SOCIAL CLUBS GAN
NOT Be CHARTERED
ORGANIZATIONS WHICH SELL
LIQUOR WILL NOT BE IN
coRPoRATED.

Bismarck, N. o.. oct. 7.-Occasion-
ally the secretary OF state receives ap-
plications for charter for club or
private associations, the purpose OF
which Is to maintain d social resort
in which liquors and cigars are kept
for the use Of the members. Two
such applications have been received
and the legality OF granting a charter
being in doubt Attorney General MIL
Ter was asked for and has rendered
an opinion as follows
You have submitted TO thim ONCE
the articles of Incorporation of the
- association, from which is ap-
pears that the purpose OF this associa-
ton is to provide q meeting place for
members of the association where
they may keep and have their liquors.
cigars and refreshments. We are
asked to advise IL a charter may be
issued to the corporation, the light OF
the disclosure made by the articles.
Section 416S, r. @. 1905, is to the
erect that private corporations may be
formed for any purpose for which in
dlviduals may lawfully associate
themselves together. Section ssr7
provides that every person who shall
directly or indirectly keep or main
tain. by himself or by associating or
combining with others. or who shall
In any manner aid, assist or abet. in
Keeping or maintaining any club room
or other place in which any intoxicat-
ing liquors is received or kept for
the purpose Of use, gift, barter or sale,
etc. shall be guilty of misdemeanor.
The purpose Of the association ask
Ing to be Incorporated Is undoubtedly
to maintain q club room such as is
prohibited expressly by the section
referred to. In other words, the pur-
pose for which the incorporators are
associating themselves together is un-
lawful in this state, and a charter
should therefore be refused"

OF $50 BUSHELS
TO THE ACRE.

Devils Lake N. d., oct. gil.
#. Ray. who owns farm in Min
newaukon township, says he is
prepared to make affidavit to the
fast, and prove to the, entire sat
isfactfon OF any fair minded man,
that he raised twelve rows of po-
tatoes which yielded at the rate
OF $50 Bushels per acre. He says.
that a large number OF them weigh
ed over three pounds each, bushels
and bushels weighed over two
pounds each and he has a few
which weigh over four pounds
each. One OF the larger potatoes
makes a mess larger than the or
binary family win eat. Mr.. Ray
says that heretofore when he read
of the big claims of seed houses
for certain varieties OF vegetables
or grain. he could not believe the
statements to be true. and that he
never believed and could not be
made to believe short of actual
demonstration, that II would be
possible 10 grow even 600 bushels
of potatoes per acre.

CROCKARD STARTS
ANOTHER PAPER
PROGRESSIVE SLOPE EDITOR HAS
STRING OF FOUR GOOD
WEEkLIEs.

Bismarck, NJ D., oct, 27-Among
the visitors in the city Wednesday
afternoon and evening was Editor G.
H. crockard. Mr.. Crockard cannot be
associated with any one particular
paper when referring to him as edi-
tor, as he now owns a string of four
thriving papers in the slope country,
and all Of them are good boosters
for this section Of the state.
Mr.. Crockard's latest acquisition in
the newspaper world is The Leith In
dex, No l, of the first volume, making
its appearance last week. 1t is eight
pages, all home print, and judging
from the amount OF advertising con-
tanned therein is assured Of the sup
port OF the business men. Leith is q
town of less than 100 popula-
ton, but the paper would be a credit
to a town OF over 1000. Crock
ards other papers are The Douglas
Herald, The New England Post and
The Elgin Times.

SOMEWHAT MIXED.

Bismarck Tribune: The many
friends of Editor w. d. Packard
OF The Rolla Herald were no doubt
greatly surprised to learn that the
active newspaper man had suffer-
ed mental collapse and removed
from the scene Of activities to
sanitarium. But the surprise to the
gentlemen's friends could not have
been greater than that OF Mr..
Packard himself. The published
statement Of the affair. which
came over the telephone. was as
erroneous as II Is unfortunate, for
1t develops that Mr.. Packard is In
possession OF all his mental facul-
ties and Is grinding out copy with
his old time clearness and gusto.
The affair arose through q confu-
sion Of names. 1t is the editor Of
The Raleigh Herald instead OF The
Rodla Herald, who for a time lost
his mental equilibrium and was
placed In q hospital at Mandan.
Unfortunate individual is G. III.
Knight instead OF w. ID. Packard.
| These mistakes are unfortunate
but unavoidable and nobody will
understand this better than the
newspaper men whose names are
involved.
The Tribune admits It's mistake
and offers an apology.

COUNTERFEIT
MONEY FOUND

Sherwood. N. D.. Oct. 27.--As C. g.
Miller was driving to town from his
home two miles north he found a small
bag containing 200 counterfeit quar-
ters on the roadside near the t. r..
McFarlane farm. Since then II has
been learned that some OF the .coun-
terfeit coin had been passed at sever
al business places in town during last
week, but no one remembers from
whom they got 1t.
At this season OF the year the north
west is overrun with characters of ali
kinds and it Is the general belief here
that the money discovered was being
worked OF by some member OF a coun-
terfeiting gang, who visited this To-
cality, and that he either lost the
goods or became scared for some reas-
on or other and dropped them.

This is the age Of substitution, and

of the fact that for thirty years Lydia
