PATTERSON
Is ARRESTED
UNDER COMPLAINT OF oPDYKE
PATTERSON is UP BEFORE
JUSTICE PERRY.

Bismarck. N. D., Aug 31.-Coun-
ty Commissioner E. G. Patter-
son was arrested by Sheriff Barnes
charged with auditing and allowing a
bill on Nov. 3, 1911, for services rend-
cred which was unitemized and I'M
verified, the complaint being sworn out
by l.. Z. Opdyke.
Patterson was arraigned before JUS
tice Perry and through his attorneys
asked for a continuance until this aft
ernoon and the request was granted.
Before the arraignment Justice Perry
suggested that the case ought to oe
dismissed on the grounds that it was
a disgrace to Bismarck and Burleigh
county, but States Attorney Smith
strongly objected to the court Offering
suggestions and demanded trial. The
defendant made a statement in open
court that he had been tried on the
same charge before the grand jury,
and was discharged, and that the
county treasurer also dismissed the
case against him and other commits
sioners on the same charge, but the
court decided to try the case being
that the state demanded such. The
states attorney required that the de-
PENDANT put up a bond for appearance
in court Saturday afternoon and the
court fixed the bond at $50, which was
furnished.

the commission as a delegate to this
meeting. This is quite an important
event and it is fortunate that a mem
Der of the tax commission of this state
be allowed to attend, as there are
prominent tax experts from not only
all parts Of the United States, but
from foreign lands, and the findings
and conclusions Of this body are ac-
cepted as authority in circles dealing
with the tax question.
The Dunn County Matter.
The Dunn county tax matter has
been pretty well settled, though 1t has.
brought out some very good ideals. 1t
will be remembered that the authori-
ties of that county set the assessment
of the entire county at $3.50, which
was not fair as a flat rate would be
too high in some places and not high
enough in others. The tax commits
sion has ordered the county commits
sioneTs OF Dunn county to get busy
this fall and have an appraisement
Of actual values of all real estate in
the county, for the information of the
board of county commissioners and
for the tax commission also. BY so
doing it will give a basis upon which.
to determine assessments in the fa-
ture. 1t is the intention of the tax
commission to issue this order to all
counties later, as it IS deemed quite
necessary for future reference.

Atkins has returned with Fred Pome-
roy. who broke the Foster county jail
asst month, while being held for trial
on the charge of forgery. Pomeroy
was arrested at Red Wing, Mimi,
where he was going under the name
of Dudjensky, a cognomen he used in
this vicinity at times.
Pomeroy was arrested June 13, while
trying to make his getaway from the
county in an auto, which he had just
purchased from a Goodrich citizen,
giving a bogus check in payment. A
heavy rain hindered his progress and
he was compelled to put for rest at the
Melville hotel after being pulled out
of the mud several times, in one in
stance, at least, giving a bogus check
for the accommodation.
Pomeroy waived a preliminary hear
ing and was bound over to the dis
trict court under 5000 bond which he
was unable to furnish. A few days
later he broke out of jail and has been
al liberty since. Some days ago Sher-
if Atkins received word from Red
Wing hat a man answering the de-
scription was there. A photo was Sc
cured and a wire was SEN back that
the Red Wing authorities had the right

TURNED TURTLE

car, driven by Atty. H. E. Johnson of
Ryder, turned turtle seventeen miles
southwest of Minot and MI. Johnson
was seriously wounded.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson. were in
the car when the accident happened.
1t is thought that the wheels Of the
car skidded. and that in order to pre-
vent an accident Johnson put on the
brakes, which caused the machine to
flop over.
Both Mr.. Johnson and his wife were
thrown, cut of the car. The. attorney
was pinned under the machine. His
shoulder was broken and one of his
legs was badly sprained. It is thought
also that he sustained internal injuries.

water tank in the electric light plant
broke loose from its supports about
II o'clock at night and fell with a
great crash, throwing tons Of water
into the engine room and filling the
building with steam. Engineer Vos-
burg, Gust Stenseth and H. F. Larson
were sitting in the engine room at the
time and lost no time in running to
the nearest door.
When they got far enough away
from immediate danger to think, they
went back and the engineer went in
and raked his fire and as soon as the
steam had cleared enough to make an
investigation possible, they found that
in addition to the tank being down it
had taken with it several steam and
water pipes and the plant was out Of
