ANOTHER ENTERPRISE
AN EFFORT BEING MADE TO 10
CATE PAPER MILL ON SWEET
WATER LAKE.

Another indication that North Dako.
ta is destined to become manufao.
turing as well as an agricultural state
is the fact that Eastern capitalists are
now at work planning to put within
our borders an enterprise which, if car
ried out, will revolutonize the paper
industry in the Northwest, and the
start will be made right here at Devils
Lake.
The movement on foot to establish
print paper mill in this vicinity is
one Of the most sane, safe and timely
projects ever brought to North Dakota.
Print paper is staple article, always
in great demand, and every newspaper
owner knows but too well Of the high
prices and freight rates common to this
section Of the country. When it is con-
sidered that at present prices weekly
paper with subscription price of $3.50
per year, pays $l.55 for the paper alone
that goes to each subscriber it can
readily be seen what support the press
of this state alone will give such a
company.
We often grow enthusiastic over soma
civic improvement, some proposed
building or some new enterprise that

Tunbridge, N. D., May Troubles
of the Dispatch trophy tour pathfinder
are many, and probably the worst of
these took place Tuesday afternoon a
short distance from this village, when
the car was struck by lightning. But
the car reached Minot in the evening,
leaving again this morning for Willis
ton.
The Dispatch staff correspondent tells
Of the lightning incident as follows:
lightning struck the pathfinder car
of the St. Paul Dispatch trophy tour
mile and a half south Of Tunbridge
at noon. Daubner, the driver, was
severely burned about the hands. Oven
shire was shocked and Babcock, the op-
orator was knocked down but was not
seriously hurt.
GA church thirty feet away was
struck by bolt and fire destroyed the
building. A telegraph pole five feet
from the car was shattered. Wiring on
the pathfinder was burned out, causing
two hours delay.
"Koppang, pilot, and others of the
party, including two children, were not
injured. The church fire became so hot
that the car had to be pushed ahead. y

PRESIDENT HORTON
URGES COOPERATION
POPULAR PRESIDENT OF LOCAL.
COMMERCIAL ORGANIZATION
GIVES EXPRESSION.

The following communication from
the pen Of w. H. Horton, president Of
the local commercial club, contains
some timely advice to the public spirit
ed citizens Of the Queen City:
The big event in Devils Lake will be
the opening of the new Great Northern
hotel Public spirited men have stood
behind this enterprise and pushed it
through, and we have today as re-
suit Of their energy and enterprise, the
most. magnificent hotel in the North
half of the state.
1t is a great thing, that the city that
has gained more people in the last five
years, should have the finest hotel in
this section of the state But this great
hotel is made possible by the efforts
and public spirit only, of few Of the
citizens.
An opportunity privilege-will
be given to not only enjoy the Biggest
social event Of the year, but also 10
assist in very small way, the manage
ment Of the new hotel-by securing
tickets to the Grand Opening Dinner
and Ball which will be held early ii
June.
1t is only necessary to stop ant
think what an unsightly row Of broker
down old machinery and ansightly row
of rear ends of buildings, all of whief
have been replaced by the new Great
Northern hotel, to realize what an i'm
mense benefit the hotel is for this rea
son alone.
Let everybody get behind this propo
, sition at this time, and do each his par
to make this the greatest success iii tn
history Of the city.
After the hotel opening come the Ed
itors. After them the great Dispatcl
! Trophy Tour, which has been secure
. over night here. Then the Fcderate,
! Women s Clubs Of the state in the fall
The unanimous uspport of all is need
ed for each and every one Of thcs
events But especially let each AM
everyone in the city get behind til
new hotel opening and show others tina
we appreciate real good thing when
is right here-an actual rea!ity-an
not dream cf the future.
The Commercial Club has been askc
to help along IN this matter, and it
more than glad to do so. The followin
committee has been appointed: d. F
Bangs, Chairman; O'c Serumgarl, L.
Page, Henry Hale, Geo. Chaffee, Jac
Duis, Richard Daeiev.
Now in addition, let each one al
point himself Il committee of one t

FIRE HALL TO
BE A REALITY
Work To Be Started on Structure
Within the Next Thirty
Days--Bonds Sold

