The Williston Commercial club
is very much alive these days and
is preparing to do some very good
work in the interests of Williston
and Williams county. The club
is working for a government
building for the city and as a re-
suit of this work the following
bill has been introduced by Sena-
tor McCumber in the senate, ask
ing for an appropriation for such
a building.
A BILL-To provide for the
purchase of a site and the erection
of a public building thereon at
Williston, North Dakota.
Be it enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Con-
gress assembled, That the Secre-
tary of the Treasury be, and he is
hereby authorized and directed to
acquire, by purchase, connemna-
tion, or otherwise, site and cause
to be erected thereon a suitable
building, including fireproof
vaults, heating and ventilating ap-
paratus, and approaches, for the
use and accommodation of the
United States post-office and other
government Offices in the city of
Williston and State of North Da-
kota, at limit of cost not to ex-
coed the sum of seventy-fve thou
sand dollars.
The club is also after a sugar
beet factory and several of the
members are carrying on a CORES
pondence with interested parties.
A White Way" for Main street
is another Improvement talked Of
and one that may be secured in
the very near future. The secre-
tary has been instructed to invite
the Milwaukee and Minneapolis
jobbers to visit Williston when on
their trip west.

ONLY OCCUPANTS
OF OFFICE SUICIDE
PECULIAR COINCIDENCE IN CONNECTION
WITH RAMSEY COUNTY OFFICIALS
DEATH AT DEVILS LAKE.

Devils Lake, N. d., Feb. 12.-
The board of county commission
ers has appointed H. l.. Stenseth
to fill the unexpired term of Thos.
Thorson as clerk of the district
court of Ramsey county. He was
formerly deputy sheriff under
John Mclean.
The body of Thomas Thorson is
still at the Gilbertson undertaking
rooms. Mrs. Thorson and daugh-
ter are expected to arrive here
Monday when the funeral arrange
ments will be made.
So far as is known Thomas Thor
son left no letter or statement to
any of his friends that in any way
indicated or intimated that he was
contemplating self destruction.
There is nothing to show that the
deed was premeditated.
A SINGULAR COINCIDENCE.
1t is singular coincidence that
since the organization of Ramsey
county that there has been but two
men heretofore who have held the
Office of county clerk. The first
was T. G.. Saunders who served
from the organization of the coun
ty, January 25' 1888, until 1900.
The second was Thomas Thorson
who was elected in 1900 and served
down to the present time. Both
men were intimate friends. Both
had been more or less interested in
spiritualism and given the subject
considerable investigation. Each
died by his own hand, Saunders,
near Summer6eld, California, on
Oct. 16 last, by shooting himself
through the head and Thorson in
this city on Feb. 8, by cutting his
throat with a razor.
