aago,'but as Mr. Fulton was the only
person holding such a position he was
allowed to continue for life. He enter

Opinions—five.
In a nut shell that is the condition of
the board of county'commissioners on
the matter of ttbuilding the county
courtli^use.
Oneifumiuissioner is of the opinion
that tw debns should be removed and
an eiltfft-e new structure erected.
Anot|ier is yf the opinion that the an
nex siliipuld tie rebuilt and a new build
ing coj^strnctnl.'on the foundation walls
of toe turned building.
Another tliyk« that the annex
should ."be repaid! and all of the coun
ty outers huddled into it and time
the consideration of a new
takeii

Ano|

and
er liftlfeves that it- would be
jlicV'to rent quarters for the
whert'. they can be together
I a ftjll expression of the tax-
payer|si(6n the matter of a liew building,
and that not a dollar should be ex
pended 011 the ruins.
And-Still another thinks that the an
nex should be rebuilded and the insur
ance irtbney—and no more—used in re
building the old courthouse.
The matter was taken up by' the
board for discussion late yestetday
afterjidon, and the foregoing opinions
are practically the result of the board's
deliberations. Nothing definite was
decided upon, but it is more than likely
that the board will ultimately decide to
rebuild the annex as cheaply as pos
sible, putting iii plain board finish and
stock doors, reducing the size of all
rooms and putting all of the officers in
this building for the present. Then, if
it is decided to build an entirely new
structure, this cheap material can be
torn out and the loss will be small. It
is held^.that if this plan is adopted the
officials, while having limited quarters
will be all together and will have an
ample 'vault service. This scheme will
probably be adopted, if it is found that
the expense of rebuilding is smaller
than the expense of renting temporary
quartet's.

OBJECTS TO ANY CHANGE.
Farmer Wallace TcDi Why (he Name Allrcd
County Should Be Preserved.
Ffarmer Wallace in The Bismarck
Tribune: We are informed by the state
press itliat the residents of the counties
of Allred, McKeiuie and Wallace pro
pose to consolidate these three coun
ties. organize and call it Roosevelt.
I
do not object to the consolidation
—that is a matter, for the actual resi
dents and the executive under the law
to decide. But 1 do most earnestly
protest again aft'the proposition to ef
face the name of Allred from the coun
ty names, and the insertion of that of
any other person, dead or living.
I am at a loss to know the motive
that actuates those who make this prop
osition. 1 believe it springs from those
who do not know who Allred was, or
what service he rendered the old ter
ritory. the -stale-and the nation.
I
furthermore believe that if Presi

informed of the
high character and good record of L.
J. Allred, lie would advise and insist
that the name of Allred be continued
011
the map for. all tin\e. lie would
not. countenance, the erasure of that,
name and the insertion of his own.
L. J. Allred was one of the men of
whoni Abraham Lincoln said: "The
world will little note nor long remem
ber what we say here, but it can never
forget what Ui$y /lid here." The prop
position to erase his name, coining as
it. does so soon after he has been laid
to rest, does not harmonize with the
eloquent tribute of the martyred presi
dent., L. J. Allred was ojie of the first
,iP£U to enlist, fit tjie, breaking out. jpi
the ciyil war. He joined the First Min
nesota regiment- which was the-, first
tendered to President Lincoln to de
fend the union. He served with that
•regiment in the army of the Potomac
and was in .a^44)$ .principal battles of
that grand branch of the army. He
was one of the 300 who defended Cem
etery Hill at ^Gettysburg, and was in
the charge of tMit goo against
3,000
ad­
vancing confederates. It was a pivotal
point and battle and the Minnesota
First held the Hill until reinforcements
arrived. After the war in the early
seventies he settled in Cass County. He
was a plain, sturdy, industrious, up
right farmer citizen, highly respected
by the pioneer settlers.
he was elected to the terri­
torial legislature and during that ses
sion introduced the capjtol removal
bill. That w^as passed and led to the
location of the capitol at Bismarck.
During this session many new counties
were carved out and named, and recog
nizing in L. J. Allred the typical pio
neer farmer, the gallant and heroic
veteran of the civil war. a name that
would honor a county, they placed his
name
-the map. and expected it to
remain there with those other pioneer
•names—Barnes, Kidder. Stutsman, Bur
Heigh. Traill. Cavalier. Griggs and Rich
—all of whom have passed away, leav
