N. D. MAN PICKS
REBELS TO WIN

Il really think that the insurrectos
will win their fight against the presi-
dent Of Mexico" said e. B. Miller of
Steele this morning in talking to a
representative of The Forum at the
Metropole. Mr.. Miller, who is a
prominent real estate man at Steele
has been south for the winter and has
been in FL Paso the greater part of
the time.
'The sentiment of the Texans and
visitors in that country is that Diaz
will be overthrown," continued Mr..
Miller. AT the present time every
indication points toward a victory
for the insurrectos.
Troops Of the regular Mexican army
are deserving the ranks every day
going over to the insurrectos. Just
short time ago a whole regiment of
Mexican regulars left the Diaz gang
and taking all of their equipment as
well as ammunition, they broke away
and Joined the insurrectos.
The rebelling troops are not only
gaining followers from the citizens of
their own country, but from America
as we'll. While l know of no members
ing the ranks of the rebels, a number
of prominent Americans have gone
across the river and joined the insur-
rectos. These Americans are all get
ting offers of big rewards handed out
TO them should the outlaw troops gain
the control of the country, but many
of them are willing to join with the
insurrectos regardless of what may
be the outcome. so anxious are they
to help the oppressed people Of their
sister country.
Last week l crossed over to Juarsz
and attended the races. Every time
passed a Mexican he looked upon ms
with suspicion, as they do every Ameri
can. They think the Americans arc
there to spy, and then join the in
surrectos.
Thursday the American troops shll
off the citizens of this country froN
crossing the river and going over to
Juarez, and since that time all join.
ing of the insurrectos has had to be
done on the @. T. We left Eel Paso
Monday so 1 know little of what has
been doing there in the last few
days.
THE general public opinion of the
maneuvering of troops in Texas is
that it is being done to protect the
American people from inroads that the
Mexican troops might make. There
is some talk Of Japanese trouble, but
this seems very unpopular in that
section of the country

ANNUAL REPORT OF
Chief SUTHERLAND

]. w. Sutherland, chief of the Fargo
fire department has just prepared his
annual report which will be presented
to the city council next Monday even
ing. The report shows that out of 121
alarms answered by the department
during the year the loss was only $685.
1877.
Over half Of the alarms that came
into the department were over the
telephone, while over a third of them
were registered by the street alarm
box system. Strange to say the warm
months of the year show the greatest
number of alarms sent in. May leads
the list with eighteen and July is Sec
ond with sixteen alarms.
Only two deaths were caused dur
ing the year. At the falling Of the
floor in the More Bros building, a
small fire was started, but the death
of r. A. More and Carl Tuskind was
caused by being struck by falling tim
bers and not the fire.
Burning rubbish started twelve of
the fires, while chimneys started one
less in number Third in the list of
causing flames to arise is burning
grass.
In performing services for all of
these the department has laid H.
ESQ feet of house. 440 feet of ladder and
used 67S gallons Of chemical. The
bulk OF this work was done on dwell
lings and stores.
Chief Sutherland has recommended
that one horse in the department nam
ed Con, be killed, this animal has
grown old in the service and is now
unfit for use, being badly crippled. He
also asks that in addition to the hose
wagon now being rebuilt, that the de-
partment be given new hose wagon,
which is sorely needed with the addi-
ton OF the new fire house and in
creased work.
Chief Sutherland is especially pleas
ed that he has been able to keep the
faithful old horse, Con. until the end
of his days and has not been COM
PEELED to sell him for a pittance and
see him overworked and abused drag
ging dray or express about the city.
If the council feels that 1t must get
few dollars out of him, 1t is under
stood that the A. G. will buy him for
demonstration work in class.
In closing his report Chief Suther-
land thanks the mayor, council and fire
committee for their courteous treat
ment and support To the members
of the department he extends his
thanks for the faithful and efficient
manner In which they performed theil
duties on all occasions.

MARKET COMMENT OF THE DAY
Grain Letter.

Chicago. March SO.-Wheat: The
market opened today steady to shade
easier with further moderate liquida-
ton. The buying during the early part
of the session was by local shorts and
professionals, and as offerings were
comparatively moderate, prices were
advanced about cent per bushel from
the low point The fractional rally
today, after the severe decline was only
natural, but the general disposition of
the professional traders toward the
buying side was again illustrated in
the grasping at any item Of news
which could be construed bullish and
the overlooking of legitimate condi-
lions which still surround the market
and which are bearish.

ICE IS HoNEYcoMsINe.
Movement Of Ice in Red River viii
BE Gradual.

Among some people in Moorhead to-
day some unnecessary alarm was felt
about the safety of the small foot
bridge which is the connecting link
between the sttaes Of Minnesota and
North Dakota, and the. opinion was
expressed that the street commits
sioner of Moorhead ought to get busy
and remove the tirnbers of the struc-
ture to a safe anchorage. People who
use the bridge and are annually dis
commoded during the spring breakup,
more or less, have been hoping that
the conditions were such this season
that the removal of the footbridge
would not be necessary.
This afternoon Albert r. Hodge, en-
gineer at the Fargo waterworks. said
that he did not anticipate any trouble
from Ice this year, that it was gradu-
ally hOneycombing and he believed
that it would melt right where it is.
Unless some heavy downpours of rain
should come, the prospects Of there
being any high water conditions to
speak of are remote, and IL they do
not exist there need be no alarm about

School BOARD
JOB NOT DESIRED

Today is the last day for the fling
of petitions for places on the school
board election ballot and at the time
of The Forum going to press no one
had presented petition at the au-
ditor's office.
From all appearances it would seem
that there is no one who desires to be
elected to a position on the board of
education. No one has, so far as the
city auditors office is concerned, made
any, INJURIES regarding the method of
procedure for election, nor even mani
tested any interest in the event.
The election of members to the
school board will be held April 1S. The
retiring members of the board are G.
o. Smith, Charles R. Adams and d. B.
Holt.

According to the new Dunn law, ap-
proved by the governor last week

Minnesota will hereafter be under the

pense of making needed surveys will

furnishing the plans.

John F. Cowan, Accused.

Arthur L. Netchen,
Attorneys for Accused.
Arguments Over Demurrer.
Following the presentation of the
objections of the accused by Tracy r.
Bangs, the leading counsel for the de-
Tense, Senator Stevens moved to have
them referred to a special committee,
but the same was ruled out of order.
Atty. G. A. Bangs stated that the
objections were OF sufficient import
ance to act upon at this time, but
Senator Kennedy stated that 1t was
a matter of law and he did not feel
capable of passing judgment on the
same without further instructions,
whereupon Tracy r. Bangs of the de-
tense stated that he had not objected
for any captious reasons, but believed
the house had proceeded irregularly IN
IL.
AS to the right of sitting without the
house being in session he did not
know, but it was a matter of doubt
He knew If the house was adjourned
the senate could not proceed, and If
the house was In recess, much of what
has been done by the governor may
be Illegal in the matter OF passing on
bills and sundry other matters bearing
on the legislature That point, he
stated, he expected to urge in the final
argument, although it was the inten-
ton to urge it strong now.
Prosecution Surprised.
@. A. Bangs stated that the motion
came as great surprise and that if
there was any question about the
house sitting at this time the prose-
cution would refrain from further ac-
ton. He then called upon Chairman
Homnes to explain the action taken
by the house Of representatives at the
recent session when the impeachment
articles were adopted.
Homnes Explains.
Homnea cited various impeachment
cases in congress wherein charges

He stated the action Of the house Of
this state was entirely within keeping
OF all presidents established and with
the constitution of the state He In

the power OF the house in this matter,
as that body was fully empowered by

clared the house is still In session
