Hinraan's case has postponed for fltfr present. been Johnnie Sehoenborn and Henry Deitz went to Duluth last week. Attorney Wolfe of Milnor, in tho city looking after business before the court, paid THE TIMES a pleas ant call yesterday. Mr. J. P. Wilkes and Miss Mahala Royer were married at the residence of the bride's parents by Rev. «T. H. Keeley, Wednesday. The ladies of the W. C, T. U. are preparing to give an entertaiment, members of the' Loyal Temperance Legion taking part in the proceed ings. Judge Tenipleton is a rusher, and with all is decidedly a good judge. He is by long odds the quickest man that ever sat on the bench in this district. Mrs. A. M. Wilcox, state superin tendent of the Juvenile, work of the W. C. T. U. is making arrange ments to travel Ihe presnnt season in the interest of the work. The ladies of the Congregational society will give a social at the re sidence of Mrs. John Ink, Tuesday evening of next twek, March 18lli. All are covdiiilly.invited to attend. A hotel keepe 1 named McCtilloch of Campbell, Minnesota, in* town drunk this week, raised distur bance at Eugene liisehard's store itid being locked up was subse quently taken before a,justice and lined, costs and all amounting to some .$30. Clark Comstrock is in bed wjlh a relapse of the grip, and is quite ill. There is no two ways about tho grip, if one gets it in good shape he should by till means remain, quiet in the house till strong and q'uite over it. We hope and expect Clark will be out in a few weeks. The following marriages were solemnized by Justice Bessie March 5,1890, Chas. Zimmerman and Tillie Erickson, bo of Wahpeton. March 8, 1890. Spencer L. Sanders and Carrie Madsen, both of liattle Lake, Minn. March 12, 1890, John Sherman and Emma Voeltz, both of Wahpeton. Geo. IS. Moody, the horse doctor, can always be found at Michael Schmitt's hotel, the Commercial. Doc." has made many friends among the horsemen and farmers of this section and is considered a fust class judge of horses generally. He has decided to locate here per manently, as his «ad' in another column will show. A large number of ladies and gentlemen of St. John's church, gathered at the parochial residence, Monday evening, and presented Father Albreclil with a very hand some china dinner set, consisting of one hundred pieces. It was an enjoyable presentation, and in re turn as Father Albrecht never fails to entertain Ins guests after the the most approved fashion, the evening was most profitably spent. Valentine Deitz had the misfort une to fall from Mayer Bros, ice house, Tuesday, and broke his right leg between the tinkle and knee and bruised the ankle joints veryseverly. Dr. Quick was called and setting the leg, thinks the patient will get on and come out sound in a few weeks. Valentine struck squarely upon his feet, and then fell over backward. His many friends hope for his s'peedy recovery. He fell twelve feet. The bill locating a school of science at Wahpeton, having passed both houses, it nowremains with Governor Miller as to whether Re presentatives Hankinson and Ink shall develop into full-fledged astron omers, geologists and meteorologists, or remain in the field of politics. Representative Ink is said to be so confident of the governor's approval of the bill that he has purchased a pair of gold-rimmed eyeglasses and is practicing the German professor's pose. William McGeorge, Jr., writes about "Western Mortgages," in Lippincott's Magazine for March. He flrst indicates what constitutes a sale mortgage, and then goes on to show the safety and value of Western mortgages, and the bene fits that have accrued from them. "A Hint to Novelists," by the well known English novelist, W.H. Stac poole, points out in an amusing manner how old material might be worKed up into new books. Anne il. Wharton has an interesting paper upon "The Brownings in Italy," and Felix L. Oswald has a brief article upon "Weather Prophets." Mrs. Joseph Graber died Friday of last week and was buried Sunday afternoon, the Rev. Mr. Keeley con tlucting the funeral exercises. Mrs. Graber was some forty years of age and leaves a husband, two daugh ters and three sons to mourn her death,—one of the daughters being married and residing in Colorado. Kind friends provided the obsequies with beautiful flowers and other wise did all possible to lighten the harden of the stricken family, tho remains being laid at rest in River side cemetery. And in this connec at the request of members of the family THE TIMES would tender their thanks to* the kind friends who assisted them in their hour of affliction. An Absurd Proposition. It is bftt fair to all parties con cerned or interested to state that the Ladies Aid Society of the M. £. Church did not receive any proceeds from the play "My Awful Dad," given at the opera house, March 4, though it was so advertised and further, that as a society they never entertained any proposition to re ceive those proceeds. I say this at tho request of thq society. J. H. KEELEY. Connty Court. Proceedings of the county court before Judge Orcutt, for tho month ending March 1st, 1890. John O.

The indictments against the coun ty commissioners are now being considered before Judge Temple ton. The offense preferred is that the commissioners have been charg ing $3.00 per day for team hire in stead of five cents per mile, as pro vided by law. In the case of Mr. Larson, who charged the usual way, but happened to lump the amount instead of itenizing it, the jury ac quitted him. The next man tried was Mr. Bauer. Well, there was no question about the matter, it had been the custom the past five years to charge 83.00 per day, instead of five cents per mile tor team hire, under the express sanction and ap proval of District-Attorney Lauder, contrary to the wording of the law, there it was, itemized, dated and all, clearly contrary to the wording of the law, hence the jury felt in duty bound to observe the law and bring in a conviction. The fact of the matter is, there would not, ordi narily, be a great deal of difference whether comissioners charged mil eage or by the day in the long run, and we presume that fact had much to do with the advice of Mr. Lauder. The latter's testimony is clear on *Jio point that he so advised then. But of course it is not law. Mr. Myhra's case is now under consider ation, which will qf course come out the same, as his hills were itemized and dated. The court might as well impose its fine and save the farce and expense of a trial by jury in the matter. We understand, however, that part of the commis sioners propose to take the case to the supreme court with a view to break tho indictments, while others may pay the fine, which will un doubtedly be nominal, and drop the matter. Should Hold His Stomach. It is entirely in keeping with the Glob's nature and sense cf duty to ridicule, belittle and demean Mayor Miksche and the German people— ilways and purely for political effect. The truth of the matter is, Mayor Miksche has fully demon strated that if his appointment shall be endorsed by the citizens at the pulls in the coming election, he will, as chief executive of the city, do his duty as such. He is committed to a preservation of the morals of the city to as great an extent as could be asked or expected of any execu tive. He is not committed to the Globe's prohibitory-free-rum-policy, not by any means. The Globe and its little gang of drinking-make believes ought to be loath to tender that policy to Mayor Miksche, a thing they themselves have tho dis tinction of representing. It is true, however, that Mayor Miksche has, in his short service, taken the first ind only step ever seen here toward closing out places of social evil— and these are now banished, which, together with other work performed and^prornised, should be guarantee enough that Mr. Miksche is com mitted to a good and honorable policy, which means that he would, as far as possible, execute the laws as he finds them. His opportuni ties and disposition for good under our coming fanatical law would, we think, be acceptable to most of our people. Not because he is not a fanatic so much as because he would take pride in acting the part of a painstaking citizen and official. And then this chronic and habit ual organ of wisdom and refinement is troubled about the school hoard It would have a board of education composed entirely of as great men tal capacity and profound know ledge as illuminates the editor of this chronic and habitual organ of wisdom and refinement, itself, even though it had to go down into swampy Egypt, Suckerdom, to get them. German descendants would not do. But then let it try and con tain its great moral force and wis dom in patience, let its sour stomach not effervesce wastefully, as it were, and yet not explode! The board will try and worry along. •4, \K"W^ Vol. 11. Wahpeton, Richland Co. North Dakota, Thursday, March 13, 1890.
