RINOT REPORTER
CHANGES HANDS
C. A.. JOHNSON, POLITICIAN, NOW
OWNER OF THE MlNoT
r...@. REPORTER.

Minot, N. D., Aug. SC. A. john
son is the new owner of The Minot
Daily & Weekly Reporter.
A deal transferring the paper from
Dorr H. Carroll to MI. Johnson has
been closed. BY the terms Of the
agreement Mr.. johnson becomes the
owner of The Reporter at once, but
he will not become actively identlfled
with the management Of the paper
for a few days.
Negotiations for the transfer have
been in progress for several weeks.
Dorr H. Carroll retires from the news
paper business to devote his time TO
the practice Of law and to the Roose-
welt campaign in this section Of the
state.
Mr.. Carroll is a member Of the exc
cutiVe committe of the new Roose-
welt party, and his duties in his con-
nection together with his law practice
and other business are taking SO much
of his time, that he considered 1t adj
visable to dispose of his newspaper
property. Mr.. Carroll has been very
successful in his management of he
paper and the only eas for the
change in ownership is the desire of
Mr.. Carroll to exert his energies in
other directions.
By a strange coincidence MT.
son comes into possession of The Re-
porter just fifteen years after he dis
posed Of it in 1897. Mr.. Johnson pur-
chased The Ward County Reporter
from J.. L. Cotton in 1892, disposing
Of it at the end of five years.
Mr.. Johnson is one of the most sue
cessful business men in the northwest.
He is a pioneer of northwestern North
Dakota, and has played a prominent
part in the upbuilding of this section.
His acquaintance with the newspaper
business, his large circle Of personal
friends, his influence, in state affairs
and his reputation for business fnteg-
rity all assure him a most successful
career in his new enterprise.

MANDAN HAS A
POLICE SCANDAL

Mandan, N. D.. Aug. 3.-Mandan
don't like to take a back seat to any
old place on the map, so while New
York City is probing their police
scandal, President Foran and the city
commissioners are springing new sem
sations every. day in the police de-
partment of this city.
President Foran yesterday filed a
complaint with the city attorney, as
a private citizen, against Charles
Reynolds, as chief Of police and Mike
Knoll as policeman M hen Official
ly suspended them from the force
awaiting the hearing that will have to
come up within ten days. He APP
of police and John Bambury as night
policeman. Both men have been
acting as the presidents special po-
lice for the past month,
In his complaint he charges that
Charles Reynolds and Mike Knoll, as
police officers of Mandan, have per-
mitted persons to maintain and keep
places where persons were permitted
to esort and did resort for the pur-
pose of wagering money on games of
chance, and where persons did wager
money upon games of chance. He al
so alleges that, Charles Reynolds while
a police officer of the city did
himself frequent these places and
participate in the gambling.
He further alleges that the two
police officers permitted the sale of,
Intoxicating liquors to be carried on
in the city contrary to law, and per-
mitted people to maintain other I'M
lawful businesses. b
He charges. the two officers with
misfeasance, malfeasance and non
feasance in their respective offices
and with incompetency to fulfill the
same and with fragrant disregard of
public duty in the exercise thereof.
In the notices Of suspension served
upon Charles Reynolds and Mike
Knoll. the president states:
Whereas, a resolution duly and
regularly offered and passed by the
city commission, a petition, signed by
a great many citizens, business and
professional men Of the city, and did
by said resolution impose upon the
undersigned the duty and obligation
Of complying with the request there
in made, and therefore as president
of the city commission he finds 1T
necessary in order to arrive at the
condition sought for to suspend the
two police"
A week ago Monday night the city
commission passed q resolution drop
ping the two special police ap-
pointed by President Foran and
George Richie as regular police, and
the resolution was to take effect on
Aug. 1. The action taken yester-
day by the president is undoubtedly
| his reply to the action taken by the
board.
Chief Reynolds and Policeman
| Knoll have quit work in compliance
with the orders of the president and
will await hearing. In all probability
| there will be some excitement due In
the very near future. In the mean
time Mandan is having its share OF
] police notoriety.

Professor Martin told US how to
judge dairy cows.
Mr.. White told us more about silos
and ensilage.
Professor Borchert told us to plan
our farm buildings and farm yards to
better advantage.
Mr.. Peck, Wednesday morning, told
us how to manage a farm to the best
advantage.
At 5 p. m. Clifford willis, a college
chum of Mr.. Center's, spoke to us.
He told us that we could not farm
successfully without brain work. as
III fathers did, but must use head
too. He also told us that our school
ing was very valuable.
Governor Burke told us THAI the only
way to make land valuable was to
make it productive. He said North
Dakota land was better than the aver
age. He gave. to prove his point, the
statement of people who have been
away from North Dakota and return
ed. We all know what they are. After
the talk he shook hands with each one
of us, invited us to come to see him
at Bismarck if we happened to be there
while he is.
Thursday, Professor Richards told
us about the judging and good points
of a draft horse.
Professor Shepperd told us different
cuts of beef and how to select cattle
for dairy and beef. The principal
things we want in a dairy cow are
vitality, good digestive, assimilative
and nervous systems, muscles and
milk making organs.
Thursday afternoon MI. Cooper told
us that we should not try to farm un.
less we were fitted for it, but that If we
were fitted for it, we should get the
possible education for it before we be-
gan, or we would fair. Also that the
farmer of the future will have to be
a business man as well.

