Grand Forks, N. D., Jan. 3.-Judge
Chas. F. Templeton died in local
hospital at o'clock this morning.

pointed by Governor Church, attor-
ney general for the territory, and he

MEASURES
TO BE URGED.
ENFORCEMENT LEAGUE WANTS
IOWA LAW AND WINEMAN
LIQUOR INSPECTION LAW

The passage of the Wineman liquor
inspection law and the Iowa law, pro-
viding for the removal of officials
charged with law enforcement, by ac-
tion in the district court without .
jury are the two pieces of legislation
hat will be urged by the State En-
forcement league at the presnt ses-
sion of the state legislature according
to Superintendent Watkins.
The Wineman law which provides
for the inspection of liquors coming,
into the state under state inspector
appoined by the governor with depu-
ties approved by the governor would
give information regarding violators
Of the prohibition law, according to
Mr.. Watkins, that would do away with
practically all of the illegal business.
Providing as it does that railway off,
Gals must furnish duplicate receipts
to the inspectors Office covering all.
liquor consignments coming into the
state at ports Of entry, there would
be no difficulty in reaching accurate
conclusions as to who the law break
ers in various localities are.

REPORTS FROM OVER STATE FOR
DECEMBER SHOW ABSENCE
OF STORMS

With the exception Of two Decem-
bers, the mean temperature for the

in % years according to Prof. Howard
Simpson of the United States weather

the period Of % years Of 11.3 degrees.
The only two months which were
warmer were those of December 1894

ly mild weather is declared by ex-
perts to indicate that the North OAK
ota winter is moderating.
The past month was marked also
by the absence of storms notwith-
standing the fact that the highest con-
tinued wind record for the year, Sc

pm. HANDLES
PENSIONS
NEW SYSTEM WENT INTO EFF.
Feet ON JAN. 1 AND P. M.
HANDLES VOUCHERS

Along with the parcels post another
new system went into effect January
l, which is also under the care of
local postmaEers. This was the
change in manner of distributing PEN
sion vouchers. These vouchers are
now sent direct to postmasters who
are responsible for their proper de-
livery.
EARLY in the week Postmaster Metz
ger received 25 vouchers, for persons
who receive pensions at this point. OF
this number all will be delivered with
the exception Of two, one pensioner
having died and one removed. The
postmaster cannot forward voucher
to another Office if the pensioner has
removed, but must send the voucher
back to the department where the
proper adjustment is made. The
vouchers for those deceased are also
returned. The new system makes an
additional responsibility for the post
master, but does away with num-
ber of pension agencies over the
country.

NEARLY ENDS
IN. TRADEGY
MAN INJURED BY OK TEAM
WHILE HAVING FUN WITH
NEWLY MARRIED COUPLE

A little frolick attendant upon the
wedding Of prominent young couple
nearly ended in tragedy last Tues
day morning.
A number of friends had planned 9
big send off for Mr.. Jos. Donohue and
Miss Shea, who were married Tues
dey morning. With this idea in view
n oil. stage coach was brought into
use, the newly married couple placed
therein and march about town STRAIT
ed. Following the coach was double
team oxen attached to the Bruegger
auto truck. The truck was occupied
b. several persons. In front of the
Graphic Office Lloyd Shannon, who
was in the auto party, decided he
would ride one Of the oxen bareback.
He mounted the OK, and had no more
than do so, when the animal begun to
buck, throwing the rider. As Shan
non fell his clothing caught in the
harness and he was dragged under the
OK team, trampled over by both OF
them and run over by the heavy auto.
The auto wheels passed over his
shoulder and neck. After the auto
passed over him he jumped up and
ran across the street to the steps
leading to DR.. Distad's office. This
action. was big surprise to the eye
witnesses, as many thought he had
been killed outright. He was assist
>ed up to the physicians office where a
hAeried examination was made, and
it. was found that he had sustained
three ractured ribs and slight frac-
ture of the skull just above the right
eye, besides many bad bruises. Later
in the day he was removed to the hos
pital, and according to reports will
be able to be out before great while.

A united effort for greater Will
liston seemed to be the spirit pre-
vailing at the get-together meeting Of
the Commercial Club and business
men of the city, held at the I. 0. O.
F. Hall Tuesday night.
Good Attendance
There was good attendance, and
the seats about the hall were nearly
all taken, when Vice President NJ. j.
Borden took the chair and called the
meeting to order, in place of Presi-
dent w. j. Owens, who is attending
the session of the state legislature.
For Plans and Means
Mr.. Borden in his remarks before
calling on any of the speakers said
"This meeting has been called as sort
of a get-to-gether meeting, and for
the purpose of devising plans and pro-
curing means to work for greater
Williston during the coming year"
Mavor Jackson was the first speaker
called upon.
Things Accomplished
Mayor Jackson had prepared a
splendid paper on the history and ac-
complishments of the Williston Com
mercial Club. Many who had not
followed closely the work done dur
ing the past were somewhat surprised
at what the club has accomplished
for the benefit of Williston. The ad-
dress was listened to with much mark
ed attention and was received with
much applause. A vote of thanks OF
the club was extended and the report
was ordered made part of the per-

manent records. This history of the
club prepared by Mr.. Jackson will ap-
pear in full in the next issue Of this
paper.
Another Railway
Among the things advocated by the
various speakers was the procuring
of another railroad for Williston. 1t
was stated that the town had been
able to get a great many things in
the past by going after them, and that
Williston had not gone after anything
that had not been procured, with one
or two exceptions, and then the fault
was not on the part of the city.
Started Something
John Bruegger started something
when he brought up the fair PROPOSE
ton which resulted in some action
being taken in the matter of cleaning
up the obligations of the Fair Asso-
ciation. 1t appears that the club had
agreed to back the Fair Association
should certain deficits occur. Mr..
Bruegger said in part:-"The object
of this meeting, as I understand 1t,
is that all of the citizens, as well as
the members of the club, should know
the purpose of the club. The figures
and facts just submitted no doubt sur
prised all of us. The club cannot ac-
complish much without financial back
ing, and the club must have finances
to back certain propositions. One
thing that would suggest is that the
club get back of the Fair Association
and close up some matters still pend
