NEWS OF THE NORTHWEST

den at Minot caused the latter gentle
ma to suspect that some citizens of
this village We're feasting on fowl be-
longing to the state of North Dakota,
unlawfully and before the season
opened. Investigations by the secret
service men, in the employ of the. game
board, uncovered the fact that certain
parties in Crary were absolutely gull
ty Of shooting ducks.
A warrant was sworn out by Deputy
Warden Orchard, before J., w. Kelley,
justice of the peace, and Louis. lie Due
and John LIE Due were arrested.
States Attorney Cuthbert of Devils
Lake prosecuted the case for the state.
The defendants were found guilty and
fined $40 and costs which amounted to
$22.40, making a total of $52.40 and, as
1t is said they hot about a dozen, it
would make the average cost per foul
of about $4.54 each, which makes a
rather expensive dinner.
The secret men are doing a wonder
full work around the state as they pop
up in the very most remote places, and
have not yet failed to get their man,
not only arrested but convicted. Fine
results of the enforcement Of the pres

Hillsboro, N. D., Aug. Hollow
ing a spirited fight the city council of
Hillsboro has fixed Sept. 2, as the
date for the special election at which
the question of adopting the commits

mitted. "
1t was not until the courts had been
restored to, however, that the election
was called, the council first disallow-
ing petitions asking for a chance to
vote on the question. &,ajla 49,
r. Charges of bad faith, made by sew.

claim being raised that the commission
proposition had been brought to the
front as a means of securing the re-
moVal of present officials, especially
Mayor ], L. Anderson. the Norwegian
Baptist minister, who became the
city's chief executive as the socialist
candidate, about fifteen months ago.
Hillsboro is the smallest North Da-.

EFFICIENCY IN SCHOOLS.
:corinne District Considering a Cottage
.. for the Principal. ~. .

jamestown. N. D., Aug. 7.-some-
thing in the way of an innovation
in district school affairs is con-
templated in Corinne school district.
They have a consolidated school, the
first in the entire county. and the
board contemplates the erection of a
cottage in the school yard for the
principal and his wife.
S. T. Galyen has been engaged as
principal at a salary of 500 a month
and he will have general supervision
of the school buildings and grounds,
something found necessary in con-
solidated schools. Mr.. and Mrs, Gal
yen will occupy the cottage when
built and the problem of securing a
place for the principal and teachers
to make their home will have been
solved -- in this instance at least
While by no means new, this is an
ideal plan which will add much to
the efficiency of the school.
This consolidated school employs a
principal and'a single grade teacher.
