 Sly and Clark were here recently and took a deep interest in the irrigation bills that were passed by both houses of the legislature and finally vetoed by Governor Kibbey. 1t was their inten- ton to take advantage of these jaws and expend several hundred thousand dollars bringing desert lands under cul tivation. og slB n0o1 bra ss EeB j When they learned tiiat Governor Kibbey would not permit the bills to become laws, but kept them in his pocket, Sly and Clark were deeply dis appointed, and it is feared by Pinal county people that the. development of their section may be bc'expcnsiyely retard- 'ed.q n ol se 5tGi f30snu q8r oi

Stiff neck is cansed by rheumatism of the muscles of the neck. It is usually confined to one side, or the back of the neck and one side. While it is often quite painful, quick relief may be had by applying Chamberlain's Lini- ment. Not one case of rheumatism in ten requires internal treatment. When there is no fever and no swelling as in muscular and chronic, rheumatism, Chamberlain s Liniment will accomplish more than any internal treatment. For sale by all druggists.

The following letter received by
Prof. P. S. Rose of the A. c. from
Mayor L. G. Weeks of Detroit, Mimi,
well known to many Fargoans indi-
Gates what he thinks of municipal
ownership:
Detroit, Mimi, March 26.-Prof P.
S. Rose: Six years ago the city of
Detroit purchased the electric light
system then in use, at a price OF $16,-
900. A system of waterworks was
owned by the city at that time and
the two systems were placed in charge
Of three commissioners appointed by
the district court. Bonds were issued
to pay for the electric light plant, and
the only expense to the tax payer has
been the interest on the bonds. In the
six years these two systems have
earned $4,000. New mains have cost
$4,000 and $4,000 has been spent for
poles, wires, etc., to replace worn out
material. We have now on hand
$4,000 clear profit as compared to
$1,000 last year Respectfully,
L. C. WEEKS.

BEERS OF YALE TEAM IN DE-
BATE RECENTLY HELD.

J. T. r. O'connor of Grand Forks is
winning splendid reputation In the
east for his forensic abilities. The
Boston Journal of March "a, has the
following account of debate between
Yale and Harvard teams In which he
was one OF the representatives of Yale:
THE negative side of the question,
Resolved, that all corporations en-
gagged in interstate commerce should
be compelled to take out a federal
charter, proved victorious in each OF
the three debates held between Har-
ward. Yale and Princeton in the first
triangular debate between these uni-
versities last evening.
Each was represented by two de-
batting teams, which took part at diff
ferent places. Harvard and Yale de-
bated at Cambridge. in Sanders
theatre, and the crimson, representing
the negative side of the question, won
the debate. Harvard's other team rep
resented the affirmative side OF the
question with Princeton at Princeton
last evening and lost, while Yale and
Princeton debated at New Haven and
the blue won with the negative side OF
the question, making each college win
ming with their negative team and los
ing with their affirmative team.
Harvard and Yale debated in Cam
bridge before a large crowd O'Connor
of Yale was without doubt the best de-
batter of the evening on either team.
His arguments were weighty and we'll
presented. So strong was he that he
even made the men on his own team
amman uyaak and inaffiefent heSfda him
1.-THE judges awarded the decision to
Harvard for more resourcefulness in
argument and better command of the
issues. Yale laid stronger emphasis
on the point that under the present
conditions a single state or group Of
states with lax laws for the incorpor-
alton and regulation of trusts can af-
feet the whole country in evil manner,
while Harvard argued for the present
system as SUFFICIENT to cure the evils
of trusts.
Prof. Samuel Williston of the Har-
ward law law school presided, and the
judges were Prof. James. F. Colby OF
the Dartmouth law school Judge H. K.
Braley of the Massachusetts supreme
court and Dean W. D. Lewis of the
Pennsylvania law school.
Harvard was represented by G. l.

GIVES TESTIMONY
and Is ARRESTED
WILLIAM DALTON, pRAY DRIVER,
sUBPoENAED TO TELL ABOUT
CONDITIONS AS THEY EXIST AT
TOWER CITY, suRPRIsEoAFTER
DEPOSITION is TAKEN.

To be subpoenaed under the prohibit
tion law to submit testimony relative
to conditions as they exist with regard
to violations ofsthe law at Tower City,
and to be placed under arrest on the
charge of bootlegging after his deposit
ton is taken is what happened yester-
day to William Walton, dray driver
OF Tower City. Dalton declares his
arrest unwarranted and promises to
put up a fight to establish his inno-
cence.
The authorities have been active in
Tower City within the past week, no
less than three arrests on the charge
of bootlegging preceding that of Dali
ton. A hotel keeper and a Northern
Pacific telegraph operator were arrest
ed at that town Monday. That the
authorities might know more of condi-
tions there four witnesses were
subpoenaed yesterday under the pro-
hibftion law to give testimony. They
were William Dalton, Arnold Beltman,
James Charles and Henry Beaasch.
These witnesses testified that they
were in the habit of making a pool for
the purchase of liquor. This liquor,
bought in gallon lots, was carried from
the railway station by Dalton, a dray
driver, to the blacksmith shop of
eBeltman. There it was poured into
four bottles, each holding a quart. The
queries in the investigation were put
by States Attorney Fowler. Other
testimony. it is said, came out, leading
the authorities to believe Dalton should
be arrested. Deputy Sheriff J. K
Bingham took the dray driver into
custody. Judge Miller set the date OF
his hearing at 10 O'Clock tomorrow
morning and placed his bonds at $3.50
which he furnished.
Dalton declares that he never
handled the goods without acting as ar
agent.
