VBM FABGd FOHtm AKD XA%Y REPtJBLICAKi SATTJHDAY EVENING, NOVEMBBB COURT SyPRtl REVERSES ITSELF IMPORTANT M'LEAN COUNTY CA8E DECIDED IN FAVOR QF ROBINSON ESTATE. Bismarck, N. D., Nov. 23.—The su preme court of the state In the case of O. A. Knudtson vs. John J. Robinson et al., reversed Itself In a decision filed Saturday. Last spring the court on an appeal from McLean county reversed Judge Winchester's order dismissing the case. Newton A Dullum asked for a rehearing which the court granted and now the same court reverses itself and sustains Judge Winchester's order dismissing the case. The facts are: On Oct. 15, 1901, at his own house, John J. Robinson of McLean county made a contract to aell 960 acres of land for $8,160. His wife was present, but was not consulted. On Oct. 19, 1902, Robinson died by his own hand, testate. The defendants set up the fact which was not disputed, that the homestead had never been selected and set off, and that Mrs. Robinson could make this selection, and that after doing so Bhe could not compel a specific performance on the balance of the land, and as there is no mutuality of contract, it could not be enforced. Newto & Dullum are pleased over this decision, as It saves their clients about $40,000. The case has excited a great deal of interest in McLean county, where Robinson was well known* and where the heirs are living at present. The news of this decision will be reoeived with pleasure by the frlonds of the Robinson famfty. SHERIFF 18 BACK Returns From Coast With Man Wanted for Swindling Loeal Firm. Bismarck, N.

Railroads NO PISSES FOE BOOS "ON 880 AFTER DEU Understood Several Other North west ern Roads Will Follow Lead of too •—Baggagemen Pleased. Dogs will not be carried for nothing after Dee. 1 on the Boo line. The reason which called forth this order which has just been issued is probably i hat of economy, although the local fllcials would not discuss that point. Is well known that the baggage cars are loaded to their capacity most of the time and that it is a great trouble to the baggagemen to take care of the dogs during the hunting season. At present there is no distinction as to the way in which dogs are shipped, but under the new rule they will be treated as baggage. A dog which has a collar and chain attached will be rated as 160 pounds of excess bag gage, which If crated it will be rated as only 100 pounds of excess baggage. Thia will materially reduce the risks which baggagemen run In handling dogs. It is understood that several of the other northwestern roads will fol low the lead of the Boo line and cut dogg off the fre« list. !i WILL FIGHT Three Transcontinental Lines Will Soon Be in Briskest Kind of Com* petition—Dull Spell Over. Transcontinental railroads are be ginning a hard struggle with one an other for the rapidly increasing freight traffic between the Pacific coast and the markets of the east. During the dull times of the past year the roads were all making pre parations for this great battle, but on ly with the return of prosperity and the Increase in indusctrial activity has the competition begun to be notice able. The first move has been made by the Northern Pacific road, which has chopped off 24 hours from the running time of its fast freights between here and the Pacific Coast. The Great Northern will follow suit and the Chicago, Milwaukee ft St. Paul road, when completed, will add a third competitor to the list. NORTHERN fiKEAT PAYS BIG FINE COMPLAINT MADE AT REYNOLD8 THAT COMPANY DID NOT HAVE IT8 PLATFORM LIT UP BEFORE ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE OF TRAINS. Grand Vtorks, N. D., Nor. ft.— Judgment was filed against the Great Northern railway today In district court for $186.90 in a case In which the state of North Dakota was the plaintiff. Complaint was filed against the company that they had failed to keep their depot platform lighted ac cording to law at Reynolds. A new law passed by the legislature two years ago compels a railroad to light its depot platform for half an hour be fore the arrival and half an hour after the departure of a passenger train. After the case was filed in court the road decided to put up no fight .evi dently deciding that the law was cons titutional and so a judgment by de fault was entered. The action was brought by States Attorney Wineman in behalf of the state and Murphy A Dugan appeared for the Great Northern. It was understood the Great North ern has decided to keep platforms all lighted In accordance with the law. This was the first case brought to en force the law In North Dakota.

Sether was seen by a Indepen dent representative. He says that a few days ago while he was out look ing for some stray pigs, he chanced to walk across the corner of Games' land. The man and his wife came rushing out and Games made for aether, according to the story. Sether walked away from Games, who came up and tried to do him bodily harm. Sether claims that Games' wife picked up some stones and hurled them at him, two taking effect. Sether was not badly injured. S. M. Jensen and Joe Sadek, who saw the encounter, rushed toward the scene of the fray, but their services were not needed. It will be remembered that Games was recently arrested for unlawful co habitation, but he settled the dif ficulty by marrying his victim.

A large congregation at the First Congregational church last evening followed Hon. Frank M. Eddy's earn est and eloquent exposition of the claim of temperance upon right-think ing minds. His rare gift for invest ing familiar subjects with fresh in terest shone to great advantage and furnished new reasons for their habit to the most confirmed abstainers as well as decidedly cogent incentives tor the great unreached to get in line.' Mr. Eddy employs effectively, yet within legitimate lines, the appeal to the prevalent ambition not to be come unclassed by participation In a socially obnoxious habit. To put the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages under a more rigid taboo is the method he emphasizes. (It must be remembered that his field of work Is almost wholly in the districts that do not as yet have prohibition stat utes. Simply as a marker of the method of social pressure against the liquor Interest The Forum notes with interest that Edward XII ever since his accession to the throne has been a total abstainer, the Prince of Wales has followed his father's example and it is considered bad form among the peers to drink hard at their clubs. There has In fact never been a time when temperance has had the social prestige in royal circles that It now enjoys. Queen WUhelmina of Holland and her mother, the queen of Bwtden, King Alfonso of Spain, and the king of Italy are all advocates of temper ance and while they may not go so far as does King Edward and order that their healths be drunk in water instead of wine they are directly af fecting the convivial habits of their associates and ultimately of their re spective peoples. person who spends It Is a answerer of ads.
