WILL VISIT THE WEST

On mountain and in meadow
so wonderfully massive and so del.
lcately beautiful as to be deified
and sanctified in the pagan mind
OF the Indian, President William
Howard Taft will spend Sunday,
Oct. 8. Mr.. Taft will visit Mount
Rainier on this trip to the Pacific
Coast, visit made possible in the
limited time he has by govern.
ment built roads and the improve
ments made and train service es-
tablished on the old Tacoma &
Eastern road by the Chicago Mil
waukee & Puget Sound Railway.
The presidents visit will be fit
ting close to the most successful
tourist season, now at it's height,
ever experienced in Rainier Nation
al Park.
Travelling over the Milwaukee
up to the mountain, the president
will leave his train at Ashford, the
terminus of the line, and thence
60 by automobile over the govern
ment road, or on horseback over a
romantic pony trail through and
up the sides of the canyons he will
make quick trip to Gods Roof
Garden, at the highest point of
which snow and meadow meet.
Standing on the snow fields he
will be able to pick delicate wild
flowers, he will wade through
fields of mountain aster and other
wonderful blossoms but few steps
out onto a snowfeld extending for
mile after mile up the mountain
side to the very crest of the peak.
The Indians called this noun
tain, which is 14,363 feet high
and rises more than 5000 feet
above it's nearest sister peaks, their
god. Gods Roof Garden, or Para
disc Valley, which is but one of
the many wonderful natural parks
averaging two miles in width and
girding the mountain just below
the snow line, was the sanctuary,
their place of refuge. Never was
the bIoodshed or quarrel within it,
arms were laid down at it's entrance
and here the pursued had no fear
of violence or capture by his pur-
suer. 1t was haven of refuge. A
mountain and valley of which
John Muir, the great mountain
climber said:
of all the fire mountains which
like beacons, once blazed along the
the Pacific coast, Mount Rainier is
the noblest in form. It's massive
white dome rises out of the forests,
like a world by itself. Above the
forests there is zone of the lowell
est flowers, so closely planted and
luxuriant that it seems as if nature
were economizing the precious
ground, and trying to see how
many of her darlings she can
gather together in one mountain
wreath-daisies, anemones, colum-
bines, erythroniums, larpspurs,
etc., among which we wade knee
deep and waist-deep, the bright
corollas in myriads touching petal
to petal. Altogether this is the
richest subalpine garden 1 ever
found, a perfect floral elysium."
Here President Taft will spend a
time, will see and may go out on
one or two of the twelve great
glaciers, or one of as many inter
glaciers that flow down the noun
tain sides, and are from five tc
eight miles in length and at places
two miles in width. He may look

Will TALK OF A
GREAT MOVEMENT
MAN OF NATIONAL REPUTATION
WILL BE HEARD AT THE GRAND
NEXT SUNDAY EVENING IN
THE REGULAR SUNDAY NIGHT
LECTURE.

Edward ], Ward of the University of
Wisconsin, one of the best known men
in the movement for better civic af-
fairs in the United States will be the
speaker at the Grand next Sunday
night. He will give an illustrated
lecture on Civic and Social Center De-
velopment.
Mr.. Ward was the originator of the
social center movement in Rochester,
N. Y, and now is doing similar work
in Wisconsin under the auspices of the
university extension department.
He is a man of national reputation
of whom former Governor Hughes,
now a member of the supreme court
of the United States said: 81 am
more interested in what you are doing
than in anything else in the world.
You are buttressing the foundations of
democracy.
THE most important point in the
social center idea is that it is not a
method of uplift, it is a community
movement. 1t is civic melting pot, the
crucible wherein shall be cemented our
common interests, hopes and ambi-
tons"
"Inasmuch as the interest in social
centers is rapidly growing Mr.. Wards
coming to Fargo is very opportune,"
said Prof. Max Bait, who has charge

succeeds in establishing unconstitu-
tionallty OF the law, he is loser.
When 1t is remembered how rigor-
ousiy the rights of ownership are safe
guarded in the laws governing the
taking up of stock by private indi-
vlduals 1t is doubly strange that law
as sWeepingly stringent should ever
have been written on the North Da-
kota statues. The estray law guar
antees the owner a quasi-right extend
ing over period of at least two years
demanding at the same time from the
holder the strictest observance OF the
law The poundmaster law does moth
ing OF that sort. 1t may be that law
so strict is of effect and virtue in well
settled communities, but in this open
country-in fact almost anywhere in
the Dakotas, where horse once STAN
peded is liable to cover fifty or more
miles in night. it is clearly out of
place. Members of the legislature have
been informed Of this incident which
appears to lay bare the working of
this obnoxious law and let it be hoped
that amendments will pass that will
ameliorate the unjust force of the law.

