n Editor Retires.

A~N+ @N-N~
The Junior editor, having sold
his half interest in the Intelli-
geneer to his partner, A, w.
Allen, hereby takes opportunity
to say goodbye to the subscrib-
ers. And, although he is 60
ing INTO work which is most
agreeable to him, he turns over
his Key to the shop with con
siderable regret. His association
with the senior editor has been
profitable in a financial way
and at all times amicable; his
relations with the employees Of
the office have been pleasant /;
he has formed a number of
warm friendships with other
newspaper men of the city and
state; he has enjoyed whatever
appreciation the public has
manifested for his efforts.
A little more than five years
ago he entered the Intelligencer
with little more equipment than
| a bovish enthusiasm. He barely
knew the difference between a
press and a column rule. Dur
ing his incumbency he has de
yeloped a tough hide and has
become wise enough to recognize
his own unworthiness and ignOr-
ance. He has tried to be hon
est and at no time has wilfully
slandered anybody. Some peo-
pie have considered him a by
pocrite and a knocker and have
written him anonymous letters to
that effect but he has Ill Will
toward no one. While he was
with tire paper the public has
favored it with enough patron
age to enable it to buy a new.
press, a linotype and q great deal
Of smaller material, and to move
from its old third-story location
to one Of the best adapted news
paper offices in the country. So
he feels grateful to the public.
He knows, too, that he leaves
the paper in capable hands. The
burden of the management of
the paper has rested on Mr.. Al
len ever since the firm of Allen
md Sellers purchased it. For
the past two years Mr.. Allen
mas done nearly all of the edi-
torial work and at the same time
managed the business. 1t is to
him more than to the junior
editor that the present prosper
ity of the Intelligencer is due.
He will continue to tell the
news, handle the jobs that come
to the office and deserve a
share Of the public's pa
tronage. He will continue, too,
to support the principles of
democracy and to advocate what
he thinks will be for the good of
Lexington, Lafayette county,
Missouri and the United States.
Now, with best wishes to the
Intelligencer and all its friends,
The junior editor packs his grip
and departs for Chicago, where
he will attend the Mccormick
Theological Seminary.

YOUNG CHICKS
DECEMBER Ia
HEN STEALS NEST AND COMES
OUT WITH HER BROOD in
REMARK ABLE WEATHER

There is town in Missouri that
boasts of being the home of the cham
pion egg laying hen, but Williston has
a faithful old bird that is without a
doubt entitled to some recognition.
This particular hen belongs to
resident of the city. On the l4th
day of December the owner thought
he heard little chickens somewhere
about the lot. An investigation re-
vealed five perfectly healthy little
chicks in the weeds in the rear Of the
lot. They were only a few hours old
The faithful old hen had stolen hel
nest in the weeds and had set on the
eggs through all the cold weather, ano
had hatched more than half of the
total number Of eggs in the nest
There were some pretty cold nights
during the time.

FORTY THOUSAND IN A DAY
CASE ENDS
SUDDENLY
CASE COMES TO ABRUPT ENDING
IN COURT HERE. WITNESS
REFUSED TO TESTIFY

The Arne Amundson case, from Mi
not, which was to have been tried
in district court here, came to an
abrupt ending soon after called last
Friday The sudden ending Of the
trial. was brought about because the
complaining and principal witness
refused to testify, giving as a reason
that to testify would incriminate, in
view of the former testimony in the
trial some time ago, which ended in
jury disagreement.
The case was to have been tried at
Crosby, but Amundson's attorney
filed an affidavit Of predjuice against
the judge and jurors, there being two
other rape cases on in that county.
Judge Fisk granted the motion to
have the case tried in Williams coun-
ty. The sudden collapse of the case
probably ends all further prosecu-
ton. Court adjourned Friday until
after New Years.

