ELDERLY GENTLEMAN
WORKS GREAT stunt

Grand Forks, N. d., Sept. 9.-To
prepare the copy, set the type and
print a book of 1856 pages is the feat
that has just been accomplished by
Horace V. Arnold of I.arimore. The
book has to do with the history of
Larimore and there is not an event
since the construction of the first
shack on which is now the city's site
that is not told Of in the publica-
tiOn
Not only did he write the book, set
the type, and print it. but he has also
bound the book and they have been
in great demand in LarimOre since
they were put out. Modern printing
methods were not at the disposal OF
Mr.. Arnold either, but the work had
to be done in the good old fashioned
way. type being hand set while the
printing was done on an old hand
press that seemingly has long since
passed the period of usefulness.
Mr. Arnold is about 70 years of age
and is always busy and for the last
two years the compilation and print
ing Of this book has been his one OBJ
jrct. 1t has taken much of his time
but he has devoted himself to it in a
steady manner and has finally been
successful. The work was done at
his home and his equipment is very
unpretentious.

GR|GSbY Land
DEAL CLOSED
Farmers Have at Last
Obtained Clear Title to
Lands
Cases Have Been Fought in
Courts Of State For
Years

Fargo, N. D., Sept. 9.-Judge Ami
don of the federal court decided
against Colonel Melvin Grigsby of
Sioux Falls, S. D., in the civil land
case brought before him on Tuesday
involving the title Of several vast
tracts of land in North Dakota pur-
chased by farmers of this state more
than decade ago. The court estab.
lished the title Of the purchasers from
the assignees to the land and declar.
ed the claim Of Grigsby null and void.
The case grew out of the failure
OF Frederick c. Day. once president
of the defunct Bank OF Milwaukee in
1898. Then Day gave about 25,OOO
acres Of land in Minnesota, North and
South Dakota as security TO stockhold-
ers of the banking corporation The
titles of these lands were absolute in
form and intended as mortgages. In
due time Day and the bank failed and
the assignees in insolvency sold the
lands to farmers in the vicinity Of
their location.
Under the law of the supreme court
of North Dakota deeds to assignees
in Wisconsin for lands in North Da-
kota were void. The transfers were
made between 1898 and 1900 when
the lands were of little value. They
are now very valuable
Grigsby obtained deeds from Day
for 100 quarter sections. In the ac-
ton just brought he sought to have
the deed from Day to the Plankinton
bank declared mortgage, which it
was in fact, and the assignee's deed
declared void This, if upheld, de,
prived the farmers OF their land after
it had become of great value and
robbed them of their years of toll and
development.
While the assignees OF the bank
were disposing Of the lands, Day stood
by and made no claim and aided the
assignees in selling them, stating that
he had no claim to them. The court
held that Day was now stopped, by
his conduct at that time, and that
Grigsby stood in no better position
than Day.
Judge AmidOn directed a decree to
be entered establishing the title OF
the purchasers from the assignees to
the land and declaring the claim of
Grigsby null and void. There are
thirty-two quarter sections in North
Dakota covered by similar deeds and
large number of tracts in South
Dakota and Minnesota.

One day this summer he noticed a

Washington, D. c., Sept. 9.-(Spec'
ial.)-For more than year the treas
ury department has contemplated a
decentralization of the designs for
United States notes and gold and Sill
YER certificates and the reduction In
the size of paper currency. No less
than nineteen miscellaneous portrait
and historic designs appear upon the
issues now current. These serve nc
useful purpose in Identifying the de-
nomination of notes with the designs
they bear, nor have they been selected
according to any scheme or historical
balance. AS an example OF existing
confusion, the present dollar silver
certificate bears the portraits of both
Lincoln and Grant. The plan is to
reduce these nineteen miscellaneous
designs to nine, selecting the portraits
with some reference to the Importance
and position of their subjects in Amer
lean history and using the same port
raft on one denomination throughout.
The faces would be placed in the
center Of the note and would enable
the holder to determine at glance
the denomination.
For example, the dollar not, which
is in most common circulation, might
bear the portrait Of Washington, as
the emancipation of the country and
the founder of it's government; the 81
note, that Of another famous Ameri.
can, and so on for all the separate
denominations.
The department might feel warran-
ted in procee ding to change the de-
signs of the notes without awaiting
the suggestions of banking institu-
tions, but a somewhat different pro-
position is presented in the plan to
reduce the size of the notes to 6 by
6 IL inches. The department recog-
nizes that public convenience is more
or less involved in system to which
most of the cash drawers and pocket
books of the country have been adapt
ed, hence it is disposed to welcome
criticisms and suggestions from bank
ers and business men before attempt
ing any radical change.
Under authority of Secretary Mac
Veagh, a special committee OF treas
ury officials has been at work for
months upon the details involved in
the change of designs and the sug-
gested reduction in the size of aper
currency. This committee has can
vassed with equal candor the advan-
tages of and the objections to the
plan. Discussing the details of pop
ular interest involved, Secretary Mac
Veagh makes the following state
ment:
Il am hopeful that the public will
consider favorably, as the treasury
department is inclined to consider
favorably, the economies and other
advantages which would result ulti-
mately from the use of a somewhat
smaller currency. The present size
of paper currency is 3.04 inches wide
by 7.2S inches long, and it has been
suggested that our notes be reduced
to IL inches wide by inches long,
the same size as the Philippine paper
currency, which has proved an unqual.

