FORMAL OPENING
OF THE Grand
C. e. DanieIson Was Host to Hun.
dreds Of Friends Saturday Even-
ing-MusIc and Flowers.

The Grand Hotel opening Saturday
night was attended by several thous-
and people who accepted the invita-
ton of the new proprietor, G. E. Dan
ielson, to call and inspect the beauti-
fl! place.
The Grand has been newly decorat-
thousand dollars. New furniture has
been added in many Of the 1875 rooms
and pretty rugs placed thruout the
hotel The greatest change has been
made in the spacious lobby, where a
new tile floor has been laid. Massive
new electrical fixtures have been
placed in the lobby and the entire
place lighted in a brilliant man
ner. The visitors one and all declared
that Mr.. Danielson, who has person
ally superintended the work thruout
the four floors, used excellent judg-
ment. Mr.. Danielson himself is an
old time Knight of the Grip having
travelled in North Dakota and Mime
sofa for years. He evidently knows
what accommodations the travelling
public expect and appreciate, and al
ready has built up a nice business.
Thruout the evening from seven un-
til eleven, music was furnished by Ho-
Winds orchestra. Carnations We're
presented to the women and the mem
bers OF the fair sex were there in
such numbers that four hundred car
nations were disposed of, when the
supply of flowers ran out
Members of the U. G. r., of which
Mr.. Danlelson is member, visited
the hotel in a body at the close of
their meeting
Mr.. Danielson states that he will be
glad to receive visitors at any time,
as many We're undoubtedly prevented
from inspecting the Grand on opening
night.

Case Against Turner Dismissed.

The case against Harry Turner a
member of Company A Of the Second
regiment, North Dakota National
Guard, who was arrested some time
ago on a charge of receiving stolen
property, was dismissed by Justice A.
B. Dill at the preliminary hearing yes
terday afternoon.
The goods which were found in his
trunk had been taken from the George
Mcclure home by Fern Mackey, a do
mestic employed in the home. 1t was
supposed when they were found in
the soldiers trunk that he was party
to the theft. On the trial of the case
itit was proven that he had given the
trunk to the Mackey girl as he had
no place to store it while in the ser
vice. He had placed it in the base
ment of the building in which the
girl was rooming. The stolen property
was placed in the trunk after it had
been delivered to the girl, who had
promised to keep it for Turner.
The Mackey girl is a fugitive from
justice now and the officers do not
know where she is.

FARMERS Want TO
PLACE THE BLAME
Many Who Stopped Work to Take
Horses to Inspection Places Want
to Know Why Inspector Did Not
Show Up.

w. H. Groninger, one of the pioneer
residents of Des Lacs, visited the In
dependent office Wednesday. Mr..
Groninger is II years Of age and
fought in the Civil War. Despite his
advanced age, he appears to be strong
and is as erect as many men a quar-
ter of century younger. Mr.. Gron-
niger has read the Independent relig-
iously for years and likes the paper
but he criticized us in friendly way
for one thing and that was because
this paper has not made satisfactory
explanation as to the reason that no
government representative showed up
at most of the Ward county points as
advertised, when the farmers were
asked to bring in their horses. Mr..
Groninger informs us that the farmers
are as angry as hornets for they con
sidered that they were not treated
right. For instance, thirty farmers
from the vicinity Of Des Lacs left
their work in busy time and took 6S
head Of horses to Des Lacs, expecting
that surely somebody would be on
hand to inspect them. They waited
around for hours. No one showed up.
Nobody telephoned them that the in
spectOr was not to come. They had
to return home late at might and they
will be skeptical the next time that
a proposition Of this nature is made to
them.
The Independent can readily ex-
plain it's participation in the matter.
w. A. Peck, Ward county's Better
Farming agent, visited this office and
requested the Independent to state
that the inspection would be held in
the county on certain dates at GER
tain hours. This paper published the
report gratis, supposing that it was
doing the farmers a real service.
Mr.. Peck was sent to Wisconsin and
South Dakota to look up hay for the
farmers of this vicinity. He did not
learn until after his return home that
the inspection was not held. He
states that he engaged DR.. e. J..
Walsh to take charge of the inspec-
tion and that after Dr. Walsh had
marian considered that the business
was not remunerative enough so de-
cided to give it up.
1t is most unfortunate and regret
able that faith was broken with the
farmers, who will not soon forget it.
The matter should be threshed out,
as it undoubtedly will be, and the
blame placed where it belongs The
Independent does not know just how
many farmers gathered at the various
other points where the inspectors
failed to show up, but there were un-
doubtedly quite large number who
were disappointed.
The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1917-09-06

Ward county's first drafted men, ten
in number, left this city over the 500
at 1915 o'clock Wednesday afternoon
bound for Des Moines, Iowa. They
received their notification the day be-
fore. This is about five per cent of
the total number accepted by the Sc
lective draft in Ward county and the
others are to go little later. The
next call will be for about forty per
cent of the total number They will
leave September 10.
Thousands OF citizens of Minot turn
ed out to give these young men a fit
ting farewell.
The ten men were carried thru the
streets in autos decorated with the
national colors and on one of the ma
chimes was perched war eagle with
