Illinois Settlers Here

Messrs I. O'Connor, j. c. KERN, A.

Illinois, have spent several days of the
past week in looking over farm proper
rites in the neighborhood of Lang
don, Dresden and Clyde that local real
estate men have listed for SALE They
come from the same part of the state of
Illinois as the Lothspeichs, north of
town, and also have several old neighbors
among the Illinois colony that moved
icto the western part of this county near
Clyde in recent years. The party ar
rived here Thursday last week being
accompanied on their trip by Mr.. Arthur
Foster, who since removing from Clyde
has become engaged IN the real estate
business. The showing made by Cava-
lier county with its fine stand of harvest
ed grain so favorably impressed the
party that all closed deals for farm prop
critics here and will move from Illinois
with their families and personal effects
this fall to make homes for themselves
in Cavalier county. Mr.. j. Graney has
become the owner of the Robert Fleming
town and farm property at Dresden and

CORNER STONE
LAID THURSDAY
Imposing Ceremony Marks Laying
of Corner Stone of Langdon's
New School Building

The corner stone of Langdon's new
public school building was laid on
Thursday afternoon of last week the
exercises being somewhat delayed in
starting by the lateness of the arrival of
the lis passenger, which brought from
Fargo the principal speaker of the occa-
sion, Rev. DR.. Walters, whose address
upon "Monuments of Great Men," won
for him instant recognition and will be
long remembered by those who heard
it. Mayor Fox, who is also president of
the board of education, ,swas in charge of
the exercise, and the children of the
school with their glee club, songs and
class yells gave just the right amount of
enthusiasm to the event. When the stone
was laid an iron box was given place in
the massive masonry and contain
ed short history OF Langdon and its
growth along educational lines, the pa
per being prepared and read by Miss
LaBelle Mahon. The stone also contain
ed copies of local papers containing re-
ports of Langdon's visitation by cyclone
in May 1909 and others detailing the loss
of the school building by fire February
3, 1911. The text of Miss Mahon's paper
on Langdon's school historyis here given:
The history of the City OF Langdon is
short, but filled with much achievement
and steady progress 1t Is only twenty
eight years ago, in 1883, since Patrick
McHugh and W. j. Mooney first filed on
the claim upon which the City OF
Langdon is now situated. At that time
the nearest town to the east was Olga,
a French and half breed village, seven
teen miles away, while Hannah, to the
north, was only post Office.
In 1884 Cavalier county was organic
ed, but there was only the smallest
beginning of town here then. In 1887
the city was organized with Patrick
McHugh as mayor. The first city
council meeting was held April II, 1888.
In the previous year the Great North
ern railway company continued their
Park River branch to Langdon. AL
though not coincident with the city
organization, the organization of the
board of education came shortly after
wards. Their first meeting was held
February Is, 1889, with the following
members in Office: John, Mahon, presi-
dent; J. McPhail, B. R. Click, 3. ].
Donovan, r. j. Meikleiohn, and W.J.
Mooney, directors, g. Barcelo, clerk,
j. e. Truax, treasurer and e. J.. Fox, as
city superintendent. Up to May, 1890
the city used the township school house
sharing equally in the expense. In that
year they came to an agreement by
which the township paid the city sum
for keeping the school open and the
the children Of the township attended
the town school, Joseph Power was
the first teacher.

HAMILTON GETS
/, final DECISION
Supreme Court Decides That J. K
Hamilton Was Elected Auditor
of Cavalier County.

Legally qualified voters of North
Dakota will not be disfranchised be-
cause of oversights upon the part of a
voting precincts registration board
decision to that effect being made by
the state supreme court in the case
of Power VS.. Hamilton, growing out of
the contest for the Office of county
auditor of Cavalier county.
The supreme court upholds the de-
cision of the lower court, which was to
the effect that Hamilton, the defendant,
should retain the office to which he was
elected, despite the fact that the voters
in the City of Langdon had not register
ed, being sworn in, at the time of cast
ing their ballots,
The action was based on the fact
that Hamilton had been elected county
auditor by small majority, such ma
jority being given him by the Langdon
voters. Should the Langion votes be
thrown out, then Power would have the
majority.
Proceedings to eliminate the Langdon
vote were launched but were unsuccess-
full, the supreme court holding that as
long as the spirit of the law had been
followed, that such fact was sufficient.
The syllabus follows:
"In. constituting a statute, the court
will give effect to the spirit, rather than
the mere letter of the same, with view
to efcctuatlng the evident intention of
the legislature, and to this end, the
courts, where necessary to carry out the
evident legislative intent, will limit
general language ofan act to the cases
contemp ated by it. In other words,
where the enforcement of general statu~
tory provision, to particular facts clearly
not in the contemplation of the legisla-
ture, would lead to unjust and absurd
results. the court is justified and ap-
| plication of such general provisions so
as not to thwart the legislative will.
Apply the above rule of statutory
construction. Held, constituting section
1888, r. G. 1905, that the provision there
in providing that vote of non
registered person shall not be received
or counted unless such voter furnishes
an oath of householder and register
ed voter has no application, where as in
the case at bar, the officers, through an
oversight, omit and neglect to meet as
u registration board; and when, as in
the case at bar, the non-registered
voters, who admittedly are qualified
electors, furnish their affidavit. as re-
quired by said state, their votes must
be received and counted.

