Steel laying on the NioDe Short
Line was started Wednesday
morning at Niobe, and over a mile
was laid the first day A crew
of over SO men are employed,
and more men are beng ADDED to
the force every day or two. The
original crew which was shipped
in about two weeks ago went on
a strike on Tuesday of last week,
and all quit and left the country
after working few days. This
necessitated the employing Of a
new crew which delayed work for
about a week. 8 s.sfss 3 a, &
Engineer A. H. Ahlberg, who
has Offices in this city, and who
has complete charge Of the work.
states that about a mile a day .s is
about all the. crew will be able to
handle in track laying, and that
c it will probably be a week before
the work reaches this city. There
is just about enough steel on the
ground to build the track as far
as Bowbells, and it may pe that
a delay will arise larer until more
steel is shipped in, uut .nis is not
likely. .-.a s.t \ .i
AS soon as the track reaches
ARowbells the construction of the
seeion house, platforms, sidetracks,
and depot will commence, and the
road hopes to have two or more
elevators on its site before the
grain starts to move. M: Y IA, s.sf
The reason the work has not been
rushed before was the fact that the
Grand Trunk road ION the Cana
dian side was about month be-
hind the Great Northern with it's
work, and the comp laseion on this
side would be OF no use d until the
road on the other side was ready
for business. Contractors on the
Canadian sid estate that they will
have the grade completed in about
six weeks. and it WIN PROBABLY
take two weeks more before tho
laying of steel reaches the bound-
ary. The steel laying on the Grand
Trunk has been completed as far
as the Mouse River. 81 M. s..- W..
There is little question but that
both the Grand Trunk and the
Great Northern will nave their
roads ready for business by Au-
gust 1st. though both promise to
have them ready before that. In
! ANY event, we do not believe that
Work will be delayed until harvest,
] as to do so would mean the same
scarcity of men that was experienced
last fall. sg s.a..s. 4t4S

lar of sitt went back to the county
whose citizens paid it in-except
the cost of tags, postage, etc.
This year THE amount "A will be

The counties. are supposed to use
this fund for the building of good

is to the automobilist's interests
that the money is so used. With
the amount increasing each year

the counties of North Dakota
should have one Of the best sys-

But it cannot be done by allowing
some to pay the registration fee

by not using the money as the

Construction of the

PART OF STATE. s ...

PART OF STATE. -.g .s.s,
Bowbells is now assured OF an
electric light plant, ana there Is
every reason to believe that same
win be installed before Aug. Is,
and that work will commence on
same within the next three weeks.
J. w. Bearden of Graceville, a
man with many years experience
in electric lighting W as In
the city on Friday last, having
come for the purpose Of submit
ting proposition to our people.
met with the members OF the Com
mercial Club at tho court house
Friday evening with the result
that committee, with A. c. Wip-
er as chairman, was appointed to
go into the proposition fully. and
report to the club at its next
meeting its findings. This COM
mittee, after Intervening q ma
jority of the citizens of the city,
and after careful investigation of
Mr.. Bearden's proposition. has
come to the conclusion that 1t
would be for the best interests OF
the city to accept the mans offer.
All Mr.. Bearden asks the citi-
zens of the city to do is to fur
nish him with a suitable site on
which to erect his plant, and
for the city to go into contract
with him to take ar least 5000
worth of "juice' each year for
street lighting. He promises to
put in q plant when will cost in
the neighborhood Of $4,000, and
would use steam engine to fur
nish the power:
The hours of service would be
from six in the morning ustil day
light, and from the. time 1t gets
dark fifs the evening until &s mid
night, except on Monday and Tues
day forenoons when the current
would be turned on for the bone
fit of those desiring to use same
for washing and ironing.
He wants 20 year franchise OF
the streets and alleys Of the city
in which to erect his poles, lines
and wires. His rates are consid-
erably lower than that being charg-
ed In any of the cities in the west.
being even lower than Mfnot.
The site planned on by both tho
committee and Mr.. Bearden ia the
vacant lot west Of The Tribune
building, which during the past
has been used on which to dis
play farm machinery by the Bow
bells implement Co. Mr. Bearden
wants site 30x100 feet with &C.
cess to the alley at the rear of
The Tribune building. This site
could probably be bought from the
Bowbells Implement Co. for about
$500. 4.
Mr.. Bearden further agrees that
II at any time after his plant has
been in operation for five years
the people feel that he Is not CIV
ing them the proper service, he
is willing to sell the plant to the
city in the following manner:
the mayor to appoint one apprais-
|er, Mr.. Bearden himsel1 to act as
another, and the two to choose q
third, and the price agreed on by
these appraisers snail constitute
the purchase price to be paid in
cash by the city.
The proposition is In every way
the best the city has 80 far been
offered by anybody, and the gen
eral opinion of the people here is
that tho committee did the right
thing in accepting It. Mr.. Beard
en- will be notified in q few; days.
and he promises to come here at

August Anderson Shot.

