At THE POLICE COURT
Mrs. Charles Crawford Reveals the
Locality of a Hop Joint Down
on Lower Front Street.

There were three prisoners in the
city prison this morning when Judge
Miller called for cases. Charles
Crawford had been arrested at an ear
iy hour this morning, raving mad from
the effects of dope that he had taken,
according to his wife who was present
in the police court. She stated that
he anne home from a joint in the low
er part of the city raving mad and she
was obliged to call a policeman. She
stated that there is a dope joint iocat-
ed IN lower Front street where hop"
could be smoked and cocaine could be
purchased, while many used the nee
die. She asked that her husband be
locked up to see If anything could not
be done to cure him, and he was held.
Sam Lodmel, who has just arrived
from Norway and cannot speak a word
of English, was picked UP last night
by one of the police. He was on his
way to South Dakota, where he has a
brother, and got on the wrong train
and after wandering about this side
of the river he went over to Moorhead,
where he got a LOAD. He had his
ticket for Sioux Falls, So in money and
an old country watch that was so
large 1t almost took the strength of
the officers to move it about. He will
be held until evening and placed on
the Milwaukee for South Dakota.

DRUGGISTS WILL
Be PROSECUTED
WATKINS ISSUES NOTICE THAT
DRUGGISTS WHOSE PERMITS
HAVE BEEN MIsUsED WILL BE
ASKED TO SURRENDER OR WILL
FACE PROSECUTION.

To The Forum: The superintend
ent Of the North Dakota Enforcement
league put in two days last week look
ing up drug permit records in Moun-
trail county. Seven druggists held Der
ILiltS n every one was found to he
violating the law and most of them
~1agrantlY.
One had been allowed a new permit
March H.. He had, according to his
own records, done a $5,O96 LIQUOR busi =
ness last year. Another was granted
a new permit March 1S, and his books
showed a $3.OO1 liquor business in less
than twelve months.
very large amounts of liquor were
u~naccounted for, amounting to enough
Tor over LOO sales in same cases and
IN one case 252 sales in twelve DAYS,
winch indicates that large Quantities
are SOLD and not accounted for on the
DOCKS. On druggist had sold consider
able more liquor than he had bought
according to his own records and posi-
tive evidence is in hand that this drug
Slst sells large amounts without ask
ing the buyer to sign the afidavits.
The law says the states attorney
snail appear and look after the states
interests and the proofs offered to
show the applicant entitled to a. per-
init must be clear, specific, satisfac-
tory and of such character as to leave
in the mind Of the Judge no hesitation
or substantial doubt as to their truth"
Whose fault is it that a permit Is
granted under such conditions as this?
The drug stores in the north part of
the state, many of them, are blindpigs
made respectable by such official &C
tion. There Is no wonder that the peo-
pie complain. Every druggist having
a permit and who has been violating
the law so as to clearly show he is not
selling for medical use but as a bever-
age will now surrender his permit or
he will soon face prosecution. The
North Dakota Enforcement league will
not ask any druggist to turn in but
will urge prosecutions. F. L. Watkins,

