SKIPPED IN The night
Man Convicted of Maintaining Com
mon Nuisance Gives Sheriff the
Slip.

Napoleon Homestead: About 1880
Friday evening Julius Theurer, convict
ed last week for maintaining a COM
mon nuisance at Lehr and sentenced
to a term of five months in the comfy
jail and to pay fine of $500 and 500
as costs, stole a march on Deputy
Sheriff Doering and departed without
leaving his forwarding address.
The deputy brought Theurer along
with three other prisoners from the Jail
to the barber shop to have their hirsute
adornment removed. Upon returning
to the Jail Theurer excused himself for
a few minutes in which to go outside
and as yet ha3n't come back AS the
night was very dark perhaps he became
frightened by a spook or something or
was spirited away by hobgobblin.
Sheriff Schmidt went south the fol-
lowing morning on a search for his
whereabouts with the hopes that he
might overpower the spook and rescue
Mr.. Theurer, but after journeying as
far as Eureka and finding no trace of
him he returned home on Tuesday.
The sheriff is offering a reward of
$50 for Thstir RS capture.
| Up to the hour of this issue no It'd
ings of Theurer's whereabouts have
been ascertained.

THINKS BURKE
MADE A fIzZLE
MIMIC JOURNAL BELIEVES THE
GOVERNOR HAD TO "GET
FROM UNDER" SOME
WAY.

Mimic Journal: Governor Burke
has appointed Fountain L. Thompson OF
Cando to be United States senator
to fill the place made vacant by the
death of Sen. M. NJ Johnson. The
act was performed yesterday afternoon
and to say II was a surprise to all, re-
publicans as we'll as democrats, is
putting it mild.
The Journal mas nothing to say
against Senator Thompson, for it
knows nothing about him one way or
the other. 1t now learns from the
dispatches that he is a well-to- do
self made man Of Bottineau county
and warm personal friend Of the
Governors, which fact probably in
fiuenced him in making the appoint
merlt..
Considered in the light of party poll
icy, subservience to the desires of
constituency, and fitness and deserved
ness of recipient, this to an outsider
appears to be decided flzzle as an
important official act But then the
Governor waited calmly for the pileup
and then had to get from under some
how. Anyway, 1t is his funeral. SEN
ator Thompson is reported to be man
Of ample means, with leisure at his
disposal, and can afford to be
United States senator f1gurehead for
year or two.

DIVORCE SCANDAL

Wife of Prominent Farmer Near Graf
ton Asks for Separation
From Her Husband.

Grafton Republican,: Mrs. Knut
Johnson, wife Of one of the most prom
inent farmers in Golden Valley, Is ask
ing for absolute separation from her
husband, naming as grounds cruel and
inhuman treatment and also alleging
that Mr.. Johnson has had unlawful
relations With several women.
The family is residing about nine
miles west OF Park river on the hus-
bands farm, which consists of one of
the finest three quarters In the country
They are prominent and this charge
will surely come as shock to his
many friends out there and in this Sec
ton of the state, where he is well
known. 1t is understood that Mrs
Johnson asks for the custody of the
children-ten or eleven in number
and an equal division of the property,
An order restraining Mr.. Johnson from
disposing of any part of the property
was signed by Judge Kneeshaw.

JAIL BREAKER IS CAUGHT
Sheriff Nabs Prisoner Just AS He
Started Across Line Into
Minnesota.

Grafton Republican: John c. John
son, the blind pigger from Adams,
found serving time in the county Jail
irksome. He longed for freedom and
an occasional swallow of booze. Only
a few bars were between him and the
things he coveted. He and two other
prisoners had, during the absence OF
the officers, been working to loosen
the bars of one of the south windows.
Wednesday night Johnson succeeded
in breaking out the bars and escaped.
His absence was discovered early
Thursday morning Sheriff Arnot,
whom the criminals OF this county
are now inclined to believe has the
scent Of bloodhound, readily ascer-
tanned the direction the fugitive had
taken and was soon tracing him.
Johnson was seen by farmers in
Walshville during the day. When eve
ming came he, true to the sheriff
conjecture, started to cross the bridge
at Olso. His object was to reach
Olso and eventually Bemidji. He had
but fairly started when to his sur
prise he stood face to face with
Sheriff Arnot who greeted him with
II guess we wont go any farther" in
a tone that was both knocking and
stern. He was instantly taken back
to Grafton and is now safely lodged
in a cell with ample time to reflect
upon his unsuccessful flight from
justice.

