p Professor Carhart principal Of the

last week. In his talk to the class in
general history on the 'Aim and pur-
pose of history he said that civil

test in Sanborn.
Miss Emma Carlson of the class of
1904, who has had charge OF the prim-
ary work in the schools of Willow
City since graduation, visited the
Normal last Thursday. .
On Wednesday morning Professor
Craig spoke on the subject Of nature
study in North Dakota. The discourse
brot to the minds Of the students the
fact that the prairies of North Dakota
are far from uninteresting and dres ry
to those who observe the variety and
adaptation of animal and vegetable
life-how, in this comparatively dry
climate, many animals such as the
gopher, live underground where the
moisture is and where the deep and
numerous roots abound, while in moist
countries the animals live in trees;
and how our plants and hardy trees
send deep roots far down into the soil,
while tropical plants have small roots
and luxuriant foliage above ground. e..
Normal students have received cir
culars issued by the simplified spelling
board, containing a list of common
words spelled in two or more ways,
the simpler form being recommended.
This board. whose office is in New
York City. is not trying to make a
sudden reform in spelling, altho the
anomalies and perversities of English
spelling are obvious. The three hun
dred words in the circular comprise a

EXPLAINS ALCOHOL BILL
eongrsssmsn lRaayshaIl says DlstilIsriss
may be Established In No. Oak.

Congressman tRaarphail says pistilIsrios
may be Established in No. Oak.
; In. a Washington special to the
Journal, w. w. Germane quotes Con,
g1essinan Marshall as follows:.
s'Distilleries could be established at
numerous points in Minnesota, North
and South Dakota, which would easily
compete with the big distilleries in
Illinois and Indiana, as well as the
molasses distilleries of the far east and
the gulf coast, as the country distillery
would be near the raw material and
the consumers. In the west, stock
cattle and hogs are at hand to con.
sumo the slops and mash from the
stills.
'sThis much is established clearly
the law is framed in the interest of the
farmer, and it is left to the ingenuity
of the people to solve the great problem
of furnishing an inexhaustable supply
of matreial to light our homes. do our
cooking. run our stationary enignes.
much Of our farming machinery, our
motor wagons. trucks and automo.
biles and eventually warm onr
houses.
"Whether alcohol can be made in
small quantities locally is more or less
problelnatical, and remains to be dem.
onstrated. There are more than 5000
farm distilleries in Germany making
denatured alcohol for fuel, light and
heat It the price is high alcohol
can be made locally and great profit
will accrue. if the price is low, the
benefit will come to our people as con-
sumers, while possibly it may work
benefit TO our farmers both coming
and going. A great deal will depend
upon the regulations governing the
amount Of denaturiizpg materials, az
this directly affects the cost.
.'The greatest benefit to the pro-
ducers will be as price regulator.
There will be no more burning Of corn
in Kansas and no mole potatoes in
vast quantities allowed to rot in the
ground. When raw material is
cheap it can be made into alcohol and
stored. A uniform price, giving
living profits each year to our farmers
is much to be desired, and is much
safer proposition than high price
this year and q losing price next
year. - a I. ss

The Northern Pacific Railway COM
pany is now concentrating all its avail
able forces east of the mountains In
the making of repairs in the Yakima
valley to prevent a coal famine. The
construction crews of both the Idaho
and Rocky Mountain divisions are at
work between Toppenish and Gle
Elum. one gang is working north
ward from Ellensburg and the other
northward from Toppenish. The OBJ
ject of this is to reach the coal fields
at Gle Elum and Roslyn.
The supply between here and Spo-
kane is about exhausted and there Is
very little left to operate the construc-
ton engines with. No freight trains
will be moved till the coal supply has
been replenished. The coal at Top
penish is almost gone and there is but
one car here belonging to the COM
pany. This is held in reserve for the
local engines.-Yakima Republic.

one Man Killed. Another Wounded.

william c. simmons. 55 years old,
is in the Ada county jail charged with
murder. as result OF a shooting af-
fray i'm Highland valley about IL
miles east of Boise. yesterday about
noon. August Stanke was killed and
Louis Jauering. his brother-in-law,
was seriously wounded by Simmons
during n neighborhood quarrel.
A feud has existed between Sim
mons and Jauering for a year or more.
Several causes are assigned for the
bad feeling, one of them being, ac-
cording to Jauering's statement, Sim
mons interference with his family az
fairs. The two men engaged In n
bloody fight some months ago and II
is said that simmons received the
worst of the encounter, barely escap-
ing with his life.
As to who was the aggressor In the
encounter stories differ. According to
the statement of Jauering, simmons
opened fire with his 44-caliber VIM
chester on Stanke. The latter carried
n 3S-caliher automatic revolver ana
he returned the fire. but failed TO NIT
simmons. After several shots had
been exchanged Stanke was hit and
dropped. simmons then turned MS
gun on Jauering, who was not armed.
Jauering says that he begged SIM
mons for mercy, but seeing that IS
was of no avail he retreated, but was
brought down by shot in the back
simmons story of the affair Is very
different He says that he started out
Sunday morning for hunt ana Una.
he came onto Stanke, Jauering ana
the Perceys. while they were quarrel
ing. He says that he saw stanke
draw his gun to shoot Walter Percy
So he fired at stanke, wounding him
with the first shot. Then he says
that Jauering started toward him'
making threats and he fired twice
each time hitting Jauering'-Bolse
