HEIR TO MICHIGAN
s.. ESTATE LIVED HERE
GIDEON TELFAR WANTED BY A
PORT HURON Attorney
HAS MONEY COMING,
Letter to County Treasurer kisotisky
Asks for Information Regarding
Former Resident of the County.

The county treasurer Of Burleigh
county is in receipt of letter from
a firm of attorneys at Port Huron,
Mich, asking for particulars regard
ing the whereabouts Of one Gideon
Telfar, at one time resident of this
county.
The Tribune has made inquiries re-
garding the man in question and it
seems that he came to Burleigh coun-
ty in 1879 and took up a claim in what
ts now the southern tier of townships
and as he was the first party to take
up claim there the township was
named fer him and is still known as
Telfar township. Mr.. Telfar was al
so engaged in the blacksmith business
and in 1886, in company with three
other men who had claims near his,
he disposed of his holdings and NOV
ed to the northern part of the state
and as near as can be learned he
settled in the neighborhood of Car
rington. He has moved from there
now and it is thought that he has
gone to Canada.
The letter from Port Huron bore
the Information that Telfar is heir to
an estate. but nothing was said as
to the size of the legacy.
It Is expected that the publicity
that will be given the matter through
the newspapers OF the state will re-
suit in the location of the man If he
Is still among the living. He was we'll
known here and there are number
of the residents of the city who re-
member him perfectly. It was stated
In the letter to Mr.. Kisotisky that it
was thought he was still paying taxes
In this county. but a search of the
records fails to show this to be a
fact.

BETTER QUALITY OF
SEEDS WILL result
NEW LAW WILL GO INTO EF'
Feet AFTER THE FIRST OF
JULY. 1909.
Farmers and 9eedesmen Have Been
Careless Regarding seed-New Law
10 Very Stringent.

Regarding the law passed by the
last legislature to regulate the selling
of seeds, which law goes into effect
July LIST, and therefore is operative
for next year as the first season, Prof.
Bolley, the botanist, of the agricul-
tural college says:
Summarizing the provisions Of the
law it Is seen that:
In it's essentials the law demands
that persons selling or exposing seeds
for sale shall attach a label which
shall show the name of the person,
firm or corporation responsible for the
seed and also the name of the kind
Of seed offered; prohibits the sale OF
seeds containing seeds of quack grass,
sow-thistle, Canada thistle and dod-
der, and demands that varieties shall
be reasonably true to name; esta5-,
fishes seed testing laboratory at
the agricultural college and provides
for the inspection, testing or ANALYSIS
of samples to be sent in by citizers
or collected by inspectors.
1t was recognized that both farm
ers and seedmen were becoming very
lax as to the quality of the seeds DIS
tributed Tor sowing purposes; the
results of which are beginning to
have a very depressing influence upon
cropping interests.
The law does not contemplate inter-
ference with seeds in transit or with
cereals being sold for food. manu.
facture or for cleaning purposes. I'm
cleaned seed If sold for sowing pur-
poses must be labeled and If man
asks for seed for Sowing purposes
he must not be given or shipped un-
cleaned seed without his consent.
This law is so worded that when
once in proper operation we believe
that the seedsmen Of the state and
farmers will soon note its education
al value and appreciate the results.
Steps are now being taken to prop
erly equip seed laboratory, and as
soon as funds are available bulletin
giving the full wording of the law.
together with regulations governing
seed examinations and inspections
will be issued and distributed upon
request.

MILESTONE MONUM'T' + !
DEDICATED SEPT. 3
WILL BE HELD ON 46TH ANNI-
VERSARY OF THE BIG Bat
Tile
Many Noted Speakers viii Be Pres
eht at the ercmonies-Interest In
Event is State Wide.

The dedication of the Whitehouse
Battlefield monument, will be held
Sept. 3, the 46th anniversary of the
fight The last legislature authorized
the sale by the commission Of a GER
tain portion of the 460 acres of land
granted by congress for park, the
proceeds to be used as a special fund
for fencing and improving said tract
and to erect suitabl monument to
commemorate the memory of those
who died on the battlefield of White
stone Hill in Dickey county.
Some we'll known speakers will be
present at the dedication Of the monu-
ment, and several survivors of that
memorable Indian battle are also ex-
pected to be- present. The affair will
attract a state wide interest The
fight is the most noted engagement
ever held in the state and occurred
Sept. 3, 1863, between the soldiers of
the U. s. army and Sioux Indians.
The remains of large number of
the soldiers were buried on the
grounds. The legislature of 1905 au-
thorized the appointment of COM
mission of three citizens Of the state,
whose duty it was to have the battle
field enclosed and improved, the
graves marked and the event prop
erly recorded by monument. The oc-
casion is one of historical interest,
and will fittingly commemorate the
passing of the savage race that, not
many years ago, we're in possession
of the country. The practical extinc-
ton Of the Sioux by the westward pro-
gress Of white civilization was marked
with comparatively few tragedies and
bloody contests in North Dakota, con-
'sidering the nature and the extent of
country from which they were
driven.

STATE AID FURNISHED
FOR BUILDING ARM0RY
TWO AND POSSIBLY FOUR CITIES
WILL BE HELPED DURING
YEAR.
Cities viii 30 Asked TO Contribute
Sites and Citizens to Help With the
Building Fund.

The following letter has been sent
out to Militia officials over the state
from the Office of the adjutant general
of the North Dakota national guard:
1T is proposed to hold a meeting
of the board Of armory supervisors
on May 81, at which time two, and
possibly four organizations will be
designated as recipients Of the armory
aid for 1910 and 1911.
At this meeting it is necessary for
the companies applying to make the
best showing possible as to the aid
they will receive FROM their town
and it will probably be the policy of
the board to designate for assistance
such organizations as make the best
slowing in this respect.
The board believes that the munich
palities interested should at least fur
IRISH site and that the citizens OF
tie town should contribute literally
to the erection of the building.
In Minnesota and many other states
the municipality is compelled by law
to furnish an armory without any aid
whatever from the general fund Of
the state, and the .armories Of Min
neapolis and st. Paul. costing hun

Black Hand Membership

Police Detective Petrosino of New York was sent to Italy to detect the source and extent of the criminal class that is month after month coming to this country. He was assassinated in Palermo while in a defenseless condi- ton. His revolver was found unloaded at the hotel where he was staying. This cowardly murder is arousing action by the police both in Palermo and .nis country.
 "The Black Hand" is a secret organi- zation, but it is known that it has an organized existence in this country as we'll as in Italy. What it's relations are with Mafia and Camorra is also un- known, but all do know that under one name or another desperadoes are banded together in the two countries.
 Beyond all reasonable doubt the New 1OIh utlGCllNO Wdo iOtlOWGd DY dNSGS. sins from this country, or else orders were sent from this country 10 Italian cities to see that he was assassmated He had long combated assassins from the land of his birth, and they hated ana dreaded him. This is why Le was killed. When he was killed he was trying to arrange for the sending of information to this country whenever a member of the Black Hand sailed from Italian ports.
 The tragic manner of his death will be sure to call up the subject of pro- tecting this country from the ingress of criminals. Our immigration laws are now useless in that respect. The Black Hand membership is no doubt increasing in all of our large cities, and mere vigorous methods are nee led if the villains of Italy are to be deprived of an asylum in this country.
