Grafton, Jan, rs. The coroner's
jury which inquired into the murder
Sunday night Of Annie Engalsrud, the
young waitress at Fairdale. brought in
a verdict Tuesday night against Otto
Weberg, her rejected lover. The
testimony, given by physicians showed
/ that the bullet was from rifle and
that It entered the left lung and heart.
Death was. almost instantaneous.
1 Further evidence brought out, tends
to show that the murder was devil
ishly planned and Sfendishly executed.
Weberg had been working in a butcher
shop for some time, and seemed to be
alright until day or two before the
murder. On Sunday night he entered
the kitchen Of the hotel, carrying with
him a rifle and a rabbit, giving forth
4 the impression that he had just re
turned from a hunting trip. While
waiting in the kitchen he exhibited
the rabbit, when suddenly, finding

A PLEASANT Land
THE MISSOURI SLOPE is THE
IDEAL SECTION OF NORTH
DAKOTA

Dickinson Post: No district in
North Dakota, or in fact, any Of the
northwest states, offer better oppor-
itunities for financial investment than
the Slope section. Those who have
invested largely in past years are still
purchasers, proving by their expendi-
ture that their belief is firm and that
the future offers better returns than
the past. 1t is a fact which can be
youched for by hundreds of eastern
parties who own from q quarter sec
ton to a full section and are receiv-
ing returns that average 81 per acre
year after year. And this amount, it
must be borne in mind, represents
but one-haf Of the net earnings of
the land, the other half going to the
tenant. What better investment can
be asked? Il practical farmers give
their attention to the work the re
turns are certain. Land values, ac-
cording to the best Informed on the
subject, are cheaper today than they
will ever be again. Apparently the
settlers themselves fail to realize what
a fountain of wealth such a quarter
section will become, if it has not al.
ready proved SO. Land here today is
selling as low as $12 per acre, and
good land at that In a few years, a
year or two many predict, this same
land cannot be purchased for twice
I that amount. Agricultural lands in
Minnesota and Wisconsin, which have
not proved as productive, are now
held as high as 800 per acre All
the facilities enjoyed by the farmers
of those states are enjoyed by the
North Dakota agriculturist. With the
completion of the Milwaukee every
farm will be within easy access of the
railway and the haul to market
throughout the southern part of The
Slope will be greatly lessened il
many instances.
