While at Rugby Mon lay last, we met W.
d. McClintock of Towner, and had some
talk concerning political conditions in Nc
Henry county. 1t seems that many Re-
publicans are disgruntled this year by the
action Of the party leaders. So strong was
this feeling that an entire Independent:
county ticket has been put in the held-Mr.
McClintock being one of the nominees-and
a-good fel ow, too.
A. w Hofacker spent the greater part
of the week in Bottineau visiting his rel
! atives and while here, put up a telephone
line from V. B. Mobiles office to the court
house-Mr. Noble being more fond of US
ing his mouth than his legs. Mr.. H. is
living at Breckenridge. MINI, and has
been for many years one of the valued
employees of the w. U. Telegraph Co.
There are so many circumstances and COM
binations to be taken into consideration in
the coming election 1t will be hard to defn-
lteiy forecast the result. Ore thing looks
pretty certain, however, and that is the
election of John D:nwoodie for treasurer.
While we are not on Mr.. Dinwoodie's side
OF the fence politically, W. must say we
his hands. He is thoroughly competent
and his integrity has never been questioned.
Grand Forks Herald: p. D.. Armour,
Jr., son Of the noted packer, has made a
valuable contribution to the wheat feeding
experiments. On September 18th he
weighed eighteen pigs; they weighed 1,975
pounds. From that time until September
both the pigs received NO food except 1850
pounds OF crushed wheat. They were then
weighed. again and found to weigh 1850
pounds, a gain Of 595 pounds In the thirteen
days. AT the market price Of & cents this
would make 500. 25 for the Increased weight,
or a little over 95 cents per bushel for the
wheat fed. The wheat cost Armour about
81 cents a buslel.
During the last few days, a couple Of
attorneys have been in the place taking
evidence which they hope will enable them
to establish their clients title to some valu-
able Iaads in Minnesota. The land was
originally owned by the lndiana-of course
and there seems to be some flaw In the pre-
titles which would give the descendants
ne the former owners a claim. It s ems that
Mrs. Jno. Cassidy is iii the line Of descent,
and IN ease the claim Is made good, will pro-
ahsbiy fall heir 10 4 gopdly amount. So mote
