be held at Bismarck on January II,
at which time the question of consid-

AS the normal: schools all seek the

in different sections of the state for
the convenience Of the public in at
tending them, there seems to be a
strong disposition to have one Joint

PIGGERS TO GO.
Editor Of the Wave Goes After the
Outlaws With Q Vengeance.

VOVSOW0 WIN y vCuSO0uCce
Turtle Lake Wave: The recent raid
on Turtle Lake blind pigdom reveals
to the public the fact that this COM
munity has been supporting seven
blind .piggers. Board and room at
Turtle Lake costs 81 week. These
piggers have all been boarded and
roomed with profits from the sale of
booze, therefore we know we have
been donating $40 week, 5000 a
month and $1,000 year toward keep
Ing a set Of booze vendors in Turtle
Lake. We know 1t takes $1,000 to feed
and board seven blind piggers year.
We know also that we pay them at
least $4,000 besides what they eat or
they'd not bother about staying. The
truth Of the matter is about $4,000
has passed through the hands of
Turtle Lake booze vendors the past
year. In return for this the ptSgers
get us drunk, short change US and
someone rolls US for our wad. They
sell fools booze, who fight and use the
foulest kind of language on the streets
and in business places, regardless Of
the presence of ladies and gentlemen.
They promote gambling by furnish
Il They send men of to. take the
Kelley cure, and worst Of all they are
always stirring up a mess and costing
the county lot Of money. 1t is best
to soak them good and hard and be
through with it. There is no sense in
harboring blind piggers and all the
disagrceableness that goes with the
vocation. We need all the money that
this country can scrape up to buy our
groceries with, anyhow.

for the coming year was set at $40

was thought that a lower rate would
furnish money enough for the city.
1t requires about $50, 600 per year 10
run the city, and as the real and tax
able property is about $4,000, 900,
this rate and the amount received
from licenses wifi give little more
than running expenses.
