AUTO RUN DURING
ELK'S CONVENTION
FARGO AUTOMOBILE CLUB WILL
TAKE LONG PLANNED-FoR
TRIP TO GRAND FORKS DURING
BIG CONVENTION OF STATE
ELKs' ASSOCIATION.

The first annual sociability run of
the Fargo Automobile club from Fargo
to Grand Forks. which has been
planned by that organization since the
middle of March, and which has been
prevented by wet weather. has now
been set for June 81 and %. the dates
of the first annual convention of the
state association of Elks, which will be
held in that city.
The original date for the sociabil-
ity run was set for the third Satur-
day in May, but the weather was so
inclement on that day that it was
postponed for a week. When the next
Saturday came around, the weather
was about the same so the run was
postponed until after the United COM
mercial travellers convention, which
WAS held in this city last week.
Now that there will be nothing more
of any great consequence until the
state bankers convention June q and
%, it was deemed advisable to have
the auto clubs run during the state
conyention Of Elks at Grand Forks,
as so many of the members of the
Fargo Automobile club are members
Va Nhot OAuSA OhN WAL wait " dJIeuu
the convention anyway.
DR.. E. L. Graves, chairman OF the
tours committee, is again active in
making the arrangements of the club
for the run June 81. 1t is barely
possible that the committee will hold
another meeting before the trip is
taken and that another meeting Of the
club will be held to arouse enthusiasm
among the members so that Fargo may
make good showing on that occasion,
which will be of great assistance to
the Ellcs attending the convention
who desire to bring back the conyen-
ton to Fargo next year.

MOISTURE SHOULD
BE CONSERVED
PRESIDENT WORST OFFERS SOME
ADVISE TO FARMERS cRAlN
SHOULD BE DRAGGED RIGHT
NoW-TRY SMALL SPOT AS AN
EXPERIMENT AT LEAST.

The generous showers that fell last
week in almost every section of the
state have painted an optimistic smile
upon the agricultural population-and
the rest of the people" said President
Worst today. Now, farmers, is a
good time to save moisture. The time
to save moisture Is when we have 1t.
Millions OF tons Of this water can be
conserved by using the weeder or even
the drag, on the grain fields, right
now. Break up the crust the heavy
rains have formed and hold the mois-
ture in the soil, instead of permitting
it to evaporate at will
IF you are afraid that you may in
Jure the grain, thoroughly drag or
weed, say ten acres, just by way of
experiment, and carefully not the diff
ference of yield, or the extent of in
jury wrought. Possibly the moisture
will be so abundant from this time on
that none need be conserved, then
possibly every drop that can bee saw
ed now will increase the yield Of
grain and probably much more will be
required to mature an abundant crop,
nobody can tell.
ut is long time before the har-
vest season will come If some of this
moisture can be carried in the soil for
next years crop, so much the better.
Next year may be dry one. Wasting
moisture is o. bad practice, especially
in regions of average limited rainfall.
Il am convinced that the fertility
Of our prairie soil is owing to limited
rainfall-not enough to leacn out and
wash away the soluble plant food.
am further convinced that within ten
years we will boast Of the fact that
we have just enough precipitation TO
insure bumper crop every year
when we have learned TO conserve ii.
There need never a crop failure
in North Dakota on account of
drought At the same time moisture
that falls must be held in the soil
and not given a chance to get into
the air by means of weed growth or
crusted surface. Save it for the econ
omic plants. Save it while you have
it. Use the drag or weeder right now,
at least on a part Of your growing
crop.

A Big SHIPMENT
OF FINNY TRIBE
STATE FISH HATCHERY MAN
TAKES OUT $4,000 SMALL FISH
FOR DISTRIBUTION TO LAKES
HATCHERY MEETING WITH A
GREAT DEAL OF SUCCESS.

