REPORT. OF BOARD
IS INTERESTING
BIENNIAL REPORT OF GAME AND
FISH BOARD IS cRED1TABLE
PUBLICATION.

The biennial report of the state
game and fish board of control is just
off the presses, according to the Grand
Forks Herald and the first consign-
ment was sent to Bismarck yesterday.
This is not only the first report of the
board under the new law, but it is the
first extensive report made on game
conditions generally in the state and
is a decided credit to the board both as
10 matter and form. The cover Of the
book shows North Dakota g great game
bird, the prairie chicken, in natural
colors, and the specimen from which
the picture was taken is an especially
fine one. The book contains an even
hundred pages of reading matter and
cuts attractively arranged. The cuts
show the different game birds fo the
state and hunting and fishing scenes.
There is a complete report Of the game
and fish board and tables giving other
statistical information of interest. The
report embodies the report of the
hoard by Secretary D. L. Armstrong,
the recommendations of the board, the
report of State Fish Commissioner
Capt. Main and the report of the bio
logical condition of water in the west
ern part of the state by Prof. Bran.
non Of the university.
The recommendations of the board
will be of special interest. For the
most aprt the game and fish law is
commended. Recommendation, how,
ever, is made that there be closed
season for deer in the state or that
no hunter shall shoot more than two
antlered deer. The board believes
that by requiring that only antlered
deer can be shot, the annual string OF
hunting accidents can bo at least to
considerable extent, avoided.

Further recommendation is made
that the trapping and fishing Licenses

appear in the office of the attorney
general in the capitol building where
Justice Pierce held court. Bickford ap-
peared the least concerned Of any Of
the little group assembled in the Office
of the attorney general. There was
one present at the hearing aside from
Bickford, the judge, couple of news
paper men and the employees of the at
torney general 3 office. Bickford, when
asked as to what was his desire as to
the preliminary disposition of the case,
asked what was best for him to do
and appeared entirely ignorant of what
procedure was necessary. After con.
siderable thought he stated that he
would like to have the case continued
until Thursday at 2 o'clock when he
would appear with his attorney and be
ready for the, hearing.
Admitted to Bail.
He was allowed to leave the room to
secure bail, which was placed at $1O,-
600. The hearing on the first warrant
was had at 5 O'Clock before Judge Per
r.y and practically the same procedure
was gone through with as in the first
hearing, except that Bickford asked
until Saturday at o clock to make an
appearance. His bonds were placed in
this case at $4,000.
The following bondsmen were secur-
ed for both cases: Henry Tatley, prop
rietor of the Grand Pacific hotel; F. o.
Hellstrom, warden Of the state peniten-
tiary; w. II. Mann, railroad commits
sioner; John A. johnson, farmer Of
Washburn; John Yegan, merchant; Bis
marck; 8. w. Bond, retired real estate
dealer and banker of Minot.
Friends Stand By Him.
Bickford has many influential friends
who will stand by him to the last
ditch.
The story of Bickford's trouble, OF
alleged trouble, has been current gos
sip for the past several months, but
as it was started during the heat of the
primary campaign little attention was
paid to it until it came to turning the
office over to his successor, when il
avs found that there were securities
to the amount of 100000 which coulG
not be realized upon. The claim il
freely made that Bickford has take1
thken the money and placed it in hi
own bank and loaned It out where hi
cannot call it in at short notice.
Is Political Deal.
Friends Of his have been busy for tn,
past few days trying to raise the none,
and it was stated upon the best of au
thority that most of it was in the cit,
in cold cash last night and the res
of it was expected here tonight.
Friends of Bickford and the forme
treasurer himself stated tonight tina
y the entire matter was political dea
and that matters were brought
head tonight because it was know
that the money would be replaced to
night and there would be more trou

