CONTINUED from page 1,

description of some of his early ex-
| periences when he crossed the Red
! River in boat in 1882, and started
houseke eping in house with no roof,
| chimney or floor. Another paper by
Rev. J. F. Berry, formerly of Pembi-
ma and Grand Forks. gave some reco-
| lections of his early work in western
Walsh county,.
The meeting of the first synod in
Fargo in 1885, was made the subject
of an interesting paper by Rev. D..
Williams. Rev. F. w. 1ddings of
Grand Forks, was the first moderator
of the synod. At that time, accord
ing to DR.. Williams, the saloon keep
ers were anxious to assist in getting
a congregation into church, and offer
ed free treats all around to all who
attended One dealer offered fifty
cents to every man who would attend.
When one of the congregation COM
planned after the service that he had
not received his half dollar. the sal
loon keeper told him that he was only
paying that amount for hard cases.
Thursday morning the synod was
formally opened with q sermon by
the retiring moderator, Rev. A. w.
Wright. His theme was 1.-THE Work
of the Minister" and it was a clear
cut, consise statement of the kind of
men who are successful nthe min
istry.
The roll call by the state clerk of
the synod, B. A. FAIL, showed an at
tendance of nearly one hundred. Rev.
Cheesman of White Earth, and a
member of the Minot Presbytery,
was elected moderator, and Robert
H. Myers of Milton, permanent clerk.
The reports of the various perma-
nent committees took up the remain
der of the morning session.
At o'clock Miss Josephine Petrie
of New York, representative of the
'Woman's Board of Home Missions,
gave a very interesting address on
Young ePople's Work" This was fol-
lowed by the report Of the Home
Mission committee, Chas. w. Harris,
chairman. Routine business took up
the time of the synod until 5 o'clock.
The evening meeting was popular
one The synod's male quartette sang
several selections, after which inspir-
ing addresses were given by Miss
Petrie and Rev. John Dixon, D. D.,
secretary Of the Board of Home Mis-
sions.

Thomas F. Walker Pummelled
Harry Goldberg After He
Had Been Robbed.

Thomas T. Walker, a real estate man
from Norcross. Ga, was not in the
Jefferson Market Court to-day when
Harry Goldberg. little rat-featured
man, whom the police say Is Il profess
sona p!ckpocket. was arraIgned on a
charge OF robbery. Goldberg still
showed traces OF the beating he rs.
ceived from MIR. Walker, at Broadway
and Twenty-nfth street, after the
Georgian, who Is accustomed to do his
own police work, dragged him from a
southbound Broadway car and pun
meled MIN almost into insensibility.
The man from Georgia told police
man who hurried up and pried him loose
from Goldberg that the accused man
picked his pocket OF 500 In cash and
$4,000 worth OF bonds. A lawyer who
represented Walker told Magistrate
Steinert that the bonds were not found
on the prisoner and asked that he he
held TIL they could be traced. Mr..
Walker did not mind the loss Of the
money so much, he said.
Big Crowd Assembled.
Policeman Reardon said that he had

What "champerty" Is.

One Of the charges against Attorney
Joseph A. Shay of New York, who
was suspended. for a year, was cham
perty.
We wonder how many people out
side the profession Of law know what
champerty is. We doubt whether the
average man knows whether it is a
food, a disease, or a crime. Cham
perty is taking lawsuits on specula-
ton. If a lawyer makes a bargain
with a client to conduct a case in con-
sideration of receiving a specified per-
centage of the sum involved, in the
event of success, he is guilty of cham
perty. II a lawyer agrees to prosecute
a suit at his own expense on condi.
ton of his taking the bulk of the win.
nings, he is INDUCING in champerty.
Champerty is a punishable offense
by common law, and in some states
by statute. The number of lawyers
who practice champerty in some form
or other Is probably large. Champerty
is an otfense against professional
ethics and an abuse of judicial pro
cesses. The suspension of Attorney
Shay for the practice of champerty
and for other similar professional Of
lenses ought to exercise a wholesome
influence.

Individuality Ia the only real life.
It is breathing the ozone of mental.

living is an excuse, a substitute. a

individuality on every man. Some
people seem to spend most of the
time trying to soak of the stamp.
They wear q uniform opinion, they
seek to keep in step with the line,
they march in solid sameness along
the comfortably paved road of other
peoples thinking. Nature intended

Sale Of Old Army Rifles Stopped.