One of the largest shipments of small
minnows from the state fish hatchery
passed through the city last night in
charge Of B. e. Miller of the state
hatchery st. Johns. There were
over 100000 of the small fish which are
about an inch in length.
Mr.. Miller was taking the minnows
to different parts of the state where
they will be distributed to stock the
lakes. Four of the cans which contain
500 each, will go to Dickinson where
they will be placed In the artificial lake
Of A. B. Fisher, Four cans will be
taken to Bismarck and 1000 of the Ash
will be turned over to Warden He'll
strom of the state penitentiary who
will stock an artificial lake at the
North Dakota bastile.
The Little Knife river is scheduled to
receive a big portion of the minnows
Adolph Lutz win place four cans in
this river to stock up the stream and
another four cans will go to E. A. Mann
who will place them in the Little Knife
Mandan is going to get big share
OF the fish that went through Fargo
last night. Charles NJ Whitman of
Mandan will secure four cans which
he will use to stock an artificial lake
The little minnows that were in the
custody OF Mr.. Miller were all steel
head and rainbow trout. They de-
manded the greatest care for their per-
feet preservation and Mr.. Miller re-
manned up all night so that at stated
intervals he could force air into the
water in the cans, which were also
kept well iced.
The state fish hatchery at st. Johns
is doing great work under the direction
of r. w. Main. Later in the season
100000 black bass and perch will be
distributed.

PEN|TENT|ARY PROBE CONTINUES
FIRST FIGHT BETWEEN LOVE AND KING

McAlester. Okla, Dec. 31.-The leg
islatiye committee investigating the
charges preferred by DR.. Love,
against Warden Dick, OF the peniten-
tiary, concluded its work here at six
O'Clock this evening with the excep-
ton of the testimony of Governor
Haskell, it being understood by the
committee that the governor desires
to give evidence relative to the state
ment of DR.. Love that the place of
prison physician was forced upon him
and that he was to have all kinds OF
perquisities as was the custom in 9TH
Mrs. r. w. Dick, Wife of the war
or state institutions.
den, was the last witness called this
evening, only to testify as to the
matted milk" story of DR.. Love. She
denied his allegations relative to this
as did Warden Dick and they were
fully corroborated by other witnesses.
Warden Dick was on the stand for a
long time and was interrogated on ev-
cry charge made by DIR. Love, meet
ing all questions promptly and max
ing no effort to evade anything. He
had the records to verify many Of
his statements and denied positively
everything in the charges
A number of other witnesses We're
called during the afternoon and their
testimony was all along the line OF
positive denials of the evidence of
the witnesses produced by DR.. Love.
Reports on file go to refute DR.. Loves
own statements when on the stand,
and these were offered in evidence.

A Fine Talker.

Il like the looks of this parrot,
said the lady who had stepped into
the bird store. is he a good talk
err" The proprietor replied that the
bird was an excellent talker, and
it was evident the customer was ia
vorably impressed.
What is your price for him?'
she asked.
The man had noticed the rich
apparel worn by hrs customer, and
he judged that there was a chance
to make a little easy money" at
the expense of one who would never
miss it.
Ten dollars" he said, with just
the slightest possible hesitation.
Five dollars, maiam,' instantly
croaked the parrot.
The lady looked at the proprietor,
who had turned red.
'He certainly is a fine taker." a"
she said, ''and he also seems to
have good sense. l am wiling to
take him at his own valuation. Dc
l get him for that?'
You do" answered the bird man
sadly.-Youth's Companion.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1911-01-01

