The County Poor Farm

In the early days the poor
fund out grew any other item of
expense but two, that the county
had to pay. About that time the
poor farm was purchased to cut
that item down. It had the de-
sired effect, and within a year
there was no one drawing. rat;ons
from the county. The buildings
on the farm were cheap wooden
buildings, and have passed away.
We notice that the item of sup
plies for poor has this quarter
reached the amount of $522. 81
A few such pulls will use suffici-
ent money to build a house and
barn on the farm, which will
likely bring the same result as
before. That is the call would
i'm m ediately drop off and even
tually cease, except for one or
two very old persons or cripples
that we know of.

KILLED UNDER
WAGON WHEELS
FOUR YEAR OLD CHILD MEETS
DEATH UNDER WAGON DRIV-
EN- RY FATHER.

Grand Forks, N. d., Oct. 20.-Erna
Anderson, the 4-year- old child of Mr..
and Mrs. Jorgen Anderson, residing
fifteen miles southwest of Larimore,
was instantly killed by being crushed
under the weels of wagon filled with
coal and driven by her father The ac-
cident occurred at the farm home last
Saturday evening, but first information
of the terrible affair was received in
Larimore and Grand Forks last even
ing. Haf
Mr. Anderson had been in Larirnore
during the day and had purchased a
quantity Of coal. On his arrival home
an older girl and little Erna ran out
to meet him. He warned them away
from the wagon and the eldest of the
children needed him. He was on the
off side of the wagon, having gotten
down to the ground. He was driving
slowly, and on stopping walked around
the back of the wagon, there finding
his little daughter dead.
1t seems that she had tried to climb
onto the wagon while 1t was moving,
falling from the front wheel in such
a manner as to come directly i'm the
path Of the rear Wheel which struck
her head, causing instant death. The
father did not hear her scream and
had no intimation that anything was
wrong until he found her lying on the
ground. He had supposed that she
had gone away from the wagon with
her elder sister.
The Anderson family are Danes
very well known in their community
The funeral was held yesterday after
noon, Rev. p. III. Peterson of North
wood officiating. The burial took
place at the Moraine cemetery.

M'CUMBERAT WILLISTON
Senior Senator Explains His Tariff
Vote Before Meeting
Of Citizens.

Williston Graphic: u. S. Sen. p. ].
McCumber visited Williston yesterday
and at 10:30 in the forenoon he adj
dressed meeting of citizens held in
the commercial club rooms, on the
tariff and other important issues
Every word spoken by the senator
was to the point and he showed quite
plainly the reductions made by con-
gress in the tariff at the special SEES
sion held last summer Senator Nc
Cumber fought for lower tariff on
lumber, iron and oil and the figures
prove that he succeeded in getting
a considerable reduction. At the same
time he worked for the protection of
the farmer of the northwest by fight
ing for the tariff on wheat and barley
and in this he was again successful.
McCumber has been working for years
for an honest grade, an honest inspec-
ton and an honest dockage on our
grain and owing to this fact he has
incurred the displeasure Of the leaders
OF the boards Of trade in the big
grain markets Of the United States
They have even declared that they
would do everything in their power to
secure his defeat at the next election
and 40 elect a senator who would
leave the grain question alone. The
senator's remarks were enthusiastic-
ally received by everyone present and
after his short address he was kept
busy receiving congratulations on the
stand he had taken both on the tariff
and the grain inspection question.

FAIL TO SECURE
EXTRACTION
WARD COUNTY AUTHORITIES uN.
SUCCESSFUL IN EFFORT TO
BRING BACK e. p. SLocuM.

Minot, N. D., Oct. 20.-Deputy Sher-
iff Frank Hofine Of Kenmare has re-
turned from the east, where he had
been in company with Judge Davis Of
the county court. Mr.. HoHine. while
east, made an attempt to secure the ex-
tradition Of Eugene p. Slocum. who il
wanted in Ward county on the charge
of adultery, sworn out against him by
Lars Nelson Of Mohall.
The alleged crime was committed
in 1904, but according to the affidavit
OF the complaining witness Slocum's
whereabouts were not known until
June OF this year.
A hearing was held before the gov
ernor Of Pennsylvania, at which Slocum
was represented by a natorney, and
the attempt to bring him back to North
Dakota was contested. Slocum claims
by affidavit that Nelson was well
aware OF his whereabouts for some
time past and had even made an at
tempt to settle the case for q monetary
consideration. After the matter had
been thoroughly argued before the gov
ernor the papers were refused.
Slocum during the past few years
has been residing in the eastern part
OF Pennsylvania, having married since
his departure from the state.
IT is not expected that any further
action will be taken in the case.

