INCORPORATORS Won.
However, There are Breakers Ahead
and There May be Trouble
injunction Possible.

AT special election, held last Sat-
urday afternoon, the voters OF the town
OF Dilworth decided by vote OF SIS to
20 in favor OF the Incorporation OF the
town into village organization. A
year ago the proposition submitted was
defeated by a similar majority the
other way.
The special election at which village
officers will be elected awaits the
pleasure of the county commissioners,
whose prerogative 1t Is to start the In
corporation bill a rolling.
A rumor was current at Dilworth to-
day that one or two men who were OPP
posed to having their lands included
within the proposed village territory
were talking OF instructing their attor-
neys to secure an injunction, and tie
the matter up in knot so tight that 1t
cannot be undone. The two men allege
that they entered q protest to the.
county commissioners. but the latter
took no notice OF them. and now they
propose to make the gentlemen of the
county board see q few things which
they seemed to have overlooked.

AN INNOVATION
in HARVESTING

Beach Advance: Harold Vorce, one
of the bonanza flax farmers of the
Golden valley, has this week sprung
an innovation on the tate In advanced
harvesting methodist the new equip
ment he has just brought here for use
on his celebrated Lower Valley farm
proves the Improvement he believes it
to be upon the harvesting machinery
heretofore In vogue In this section.
Mr.. Vorce's new equipment is moth
ing less than the famous California
combine" or harvester, thresher, and
cleaner, which places the grain in
readiness for the elevator as soon as
1t leaves its natural position in the
field North Dakota has been long en-
gaded In the raising OF small grains
but it remained for this daring farmer
Of the Golden valley. so far as we
can learn, to first introduce into this
state the much Wanted California mo-.
chine That it will prove successful,
when handled right, Mr.. vorce thinks
Is without question. For the present
season he will experiment with the
machine only upon fax, but with the
coming year it is his intention to
place 1t in use upon wheat and other
crops as Well
1T is simply matter OF sowing
varieties of each grain that can be left
standing In the field until ripe enough
to thresh,' he explains. This can cas-
lily be done, as regards wheat by using
the jenkins wheat, which, while rated
as No. in southern ATTITUDES, will
easily approach No. In this climate"
The machine, which has been stand
ing at the unloading platform Of the
N. F.. since Wednesday morning, is
quite a curiosity to the onlookers 1t
will cut q twenty foot swath when
drawn and with the care of four men
will prepare the grain at once for the
granary or market. When attached to
the big tractor with which Mr.. vorce
il doing his farming this year.it should
prove . drawing card down at the
Lower Valley.
Pressure will be brought to bear
upon It's owner to assure its exhibition
at the Interstate fair next month In
this city.

PARTIAL SETTLEMENT
Of ENGLISH STRIKE.
Riotous Proceedings Against Jewish
Storekeepers---Outcome Still
Uncertain.

Liverpool, Aug. "a partial
settlement OF the street car strike WAS
arranged today when the men in the
power houses were iuduced to return
10 work on promises that their griev-
ances would be rGnedied.
Negotiations are now in progress
with all other classes and it is expected
the entire strike will be declared off by
morning.
Newcastle, England, Aug. 23-The
executive council OF the railway unions
officially declared off the strike on the
Northeastern Railway system today,
and the men went back to work. This
action ratified the agreement reached
las. night at which the company prom
ised TO find places for all OF the strikers
but refused to dislodge men who re-
manned through the strike. That
question is to be disposed of by con.
ciliation board.
Ebbv Vale, England, Aug, %
Fearing renewal OF the ri ting among
the coal and iron miners tonight the
local authorities today made an urgent
request for more troops to the govern
ment
The rioting here has consisted for the
most part OF attacks on and the loo. .Dg
OF shops kept by Jews. The mining pop
ulation has complained for some time
that the Jewish storekeepers have kept
prices up TO the highest notch and that
Jewish landlords have been unusually
severe il increasing rents and compell-
ing payment The Jewish commun-
ity has appealed t. 1.-The home secretary
for protection.
The prospects OF a settlement OF the
street car strike faded when following
conference between Tom Mann anu
the other officials Of the labor fedora
ton, the officials of the street railway
company positively refused to relnState
any Of the former employees.
;. Mann and the other strike leaders
started at once for London and will de. )
mand that national strike be declared
to compel the companies to recede
from their present position and rem
state all former employees.

the crowd that gathered at
Chesterfield courthouse was slender, as
compared with the former attendance.
Beattie. his sunly and debonair de-
meanor unchanged, was brought out
from Richmond by Detective Scherer.
"A iue ride," be remarked, with
laugh as he left the automobile before
the courthouse. The temporary ner-
vousness that he showed when he was
arraigned on Monday h ad passed away
entirely, and he chatted cheerfully with
the detectives and the few spectators
who gathered about him on the little
portico of the courthouse.
Before today's session ends, sixteen
iurymen will have been placed in the
box. Four will be eliminated by per-
enptory challenge and then the twelve
men who will settle Beattie's fate will
be locked up until tomorrow morning.
No witnesses will be examined today
as all have been summoned for to-
morrow.
Thomas A. Hancock, the eighth
talesman examined today, was accept
ed as the thirteenth juror to try
Beattie for bis life. Hancock is about
40 years old and farmer.
Lewis Robertson, A, anotherIfarmer,
the very next talesnan examined, took
the fourteenth seat III the jury box.
Without two more iurymen ia be Sc
cured Judge Watson adjourned court
for the noon recess.
Special Prosecutor Wendenburg au-
nounced today that Thomas E. Owen,
uncle Of the murdered woman, and DR..
J. Wilbur Mercer, who we're the first
to see the body OF Mrs Beattie when it
was unloadei from Beattie's autouo
bile at the Owen home the night OF the
murder, would be put on the stand.
Wendenburg was confident that he
would be able to conclude his case ny
the end OF the week. This would leave
many OF the "a witnesses summoned by
the prosecution to testify only in re-
buital after the defense has put in It's
case.

The Methods of a Wise Mother,

CSssy Neglect MY mother buys a lot of premium soap
and saves the wrappers to get me new dress with
them because she says the boiling is awfuy hard on
them and turns them yellow"
Eva Spiekandspan-'' My, mother saves wrappers.
She saves the clothes by not boiling them. She uses
Fels-Naptha soap.
Anty Drudge Eva you certainly show good train
ing and the methods OF wise mother. Fes-Naptha
soap requires boiling to keep frocks white and look
ing new. And Cissy, tel your mother it's wiser to
save the clothes than save the wrappers.
A wise housekeeper would not try to
get along without sewing machine.
A wise housekeeper doesn't try to get
along without Fels-Naptha soap.
Why1
Because Fels-Naptha soap makes wash
ing easy. No hot fires, no boiling, no
houseful Of sitting steam, no wash boiler OF
scalding water endangering lives and limbs.
And when the washing's done there's
no yellow tinge in the clothes The white
things are snowy, the colored things are
unfaded, the Aannels and other woolens
are unshrunk
When you ssuse Fels-Naptha soap the
work is only about one-fourth as hard.
You put the clothes in cool or lukewarm
water-never hot-rub the Fels-Naptha on
them, roll them and let them soak for half
an-hour. Then rub lightly, rinse and hang
on the line.
Don't forget the saving to your own
health and good looks, too. If you wash
the Fels-Naptha way you don't have bruis-
ed dknuckles, steamed face and aching back.
After you've tried it once you will
never dream Of going back to the old way
OF washing.