Friday the lectures were on the SUBJ

Friday the lectures were on the SUBJ
jects pertaining to farm machines.
The fair exhibits are so numerous
that any attempt to mention all would
take a week, so l will just write of a
few which particularly interested me.
The agricultural building is by far
the most important. It contains the
vegetable exhibits, apairy exhibits,
pure seed exhibit, which has samples
Of plant diseases, and a wooden
trough which was used to treat flax
seed with formaldehyde, (that took
my eye,) models showing diseases of
horses, cattle, men, ETC., also normal
conditions and the A. @. exhibit. This
exhibit is, to me, by far the most in
teresting. 1t contains apparatus used,
and things made by A. G. students.
Some things made by them are, a
wireless outfit, electric fly trap, a hy-
draulic press, gears of all kinds and
other lathe work, ETC., etc., almost in
definitely.
The different barns, too, are very
interesting, as. they contain many
famous and remarkable animals. One
is a shorthorn bull, Ringnaster, which
perhaps, has won more prizes than
any other bull in this part of the
country. Besides two cattle barns,
dairy and beef, there are barns for
sheep, swine, horses, three or them Tor
race horses and one for poultry. Be
sides these there is an art building,
containing fancy work, school chill
dren's work, etc, an automobile ex-
hibit where nine makes of autos are
exhibited: machinery tents where
many makes of machines are shown,
and about an acre of engines and
separators. The exhibits are very in
teresting and instructive, more so, be-
cause our lectures made good and bad
points more plain to us.
The only amusements attended so
far were the daily performances in

makes its appearance in the tram
scendant crabs and spreads from them
to other trees. This seems to be a con-
%stitutional disease and acts as con-
sumption in the human family. There
seems to no possible cure for the
same. It appears that the richer the
land from fertilIzing, the greater the
ravages. While several trees in town
are diseased our seem to be free from
the blight.
BY all plant apples, but we
believe the crab-apple should be kept
out. Our experience teaches us to use
no fertilizer as 1t forces too rapid a
growth, weakens the tree and makes it
mor susceptible to disease. If at any
time blight appears but the branches
well back of the disease part and burn
the diseased member. Our views may
not coincide with that of others but
we speak from experience and obser-
walton in our own case.

doubt o. find a remedy to prevent

Washington, June l7-How long

a ticket in Chicago? Win the con-
test between Taft and Roosevelt re-
suit in carrying it over into the week
set by the democrats for their CON
yentlOn at Baltimore? And, il so.
what will be the effect on the Balti-
more body2
These are a few of the questions
that are being asked by the politi-
clans in this city and in answering
which there is wide divergence OF
opinion. II is generally believed, not
only among the politicians but among
the newspaper correspondents, who
follow national politics very closely,
that the Chicago convention can
scarcely conclude its labors during
the week of June Is. This opinion
is based on the belief that the COM
mittee on credentials, to be appoint
ed by the convention at its opening
session, will decide to go into all OF
the contests, and that such pro-
ceeding will mean from three or four
days to week or ten days.
At the Minneapolis convention in
1892, when President Harrison was
re-nominated, there were almost as
many contests as there are today. The
national committee, controlled by the
Harrison forces, decided the contests
in the presidents favor, and the ere
dentials committee, Immediately fol-
lowing its appointment, went into
the contests at length, and did not
report TO the convention until the
Thursday session.
But there is a marked difference
between 1892 and 1912 so far as pub
lie interest in the contests is CON
cerned. Then the interest was Who'll
ly confined to the professional poll
ticians; now it extends to the entire
electorate, in both political parties.

PREACHERS TO
TAKE OUTING

Arrangements were partially made
this morning by the city ministerial
alliance for an outing of all pastors
and their wives in the city to be held
next week 1t is probable that the
association will take a trip into the
mountains for their vacation and will
have their own entertainment. Plans
are being made for some kind of
sports and a big dinner.
The association adjourned this
morning until September 1st, when
the meetings will commence again.
The association has discussed many
local problems during their meetings
of the last year and say they have
received inspiration by these meet
ings.

ing it up to annual sales of 100, 900

So far, the Latimer company has
made no announcement as to Mr.
Motifs successor
Mr.. Mott stated this morning that
he was leaving the city. with consid-
cradle regret, but that the offer he
had received was too fattering TO
refuse. Il anticipate a big cider and
vinegar business in the west in the
future said Mr. Mott, "and Grand
Junction should be the center of this
large trade"
Mr.. Mott recently refused an offer
of the American Fruit Products com
pany, the cider trust, to take charge
of their New England business.
The daily sentinel., 1912-06-17

If, ask the experts who are figuring
on the conventions running over into
the week of June "a, it took the COM
mittee on credentials three days to
look into a set OF contests IN 1892,
with nobody but the politicians car
ing anything about them, how much
longer will it take the same commit
tee now to look into a set of contests
in Which the people as a whole are
Interested?
The republican national commit
tee was ten days disposing of the con-
tests. Can the credentials committee
be a shorter time and do the work
thoroughly? ask public men in this
city. The tendency is to answer this
last question in the negative, and to
believe that the Chicago convention
may possibly encroach several days
on the time set for the democratic
convention at Baltimore.
If this should be the case, it is
asked, what will the democrats do?
The answer, coming from democrats
of all shades of belief, is that the
convention at Baltimore will do no
thing in the way of nominating can
didates until it knows definitely
what is to be done along that line at
Chicago.
If the Chicago convention should
nominate President Taft, the Balti-
more convention will want to do one
thing; but, if the Chicago convention
should nominate Colonel Roosevelt,
the Baltimore convention might de-
sire to do something else. 1t is,
therefore, believed that, if the Chi
cago convention is not over by June
20, the democrats will mark time un-
til it is concluded. That is to say,
they will meet and perfect tempor-
airy organization and then adjourn
for day at time until the repub-
licans have named their ticket
