile of the paying agent. The
towns nearest Bellcourt. where the
payment was made last week, are
Dunseith, Rolla and st. John, and the
merchants of these towns do a good
business on such occasions.
There are policemen stationed
around the paying post and flags mark
inc Hmlts or the boundary, inside OF
which collectors are not allowed. The
government paid out about 100000
to the noble red men and to his more
or less palefaced family. 1t is said
that the Indians, when they get roll
of currency, do not know what to do
with it. They place little value upon
money, and get rid of it, as a rule,
with great rapidity, investing in things
that strike their fancy, and taking
no thought of the morrow"
One of the Indian traders who has
had matrimonial connections with the
tribe, estimates he will clean up $685.

Friends of Governor Claim Over
500 Delegates in State
Convention.
BRYAN MEN WILL Walk OUT

st. Paul, May IL. = The Minnesota
Democratic state convention to elect
delegates to the national convention
will assemble in st. Paul next Thurs
day, May IA. and instruct the Mime.
sofa delegation to cast twenty-five
votes in the Denver gathering for the
nomination of Gov. John A. johnson
Of this state for the presidency.
Approximately 400 Bryan men, who
have been elected to the state conven-
ton or who are contesting the seat
ing of Johnson delegates, will walk
out of the convention hall as soon as
the regular convention seats the John
son delegates from the contested dis
tricts and hold boiling convention,
which will elect solid Bryan delega.
ton to the Denver convention.
Hints Of Compromise.
At least this is the announced plan
Of the Bryan leaders, and though
there have been hints of a compro-
mise whereby the Bryan men would
consent to the Endorsement of John
son as first choice and of Bryan as
second choice, yet S. A. Stockwell Of
Minneapolis, who is recognized as one
Of the Bryan leaders, said yesterday
afternoon that he believed the war
has been carried too far for compro.
mise.
The regular state convention will
have 935 delegates. OF these the
Johnson men claim to have elected
more than 800 at the county conven-
tons held Saturday. and they concede
the Bryan men less than 100.
Admit Some Contests.
The Johnson men admit that con
tests will be entered from four coun-
ties, with a total of thirty-five votes,
and scott at the threats of the Bryan
men to contest Hennepin county, with
III votes; Ramsey county, with sc
votes, and st. Louis county, with 20
votes.
This is just a scheme" said Frank
A. Day, chairman of the state CON-
mittee and secretary to the governor.
THE contests are not worthy of seri-
GUS consideration. Less than forty
men in Ramsey county held conven-
ton and elected sixty-six Bryan dele.
gates to the state convention.
THE Waseca county convention
contained forty-seven delegates for
Johnson and nineteen delegates for
Bryan, and yet a contest is entered
from that county. The Hennepin
convention was overwhelmingly in
our favor. Duluth, ST. Louis county,
which was considered a Bryan strong
hold, elected an uncontested Johnson
delegation"
The Bryan Side.
On tie other hand. S. A. Stockwell
of Minneapolis said that the contest
from Hernepin county would be en-
tered because the credentials commit