At the special meeting Of the city
council held last Friday evening the
proposition OF building new fire halt
was taken up and as a result we are
informed by Fire Chief Russell, work
will be commenced on same within the
next thirty days.
The plans of Architect Shannon of
this city were preferred by large
number Of the fire laddies and were ac-
cepted by the city council.
Chief Russell and Mr.. Shannon went
to Grand Forks Monday to consult with
Chief Runge of the Grand Forks fire
department. with reference to the plans
Mr.. Shannon had drawn. Chief Runge
was formerly chief of the Minneapolis
fire department and is one of the best
authorities on fire fighting apparatus in
the Northwest and his opinion on such
matters carry much weight. After care
fully examining the plans he stated to
Mr.. Russell that they were about the
best plans for fire hall he had ever
seen.
The plans call for building 40x9O
feet with two stories and full base
ment. The second floor will be divided
into different apartments and will con-
tain sleeping room for the iremen,
reading room, Chief IS Office, bath room
and a store room, while the ground
floor will contain the fire fighting appa-
ratus and stables for the horses In the
basement will be installed the heating
plant and later on it is the intention
of Chief Russell to have complete
work shop installed. The building will
be built to meet the requirements of
the city fire department for all time to
come, or until the city grows to such
proportions that it will be necessary to
have more than one station.
The completed plans and specidca
tions will be ready to submit to the
council within the coming week and ap-
on their acceptance .,y that body, bids
will be Immediately called for and work
on the building will start as soon as the
contract is let The structure will be
built of brick and the ground floor will
be of reinforced concrete.
/ The proposition of T. L. Belsecker of
Fessenden to take the bond issue Of
$4,000 voted at the last election was
accepted by the council. The bid was
for par, bonds to bear per cent in
terest and to run for twenty years.
All expense connected with issuing Of
the bonds is to be borne by the pur-
chaser except the abstract showing
that the bonds are legally issued. The
purchaser Of the bonds agrees to have
the money deposited to the credit Of
the city Of Devils Lake in the First
National Bank Of this city on or before
July lst.

may seem to benefit us or that may
advertise our city, but if we can obtain
this paper mill we shall be forming a
center in the state for the safest kind
of an industry. Tt is apparent that all
our business and professional men
should unite in one great effort to
locate such project here, for this is
something that will always be a help
to the city and state, aud will support
the community instead Of depending
upon the community for support.
This idea of locating a paper mill
at Devils Lake is not something new,
DR.. Pierce, who has had Offices with
Drs. Sihler & Mcintosh, having been
at work on this matter for the past two
years. Coming from Boston few years
ago he witnessed for the first time the
shameful waste of all kinds Of straw
within our state. Realizing the useful
ness Of straw in paper making, DR..
Pierce set to work at once in trying to
induce eastern capitalists to look into
the matter and to invest some money
in mill to be located in North Dako-
ia. He has succeeded in doing this
and the banks Of Swcetwater lake has
been chosen as favorable site for such
aI enterprise, there being plenty of
go,l water there and good facilities
for shippinp in straw, which would be
very essential in the making Of paper
from straw.
A meeting of the Commercial club is
called for tonight (Friday) at $3.50
O'Clock for the purpose of taking this
matter up and it is. hoped that every
member will be present and help boost
the proposition along. Get together.
Everybody at the wheel.

CASE a! IS THROWN OUT
EVIDENCE OF EDITOR BLcon,
WAS NOT CONSIDERED sUF-
FICIENT.

The case of the state of North pa
kota against the proprietor of the Op-
era Cafe, who was arrested some time
ago charged with maintaining public
nuisance, came up for a preliminary
hearing before Justice Maxsop at the.
city hall on Monday afternoon at 2
o 'clock. After listening to the evidence
submitted by the states witnesses,
chief among which was Sever Serum
gard, the complaining witness, Justice
Maxson took the case under advisement
until $3.50 that afternoon at which time
he dismissed it, finding that the evi-
dence was not sufficient to warrant
holding the defendant over to the dis
trict court.
The state was represented by State s
Attorney Duell while John J. Samson
looked after the interests of the de-
fndant
The first witness called was Silver
Serumgard, who stated that about July
10th, 1910, he was in the cafe with
Messrs. Belland, Dahl and jacobson and
had some beer. Said it was served by
a woman, didn It know who. Didn It see
any money but heard some on the tab
lie. When asked by Atty. Duell if he had
not made the statement to Assistant
State g Attorney Traynor last fall that
he had bought the beer from Mrs. Lean
der, Mr.. Serumgard refused to verify
his former statement and said he did
n It know who took the order Said nc
was in the place on July 18th at ban
quet and had a bottle of beer; settled
with Mr.. Belland for banquet after
wards-he thought he did. Didn y
know whether Belland brought beer or
not Refused to answer whether he had
bought beer.
The next witness called a;dn' It recol.
lect seeing the proprietor in the cafe al
banquet, and didn It know fpr sure
where beer came from but thought Bel
land furnished it for the occasion.
Messrs. A. B. Kerlin and j. NJ Kelly
both testified that they held a mort.
gage on the building and that Kerlin
negotiated all deals with renters and
", Gram closed them. Both emphatic.
ally denied they had authorized the sale
of beer in the cafe, and said they lad
been through the place several times
and had seen no signs of beer AMI had
no knowledge of it being sold there.
Editor John Fl. Bloom was called as
a witness and stated that he was in the
place with Ben Whitehead and Billy
Belford and saw three bottles of beef
and lunch bought. Said girl served il
but didn't know where it came from
Didn It know whether Belford or White
head paid for it nor how much was
paid. That was all he knew.
States Attorney Daell stated tha>
: there had been quite bit Of misinfor
nation given him in regard to the cast
: and it was necessary for Mr.. Serum
: gard, who was the complaining witness
: to move his chair near that of the
States Attorney and en;iearor to go