submitted for a perpetual franchise
and minimum charge OF $1.s5 per
thousand feet.
The Minneapolis people offer a
twenty year proposition with provi-
sion for the city purchasing the plant
al that time the appraisers to be made
up of a committee of three, one chos-
eli by the council one by the company
and these two to choose third. They
also place the maximum charge at
$140
The company also agrees to furnish
a high grade Of gas and to guarantee
the installation of five miles of gas
piping before the end Of the first
year after it has been granted. On
the whole this franchise has met with
even more favor than that of MIR.
Guldin and II seems quite probable
that a franchise win be granted to
some company in the not distant flu
ture for a plant here.

JUDGES ABUSE POWER?
Edinburs Tribune Believes Some Dis.
triet Judges Refuse Liquor Per-
npits for Personal Reasons.

Edtnburg Tribune: Under the new
permit law the district Judge is In
vested with arbitrary power. He alone
has the power to grant permits to
druggists, or refuse IL he 80 elects.
This power granted the Judge by stat
ne is discretionary and we have a
right to assume that the judges are
not moved by personal motives in their
use OF this discretionary power
That this is being abused is now
generally known. 1t was anticipated
before a single druggist in the state
had a hearing, in as much as some OF
the judges had openly declared that
they'd refuse to grant a single permit.
This abuse of power by the Judiciary
bodies evil. A repeal of the law will
be necessary I'm order to secure the
equity and Justice which the people
expected from the judiciary and they
failed to get.
Just why a Judge should declare
his intention to refuse to grant q per-
NIT, long before the application comes
up for hearing Is not quite clear, unless
the cause be personal, which OF
course, ought not to be harbored
The druggist ought TO have a fail
hearing and IL he meets with all the
requirements Of the law, the judge
should, without any preconceived
plan of his own. grant a permit.
Judges Pollock, Burke Winchester
and Burr, all refused to grant a sin
gle permit. This might imply the fall
ure of single applicant to qualify in
four judicial districts.
Such a possibility is very remote,
to say the least. On the other hand
1t ia quite evident that personal OBJ
jections moved some OF the judges in
their decisions.

TRIO MADE THEIR GETAWAY
THROUGH A VERY SMALL
OPENING IN CAGE.

Rolla, N. d., Oct. 2O.-By breaking
the lock on the inside cage three in
mates OF the Rolette county Jail eff
fected their escape. Archur b. Kelly,
charged with burglary; Joseph Har-
lowe, charged with violating the pro-
hibition law and VIM. Harris, charged
with carrying concealed weapons,
were the prisoners who made their
getaway. They managed to crawl
through fifteen inch opening from
the cage, through which their meals
were passed. After that it was an
easy matter to go through the out
side window and get away. They
probably headed for the Canadian
line. 1t is supposed that they had a
confederate.

WILL BUILD FIRST
AT JAMESTOWN
PREssYTERIANS WILL USE EN-
DoWMENT FUND THERE BE-
FORE ERECTING A
GUILD HALL.

jamestown, N. D., Oct. 2O.-A Grand
Forks daily contains a long article re-
earding the construction of a guild
hail and dornitory at the state uni
versity, II states that a committee
has been appointed to take this work
In charge and will make arrangements
to purchase a lot for this purpose
with view to building In the near flu
ture.
When asked regarding this matter
today, President Kroeze of the James
town college stated that the article
was a misconstruction of what the
synod had in mind when 1t named this
committee
No plans have been decided upon
whatever" said DR.. Kroeze. 'The
$4,000 endowment fund which this
paper mentions as being intended for
dormitory at Grand Forks, is, in
stead, for the Jamestown college. At
the time of the synod 1t seemed wise
TO appoint a committee co see about
purchasing a lot so that in the future,
should the church wish to put up
such a building they might have
property on which to build.
Fer Jamestown College.
ut was stated to us that property
there would be a. safe investment. ana
would constantly increase in value,
whether or not a building was put UP.
The synod stands as unit for the
Jamestown college. 1t Is necessary TO
secure large fund for the school, and
any investments for further buildings
will be made here first"
AT the time of the synod the plan of
a guild hall and dormi-
tory was approved. DR.. Hugh Jack,
who was present, made a strong argu-
ment against this being done. He said
that the synod could not afford to di-
vide its strength and that money
should be invested buildings for the
jamestown college and that no build
ings should be erected in other cities
until this school was we'll equipped.
AT the close of his speech it was be-
lieved that the plans for Grand Forks
would be dropped.
