"BILLY" SUNDAY
MAY CONE HERE
MOVE STARTED BY THE FARGO
MooRHEAD YOUNG PEoPLEs'
UNION TO GET GREAT EVAN
eELlsT-WlLL COME If HE is
REALLY WANTED.

1t is possible that Billy" Sunday,
the famous evangelist will be secured
to hold series of revival services in
Fargo this fall or winter.
The move to secure Sunday has been
started by the Fargo Moorhead Young
Peoples union, the society composed
of the different christian endeavors
and young peoples societies of the two
cities At a meeting of the executive
committee of that organization held
last evening It was decided to take the
matter up with the Ministerial associa-
tion of Fargo and Moorhead. A COM
mittee was appointed to confer with
the Ministerial association and II the
ministers are in favor of going ahead
with the move 1t will be taken up In
a systematic manner.
Sunday lis said to be willing TO come
to Fargo this fall provided the church
people OF the city are united In wish
ing him to come and show that they
will support his work.
IL he comes a temporary tabernacle
will have to be built which would cost
several thousand dollars. This money
must be raised by the people Of the
city in advance. Sundays architect
then comes and directs the work Of the
construction of the building and Sun
day promises to raise all of the money
to pay for the building after he comes
and to pay back those who advanced

NO BLACKLIST FOR

PROMPT PAY OF FARGoANs

PLANT ON PART OF LAND
LoRDs-MovERs in SIOUX CITY
MUST SHOW "cLEARANcE."

While it is generally conceded that
it is cheaper to move than to pay rent,
the practice will be thing of the past,
providing Fargo landlords follow the
example which has been set by build
ing owners in Sioux City. A blacklist
is maintained in that city by an as
sociation of the landlords and nom
paying tenants are put UP against the
real thing.
According to the new system, every
tenant must show a clearance" from
the owner of the building from which
he moves, before he is able to secure
new quarters anywhere in the city. Ac-
eording to reports the vans were kept
busy working overtime before the as
sociation was formed and the way the
rent bills were left behind was some
thing of a shame.
That there Is no need Of such an
association In Fargo, is evidenced By
the sentiment expressed by several
large block owners,
Rents are payable at our Office the
first OF each MONTH" said one, 1--WE

one JAG in TWO YEARS
This Man Claimed That He Had Been
on the Water Wagon for
Long Time.

Is it an offense for man to get
drunk once in two years? While Ole
Void asserts that 1t is not exactly
right to become intoxicated, he holds
that il a person patronizes the water
wagon for pair Of years that this
fact should be given judicial notice In
case he slips of the seat. Ole was ar
raigned before Judge Martin Ryan this
morning. He was arrested yesterday
afternoon on the charge OF drunkenness,
il being asserted that he made some
thing OF a disturbance at the Mer-
chapts hotel. Five dollars or four
days was the judgment of the court
and owing to the fact that Ole was
shy of cash the latter was chosen.

GIRL CLASSED IN
down And OUTS
YEAR OLD WIFE,
WITHOUT FRIENDS, FAMILY,
MONEY OR WORK is SENTENC-
ED TO EIGHT DAY IN THE CITY
JAIL.

Claiming that she was married to
man who failed to provide sufficiently
for her, Florence Probst, aged Is years,
was this morning sentenced to eight
days in the city Jail in default of a
fine of $40. The girl-wife, with a
face which appeared still younger than
the age which she gave, was arrested
last evening by Officer Mullen on the
North Broadway beat.
She was without money or WORK,
being destitute on the streets. She
claims that her husband is horse :
man but the fact that he failed to
come to her rescue this morning lead
the court to believe that no support
would be given from that source. If
relatives can be found who will take
care of the girl and who will vouch
for her in the future, steps will be
taken to get her out of jail. In her
present condition it was considered
that she was better off in the city Jail
than on the streets.

lS1 RELIEF ASSN
FARGO FIRE DEPARTMENT Is THE
FIRST TO INCORPORATE UNDER
PROVISIONS or THE KENNEDY
LAW--oFFlcERs WERE ELECT
Ed LAST NIGHT.

The FIRST meeting Of the Fargo Fire
Department Relief association was
held last evening at the local de-
partment headquarters, when officers
for the ensuing year were elected and
the history of the organization, the
first Of its kind in the entire state,
started. The officers are:
PRESIDENT. w Sutherland.
Vice President-C. e. Manning.
Secretary-Ed. Brattensborg.
Treasurer III. Flynn.
Directors, W. Sutherland, G. E.
Manning. Ed Brattensborg, r. l..
Champion and r. H. Schamp.
The members of the Fargo fire de-
partment were the first to incorporate
under the provisions of senate bin
No. 96, introduced at the last session
of the state Legislature, having been
fathered by Sen. James Kennedy, of
this city. The Fargo fremen were
instrumental in having, the matter
brought up at the last session of the
legislature. and every effort was made
to secure its passage.
The purpose of the organization is
the handling of 1. per cent of the
fire premiums, which is one-half the
amount paid into the state treasury by
the insurance companies. Heretofore
this 2 per cent has been distributed
to the cities. to be used in general
support of the fire companies.
The general proposition is patterned
after Minnesota and other older states
where the relief association is an es-
tablished organization According tc
the bylaws of the organization, sicl
relief, pension and death benefit is pro.
vided. The object as stated is tc
maintain fire department relief as
socation and to provide pensions and
relief for sick, injured and disabled
members, their widows or orphans.

ELECTION CONTEST CASE
At GRAND RAPIDS IS LONG
Fraud Shown in Two Voting Precincts IN the Election Of
Sheriff. Cant Of Duluth Adjourned the
Case Until Monday.

Grand Rapids, Jan. %. Especial
to Pioneer. An adjournment was
taken in the Riddell- Riley election
contest this afternoon after three
weeks of continuous sessions, night
and day.
The case is being tried before
Judge Cant of Duluth, and he left
for his home this afternoon, announc.
ing that he would return again Mon.
day to resume the hearing of testi-
mony.
The case of the contestee has thus
far dealt with only three precincts,
Sand Lake, Keewatln and Crooked
Lake.
In the Sand Lake and Keewatin
precincts the showing of fraud had
been made so strong that it has been
virtually announced by the court
that either candidate claiming any
votes in these precincts will be
required to prove his votes. The
total vote for Riley in these two pre-.
cincts was 1913 and for Riddell Fl.
1t is conceded that the contestee
will be unable to prove the votes
received by him as in many
instances the votes were cast by
lumber jacks or miners who are not
now in this section of the country.
The testimony as to the Sand
Lake precinct showed fraudulent
votes cast by members of the cleo.
ton board as we'll as others.
