UMESTOWN POPULATION 3,500 Jamestown, the metropolla and trade cente of the npper James River Valley, la the county on or Stutsman county. It is equidistant from Fargo and Bismarck, abont one hundred miles from each, and Is located on the most beautiful site alone the line of the Northern Pacific Railroad, between the bluffs and the banks of the James River. The machine and repair shops and headquarters of the Dakota division of the Northern and of he Jamestown A Northern railroads are located here and it is the shipping and distributing point for the vaet scope of country to the northwest reached by the latter railroad. Jamestown has a graded public school, including a high school course, occupying two large school buildings and employing eleven teachers. It con tains six handsome church edifices, and its popu lation, numbering 3,500, is made up from the best and moat enterprising clasees of the northeastern and northwestern states. It is surrounded for ifty miles in every direction by the world-famed wheat lands of the James River Valley, which furnish an Immense and inexhaustible support to department of Industry and commerce. Its hotel accommodations, business blocks, mercantile and commercial enterprise are not surpassed by anv city in the territory. CITY AND COUNTY The public schools closed yeststday evening until next Monday for a Thanks giving holiday. The front of Lloyd's bank has been re modeled this week, and very much im proved in appearance and convenience. A movement is on foot to organize in this city a choral society, to be conducted by Rev. H. Hartman.for instruction in yoice culture and the note system. The sermon by Rev. N. D. Fanning, pastor of the Presbyterian church, last Sunday morning, on the importance ot having an aim in life, was an eminently practical one for saint and sinner. Rev. T. M. Rockwell, the unfortunate minister of Cooperstown who was dis charged from the insane asylum at this place a short time ago, was returned tbis week, his mental malady having become worse again. The proprietors of the Opera skating rink very generously postponed their in tended masquerade and ball advertised far Thanksgiving evening, for the Catho lic fair, which will close this evening with a dance at the Armory. The firemen's ball to be given at the Armoty New Year's eve will be the grandest occasion of the kind ever given in this city. The music will be furnished by Getchell's famous band, ef Farge, and all other necessaries to success and pleas ure will be provided. There will be union Thanksgiving ser vices this morning at eleven o'clock at the Presbyterian church, in which the congregations of the Presbyterian, Bap tist and Methodist cburches will join. The sermon will be preached by Rev. YV. F. Cook, pastor of the Methodist liurch The fare on the James River Valley road to La Moure and intermediate points is as follows: From Jamestown to psi lanti 65c to Montpelier 95c to Dickey $1.65 to Grand Rapids $2.05 to La Moure $2.45. A regular accommodation train will soon be put on the road to make daily trips. Kidder county is in somewhat of a fer ment over serious charges being preferred to the county commissioners against the sheriff and register of deeds, signed in each case by a large number of responsi ble and prominent citizens, asking that legal steps be taken by the county attor ney in the district court to expel them from office. Rev. W. F. Cook, pastor of the Metho dist church, directed his discourse last Sunday evening against Mormon ism. He thought that religious as well as po litical liberty should be restricted, and that the rapid increase in number, and expansion of territory by the Mormon sect, demanded the rousing of public sen timent against it. He declared that Salt Lake City is the seraglio of America, and denounced polygamy as a crime again nature and against woman. The time of redemption in the mortgage sale of the First National bank building expired last week, and the title to the building is now in F. M. Conehay and Johnson Nickeus, the banking office, to gether with all aboyeand below it belong ing to Mr. Nickeus, and the two store rooms, with all above and below, belong ing to Mr. Conehay. The store rooms are rented to F. M. brown Co. for their furniture business, and are now being fitted up for that purpese. The Argus correspondent who attended and wrote up the La Moure excursion in such entertaining style last week seemed to think Brother Burke misapprehended the toast, "The Bankers of Jamestown," to which he was forced into a response by flank (flask) movement of Ward Bill, who was tailed upon for a response. The Ar gus scribe should remember that "to the pore all things are pure," and therefore commercial terms corrupted into "tech nical" uses are liable to be misconstrued by those who are not "onto the racket." Wo observe from the La Moure Prog ress that W. £. Dodge, of this city, was the ladies' man of the excursion that went down the James River Valley line last week, selected no doubt on account of his well known gallantry and high esteem for the "heaven's last best gift to man," as well as for his good looks. At the risk of subjecting him to a "curtain lecture" we publish the following from the Prog ress: "The next toast, 'The Ladies,' was responded to by Mr. Dodge, of James town, who said tbis was a case where the toast was in advance of the speaker, and the speaker waa inadequate to the sub ject. Mr. D. then spoke of the pleasure afforded by the day's trip over this section of tlM world's great binding link, and re fenod wittily to the fathers of the enter prise. It would seem as if duung the past five years the people had been in Kip Van Winkle sleep, and had suddenly awakaaed to find themselves surrounded by pi—ty aad inuepeiitj.

