SCRAP AT
MINOT DEPOT

Minot N. D., Aug. 2S.-People at the
Great Northern passenger station Fri
day afternoon were given a free exhi-
bition of boxing, which, according to
their say, was worth more than the
average advertised ring match. Two
we'll known Minot men were engaged
in a bout in which the bigger of the
two had his opponent down and just
about out. A large crowd gathered
but no one ventured to stop the scrap
until well built little fellow,
stranger, emerged from the spectators
and grabbed the man on top by his
collar restoring him to a perpendicu-
lar position Satisfied that he had
done HIS duty he started to leave the
field Of action when he found a scrap
on his own hands. Those who were at
the station say that the way the lit
tie fellow delivered enough scientific
blows to set his opponent flying up the
viaduct was something pretty good.
and to show him that they appre-
ciated his boxing he was showered
with cigars. Il was just ready to give
him one in the solar plexus," he mod
estly explained after putting a minute
or two on a smoke, "but I'm dead
broke and / didn't dare put him out
and run the risk Of getting run In"

The bankers objected to some Of the

year.
Before another equalization is made
by the state the tax commission will
have come into existence and it re-
mains to be seen whether 1t will pro-
vide a solution of the difficulties of
taxation. The fact that the members
are not to be appointed until July i,

versed in the duties Of their Office
when the time for equalization comes.
The members are to be appointed by
the governor and the appointments
confirmed by the senate. The senate
will not be in session until six months
after the first appointments are made.
