And never toots q horn.

And works Thousand tricks

Plan Frustrated.

The following article appeared in the
Fargo Forum of last Sunday under a
Monango date line:
IA bold plan to entice 16-year-old
girl by Harry Fait, who has relatives
living here, was frustrated yesterday
morning.
The girl, Edna Ellickson, was stop
ping in town with the Con Jensvold
family and when they arose in the
morning a note was found notifying
them of her departure. She had been
seen at the 500 depot. Acting on this
officers were notified at Merricourt,
Kuhn and other towns to take her from
the train but the conductor took hand
and managed to bluff everybody until
the train reached Napoleon. Here the
train was searched by Banker Clast K.
Mork. and she was taken into the custo-
dy Of the sheriff and held awaiting the
arrival of her father.
Fait, who bears a somewhat unfavor-
able reputation and who it has been
rumored has another family, was leay-
ing at the same hour over the Milwau-
kee and Northern Pacific, expecting to
meet the child at Bismarck, but he was
held until the girl was located, after
which he took his departure hurriedly,
supposedly for South Dakota.
The girl Belongs to a splendid family
and this attempt to lead her into q life
of white slavery is liable yet to make
the man in the case very serious trouble.
The matter of the active part taken BY
the 500 line conductor has been re.
ported to the 500 officials.

MAazoa LESLIE. oAKEs.

MAR1ON LESLIE, CAKES.
The following method was pursued in
growing the prize-winning corn that
won q schoaarship in the North Dakota
agricultural college. This contest was
conducted by our county superintendent
and three scholarships were awarded
for three standard varieties. The land
was piowed in spting and narrowed
twice. Then I took the garden rake
and made the surface fine, removed the
clods, and planted the corn May 10.
After it came un It was cultivated
and narrowed once with the team, but
other culture was done by hand with
the hoe, wheel hoe and garden rake.
The ground was worked after every
heavy rain In order to break the crust
and form a dust mulch. Work did not
stop when the crop was knee-high, but
tillage continued until the stalks began
to set ears. The soil blanket prevented
evaporation and my success was due
more to good culture than to any other
one factor. Northwest Farmstead.

PRESIDENT TAFT "
WILL Be DEFEATED
Samuel G. Blythe, the Great
Political Writer, Says So
After Close Study.
West Is Decidedly Against
President Can He Solidify
the Party Again?

washington, ". ", november HDI0.-
That President Taft will be defeated if
given another nomination in 1912, is
the conclusion reached by Samuel G.
Blythe, political expert for the Satur-
day Evening Post. Mr.. Blythe's
opinion. which appears in the current
issue Of his paper, is the result Of a
careful investigation Of political condi-
tions in nearly every state ia, the Union,
and his investigations carried him over
more miles that did the recent cam
paign trip of President Taft. His first
articles which appeared in the Novem-
Der 25th issue, deals with political con-
ditions in the West. What he found in
that section of the country is told in q
summary in the concluding paragraphs
of his article.
IF conditions remain as they are"
says Mr.. Blythe, (which is more than
likely, and if Wilson. for example is,
nominated against Taft-or any other
candidate for whom the republicans
have a friendly feeling -Mr- Taft will
carry very few OF the states have in
cluded in this summary. He will carry
Utah and Wyoming without question,
and probably Nevada. He will lose
California, and he will lose Montana
and Colorado. The chances strongly
favor his losing Oregon and Washing
ton. II the Aormons are strong
enough he win carry Idaho. He will
lose Arizona and will probably carry
New Mexico. Assuming that cendi-
tions remain about as they now are,
Mr.. Taft will be hard put to it to carry
Kansas against q man like Wilson, and
will lose North Dakota, and, likely as
not, South Dakota. He will have des-
perate troubles in Nebraska and be in
most difficult ease in Iowa and Mime
sofa. The chances are against him in
all three states unless the miracle
works out ard opinion shifts to the
other side.
''Mr. Taft is scheduled to do every
thing in his power to solidify his
shattered party. His pursuit. Of the
Trusts and Trust-makers is to be more
active. Some more Of the big men are
to be indicted il possible. He will come
out against lynching, ct ecteria, to help
along with the negroes. He will con-
tinue on world arbitration and universal
peace. He will overlook no bets; but
