SETTLEMENT OF
news PENDING

1t is understood upon reliable
authority that an amicable adjust
ment of the affairs of The News Print
ing Co, is pending and that settle
ment out of court would be attempted
on the part of the printing plant and
the trustees and mortgages. An i'm
portant conference was held for that
purpose last night at which represent
atives of both sides of the controversy
were present.
1t was announced authoritatively this
noon, however, that while such an ad-
justment was in allegiance, nothing had
been consumated.
At the continued hearing in the dis
trict court this morning of the case
brought yesterday by the Northern
Trust Co., against The. News Printing
Co, the matter was deferred by Judge
Pollock until $3.50 o'clock this after
noon. This second postponement was
made in order to allow the principal
parties of both sides further opportu-
nifty to arrange the settlement which
is in contemplation, which, If effected,
may solves the difficulty out of court
and not necessitate further litigation.

HAND OF DEATH
~ ENDS REVELRY
MRS. {. p. WAGER STRICKEN
WITH APoPLExY WHILE EN-.
PERTAINING FRIENDS AT A
HALLOWEEN PARTY WITH A
GHOST STORY LAST NIGHT.

While taking part in an entertain
ment last evening at the home of Mrs
E. 4. Shaw, where a party was being
held, Mrs. e. p. Wager, aged IS, was
stricken by an attack of apopIexy
which resulted in her death at 5
o'clock this morning Within five min
utes after the attack she lost con-
seriousness and never recovered.
Last evening Mrs. Shaw entertained
the members of the Eskimo club at
a Halloween party. Mrs. Wager was
one of the invited guests of the club
Everyone was gowned in a ghostly
sheet and shortly before o'clock the
party convened. A contest was started
and ghost stories were to be told.
While Mrs. Wager was in the act of
telling a ghost story she was stricken
and cried out for assistance. She fell
to the floor and was lifted to a rest
full position, but in few minutes she
had lost all consciousness. A doctor,
trained nurse and ambulance were inn
mediately called and the unfortunate
lady was removed to her home on
Eleventh street north, where she died
this morning.
Mr.. Wager is travelling for the Gaar-
Scott Machine Co, and is at present
in Canada in the interests of the COM
pany. Efforts on the part of the house
TO locate him had proven fruitless at
late hour this afternoon, A daughter
Mrs. Armstrong of South Bend, Ind
has been heard from and she is ex-
pected to arrive in the city tomorrow.
No arrangements for the funeral have
been made. bur it is thought that the
remains may be taken to Michigan for
burial.
Mrs. Wager had apparently been in
the best of health at the beginning OF
the evening. She has always been
known as a hale and hearty woman
and had every appearance of being a
woman twenty years younger than her
true age. Her many friends were
shocked to learn of her death and she
will be mourned by all who knew her.

If PARTY INTERFERs WITH
PRINCIPLE, CUT OUT PARTY"

I am a candidate for representative
to the Legislature from this. the
Ninth District. If am to be your
Representative must represent you
your beliefs, your principles.
Here are in brief form my prin-
ciples. If they are yours Also can
represent you, and on that basis
solicit your vote Nov. 9Th:
l believe in the Primary Law, ana
will vote to maintain it.
I am in favor of Child Labor
Law, and will vote for Its enact
ment.
| favor the proposed amendment
to the u. s. Constitution permitting
an Income Tax, and will vote for 1t.
/ believe in Prohibition and will
oppose any measure looking toward
weakening it.
/ will vote for an Anti Pass bill
and for Initiative, Referendum and
Recall.
/ will not vote for appropriations
that go beyond the known revenues
and resources of the state. | don't
believe in "overdrafts."
I want the State Fair permanently
located at Fargo-and / expect to
work for that
/ am a Democrat, but / am bound
by no moral nor political ties to
for any man or measure simply be-
cause it wears the Democratic label.
The time for that kind of thing is
past. / know it, and will act on the
knowledge.
want to go to the Legislature as
your representative and independent
of everything but that. If you send
me, shall try to bring honor to the
district instead Of seeking credit for
myself.
You have found that you cannot
secure good government by sticking
to the party label; you have found
that you cannot get good legislation
without sending good citizens to
make your laws; you have discov-
cred that you cannot get the square
deal from the crooked dealer. My
record as citizen is open to you.
If am clean morally and politically,
! am entitled to your vote.
Respectfully yours,
GEO. w. WILKINSON.

Frowned Upon in Becker.

ItoWHSu upon IN becker.
An interesting item of political news
comes up from Detroit and it demon
strates that there is spirit Of fair
play among the leading spirits in
Becker county, which is contra to the
efforts Of a certain political sorehead
who transmits his inspirations from
his Office near the corner of Fourth
and Front streets Moorhead. Reliable
letters state that at a gathering of
about thirty county option leaders at
Detroit day or two ago, the subject
most discussed was the proposed
sticker campaign on behalf of MIR.
Peterson, who was defeated for the
state senate by Mr.. Marden. 1t is
said that the matter was quickly dis
posed of by twenty -four oul OF The
twenty seven voting casting their
votes against the proposed "sticker'
campaign So the order Tor stickers
was countermanded. rr IS salS that
there is practically the same feeling in
Wilkin county. In justice to Mr.. Pe-
terson it may be stated that he dia

Wheat Resume.

Chicago, Nov. During the first
eleven weeks of the present crop dur
ing the August wheat importing coun-
tries have taken 155,000,000 bushels OF
wheat or 3S,000O00 more than during
the same period last year The latest
Broomhall estimate shows the import
ing countries requiring during the
present crop year only 100000 bush
els more than they took last year.
They have already secured IS per cent
OF their additional requirements for
the year, getting it mainly from the
Danube and from the old Indian and
Argentine crop. The U. S. and Can
ada have supplied 100000 less than
during the same time last year. We
have boarded our surplus wheat while
our competitors were supplying Eu-
ropes requirements. America has
probably 100000 bushels which
must be sold abroad or carried over
into another drop year. The new Ar
gentine crop will come on to the mar
ket in January with a surplus that
promises much larger than last year
and this competition we must mCFL
with our surplus. The worlds buyers
this year certainly hold the whip hand
over the worlds sellers.

Grain Ouinions.

Logan and Bryan: The conserva-
tive position is that wheat may be en-
titled to a little further rebound, but
nothing doing in the situati at the
present time to give any permanent
upturn. This suggests selling side OF
market on any fair swell.
Finley, Darrell Co.: AS we have ex-
perienced a vicious decline in wheat
we would advise caution in selling on
breaks as sentiment is so immediately
bearish that the market is liable to
run into an oversold condition.
Shearson Hamill Co.: We see
nothing to change our bearish opinion
On wheat and although recognizing
the possibility of advances on techni-
cal and speculative grounds are still
unable to discover any immediate de-
yelopments inspiring the slightest con-
fidence on the buying side excepting IL
be for a scalping turn. H. w. & Co.

selling by commission houses and local
professionals the best buyers on the

due Temporary strength in the north
western markets helped prices here.
The tone OF the southwestern markets
was heavy with little interest being
shown by cash buyers. Utter lack of
outside interest is still a prominent
figure. We can see no reason to
change our opinion about the future
course of prices and expect to see a
dragging market.
