OLD VETERAN DEAD.
William H. Palmer, of Buffalo Gap,
Died Saturday, Aged % Years.


Died Saturday, Aged % Years.
Quite number from this city, in
cluding delegation from Silas A.
Strickland Post, G. A. R., were at Buf-
falo Gap Monday afternoon to attend
the funeral of one of the honored old
veterans of this section, Captain w.
III. Palmer, whose death OCCURRED Sat-
urday, March 4th, aged seventy.three
years, three months and twenty-six
days.
After brief private service at the
house for the relatives only, the funer-
al services were held from the Audi.
torium, by Rev. 7. B. WILDER, of this
city, and was very largely attended.
Members of the G. A. r. post gave
the ritual at the grave. Deceased was q
member for years of the U. 8. Grant
Post No. 5, of Philadelphia, and was
buried with the badge of his Post up
on his breast, membership of which
he was proud because it was made up
Of the members of General Grants
old regiment.
Captain Palmer came to Buffalo GAP
in 1890 and had resided there contin-
uously since that time. His son,
William H., Jr., is we'll known bank
er at that place.
William Howard Palmer was born in
Lincoln county, Ohio, November 8th,
1887, where he lived until 1857, when
he moved to Illinois. In 1861 Mr.. Pal
mer enlisted in the Illinois regiment
that was afterwards known as General
Grants regiment from the fact that
1t was the only regiment that the great
Commander was colonel of during the
war. He served in this regiment till
the close Of the war, rising to the rank
of first lieutenant, commanding a
company and doing the work of cap
tain. For this reason he was known
as Captain Palmer. The Captain came
through all the battles of the war
without wounds or serious harm but in
the last skirmish at Bentonville, North
Carolina, was severely wounded in the
right leg and was compelled to have it
smputeted
On December End, 1858 he was mar
ried to Sarah H. Hammell. Four chill.
dren we're born to them, son, William
H., three daughters, Mrs. Pitts, of
Deadwood, Mrs. Walden, of Belmont,
Nebraska, and Elizabeth, who died six
months and one day before the day of
her fathers death. The very serious
illness Of the aged widow, who was not
able to leave her bed, brought an ad-
ded sorrow to the funeral services.
Besides the widow and three children,
Captain Palmer leaves thirteen grand
children.

THE srockwELL CASE.

The supreme court has affirmed the
decision of Judge Templeton and de-
eided that w. L. stockwell, former SUI
perintendent Of public instruction.
must turn into the. state treasury
about $4,000 in fees. s
Mr.. stockwell assumed that all the
fees Of his Office were his personal
perquisites. He spent part of them
for hiring extra clerks and used the
balance as his own account.
The Forum called attention to the
matter. 1t was charged with personal
malice against Mr.. stockwell-with
political motives--and a few other
crimes and misdemeanors.
No accounting, whatever, was made
by Mr.. stockwell of nearly SIS 900 Of
the fees. Only partial accounting
without vouchers--was made for al
most that much more.
Attorney General Miller might have
brought an action to recover between
$1,000 and $4,000 as well as for the
sum for which he did sue. II win
now be necessary for Mr.. StockwelI 10
reimburse the state for the amount
improperly used. Under the decision
attention Is called to the law reonir-
ing reports Of fees at the end Of each
official term. AS these reports were
not made Mr.. stockweu would be H.
able to criminal prosecution--but II
is extremely unlikely that such action
will result.
4 The Forum feels that its position in
the matter has been entirely vindicat-
ed by the court decisions. 1t holds No
malice against Mr.. Stockwell and re-
grets the publicity was necessary to
compel a proper and businesslike
method OF conducting a state office.
In Mr.. StockwelPs behalf 1t may be
said that he acted on precedent ana
evidently believed he was justified in
appropriating these fees. Where he
made his mistake was not In seeking
legal carbohydrates than constitu.
ting himself the judge OF the situa,
ton.
The suits against stockwell and
State Treasurer Bickford were I'M
pleasant. They gave the state unen-
viaele notoriety-but the results win
clarity the oficIal situation In North
Dakota--and there viii be q closer
compliance with both the letter and
the spirit Of the law in the future.

them between acts at the theatre they
would show more consideration in the
matter. Therefore, call the atten-
ton OF any gentleman who may
chance to read these lines to two inn
portant facts. The FIRST lii that the
space between the rows OF seats IN a
theatre is not designed for i prome-
made.
In order for any person In a row TO
pass out. every other person In that
row has to get up and stand up,
fiattened against his or her own seat
and with his or her belongings clutch
ed In hts or her hand to prevent the
destruction OF said articles II is a
most tiresome, awkward and incon-
venient position for anybody to be
called upon TO assume, and nobody ex-
cept human hog would be selfish
enough to ask such sacrifice OF his
fellow creatures.
The second point to which / direct
my readers notice is that at the
theatre woman is encumbered with
the following articles wrap, a fan.
a handkerchief, opera glasses, q bag
and her hat Six articles In ALL which
she has to grab up and hold above her
head out of danger every time the
peregrinating pig makes his pilgrim
age to the drink trough Nobody short
Of slight-of hand performers can make
lightning grab at all OF these diff.
ferent things and keep them from be-
Ing torn, broken or mashed, and the
result Is that almost every time some
thing is broken or destroyed, a result
which is not atoned for NV a gr1Inted
apology
Naturally men viii deny that they
all scale the mountain passes OF won-
ems finery at the theatre in order to
drink. They say they wished to stretch
their legs, and that they get tired and
nervous sitting still. / have my
warmest sympathy for people with st.
Vitus dance or any malady that rem
ders II impossible for them to keep
quiet, but. surely such afflicted indi-
viduals should have enough considera-
ton to always buy end seats where
they can get In and out without dis
turbing the public. or else the theatre
should segregate them to
some section OF the theatre where they
can step on each other without wor- |
rying anybody else.
The truth Of the matter is that there
- no earthly excuse, except violent III |
ness Tor any man not to sit out a |
play without annoying every woman |
In his vicinity. There is a law that
makes women take Off their hats in |
The theatre, and there should be an
other one to prevent men from going /
out between the acts.

have a great responsibility resting up
on them. Within a few years they
win supersede their fathers in con-
Quoting the commercial and indus

viii within short time be the

The hope OF Fargo's future rests on

Ia largely with them what the moral

whether 1t will be OF low degree or
whether 1t will be of high degree,
which signifies the best citizenship

where In today's Forum is an am

Hanna modestly refers to his private
and public life. 1t is like an open

There are a great many republicans

training-and his native ability and
integrity eminently qualify him for
the position Of executive.

The University OF Wisconsin put
over good one when the physical di-
rector of ladies at that institution es-

taught the young women how to take
things easy.
But the University OF Cincinnati
goes 1t one better. Miss Marguerite
Gray. the physical director at the Ohio
school, is teaching the young lady
students how to play marbles with
their bare toes.
BY this means each little toe Is to
move all by itself. After playing Bos-

1T 10 EVEN so.

Dorothy Dix. who writes syndicate
stuff for q line of newspapers, occas-
ionaily hits the nail so we'll on the
head that she is entitled to special
mention. In . recent article she dis
cussed the habit men at theatres have
OF tramplng all over the wemen--go-
ing In and out between acts. OF
course In Fargo they don't so out for
a drtnk--but the habit is as obnoxi-
Gus as elsewhere. She says:
At this beginning of the theatrical
season desire to address a few earn