: The one thing that was accomr!ishe,
at the trial was to add little nor,

THE BEST ADVER-
T|S|NC MEDIUM

The successful business man of today
is the one who uses a liberal amount
of printer s ink and uses it judiciously.
Experience has taught the merchant
who has made success of his business
and has made study of advertising
that the best way to reach the buying
public is through the columns of the
newspaper. Thus, when a merchant
has anything special he wishes to place
before the people there is only ore
question that confronts him. That
question is: "From what paper can
secure the best results?" That is easily
answered The paper that is popular
with the people and is making rapid
growth on account of its popularity
and has subscription list made up of
people who have come forward volul-
tarily and planked down their money
because they wanted paper that was
unbiased and that they could depend
upon to give them reliable news, is
bound to be the best advertising med
ium.
THE DEVILS LAKE WORLD IS
ALL THIS AND MORE. We publish
only legitimate advertising of RESPONSE
BILE firms and our readers can bank on
getting value received for every cent
they may spend with a World advertis-
er. This fact has gained for us the
confidence of the public and is fast
: helping us to build up one of the best
newspaper businesses in the state. In
stead of catering to the class who like
the sensational and spending hun
dreds of dollars in an attempt to add
a few names to our subscription list,
The World is forging to the front by
giving it's readers the news minus the
sensational, and treating all alike;
and our subscription list is taking care
of itself. It is growing rapidly from
day to day and we believe we are safe
in saying that 95 per cent of the names
we have on our subscription books will
remain there permanently. Our readers
are taking The World because THEY
WANT IT-not 'tfor sweet charity's
sake.''

DETRoITs STREETS ARE
SAFER THAN FOR YEARS


within prescribed limits. They did
little more than warn>>motorists who
we're inclined TO exceed the speed
limit OF shoot past cars that were
standing still.
Up TO noon the policeman detailed
to Woodward-aye. had made no COM
plants. but his presence on the street
had salHtaFy effect. Motorists quite
generally eased up on their pace with
In the mile circle. and II they failed
TO stop on approaching a street car
that was taking on or letting on pas
sengers. they invariably slowed down
to such an extent that they could
come TO full stop In half the length
OF the machine and kept we'll away
from the car.
Among the traffic officers some un-
certainty exists as to just how the
ordinance applies within the traffic
zone. However, by using their judy
ment, as they have been doing right
along. they have avoided confusion
and no trouble is looked for on this
score at all. The automobilist who
cheys the traffic officers signal will
not go wrong.
One feature of the ordinance that
Is not being generally observed is the
clause requiring drivers in turning
from one street into another, to the
left. to turn around the enter OF the
intersection. The great tendency is
to cut across diagonally.
The rule requiring drivers to signal
TO those behind when they are about
to make turn is another that Is quite
generally disregarded. This violation
is apt to be prolific source OF acci-
dents. Women drivers. especially, ara
inclined to turn into side street at
good speed without stopping to look
behind them.
AS soon as the driving public has
had time to acquaint itself with the
provisions of the new vehicle law and
the policemen themselves have abb
sorbed It's salient points, complaints
will begin in earnest. In the mean
time, the naturally careless driver had
better be on HIS guard, for II does not
require much legal knowledge ON the
part OF a policeman to spot a case OF
plain, unadulterated recklessness.
