  In a continuation of our systematic search for high proper motion stars in
the Digitized Sky Survey, we have completed the analysis of northern sky fields
at galactic latitudes above 25 degrees. With the help of our SUPERBLINK
software, a powerful automated blink comparator developed by us, we have
identified 1146 stars in the magnitude range 8<r<20 with proper motions
0.500<mu<2.000 arcsec/yr. These include 1080 stars previously listed in
Luyten's proper motion catalogs (LHS, NLTT), 9 stars not previously listed in
the Luyten catalogs but reported elsewhere in the literature (including 1
previously reported by our team), and 57 new objects reported here for the
first time. This paper includes a list of positions, proper motions,
magnitudes, and finder charts for all the new high proper motion stars.
Combined with our previous study of low galactic latitude fields (see Paper I),
our survey now covers over 98% of the northern sky. We conclude that the Luyten
catalogs were 90% complete in the northern sky for stars with 0.5<mu<2.0
arcsec/yr down to magnitude r=19. We discuss the incompleteness of the old
Luyten proper motion survey, and estimate completeness limits for our new
survey.