GOOD FOR NORTH DAKOTA.
Decrease in Beef Production Benefit
To This State.

Dickinson Press: The decrease in
the production OF beef in the United
States means a great deal to the farm
ers of western North Dakota,
where lands are still at comparative
ly low figure. Our population is in
creasing rapidly and yearly making a
greater demand for farm lands, fore
ing back the great free stock grazing
industry of the past, which in turn
necessarily decreases the beef supply
and causes bigger prices for meat.
1t will only be. a few years before
the Bad Lands along the Little
Missouri river will all be taken by
men who will find it profitable to care
for a small herd Of we'll bred cattle.
The rough land will afford good graz
ing and the little valleys will produce
the necessary winter forage. People
will learn to shelter stock more and
feed a little during the cold stormy
weather.
These prices for beef will also act IS
an incentive for the farmer to raise a
few more cattle and horses and in
years when the crops are not as
abundant as this season, he will have
a few high priced cattle, horse or
two to market which will repBnish the
bank account and give all the ready
cash needed for current expenses I'M
til another crop time.
These conditions will ultimately
make North Dakota an immensely rich
country.
The fertile soil is here, and there is
no more to be had when the few re-
naming acres are taken, supply and
demand will do the rest.
The raising of grain is already at
tractive on account of the good prices.
and 1t looks as though this country
would soon be importing instead of ex-
porting bread stuffs.
There is no country that can pro-
duce better wheat and finer live stock
than this very land that is now either
open for homesteads or held at COM
paratively low prices, 49,

ALLEaEn RRlRERY.
Ward County Attorney Said To De In
Trouble.

Ward County Attorney said To Be In
Trouble.
Bismarck, N. D.. Nov. ia report
gained some circulation in the city
Friday Afternoon that Attorney Murphy
Of Kenmare IS up against a charge OF
bribery. Inquiry at the Office Of the
attorney general brought out the fact
that no formal complaint had been
made there but letter had been re-
ceived calling attention to the allega-
tions. The story is that Murphy was
assistant states attorney in Ward
county when there were some liquor
cases to be tried and 1t is alleged that
overtures were made to the defendants
stating that If a crtain amour o.
money was forthcoming the attorney
would resign and the case would be
dropped. The alleged proceedings in
the bribery case are said to be a re-
suit of the resignation of Murphy
from Office. The matter has not come
up in the local courts in Ward county
and therefore will not be in the juris-
diction OF the attorney generals office
at the present time.

FIRE DAMAGING.

Blaze At Edinburg Does a Damage of
$500.
Edinburg, N. D., Nov. ia fire
which started from some unknown
cause in H. Herman's barn caused a
loss of about $4,000 and for a time
threatened neighboring residences.
When the fire was discovered it had
gained sufficient Roadway to preclude
all possibility of saving the barn and
upon the arrival of the fire depart
ment attention was directed solely to
prevent the fire spreading. The barn
of p. J. Skiold, on the west soon
caught fire, however, as did also the
barn Of VIM. Brumwell across the
alley. 1t also reached the barn Of
J. E. Peterson, and these four build
ings were totally destroyed with en-
tire contents, save the live stock con-
tanned in the barns of Messrs. Skiold,
Brumwell and Peterson. Mr.. Her
mann lost a team of horses, two cows
and a calf, besides harness, several
cords Of wood, nay feed and lot of
articles Of value which had been
stored away. Each of the losers car
ried some insurance but not sufficient
to cover the loss.

ing interest was the continual patron
izing OF creameries during the past
harvest season. 1t was expected there
would be a big falling off, but sucn
was not the case, the farmers evident
~ having learned to appreciate the

"The general interest in dairying is

eminent and an assistant dairyman
for this state has been appointed. The
legislature last winter provided for an
assistant dairy inspector, and a bill
for an appropriation Of $4,000 to build
and equip dairy station at the ag-

BOOST FOR NEHEMIAH

Minot Democrat: 1t may be alright
to elect democratic governors in re-
publican states but the fact that North
Dakota today has a democrat in the
executive chair is not only embarrass-
ing to the party but calamity to the
state-from a political standpoint. No
republican who voted for John Burke
dreamed that he would be called upon
to appoint a United States senator
but the unexpected has happened A
democrat in the United States senate
will be about as useful as a watch
case without works. The lesson Is one
That should be heeded-and If Stalwart
and Insurgent leaders are honest in
their politics they will unite on a man
to be nominated by the next republican
primaries who nave not been identi-
fed with either faction. A man can
be found who has the honesty, ability
and staminy-and VINO will be credit
to the state and the party. The Demo-
crat will at all times put men before
party and in looking over the field
and sizing up the several gentlemen
who have been mentioned as posi-
bilities we have reached the conclu-
sion that Ward county has better tim
Der than has yet been named. Judge
Nehemiah Davis is a conservative
man, loyal republican and a man of
brains, probity and character. He is
clean man and is well and favorably
known throughout the state and coun-
ty. II Judge Davis could be induced
to make the race for governor he would
have the solid backing of his home
county-and Ward seems to be the
pivot that makes and unmakes govern
ors.

