Funeral of Neil BrOwnlee Held
Saturday

The funeral of Neil Brownlee, G.
N. conductor, who was killed at Paler-
mo last Thursday when he was struck
by the engine Of No. 2, was held
from the Masonic Temple in this city
Saturday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock
A large number of the members of
Star in the West Lodge, A. F. & A.
M. of which Mr.. Brownlee had been a
member, together with many other
friends attended the services which
were in charge of the Wor. Master
r. w. Pence and the other Masonic
officers. The funeral sermon was
preached by Rev. VIM. C. Hunter
The remains were shipped to the old
home, Brooksville, Pa, accompanied
by L. E. Cordingley, representing the
Conductors and c. O. Hooker, repre-
senting the Trainmen, both men
being Masons.
Mr.. Brownlee had attended the fu-
neral Of sister in Pennsylvania in
August, and letter was received
after his death telling Of the death
of his father-in-law which occurred
September II. The letter explained
that wire would have ben sent but
that Mr.. Brownlee had visited at his
old home in August, consequently he
died without learning of his father-in-
laws demise.

Major and Mrs. A. G. Crane and
son Paul left Minot at one. O'Clock
Saturday afternoon in their auto en-
route to Edinboro, Pa, where Mr.
Crane will begin his duties as Presi-
dent Of the Pennsylvania State Nor.
NAL School upon his arrival.
About twenty-five auto loads OF the
friends of the Crane family gathered
at the Minot Normal school grounds
at 1890 to escort these good people
out of the city and to give them a
fitting farewell. This was complete
surprise to Major and Mrs. Crane
and so affected them that they were
scarcely able to say to their friends
what was really in their hearts. The
Normal school students lined up on
the campus and as the procession left,
waved their handkerchiefs. The fire
engine and police patrol headed the
procession. Mayor Shaw, members
Of the Normal school faculty, scores
of old friends escorted the Crane car
to the foot Of Valley street, where
farewells were given.
To an Independent representative,
Mr.. Crane said: "You may tell the
good people Of Minot that was un-
able to say what would like>to have
said. l shall never forget my good
friends in Minot."

MAK0TI MEN INJURED
IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT

Michael and Vincent WogcieshoW-
ski, well known Makoti businessmen,
were seriously injured late Wednes-
day night when their Dodge roadster
failed to take the turn on the lonr'
winding hill south Of Burling ton. They
were travelling at quite rapid rate
and not being familiar with the road,
were unable to slow down at the
turn. Their car turned over several
times and went into the ditch. The
car was wrecked. The men were
carried into Burlington where they
were given first aid and We're then
brot to st. Joseph's hospital where
they are receiving medical and SUI
gical treatment.
Vincent was badly bruised about the
body, his nose was broken and ne
suffered several scalp wounds. HIS
spine was injured, but just how se,-
iously, doctors cannot say at present.
An X-Ray examination will be made
At present, due to the injury to the
spine, Vincent is suffering from par
alysis. Vincent formerly ran store
at Makoti, but is now a resident Ct

Michael was badly bruised about
the body, several ribs were broken
and he suffered two severe flesh
wounds on the legs. He will without
doubt recover. Michael operates

WHERE THE INDEPENDENT
STANDS

The independent comes in for its
share of abuse from its weekly con-
temporary down the street, for fail
ure to subscribe to all Of the prin-
ciples laid down by Mr.. Townley.
This paper does pose as friend
to the farmer, just as it has always
done ever since the first day of its
publication nearly twenty years ago
This paper has never advocated any
special privileges for any particular
class, but time and again we have
pointed out where the farmer was
getting the worst Of it and have stood
back Of needed reforms. We still in
sist that the farmer has been "made
the goat" when he should have been
given a helping hand and we shall
continue to do all in our power for
the agricultural interests Of North
Dakota, realizing that as the farmer
prospers, so will we all prosper.
This paper believes in a broad CO.
operative farmers program. Col
jective buying has done much for
them. Cooperative creameries and
elevators have been successful where
properly managed.
This paper has never attacked the
Nonpartisan league as a whole, in
fact we have always. been glad to
subscribe to such of its principles as
we believed would prove of actual
benefit to the farmers. We stand
ready today to work hand in hand
with the farmers for anything that
will prove of real benefit to them.
This paper has always reserved the
right to offer any criticism which we
believe might prove of any assist
ance. Many member of the league
has told the Independent editor that
the League had undoubtedly made
mistakes and would probably continue
to make mistakes in the future. This
is to be expected. Honest criticism
can harm no organization, and on the
other hand it may prove helpful.
The Independent has the utmost
faith in the rank and file of the people
of North Dakota. We have little
faith in the present leaders being able
to do for the farmers what they claim
they are attempting to do. They
have had ample opportunity to prove
by deeds the glowing promises that
they made and in this they have sig
nally failed
We are opposed to the present sys-
tenn of managing the bank of North
Dakota. because we feel that it is &C
just exactly the opposite
