What Others Think.
Duluth Herald: Here's the free,
open hearted manner in which the
Grand Forks Herald boosts the ball
team from that city: "The report has
been made so often that no one has
yet been signed for the Grand Forks
team that the fans are- losing inter
est and don't seem, to care a rap
whether they are signed or not." And
again, the same paper breaks out as
follows: "Bill Hanrahan leaves to
night to join the Winnipeg team at
Minneapolis. A Grand Forks team
without Hanrahan will seem queer."
Might Build a Roof.
local citizen 06 prominence who
received a thorough wetting at the
Ityeat Northern depot this morning,
and whose mind was naturally biased
on the subject, suggested that Jim
Hill might build a huge glass arch
roof over his trains to keep passengers
boarding and alighting from getting
wet, so long as he intended to build
an addition to the depot anyway. The
suggestion, according to others who
listened, was not altogether umiss.
Arc Investing.
On the strengths of the reports that
the Great Northern is to spend some
thing like $100,000 011 improvements at
Devils Lake the coming year, it is
stated that a number of Grand Forks
railway men are investing quite heav
ily in real estate in that city. The re
port has gone out several times, and
been denied as often, that the com
pany intends constructing shops at the
lake, but as yet there is nothing au
thentic.

ture of the illness causing death, the

The cases from Emerado are now in
the pest house in this city, and are al
most recovered. There is a case ft
Antlers and two in the country fifteen
miles northwest of Dawson. All the
cases are decidedly mild and the fact
that they come after a long period of
freedom from the disease indicates
that tlig matter is entirely under con
trol in this state.
Bit Farmer.
George Meiklejohn was in the city
from Starkweather today. He was for
several years the bonanza farmer of
Ramsey county, operating one of the
largest individual farms in the state.
Noon hour on the farm in harvest and
threshing time was somewhat like the
bivouacing of a small army. Mpre
than a hundred horses were employed

pany of soldiers. Mr. Meiklejohn has
sold his farm and is now taking life
easy.

cell and sworn to by the defendant's
wife, the police last night arrested M.

MR. COOPER'S
STATEMENT
lie Calls Attention to the Unfair Man.
ner in Which the Herald Denomin­
ates the Meeting to Be Held Tonight
and Makes an Explanation.
A reporter of The Evening Times
called Insurance Commissioner Coop
er's attention to the article which ap
peared in this morning's Herald in
reference to what that paper called a
meeting of the "machine politicians" of
this county, and asked him what lie
had to say in reference to the matter.
His reply indicated the unfair con
struction which the Herald attempted
to place upon the matter. Mr. Cooper
has held the office of insurance com
missioner for one term and it has al
ways been the policy of the republican
party in this state to concede the offi
cial in this position two terms. Mr.
Cooper desires to be a candidate for
re-nomination If the conduct of the
office under his administration has
been such that he is worthy of a re
election. To determine his course in
the matter and also the best method of
getting his candidacy before the peo
ple should his- friends endorse the
same, he wrote'to a number of his per
sonal friends to meet him in this city
to discuss the matter and to take what
action they thought best. If the con
clusion of his friends in reference to
his action as a prospective candidate,
and taking their advice in the matter
is "machine politics," he is perfectly
willing to be counted a machine poli
tician. But he is willing' to .submit to
the intelligence of a fair-minded pub
lic whether such an action is sufficient
to justify the insinuations made in the
Herald.
PEG'GERS HAVE FINE NEW
BASEBALL PARK
Tfie Maroons will have their grounds
this year in connection with the new
amusement enterprise, known as "Hap
pyland," which, is being constructed
at Winnipeg.
The following is a clipping from the
Manitoba Free Press: "Arrangements
were completed between the manage
ments of the Winnipeg Baseball club
of the Northern-Copper Country clubs
league and the management of the
new West End Amusement park, Hap
pyland. whereby the professional ball
games will be "played at Happyland
this coming season. The new park
will open on May 21, according to the
present plans of the promoters, which
will be three days after the opening
of the league season. The maroon
managment, however, has arranged to
use River park until the new park Is
ready, which means that the opening
game of the season will take place at
the old ball grounds, on Majj 17.
Grand Forks will be the opposing
team in the first series, and it is be
lieved that after the first series is com
pleted Happyland will be ready for the
Maroons, when another opening will
take place.
"The new ball park will be up-to
date in every particular. It will have
a grand stand to accommodate 3,000
pviple, while bleachers will be erected
Unseat 2,000 more. The stands will be
of the latest pattern, and fitted with
every convenience for the public. The
diamond will be laid out by an expert,
pointing from northwest to southeast.
Dressing rooms with shower baths and
other appurtenances will be put in for
the players."

STUDY MORBID
TISSUES
Members of North Dakota Medical Pro­
fession Take Up-Matter of Organ­
izing Pathological Society—Bill Be.
fore Last Legislature.
At a recent meeting of the Grand
Forks Medical society, a committee
was appointed for the purpose of can
vassing the members, of the. mcdic il
profession of North Dakota with ref
erence to organizing a State Pathologi
cal society. The committee appointed
formulated a series of questions and
wrote to every registered physician
in the state, asking for an immediate
reply upon an enclosed postal card.
Four hundred and twenty-five physi
cians were addressed and very hearty
responses have been received and are
being received every day.
At the last session of the ligislature
there was passed a bill appropriating
a_sum of money for the purpose of
establishing a pathological institute^
but when the measure came to the gov
ernor for his signature, he vetoed it
instead. It has been stated since that
the power of veto was used while the
governor was resting under a misap
prehension.
Because of the inability to secure
funds from the state, those interested
in the formation of the proposed in
stitute, had to Invent other means.
The physicians of North Dakota are
therefore being asked for money and
somewhat like $400 or |500 is already
in hand with more to come. Uader
their auspices, jointly with the medical
department of the state university, it
is proposed to forward the movement.
The work of a pathological institute
consists in the main of research into
and determination of mbbid tissues.
Such questions as that of pure water
•and pure milk, which have at various
times engaged the attention of our
Commercial club, would be in the
realm of the institute work. The an
alytical work would naturally be car
ried on in the laboratories^ the med
ical college at the university.
At this meeting of the local medical
society at which the matter was dis
cussed, a committee consisting of Drs.
Healy, Taylor and McDonald was ap
pointed to take up the matter with
the state medical society.

suspicion that Hill has designs on ter

however, Portage la Prairie is the des

It is reported that the'Greiat North
