Makes Some Charges Re-
garding Plant in Filtra-
ton Fight at Fargo

Fargo. y. D.. Oct. 10.-Attorney NJ.
A. Hildreth has filed papers in the
case as an intervenor in the action
of the city against Charles H. Mitch
ell. In the action he takes the place
Of Mr.. Mitchell as an i%ntervenor.
The papers of MIR. Hildreth not only
appear to have action regarding the
issue of the bonds and the certifca-
ton of the same but take UP the old
filtration plant case. h manuscript
shows that Substitutions have been
and the word "'~intervenor" placed
there. The document is a long n
and considering its content. it is pre-
sumed thai the great part Of 1t is the
complaint which Mr.. Hildreth first
drew up for Mr.. Mitchell and which
MIR. Mitchell refused to sign.
1t alleges that the plans and speci-
fcations and proposals for bids for the
filtration plant were void and illegal
and of no effect. That the purported
plans and specifications did no pre-
tend to give. nor did give. sufficient
data upon which proper and efficient
sired to enter into the competition for
the erection Of the filtration plant.
That the council illegally and inn
properly passed a motion authorizing
the employment of one Mr.. Burdick
as an assistant engineer to aid the
council in determining the lowest bid.
1t further claims that the motion to
have Mr.. Burdick and the fire and
water committee to examine the pro-
posals for bids as illegal and void.
1t claims that Mr.. Burdick illegally
and improperly purported to give a
report to the city council. Further
more that the contract was let to Mr..
Kennedy illegally, and that the con-
tract was void and illegal.
The complaint then cites from the
plans and specifications Of the city
engineer and draws certain conclu-
sions from certain theories expound-
ed.

10y Carlos y. Boynton of ST. Paul.
And it was at most AN accident that
Mr.. Nierling. owner Of II land where
the corr grew, entered IN the contest
at all. After George W, kurtz took
Vhe Stutsman county exhibits to the
exposition, he wrote back to MI. Nier-
ling that more samples OF different
crops were needed. Mr.. NleflnS tnen
spent considerable time going over the
county for the exhibits which he sent
on to Mr.. Kurtz. Then came a Sec
.ond call from Bismarck for still more
exhibits and it was then thai MT. Nler.
iing went to his w farm and plcked
out ten good ears of his corn TO MI
out, little thinking that this would
prove the best Stutsman corr on en-
addition there.
There is DOUBTLESS plenty of corn
as good as mine in this county and
some better said MIR. Sierling III
Epeaking of his exhibit.
MIR. Nierlins has fifty acres of the
corn, twenty-five of which he mas al
ready put into his now famous siio
and the rest which is now i'll the
shock, promises a fine crop.
The exhibit of corn at the EXPOSE
zion will be taken to the land show
70 be held in St. Paul in December
and in addition TO this the exhibits
have a chance at the state prizes to
be conducted in connection with the
1912 convention of the North Dakota
lcorn Growers association and the
prizes offered by the banks of James,
town. Exhibits for the local prizes
must be left at the city hall or II
ST the banks on or before December
I and the contest will be managed by
the local bankers some time after that
date. This will max" it necessary for
iaew samples to be furnished for the To-
cal contest. The jamestown prizes are
s25 first. SIS second and $40 third for
the best ten ears each of dent and flint.
S. F. Corwin has selected 1850 ears
of corn from his fields this year and
will a this to plant an entire quar-
ter section of corn on his large farm

1t is believed that many more n
exhibits might have been sent to the
