WllLlSTON MAYORALTY Deal
Mayor Elect 10 Charged With WhoIe-
sale sribery-Wegley Will Push the
Charges Against the Man Who
Would Succeed Him-Attorneys
Hold Dangerous Precedent Might be
EstabIis shed.

Grand Forks, N. D., May Judge
C. F. Templeton has gone to Williston
to hear evidence in the contest case
of Joseph Wegley VS.. John Bruegger,
involving the Office of mayor OF Will
liston. Bruegger, who is prominent
Democrat of the state, was elected
mayor of Williston by majority of
III votes in the election held early In
the spring. The contest is brought
on the ground that he bribed the vot-
ers of Williston in wholesale man.
ner, by promising that he would &C.
cept no salary, if elected, although an
ordinance providing for salary OF
$500 per year, an increase from $40
per year, formerly paid. Bruegger
made the statement that he would &C.
rept no salary, if elected, at a meet
ing, and in his answer to the COM
plant of the contestant he admits that
he made such statement. He said
that he made the offer in good faith
and without the idea Of bribing the
voters.
Wegeley had been mayor of Willis
ton for two years and the two rival
factions had had many controversies
over the office.
1t is contended by the attorneys for
the contestant that the precedent is
most dangerous one to establish.
1t would give the rich man great
advantage over the poor man in case
he desired an Office for the honor and
possibly the power and advantage it
would give him. With some officers
the offer to throw off the salary would
be in the nature of general bride,
it is insisted

The Fate Of the Fancy Set,

James. aged seven, had been pro-
noted. In recognition of this great
event his father purchased for him the
following things that James insisted
were necessary: @
A box Of one dozen pencils, assorted
leads; one ink and one pencil eraser,
one pencil box with a marvellous roll
top, three copybooks for home work,
two penholders and patent strap that
was marvel Of ingenuity, but some
how or other didn't seem to hold the
books very firmly.

days after and found that it con-

The Cat And The sparrows.

This is a true story with all the
necessary vouchers. says the Cleve-
land Plain Dealer.
An East End family has a cat, a
big grey Tom who answers the name
Of Ben. Ben's natural enemies are
the sparrows. When he can creep
up on one of them and make it's
feathers fly he is delighted.
Some time ago a lot of the little
chatterers settled on the limb of a
tree in Ben's back yard. Ben saw
them and crept foot by foot to the
tree. Up the trunk he cautiously
climbed and finally reached the limb.
At this point the sparrows saw him
and flew to the ground where they
chattered vigorously, Ben in the
meantime watching them from the
limb with hatred in his yellow eyes.
Then without warning the sparrows
suddenly flew up and started a con-
certed onslaught on Monsieur Ben.
The pecked him without mercy, un-
I'll he dropped his head and beat a
demoralized retreat-crying mean
while with pain and rage.
Even as he descended the trunk of
the tree three of the birds followed
him with vicious bills.
When he reached the ground he
ran to his mistress on the porch and
sprang into her arms-the triumph
ant birds withdrawing their fighting
line in good order.

..Yonr Head Or Money!

Mulai Hafid, Sultan and Shereef,
is gifted with grim humor tnat
keeps his courtiers trembling on the
razor-edge of expectancy.
His latest victim is the Kaid OF
Larache, who has recently been on
visit to his Majesty. Certain OF his
position on the coast and uncertain
of his sovereign, the Kaid of Larache
had heretofore refused all invitations
to pay his respects to the new Sui"
tan in Fez. What caused him to re-
lent is not known, but he came, ana
with him came a peace-onerlng Oh
$4,000 and a bale of silk.
Mulai Hafid gave orders that his
visitor should be lodged sumptuously
and fed at his own table. Each night
the Kaid of Larache was convinced
that he had won the confidence and
affection of his sovereign, and boast
ed to his companions that he had
never been asked to give an account
of the revenues of his Office
At last the day came when the
Kaid of Larache decided to return
to his home The caravan was ac-
cordingly prepared, and the Kaid
went to the palace to take leave
of the Sultan.
His Majesty condoled with the
Kaid for having to return to an
Office so improbable that it had ceas-
ed to yield any revenue" and warm
ly congratulated him on his devo-
tlon in Offering his own head in place

COMMERCIAL
Weekly Review of Trade and
Market Reports.

r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review
of Trade says:
Favorable industrial conditions re-
main unchanged and new production
is now proceeding at an enormous
rate. All through the West the
thought and talk of the people is
concerning things actually produced
and wealth created from the soil.
The recent warm weather checked
activity In some mercantile lines and
high prices and speculative develop
ments work unfavorably in others,
and this gives the superficial impress
sion of pause in business revival.
But the basic facts still point to
remarkable Industrial expansion.
Bradstreet's says:
Colder weather and the approach
OF the holiday season have continued
to stimulate retail trade and meas
urably improve reassorting trade
with jobbers, while rains or SHOWS,
while temporarily retarding country
trade by making the roads bad, have
checked excessive growth of or in
sect damage to winter wheat and
given a good quantity of moisture
to the growing plant, thus placing
that crop in good shape to enter the
winter
In wholesale trade there are. how
over, some intimations of cross cur
rents tending to restrict fullest ac-
tivities.

stine is in serious condition. Her
husband says that he heard his wife
scream and, jumping out of bed, saw
some one disappearing down the
stairs. He took his revolver and
fired at the intruder. He then fol-
lowed and found that the man had
made for the interior OF the house
instead of escaping through the
front door. Again he fired, this time
blindly, into the living room. But
just then, he says, he heard his wife
cry out that she was dying and SO
gave up the chase.

Dies Scoring Courts.

Newcastle.--Fred Rosena, an Ital-
ian, was hanged here for the muir
der of his cousin, John Coccho, on
July 12, 1908. From the gallows
the condemned man delivered brief
address to the effect that he had not
been treated fairly by the courts
and that he was going to his death
because he had defended his wife
and family. 1t was jealousy which
caused him to shoot his cousin. Ow-
ing the hysterical condition of the
condemned man 1t was rumored that
the Sheriff would have to chloroform
him in order to proceed with the exc
cution, but this extreme course was
not resorted to.

BABrS SKIN ROUGH AS BARK.
Baby Boy Had Intense Itching Humor
Scratched Till Blood Ran
Found a Cure in Cuticura.

"Our son, two years old, was afflicted
with rash. After he suffered with the
trouble several weeks | took him to the
doctor, but it got worse. The rash ran to-
gether and made large blisters. The little
fellow didn't want to do anything but
scratch and we had to wrap his hands up
to keep bin from tearing the flesh open
till the blood would run. The itching was
intense. The skin ON his back became hard
and rough like the bark on a tree. He
suffered intensely for about three months.
But found remedy III Cuticura Soap and
Cuticura Ointment. The result was almost
magical. That was more than two years
ago and there has not been the slightest
symptom of it since he was cured. j. w.
