ONE. #S

GRAND FORKS, N. D.. Oct. as.
With the close Of the crop year. the
Development League Press bureau at
Grand Forks is receiving many re-
ports from all. sections of the state re-
garding the succe Of diversified
farming. The following is q typical
object lesson Of what can be accom-
plished by a farmer who adjusts him
self to conditions. MS S; q.
Tom Stvens. who lives ten miles
northwest Of Hettinger, in Adams
county, and who in the past conduct
ed what was known as the Stevens
ranch, was in the city Of Hettinger
the other day with a box Of cream
checks which he had received in little
over a year. The checks showed that
Mr.. Stevens had sold in that time,
3,066.39 pounds of butter fat, for which
he received in cash $S40.24. One hun.
dred farmers like Stevens, tributary
to Hettinger would mean the distribu.
ton Of $S4,024 for cream each year.
There is hardly a locality where this
method of adding to- farm productiv.
ity is not available. 3

Supreme Court. The North Dakota
Bar Association, at it's last meeting,
advocated a few Of the reforms which
Mr.. Robinson has been advocating for
over fifteen years. The Judiciary,
however, will never be reformed by
the lawyers, as the majority generally
hesitate to openly oppose a Judge who
Is I'D for election, and in many cases
there is good reason for %hesitating,
because from a Judges wrath there is
no appeal. .3@ o.
mi. Robinson has had many cases
before the Supreme Courts of North
Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, and the United States Su-
preme Court. He has had over a thou.
sand s in the District Courts of
this state, and has the enyiable record
Of having won over ninety-ive per
cent of his cases.
He has for many years r~earlessly
and courageously advocated a change
Of. the court rules sc as to give justice
to all with absolute fairness, and with.
out sale, denial or delay, and in utter
Disregard to the social, financial or po-
litical utilization Of the parties.
If elected, iMr. Robinson will not
assume to be the dictator Of the peo'
pie, but will consider himself their ser
want. He will insist that the Supreme
Court keep up with it's work, and will
refuse to join in a three months vaca
ton while many cases are pending be
fore the court-some for. years. He
believes that a servant Of the people
who receives a salary Of Five Thous
and Dollars a year ought to attend t.
his business. ~ &'~a

II PUBLic,s QUERY.

With the excitement or Tuesday
nights tragedy quelled the thought up
most in the minds Of all laW-abiding
citizens Of Devils Lake is, why have
the states attorney, the sheriff, the
city attorney and the city police al
lowed a den, such: as is claimed to
have been running wide open, to op-
crate in q city where the sale4of liquor
and gambling are a violation Of the
law. Is it necessary that murder
be committed right under the nose of
the law before some action will be
taken to rid Devils Lake of these Grim
inal hang-outs and filthy holes? Or
should it ave be necessary for some
citizen to secure the evidence and
make complaint against such viola
tons before an officer, who when he
was elected, pledged himself to en-
force the laws without fear or favor?
True it is that such tragedies will
sometimes happen in even the best of
cities, but Devils Lake would be clear
of this blot had not agfhouse of this
kind been operating within its limits.
It is rumored that other joints of this
nature are operating in the city, and
II such is the a the officials should
see to it that we be rid Of this class
of criminals and aid in preventing an
other such smirch on the record of
city. sHs.@ s. .

THE G Il

C. w. Buttz won in the primaries by
over 400 votes. The result was de.
cisive; he carried three out Of the four
counties of the district, and he lead in
nearly two out of every three pre-
cincts. There is every indication that
he is the peoples choice for district
Judge. He belongs to NJ gang or fac.
ton, and is in position to assume the
duties of the office in the interest Of
the whole people, rich and poor alike.
His supporters are standing by him
to a man, and reliable reports from
all over the district show he is stead
lily gaining ground, and indications are
that his majority on November 9Th
will not be less than 1000 votes. This
is as it should be. MI. Buttz Is In the
prime of life, has the ability and ju-
dicial temperament, rides no hobbies,
stands for the right in private and
public life, and has splendid capacity
for work, assuring the taxpayers
prompt and efficient service.
Lest MI. Buttz' friends become over:
confident, The Siftings would urge
every one who believes his election fol-
the best interest of the residents and
taxpayers Of the district as a whole to
use all honorable means to. assist him
to the end that his majority may be az
overwhelming as possible. He is max
ing q clean campaign and attacks up
ON him will only make him stronger
