Bismarck, N. D., Oct. 13.-The North
Dakota congressional delegation seems
TO be having difficulty in solving the
problem of appointing successors to
the incumbents of the United States
landoffice at this point namely Regis
ter M. III. Jewell and Receiver John
Satterlund, both Of whom have served
the term of which they were appointed
but who continue in office because Of
the failure Of the delegation to get
together
There are three active candidates
for the two positions, r. N. Stevens
of Burleigh county; o. Olson and
Charles Staley of Mclean county. The
position Of register, it is understood.
will go to Mr.. Stevens If Senator Nc
Cumtber's view prevails, but up to
date he has been upable to get Sen
ator Johnson's agreement to the ap-
pointment, and the probabilities are
he will be unable to do so.
The fact that Mclean county has
had a man in the office ever since its
establishment has led some politicians
to believe that Morton county, or one
OF the other counties in the district. is
entitled to recognition, and this NAV
result in bringing other candidates
into the field

Valley City, N. D., Oct. 13.-Post-
Office inspectors who have been In
the city looking over conditions, warn
ed Mayor CoweH and Postmaster
Pray today that unless more side
walks were built in Valley City, the
free delivery of mail would be sus-
pended. One Of the regulations Of the
department is that there shall be no
free delivery except where there are
walks. Many streets in the city, not
ably in the northeastern and northern
parts Of the city, are without connect
ing walks. This must be remedied or
the delivery will go.
The inspector took the carrier off
Seventh avenue because of lack OF
walks and transferred him to Eighth
avenue where there are continuous
walks connecting with the city. In the
future Seventh avenue will be served
with one mail a day by the rural car
rier.
Any report on conditions has been
suspended, pending action by Mayor
Cowell and the city council.

completely INSTRUCTED by freight cars
standing on the side tracks and the
three elevators. 1t was cold day.
He was dressed quite warmly. and
had his cap pulled down about the
edges Of his ears. He had a lumber
wagon with a double box and was
driving quite rapidly. The ground
was frozen and the wagon made con-
siderable noise. When he was about

five men BREAK
JAIL At MINOT
GEO. TIERNEY, HELD FOR FoRG-
cry, ASSISTED BY OTHER
PRISONERS, SAW BARS.

Minot, N, D., Oct. 10 With two
small steel saws smuggled to them
from some friends on the outside,
George Tierney, arrested for forgery.
Bill Casey Pat Kelly, ole Johnson and
c. Peterson, sawed their way to free
dom last night and caught an east.
bound train.
Their escape was not discovered by
the officers until when the morning
roll was called, which revealed their
absence from the cell room. An in
vestigation showed that the extreme
west window in the Jail had been tam
pered with, the bar being sawed
through and the other two bent SO
as to admit Of their exit.
Four other prisoners who were also
confined In the jail would probably
have escaped had it not been for the
fact that one Of their number got
wedged in the aperture and for three
hours could not move either In or out.
The men took the morning 500 for
the east and were seen around the
station by the officers who did not rec
ognize them until too late.
Tterney, 1t Is claimed, was the ring
leader Of the bunch, furnishing the
brains for the plan. He was being
held on the charge of forging the
name of a Minot woman to a check Of
a large denomination. The officials
have been keeping the matter quiet
and settlement would undoubtedly
have been effected as Mr.. Tierney's
brother arrived yesterday from Mime
apolis, willing to do all in his power
to save his brother from the dis
grace.
