fire CAUSES. PANIC in
A DICKINSON: HOSPITAL

Dickinson, N. D., Feb. %. - An
alarm was turned in at O'Clock this
morning for fire at the Stein hos
pital, which had gotten under con-
siderable Roadway in the basement.
The nurses first discovered the fire
and the rooms were alread filed to
suffcation and it was with difficulty
that the ten patients were saved.
Gus iBelzer whose broken legs had
been in casts for several weeks, was
cut of by the smoke and fire and 1t
was necessary to break through a
window from the outside to get him
out. He was taken to the Fisher
hospital across the street, but is in
a critical condition.
Several other parties were taken
to the same hospital and four were
taken to the home of DR.. Davis, adj
joining the burning building.
The fire apparently caught in the
boiler room. The building and most
IT the contents are ruined. but the
loss is covered by insurance.
The nurses did not have time to
dress or pick up any Of their personal
effects.
The iremen had had two calls the
evening before and were COMPLETELY
worn out when they got through with
the hospital.

COULDN'T WORK THE
Count De BEAUFORT

Chicago, Feb. 23.-(SpeciaD-
"They must have tried to swindle the
count and he refused to let them do
it." said Mrs. Martin. H. Kilgallen,
mother-in-law of Count Won Murik de
Beaufort, in defense of her son-in-
law, whose trunks, one containing
his brides trousseau. were attached
on an alleged $500 gambling debt at
Hot Springs.
'The count did just what any
American would do under the cir
cumstances. 1t was a dispute over
the price of the chips that were play
ed on a roulette wheel.
~ was in Hot Springs for two
weeks and I know that the count did
not gamble for heavy stakes. While
I was there we visited a few of the
clubs and played little for the usu-
al stakes. The chips then were only
ten cents each and that undoubtedly
is what those were worth that the
count lost.
ellis conduct pleases Mr.. Kilgallen
and myself, and it shows that he is
up to our expecta lions. Because the
count appears to be a foreigner is no
indication that he is not well inform
ed.
Il received a telegram saying that
the count and countess were leaving
Hot SPRINGS last evening. They will
arrive in Chicago today and then the

There are probabilities of more di-
visions of counties in the next few
years. At the present time there is
a move on foot for division of Bill
lings county, one OF the propositions
being to create four new counties
from the present territory, which Is
about seventy miles long and fifty
miles wide. A new county would be
created from the south end, adjoin-
ing Bowman county, giving Mar
marth the county seat, and three
other new counties would provide
county seats for Medora, the present
county seat, Beach, the thriving
town on the west end Of the coun-

HIGH PRICES IN CANADA, TOO.

Aberdeen News: Our Canadian
neighbors are worrying about the
high cost of living, too. 1t seems
the advance has been about as great
in Canada as III the United States,
despite the fact that the Payne-Ald-
rich law doesn't operate In Canada.
The Canadians have a quite reason
able explanation Of part of the in
cdeased cost Of living, however-an
explanation which applies as well to
this side of the border. It was
brought forth by the grocers Of o.
tawa, who state that groceries are
not in the least higher priced than
they were fifteen years ago, with the
exception of farm products, but were
in many cases much lower. But
every grocer knew that instead Of
buying such commodities as break
fast foods the people no longer used
rolled oats and wheat and corn meal
at few cents pound, but desired
advertised package substitutes which
cost them as high as 20 cents pound
in one or two instances more than
that. Out of season. fruit, vege-
tables and greens were used by every
one, where fifteen years ago the de-
mand for them came from only very
few customers"
Rentals, though, are reported to be
80 per cent higher than ten years
ago, house furnishings are from Is to
so per cent higher, paints, oils, etc.,
from 10 to IS per cent higher. At
any rate, it appears that the Canad-
ians have as much right to complain
as the Americans have-and they
haven't a real scapegoat to clay it
on"

face another division proposition at
the next election, and Mclean county
is probably not yet done with divis-
ion, as the Stevenson proposition
will doubtless come up again at the
next election. Williams county peo-
pie held a division meeting recently,
to get together for proposed new
county, and it may be that other
counties will have the same issue to
face before long, as the larger coul-
ties increase in population. Our
neighboring Morton county across
the river has had some division agi-
tation for a number of years and as
it is one Of the largest counties in
the state and is growing rapidly In
population, aspiring towns are likely
at any time to have a division pro-
position submitted. The constitution
wisely limits the minimum number
of townships that may be included in
a county, thus preventing the burden
of county organization being laid
upon a territory too small to bear it.
There promise to be some considera'
BILE changes in tho county lines of
the state within the next few years,
at the present rate Of growth and
progress.

PARTY HARMONY.

The Times-Record does not believe
that the factional differences in the
republican party in North Dakota
are so serious nor fraught with such
grave consequences as the Minneap-
oils Tribune dope artist" would lead
one to believe. If our democratic
friends put complete state ticket
in the field it will be done for the
purpose of Strengthening one or two
candidates rather than with the idea
that there is ghost of a chance of
making a clean sweep. So far as
party principles are concerned, North
Dakota is as safely republican today
as at any time in It's history. 1t is
true that there are factional differ
ences in the party, but these are not
|irremediable There appears to be
no hope of a reconciliation before the
primaries, but in the meantime let
each faction put forward it's best men
for official preferment and then let
the result of the primaries be bind
on why every candidate on the re-
publican ticket should not triumph
in the general election. Isn't that
right?-Valley City Times Record.
This is all encouraging sign. But
it is so easy to make good resolutions
and so difficult to keep them. Two
years ago the primaries of the re-
publican party gave a tremendous
majority to republican candidate
and he was defeated at the polls by
| the detection of a sarge number of
republicans from the ticket. 1t is to
be hoped that the primaries this year
will not be attended with such men,
tai reservation of party loyalty as
they were two years ago. We are
pleased to note that the Times-Rec-
ord thinks the state safely republi-
can in principles, and that there is
nothing but factional differences
within the state and that these are
not irremediable. These differences
have arisen, we believe, through diff
ferences of opinion as to who should
and who should not enjoy the Offices
and honors to be given out by party
leaders. 1t is the old battle OF the
"outs" against the "ins." We have
so contended all along and it is