COzY smith IS At
THEBIJOU THEATRE
POPULAR PICKANINNIES ARE
WITH HER TOO - EVERYBODY
WHO HAS HEARD THEM BE.
FORE WILL WANT TO HEAR
THEM AGAIN.

The Bijou theatre offers an excep-
uonally attractive programme for the
balance Of this week. Cozy Smith and
her band Of southern pickaninnies are
mere for three days. This announce
ment alone is sufficient to fill the house
at every performance, but in addition
there are three strong pictures which
round out the programme and make
1t one Of unusual strength.
First on the list Of pictures Is His
Trust, story that tells Of the faith
full devotion and self sacrifice of an
old negro servant. 1t is a war time
story Of the sacrifice which a 10y al
black servant made for his white mas
ter, a characteristic Illustration of
southern life and conditions "befo' &c
wah." His Trust is The first of a
series of two pictures, each. entirely
complete in itself, the second OF which
will be shown at the BlioG early next
week.
A Woman's Voice is a unique and
clever comedy picture, the story of a
poor artist and a society belle. The
artist paints the picture Of the lady;
they fall in love and are engaged; the
lady calls up the artist over the tele-
phone at an early morning hour
another woman's voice answers-then
there's trouble in plenty. 1t all comes
out right, however, in the end.
Ten Words for twenty-five Cents is
a story that Bixby receives by tele-
graph; the message says she is dying;
Bixby goes to be with her In the last
moments; the finish is too good to tell
about--see the picture at the Bijou.

POUNDMASTER LAW
IS CONFISCATORY

State Line Herald: A few days ago
a farmer named Sackmann, a German
Russian from near Leipzig, found a
team of horses which had strayed from
him early in May of last year. in. the
possession of parties near White Butte.
For month after month this man had
been engaged in the wearying and ex-
pensive task of finding them and now
that he has finally located the animals
1t looks as IL law almost draconic In
tendency stands between him and his
right to assert his property.
The horses were taken up in North
Dakota In Gilstrap township and turn
ed over to Charles Martin, then the
poundmaster of the township. Mr..
Martin complied strictly in accordance
with the law relating to the holding
and disposal Of stock by poundma sters
This law requires the holding Of the
stock taken up for a few days after
which the poundmaster may advertise
them for sale once, setting q date not
nearer than fifteen days after the adj
vertisement. The animals had been
taken up it seems only a few DAVIS
after they had strayed, and the sale
took place the end of May Mr.. Sack

have been about $3.50 then. They were
struck off for a sum but little over
$3.50. So far, so good. but the really
vicious phase of the law applies now.
Whatever money remains after the ex-
penses Of taking up, holding and SELL
ing are deducted, is turned into the
township treasury to be held there six
months subject to the call of whom |
soever might prove to have been the
rightful owner OF the stock before it |
was sold BY the poundmaster. If. BY |
the end of six months from the date
of sale, no one applies the money be- |
comes township property There ap-
pears to be no opportunity of redennp-
ton of the stock at all and the chance |
to get back the remnant OF the pound |
masters sale price expires likewise |
within six months. Thus the pound |
master law of North Dakota comes al
near to confiscatory powers as any law
over put on the statues OF the state.

COLORED PREACHER
DELIVERS TALKS
PROMINENT NEGRO DIVINE AID.
DRESS GOOD AUDIENCE AT
FARGO COLLEGE AND FIRST
METHODIST CHURCH ON SUB
JEcT or TEMPERANCE.

Last night a good sized audience
listened to an address on temperance
and North Dakota temperance laws
delivered by Rev. w. j. Arnold of
Anoka, Mimi, at the First Methodist
church. Rev. Mr.. Arnold is an eminent
colored divine and has an extensive
reputation through the northwest.
He commended very highly the
North Dakota temperance laws and
stated they could not be excelled in
any other state of the union. Due en-
phasis was laid on the fact that this
was not the time for the people of the
fiickertail state to be asleep on the
question, however, as he said the
liquor fraternity was endeavoring to
nullify those laws which have stood SO
long.
The speaker told of his early educa-
ton at Clark university in Georgia
and of his Indebtedness to the northern
people. He said it had always been
his desire to come north after his coll
lege education had been completed and
show to the northerners his intention
Of doing something for them in re-
turn for their assistance to him DUR
ing his earlier life.
Yesterday, Mr. Arnold delivered adj
dresses on the same subject at Fargo
college in the morning and at Aaker's
business college in the afternoon.
After a brief song service, which
followed his remarks, Rev. Mr.. Walters
spoke of the need of people standing
for righteous cause now, when such
an attitude was probahIv MT r,onuIar
The discourse Of both speakers was
sprinkled with pungent witticisms
which got the audience in a good
humor and ready to receive the more
serious side Of the question presented.