Upon the call of Mayor Sweet the
city council met last evening in spe-
cial session to go into the question of
city finances, the mayor taking the POI
sition that the holders of warrants
were clamoring for their money and
that 1t was long overdue and should
be paid. A message was e to the
council which follows. In this mes
sage and during the mayors remarks
he stated that the present administra-
ton and council were not responsible
for this state Of affairs, but that they
came from the fact that the councils
of the past had failed to make provi-
sion for payment and that there were
thousands of dollars owing warrant
holders and that If the money that
was due the city from the school
board, from Fargo college, one or two
churches and others, matters would
be in a much better shape. In fact he
said that this was a heritage from
the past.
During the evening the question of
the county Jail cage of cells was taken
up, and while no legal action was TAX
en- still the city engineer was asked to
examine the cells to ascertain whether
or not they could be utilized by the
city for the space north of the city
hail for a new Jail.
After a short discussion Alderman
Cupler moved that the report of the
mayor be adopted n that the city
lection of the delinquent special as
sessments. The statement was made
that the new commission would have
something to start on in the way of
business and that this action might
assist them materially in getting the
financial affairs of the city ~straighten-
ed out. The following is the message
of the mayor:
The Mayors Message.
To he Honorable City Council
gentlemen: You are perhaps aware
warrants are falling due and that there
is no money in the particular fund to
which such warrants belong to pro-
vide for their payment. This de1ci-
ency is Il to several causes, origin
ating many years ago and the import
ance Of which seems not to have been
recognized in former times because the
day OF fnal settlement could be post
poned until the final maturity of the
warrants. 1t happens that the pres
ent is the period Of final settlement
and the problem is arbitrarily pre-
sented to US for immediate solution.
Ever since the present administra-
ton came into office, we have been
steadily advancing the plans on which
the STTOIS OF the past SHOULD De cor
rected and the funds provided for the
payments of the warrants referred to.
1t has been a long and complicated
job of expert accounting and although
much of the necessary data has been
obtained on which to base an intel
ligent understanding of conditions,
there yet remains much to do. Mean
while, events have advanced with cell
Gritty, the warrants r due before it
has been possible to provide the funds
for their settlement. What is the best
course to pursue in such a crisis is
the matter now UNDER consideration
1t must be remembered, meanwhile,
that the warrants in the general fund,
and the bond issues of h city are
not concerned in the present difficulty,
but only the special assessment war
rants for improvements done many

years ago and consisting Of paving,
sewers. water mains and sidewalks.
Cause Of Deficiency.
The principal causes of the deici-
ency in those funds are follows:
First. Non-payment of the assess
ments against the schools for w
water mains, sidewalks and paving
improvements amounting to many
thousands of dollars.
Second. Insufficiency of assessment
to cover interest cost of carrying as
sessment warrants from date of as
sessment to date when taxes are paid.
Third, Delinquent taxes of Fargo
college.
Fourth, Omitted appropriations Of
the city to care for paving and similar
improvements for city hall, fire house.
etc. ~
Difference Of Opinion.
In none Of the above cases is there
a oeIclency or resources or any at
tempt to evade payment, the trouble
being mainly a difference of opinion
as 10 the proper procedure and dila-
tory. methods in negotiating for set
Elements. l therefore recommend that
whereas all time of extension has been
exhausted and that whereas no ma
chlnery of negotiation or adiudica-
ton is as exact, equitable or expedite
Gus as that Of the courts, that the
city attorney be instructed to commence
forthwith the proper proceedings to
compel the earliest payment Of ali
taxes due the city by or on account of
the public schools of the city, the pub
lie parks. Fargo college and the
Evangelical church.
His Recommendation.
I recommend further that the sne-
clal accounting now under way be
continued and prosecuted with increas-
ed vigor. l recommend that an inn
mediate appropriation be made from

share in past due. sewer. water main

special assessments as may be shown
by the properly approved account
ants report now being made. / rec
ommend that the alley assessment in
G. A. Roberts addition be referred to
the assessment commission for cor
rected assessment. I recommend that
all deferred interest payments carry
interest at the same rate as the prin-
cipal. l recommend that it be the de-
clared sense of this council that every
dollar of just and legal obligation of
the city will be recognized, and the
payment thereof made in the short
est time possible.
In conclusion, gentlemen, I want to
say that the change in our form of
government at just this time has made
it impossible to conclude plans con-
templated, which / believe would not
only have averted this unpleasant diff
ficu1ty but would in about four months
have rectif1ed the causes of the diff
f1culty as above described, inherited
from periods of long ago. l believe,
however, it is our duty to take such
action as above recommended in order
that our successors may have the least
difficulty possible in meeting the
emergency.

WAYS OF FINDING PARTNERS
Some New and Original Ideas Which
Intending Hostesses May Find
of Real Value.

A correspondent kindly tells OF
these ways to find partners.
"One girl had conundrums written
on cards and given to the girls; the
answers to these were handed to the
gentlemen and they were numbered
corresponding with the numbers on
the girls cards; they were told to
find who their partners were. An
other girl had the girls names writ
ten backward on cards and handed
them to the gentlemen and told them
to make out who their partners were.
Another girl had small piece cut out
of the card; the pieces were given to
the girls and the other portions of the
cards were given to the gentlemen
and they were told to look for the
girl who held the card corresponding
with theirs. Another put the girls
names on cards and they were put in
envelopes and sealed and hid in DIFF
ferent places in the parlor."
