DAYS DOING At
STATE CAPITAL
PASSAGE OF PARCEL POST WILL
MAKE BUSY RURAL CARRIERS.
OTHER ATLANTA NEWS.

Atlanta, Sept. THE passage Of a
Dill for parcels post or express
which will be in operation about the
nrst Of January, makes the rural car
rler more important person than
heretofore. He will also grow in i'm
portance as the system develops and
the farmers are brought into closer
touch with the towns by having a
parcels post or express wagon reach
out into the country.
Senator Hoke Smith mada three
speeches just before the adjournment
OF congress bearing on different
phases of this movement for the i'm
proyement of conditions in the coun-
try.
One of these improvement speeches
was on road building, which is of more
vital necessity in view of the parcels
express. The senator advocated gov
ernmental aid to the construction and
maintenance of roads, and especially
favored what was known as Class z
Roads, of about the type of sand clay
roads, which are easily built and
are comparatively cheap, and for the
same expense would afford good roads
to much larger number of people
than the more expensive roads like
macadam.
Senator Smith also advocated the
zone system of charges for the par
cells post, which gives a cheaper rate
for the short hauls tnan for the long
hauls, thus making the lowest rate
possible for the distances which the
farmers will most frequently use.
The senator also urged increased
pay for the rural carriers. The post
office committee, OF which ne is
member, reported in FAVOR of increas-
ing the pay TO $1,000 per year, and
Senator Smith offered an amendment
in the senate making the pay $1,000.
The senate adopted his amendment,
but when the bill went to the confer
ence committee Senator Smiths
amendment was not agreed to, al
though the increase to $1,100 was al
lowed.
Senator Smith will, however, con-
tinue to urge the increase and is of
the opinion that the increased revenue
from the parcels post or express will
more than justify the increased pay
of the carriers, who have to go to
heavy expense for their horses and
vehicles.

MARROW ESCAPE.

Major P. J. McClory, one of the
leading attorneys of Devils Lake, ar
rived here Monday, and is registered
at the Mckenzie. He has some mat
tiers to argue before the supreme
court and today is busily engaged at
the capitol.
While enroute to this city yester-
day, and riding on Great Northern
train No. 2, the train left the track
when near Fargo and piled up some
of the cars. The car just ahead of
the che in which Major McClory was
riding, was crushed to pieces, but no
fatalities resulted. The car he was
in was turned nearly on its side and
the passengers had considerable diff
ficulty in extricating themselves from
the wreck. A few bruises and
scratches were received but nothing

In commenting upon the events of
the Indian days at Yates and that vi
cinity, he said:
Il we'll remember the Spicer family
murder. l was one of the first to
! reach the house after the family had
been murdered. The cause of that
murder was one, Jack Flynn, who was
running the post saloon at the time,
and told the Indians that Spicer, the
preacher. had all the whisky of this
part of the country cached in his cel-
lar.
The Indians took him at his word"
; continued Mr.. Parkins, land immedi-
ately made plans to get hold Of it. A
raid was organized Some of the In
dams slipped away from the reserva-
ton and went to the Spicer home and
murdered the whole family and then
ransacked the house from top to bot
tom to find the liquor supposed to be
there.
Shortly after the murder the In
dians implicated in the affair were
caught and tried for murder and were
taken to the old Jail at Williamsport
for safe keeping. Feeling was run
ming high and the people in that coun-
try had not the prime ideas of justice
they now have. Justice then was
meted out to the offenders in a short
shrift and long rope A few of the
cowboys and settlers got together,
organized and went to Williamsport
and took the prisoners from the GUS
tody of the officers and strung them
up. After Kidding the bodies with
bullets they left the victims of their
wrath hanging. Efforts were made
to aprehend the perpetrators of the
last offense but nothing ever came of
it, and thus closed one of the early
bloody chapters of North Dakota's
history"

When the contract for the pastu-
rage of the Standing Rock reserva'
ton runs out next year, the last OF
the great government contracts for
range will have expired in this state
and the picturesque rancher and ranch
life will soon be thing of the past.
Few people realize the strides that
progress has made in this western
country until the matter is brought
home to them by trip over the vast
plains of a double.decada ago to see
what has taken place. The simple
rude log house or corral has been re-
placed by frame buildings. The fence
less range has been broken up and
the trails of the long ago are being
blotted out by the modern methods OF
road building.
Great trains rush across the coun-
try where once the only sounds to be
heard were the lowing of battle, the
whiz of the arrow or the plaintive cry
of the -poor-will. 1ntersecting
lines have been constructed and join
the main lines of traffic. Industries
have sprung up and where in the
early day every thing had to be
freighted overland, the country is now
exporting the products and bringing
in luxuries and necessaries.
One of the last of the ranchers, and
a person who has figured in the his
tory of the state for many years, is
Walter S. Parkins, now living in Man.
dan. For many years he was the In
dian trader at Fort Yates and was
connected with the various matters
pertaining to the tribes that inhabited
the country west and south of the fort.
He now maintains the only ranch of
size in that territory and it is his
contract with Uncle Sam that will ex-
pire during the coming year, and
which, it is very likely will never be
renewed. He is running at present
some 5000 head of cattle, and 500
h.rses, and has taken to raising good

The fire was in the heart of the finan-

fought mainly from the tops of the
towering skyscrapers. Business was
