STOLE LOAD OF WHEAT
Young Farmer, Caught in Theft Near
Napoleon, Skipped Out After
Borrowing IS.

Napoleon Homestead: The other
night young farmer living In the
country east of Napoleon stole load
or wheat from a neighbours granary
The neighbor discovered his loss next
morning and followed the tracks made
by the unwelcome visitors vehicle.
After following the track for q few
miles he came upon the young thief.
The first intent of the neighbor was -
give the fellow a good trouncing, but
he abandoned that idea and decided to
come to town and have him arrested.
The young mans excuse for stealing
the wheat was that a creditor had
threatened to foreclose a mortgage on
his team of a balance of about $50 in
debtedness was not paid Immediately
and that he stole the wheat in order
to pay same. The neighbor came to
town. After leaving the young man
the latter rode a horse to a neighbor
and borrowed IS, saying that Mr.. 80.
had taken UP his cattle and wanted
damages, which he desired to pay.
Since then he has not been seen. And
we also understand that no complaint
has been laid and no warrant for his
arrest has been issued.

Of the winter season. In the face Of
the present autumn drought, the solid
freezing of the river seems probable,
in which case the city would not only
lie bereft Of fire protection but also
means Of sanitation.
The water committee, which made
a trip recently, in company with Mayor
Lowell and Samuel Kahn, of the Union
Light Co, inspecting the Red river
for distance Of twenty-five miles up
stream, reported the great probability
Of the rivers freezing owing to it's
extreme low condition. The commit
tee was given power to act.
Incorporated in the plan for the
building of new dams or reservoirs
III the river in the vicinity of the water
works, is a scheme for the digging
of an artesian well in Island park in
a section granted the city for such
a purpose by the N. P. railroad. In
this matter the committee has also
the absolute power to act In whatever
may be best for the interests OF the
health and welfare Of the citizens
of Fargo.

at the special session Of tho city courl-
Gil In ali there were nine bidders, and
the bonds were sold to the highest of
these, with the provision That ~ cn9a
all requirements stipulated in the pur-
chase permit their rejceliOn u re

FARGO BOY GOT
into TROUBLE
TRIED A NEW SCHEME FOR Rails
ING CASH, BUT 1T FAILED
CLAIMED he WAS RAISING
FUNDS TO PAY A BILL AT SIR.
JOHNS HOSPITAL.

The Reynolds Enterprise has the fol-
lowing story Of the trouble Fargo
youth got into when he attempted to
work small swindling game:
Wednesday Mike Miller, II years Of
age, who came here from Fargo. was
collecting money by popular subscrip-
ton from the good hearted citizens of
Reynolds. He showed d letter mr.
porting to have been written bv Sister
Isadore of ST. Johns hospital in Fargo
stating that ne had recently recovered
from typhoid fver and owed $50 for
hospital expenses He stated that he
was collecting this money to paw the
hospital
When he showed the letter to Mrs.
d. j. Hennessy, who is familiar with
the sisters signature. she thought
something was wrong. Chief Steen
was notified, and during a quiet talk
with the young man Miller admitted
that he wrote the letter himself. He
said that he had worked at the hospi-
tai, but had not been sick. He really
intended to use the money to pay his
fare to Baltimore, where he wanted
to go to school.
He was very careful to take the
name of every one who gave him
money, intending to return every cent
when he could He showed Steen a
certificate emitting him to a ten years
course there with all except incidental
expenses paid.
He said he had always had desire
for a thorough education. He was
without work or money and thought
of this plan for raising the necessary
funds to pay his fare. He claimed he
had never attempted anything of the
kind before, and Mr.. Steen and others
who talked with him say there is
every reason for believing his story.
He was advised to phone Sister Tsa-
dore and ask her to forgive him,
which she very kindly did. She told
Budd Schumacher, who talked to her
at the same time, that she remembered
Miller, that he worked at the hospi-
tai several months and that he APP
peared to be young man of ex-
emplary character. Miller left on the
evening train for Fargo, where he said
he would go to see Bishop O'Reilly
about the matter.

A GAME WARDEN
OR BILL POSTER?
GEO. w. WILKINSON AND OTHER
GAME WARDENs DEVOTE
THEIR TIME TO POSTING
5uRkE's PICTURES AND WORK
ING FOR DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

1T is very evident that numerous
men in the employee of the game and
fish board of the state are looking out
more for the personal politics of John
Burke than they are looking out for the
protection of the game of North Da-
kota," said well known citizen Of Far
go last evening
He continued: 1.-THE way some of
the game wardens VINO are appointed
by Burke, have time to devote their
attentions to the interests Of Burke and
not to the states welfare is a mystery
to me. George w. Wilkinson, game
warden located in Fargo, finds a great
deal OF time these days distributing
posters and pictures of the likeness of
Burke and yet he has already drawn
| $1,1S4.37 from the state as his salary
as game warden"
1T is known fact that E. III. STEM
wick of Minot is spending his time
campaigning for Burke, instead of
| looking after the duties of the game
warden. Yet he is drawing nice
salary as game warden and is pre-
sumedly working for the state. The
presumption is wrong however. He is
working for the governor, not the gov
eminent"
While .he game wardens and other
officials under the game board who are
appointed by Burke, have drawn $751;
243.S0 to date the real men who have
done the work of the game wardens
have drawn but $527.70. These men have
been paid paltry sums for doing the
actual work of the game wardens dur
ing the last few months. while some
of the game wardens have been going
around working the political game In
the interests of their benefactor, John
Burke. In other words, paying off
political obligations by serving the in
terests of one man.
1t is to be noticed that there are
more game wardens employed this year
than last year and that Gov. John
Burke realizes that he can use more
men for his own interests during
campaign year than any other years.
Already the game fund has spent more
money for salaries and printing than
II did in the entire year of 1909, by an
excess of over $4,000 and still there are
more than two months of the year yet
to be gone through with.
1t is reported, and on good authority,
that many of these game wardens are
paying a certain per cent of their sal
aries towards the democratic campaign
funds. Just what this per cent may be
is withheld by the workers of the
democratic campaign.
Recently Fargo was billed and posted
with pictures of the state executive,
John Burke. Who put out these post
ers and who spent the time to do all
this working? Ask almost any bust
ness man who has a picture of Burke
in his window: who put it there? ?"
He will almost invariably tell you that
1T was George W. Wilkinson. And yst
George w. Wilkinson has drawn al
most 81 200 in salary already for per-
forming the duties of game warden Are
the duties Of the game warden to post
pictures Of Office seeking individuals?
Are game wardens paid to devote their
time to their personal interests and the
private interests of John Burke?

ABANDONED PUPS
TO sTARVE OR FREEZE.

Stanley Promoters: Thirty days on
the rock pile would be altogether too
lenient punishment for the contempt
ible specimen of humanity who
brought in six 4-weeks- old pups and
abandoned them to freeze and starve
to death by dumping them on a vacant
lot in the city last Saturday night.
They were found during the next day.
one dead and the others nearly so.
They were taken care OF and fed
and every one found home.
They were lively little fellows after
they were thawed out and they will
probably make good dogs, which is a
blamed sight more than we can say of
the low lived excuse Of humanity who
abandoned them to starve and freeze.
We should call him a mongrel pup
with a mighty poor chance of ever be-
coming anything else.
