SEED GRAIN AND THE FARMER.

Thursday the Burleigh county board
of commissioners will meet to devise
plan for the collection of claims
against farmers who were furnished
seed grain by the county. 1t is the
desire of the board and the taxpay-
ers generally to deal as lightly as pos
sible with the few farmers who obi.
gated themselves for seed and suffered
a poor crop. There are some who
failed to secure a yield of grain suffi-
cient to repay the county for the ad.
vance without suffering a hardship. It
will be the aim of the officers to make
the burden as light as possible on
these, but those who did get a fair re.
turn for their seed and the labor ex-
pended In growing crop will be made
to plank down the cash. The amount
of the claim against the farmers Of
the county is between $4,000 and $780,
900. 1t is not large sum for the
county to carry as an item, but there
are other credits when combined with
this one which make the aggregate
quite large The county will need the
money to meet the natural expenses,
as no provision was made for extraord.
mary outlays in the tax levy. It will
simply be a matter of doing the best
that can be done for all concerned.

LOST HIS LIFE
IN RESERVOIR

DlLWORTH, Mimi, Sept. 2O.-A
man and horse were drowned in one
of the big reservoirs just east of here
yesterday afternoon. The body OF
the horse was recovered soon after
the accident, but that Of the man was
lost sight of, but as the water was very
cold it was expected that the body
would not be long coming to the sur.
face. 20
Two hunters in the vicinity of the
reservoirs, which were constructed in
connection with the Stockwood fill.
just about the noon hour shot and
killed a big white pelican. The bird
dropped on the east island, beyond the
reach of the hunters without crossing
the water. Several ways were devised
for reaching the coveted bird. The
hunters went over to the Barnes farm
nearby and the plan of building a raft
was decided upon along lines sug-
gested by George Barnes.
In few minutes a stranger came
along driving livery team and he
being told of what was wanted the
stranger said he would swim out on a

kind of business. One Of the team
horses was freed from its harness, the
stranger undressed and mounted the
animals back and entered the water.
Unknown to anyone the bank of the
reservoir fell off suddenly to q depth
OF Is feet. Man and horse went out of
sight and when they came to the sur.
face the man was seen to have a
death-grip around the horses neck
with one hand and with the other he
had grip on the animals nose, shut
ting off its wind. The man was told
to let go of the horses nose, but he
did not heed the warning. Finally
man and horse disappeared under the
water and both were drowned.
The body Of the horse came to the
surface very soon after death and was
recovered from the water, but the body
of the man could not Re seen at all.
The water was found to be very cold
and 1t was expected that the missing
body would not be long coming to the
surface.
The effects in the clothes of the
man who was drowned gave indica-
lions that his name was Quinn and
that he might have come from Maple
ton, N. d. He was middle-aged.

PERSECUTION TO HALT.

In sustaining DR.. Wiley, Presiden
Taft pleased the people of the Who'll
country. An eastern newspaper in
commenting on the case says:
1T means that the administration
will not countcnance the efforts that
have been made to secure the separa.
ton from the public service of man
that hac done invaluable work for the
benefit of the people, and whose dis.
missal on technicality could be con.
strued by the country at large only az
a victory for the interests which he
has been fighting for years by means
OF the pure food and drugs act.
The president says that he had
reached his decision in the case weeks
ago, but that he withheld his announce
ment in the hope that the house CON.
mittee which recently conducted an
investigation on much broader
ground than his own inquiry would
submit its report. He indicates unmis
takably his intention to carry the mat
ter further next winter and take
more radical action with regard to the
administration of the department of
agriculture.
THUS the president recognizes the
fact that the so-called Wiley case was
much more serious than it first ap-
peared, that it involved the efficiency
OF the governments enforcement Of
the pure foods act, that it included the
prestige of the department with tho
country. The evidence taken by the
slouse committee brought to light a
condition of which the public had been
unaware. and which, it must be as.
sumed, was unknown to the president
himself. 1t is unfortunate that tn
delay in the submission of the house
committees report should involve the
postponement of the radical action"
which the president promises, and
which. it is to be believed, will serve
to re-establish in the department of
agriculture an authority making for
the honest and thorough enforcement
of the law. Why could not the presi.
dent act upon the Information he has.
or can himself obtain?
"The presidents often cited judicial
ability appears plainly in this case.
He sweeps away the small technicali-
ties which the board of personnel O
the department, and, indeed, the attor-
ney general himself, urged as reasons
for the "condign punishment" of OH.
Gals whose only fault had been an
honest endeavor to secure for the gov.
eminent the best available expert
services at a legitimate rate of com.
pensation. The president is disposed
to let his chief legal officer down easy
by declaring that he did not have the
full record Of the case before him|
when he rendered his opinion for the|
guidance. This point does
