dressed another appeal to the powers,
say there is stin time to prevent the

enthusiasm in all parts of the country.
The impression prevails in diplomatic

Taft's Two Days Campaign in Iowa
Comes TO Close

Ottumwa, Ia. Sept 3O.-President
Taft ended his two days tour OF Iowa
here as he had begun ft-with a speech
on the tariff. To an audience which
filled a large tent and gave him the
closest attention he has had. the presi-
dent, in a conversational tone. and in
an informal manner, stated anew the
position he had taken with reference
to the tariff bills he vetoed. Mr. Taft
made no bid for applause; no attempt
at oratory. He took the audience int
his confidence and stated his case with
scarcely a pause.
The crowd was not a demonstratfvs
one. It cheered the president when he
began and again when he finished.
There was occasional applause in be-
tween, the most spontaneous and pro-
longed occurring when Mr.. Taft ex

nothing in the attitude of the Turkish
empire justifies. The porte appeals to
the peaceful and humanitarian and
friendly sentiments Of the powers to
assist in convincing Italy of the con-
ciliatory intentions of Turkey and 50

and grief to thousands of families.
The government has asked the United

spondents.
In an action to quiet title to quar-
ter section of land in Ward county,
defendants assert rights based on GER
tain foreclosure proceedings by adver.
tisement and a sheriff's deed issued
pursuant thereto. The mortgage was
given to secure the payment of the
sum of $500 only. Prior to the com.
mencement proceedings, plaintiff, in
good faith, offered to pay the sum due
which was refused, but he failed to
technically comply with the statute in
making a tender or in keeping such
tender good by subsequently deposit

caused foreclosure proceedings to be
commenced by the publication Of no

when there were newspapers in the

evident purpose of keeping plaintiff in
ignorance of such foreclosure proceed

the premises were struck off to the
holder of the mortgage for the paltry
sum due, with costs, she evidently be.

new STUNTS IN
Wolf HUNTING

Osnabrock, N. D., March 27.-In
crossing the Big Pembina on his way
to Walhalla the other day, Hans Brat
lie of Osnabrock had a chance to put
in a few new stunts in the way of
hunting. A big timber wolf crossed
the road just ahead of his team and
in trying to jump the fence next the
road got caught and tangled up in the
barbed wire. Bratlie had no gun so
it was a case of 60 for the beast with
natures weapons, which he did and
in trying to get the toe hold managed
to get a good grip on the VOLTS tail.
The wolf then made few hurried cir
cles around Mr.. Bratlie's head and
landed head first kerplunk in the
sleigh box, dead as a door nail, and
Hans con,lnued on his way to Wal
Halla after filling and lighting his
corn cob.

AUTOS ARE MADE
FROM SCRAP PILE

Hazelton, N. D., March 27.-Last
summer an Emmons county man man.
ufactured an auto from parts taken
from old binders, mowers, buggies
and other farm implements, and the
machine did tolerably good service,
until he was able to provide himself
with one of the tailor made" variety
This year a Hazelton man has show.
ed us new one in auto manufacturing
by mounting his little farm pump en-
CINE in front of the dash board of his
buggy. The machine is driven by
means of belt which runs from the
engine to shaft in the center of the
buggy, which in turn is connected to
the rear wheel with a sprocket chain.
A steering gear has been put on the
rig, and taken all together it is a clev-
er piece of mechanism.
Just how much OF a success the
new venture will prove yet remains
to be seen, as it has not been given
a fair test.

Death ON THE PRAIRIE

Perth, N. D., March 27.-The county
coroner was notified that dead man
had been found in Howell township
lying on the prairie. This official
forthwith went to Perth where the
assistance of Marshal Bulman and
Harry Harbaugh was secured and the
party drove out and found the re-
mains as reported.
The dead man was one Peter Erick-
son, widower. without any perman.
ent home, and although he had a
daughter married and living in that
vicinity, had been working at odd
jobs for different people during the
winter.
From the condition of the body and
by and from the evidence of the per-
sons examined, the jury concluded
that the deceased had been taken
with a sudden attack of heart failure
induced by over exertion, and in his
weakened condition had laid down to
rest and had fallen and had been un-
able to again rise and had miserably
persisted during the night.

year.old son of D. 8. Baughman of

ploded in such manner that the boy
received the full charge in his right

ATTEMPT TO BURN
BOWbELIS SCHOOL

Bowbells, N. D., March 27.-An at
tempt was made to burn Bowbells
school building. A bottle of gasoline
and some old papers were used to
start the fire.
Papers we're piled in one corner at
the lower back door, saturated with
gasoline and set on fire. A hole about
four by fourteen inches was burned
and it remains a mystery how the fire
went out after getting so we'll started.
A reward of 500 has been offered
for information leading to the arrest
and conviction of the party or parties
who comitted the crime. This school
building is one of the finest in the
state and would have been great
loss to Bowbells and vicinity had it
burned.

ed in such mortgage was not exer-

null and void.
The person having the right to ex.
ercise power of sale in mortgage
is bound to exercise the utmost good
faith and fair dealing towards the
mortgagor or owner of the premises,
and a mere technical or literal CON-

The fact of the apparent gross in
