To Sue Great Northern

Minot Reporter, July 28.-Ho-
ward Bohn Of Wi'liston, is in the
city today to consult an attorney
regarding an action he will bring
against the Great Northern for
personal injury.
Balm was employed as car in
spector by the Great Northern at
Williston. His duties were to look
after the refrigerator cars on thru
freights passing that point and see
that they were properly iced and
cared for. While in the discharge
af his duty and in stepping from
one car to another sudden jolt
by a switch engine precipitated
him to the ground and one of his
legs was run over. It was neces-
sary to amputate it and Bonn is
crippled for life. He will sue the
Great Northern for $40, 600.

that by combining with the out
side towns Kenmare may control
the politics of Ward county.

RECORD OF BIRTHS
ONE THOURAND AND SEVENTEEN BABIES
BORN IN STATE IN JUNE MAKING
A BIG GAIN OVER DEATHS

Talking about June brides,
they're not in it with the June
babies. .t. ..
That is what the report of the

latiOn.
According to the bureau, 1917

during the month of June, while
in the same month only S66 deaths
were reported for the state. The
record is an exceptionally good
one, showing that births have oc-
Cured at the rate of about three
to one as against deaths.
The net gain in population dur
ing the month of June, through
births, was 656, just that many
more births than deaths being re-
corded.
Better results are being obtained
at the present time in the matter
of securing a thorough registra-
ton of births and deaths than
ever before.
14Of the contagious diseases, mea-
sles again was the leader, there
being ninety-nine cases, fifty of
which were in Grand Forks county.
The other contagious diseases re-
ported follow:
Tuberculosis, five cases and one
death; smallpox, twenty cases and
no deaths; typhoid fever, four
cases and no deaths; diphtheria,
thirty-seven cases and two deaths;
scarlet fever, forty-two cases and
one death; measles, ninety-nine
cases and no deaths; whooping
cough, seventeen cases and one
death. Other contagious diseases,
six cases and no deaths.
Williams county reported 80
births and only one death.

MANY GOOD THINGS PROVIDED FOR THEM

cially convened, and those so dis
posed will wrestle with the gigan-
tic problems of politics, strategem
and spoils and how to build up the
state of North Dakota and make
its opportunities better known.
Then Friday afternoon there
will be the auto ride when the
motto of Missouri will be brought
into play and the beautiful, boun-
tiful crop of the farmers who how
or under the wing of the eternal
eagle will be exhibited, while the
refreshing breeze fans the cheek
of the cheerful visitor and caresses
his throbbing brain that has just
been so sorely taxed. While in
the evening the eaitor can swing
his affinity to the sweet strains
sent forth by Onstad's orchestra.
After all these and the Saturday
morning business sessions will be
the barbecue at noon and the juicy
steaks from off the fat steer will
serve to recuperate and make new
the body and brain of him who
has ventured thus far into the hos
pitality of a people who possess
the spirit of the cowboy with
many times his wealth. n
We are now nearing the end
and unto him. who has stood all
these things there is indeed pre-.
pared fitting finale in. the form
of the big banquet in the evening,
because the courses of good things
to eat and great events of oratory
will be so mixed and mingled, so
made and manufactured that when
the editors leave, Williston will
look like the celebrated city set
upon hill to the boys from the
Bad Lands, from the elegant east
and the sedate south. This is as
it should be and thus endeth the
first lesson. t ,,s

land where rolls the muddy Mis-
souri, and where the big crops
grow. Yes the editors of the
newspapers, the men who make
the country know, will be here to-
morrow and the next day and will
see our mighty meadows and the
waving fields of grain. They will
also feel the clasp of the welcom-
ing hand of Williston as she greets
them and view the beautiful city
and its busy streets; they will
gaze upon the handsome and sub
stantial business houses and the
elegant residences of our citizens
with the lawns of close cut grass,
sturdy trees and fragrant flowers.
This is not all for there will be
the many entertainments, the re-
ceptions, banquets and barbecue
and those other features that will
be better when not known before.
Also the ladies of the city will
join with the men to make the
visit of the wives of the editors to
Williston one of the memorable
events in their lives, for they have
booked special reception to oc-
cur in the afternoon of Fridry,
August .5th: from two.thirty to
five when all the graces will be

worn by the women of the town,

day will be enjoyed through con-
versation. "

business will first begin to turn
when the association will be off,
