This bulwark Of strength. which
commanded the whole Of the fertile
valley. was sthe product Of the archi-

dered into tho central part Of Mexico
no later than the seventh century.
Pressed as they were at times by
hordes Of less cultured tribes from the
north. they lost no opportunity in
spying out the places of vantage.
When a jagged rock towering 200
feet above the floor Of the level val
ley was discovered, 1t was to the Toll
tees a special gift from their gods
and they Immediately set to work
throwing up defenses that they might
be prepared for any invader.
AZ the massive foundations Of the
present castle Of Chapultepec testify,
the ancient builders threw up struc-
lures that would have offered protec-
ton even from tho great guns of to-
day. They built that they might be
certain to hold the wonderful valley
they had found. and the misty rec
ords Of that empire. Of which history
knows only enough to mako one para
graph, shows that II was not by-force
of arms alone that the great COM
monwealth tottsred and fell but, like
Rome, 1t rotted from within.
During tho period Of Toltec occu-
pancy the castle was evidently q
fortress only. With the coming of
the victorious Aztecs and their luxury
loving monarchs, elaborately furnish
ed halls sprang up between the pal
isades Of porphyry. Each succeeding
emperor added to the strength and
beauty that characterized the ma
tion's well guarded aerie, until the
shadow Of Moctezuma Xocoyotzin fell
across the dial and the great Aztec
empire rushed to its end with the
speed of the comet Of 1919. by which

Judge G.. f. AmiEon, who was called
away from the c'+y on Jan. 10, to pre-
side in three cases at Kansas City and
st. Louis, will return to Fargo to-
night. w. f. Copeland, court report

trip returned to the city this morn

get back.
Mr.. Copeland, formerly Of Spokane,
Wash, shortly before Judge Amidon
left on his trip, succeeded Miss M.
Nymon as court reporter. We spent
three weeks in Kansas City hearing
the Martin Avery case,'' said Mr..
Copeland. while in Kansas City the
weather was extremely cold and was
anything but pleasant. From there we
went to St Louis and the first case
Judge Amidon sat in was the famous
Kimmel case. This case from an iden-
tihcation standpoint, was the most
dramatic affair / ever witnessed. 1t
was a case where the relatives of a
man named Kimmel who was sup
posed to have been dead, were en-
deayoring to collect insurance amount
ing to $4,000.
'"The defense in this action produced
a nan opposed to be Kimmel. n
jury in this case stood twelve to one
that the man who was said to be Kim
mel was not the real Kimmel, u an
imposter.
Next came the case of b. 6. Lewis
who was charged with using the malls
to defrau6. The jury was a to
agree and Judge Amidon Monday aft
~ernoon discharged them after they had
deliberated seventy hours. Nine Jurors
stood for convic ion and three for &C
~quittal. The judge was disappointed
in the trial and say that he was re-
l~unctant to accept a disagreement
and regarded it as a calamity to be
avoided. Lewis will be tried again by

After over two months of try
ing experience. the Chronicle is
at last re-established with a new
outfit and ready for business. this
issue being the first number since
the fire to be put into type and
printed from our new plant. which
is located in the Dickinson build
ing on Blanche street, across. the
corner from the First National
Bank.
Immediately after the destruc-
ton of our plant we opened ne
gotiations for more modern
printing outfit, buying machinery
and type from firms in New York,
Chicago, Omaha and St. Paul.
which was assembled in the lat
ter city and shipped in carload
lot direct to Beach by the c. l.
johnson Mfg. Co., from whom
we purchased the larger portion
of our plant. The car. containing
$4,000 pounds or l6Lz tons. ar
rived here December 2, and since
that time we have been busy hav-
ing it erected and put in running
order. 1t took Whitaker & Gil
man, local draymen, two days to
move the plant from the car to
the Dickinson building and eight
days for Val Schwartz, the erect
ing mechanic of the c. |. John
son Company, to erect the ma
chinery and put it in running or
der. This will give our readers
some idea of the size of our new
plant, As it now stands it is by
far the largest and most modern
printing establishment in North
Dakota west of the Big Missouri
river, and there are few print
shops or newspaper establish
ments in the state that equal it
outside the large daily paper es-
tablishments at Fargo, Bismarck
and Grand Forks. 1t represents
