When WASHINGTON swore.

did you ever know that Washing
ton had one of the closest calls of his
life within stones throw of Times
square?' remarked New Yorker to
an out-oftown visitor. There's the
record of tan adventure that came
near changing the history of the coun.
try
The New Yorker pointed to a bronze
tablet on the row of houses facing
Times square above Forty-third street.
1t seems that in the revolution the
redcoats were selling Manhattan and
the Americans were getting out as
fast as they could, bag and baggage.
Times square was open farm land
then, and the fugitives came up Broad
way or Bloomingdale road. Gen. Put.
nam and his men were nearly caught
by the British, but got away and were
coming up the road when Washington
met them.
"The Father of His Country let out
string of curses and tried to stop
them. The man who wrote histories
hasn't the nerve to set down what he
said, but he could swear like trooper
when he got started. Putnam's men
were SO scared. though, that they kept
on running. Washington was wild
with rage, and galloped away with his
staff across the fields. Where Bryant
park now is, he ran into so redcoats
and would have been taken II his com
panions hadn't pulled him back. What
would have happened If Washington
had been made prisoner New

german Still IN RACE
FOR Hotel Inspector

Grand Forks, Dec. 1G.-The story be-
ing circulated in some parts of the
state that William German of this city,
who is a candidate for the appoint.
ment of state hotel inspector, had de-
termined to withdraw from the race
to accept the position of deputy sher'
if Of Grand Forks county, is entirely
erroneous, according to statement
made today by number of his
friends. Mr.. German has not in any
way quit the race for the appointment
as hotel inspector and will not until
the selection is made.
He has the entire endorsement Of
the local U. C. T and they are work.
ing for him in all parts of the state.
While the friends of Mr.. German have
not made any strenuous fight against
the present incumbent, they believe
that inasmuch as he has had two
terms in the position he should now
stand aside for some one else, espe-
cially in view of the fact that the
Grand Forks boys have in the past
stood by him.
1t is these things which lead the
Grand Forks knights of the grip to
look upon the circulation of the story
that Mr.. German has withdrawn from
the race as unfair.

Dem. Committee IS
NOT Behind PAPER

Fred Mclean, secretary of the state
Democratic central committee, while
in Devils Lake, made the following
statement concerning the proposed
Democratic daily which, it is claimed,
is to be launched at Fargo in the near
future:
There is talk that such paper will
be started, and hope we may have a
Democratic newspaper in every city in
the state. The report has gained cir
culation that the new Fargo paper is
backed by the Democratic state cen
trail committee, and that through the
committee it is proposed to make the
new paper sort of state organ of
Democracy. This is untrue. The
state committee has taken no action
with reference to the matter, although
a committee was appointed at the last
meeting to investigate and consider
certain newspaper propositions. This
committee has made no report as yet.
The people behind the proposed Fargo
people are starting it on their own re-
sponsibility, just as other Democratic
papers in the state have started. The
experience of the Democrats of the
state with the Fargo News has been
sufficient, I think, to discourage sim
liar undertakings for many years to
come"

DR.. CREWE RETURNS
FROM NATL. Meeting

DR.. w. F.. Crewe of Devils Lake,
state veterinarian, has returned from
Chicago where he attended a three
days meeting of the United States
Live Stock Sanitary association.
Eighty-five repres entatives from the
different states were in attendance
and the meeting was one of the most
important yet held.
The association is composed of
members of state live stock sanitary
boards and officers and officials of the
U. S. bureau of animal industry. Live
stock men all over the country are in.
terested in the movement.
DR.. Crewe says the object of the as
ISOLATION is for the Improvement of
live stock sanitary control work.
Many scientific and practical papers
were read and discussed. Addresses
were made by railway representatives
and representatives of health depart
mcnts.
An important move that was placed
on foot was the move to create uni
form regulations in the different states
for the Interstate and intra-state
movement of live stock. A committee
that was appointed last year to rec
ommend basic for the purpose,
made it's report, which was recon-
by the association to be used.

COL. G0kEY PLANS
BIG HUNTING feed

Dawson, N. D., Dec. 16.-Col. J. J..
Gokey, perhaps the greatest hunter in
North Dakota, and one of COL Roose-
velt's close friends, has issued a large
number of invitations to his many
friends over the state for big Christ
mas party to be given at his home, the
Roosevelt club house on Lake Isabel,
near here. The party will last over
Christmas eve and Christmas day.
Col. Gokey is one of the best known
figures in North Dakota and has the
reputation of being one of the greatest
hunters in the northwest. His record
for prairie chicken and wild grouse
hunting is unsurpassed in the Flicker
tail state, and his fame for shooting
other game is equally as great.
Several years ago when Col. Roose-
welt, then president, was at Bismarck,
Col. Gokey rode over to the state CAPT
tai and presented the nations first
citizen with an extraordinary bag of
chickens which had fallen of his own
shooting. The president was exceed
ingly enthusiastic over the compli-
ment and his chicken dinner was one
of the repasts he relished most on his
western trip. Col. Gokey still dresses
in his former style of the frontiers
man and wears his hair long, in the
fashion of the old hero of the west
ern plains.

