Devils Lake inter-ocean. (Devils Lake, N.D.) 1909-1915, 1910-09-30

1t is amusing to note the different
tactics brought into play by the demo
Gratis in this county through their Of
fetal mouth-piece-The Journal. The
latest brought to our notice was an
article which appeared in the Williston
State, also supposed to be democrat
ic paper and run by an over-grown in
surance peddler. The article in ques-
ton had reference to the race In this
county, for sheriff, and. intimated that
the democratic candidate had an easy
time of this fight and that the Nc
Leans had been candidates for a
number of years. Now to one not &C
quainted with the facts, it would ap-
pear as though this insurance peddler
out in the western part of the state,
had some information up his sleeve.
But when it is known that this same
overgrown one and the little poodle of
the Journal have been swapping bones
since tile meeting of the Press asso-
citation. it will be readily seen that
Devils Lake is the origin of the arti-
Gle and that it was published first in
the Williston State and re-copied in
the Journal just for effect Well the
Journal knows that such song orig
mating with them would have no ef-
feet, and they were under the impress
sion that if copied from some other pa
per, supposed to be stranger it would
have some effect. The Journal GER
tainly has good opinion of its useful
ness to make a break like that, espe-
cially before it has said one word on
the sheriff question-Hampden Guar

INCREASED JURISDICTION.

We notice that the attorneys of
Ramsey county have petitioned to al
low the people of this county to vote
on the proposition of increased juris-
diction of County Judge. We have
looked the matter up somewhat and
so far we have been unable to satisfy
ourselves that this is just the pro-
per thing. There are some good points
in increased jurisdiction, while there
are other points that are not so good.
II it Is a good thing for the taxpayers
Of the county we are in for 1t, but on
the other hand, If after investigating
the thing, we come to conclusion that
1t is a good thing for the attorneys of
the county and bad thing for the tax
payers in general we will be against it.
In the meantime it will be we'll for
the voters to look this matter up so
they will be in a position to vote in
telligently on the proposition at the
fall observation-disclosures Herald News.

sympathiZers. The influence of the
booze element and it's ramifcations
among the business interests of the
city, are almost unbelievable. We
are just finding out that the powers
which the good citizenship of Devils
Lake has to contend with in this
fight, are strong indeed and fight with
every weapon at their command
TO the citizens of Devils
Lake who want to see decent govern
ment and honest public officials, we
will merely say that the fight has just
begun. The local systems of protec-
ton for law breaking has just been
scratched. The biggest and hardest
fight is yet to come. There must be
no tagging in this fight for decency.
1t must 60 on until every man who
has connived with it and participated
in its evils has been brought to &C
count Though it strike friend or foe
it cannot cease till it is settled and
settled right.
1t is bound to be settled right. We
are already half through the battle
because we have Justice with US. Re
member also that no matter how dis
couraging it may be, no matter what
powerful influences may be brought to
bear, nothing can stop this fight until
the evil is era6icated and the lesson of
respect for law taught, If need be with
disgrace and punishment for the men
responsible for it. We must keep bit
terness and personal feeling out Of
our midst, but at the same time we
must fight sternly and @squarely for
what is right as God gives US to see
the right.

A complaint has come to this office
from the farmers residing near the
city relative to the letting of cattle
run at large. It must be that some do
not realize the extent of the law in
this particular which forbids anything
of the kind. Something should be
done to warn those who are allowing
this practice to 60 on, and while the
warning has been printed in the COM
missioner proceedings and elsewhere,
still it seems to be of no avail. No
tees posted through the country,
stating the law in this particular,
might be Of Service and help do away
with this nuisance which has caused
many complaints among the farmers
during the past week.

toned to the lines and not miss any
of the stuff that Colonies Whitehead
and Bloom have prepared, they being
new corners in the musical comedy
field and anxious to get before the pub
lie. The music of the piece is not of
the sort that many would dance to, but
one piece entitled 1.-THE Writing on
the WALL" is of the catchy sort, being
whistled by the democrats continuous
ly, the balance of the score Is of the
weird variety in the old Winshipian
style. The show will travel on the
quack doctor order no admission be-
ing charged while coming in. There
is hardly any danger of the company
being stranded as it is understood that
an appropriation for travelling expens-
es was made in advance. The brush
will probably be applied after the first
performance and the parts such as
Bloom and Whitehead would be apt to
put into piece that would not ap-
pear well In print will be eliminated
The report which has been circulated
that the Schuberts were contracting
for the piece is stamped as false as
they are now centering their interest
in Minnesota where a new produc-
ton is needed, the democrats of that
state having tired Of "Lindy, Indy"
which had such long run.
