Franklin Brockson, Esq, our we'll
known lawyer and member of the
recent State Legislature was the
speaker in Wilmington Thursday even
ing at the last meeting of the Hanover
Young Mems Club and Westminster
Club before adjourning for the sum-
mer. Hanover Presbyterian Church
was crowded when Mr.. Brockson was
introduced. The latter had for his
theme, "Needed Legislation in Del
aware" and in opening his talk he
said that he wished it understood that
ne would not say anything with the
intention of throwing any reflection
on the State judiciary that the evils
he would speak about were to be cor
rected by the law makers alone. The
first legislation needed was a revision
of the marriage laws, clothing it with
a solemnity, surrounding it and max
ing it impossible for strangers TO
come here and be married. The next
evil which needs correction was the
divorce laws in which the speaker
made a number of recommendations.
The speaker also advocated an income
tax, saying that it should be possible
for the government to secure funds
in times of dire necessity from the
rich mans income as we'll as taxing
the poor mans house. Mr. Brocksor
then stated that the next law which
needed the attention of the law makers
as we'll as the voters was the En-.
ployers' Liability law. He compared
this law with the fellow servant Law
such as Delaware has. He stated
that every workman should receiv
some compensation for all injurie
suffered by him while in the per
formance of his duty.

J. M. Harding, secretary of the
Delaware, Maryland and Virginia
Railroad Company, has called a
meeting of the stock holders of the
company to be held at the station in
Georgetown today to elect IS direct
ors. The roads profit the past year
has been large, and more fruit has
been carried over the line than over
any other controlled by the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad. 1t is understood
that a proposition will be made to
lease the road to the Pennsylvania
system at fixed rental for SO years,
so that the company will then begin
improvements to the roadbeld, and to
the stations, ali of which are needed.

MAKING FIGUREsLIE.

A county newspaper man who knows
better, says that the figures carried by
the Pioneer Express at the head of it's
columns only mean s1.60 cents per tax
payer per year for twenty years. Let's
see. Huh, if the 2,OOO taxpayers of the
county pay sl.6J cents each per year
that would be 5000. In twenty years
that would make s64,0 900. which would
build a court house whose first cost
would ba S35555.55, as that sum at in
terest at 4 per cent would make the sum
of 5000. Must be something wrong
with those figures, eh?
The specionsness Of such misleading
and false statements lies in the purpose
ly false assumption that each taxpayer
pays on On assessment Of only $1,000 on
which the court house tax would be a
bout 90. for . hundred thousand dollar
building.

RAILWAY STORIES.

There is report from many sources
that the Great Northern intend cut
ting OFT the passenger train and making
the service on this line from Grafton
north one mixed train each way, a day.
The company cut off a large part of the
revenue from this line when they turned
the time schedule around, as the people
patronlzed them largely because of the
ease OF gong to Grand Forks and back
the same day. Now they stay at home
and the company say the service is
not paying them.
1t has been limited that the county
seat fight Is partially responsible for the
adverse action of the road. That in.
terested parties who favor Pembina are
using their influence with the road to
make the service on this branch as poor
as possible in order to work public
sentiment against Cavalier. We do not
like to think that this is true. but it is
not impossible. If true, however, the
action will act as a boomerang for Penn
bina, as such tactics will certainly fail
to make friends but raoher confirnl
opposition.-Walhalla Mountaineer.
The pioneer express. [volume] (Pembina, Dakota [N.D.]) 1883-1928, 1910-07-29

A rumor is current which Agent
Bolton at the depot will neither confirm
or deny officially. to the effect that the
ct. Northern railroad company intends
taking the daily passenger train service
OH all its branch lines and installing
mixed trains in place of same. This il
put into effect would of course include
this line and put the class of service
back to what Langdon and other towns
along the Line enjoyed ca twenty years
ago.-Langdon Democrat.
While the latter extract answer the
former (unless indeed, the underhanded
influence Of the Pembira committee is
farther reaching thanoould be expected)
we cannot refrain from saying that the
above shows two things, one, the dis
tanoe to which the editor of the Mount
aineer will go to cast a mean :slur on
Pembina people, who have always been
his friends and second, to show that so
far as accessibility is concerned it is al.
most entirely matter of railroad sched.
ules as to which town is the better.
When We had that 1sother end SERVICE
the Moantaineer SO warmly favors,
Walhalla people and all others along
that line could come to Pembina, have
several hours to do business and return
home the same day. II Bro. Lee had
not in some anknown manner become
SO prejudiced against Pembina and
Pembina people, he would not thus size
US up for fools. If we had the influence
he accuses us Of using, ve would GER
tainly want exactly the same service
that he asks sor. But an editor who
will reprint lie that says 4the county
Judge has h is Office in his own house"
has gone pretty far on the Cavalier
lien.

The Reason for
Rushing Petition

-Anumber of the,county papers, with
a rather curious ,unanimity,) spent a
good part of their editorial space for the
last week in denouncing what one of
them terms "Editor Wardwelrs deep.
laid scheme to ask delay of a month
or six weeks to get in a remonstrance
and try to work off enaugh names and
by that and other clandestine means to
reduce it below the requirement and
also says ''No doubt he would be dis
pleased at any action of the board at
any time giving the right to the people
to express themselves by ballot on the
petition
These are specimens of long columns
OF similar stuff all trying to show that
any objection that Pembina people
have 10 the arbitcary procedure of the
county board is simply q scheme to
subgert the wilfof the people.
These editor men also affirm that
each and every signature on the petit
tion Is that of bona fde, qualified
elector and that the petition represents
the wishes Of thnee-ffths of the voters
of the county and therefore that should
end the whole matter. ANY effort to
ascertain anything to the contrary is
practically treason to the common
wealth.
OF counse the testimony of these
editors to the genuinenass and legality
Of the petition will be gratifying to
everybody and particularly to the
county board. Such evidence Is certain
" Of much legal value. We hardly see
how anybody would dare to have :
suspicion to the contrary after reading
it.
But granting that the petition carries
with it the wishes Of three-Rfths Of the
qualified voters Of the county, granting
that each and every signature is that Of
such voters and that each and every ono

away Thursday night when Mr..

idence of Mr.. and Mrs. w. L.

ing qualities and strict standards
of conduct. His own character
fully up to his standards,
and he was universally respected
and esteemed.
He is survived by his devoted
wife, who before marriage was Miss
Dooley, who during their long
married life has been true help

Fire at Depot.

On Tuesday morning at about 6
O'Clock the two-story sheet iron
store at the depot occupied by Mr..
Ernest Lucas land owned by Mr..
Scott Farmer, was discovered to
be on fire. The flames had reached
such a stage that nothing could be
done in making Roadway against
the fire nor even rescue any of the
contents of the store. The back
door was broken in and it is sup
posed that the place was robbed
and then set fire to to conceal the
crime, The loss was about 5000
or 800, with about third insu-
rance.
The fire company for some rea-
son was delayed in reaching the
fire, but arrived in time to save
several buildings that in five min
utes more would have been in
flames.
Some of the most disastrous fires
that Macon has had have occur
red at the depot, which is nearly
a mile from the fire house and it
has been suggested that the city
have some hose and a reel at the
depot for the better protection of
that portion of the city that. con-
tains many of its most valuable in
dustries.
