MOORHEADOUTCLASSED
High School Debating Team Was Out
cIassed in League Debate at Two
Harbors Last Night.

There is gloom in Moorhead. Her
pet high school DEBATING team fell
victims to the oratorical prowess OF
the high school team at Two Harbors
in the league debate at that place last
night. The defeat means that Moor
head will not be represented in the
final debate for The Journal cup at
St. Paul. A brief message from SUI
perintendent Edwards says the Moor
head team was outclassed and the
decision of the judges went to the
high school of Two Harbors. The
Moorhead debaters had the affirmative
side of the question, that Minnesota
cities should adopt the commission
form of government. 1t is only fair
to say that Moorhead was up against
a hard proposition, but it was inevi-
table. There was fighting chance
and the locals did not propose to be
classed as "pikers." so they took the
risk of defeat in open battle

SWINDLES N. D.
BANKING HOUSE

This morning w. c. Macfadden,
secretary of the North Dakota Bank
ers' association, received word from a
prominent North Dakota bank, telling
of how the financial house had been
swindled out of $500. The young man
who perpetrated the deed answers the
description of the same person who
worked a similar graft on North Da-
lSota banks just a year ago next month
and a year ago last February.
The man wrote the North Dakota
bank from Buffalo, N. Y, and signed
himself as H. E. Miller. He said in his
correspondence that he had noted that
the bank was advertising some land
in The Omaha Bee and that he would
like to have further information and
particulars regarding the farm pro-
perty.
hotel in Kansas City and stated hat
he would first go to Oklahoma, where
he would look over farm property
there. However, if he did not want to
invest in the southern state he would
like to see the North Dakota property.
Correspondence between the bank
and Miller was carried on for some
time and one day he arrived at the
bank, man of successful business ap-
pearance. He talked a great deal about
Oklahoma lands, oil wells and the like,
showing that he had been in the new
southern country
The officials of the bank took him
around In an automobile for two days
and Miller finally selected the land that
he desired. The papers were drawn
and he gave two drafts on an eastern
bank, one for $4,000 and the other for
$4,000. He left these drafts for col
lection, also the papers, giving every
indication that the bank would have
plenty of time to get the money on
the drafts before closing the deal
However. the smooth individual got
a check cashed at this same bank for
5000, and in less than twenty four
hours he had disappeared and has
never been heard from since.
Miller is described as being a young
man about 81 years old, good looking
and of good address. smooth face and
smooth talker, brown wavy hair and
slightly gray at the temples. He
weighs about 100 pounds and is s feet.
10 inches tall.
The man who worked exactly the
same graft In this state last year
answers this description. At that time
he went under the name OF r. A. Nc
Gray.

Want SHOOTING
LAW IGNORED

AT the meeting Of the state game
and fish board this afternoon at the
Metropole hotel, the members of the
board went on record to ask the sports
men of the state to ignore the new law
which allows the spring shooting OF
birds next year.
]. II. Killion OF Fargo introduced
resolution before the board which was
adopted and which asks every sports
year from this spring. According to
the law passed at the last legislature,
the hunters may shoot If they desire
and kill the old birds with. their young,
as well as the young ones. but the
sentiment of the board which protects
the fowls is decidedly against this.
The members OF the board think that
the law passed was a mistake and that
the birds coming to North Dakota In
the spring should be protected This
law goes into effect next July, so does
not at all hunor the unsportsmanlike
fellow who would like to shoot the
birds this spring, Every year there
are hundreds of birds. many of them
ducks, which nest in North Dakota, and
the board is anxious to have these
remain here.
Before the board adjourns the dis
trict deputy game wardens will be APP
pointed for the state. Just what
names will be presented and selected
is not known, but it is thought there
will be no great change in the person
mel of the district officials.
AT the meeting this afternoon the
board also allowed their printing con-
tract for the year. This contract calls
for number of extensive jobs to be
done.
Among the men who are meeting
with, the board is Captain Mayne, who
is the director Of the state fish hatch
cry at Fish lake. He is interested in
the work that is being done by the
board and will make his annual report
at the meeting.
Others present at the meeting of the
board are Herman Winterer Of Valley
City, David Armstrong of willow city.
