Sentinel Butte Wants 1t Now

County division is again being
agitated and if the scheme goes
through-and it may do so-there
will be a question as to whether
the seat of government of the
new county of Golden Valley be
located at Sentinel Butte or Beach.
Of course this town will have
the natural advantage of being
in the center Of the territory, but
Beach people are on the job
most of the time and if they
thought we we're going to get the
county seat they would not be
anxious to divide old Billings.
The question we wish to bring
forward through this statement is
whether Sentinel Butte people are
going to he ready for the fight,
when it comes. or not. TO han.
die a proposition of this kind
some sort Of organization would
seem to us necessary. Has Sen.
tinel Butte got it? Not yet.
Has Beach? Certainly.-Sentinel
Butte Republican.

are not in use for culinary or
drinking purposes.
Of the samples submitted that

National Bank, to resign, to &C.
cept the management of Overstad

Mr.. Maanum, while he has been

with it a large increase in salary,
as we'll as chance for advance
ment.
He expects to leave his present
position about September lst, and
Overstad & Hoverson are to be
congratulated on securing so val
liable a man. AS the directors of
the First National Bank have not
yet met to appoint a successor to
Mr.. Maanum, it is not known

BIG SALES IN

Beach Dealers Break All Previous
Records for Harvest Machinery
---352 Binders, II Threshers

In spite of the fact that this
season is a poor one in general.
such being the tone Of the reports
from all parts of the country, and
while it is generally conceded here
in the Golden Valley that the
yield will be under the average,
the implement sales-particularly
those Of harvesting machinery
do not show any failing off.
This is partially accounted for
by the heavy increase in the
acreage. which is nearly, if not
quite, fifty per cent greater than
last year. And, although it is
early yet, those farmers who have
threshed report better yields
than they expected-so that the
amount Of grain which will fnd
its way into the numerous eleva-
tors of Beach will equal or be
greater than that of last year,
and last year it was the largest
primary grain market in the
United States.
But what we started to talk
about was the record-breaking
sales of harvesting and threshing
machinery.
This season, since the grain be.
gan to indicate that it was ready
to be garnered, the three imple.
ment houses doing business in
this city have sold 352 new bind.
ers, q new threshing machines
and II engines, a record better
than last year, when we had the
bumper crop.
With all these machines owned
here there will probably be fewe1
rigs in the valley from outside
and if there is any profit il
threshing it will go into the pock
cts Of our home people.

MAIN WITNESS
 MADE HIS ESCAPE

Joe Rucker, negro, was bound over to await the action of the Jeff ferson county grand jury yesterday by Magistrate J. A. Frazier on a charge of assault with intent to kill. He was released on his recognizance, however, as the prosecuting witness has disappeared. Fucker carved up Henry Henderson, a negro, some days ago, after Henderson, it is alleged, mistreated Fuckers sister. Tender son was taken to the Sawyer and Austin hospital and although he was wanted by the county authorities, he escaped from the hospital last Sun day night, after Dr. Thompson had notified the county officials to send for him, the negro having improved sufficiently to be removed. Fucker was defended by Nixon and Shaw and prosecuted by Deputy Prosecut- ing Attorney Creed Caldwell.
