DOLLAR fine in
FEDERAL COURT
PETER TOGAARD FAILED TO
OBEY A GOVERNMENT SUB
+ PEANAE
WARD COUNTY HOMESTEADER
MAINTAINED THAT HE WAS
UNABLE TO APPEAR.

Fargo, NJ. D., Dec. 19.-- Maintaining
that he was financially unable to
obey summons to appear at the Mi
not land Office when subpe eonaed, Pc
ter Togaard, a Ward county home
5steader, yesterday entered a plea of
guilty to the charge when arraign-
ed before Judge Charles F.. Amidon
in the United States court.
It appeared that Togaard was
wanted to testify in an important
matter ait Minot some time ago. He
was subpeonaed but he failed to put
in an appearance. He was arrested
Thursday by Deputy u. S. Marshal
G.. J. Stout and brought to this city.
A fine of ST. was imposed by the
court and the defendant ordered COM
mitted to the Ward county Jail until
the fine is paid. No matter how
small the fine in the federal court,
the punishment for non-payment is
thirty days in Jail and unless Tor
gard is able to produce the cart
wheel demanded it will be up to him
to serve the next month behind bars,

CONTESTS ELECTION
OF WARD GO. SHERIFF
{. J. HoFF ALLEGES THAT oMts-
SION OF SQUARE AT TOP OF
! BALLOT RESULTED IN DEFEAT.

Minot, n. D., Dec. 49, That the
omission Of the party square at the
top OF the big ballots in the recent
election does make a material differ
.ence is the contention OF j. Il. Hoff,
Democratic candidate for sheriff,
who today started a contest against
the election of s. A. Sorenson, the vic
torious Republican candidate. Mr..
Hoff was defeated by about 300 votes.
In his complaint he alleges that the
election judges and inspectors at var
ious precincts did not act in accor-
dance with the law in counting the
ballots. That where a cross had been
placed after the name of the the Re
publican electors it was taken as a
vote for the entire Republican ticket
and was SO counted. Mr.. Hoff claims
that if this method had not been used
he would have received majority
vote and would have been elected
sheriff OF Ward county. This is with
out doubt but one OF the few con
tests that will result within the thirty
days given for the filling of election
contests and undoubtedly all will be
based on the same omission.

KICKS ON The LACTEAL FLUID

Editor Tribune: To me the ques-
tion of price of milk is Of little conse-
quence as compared to the quality
Ireceive. I believe the milk inspec-
tion ordinance is a good thing If it
effects what I suppose is one OF its
aims, viz: the inspection Of the milk
sold inthe city as well as the inspec-
5tion Of the cows and barns from
which it comes. MY milkman tells
me he does not produce all the milk
he sells, but gathers It up from par
ties who do not sell milk to the gem
eral public and as a result he cannot
guarantee it in any respect. Not
only is there danger to health in
such promiscuous milk but there is
no telling when the cows were milk
ed and; purchasers have no means Of
knowing whether the. milk they buy
is fresh when they get 1t. MY ex-
perience has been that most of the
milk I buy is stale. for in spite Of
all that I can do to preserve 1t, more
than half of it is sour within "a hours
This is particularly the case with
cream, which often turns within a
short time after delivery. Very lit
tie Of the milk we get ever has any
cream on it and believe an analysis
would prove it adulterated. In the
cities milk wagons are stopped on
the street and samples taken for
analysis at almost any old time and
as result the milk sellers are very
careful as to what they sell. once
heceived some milk which had kero-
sene spilled in it and was sold in
that condition knowingly by the milk
man. This was long ago, but the
same man is still doing business and
If he would sell milk that he knew
had kerosene In it then. would he
hesitate at other carelessness now?
I contend that all milk sold should
be inspected for the protection OF GUS
toners SO that we can be assured OF
getting what we pay our money for
good, fresh product.

PIONEER RIVER PILOT
VISITS DICKINSON
CAPT. GRANT MARSH, WHO COM
MANDED .sFAR WEST Gus
TER RELIEF BOAT IN ,76. W

Dickinson. Post: In Captain Gram
Marsh, who arrived in the city We'd
nesday from Miles City and visited
here as the guest OF Mr.. and Mrs. HI.
M. Roberts until Thursday, when he
returned to his home at Bismarck,
Dickinson entertained one Of the
most romantic characters among the
central figures in the most romantic
chapter of the northwest's history.
Capt. Marsh enjoys the distinction
of being the master of the first steam
boat, the Key West, to explore the
Yellowstone river and as If that was
not sufficient honors, three years la
ter, or in '76, commanded the Far
West" the relief snip which carried
soldiers and supplies to the mouth
of the Little Big Horn river and took
back to Fort Lincoln the wounded
from the battlefield on which Custer
and his detachment met their death
at the hands of Sitting Bulls braves.
Capt. Marsh although IL years old,
sixty-one of which were spent in nav
igation on the Mississippi, Missouri,
| and Yellowstone rivers, is still hale
and hearty. He is awaiting the pub
lication of book on the early his
tory of the northwest entitled Grant
Marsh, the Steamboat Captain Of the
Sioux Indian Campaigns. Of which
