VA|LsBURG SEWER
PLAN IS BLOCKED

A vigorous protest by property
Owners of vailsburg yesterday after
moon resulted in the Board of Works
deferring third reading of the ordinance
for the storm sewer in hat section.
When the commissioners tried to per-
suade the delegation that they were
blocking a much needed Improvement
the crowd held a meeting outside of
the auditorium and remained firm and
finally the commissioners voted to let
the Thirteenth warders nav their way.
Halsey Tichenor favored the immedi-
ate passage of the resolution and de-
clared that he paid $70O taxes last year
on that tract now known as Vailsburg
Lake, and did not sell a single lot on 1t.
Some of the property-owners are to
blame for that body of water on my
property by the construction of that
artificial dam at South Orange avenue
If this sewer Is delayed I'll have their
brick wall removed, SO that the natural
flow of water will not be interrupted"
said Mr.. Tichenor.
The delegation asked the city II It
would guarantee them that the cost
would not be more than $35 per lot of

mary Campaign Will Make

ASHLEY, N. D., May l6-Some
time ago public land sale was held
in Bismarck at the United States land
office. Among the isolated tracts Of
fered was a forty acre section in Me-
Intosh county. A man by the name of
Tschetter had petitioned the officials to
place this tract on sale. The land ad-
joined quarter section owned by
Ralph Johnstone, p year old boy OF
Ashley. Johnstone came up to Bis
marck to attend the sale, and met
Tschetter. They laughed and passed
the time of day, and were jollying be-
cause each wanted the same piece of
land
Young Jollnstone and Tschetter fin
ally decided that they did not want to
bid against each other and run the price
of the tract to prohibitive figure, and
they came to an understanding, 1t is
said, whereby Johnstone was the sole
bidder. 1t is now alleged that john
stone paid Tschetter some money to re-
imburse him for his time and trouble
in going to Bismarck In so doing he
is said to have violated one of the
United States statutes, and recently
United States Marshal Shea went to
Ashley and placed young Johnstone un~
der arrest. At the time his prelimin-
ary hearing was set, United States Dis
trict Attorney Engerud was unable to
reach Ashley, and Johnstone will be
taken direct before the United States
grand jury at Fargo, May 2l
The special statute under which
young Johnstone was arrested is aimed
to catch only the man who pays the
money to another to keep him from
bidding. There is another statute re-
ating to conspiracy under which the
man who receives the money may be
tried, and action against Tschetter will
probably be started along this line
The Johnstone case is claimed by Nc
1ntosh county residents who visit the
capital city to be matter of political
retaliation, and through it is revealed
one of the most bitter factional fights
recorded in North Dakota-which is
saying a great deal.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, May 16-A sensa-
tonal break in prices during the last
fifteen minutes of trading on exchange
caused by the wild selling of stop or
ders, sent wheat prices tumbling down
as much as 3-4 cents bushel, from
last night.
Corn, oats and pork lost. The wheat
excitement was due to heavy sales on
the part of two prominent concerns.
In the end, weakness spread over other
staples, and led to general smash in
prices 1t is estimated that as much as
100000 bushels wheat have been un-
loaded on the market in 48 hours.
