sented the piaintiff.

cases being tried together. The
claims set forth is that the plaintiffs
lost property south of Windsor caus-
ed by prairie fires occurring in

Ed Mcmahon, who was convicted
of blind pigging by the jury, was
sentenced by the court to year. S
imprisonment in the penitentiary in
stead of the usual fine and Jail SEN

was due to the fact that the defend
ants crime was the second offense of
the same nature and the law requires
a term of service in the penitentiary.
He was given the minimum sentence
by the court.
Bert Kenneson who was taken for
a hearing in the federal court at Far
go, on the charge of running booze
joint and bootlegging, was sentenced

Ex. TREAS. BICKFORDS TRIAL
FOR EMBEZZLEMENT AND FALL
SIFYlNG RECORDS
BEGUN

Washburn, N. D., June 19.-The
trial of ex-State Treasurer G. L.
Bickford, charged with embczzlement
Of state funds, was begun here this
morning
The removal of the case from Bur-
leigh county was secured by the de-
fendant on the grounds of prejudice,
, and petition for such removal be-
ing directed both against Judge Win
chester of the Burleigh county dis
trict court as we'll as against the peo-
pie of the county. On account of
the fact that the case has been trans
! of co members, twice as large as is
ordinary drawn, has been made.
Judge Crawford of the Tenth judi
| cia district has been named by
Judge Winchester to hear the case.
| Bickford will be tried on three
charges--that of embezzling 100000
and $4,000 of the state funds and
| falsfying to state records. The first
| charge is that of depositing state
| funds in excess amounts in the First
State bank at Bowbells, Of which he
was president He sold his interest
in the bank after advising the public
that all moneys due the state have
! been resttuted and the slate cleared.
| The last legislative assembly appoint
| u-bich
| looked into the matters in the state
treasurer's office and this case is the
result The committee found there
was issued to the state by the First
State bank of Bowbells from $780,
| 900 to $4,000 in excess of the a.
mount allowed by law; these certi-
| ficates were carried practically during
| the full terms of Mr.. BickfOrd's term
! of office without interest to the
state. A number Of banks were in
! vestigated after the session closed
and the committee has just filed it's
last report with the governor.
Subpoenaes have been served on a
number of witnesses commanding
them to appear in the district court
June 21. 1t is expected the jury
will be secured by that date.
George A. Bangs, the leading at
torney in the Cowan impeachment
case, will be the attorney for the de-
| fendant with the assistance of Niles
and Koffel of Bismarck. States At
| torney Smith of Burleigh county,
| with Judge Edward Engerud of Far
go, will represent the state.
