SHEPPERU WILL
STAY IN FARGO

Mandan, n. D., Nov. 25.-It is prac-
tiCatiy certain now that Prof. j.. H.
Shepperd, who was slated for the pO-
sitiOn Of superintendent of the Man
dan station, will not come here. Pro-
fessOr ~ShcppeTd has q very fine posi-
ton with the agricultural college at
Fargo and has his home there and
owns considerable property in that
city. Mrs. Shepperd also has a posi-
ton as chemist at the college. and
though very deeply interested in this
station, Professor SheppeTd has about
decided to retain his present position
and residence in Fargo.
An effort was made this week to
have Professor Shepperd come out
here while DIR. Chilcott was here to go
over the proposition and discuss the
part that the state epeCts to. take in
the experimental work, but he was due
to deliver an address at the land show
and could not come.
AS soon as congress V an
effort will be made to secure an ad-
ditfonal appropriation for this pro-
ject. The original bill called for
100000, but this was cut in the
conference committee to $50, 900. The
Importance of the work, covering as
it does, experimentation in plants,
trees n fruits, which may be sue
cessfully grown in the semi-arid states
covering Montana, Idaho, Utah, wy
oming, Nebraska and the two Dako-
tas, 1t is believed will appeal to CON
gress sufficiently to enable the appro-
priation of all the funds needed for
the work.
DIR. Chilcott while here has had
levels of the 40 acre tract on the Heart
river bottom taken. This, it is pro-
posed to buy for the purpose Of irriga-
ton and also for testing the growth
Of plants on the bottom land.

Into the sufficiency of such bonds boil
as to the form and the general bust
ness conduct and reliability Of thN
Eureties, and for such purpose maj
summon any witnesses before them
that they please. Whether they can
in such cases. by court procedure OF
otherwise, compel the attendance OF
such witnesses and require testimony
under oath is q matter not here dea
tern1ined.
3. In passing upon the sufficiency
of bonds furnished by the elevator
companies, or the necessity of requir-
ing new bonds, the jurisdiction of the
board is over the elevator companies
rather than over the bonding COM
panies or sureties. 1t has therefore,
no right in cas- of a controversy be-
tween the ticket-holders Of an I'M
solvent company and a surety on
bonding company, to summon the said
bonding company before it and threat
en- to cancel it's bonds unless it SO
appears and makes satisfactory settle
ment with the said t~icket-holders. 1t
may not seek by such to force a set
Element. 1t may, however, inquire into
the transaction for the purpose of sat+
isfying itself as to the business relia-
bility of said bonding company, and
if dissatisfied with the good faith OF
business methods OF said surety, re-
quire other bonds TO be given by tho
| elevator companies.
4. While passing upon such bonds
and performing such duties, such
board is acting in a quasi-judicial ca
pacity, and can not be controlled in
the exercise Of it's discretion by man-
damus or prohibition.
s. The mere fact that a surety
| company has been licensed by the in-
surance commissioners to do business
within the state of North Dakota does
not authorize such company to COM
pei the approval of it's bonds by the
board Of railroad commissioners IL
sufficient as to form and amount, IL
such commissioners are dissatisfied
with the business habits or conduct
Of the surety, or. for any other SINH
lar reason, believes the bonds to be
! insufficient. --m
6. Mandamus cannot be brought by
the surety on a bond to compel the ac-
ceptance or continued approval OF
proceedings should be brought by the
principal, and not by the surety. The
same is true of the writ of prohibit
ton when sought to be obtained to
prevent a board which is vested with
the power of approval, from disap+
proving it's said bonds.

The CHRISTIANS
annual Meeting

Minot, n. D., Nov. 25.-The annual
state convention of the Christian
church closed yesterday with three
meetings. They were all well attended
and most interesting. They took
place at the Lyceum theatre, which
was kindly donated for the occasion.
Rev. A.. F. Hunaker was the speaker
in the morning; Rev. J. l.. Imhoff in
the afternoon and Miss Ada Foster and
other well known speakers addressed
the audience in the evening. On Fri
day evening the delegates were enter
tanned at the home of L. d. McGahan
and a dinner, followed by a number of
toasts helped to make the evening pass
pleasantly. The meetings during the
latter part of the week took place at
the Odd Fellows hall. and many of the
people of the city were present.
Miss Ada Foster who is at the head
of the missionary work in the state
of Minnesota did much to make the
meetings interesting, as did also Rev.
f. B. Sapp, of Fargo who is the state
missionary, and under whose auspices
the meeting were held. Mr.. Sapp is
very much pleased with the first an
nuaI convention and said that it was a
good beginning and really more of a
success than he had ever hoped it
would be.

Hand I'm Finding Market for
Surplus Potato Stocks.

At a meeting of the directors of the
Clay County Potato Growers associa-
ton, last Saturday evening, the mar
keting and sale of the surplus stock
of Red River Ohios now in the hands
of the farmers was considered, more
particularly the feasibility of putting

markets for present consumption. A
committee was appointed to investigate
and a number of kilograms were sent
to stragetic points asking for infor-
nation. A. number of replies were re-
Ceived this morning and the outlook is
very encouraging to the committee
which is to meet this afternoon to sub
init it's report. In some parts of the
county there has been little or no
movement of potatoes this fall and it is
felt that something must be done to
ind the markets which will be open
for all the stOCks there are mere and
whatever is necessary to be lone in the
way of advertising the fact far and
wide will be lone to bring about the
disposition of the stocks which are

good many feel that the wheat market

cally is SO unfavorable we are advis-
ing purchases on the dips. The visible
supply was not given out today on

is likely to be a scalping affair.
Ware & Leland-We cannot believe
that n advance in wheat will be
permanent and suggest sales on little

Finley Darrell & Co.-Action of

largely by political developments over
Sunday. We look for higher prices for

AvaiIabIe for settlement.

Sec. W. r. Mackenzie Of the North
ern Minnesota Development associa-
ton says that there are 80. 10000 0
acres Of land available to settlement
in northern Minnesota, rs per cent Of
which is tillable. These lands will
undoubtedly attract many farmers
from the middle western states when
the advantages are properly put be-
fore them. The disappointments OF
dreary Canada are not to be o
tered in Minnesota, and once settlers
are attracted to this vast area of
virgin soil the prosperity and growth
of the state will know no bounds.