In less than a day after he was re-
leased from custody Emil Miller was
again taken in charge. Miller was
lettering around the home of Charles
Cole this morning and his actions were
such that the police department was
called.
Yesterday afternoon Miller appeared
before the insanity board, and the
board found no reason why he should
be confined to an asylum, Conse-
quently he was released and II was
hoped that he would be of no further
trouble. When before the board he
was unusually bright and showed more
intelligence than has been his custom
He went to lodging house last
night and secured room, but this
morning bright and early he found his
way to the Cole home again, He has
oeen oothering the occupants of the
Cole house for several davs and he
was last taken in charge on the COM
plant OF Mr.. Cole, Shortly after his
arrival at his camping ground this
morning he began some maneuvers that
caused Mrs. Cole to telephone to the
ponce TO come and get him.
chief Bowers does not know what
10 DO with Miller. The insanity board
mas turned him down and as vet he
mas committed no deed of great crime
giving the police court officials anv
chance to get him out Of the wav He
is foreigner and has no relatives
In this country to care for him. neither
has he any funds with which he can
care for himself in a private hospi-
tai.
1t has been suggested that he he
slated for disorderly conduct and IN
this manner confine him to iaiI. How
ever, the limit for disorderlv con
duct sentence would not keep him in
confinement any great length of
time.
Scares Women.
Yesterday when he made his set
away he started for the library and n
was here that he first became a nui-
sance. His actions around the read
Ing room frightened the women who
attended the institution and the police
had to remove him from there.
Several other times he has scared
women frightfully. On one occasion
he scared young lady while she was
walking along the street and caused
her to run upon the veranda of the
house of friend, that she might es-
cape Miller. A few days ago ne was
walking down the street with Officer
OVERLY and made grab at a passing
lady. However, Mr.. OVERLY jerked him
back before he could reach the wo-
mans coat. Just what he would have
done had he grabbed the woman Is
not known, but one thing is certain.
his actions have not been anything
that would make any. woman feel at
ease when he is around.
Miller can come before the insanity
board again, but whether he will or
not Is not known. However there
were no witnesses at the hearing yes
terday. and with several people to
testify against him, it is probable that
on a second hearing the board would
decide to send him to Jamestown.
For the present the police officers
may hold him. Although he has been
harmless so far, there is no telling
just when he might break lose and
something should be done to care for
his case.

WEBSTER NINE DEFEATED
Wins a Hard Fought

Nothing

The fastest game of base ball of this
season was played on Tuesday when
the Sisseton and Webster teams crossed
bats on the home diamond. Sisseton
carrying off the honor by score of
3 to 0.
The game was somewhat of a sur
prise to number of people, the pre-
diction being freely made prior to the
game that Sisseton would not even get
a peek in-the forecast being evidently
based on the previous base ball reputa-
ton of the Websterites.
Coffaa pitched one of his fastest
game: and the Webster boys failed to
connect With those ''ring around the
neckers." He struck out twelve men
while Hildebrand of the Webster team
struck out 6.

Living:Over Old Times

Col. +. H. Russell dropped into our
sanctum Tuesday. He was accom-
panied by Robt. Curry, of Amboy,
Minnesota, who was boyhood friend
and companion of Mr.. and Mrs. Russell
back in Pennsylvania. They emigrated
to Minnesota together in the SOS, the
two gentlemen enlisting in the army
for the civil war from that state. They
had not met for many years until We'd
nesday when Mr.. Curry dropped off
here on his trip through the state.
The way these old friends will live over
the years again can be more easily
imagined than described. Of course
the Col. will see to it that his friend
confines himself to facts and figures in
his discourse and does not drift to fic-
ton. We, who are acquainted with
Fred, know he. would never stand for
that but this will not be so much of a
handicap that they cannot enjoy good
visit.
