QUESTION RAISED
AGAIN AT MINOT
HARRISON TOWNSHIP PROPOSE.
TON RoBs UP BEFORE THE
CITY COMMISSIONERS. >'

Minot N. D., June 4.-The old sques
ton of wether or not North Minot
! fbrmerly known as Harrison town
| ship, is in Minot or out Of Minot, was
raised for the ninety-ninth time at the
meeting of the board of city commits
sioners this week.
The discussion arose over a request
for a permit from the occupent of the
residence on the Mrs. White proper
ty, past which the water mains run
from the pumping plant.
Though the old city council decided
that Harrison township belonged to
the city they went through the
formally of an inspection of the ter
ritory to be taken in. yet no assess
ment is made on the residents OF
North Minot.
The library board holds North Mi
not as a portion Of the city and one
of their members is a resident OF the
suburb.
The case was taken to the supreme
court on a motion asking for a re-
view of the proceedings and de-
cision has not been handed down.
The board did not feel that they
could grant a permit to tap the mains
at the same price as that charged the
Minot citizens and yet hesitated charg-
ing a higher rate after holding that
North Minot was a portion OF the
city proper.
The question was finally turned
over to the city attorney with instruc-
tions to draw up an application incor-
porating in it the right of the city to
shut off the water at any time and
fixing the rate at 81 per thousand gal
Ions, the property owner to pay for
the cost Of tapping,
The question Of fire protection for
Harrison township is also to be taken
up with the officials of North Minot
who will be asked to pay in case they
are decided not to be a part of the
city a reasonable amount per hour
to the local firemen.
The result of the appeal to the SUI
preme court is being watched for
with interest.

STUDENTS ABANDON PLAY.
University of North Dakota Prexy's
Act Discharges Seniors.

Grand Forks, N. D., June Although
the fact that President McVey put his
stamp of disapproval upon the first
play chosen by the senior class was not
directly responsible for the action
taken by the 1910 class announcing
that the idea of giving play had been
abandoned, that fact was partly to
blame.
The class play situation this year has
been an extermemly difficult one, fights
within the class ranks dragging over
two months finally resulting in the de-
cision given out today that the time
honored custom of giving a class play
will be abandoned this year
In the first play chosen, His House
in Order the president and faculty
took adverse action in the matter of
approval.

BISMARCK HAS STRENUOUS
TIME TRYING TO CLEAN
. UP ITS VIoLAToRs OF
PROHIBITION LAW.

Geo. w. Gorham, charged with vio-
lation of the prohibition law, has
pleaded guilty and was sentenced to
serve ninety days in the county Jail
and pay a fine of 5000 besides the
costs in the case. Miller, the man
who was arrested last fall by Deputy
Sheriff Barnes at Moffit in company
with one bail has been forfeited. The
case Of Merry is now being tried, with
States Attorney Stevens and his as
sistant H. r. Berndt, conducting the
case for the state.
I. Jury Disaerees.
In spite of the overwhelming mass
of evidence produced by the state to
show that Joseph Higgins was guilty
of violation of the prohibition law,
the jury which had been out all night
failed to bring in a verdict of guilty
and reported a disagreement. While
there is no way of arriving at a posi-
tive statement as to the poll of the
jury, it is stated that the vote was
eleven to one for conviction. At the
first vote it was ten to two. but one
Of the holdouts soon was convinced
that there was enough evidence to
convict and went over to the side
of the majirity. The one man was
unable to be convinced and so held
the jury until a disagreement was re-
ported.
Those who heard the evidence in
the case state there was sufi-
cient evidence introduced to have
convicted half dozen men. People
who are reputable citizens went on
the stand and swore they purchased
liquor in the place mentioned in the
charges and that they bought it of
Higgins himself and paid for it with
cash. Just what testimony will be
needed to convict men of the vio-
lation of the prohibition law is not
known, but is it probable there will
have to be a new brand produced ac-
cording to the actions of the jury in
the Higgins case.
This case will be tried again June