Friday night August Anderson, the
well known carpenter, was shot in
left leg above the knee, by
the gun that John Larson had set on
the trail to shoot bear that had been
prowling around his camp on the trail
to the Little North Fork. Larson had
been working on the trail where it
crosses Meadow creek, and had but
little grub with him and a bear had
tried to get that. Larson set his gun
in the trail late Friday evening, not
far from the cabin in which he was
camping, and it was but short time
until he heard the report of the gun
and heard Anderson's cry for help.
John hurried to the assistance Of his
neighbor and found his condition such
that he could not be moved to the
cabin, and leaving him on the trail
Larson hurried to Fred Friebe's place
ten miles away for help. The injured
man was carried five miles to the river
and brought down to Ahsahka in boat.
He was shot about o'clock Friday
evening and reached Ahsahka Satur-
day evening about $50. DIR. Fairly
went down to attend the wounded
man and took him to Lewiston Sunday
morning, where DR.. Hurlburt assisted
in dressing the limb. The thigh bone
was fractured but it is believed that
the leg will be saved.
Mr.. Larson regrets the occurrence
very much and is doing all that he can
for Mr.. Anderson, who is one of his
neighbors.

Last Sunday, w. c. Morris, of Spo-
kane, the cartoonist, who h as done the
the work on the Spokesman Review
for the last eight or ten years, gave a
lecture and chalk talk at the Fraser

affair. Mr.. Morris gave short talk on
the work Of the cartoonist and the an
tiquity Of cartoons, and explained con-
ditions under which the work is done.
He then cartooned several local char
acters, among whom were Milo George
feeding the pigs, A. D. Whaley ped
ding vegetables, Sam Eller meeting
bear, and Albert Pech riding a mule.
He made sketches Of local people, in
cluding Rev. j. E. Mountain, Joe Svo-
boda, and w. M. Chandler. He also
cartooned Uncle Sam, Roosevelt and
Taft. Altogether the lecture was in
structive and entertaining.

Death of John w. BerthoH.

John w. Bertholf, who owned small
farm between Greer and Fraser, was
taken i'll Sunday night or Monday
morning, with some acute bowel
trouble. DR.. Horswill was called and
found the patient in serious condition,
but the disease baffled diagnosis. All
was done for him that was possible,
but in fourteen hours after being
stricken he was corpse Owing to
the peculiar nature Of the malady it
1t was decided to hold an autopsy to
determine the cause Of death. Drs.
Horswill and Fairleyaperformed the
operation, and foundfsthe bowels OBJ
structed and full Of hard Jumps Or
knots, and the intestines in such con-
dition generally, that the mans life
could not have been saved had an oper-
alton been performed when aid was
first called. Mr.. Bertholf was at the
train at Greer Sunday evening to meet
his wife, and appeared to be in his
customary health. He had lived be-
tween Greer and Fraser for the past
eight or nine years, having taken a
small homestead there in 1905. De-
ceased was 81 years and nine months
of age, and leaves a wife and three
children. The family is said to be in
very poor financial circumstances, and
worthy subject for the charitably in.
clined to assist.

Made Il Good and Long.

Neither man nor boy is ever ut Il loss
for excuses for not knowing what he
has no mind to know or for not doing
what he has no mind to do. The
wittiest that is recorded in college an
nails is the reason given in the senate
house for not answering the question.
.Who were the minor prophets?" II
do not fill this in" wrote the candi-
date. ''because the inquiry is so invid.
!ous."

this by handing in a written medical
certificate to excuse his nonattendance.
II certify" the medical authority was
made to say. that this boy is unfit to
attend school for 304 days." The
schoolmastcr thought it odd, the in
terim being so long and at the same
time so p%articular.in its date. and upon
inquiry it turned out that the doctor
had written 20 or I" days. which the
boy had altered to 3o4.-Argonaut.