'M'VEAGH SUGGESTS Change IN THE
SIZE OF NATIONAL PAPER MONEY

| it is not brought into direct cOmpar1-
son with the present note, and when
not scrutinized, would not, to most
people, present a noticeable change.
"On the smaller side, l am inclined
! to think the change would cause lit
tie if any inconvenience and would
quickly be commended by the people.
The smaller notes would be carried
fiat, and, being preserved In that
shape, would not wear from folding.
and would be more readily handled
by cashiers, tellers and clerks. We
have carefully experimental with bank
clerks and tellers in the city Of
I Washington and learn that the smaller
notes do not tend to cramp the hands
! of persons manipulating them, as do
the present notes, and that they are
| just as easily handled and counted as
:, the old notes. The smaller notes
could be more closely packed on the
counters of the banks and, in fact,
banks, as we'll as subtreasuries prob
ably could store Is per cent more Of
! the new than Of the old notes in their
vaults.
1T will not be necessary to change
J the dimensions of cash drawers, tills,
compartments, ETC., which now hold
the present size of money as they will
also hold currency Of the size propos-
, ed. This would not be true, of course,
size of the notes.
The only objection to adopting
smaller notes which seems to ME Of
special Importance is that for some
time two sizes of paper money would
be in use and bank tellers and the
business public would be correspond
ingly Inconvenience / think. how
ever, that this objection could be
, largely if not almost wholly overcome
by preparing in advance enough of the
new notes so that they could be ex
changed for old notes on a fixed date
at all subtreasuries, banks, and other
large financial institutions.
mo special legislation is necessary
to enable the government to reduce
, the size of United States notes and
gold and silver certificates. In order
however, to effect reduction in the
size of national bank currency with
out legislation, and at the same time
continue the present multiplicity of de-
signs, it would be necessary to elm.
nate the 10000 plates now in use and
to engrave as many more. This could
be done, l presume, only by the gov
ernment's assumption Of the expense
of new plates and as each plate costs
SIS, the total cost of the new series
would reach about 100000. 1t would
be quite possible, however. to use
| the same uniform engraved plates for
all bank notes, and to print later by
separate process the name of the in
dividual bank upon the notes which
that bank was to ISSUE
Another plan would be to secure
legislative authority for uniform
circulating note, which would do away
with the necessity of the special
notes for individual banks. Only 200
of 300 plates would be needed, and
they would cause the banks no ap-
preciable expense.

The Only Way
Many Topeka Citizens Have
Discovered 1t.

Just what to do when the kidneys are
affected, is a question that concerns
both young and old. Weak kidneys
neglected in childhood lead to lifelong
suffering. People of advanced years,
with less vitality, suffer doubly. In
youth or age, languor, bachache, urin-
airy irregularity, dizziness and nervous
ness make life a burden.
There is one remedy that acts direct
" on the kidneys and cures these trou-
bles. Doan's Kidney Pills owe their
worldwide fame to the fact that they
cure sick kidneys and cure them per-
manently. Follow the example of this
Topeka citizen and you will be con-
WINGED that this is so.
William MuIvihill, 209 Adams Street,
Topeka Kans., says: Il believe that
my advanced age was the direct cause
of my kidney complaint. 1 suffered
from dull, dragging pains across the
small of my back, often being SO bad

kidney secretions contained sediment
and were so frequently in passage as
to annoy me greatly. My general
health became run down and 1 was in
misery most of the time. Reading

BETS ON KANSAS WHEAT.
Chicago Grain Man Places Crop at
10000. 900 Bushels

Chicago, March 14.-Captain ]. NJ
Phillips, Chicago grain broker, is not
believer in signs. From all the in
dications of the ground hog, prairie
wolf and the oldest inhabitants rheu-
matism Kansas is due to have the
enormous yield of lis, 100000 in 1910.
Such, were-thef signs from the acreage
and general conditions in December,
but the captain has $4,000 that spoke
to the negative yesterday, with all tn
voice of good money. Captain Phillips
wagered that the sunfiower common
wealth will not be able to coax more
than 100000 bushels of wheat out
of it's prairie soil this year in spite of
the representation and the fact that
the yield last year was S7,203,000 bush
els. One person to differ with him
was John Barrett, another board of
trade man, who took the stand that
the Kansas yield this year will exceed
that of 1909, while a st. Louis man
handed over $1,000 to strengthen his
assertion that the state would do bet
ter than 100000.