Sale Of Old Army Rifles Stopped.
1t has been the practice Of the Unit
ed States to sell discarded rifles to
dealers who disposed of them indis.
criminately at low prices. The majori-
ty of such rifles have been going to
South American republics, but a short
time ago a large consignment was
bought by a Spectator and sold in
blocks to department stores in the
larger cities of the country. The de-
partment stores in their turn retailed
the rifles at almost nothing. So many
of them were disposed of in Chicago
that the police department of that
city made complaint that such prac-
hce was dangerous, as it offered an
opportunity for people,to obtain them
so cheaply that the city might be i'm.
periled in times Of strikes and riots.
Protest was made to the United
States authorities, and this, coupled
with the fact that it has for some time
been considered unwise to allow the
rifles to go to South America, caused
the government to prohibit sales to
other than patriotic organizations

THE COUNTY
DADS ASLEEP

The big ditch east Of town has
been completed for some time,
the farmers are ready to harvest
their crops and thresh and haul
their grain to market and there
has been no work done on the
bridge. The steel has been
here for the last three weeks and
still lies where it was thrown
from the car. The farmers. are
anxious, the business men are
beginning to sit up and take
notice and want to know what
our board of county commissions
ers mean by their dilatory action.
In order for the people east OF
here to come to town they must
drive about twelve or fourteen
miles out of their way and rather
than do that they will market in
some other town. This means
that this town will be cut off from
one of the richest sections of it's
territory and the business be
handed to the next in line.

We often hear the claim made
by advocates of the license sys-
TEN that more intoxicants are
consumed in prohibition states
nWherelicenseprevails. Many
people accept this statement as
true without any proof to back it
up. The commissioner of inter-
nal revenue has just issued his
annual report and he gives the
lie to the license advocates. His
report shows that during the ifs.
cal year internal revenue tax
from Whiskey has fallen offff$$55, $780,
s773 while the tax for beer and
other fermented liquors has de-
creased $2,351,2O5. That hard
times or poor business has had
anything to do with this shrink
age is out of the question when
it's known that the inter
nal revenue on tobacco shows an
increase for the year of $2,O24,-
423. The prohibition sentiment
is growing in every part of the
country and in spite of an in
crease in population of more than
ambition ayear, the consumption
9 intoxicants is falling rapidly.

North Dakota sentiment on the
tariff has been more correctly in
terested by Mr.. Gronna than by
any other of the states contin-
gent at washington. He has cast
his vote whenever opportunity
offered, in favor of lower tariff,
and on the last test he voted
against accepting the bill as
agreed on in conference. In this
he stood with most of the Min
nesota members, and with 20 Re
publicans, altogether, out of the
entire Republican membership
in the house. 1t is true that some
important concession have been
made, because the president in
sisted on them. There is room
for difference of opinion as to
whether it is really-better to ac-
cept the bill as it stands and call
it settled for the present, or
throw it overheard and begin
again. One thing is certain-the
present bill falls far short of
what the great masses of the peo-
pie wanted, and while it is in a
great many particulars an i'm
proyement over vhe Dingley law,
it is only a partial improvement
at best.-Grand Forks Herald.

MEN WHO BUILD OUR BRIDGES
Work That Demands Brains and .
Clear Head Invariably Performed
by Americana.

Edward Hungerford describes the,
building of n Of the huge modern,
bridges. OF the men who built 1t he
writes:
Looking closely, n could e al
change in the type Of men who were
to weave the bridge. scandinavians
might toll as 'sandhogs' in the bottom
Of the stream. Lithuanians might
mine the ore and Hungarians roll 1t
into steel-Americans would build
upon all their toll and erect the
bridge. These bridge-builders spoke
no unfamiliar tongue. They yer the
product of Ohio, the middle west, the
south, New England; they rose Inn
measurably superior to every other
class Of labor employed upon the
work. Some Of them had been sailors,
and their talk had the SAVIOR of the'
sea. All Of them were men. men
every inch of them, clear-headed, cool
headed, true-headed men.
IF you came upon them at lunch
hour. sitting high in the s%cafoldings
that surrounded the unfinished towers.
you were impressed by two things:4
their Americanism and their cosmopol-
itanism. The first of these was writ
upon each man as you looked at him;
the second became evident in talk with

sheriff out in Montana, and he must
have been a sheriff for bad men to

his last job-a railroad c%antilever

over by the toolbox were just back
from India. American bridge-building
talent encircles the world. Here was
a boss who got his first training on
the Thebes bridge down in Egypt, and
his assistant did some big work on the
transsiberian.
These bridge-builders like the city.
They like to perch themselves above
q busy river where folk on all the
craft may see them and appreciate. 1t
Is a wonderful task, bridge-building in