FARMERS MAKE SUCCESS
Of Cooperation AND
CONSOLIDATED SCHOOL
Farmers Institute Demonstrated
Successful Cooperation
Ladies Served Dinner and High School Girls
Acted as Mattresses

Fergus was the first place In North
Dakota to start consolidated school.
They began making preparations In
1903, holding elections, voting in favor
of it, and voting bonds. In September
of 1904 the building was completed
and classes begun. Two rooms were
sufficient at first, but in 1906 third
teacher was engaged. The children
are brought in busses. There are now
five in use. The school is in session
nine months and the attendance for
the year is about 80 per cent. This Is
certainly very unusual for children in
the country.
Having quite a distance to 60 to
trade. the farmers got to gether and
organized a stock company, and built
store and put in a stock of goods.
They mark up the goods Is per cent
above wholesale prices, and at that
they undersell the merchants in the
surrounding towns. After paying all
expenses they have declared divi-
dend each year, varying from 10 to 80
per cent and the store has been run
ming six years.
When they were planning to hold
a farmers institute, those who had
the matter in charge appointed CON-
mittee of ladies', six in number, to
provide for feeding those IN attend
ance These ladies divided up the
community, each one to see seven 9TH
err ladies', which they did. Forty-one
brought supplies and they were abun-
dant ones. When the time came for
dinner, which was served in the same
hall as the meeting was held in, the
ladies served the meal on plates, dish
ing up meat, potatoes, sandwiches, pie,
cake, pickles and what not, till the
plates fairly groaned. These were
passed around by the girls from the
high school 1.-TWO years of high school |

work Is given in the consolidated
schOOD; coffee was also served. The
building was crowded to its full capa
city, yet by Las the meal had been
served and the dishes packed up and
everything in readiness for the after
noon meeting. The despatch with
which the work was carried on shows
the result of having worked together
The Farmers Institute held there
the 18th and 14th of December was
very we'll attended. The speakers
were Supt. Hoverstad. Profs. Randlett
and Palmer. The main fine of discus
sion was on the subjects corn and
clover.
Mr.. Thomas Mooney of Fergus grew
great crop of corn in 1909. He had
a field of Is acres that went 20 BUSH
els per acre. He raises a great many
horses and that fall bought a great
many hogs, so that he fed it all on
his farm. He said that it was the first
year that he had grown corn and that
the crop was so big that at first he
did not know what he was going to do
with it. He shredded the corn, put
ting the fodder n one big stack, and
it kept we'll. The corn he put some in
the granary, but most of it in open
cribs.
The farmers organized a club with
Thomas Mooney as president, T. K.
Tobiason as vice president and Hector
Mckenzie as secretary. They will
hold meeting perhaps twice month,
the farmers coming together and tell
ing each others experiences. They
will also call in outside talent to at
tend the club at times. They are also
planning bringing their families and
a picnic dinner and making a day of
it, combining the social with the prac.
tical. This certainly augers we'll for
his community.

Grandma !Sandersou, Of DeWitf, No..
Has LIKED a Long and Useful Lite.

Grandma Sanderson is a wonderful
woman. She is in as good health to-
day as ever in her life, although she
is over one hundred years old.
In a letter to tho Peruna Drug Mfg.
Co., she gives the highest credit to Pc
runa for her excellent health and ex-
IRENE old age. Read what she says.
Surely the evidence presented by
such cases as these ought not only to
dispel prejudice against Peruna, but
inspire confidence in it.
Il will send you picture that was
taken few weeks before my hun
dredth birthday.
II am a true friend Of tho Peruna
Company. I have derived great ben
eft from Peruna many times. can
say 1regard Peruna a very great med
icine. ! found out the merit of it q
good many years ago.
"A little moro than two years ago I
contracted a very severe cold, which
resulted in Ia grippe. Owing to tho
severity of tho disease, and my ex.
treme age, my case was considered to
be very critical I employed no doc
tor, but Peruna was the remedy I
used, and to-day my health is as good
as it ever was in my life.
However, I still continue to take
Peruna, a spoonful every night before
retiring"
Peruna is an ideal tonic for old
people. It is a compound OF herbal
remedies that has been known to tho
medical profession for many years.
Peruna operates as tonic by cleans.
ing and invigorating the mucous mem.
branes. This explains why Peruna
has become 50 extensively known as q
catarrh remedy. Catarrh is simply
condition of depraved mucous mem
branes. Peruna changes this deprav.
ity into healthful vigor.
Agreat many old people use Peruna,
and would not be deprived oft for any
consideration.
People who object to liquid medi-
ciues can now secure Peruna tablets.
