TEMPERANCE FORCES
AT WASHINGTON SPLIT
International RefOrr League and AnSaoOn League Are at
Logger Heads Over the Enforcement Of the Old
Indian Treaties in Minnesota

Washington, Jan. 7-Dissention has
split the forces of the temperance
workers in the whiskey fight in
Minnesota.
The International Reform bureau of
which Wilbur Crafts is the active head
is at loggerheads with the w. c. T.
u. and the American Anti Saloon
league insofar as the question Of cop
ing with the liquor situation in Min
nesota is concerned. Crafts stands out
boldly for a suspension of the Indian
treaties which have made it necessary
for the government to step in and
create dry zone that was never in
tended for prohibition territory after
the whites had once 6ntaiifed pos
session. The Anti-Saloon league on
the other hand takes the advanced
ground that the treaties ought to be
abrogated for the reason that the ter
ritory in question has entirely passed
out Of Indian hands, is no longer -oc-
cupied by Indians and is to all intents
and purposes white" territory.

ment," declared Rev. e. c. Dinwiddie,
superintendent of the American Anti
Saloon league discussing the situation
the other day, "and we find 1t wholly
inconsistent to take one position one
day and a different one the next sim
ply, because it suits our convenience"

JUDICIAL DIST.
DIVISION TALK

Bismarck, N. d, Jan. 9.--Several ju-
dicial district division bills will be
brought up for consideration during
the coming session. On9 OF the bills
proposed, 1t is rumored, viii divide the
present Eighth judicial district. A
new district will be constructed out of
Mckenzie. Williams, Mountrail and
probably Divide counties. This will
leave Burke, Renville and Wssrd eoun-
ties in the present district designated
as the Eighth.
If such division were effected the
Eighth. district could cover a. popula-
tion Of 42,1s5, while the other new dis
trict which would probably b. the
Eleventh, would cover population of
34,460.
Another bill is understood to provide
for the division of the Eighth ana
Tenth districts and make three out
of them. Under such 81 plan the d.
vision would possibly be made up on
the basis Of population in all the coun-
ties of the two present districts.

But the fact that q breach has oc-

WELL KNOWN CITIZEN OF FAR
GO SAYS ENeERUD's NAME is
NOW IN THE HANDS OF THE
PRESIDENT AND he WILL BE.
OFFICIALLY NAMED.

81 have been given to understand
that Judge Engerud's name is now in
the hands Of President Taft, and that
his selection as district attorney for
North Dakota may be announced at
any time" said a well known citizen
of Fargo today, who is in touch with
affairs at Washington.
The term of Patrick III. Rourke Of
Lisbon is already at an end and 1t has
been generally understood among the
local politicians that Engerud would be
the next United States district at
foTney.
If Judge Engerud should be named
TO fill the position his appointment
would be more than satisfactory to
the lawyers of Fargo and the state.
His long service on the bench of the
supreme court of North Dakota and
his practice in the legal profession,
has made him most capable for the
position.

The fact that the United States SUI

This defiance was answered by an
appeal from the decision of the chair.
This called for a protracted roll call.

publicans voted to overrule the speak
