SUPREME COURT
ROOM FOR CLUBS
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS GRANT
THE FEDERAL CLUBS OF THE
CITY THE USE OF THE su-
PREME COURTROOM IN THE
COURTHOUSE.

The Cass county commissioners
again convened this morning after an
adjournment of several days. The
commissioners allowed large number
of bills, but of chief interest was the
appearance of a committee of ladies
from the Fortnightly club of Fargo.
The committee came forward with
the request that their club. and other
organizations of the city belonging to
the federal clubs society of Fargo be
allowed to use the room that had been
constructed for the use Of the supreme
court.
This room was originally built for the
supreme courts use, but this body has
found little occasion to sit in the Cass
county courthouse, coming here as a
general rule, to conduct bar examina-
tions only. This makes the room oc-
cupied for not more than about one
whole week out of year.
The commissioners decided to allow
the ladies to use the room, whenever
1t was not desired for the use of the
county. Other clubs of the federation
will be allowed the same privilege, and
hold their meetings in this room should
they care to do so.
1t is no longer fashionable for the
clubs to meet at the homes Of it's
members as has been customary for
many years in all parts of the coun-
try. To do the ultra exquisite thing
the clubs should have some central
place in which to hold their meetings
and the step taken by the Fargo clubs
will put them in the front rank with
the other social literary organizations
of America.
The question Of paying certain print
ing bills confronted the commissioners
at their morning session. Several of
the officials of the county having been
ordering letterheads and envelopes
printed for their use, and the commits
sioners were loath to pay the bills for
such printing. The states attorney
was instructed to look up the law for
such cases.

Liverpool, Jan. 1.-THE wheat mar
ket on the whole was dull, but with
a firm undertone and offerings Hsht.

Support was due TO the firmness in
America, fewer Platte offers, less favor
able reports from Russia, lighter Rus
sian offerings at firm prices, strength
in cargoes and the fact that there
were no cargo arrivals. The advance
was checked by private reports here Of
predictions of rain and warmer in the
American winter wheat belt. At mid
day the market was dull but firm and
unchanged from Yesterday. The corn
market at the opening was firm and
"A to Il higher and following the
opening prices were unchanged at the

In the dissecting of congressional
districts occasioned by the coming new

Ninth district which includes Clay and
adjoining counties, will be when the

are nine districts now and there will
have to be one more district formed.

Der, but Hennepin county is not
large enough for two under
the ratio of one to every $4,000,
but her population is 100000 more than

is also true that the Ninth is entitled
to consideration on the same ground,

Old Bill Sized Up.

Osborne Farmer: Cid Bill Shiftless
is getting along in years a trifle He
is not an old man by any means. and
is still in full strength. but he is no
longer a kid. Bill is always telling
how luck is against him and how the
trusts keep him down. But lots OF
people around here remember Bills
boyhood days and earlier years and
know exactly what is the matter with
him. Bill was always a loafer. He
was never known to stick to any lob
a month. ALI the work he ever tackled
was too hard and he couldn't stand
for cranky boss. The boss was
cranky because Bill was always shirk-
ing and leaning on his spade. 1t WASN'T
long until anybody looking for a hand
would always pass Bill up and take
somebody else. He hung around the
stores and borrowed chewing and
smoking tobacco and absorbed heat
He had no sense of gratitude and would
just as soon sting a friend as anvbodv
else. or course the people are against
Old Bill Shiftless, and they are going
to stay that way. Old Bill has sinned
away his days of grace and will ALWAYS
be loafer without possible chance
of getting up Luck will never coma
his way and opportunity has forgotten
him.

CHICAGO Gossip.

Chicago, Jan. lit was said last
night that few of the local traders had
any long wheat, and from the way they
bought upward indicates it looked as
though many were short. Those who
were very bullish advocated pur-
chases on breaks Of u to y from
the present level. Some conservative
traders said they did not expect the
bull leaders to try and unload a larger
percentage of their holdings until they
are able to get a broader market and
start the public buying, which may
aecessitate their working for two
months or until they can get up a good
sized crop scare.-InIer- Ocean,

TRIED AT LAKOTA
TWO DISMISSED, IN ONE DE-
PENDANT PLEADED GUILTY,

WAS GUILTY.

Lakota n. D., Jan. 11.-Yesterday

Templeton, the jurors and attorneys i'm
the district court at Lakota. There
were four different blind pig cases be-
fore the court during the day, and two
of them were dismissed, while in the
third case the defendant pleaded
guilty and in the other verdict of
guilty was returned by the jury
The first case taken up was that
of the state VS.. Chris Johnson and
Sam Thompson, both accused of vio-
lating the prohibition law AT Clotun,
near Lakota, and the defendants were
dismissed on motion of States Attor-
ney S. G. Skulason, on the grounds
that there was not sufficient evidence
to prosecute. The second case was
against Antoine Pollmen, accused of
violating the prohibition law at La
kota. and he was dismissed on motion
of the states attorney.
Tom K. Husa pleaded guilty to a
charge OF violating the prohibition
law at Thompson, and was sentenced
to serve ninety days in the county Jail
and pay fine of 1920

Inspection Of Liquors.

Local wholesale houses are showing
some interest in bill which Is to be
introduced in the North Dakota legis-
lature, providing for the inspection of
all liquors shipped into the state and
the inspection be done by the pure
food department. 1t is said the fees
for inspection will add materially to
the revenue Of the state and further,
the names OF the receivers of liquor
will enable county attorneys to learn
of all illegal business which is being
engaged in. A similar bill was de-
feated two years ago.

Grain Opinions.

Walter Fitch q Co.: Leading hold
ers of wheat apparently are confident
of their position and the tendency
seems higher from the usual natural
reactions.
Finley Darrell & Co: In view Of
our recent advance and the fact that
the short interest has been we'll elimi-
mated, we think one should hesitate
before buying wheat at these prices
as healthy reaction appears overdue in
wheat.
Logan & Bryan: We feel that con-
ditions and temper Of the wheat trade
suggest an early return of active BULL
operations. II is useless to look for
much reaction in corn with present
strong feeling under the active months