LIGHTNING KILLED
BOY ON TUESDAY
Terrible Story of Havoc Wrought
by Tuesday Afternoons Heavy
Electrical Storm.

At the farm of Otto Dettler, six miles
South of Langdon, the storm of thunder
and lightning which prevailed over
Cavalier county throughout Tuesday
afternoon, certainly did its greatest
amount of damage. 1t was between five
and six o'clock when the Dettler barn
was struck by lightning. The barn at
the time was filed. Sixteen horses, three
men and two boys taking shelter from
the storm raging and expectings lthat
afternoon to start threshing on the
Dettler farm,
One boy, Willie Waltz, son OF neigh
bor, and driving one of the threshing
teams, was killed by the lightning
Alongside of him stood Leonard Dettler,
another boy of about fourteen years, who
was brought back to life after being un-
conscious two hours. The horse in front
of which the two boys stood, was killed
and fifteen other horses in the barn
when first found, were thought to have
been killed, as all lay in their stalls ap-
parently dead. Mr.. Dettler himself and
Rudolph Miller, were both knocked
senseless when the barn was struck, but
were IN short time able help in bring
ing back to life his son and his hired
man, an Austrian, whose name is Brock.
off, and came to this country six months
ago. 1t was not known that Brockofl
was in the barn until smoke was seen tc
be issuing from the door of the hay loft
over head. When taken out his clothing
was on fire. The storm is one of the
worst that residents of that section O
the county hvve ever seen.
In addition TO the above reports hav,

part of the county of loss of property

Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1911-09-14

In February, 1891, a public meeting
was called and new $4,000, building
was ordered and erected The district
was bonded for Sc, 600 at that time.
While this building was IN course of
construction, school was held at the
Watkins hall and the city hail.
In 1898, Mr Thomas Sheehan, super
intendent from 1892 to 1901 introduced
high school studies into the school.
UnderSuperintendent Richard Hayward
the first class of four member, Viola
Truax, Helen Sullivan, Leonore ALERT
and Cecil Mahon graduated from the
high school, June 4. 1903.
The seating capacity of the school be-
ing found inadequate, in 1899 a
new building was ordered. This school
was duplicate of the first building
set sixteen feet to the east and con-
nected to it by hall on both floors,
The cost of this building was $4,000 and
the city was bonded for $4,000 more.
In 1907 the seating capacity was again
increased by enlarging the halls be-
tween the two buildings SO that they
accommodate grade each. On May 20,
1909 the City of Langdon was rartly
destroyed by cyclone. The school was
keensiderably damaged, the repairs cost
ing about 5000.
During the night of Feb'y 3, 1911, a
fee of unknown origin destroyed the
school buildings and their entire con-
tents. The estimated loss was $4,000,
partly covered by insurance amount
ing 10 slO,5OO. The use of the Presby-
terlan church, the Masonic temple, and
the court house was given to the board
of education to make possible the
completion of the school year. The
board of education decided that an ex-
penditure of $4,000 would be necessary
to erect an adequate school building
This sum was beyond the debt limit Of
the district. The valuation of the city
was raised as high as possible and the
city warrants we're backed by personal
notes to the extent of $4,000. The
general contract was let to Bowers
Bros, of Fargo, North Dakota, and
Messrs Hixby and Gillespie, also Of
Fargo, we're the architects. The new
building is situated on the exact site Of
the two former buildings. The new

statuary and class memorials that were
familiar to them. Yet we trust tina,

attend school here