PINNED BENEATH AUTO
Victim of Auto Accident Had Narrow
Escape From Cremation
Two Injured.

Eagerly Express: Last Saturday
evening c. ]. Sturgeon and DR. Barbour
were mixed UP in an automobile acct
dent that might have proved fatal TO
both. Just as they were coming into
town on the south road, and shortly
after they had passed the cemetery,
over once and a half. Mr.. Sturgeon was
thrown to one side of the road while
Doctor Barbour was caught in the
steering wheel and pinned under the
car. The doctor saw the lamp ignite
and made an almost superhuman en-
deavor to get from under the car, and
succeeded, but came out of the accident
with an injured back. He Immediately
began to look around for Mr.. Stur-
geon and found him lying unconscious
in the grass He remained in that con-
dition for about ten minutes. The doc
tor walked to get assistance, and Mr..
Sturgeon was taken to the hospital
where he has been ever since the acct
dent. His back was injured by the
fall, and the shock to his nervous sys-
tenn was so great, that the doctors
deemed 1t advisable for him to re-
main in the hospital for some time.
DR.. Barbour stated that when he saw
the lamp burning that he thought the
car would catch fire and that he would
be cremated before assistance would
pass that way. Just how the accident
happened Is hard to say, but 1t Is sup
posed that the car started off the grade
and in an endeavor to turn 1t back,
it struck d rut and turned over The

N. D. COUPLE GET
3 YEARS IN PEN
PLEAD GUILTY TO BIGAMY
CHARGE IN MINI. COURT
NEIGH5oRs THREATENED
LYNCHING.

Buffalo Express: George Lamphere
and Mrs. Ira Hav have each
drawn three years in the penitentiary
for getting married before the woman
obtained a divorce from Hay. Lam
phere was employed with A. Benson
threshing rig last year, and Hay work.
ed for r. B. Kimbell and others in
the vicinity, this year. Hay and his
wife lived at Pernam, MINI. They
have one son about 16 years old.
About three years ago they moved to
Becker county and bought a farm.
About a year ago Hay had a young
widower named George Lamphere
helping him on a farm and he appears
to have become infatuated with Mrs.
Hay. The pair made an attempt to
have Hay sent to the insane asylum,
but the attempt proved futile. Matters
finally became so disagreeable that the
family broke up housekeeping, and
sold the farm and Hay came to Buff
falo. AS soon as the husband was
out Of the way, Mrs. Hay and Lam
phere were married, without the form
ality Of securing divorce on the part
of the woman. There were threats of
lynching them and tar and feathers
for the pair in that neighborhood at
the time, but cooler heads prevailed.
Complaint was made to County At
torney Schroeder and he had the guilty
pair arrested. When taken into court
the evidence was 80 strong against
them that they had no alternative
but to plead guilty, and were SEN
fenced by Judge Baxter at Detroit,
Mimi, to serve three years in the Still
water pentitentiary. During the next
three years they will have ample time
to ponder on the old adage "the way
of the transgressor is hard"

INDIANS GET MONEY

Rolla Star: A little diff1culty was
encountered a Belcourt Monday when
the payment OF $129,400 to the Turtle
Mountain Indian began. AS the pay
ments are now limited to the heads of
families, the money for the minor chill
dren being held and placed at interest
for them until they become OF age, the
parents refused to accept the money
coming to them, insisting upon the
childrens share too. Indian Agent Zie-
bach then wired to Washington and
received instructions to offer payment
to heads of families only, as the terms
could not be changed. On Tuesday
payments were resumed, most of the
people offering no objection On We'd
nesday further instructions were re-
ceived from Washington to pay the
children. This will probably double the
amount Of money to be disbursed, the
amount to be paid to the heads of fam
lilies being $129, 400. Payments are
made through the First National Bank
of Rolla, George w. Pow acting as the
teller.