MOELLER
CONVICTED
MUST. SERVE TEN YEARS IN
STATES PRISON-LONG LEGAL,
BATTLE ENDS

After fighting for years for his lib
erty, and putting up one of the great
est legal battles in the history OF the
state, DR.. Thor Moeller, formerly OF
Minot, but now of Velva, must serve
sentence of ten years in the penlten-
tiary, at Bismarck for the murder Of
Gina Lien, Lorraine N. D., music
teacher, four years ago.
This is the final decision of the -
preme court, reaffirming Judge K. =
Leighton, Of that district handed down
at Bismarck Monday last. DR.. Mos1r
er will probably start to serve his So
tence within the next few days, ana
this will close one of the most dra-
matte incidents in the criminal his
tory of Ward county, courts.
To many the details of the story
are still fresh. DR.. Thor Moeller, who
was a prominent practicing physi :i0
at Minot, was arrested shortly fol-
lowing the death Of Gina Lien. at .
Mi,ot. hotel and charged with murder
in the second degree. 1t was alleged
that he performed criminal opcra-
ton on Miss Lien from Which she
died.

will be the aim of L. B. Hanna, sooo
to be governor of North Dakota.
Since he has been in Washington,
Hanna, in addition to winding up hin
affairs as member of the house, has
been giving careful consideration to
the legislation which he will urge upon
the legislature, which meets in jan
uary.
He left Washington on Wednesday,
for New York, whence he went to
Fargo, reaching there on December
10.
Before he left Washington he said:
"North Dakota is an essentially
agricultural state, but I believe man
ufactures can be developed there and
that products now wasted can be uti-
lized so that the wealth of the state
can be greatly increased.
Would Use Flax Straw
"Take one product, flax straw, as
an instance. For years farmers have
thrown this straw away or burned
it as useless by-product of flax
and flax seed. The aggregate an
nual destruction of this product is
3,5O0,OOO tons.
"The government has made ex-
periments in the manufacture OF paper
from this straw, which | believe will
result in discovering cheap process
for utilization Of this product for a
purpose.
professor Bolley estimates that the
straw winch is now burned will be
worth $40 per ton for paper making
and want the day hastenea when this
waste product will be turned into
paper. With that end in view l
shall ask the legislature to make an
appropriation for cooperative work

the manufacture Of paper from flax
straw.

states the possibilities of our state,

TONNAGE
INCREASING
MINING OF Ignite RAPIDLY IN
CREASING-FEW ACCIDENTS
DURING PAST YEAR

Although the vast deposits Of hg'
mite coal, which underlie the western
half of North Dakota, have hardly
been touched, Ignite coal mining is
developing satisfactorily. The report
of state Engineer T. r. Atkinson, just
received shows the tonnage to have
been IA times greater this year than
in 1911. There are at the present
time 1O5 mines in operation in North
Dakota, and about 1900 miners are
employed constantly while in the win
ter months, 400 additional men are
used. There were no mining fatall-
ties, during the year and very few ac-
cidents of any kind. Lignite dust
does not create the dangerous damp
of the anthracite mines. AS the lig-
mite territory becomes more accessible
to railroads, the industry promises to
become one of the big industries of
the state.

BIG BOOSTER
MEETING
COMMERCIAL CLUB TO HOLD
BANQUET AND MEETING IN
JAN.-GREATER WILLISTON

The Williston Commercial Club will
have big banquet and get-together
meeting Tuesday night, January z.
The meeting and banquet will be held
in the l. O. 0. F. Hail. For the past
several days the committee on ar
rangements have been busy preparing
for the event.
Now that the busy season is about
over for the business men of the city,
it is planned to take up Commercial
Club matters and push them with a
vim for the coming year: At the
meeting to be held Monday night
plans will be talked over and a course
of action determined for 1918. The
program will include several local
speakers as well as some from out of
town. Musical numbers are also be-
ing arranged for. ..
Just now there are a great many
matters of Importance that the club
can take up, which will be of great
benefit to the city later, and it is the
earnest desire Of the officers that
every person in the city interested in
Greater Williston," be present at
this meeting.
The prosperity and growth Of a
town is not guarded by the wealth
of it's inhabitants so much as by the
uniformity with which they pull to-
gether when any important undertake
ing is to be accomplished. This is
the reason for a Commercial Club.
One of the principal great objects of
the Club is bring us all nearer to the
known world, or in other words to get
and maintain our place on the map.
Make it a point to be at this get-to-
gether meeting and in so doing you
will help to make Williston VIM"
