SIXTY.ONE LOOK FOR
PARD0NS FROM BOARD
FOUR WERE EXTENDED MERCY
BY THE BOARD IN SESSION
FIRST DAY.
Usual Number of Relatives Are Ap-
pearing in Behalf Of Their Impris-
oned Fathers, Brothers, Etc.

The June meeting of the state par
don board convened Thursday and
found a list of sixty-one applications
staring them in the face.
There was little done at the morn
ing session but at the afternoon meet
ing a pardon was granted Frank Lake
of Fargo, who was sent up December
10, 1906 to serve sentence of five
years on a charge of assault with a
deadly weapon. Lake had been out
on parole since the last meeting Of
the board and according to report re-
ceived here he has been conducting
himself in an orderly manner John
NJ. Robbie who was convicted OF for
gerry and sentenced to serve two years
from January 7, 1909, was also grant
ed a pardon, he was sent up from
Pembina county.
The only other business was the
pardoning of Jacob and Philip Goeh-
ring who were serving jail sentence
in Sheridan county, for assault. 1t
appears that the trouble they were
mixed up in was more or less the
fault of others and they secured the
mercy of the board. 1t is probable
that a large number Of applications
will be acted upon today.

GILbREATH FURNISHES
SAMPLES FOR SPECIAL
SIX EXHIBITS PREPARED FOR
FAIRS WILL BE ON THE
TRAIN.
Samples Of Grain on the Stem and
Numerous Boxes Of Seed Will Make
Up the Shipment.

The much advertised special Bet
ter Farming Special will start out
from Fargo next week and make tri.
llmphal tour over the state carrying
the gospel of good farming to all who
care to get out and see the exhibits
and listen to the speakers. The ex-
hibits of grain and seeds that will be
on the train are furnished by Com
missioner of Agriculture and Labor
w. C. Gilbreath and consists of six
big cases of grain on the stem and
innumerable boxes of samples of seed
grains.
The exhibition is a, part of that
which has been used to exploit the
resources of the state at the various
state fairs, and is especially valuable
from the fact that it shows the re-
suits of practical and not theoretical
farming, as all of it has been raised
on farms in the state and under nor
NAL conditions, and has not been fore
ed or especially cared for.
The Bismarck Tribune has arrang-
ed to have a special correspondent
on the train for the entire time that
it is in the state. and he will probably
also follow the train for short
part of the trip into eastern Montana.
The special correspondent will send
daily wire specials and there will be

filed and bench warrant issued for
the arrest of Empting and Mccormick
and they were brought before Judge
Winchester and arraigned on the
charge. The cases were continued
and no definite date was set for the
trial and in the meantime the men

as many other people in four counties
in this part of the state counts for
anything, the attempt to induce the
come to naught, and it is evident an
active campaign viii soon be inaugur-
ated in hopes Of saving one of the few
lakes left in this part Of the state.
For years. Wall Lake. which is To-
Gated in Wright county, has been the
mecca for sportsmen from Wright,
ties and the movement on the part OF
selfish individuals who would wipe the
lake off the map, is naturally resented
by all the lovers OF outdoor sports.
One by one, the lakes in this part o.
Iowa have been drained to offer more
farm lands for the adjacent owners,
and it is evident the latest move TO re-
move this lake is started by people who
seek to profit by the drainage of the
lake, hoping to acquire the lake bed
tor agricultural purposes drter the
state has drained it.
The sentiment in favor of preserving
the last Of the lakes in this part of the
state is not confined 10 sportsmen alone
for there appears 20 be a sentiment
among all classes that this bit Of ma
ture should not be interfece1 with-sim-
ply because few people hope to profit
by buying lake bed at a low price
and later on sell it for fancy figure.
Ii is maintained by those who would
destroy this beautiful body Of water,
that the state can not afford to keep
1900 acres of waste land which form 5
the bottom of the lake. On the other
hand, those who favor preserving the
lake, feel that it is due the people Of
Iowa to preserve this bit of natural
beauty and purchase some adjoining
land for the purpose of making the
place popular resort for all who may
wish to recreate on the banks OF this
body OF water. Between a matter of
business and matter Of sentiment, the
latter has the bulk of the people be-
hind it and they viii try hard to save