This class numbers thirty-nine. The orignal number was ninety-seven. The class of 18S6 num bers eighty-two. —"For an obvious reason 1 will dis miss the congregation and dispense with the communion service," said Rev. Dr. Leonard, rector of the Episcopal Church at Fairfield, C»nn., on Sunday last, as, at the lirst sounds of the or^an, thou sands of bees swarmed out of the roof, where they had gone into the honey making business. —Haverford College, near Philadel phia. an institution under the care ol' the Orthodox Friends, is made the re siduary legatee of the estate of the late Jacob P. Jones, of Philadelphia. The bequest will amount to half, and per haps three-quarters of a million. It is made in memory of an only son. who was a graduate of the college. —In the death of Rev. Daniel D. Whedon, D. D., at Atlantic Highlands, N. J., the Methodist Episcopal Church loses one of its brightest ornaments. An accomplished scholar, a good writer, an able Biblical commentator, he was more than all a devout and humble Christian. The world is better because he lived and labored in it and surely no higher eulogy could be passed on any man than that. —The latest declaration of independ ence has been made in the Friendly Is lands, where the King, the Court and 11,000 adherents of tne Wesleyan Meth odist Church, have severed themselves from the New South Wales Conference and formed the Independent or Free Church of Tonga. The grievance is that the New South Wales Confer ence would not consent to transfer them to the New Zealand Conference.

The following Thanksgiving proclama tion has been issued by Governor Pierce: TKRRITOKY OK DAKOTA, EXECUTIVE OFFICIO. In accordance with a long established custom the president of the United States has set apart Thursday, the 26th day of November, as a day of national Thanks giving and gratitude to Almighty God for his manifold blessings during the year. The citi/.eus of the territory have more than ordinary cause for thankfulness. Though ill fortune has attended some, the masses have been abundantly blessed. Peace and plenty are upon the land and prosperity in all its borders. It is a season for gratitude, for benevo lence, for charity. It is the day for the prodigal to be welcomed, for differences to be reconciled, lor injuries to lie for given. 1 rccoinmend therefore that the day designated by the president, be observed throughout the territory by ceasing from toil and by appropriate services in church and home. Let kindly deeds toward the suffering and destitute, and tender sym pathy for those who are in sickness and trouble distinguish our observance of this gracious time. Forgetting the strifes and enmities of life let us open wide the doors of charity and good will, remembering that "one touch of nature makes the whole world kin." Given under my hand and the great seal of the territory, this sixth day of SKAI.-I November, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hun dred and eighty-five. GILBERT A. PIKKCI: .Mayor's Proclamation. In conformity with the president of the United States and the governor of our territory, it is recommended that Thurs day, the 26th iust. be observed by the cit izens of Jamestown as a day of thanks giving and praise. While we have been equal participants in the national and ter ritorial blessings vouchsafed, we should not be unmindful of the signal and un precedented favois we have received as a city and a community. Having cast our lot in an agricultural land and the par ticu'arly productive of the world's prin cipal cereal, our support and future de velopment must be determined materially by the rewards of the husbandmen. In God good providence the golden grain has yielded in abundance an peace and plenty are within our borders. We have escaped conflagrations, floods and tem pests. Epidemics which have devastated cities contiguous to our country, *and spread consternation and sorrow in count less homes, have r.ot visited us. In recognition of these and many more blessings, let us on that day participate in public devotion and gather at our hearth stones with our families, our kindred and our friends, with our minds laden with the pucipus memories of dist ant ones, and the dear old home with its hallowed associations, and render unto Him, the Giver, all His due.
