BAD BULL DOGS BEWARE:~

A farmer-publishes the for
lowing in the Wimbledon News:
As number of Bull dogs invade
the territory tributary to Wimbledon,
I have decided to kill every one that:
comes on my premises. A bunchs
of these dogs chased and killed a.
9 months old calf for me last Sun
day, Nov. 2sth, and having tasted
blood once they are liable to kill
more stock for somebody. After
these blood-thirsty devils get hold Of.
something there is nothing that will
disengage them short of killing thema
A person even is not safe If he en-
counters a bunch of them on the
road to town. The dog owners who
noticed blood on the neck and head
of their dogs last Sunday should kill
them or else I will will If they should
come on my premises. The gun is
loaded and ready for them.-Lorenz

SASKAKAWEA STAMPS
Money to be Used to Pay for Deficit
of Statue of Famous Indian
Heroine.

A new Christmas stamp is making:
its appearance on the Christmas mar
ket, the sasakawea stamp. The fol-
lowing statement of the cause has
been sent out by Mrs. Amidon, chair
man Of the committee in charge of
raising funds for the statue:
The women of the state decided at
the Valley City federation meeting to-.
raise this year the last thousand dol
lars for the Sakakawea statue. They
have named next October as the time;
for unveiling the statue on the capi-:
tol grounds at Bismarck. Mr.. Crun-e
ellie, the sculptor, has promised to-
be present. Special invitations will
be sent to the contributors, the whole
state will be melted, and North Da-~
kota will set apart the day to COM
memorate the pioneer whose spirit:
the statue typifies.
To meet the deficit, it was voted at.
Valley City to sell Christmas stamp
throughout the state. 1t is to be UNI
derstood by the public that there iss
no rivalry in this sale of stamps for.
different causes. The group OF wo--
men who are working for this Christ.
mas sale are believers both in health
and patriotism and will use both the
stamps to seal their gifts and letters
Christmas is time for giving to-.
more than one cause. There has
been a steady pressure since early
October to secure this stamp, owing,
to the seasonal rush of work at the.
lithograph houses. It is a beautiful /:
design, red, green and gold, and hav
ing our state emblems, the wheat :
'sheaf. 1t will be put up for sale In:
IS cent booklets, and in sheets per-
forated and gummed like postage
stamps. The booklets will sell for,
rs cents; the stamps in sheets for a
penny each.
These stamps may be secured on
and after December 10 from the fol-
lowing members. Of the sakakawea~

ALIEN FISHERY
BILL DEFERRED

Without any contest the alien fish
ermen's prohibiting bill was this
morning deferred on third reading in
the Senate until the 18th inst. There
was just enough discussion to bring
out the fact that the measure is in
tended to enforce locally the Federal
law destrict1ng to citizens of the Unit
ed States the right to fish within a
marine league of the shore. This right
of the people of a country to the
fisheries within such a boundary has
been the cause of much diplomatic
adjustment between the United States
and Great Britain with relation to the
Canadian and Newfoundland fisheries.
The exclusion of American fishermen
from those fisheries, excepting when
admitted under special treaty for GER
tain periods, is however matter OF
preventing an American domestic in
dustry from being conducted within
the foreign territory in question. In
the case of the Hawaiian fisheries,
the fish are marketed in Hawaii. Whe-
ther the treaty rights Of aliens to do
business in the United States on an
equality with citizens would operate
to exempt the alien fishermen plying
their trade wholly for the local mar
ket from the exclusion law in ques-
ton may be the problem in regard to
The pending local measure if it passes
the Legislature. In that event it would
be decided in Washington.
Another fishing bill, that Of the 30 a
boat license fee, which looked at first
like another slap at alien fishermen,
was shown this morning to be only
an amendment to the existing law IN
tended to exempt those who tish Tor
snort or for their own families from
Dayment of the tax. AS it seemed
TO be ambiguous to some members
this bill also was laid on the season
ing board.
For the rest the Senate put through
large amount Of business this morn
ing, sending immense RATS OF bllls
to the Governor and the House res
pectively and advancing a large num-
Der other stages.

The first quarter of the session re-

chievous persons who sprinkle tacks,

father of the latter bill and is accused
of contemplating the purchase of an
automobile.
Castro this morning introduced a
bill relating to public expenditures
and makes it unlawful for anything in
the way of public work involving $500
or over to be given out by contract

time of public peril, calamity or great
