VIII not contest the seat in the United
states senate now held by Senator
Hoke Smith. and to retain which the
latter gentleman must go before the
people of Georgia in Democratic pri-
mary in August two years hence.
The News thinks that much of the
late state board of education row may
have sprung from some such notion
upon the part of some of Senator
Smiths friends, and that it foreshad
ows battle royal over the senator
ship in 1914.
Senator Smith was elected by the
legislature in 1911. after the death OF
Senator Clay, and is now filling out the
uneXpired term of that lamented states
man. His term of service will END on
March 4, 1915.
y night between Brown and Smith in
a popular primary would be approx
mately AN even thing so far as the
senatorship is concerned-neither as vet
having sought that Office before the
people.
Governor Brown has minated to no
living soul, so far as anybody will say
whether he will be a candidate for the
senate.
1t is fact, however, that Governor
Brown prides himself in the governor
ship more because his distinguished
father before him held that high Of
flee than because of anything else. He
reveres the memory of the elder Brown

with great respect. 1t has been said OF
Little Joe" that he would like to fol-

TWO AUTO ACCIDENTS
IN DICKINSON THIS week

There were two auto accidents in the
city the FIRST of the week. Just after
dinner on Monday Harold Farrand and
E. A. Lillibridee had head on c0llis-
ion on First Ave. West at the First
National bank corner. Mr.. Farrand
was coming in from Willard street
while Mr.. Lillibridge was headed in the
opposite direction. They were not 60
ing very fast and no one seems to
know just how the accident happened.
Mr.. Lillibridse did not get much break.
age but the other machine lost wheel
among other things.
The second accident was the explos-
ion and fire in the ALT. o. Nelson cal
in front of the Berringer market. Mr.. Mel.
son is an attorney in Dunn county anc
had stepped into the store to do some
trading. The fire seems to have started
from the gasoline tank but no one ap.
pears to understand just how. The from
seat and body of the Cadillac car wal
badly damaged. Attorney Nelson ca.
ried $1,000 insurance on his car ant
does not have to worry over the loss
The machine was left in the Dicki nso1
Motor Ger Co. shop and the own er re
turned TO Manning. It looks as through
5000 or $500 would put the car in re.
pair.

vm. BLAKE IN DICKINSON
HIS White SLAVE WORK

VIM. Blake was in the city for a
little while this week. He Brought a
little girl 4 years of age for whom he
was hoping to find a GOOD home in this
city.
Humane Officer Blake said that John
son and Jackson, the white slave
criminals, were to be sentenced to the
pen this week. They had operated at
Fargo, Valley City, Courtney and many
other places in the state.
The shameful traffic in young girls
in the state is indeed becoming alarm
ing. A Grand Forks paper has this to
say of the evil:
Since the arrest in Fargo of Jackson
and johnson. by Humane Officer Blake
last week, hardly a day has passed but
what new light has been thrown upon
the white slave industry in North Da-
kota. The traffic has reached alarming
proportions in this state and some sen.
sational developments are looked for BY
the authorities az the investigation con.
tinues to reveal new facts. =

STATISTICS COMPARED
With FARGO LIBRARY

The recently published annual report
of the Fargo public library makes pos
sibly an interesting comparison of the
statistics of that library with our own.
During the past year the Fargo public
library added 1.4SS new borrowers, max
ing total of 1924 while the Dickin-
son public library added 329 borrowers,
making the total number Of active bor-
rowers 1928. Fargo added 546 new
books, Of which 457 were purchased
and 80 donated; Dickinson purchased
ABS volumes and received by donation
66. making the total increase of the
year sol volumes. A new library, in
order to lay good foundation of the
older standard works and still keep
abreast Of the times, must add books
more rapidly than an older library. Our
library is not three years old.
The comparison of books circulated by
the two libraries during the year would
seem to indicate that our Juvenile de-
partment Is strong. 33,424 volumes
were circulated by the Fargo Public
library, of which 22. 1876 were issued
to adults and II, 02s to children; the
Dickinson library circulated 20, 400 VOL
umes, 3. 794 adults and 10, 606 juvenile.

Williamson OF MANDAN
The new R0ADMAsTER

There have been changes again this
week in the roadmaster department of
the Yellowstone division of the N. P.
For the past year the two roadmasters,
Chas. Nelson of Dickinson and Pat Murn
of Glendive. have been doing the work
on the entire division from Mandan to
Forsyth until this week when the terri
tory was divided into three districts
again. Chas. Nelson goes to Mandan
with district from that place to Dick
inson and J. F. Williamson, yard
master at Mandan, comes to Dickinson
as roadmaster from here to Gendive,
while Pat Murn of Glendive has the re-
naming territory west.
Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Nelson came here
from Mandan about two years ago and
our people will regret losing them as
residents but will welcome MIR. and Mrs.
Williamson. who will be moving up
from Mandan in few days. Mrs.
Williamson was in the city on Wednes-
day with her husband looking for a suit
able house.

