SWINDLERS Are NABBED
Pair of "FIoaters" Get Aimont Hotel
Man for $50, But Fail to
Make Escape.

Dickinson Press: Thursday after
noon Chief of Police Corbett and Dep
uty Sheriff Brown received instruc-
lions from the N. P. agent at Almont
to arrest A. o. Robinson and V. A.
Madton on No. 3. The officers were on
hand and boarded the train as soon
aid of the conductor had no trouble
in picking their men.
1t seems that the fellows came to
John Tischler's hotel in Almont early
in the week and registered as from
Minot. They learned that the land
lord wanted to sell his place as he
has homestead near Flasher and they
talked very fine and told him they
were looking for just such a business.
Terms were talked over and everything
appeared to be all right for closing
the deal, when the slick young fell
lows conceived the idea Of drawing a
draft for $50 on a Minot bank which
Mr.. Fischer Endorsed and the local
bank cashed. The mex. thing the land
lord knew his strangers has boarded
No. 3. 1t flashed upon hirl that he had
been swindled and he Immediately
took the matter up with the Almont
agent and found that the fellows
boarded the train without tickets. They
were easily apprehended.
Mr.. Fischer came to Dickinson on a
later train Thursday night ana the next
morning had the men taken back to
Almont.
II is more than likel. that Robinson
and Madton, as they gave their names
are floaters. Mr. Fischer will. get a
part of his money back and he thinks
that the experience is worth the bal
ance.

Chas. Council, colored, evidently ig-

to work as long as he had dollar in
his pocket. However. Judge Martin
Ryan has different ideas about para
sites. If there is one class OF individ-
uals handed PACKAGES 1t is those who

case the financier happens to be a
woman, the dose is doubled.
Council is the colored man who was
arrested several months ago for car
rying concealed weapons and served
thirty days in Jail. He was arrested
Immediately when released and only on
his promise to sell the weapon was he
allowed his freedom. This morning he
was unable to show that he was doing
anything for livelihood and was SEN
fenced to sixteen days in the city jail.

CANADA WHEAT
LOOKS 70 THE CANADIAN WEST
FOR Hen SUPPLY. ~

A dispatch from Winnipeg, Mantle.
ba. dated March 10, 1910 says, That
Germany is anxious to secure share
Of Canadian yheatz to supply aer In
ports of that cereal.. The recent id.
justment Of the trade relations with
Germany has made it possible to carry
IN Canadian-German trade with
much fewer restrictions than in the
past, and considerable development
Of trade between the two Countries
Is now certain. The great men Of
the United States are alive to tho
Wheat situation in this Country now,
and there is consequently the deepest
interest in every feature that will
tend to increase and conserve the
wheat supply. With its present $780,
100000 bushel production of wheat
and all efforts to increase it almost
unavailing, and the rapidly growing
consumrl;oa of its increasing popula-
ton, there is certainly the greatest
reason for the anxiety as to where tho
wheat is to come from that will feed
the nation. The United States will
be forced as Germany is to look to
the Wheatfields of Canada. Ono
province alone raised last year one
eighth as much as the entire produc.
ton Of the United States, and but .
twelfth of the wheat area has yet been
touched. The Americans who have
gone to Canada, are to-day reaping
the benefit of the demand for Canadi-
an wheat and they will continue to
join in the benefits thus reached for
great many years. Splendid yields
are reported from the farms of that
Country, and from land that the Gov.
eminent gives away in 100 acre
blocks, and from other lands that
have been purchased at from $12 to
SIS an acre. John Munter, near Eye
brow, Saskatchewan, a former resi-.
dent of Minnesota says:
Last fall got over 30 bushels OF
wheat to the acre and had 30 acres of
1t; also 20 acres spring breaking on
which I had fax of which got almost
20 bushels per acre. Had 20 acres
in oats and got 20 bushels per acre
and 500 bushels potatoes on one and
three quarter acre, and can therefore
safely say that I had fine crop and
am we'll satisfied with my homestead"
He is considered but a small farmer.
but he will be one of the big farmers,
some Of these days. There are many
others, hundreds Of Others, whose
yields were beyond this. and whose
average under crop was vastly
greater. The story of the experience
of American farmers in the Canadian
West is long one The time to go,
would appear to be now, when splen-
did selections may be made, and
where land can be purchased at prices
