B|CKf0RD TRIAL
At WASHBURN

Washburn, n. D., June 26.-At IL: 80
the defense rested and an adjourn.
ment was taken.
The attempt of counsel for the de-
tense to draw statement from Bick-
ford on the stand that the Bowbells
bank certificates of deposit were fin
ally taken up and that the state lost
nothing brought an objection from the
state which was sustained. Bickford
admitted asking Olson to carry the
certificates for while as he was I'M
able to take them up but denied hav.
ing said anything about bad invest
ments
Mrs Bickford sweet faced and sad,
took the stand for moment to corrob
crate bit of her husbands unimport
ant testimony.
Fred Andrews Of Bowbells took the
stand to testify to Bickford's good
reputation at home. Counsel for the
state expressed willingness to con-
cede the defendants good reputation
and said, otherwise he would not
have been elected. Sen. H. H. Steele
testified to. Bickfords good reputa-
tion. Fred B. Hendrickson, former
representative, did likewise.
At the resumption of the trial to-
day, the cross examination of the de-
PENDANT by the state was resumed. 1t
was believed that this cross examina-
ton would occupy several hours as
the state had intimated as much when
the question of adjournment Saturday
was under consideration by Judge
Crawford, who is sitting for Judge
Winchester.
The jurors appeared thankful for
the respite from tho heat and from
the rehearsal OF the tedious details
of the voluminous business Of the
state treasurer's Office which has &C.
cupied most OF the time in the trial
so far.
Most of the 1870 exhibits already
offered in evidence are still in sight,
but it is believed that not many of
them Will have to be gone over again
except in the final arguments OF the
counsel The defense has not yet
given out any statement as to the
number Of witnesses it will produce,
but ii is not believed that the mum
Der will be any greater than that
used by the stateIt will be remem-
bered that the state used but ten of
the TWENTY-FIVE subpoenaed, suddenly
resting.
Most of the witnesses, jurors and
attorneys in attendance at the trial
who could not reach their own homes
to spend Sunday took advantage OF
the opportunity to spenda day in the
capital city.

five HUNDRED ATTENDED
EDITORIAL CONVENTION

Courier, who displayed unusual abr
ity and wit.
W. A. Stickley, publisher of the
kenmare Journal read an interesting
paper on High and Low Newspaper
Standards '1Stick'' took numerous
whacks at the legal traps, which on
account of the indisposition Of the
editors to give the public their mon
ey's worth, are disgrace to the pro-
fession. North Dakota is fast becom-
ing rid OF such papers and the average
is raising right along.
At this time a telegram was sent
by the association to Mrs Stickley,
who is seriously i'll in Minneapolis,
expressing the sympathy of the mem.
bers and hoping for her early recov.
cry.
After the president had appointed
the committee on resolutions con-
sisting of Editors Brewer. MUMMY and
Haskell an adjournment was taken
until 2 o'clock.
In the afternoon, the president gave
the Representatives from Minot ana
Valley City an opportunity to invite
the members to those places for the
next midsummer meeting, although
the place of meeting will not be &C.
lected until next winter at the Fargo
convention.
Halvor l.. HalYorson, president Of
the city commission of Minot spoke.
briefly of tMinot and had the vote
been taken then and there, Minot
would have won by very large ma
jority.
F., E. Packard then spoke in be-
half of Valley City. Minot is certain
of getting one of the conventions
next year
G. A. Wales, of Portal, who has
made quite a study of the cost system,
read an interesting paper on this
system as applied to small shop. Mr..
Wales some months ago raised his ad-
vertising rates to Is cents an inch
and is not sorry.
James Gray, editor OF the Minnea-
polls Journal, delivered an excellent
address The editor showed plainly
that he is an insurgent by the way
he boosted La Toilette and others.
Jesse B. Burgster. editor of the
Jamestown Capital. then spent an
hour and half explaining the cost
system. Mr.. Burgster understands this
system in every detail and his adj
dress was most beneficial.
During the afternoon a reception
was held for the ladies' at the Com
mercial club, where refreshments
were served. Miss Boydon, the accom-
plished daughter Of Col. and Mrs.
Boydon Of the Lisbon Free Press,
gave a nhmber of enjoyable readings.
At the conclusion Of the reception, the
ladies were taken around the city in
autos.
That night free vaudeville show
was provided for the visitors at the
Grand theatre and a bali was held at
the skating rink afterwards, which
was attended by fully 500.
The next morning, the visitors were
taken to the Chautauqua grounds, six
miles south Of Devils Lake, in autos,
where splendid repast was served

Editorial TickIers.

'atick" and Jack Char,nley, the
only editors in the gooseneck, were
there with the green ribbons on, a
foot or more long. Both are unsteady
inclined. Sticks plays the trombone,
while Charmley beats out of the
bass drum. He also carried a little
pail of water, and fooled many of his
friends who thought it was filled with
amber fluid
provided with badges showing the
picture of Satan himself.
Mrs. Page OF the Devils Lake lnlel
Ocean, was the busiest woman Al the
convention She had charge VI the
registration and the badges. This
bright newspaper woman DIT once be-
came most popular with everybody.
She's hustler and is making the
Inter-Ocean one of the most readable
papers of the state.
Miss Leda Mansfield represented
the sMinot Reporter Il am not an
editors wife" appeared in conspic-
uous letters on her badge
Kernel Brewers Mexican hat was
left at home, much to the disappoint-
ment OF many who went especially
to see how he looked with it on.
The wife of Editor Burgster was
voted one Of the most beautiful WO-
men at the convention.
The Sharon editor was there. He
has the distinction of being the only
newspaper man who has a baseball
nine of his own. He has nine fine
children, but didn't bring them all
along
Editor Rozencranz, of OskaIoosa.
Ia, who was visiting his sister at
Devils Lake, was much interested in
the convention.
The editors have concluded that the
new Great Northern hotel at Devils
Lake is going to be money maker
if they keep UP the pace that has been
set-and the public continues to gle
1t patronage
The picture of the devil did not
appear on Bishop Cowell's badge. He
objected.
The editors want to come to Minot
for the midsummer convention. a
boom was started for Holbein for
president in 1912. He's making such q
good secretary that the boys will pro-
badly want to re-elect him to that 20
sition.
Mike Breen, who edits paper at
WoTord and plays smear on the side,
has made a pot OF money during the
past five years and says he hopes to
spend the remainder of his days at
Wolford. why, it seems like / have

SPRING CHICKENS 90 CENTS

It pays to raise poultry anywhere.
and especially in North Dakota,
where one has as fine q market as
Minot is. Some choice spring chick

Velva, were sold in Minpt Saturday
for SO ents each They were sold
readily to customers at 80 cents.
