JURY Term OF
U. S. COURT CLOSES

The jury term OF the U. s. court
ended this morning after having been
In session with the grand jury for
five days and the petit jury since
June 10.
The term has been rather a dong
one with few civil actions coming up
for a jury trial and a large number OF
criminal actions. Only two of the al
legged criminals were tried before a
jury, all Of the others either pleading
guilty when they were arraigned. or
having their cases continued to other
terms of the court.
The feature OF the jury term of the
court was the trial Of Samuel New
man charged with the murder OF his
cousin, Roscoe Conklin on the Fort
Berthold reservation. After a fierce
battle in which some OF the best legal
work ever produced here was displayed.
Newman was acquitted Of the charge.
This morning the court heard the
second criminal case that demanded
a jury trial. 1t was that of william
Jones OF Devils Lake charged with
selling liquor to Indians
Four Indians testified against Jones
to the ffect that he had sold them
liquor. Evidence showed that he had
received liquor by express from ST.
Louis and East Grand Forks Jones
denied the fact that he had sold In
dams liquor, but stated that he had
secured some liquor at a drug store
for white men.
The fury did not deliberate the
case but few moments and returned
a verdict of guilty against Jones. Judge
Amidon imposed a sentence on him OF
sixty days In the Cass county jail ana
800 fine Judge Barnett. assistant u
s. attorney prosecuted the case for the
government.
Jones is colored man, 10 years old
although looking much older and was
employed in a railroad station at
Devils Lake as a porter.

WATKINS TELLS OF
LAW ENFORCEMENT WORK.

Dickinson, n. D., June 2s.-To The
Forum: have just returned from a
trip of investigation of the northeast
ern part of the state to determine the
conditions as TO the violations of the
liquor laws, meet those interested I'm
law enforcement, present the plans Of
the North Dakota Enforcement league,
and select the working eommitte for
each community.
In many towns the sale of liquor is
reduced to a minimum, while I'm some
few others there are one or more blind
pigs doing business, including few
drug stores that are selling illegally by
misusing their permit and occasionally
one is even selling some that is not
recorded on the books.
The blind pigger usually has some
rules which he thinks will shield him
and which he thinks is a very cute
evasion and that none know that he lis
selling, except few friends he trusts
find no difficulty in locating these
places, and in fact have within three
hours after arriving known practically
every place in town.
We find many people anxious to
have the law enforced and willing to
cooperate in any way possible and
are introducing the same system that
has operated so successfully I'm the
slope country. With the cooperation
the people will give, this plan is ire
sistible. We expect in the not far
distant future to receive at our office a
full report of the violators of the law
every week. With this knowledge we
can act intelligently and cooperate
with the local people in the getting OF
evidence.
II you are interested In your local
community, write me- but be careful to
get the facts. DO not expect an ans
wer only on very important and press
ing matters, as our Office Is not yet
established and the whole machinery
is yet to be put In operation.

PROPOSE BONUS
FOR FIRST ROAD

Shafer Record: Never have condi-
lions been more favorable for a bump
err crop in Mckenzie county than they
are right now. The farmers are con-
fronted with the problem of marketing
an immense crop. Outsiders do not
realize what this means under existing
conditions, with no railway in the
county with ferry tolls between the
farm and the railway, and with a
long, weary haul over poor roads.
1t costs 25 cents in some parts of
the county for each bushel of grain,
simply to transport it to railway. Con-
slider what this means.
Two years ago we made a close
estimate of the production of grain
in this county, based on the tally
books of the owners of threshing ma
chimes throughout the county. Judg-
ing from our investigation made at
that time, the yield Of Mckenzie
county this year. should be close to
100000 bushels of the various kinds
of grain Suppose 1t costs the farm
ers on an average throughout the
county is cents per busheI more to
get grain to market than it would If
there was railway through the
county. On 100000 bushels that
would amount to S750,000. That
would represent the saving in one
year on the outgoing freight to say
nothing Of the amount saved on
freight on groceries, hardware, lum-
Der and implements which we buy an
nually. Mckenzie county farmers
can well afford to hang up a nice fat
bonus to be paid to the first railway
which traverses the county.
In another way the gain from a
railway would be immense. We refer
to the increase in land values. SUP
pose there are 1000 real estate own
ers in the county, each owning 100
acres of land. The coming of a rail-
way, would increase land values at
least $40 per acre on The average
throughout the county. That means
an increase on the 1000 farms OF
$3,200,o0o.
Business men have suggested that
each land owner in the county sub
scribe $50 to be paid to the first rail-
way traversing the county; or a purse
amounting. to 100000 No one need
hesitate about making the subscrip-
LtCAts IOTS l4lCEG Will ne ITO
raising the money IL the railway
comes Other methods of attracting
the attention of railway managers
have been suggested.
The main point is that it is up to us
to advertise the county sufficiently so
that railway managers will see fit
to build now instead of later. AS long
as we have no railway, big monopolies
will not be likely to give any one in
Mckenzie an agency, but we will be
compelled to contribute our implement
trade to the building up of WiIliston.
Railway managers always have on
file plans for the building of dozens
of railway branches as soon as they
can get to them. The question Is
which one is to build first We hope
there will be found in Mckenzie
county citizens with enough initiative
and determination to convince these
managers that we are next.

MITES KILLING
GRASSHOPPERS

During the last few days the fnd-
ing Of many dead grasshoppers in
the fields nave lead to an examination
Of the cause Of the determination OF
the much dreaded pest. The investi-
cation shows that mites are killing
off the grasshoppers.
The little insects are found In great
numbers under the wing of the grass
hoppers just where the wing joins
on to the body of the animal. 1t ap-
pears that the little insects bury their
fangs into the body of the grass
hopper and slowly kill it.
Yesterday one of the grasshoppers
having a large number Of the lice on
IL, was taken into the cigar store of
Jack Thorne where an examination
Of the condition Of the grasshopper
was made.
The grasshopper appeared to be
perfectly lifeless but when the little
lice were shaken and pulled off the
animal began to show signs of life
again and seemingly recovered from
its deathlike stuper.
The mites have been able to work
a great deal during the recent damp
and cold weather. At this time the
grasshopper jumps about very little
and the timer insect can get in it's
deadly work while the animals are on
the ground. However in the warm
weather the hopping about of the
grasshopper gives him good chance
to shake off the little red destroyer.
Farmers have reported that many
Of the grasshoppers are being found
dead in the field, and the loss of life
In the grasshopper tribe is attributed
to the work of the little red mites
Three years ago this same mite
struck North Dakota and rid the farm
ers of many of their grasshoppers
during the season. With a little more
damp and cold weather it is believed
that the vast majority of the grass
hoppers will be killed.

Chicago Gessin.

Chicago, June 2S.--It looked to the
wheat traders last night as If the bull
leaders had made the advance to 91c
for July by buying through one set Of
houses and selling on the advance
through another. Houses which have
the largest lines of July wheat led the
buying and the short interests were
larger than expected. 1t is said that
the bull leaders are likely to make
heavy deliveries of cash wheat in the
Srst week In July Should they fail
to take it back the trade will be bene
fitted, as the big holding has been a
menace because on every bulge buyers
have been filled up. 1t is said that
all that the local shorts were in at the
close and many Of the professionals
were long. Inter- Ocean.
