Vena J. Chezick, who some time ago
stumbled over an iron pipe placed in

Northern hotel as a part Of ornamen-

threatened to bring suit against the
city of Devils Lake for a considerable

will settle with the city for 500, the
council at it's meeting Monday night

The threats at bringing suit, made
by Miss Chezick's attorney, have ap-

in the matter of sidewalk distractions,
and Chief of Police Barnes has been
notified to see that all distractions
are either removed or boxed. Follow

Monday night, the chief has had bolts
in the sidewalks on Fifth street re-

parts OF the business district enclosed.
The canvassing of the special cleo

Work Starts ON Big New City
and Ramsey Go. Directory

What's the matter with Devils Lake
and Ramsey County?
Nothing, absolutely nothing. Search
where you will and you cannot find a
more progressive city and community.
It is a recognized fact that in addi-
ton to many other things needed to
make community up-to-date, a good
directory is essential. A directory, in
addition to giving the lists Of the in.
habitants, chronicles the growth and
history Of city or county.
That is what we are going to have:
a real county directory. Minot and
Ward county Is the only community
in this Estate that has ever had a di.
rectory Of this kind in the past. There
is no legitimate reason why Ramsey
county should not have one, for the
people here are, just as progressive as
they are in Ward. ~ r
About three years ago the city Of
Devils Lake had local directory. This
was very good as far ais 1t went, but
the new one will not only contain the
names Of the Inhabitants Of Devils
Lake. but Will also take IN every other
town and village In the county. In ad:
dincn to this class OF information, the

section, range and township number,
the number of acres possessed and the
postoffice address.
This will make very valuable pub
lication for the business and profess
sional people of the county, for it is
something that is greatly needed here.
The business men throughout the
county are highly enthusiastic, which
should make for its success.
1t will be aslocal enterprise entirely,
all the work of printing, ETC., to be done
here. The great directory publishers,
R. L. Polk & Co. published the Ward
county directory, but the Ramsey
county publication will be compiled
and printed by local parties. OF course,
to make the directory a success, it Is
necessary to have someone In active
charge, who is familiar with such
work, and the services of J. G. vigren
have been secured. Mr.. Vigren has
been in the. employ of directory pub.

BOND ISSUE Sent
THROUGH AT POLLS
City Will Have It's Own Little
Electric Lighting System
May Be

Yes, Vernice, the unexpected hap
pened.
The $4,000 bond issue voted on at
a special election in Devils Lake Mon
day carried. 1t carried with only FIVE
votes to the good, but it carried just
the same.
Four hundred and eighty-five votes
were cast. Two Of this number found
their way to the official wastebasket,
because they were spoiled. OF the re-
naming votes, 327 we're In favor of
bonding the city for an electric light
plant and 1856 votes were against the
Issue. 1t took 1922 votes to carry the
election, as two-thirds majority was
necessary.
The old fire whistle announced the
result of the special election although
it most likely would have blown It's
head off, If the voting had gone the
other way.
The voters expressed their wishes at
the polls, all right, and now Devils
Lake will have little lighting system
all Its own, Yes, 1t will-some of these
days.
Following band concert and street
parade and mass meeting at the court
house Saturday night, at which Mayor
McClory, Attorney J. ]. Sampson, City
Attorney Fred, +. eCuthbert, A. 3. Kari
lin and others aired their views on the
subject of municipal ownership of a
light plant, the voters pranced to the
polls Monday and voted the bond issue
through.
/ There were voters and then more
! voters. The vote was surprisingly
heavy. Voters came in automobiles
and wheelbarrows. Some walked
others ran. Some skipped to the ballot
box like young school boys. A few
! futtered down in aeroplanes. Any
how, most of the voters were there
and a few came that were supposed
to have been dead-ones. They all vot
ed once and a few hung around for a
chance to slip in half a gross of bal
lots.
| It was a great old election.
And the old world spins round just
the same.

From All Corners of the State Come
Stories of Phenomenal .,.

FF That North Dakota is the best state
for farming, is demonstrated more and
more strongly as reports Of 1911 yields
continue to come in.
Letters which are constantly being
received at the headquarters Of the
North Dakota Publicity Bureau in
Grand Forks, show phenomenal profits
in many parts Of the state.
Clarence Mackey, ten miles south
of Minot, reports 800 bushels of flax
from 40 acres. This is an average OF
twenty bushels to the acre. At $3.50
per bushel, Mr.. Mackey received ST..
$50, which is considered pretty fair
for a forty acre tract.
A. G. Dayton Of Glenburn, had 800
acres in fax and he reports that it
is averaging Is bushels to the acre.
His crop will bring him approximately
$4,000.
August Tampke, near Deering, has
just threshed 1900 bushels of fax
from 100 acres. He received $4,000 for
his crop. Mr.. Tampke. who came
from Oriska N. D., purchased the land
two years ago for $4,000. AS his crop
was also good one last year, two
crops have already paid for his farm
and left him good balance in the
bank.
j. B. Taylor received 1000 bushels
Of barley off Of forty acres five miles

Between toasts to Devils Lake and
her Commercial club, wit and wisdom
played tag over the long, snowy table
in the pretty dining room of the Ho-

hands in goodfellowship and proceed
ed to boost the things that are in the
making for greater Devils Lake and
a greater Ramsey county.
Men with smiles were there. If
there was member of the Crouch

known. The merry party was a love
feast If there ever was one. 1t was
gathering of some of the young blood
of the communicative blood that is
warming the veins of the mighty Lake
Region.
The affair was really a thank YOU
game dinner, given by the losers to the
winning side in the membership cam
padgn just closed, and many happy
recollections Of the contest we're re-

teams. The birds for the spread were
furnished by Jack Duis and were temp
tingly prepared and served by the pop

The feature of the banquet was the
invitation extended to James J. Hill
to be the honor guest at a big Lake
Region spread to take place some time
before the holiday season is well I'M

Mr.. Hill in the form of a telegram
signed by every booster present.
The joyousness of the occasion ap
parently prompted Alderman Avery

with an amateur minstrel show and he
forthwith suggested that the club put
black face performance on the
boards. His suggestion met with in.

E. F. Flynn, was named to take the
matter in hand. The show will prob