MANY PRAIRIE CHICKENS
DEv0uRED THIS week

On Saturday and Sunday. the first two
days of the hunting season. there was
general exodus of men. guns. dogs
and some ladies from the city, all head
ed for the country. 1t would be difficult
to get all of the hunting parties from
Dickinson that were in the field on Sat-
urday and Sunday but all who could 10
were out.
Many parties went north to the
brakes, some into the Bad Lands and
Others in opposite directions. Some re-
turned with fair sized bag Of game
and others had no luck at all. Accord
Ing :. to previous r.ports-the prairie
chickens were plentiful this season-but
the Dickinson people who were out did
not find them SO. There was a great
deal of standing grain in the fields yet
that might have been the hiding place
of many chickens which will be game
for the hunter a little later. Ducks
were quite plen tiful in the vicinity ot
the creeks and marshy places and all
the wild fowl are in good condition.
Among the hunting parties from the
city Sunday were: H. J. Blanchard.
W. j. Elliott and DR.. Hauser; E. j.

DICKINSON BANKS GAIN
IN DEPOSITS sl75,e38.4 40
Compoe Call for Sept Shows Great Increase Over Ago
Banks in the Country Have Also Made Unexpected Gains.
Indicates General Prosperity for This Part of North Dakota
The Next Call will be Record Breaker

The comptroller of currency has made
the fourth bank call for the year 1912
and the statements Of the three fnan-
cial institutions in Dickinson make a
very creditable showing. The COM
bined deposits are 81. SIS, 49s. "a. or a
gain of SITS. 63S. 40 over the correspond
ing period of year ago. This speaks
well for the condition of this part of
North Dakota.
So far very little grain has been
marketed so that the increase in de-
posits does not come from this source.
The PRESS has not been able to get
comparative reports from all banks in
Starkcounty but enough have been re-
ceived to show that there is substan-
tial increase in deposits for the present
call over the one of year ago.
1t is certain that the fifth call of the
year will show rounding out of de-
posits for Stark county and the counties
tributary that will beat all previous
records.
The village of Belheld has $16O, O31.-
O8 in bank deposits, or gain of SIS, =
1884 over year ago.
The State bank of Gladstone has de-
posits of $24, 1925.
For the village of Taylor the Taylor
State and the Farmers & Merchants
State have a line of depOsits of Sill.
5O3.21.
The Merchants State and the Rich
ardton State, of Richardton village,
have deposits of S188, 268.
The total deposits for the seven banks
in Stark county outside of Dickinson art
$484, POI. .54, making total of ST, e99.
695.48 for the combined ten banks o.
Stark county.

PROGRESSIVE
PARTY work
Mayor Sweet of Fargo, 3rd Party
Candidate for Governor. Drs.
Stickney and Perkins and
Mr.. Ferris Attend.

The third, !oF. progressive. party was
fairly launched in this state at the con-
vention in Far&o lest Friday. Dr. v.
H. Stickney Of this city was member
of the committee on organization and
Dr.. G. A. Perkins, of the committee on
rules.
A state ticket was put in the field
headed by Or. &C, Creeaan. president of
Fargo College. The other nominees are
the same as those named on the republi-
can ticket, save the commissioner of
agriculture and labor which was not
definitely settled.
S. M. Ferris and G. A. Perkins were
dinner guests of Col. Roosevelt in the
private dining room of the Waldorf, the
party numbering nineteen. Mr.. Fer
ris was also Roosevelt's guest in his
private car from Fargo to Dickinson.
The Roosevelt party included besides
the Colonel. George E. Roosevelt, cou-
sin. who is acting as secretary, Cecil
A. Lyon. nation al committeeman from
Texas, DR.. Trell and two stenographers.
Roosevelt plans to speak in this section
on his return from the Pacific coast.
Although several papers announced
that it was at koosevelt's command
that state ticket was put up, this was
far from the truth. He had nothing to
say in regard to it and only as neces-
sity for future party organization was it
decided to put state ticket in the field,
the requirement for party recognition in
the primaries two years hence being
five per cent of the vote for Governor
this year.
A meeting of the executive commit
tee of the state central committee was
held Monday evening in Fargo to select
nominee for governor. DR.. Creegan not
having lived in the state the full term
of five years prescribed by law. Mayor
W. D. Sweet of Fargo was selected and
accepted the nomination.
Mayor Sweet said :-'I am going to
make vigorous campaign for all that
it is worth. On just what lines the
fight will be made other than for tn e
policies of the new party am not yet
prepared to state as it has been only
little more than to hours since accept
ed the nomination. But shall do all
in my power to carry North Dakota for
the national and state tickets. If il is
thought best to tour every city in the
state by automobile I shall be prepared
to make the tour for am in this race
10 fight. l am informed that Colonel
Roosevelt will return 10 the state for a
whirlwind tour just before the close of
the campaign and that we are also to
have a visit from Governor johnson.
the vice presidential candidate. 1t
may be possible shall be asked to ac-
company them on their tours through
North Dakota and if such is the case [
shall be found ready to do so.''