Il, and Pope Brown third, with 6.
In the 26 four-unit counties Joe
and Pope Brown tied, with 48 units
each, while Russell limped in third,
with only 8.
The consolidated vote of the 80
large counties shows Joe Brown a
total of 60, Pope Brown "a and Rus
sell 90.
1t was practically a stand-off be-
tween the two Browns on thse 80
counties. Had anyone of the four or
slX-Vote counties carried by Joe
Brown gone the other way Pope
Brown would have led by margin
OF two or four votes on the big coun-
ties. Consequently it is easy to see
that Joe Brown won by the small
counties. His unit vote in the two
unit counties was 142, or II coun-
ties, against Pope Browns "a, or 27
counties. Joe Brown was about 2 y
times as strong in the small counties
as Pope Brown.
Russell ran poor third in both
the large vote and small vote coun-
ties. His entire strength thrown
to Pope Brown would still have left
Joe Brown So units in the lead.
Brown Got Half HOke Smith Counties
1t is interesting to compare Thurs
days results with the results of the
Hoke Smith-Joe Brown gubernato-
rial primary Of August, 1910, since
Joe Brown ran in both and Pope
Brown had the personal support of
HOke Smith in this years contest.
Joe Brown on Thursday carried 40
of So counties counties that went for
him last year. Pope BROWNE and Rus
sell took eight each of Joe Brown s
old counties, Joe Brown, last year,
also carried Macon county, on which
he and Pope tied Thursday. Joe
Brown on Thursday carried A coun-
ties that went for Hoke Smith in
1910. Pope Brown got 80 of the
old Smith counties and Russell 70.
In fact, Joe Brown got exactly half
Of the counties Thursday that Hoke
Smith carried last year and held two
thirds of his old counties.
Home Counties of the Candidates.
Governor Brown carried Cobb, his
home county, by nearly 500 plurali-
ty, over Pope Brown, and Jackson,
Judge Russell's home county, by a
plurality of more than 800. Pulas-
XII, Pope Browns home county, gave
him plurality of only 20 over Gov
ernor Brown, the vote being: Pope
Brown 4S2, Joe Brown 462, and Dick
Russell 1872. A majority of more
than 100 votes of the county were
cast against Pope Brown. Joe Brown
carried also Clark and Houston coun-
ties, in which Russell and Pope
Brown were reared and grew to man
hood.

Cruel Nor Lazy.

Cruel Nor Lazy.
There are about 100000 Indians
speaking $50 dialects now living in
the United States, declares Robert G.
Valentine, United tSates commission
er of Indian affairs
There were only about half a mil
lion Indians on this continent when
Columbus discovered it, continued
Mr.. Valentine. The tales of a new
land over-run with Indians were ex-
aggerations, no doubt
The Indians never occupied this
country. They merely roamed over
it, We estimate that war and dis
ease have reduced their numbers by
100000 only. Accurate figures will
never be obtained of course.
The Indian is not a cruel savage.
There has never been massacre un-
provoked by white aggression. The
Indian is not lazy, though most peo-
pie will gasp at this. Many Indians
have seemed lazy and apathetic be-
cause they found themselves unwill-
ing wards of the government The
necessity for work and their natural
pleasures had been taken from them.

ZemO Treatment.

Why should you continue to ex-
pertinent with salves, greasy lotions
and fancy hair dressings trying to
rid your scalp of germ life? They
can't do it because they can't pene-
trate to the seat of the trouble and
draw the germ life to the surface
of the scalp and destroy it.
Why not try proven remedy?
One that will do this. We have a
remedy that will rid the scalp of
germ life and in this way will cure
dandruff and itching scalp.
This remedy is ZEMO, a clean, re-
fined, penetrating scalp tonic that
goes right to the seat of the trouble
and drives the germ life to the sur
face and destroys it.
A shampoo with ZEMO (antisep-
tic SOAP and one application of
zEMO will entirely rid the scalp of
dandruff and scurf. Do not hesitate,
but get a bottle of ZEMO today. 1t
acts on a new principle and will do
exactly what we claim for it.

After many years experiment a

power on exposure to the sun during

1t becomes practical proposition
in tropical regions where plenty of

The LandIady of the Occidental.

The landlady Of the Occidental.
Keith had crossed at this point SO
frequently with cattle that, once hav-
ing his bearings, the blackness of the
night made very little difference.
Nevertheless, in fear lest her pony
might stumble over some irregularity,
he gave his own rein to Neb, and went
forward on foot, sgrasping firmly the
tired animals bit. 1t was long
stretch of sand and water extending
from bank to bank, but the water was
shallow, the only danger being that
of straying off from the more solid
bottom into quicksand. With tower
ing cottonwood as guide, oddly mis-
shapen and standing out gauntly
against the slightly lighter sky, the
plainsman led on unhesitatingly, until
they began to climb the rather sharp
uplift of the north bank. Here there
was a plain trail, pounded into smooth
ness by the hoofs Of cavalry horses
ridden down to water, and at the sum-
NIT they emerged within fifty yards OF
the stables.
The few lights visible, some station
airy, with others dancing about like
will-o'-the-wisps, revealed imperfectly
the contour of various buildings, but
Keith turned sharply to the right, anx-
ious to slip past without being chal-
lenged by a sentry. Beyond the brow
of the bluff other lights now became
visible. pickering here and there.