Mr.. Truman said that he did not
see Harran, a negro convict, who
made affidavit that he saw the fight,
anywhere around at the time.
Storekeeper on Stand.
Most of the evidence Friday dealt
with accounts. Frank Harlan, former
ly storekeeper, told in detail of the
method of bookkeeping; he said that
few officers for a while got supplies
which We're charged to them and paid
for. He said that on November 80,
the practice was stopped but that on
the first day of the following January
! he received verbal instructions from
| Warden Dick to allow Steward King
to have groceries, keeping track of
the same. He said that the warden
discussed it with him, said that he
couldn't find anybody to take the job
with the long hours necessary with
out paying more than the fixed sal
airy. He said that the warden asked
his opinion as to whether $25 worth
of supplies would support the King
family. He said he didn't remember
whether it did or not.
Gus A. Lubbes was called and said
that no visitors We're allowed to en-
ter the penitentiary except with ex-
plicit permission from him or War
den Dick. 1t was presumed that this
was an attempt to discredit the story
of Mr. Bee as to the McManus par
don, but there was evidence later that
while w. A. Walker was secretary he
had admitted men whom he knew,
even without the order. 1t was shown
that Warden Dick, when this had
been reported to him, laid down strict
rules against its repetition in the fu-
ture.
Attorney Black, for DR.. Love, stated
that he might want to offer some re-
buttal testimony. The members of
the committee will leave here Friday
night, probably all of them going to
Oklahoma City. One of the attorneys
for Warden Dick, at the conclusion of
the testimony for the complainant,
jocularly said to Chairman Roddie
that he wished this was trial before
court where he could demur to the
evidence. That no shadow of a case
has been made against Warden Dick
but that the affairs of the prison

Some Discrepancy.

When DR.. Love was in a good hu.
NOR he made out divers reports as
state prison physician and he went
out of his way to throw flowery Ian
guage at Warden Dick, praising him
for his hearty cooperation, his deep
interest in the welfare of the con-
yicts entrusted to his care and his
general efficiency. Hence it was but
natural for the warden, when under
fire by the former physician who is
not now in such a good humor to
file copies of these official reports
including the last annual one made
by DIR. Love, as an indication that
there is some bitterness in the doc
tors present attitude.
Among the incidents this forenoon
We're three descriptions Of the King
Love fight that resulted in the sus-
pension of both Of them last Octo.
Der.
King, who was then steward told
his version, and he said that he had
been ordered to prepare a beefsteak
for a sick woman He sent orders
to have 1t prepared but suggested TO
the matron, Mrs. Kendall. that he
had seen the woman out and that it
might be well to shut off on the beef
steak business soon, 1t being the idea
that a convict will be sick as long as
beafsteaks are forthcoming. King
said that DIR. Love got distorted YER
sion of the matter because he came
down raging about his refusal to pre-
pare toast" for a sick woman. King
said that he tried TO expostulate with
the doctor, telling him that no toast
had been ordered that 1t was beef
steak and the same was cooking then,
and that he had only suggested TO
the matron, in the interest of econo-
my, that it might be we'll to see how
sick the woman still was.

King said that the doctor was sc
mad he wouldn't listen, that he
stormed about a good deal, declared
that he (King) was not fit for stew
ard if he refused to prepare food for
sick woman. King said that he
asked the doctor if he wanted to
make the matter personal and that
the latter had replied with the usual
fighting epithet hereabouts when
men are good and mad. Then they
mixed. They were separated and
King said that both the doctor and
he drew knives, neither having other
weapons.
Story Corroborated.
Kings version of the scrap was
substantially corroborated by d. J.
Clements, secretary to the warden,
and Mr.. Truman, chief clerk.
Mr.. Truman said that Clyde Mat
toX, famous as killer and acting as
convict aid to DR.. Love at the prison
here. started to rush in. He said
that he and the other official waved
him and other convicts back. He said
that MattoX seemed only eager to
stop the fight and not to mix in it.
Mr.. Truman said that DR.. Love evi-
IDENTITY was so violently angry that
he did not realize the language he
was using.
He said very positively that the
opprobious epithet was used before a
blow was struck and frequently en-
ployed with picturesque variety, af-
ter the melee started. Mr.. Truman
said that he didn't keep much track
of the language after the knives were
drawn. for it became a rather busy
moment for the peacemakers.
