OUR TOWNS IMPROVE
MINT.

II you cannot see the great i'm.
provements which have taken
place in our town within the past
twoyears you are blind. And when
we say improvements we do not
mean in any ono particular eth
or. There have been enormous
improvements made in the way
of residence building and re-
modelling, there have been IN
provements in the way of added
business houses, and above all
there has been an Improvement
in the moral tone of the place.
IL has not been long since IL was
a common sight to see mon disa-
greedy drunk on the streets,
while now it is a very uncom-
mon sight to see any man under
the influence of liquor. And in
every other way the town has
greatly improved. A general
wave of progressiveness and q
feeling for higher morals ap.
pears to have taken hold of our
people, and here as elsewhere
public sentiment regulates pub
lie conduct. When public senti-
ment demands higher moral
life the result is always a better
place, and when the public agrees
that they live in the very best
section Of the country then i'm
provement begins and this infec-
ton spreads even to the stranger
that is within your gate. We
have the very best town and is
situated in the very best section
of the state and our own paople
have awakened to the fact. There
is still greater and better town
coming. Are you aiding in the
forward movement.

statements in regard to Phineas bod
sons parole.
! beg to say that ! have never had
! any story to offer in regard to this
matter. If You refer to my communl-
cation to the Minneapolis Journal,
which | herewith enclose, this com
municatioa is not a stor, but a state
ment of facts; and l wish to say to
you that Mr. Geo. p. Jones, States
Attorney of LaMoure county, did sign
this application of Dodson's just as
stated in my communication to the
Journal. The application bears Mr..
Jones signature to the certificate,
which is Oh file in the Office Of this
institution and is a part of the pub
lie records. r..
! trust that you will see the justice
in my request that you not only pub
fish this communication. but that you
will also publish my communication
to the Journal, in order that the PEG.

3SGROvE,a N. IT,, Nov. 16. 1912.-Min-
neapolis Journal-In your issue OF
November 14th, on page IA, the first
column, you have under the heading,
"HorsethiefS Parol~ d. an article in
which you state that the citizens of
LaMoure County are offended by the
action of the Parole Board OF this
state in paroling one Dodson. Among
other things you state, YOU say that
no notice Of the application for the
parole was given to either the Dis
trict Judge or the States Attorney OF
LaMoure County.
The records of the Parole Board
show that a notice was published in
the "LaMoure Echo" on August Sth,
1912, and that Mr.. George P. Jones.
States Attorney Of LaMoure County,
signed the application for parole and,
certified to the fact that there were
no other charges pending against the
said Dodson.
The Parole Board held this case ov-
er from September until October. Civ
ling every person who should desire
ITO be heard an ample opportunity to
be heard. No protests was filed. On
the contrary the enclosed afidavit
signed by prominent people of La
Moure county was filed with the board
showing the previous good character
of Dodson.
The special correspondence which
you published seems to be dated at
jamestown. believe that the state
ments in this news item are3not war

in all fairness to the Parole Board
you should give the SANE publicity to
this statement as was given in the ar

DUTY OF Pardoning Board.

, jamestown Alert: There has been
a great deal OF criticism of the state
pardoning board in releasing from
he prnitentiary men convicted of the
most serious crimes against society
and individuals, and whose conyic-
tons were secured at great expense
by the authorities of various coun-
Ties. Remington, the noted Cass cOun-
ty murderer, sent up for a life SEN
tencc. is IN %intsance In which peo-
pie of a community feel that the
board has acted unwisely; and in the
case OF "A no,ed horse thief from La
Moure county, people of that locality
are said % be Indignant at his re-
lease from {. well deserved punish
ment in the state pen.
The laws of North Dakota seem to
present great contrasts in the pen
alties prescribed for certain crimes,
Men are serving in the pe~ni.entiary
long sentences for what are In real
ity petty crimes, such as are of daily
occurrence and heard in police,
courts. For robbery the statutory
penalties are very severe, and yet the
amount taken may be insignificant.
A case in this respect Is seen IN the
application for pardon from Grand
Forks county, where a man vas con-
victed and sentenced for ten years
for holding up the driver Of a milk
wagon in daylight and taking a
trihing sum Of between IS and $40.
In such cases a pardon or parole
might well be considered, after rea-
sentence had been served.

else common sense and carefully con-
