BUTTE TO ACT AS
JUDGE FOR COWAN

Bismarck, n. D., March 3-Last night
Governor Burke appointed c. w. Buttz
of Minnewaukon, as temporary judge
OF the Second judicial district to fill
Judge COwan's place on the bench until
after the impeachment trial in the
senate. During the time charges of
crimes and misdemeanors have been
filed against the jurist by the house of
representatives, he is temporarily sus-
pended from office. The statement
published in certain newspapers that
Judge Cowan is now impeached, is
erroneous, for he is not impeached I'M
til after an adverse decision is rend-
cred by the state, should such be the
case.
Acting Judge Buttz is the son Of Mai.
G. w. Buttz and is we'll known in the
Second judicial district. He has been
here while the charges against Judge
Cowan were pending in the house.

did not permit much debate, as he en-
deavored to get the calendar cleaned
up as nearly as possible, though he did
not check any necessary discussion.
The house passed a number Of bills.

erably different from the senate bill

BIG IMPETUS TO
CORN RAISING
PRIZES OFFERED BY FIRST MA.
TloNAL BANK OF FARGO AND
FARM STOCK AND HOME CAUSE
CAKES JOURNAL TO URGE BUS
MESS MEN TO GET BUSY.

Cakes Journal: The business men
Of the city OF cakes have one of the
best opportunities ever offered them,
and especially at this time, in the way
Of getting the farmers of this county
interested in corn contests. The First
National bank OF Fargo is Offering ST.
600 in cash, while The Farm, Stock and
Home of Minneapolis is offering $500
also in cash for the best corn raised
in the state of North Dakota. Why
could not the business men get real
busy once for a change and combine
with these two institutions in making
the plum much larger one. 1t it is to
the interest of the First National bank
Of Fargo and The Farm, Stock and
Home of Minneapolis to get the farm
ers of this state to pay more atten-
ton to corn raising, we do not see any
reason why 1t is not a double interest
to this immediate vicinity to let the
farmers know that they are with them
and want them to raise corn, and lots
Of it, until about all we know is corn,
corn, corn. There is no reasonable ex-
cuse why Dickey county can not carry
off both of those prizes and why not =?
We business men of Oakes-get busy
for the best corn raised in 1911. Where
is there a county in the state that has
better soil, better farmers, more rain,
more energy in it's business men, more
of the hustling qualities that are the
backbone Of a community than right
here in the best county in the state
Dickey county? Do not wait until the
last minute to get busy for this is the
appointed time to. get in your work
The year 1911 is going to be hummer
as far as crops are concerned in this
state, and there is no use in waiting
for some one else, so get busy, Mr.
Business Man, it is up to you, you will
reap the benefit, and the man that
should be after the farmer at al times
to get him to see why he should get
down to diversified farming. 1t is get
ting past the time when you can farm.
one piece of land year in and year out
and raise nothing but wheat. it mas
come to where the road divides, and
the man that farms right is the one that
is going way ahead. He does not be-
long to the years gone by, but his past
years Of experience have taught him
that If he progresses at all he must
be the progressor. 1t is also up to the
farmer to raise the corn. And we are
quite sure that the business men of
this city will get together and offer
some handsome prizes. 1t would be
a good stunt to get all the towns in
the county to go in and put up big
cash prizes and make it a county affair.

II is declared unofficially that the Raj
