JAMESTOWN HOPES
ra{
VICAR GENERAL SAYS EVERY.
THING MUST BE FIRST CLASS
If 5uiLT-coST WOULD
re S1nn,OnO.

Jamestown, N. d., March 1S.-Much
Of the uncertainty that has surrounded
the proposed Catholic hospital for
jamestown was dispelled Friday by a
visit of Father Baker of IsaMoure to
this city Father Baker is vicar gem
eral of this diocese and Bishop o.
REILLY, after giving the hospital plans
his most hearty approval, has turned
the whole matter over to him.
In interviews with the mayor and
several other business men, Father
Baker expressed unbounded enthus-
iasm in the arrangements for SPLEEN
did hospital in Jamestown and he is
using his influence strongly to put the
plan into effect. Mayor Blewett, who
had talked this proposition over many
times with the local physicians, told
the vicar general that he was author
lied to say that jamestown would give
$4,000 towards the project. This sum
was also mentioned when the plans
were talked over with Bishop O'Reilly
and both Of them thought the donation
a very liberal one.
Father Baker and the bishop have
both said that when it was decided to
erect a Catholic hospital at James
town it must be first-class in every
respect Father Baker said Friday that
nothing less than a 100000 institution
would be contemplated and that il
might go as high as 100000. He was
taken about the city and shcwn what
could be offered in the way OF site
for such hospital and he expressed
great satisfaction in the eity's faeili-
ties In this respect
The principal drawback In the plan
for this hospital has been the scarcity
of sisters to manage it, but Father
Baker is confident that he is in COM
munication with strong order that
would make a hospital here every
thing that has gone to make the Cath
Ollie hospitals held in such high repute
wherever they have been established.
He was also deeply impressed with the
surrounding territory from which the
Institution could draw its patronage
and said that he had no doubt that
the order of sisters he had in mind
would be greatly tempted by this as
pect of the situation.
Father Baker is going at the whole
matter in very business like an con-
sentative way In spite of his enthus-
iasm and says that nothing will be
undertaken until he is sure there will
be no hitch in the undertaking. He
thinks the matter should be thorough
~ gone over this summer. and plans
and specifications prepared during the
winter ready to break ground as soon
as the weather permits in the spring
of 1912.

DRUGGISTS ALL
REFUSE TO PLEAD
WILL RESIST THE AUTHORITY
OF JUDGE BUTTE TO THE
END.

Devils Lake. N D.. March 1S.-At
the district court last night the court
room was again crowded to capacity,
all available standing room being
taken. The large crowd was at
tracted by the announcement that a
number of defendants in liquor yio-
lation cases would plead at that time.
Attorney General Miller represented
the state and Mayor p. ]. McClory and
City Attorney Cuthbert represented
the defendants. Mr.. Cuthbert, aided
by frequent Interruptions and sug-
gestions from the mayor, made a
statement in which ne said that the
defendants did not recognize the right
Of Judge Buttz to sit as judge, to call
the present session Of court and many
other things as set out in a petition
and motion, which was a copy of the
one prepared by Attorney Samson, ana
which was submitted to the court in
the Rogers and Lander cases at the
opening of the term. Judge Butte de-
MED the motion and petition, and or
dered the pleas to proceed.
G. w. Green was the first Of the de-
PENDANTS to be called, and he promptly
entered a plea of NOT guilty. Evidently
Billy had not been well coached or
else he had forgotten his lines, for
his haste in pleading not guilty greatly
embarrassed the city attorney, who
made haste to have Billy withdraw
his plea and say instead: Upon the
advice of counsel, / refuse to plead"
The court then ordered a plea OF
not guilty to be entered In the case,
and the same action was taken with
reference to the other four drug store
cases.
Attorney General Miller announced
that he would move the trial Of the
cases at the earliest convenience of
the court.
