Stone Claim Frauds

Hettinser Headlight: There has been

months to inspect all stone and timber
claims He has held up for investisa-
'tion all such claims. The man who has

need tear nothing, but there will, be a
day Of reckoning to the man who has
sworn falsely. Such q man as the last

badly lose the claim, the amount he
has paid in, his right to file again, and

Thrice Amputated

A r. Arowsmith of Mott. who was
so badly injured in hunting accident
in the Bad Lands several weeks ago that
it was necessary to amputate his right
foot, has been having a serious time of
it and during the past week two more
operations have been necessary and
his condition is far from satisfactory.
Ten days ago the first operation was
held and his leg was removed a short
distance below the knee. Last week
complications arose whereby it was
necessary to remove another portion of
the leg, cutting it off at the knee. 1t
was hoped that this was all that was
necessary but this week a third ampu-
tation was necessary. this time above
the knee His condition is serious,
especially if more operations are neces-
sary to save his life.

WILL NOT COME
Rev. Richard Cox Rcconsiders
Acceptance of Pastorate of St.
Johns Episcopal Church.
Other Arrange ments.

Considerable surprise was manifested
this week when letter was received
by Postmaster N. C. Lawrence from Rev.
Richard Cox of Crookston. Minn.. who
was last week appointed to the rector
ship of St. Johns Episcopal parish of
this city by Bishop Mann, stating that
he would be unable to accept the call,
owing to the pressure brought to bear
upon him by his present parishioners.
In view of the fact that Mr.. Cox had
accepted the call last week. after having
it under consideration for some time,
and had made all arrangements to move
his family here this week and take up
his active duties in his new field on
next Sunday, even to arranging the SER
vices and announcing his subjects for
the day, his action is disappointing
1t is presumed that in order to keep him
there the people of the Crookston church
offered him bigger salary than he
would receive here, which prompted him
to make the sudden change in his plans.
The members of this parish feel some-
what disappointed over the turn of
affairs but it is expected that another
call will be made in a few days so
that there will soon be a pastor here.
The bishop has not yet communicated
with the local committee as to his
opinion of Mr.. Cox's reconsideration but
it is expected that he will announce
another appointment very soon. However,
there will be no services at the church
next Sunday.

BIG LAND DEAL
Township Owned by the Owens
Land Company in Dunn Coun-
ty' Changes Hands for the
Sum of 100000

During the past week the township of
land in Dunn county belonging to the
Owens Land & Live Stock Co., was sold
to the Rockford Land Co. of Rockford,
ILL.,, for the handsome sum of nearly
500, 600. This big tract of land is
watered by Knife river in the north and
Spring creek in the south, and is looked
upon as one of the best agricultural dis
tricts in the western part of the state.
1t was selected many years ago by the
Owens company because of its fertility
and numerous streams: w. p. Owens
has been the local manager all this
time, raising cattle and grain. and
waiting for the great development of
the country which he foresaw was bound
to come. '~
Manning, the seat of government, is
within the Owens township and the great
highway from Dickinson to the county
seat also passes through the western
portion Of the land. ~ r.
W. w. Stackhouse, president of the
Rockford Land Co., was in Dickinson
this week and stated that it would be the
purpose of his company to retail the
11.52o acres just purchased to Illinois
people the coming season. The fact
that, the latest Northern Pacific railroad
survey passes diagonally throuh the land
makes it doubly attractive to prospective
land buyers.

Mr. COvey had decided not to accom-

open the door, but she refused. Finally

Make Your Milk Dishes
With Whole Milk.

You don't get the whole milk when
you buy from the milkman. The reason
is $:
Milk that stands awhile separates.
The butter fat rises and the solids fall.
So you get all the butter fat only when
served from the top of the can
Thus you are surprised, when you first
cook with Van Camps, at the delicious
flavor it gives to a milk dish. You won
der what we have added-what we have
dOne-to make the milk seem so good.
We have added nothing at all. Van
Camps is simply the whole, rich milk,
just as it comes from the COW. You get
all of the butter fat, all of the solids
Y0u never get them all in raw milk.
That flavor belongs to your cooking.
You will get it every time in milk dishes
made with IA Camps
We issue q Cook BOOk--free. 1t tells
how to make all sorts of milk dishes,
and gives the whole cost of each. Ask

Please think what that means.
In Washington, d. c., it was recently

cent of the milk, taken from 400 sam

pigs died of tuberculosis.
That's but one of the risks you take

OMAHA Sept. PLAINLY delighted
with the statement that William H.
Taft would go on a train-end campaign,
". J. Bryan has issued a statement
saying that In this Mr.. Taft had mere
" pursued his usual policy Of initiating
the Democrats. Mr.. Bryan dictated the
following statement on the train on his
way 10 Chicago ano then the East:
''Wen. 1 am getting great deal OF
consolation out of he way the PTesi-
dent and y. Taft aave beep doing.
used TO be called hard names because
I advocated an income tax, and now the
income tax has been lndorsed by the
President and Mr.. Taft. 1 used to be
bitterly denounced becaused 1 favored
railroad regulation. Now, the President
ard Mr.. Taft have brought that reform
int popularity and l am no longer con-
sidered dangerous
Il used to get a good deal Of criticism
because I favored tariff reform, but
now tariff reform has become SO urgent
that Mr.. Taft IS willing 10 have a spe-
cal session called Immediately after
inauguration to act on the subject. II
used To be that when ] talked about
independence for the Filipinos l was
told that the American fag never came
down when il once went up. Now we
have a Republican candidate for Presi-
dent who believes that the Fiiipinos
must ultimately have independence.
Flattery IN Imitation.
But I have reason to rejoice over
the fact that some OF the things I have
done are now viewed in a more favor
able light When I made some phOno-
graph records il order that I might
discuss political questions before more
people the Republican papers ridiculed
me and called 1t undignifedi but Mr..
Taft has lif ed The phonograph to an
emInence by talking into IL himself.
And now ny greatest sin is TO be
made a virtue by imitation. Surely
imitation Is tie sincerest form Of fat
tery. When I went out campaigning
in 1896 and 1890 they said IL was dana-
gOgic to run around over the counl "
vote hunting Now IL is eminent Y
proper since EEr. Taft Is going to do It.
and I hope ne Republican papers will
make due apologies.

scared when made speeches from the
