Bandits Bold.

Two masked bandits held up the
Queen and Crescent New York linn
tied No. at a fIagstation yesterday
morning at an early hour, eight
miles south of Hattiesburg, Miss.
The passengers were not mOlested
The bandits departed with money
and valuabIes ranging, as estimat-
ed, from $4,000 to 100000. The ban
dts had beyond doubt been apprised
Of the money being on this train. AS
usual, the bandits skipped but were
being pursued with bloodhounds
and officers of the law. 1t is be-
lieved they are the same men who
robbed the train on the Mobile and
Ohio in February last near Corinth
Mississippi.

A COmmOtiOn i'm the LEGISLATURE

To use a trite expression of the
streets the members of the Legisla-
ture holding dual offices" have been
thrown into fits. This cOmmOtion
was precipiTatpd on the resolution
Of Representative Schwing. In sub
stance the dual officcholders must
determine on which office they
would fill. Should the resolution be
passed, the seat of the members
holding two offices should be de-
clared vacant. Members who are no
taries would be excepted. The reso-
luton should pass. The graft of Of
flee is no less reprehensible than
other CRAFTS. .......

used for three years, with II o extra
cost to the county. This extramoney
will enable the banks OF the county
to loan out more money to farmers
and it will tend on the whole to make
.Hettinger county more prosperous.
The work OF repairing the McKen.
zie bridge was commenced this week
and the road will be closed until the
repairs are completed. which will
take about two weeks. II the weather
is favorable. Teams from the south
use the old ford in the Mckenzie
pasture, and hundreds OF tfAN cross
the Cannon Ball every day with but
very little Inconvenience. The four
horse teams have no trouble In max.
ing the grade, but 1t is not 50 easy
for the t%wO.horse teams, especially
II the horses are not well shod. The
water which Is carried by the wheels
to the approaches makes 1t rather
slippery right where the hard pull
starts. Several farmers from the
west have hauled some very heavy
loads over the ford the past week and
they Say that there are several places
in Billings county where it Is harder
for the teams than CLOSING the river
at New England. Another week will
probably be sufficient to finish the re.
pair work.

uation under the county assessor sys.

ment was further increased to 81
81 ,260, 2S5, which amount was nore
than SO times the valuation Of 1907.
The levy was not relatively decreas-

needs of the various taxing districts.
The rate in 1907 was ACT per cent;
in 1908 and 1909 II was / per cent.

ports a very good yield at the Richter
farm this year. The 105 acres OF
wheat averaged 20 bushels, IS acres

er got a 10 per cent hail loss on his
wheat and a 90 per cent loss on the
oats. He says If he can do as we'll
every year he will be satisfied. He

poets to leave Saturday for Minneso-

tives and old friends.

and death was caused from child.
birth. The deceased has been q resi-.
dent of the county the past four years
and was popular and beloved by
whomever had the pleasure of her &C.
Quaihtance.~ She leaves her husband
and three children to mourn her
death besides many other relatives.
We join with the people OF this com.
munity in extending coincidence to
the grief stricken husband and chill
dren.
Assistant Attorney General Young
was at Stanton at the request Of Sher-
if Heinemeyer investigating into the
reported ~overcharges for services in
the Ssheriff'sl office. This fall during
the campaign the assertion was made
that Mr.. Heinemeyer had o~vercharged
the county for services and MI. Helm.
emeyer sought the advice Of the
states attorney, who did not enlight-
en- him as to the matter, and he has
been instigator in getting the attor.
ney generals Office to investigate the
matter. If Mr.. Heinemeyer has W
charged the county he is ignorant Of
the fact, but has brought the investi.
cation on to right the matter and In
the eyes OF his constituents. Mr..
Heinemeyer has taken a manly stand
Which should be approved Of through
out the county.
The people Of this vicinity will be
pleased to learn that the Northern
Pacific railway has decided to run a
daily train ON the north branch out Of
Bismarck to Stanton. The train was
to start yesterday and will be a well
come acquisition to the people of Mer-
Ger county, who have heretofore been
burdened with a t%ri.weekly. The bus
mess on the north line has been enor'
nous this fall, the receipts at Stanton
alone running from 100000 to $4,000
per month, and besides this eight and
ten cars Of grain leave Stanton on
each train. The people are entitled
to a daily train and the business de-
mands it.. Now that we have such
service there is bright hopes of better

mail car will sooner or later be at
tached to the train and mail received
at Krem and other points direct from
Stanton, thus abandoning the long
route from New Salem to Stanton and
then to Krem and Expansion. Mail
! should reach Krem a day earlier un-
der this new plan. A star route
ought to be established from Stanton
to Expansion by way of krem, the
mail to leave Stanton after the train
is in at noon, reaching Kre.m in the
middle of the afternoon and Expan-
sion in the evening and, returning,
pass through Krem in the forenoon
and reach Stanton in time for the
train. But this is only u version Of
the affair, but it seems to be the most
feasible one. With a mail train to
Stanton that point is also likely to be
the distributing point for the innu-
merable postoffices throughout Mer-
Ger county.

Linton

Jos, Eberle, the Linton merchant,
who has been receiving treatment for
his eyes at 0ne Of the Bismarck hos
pItals, Is home again. He says his
eyes are somewhat better, although
still in bad shape.
Mr.. and Mrs. Will Lee, of Emmons.
burg, left Monday morning for Bis
marck to visit Mrs. Lees parents. Mr..
and Mrs. John Clark, who live several
miles this side Of that city.
Mrs. w. r. Petrie, who has been i'll
in one of the Bismarck hospitals for
improved and returned home Monday
night. Mr.. Petrie. went up there Mon.
day and accompanied here home.
To date the local elevators have
shipped 260 carloads of grain. This
is a pretty good showing, considering
the fact that the country right around
Linton is not very we'll adapted to
embarrassing, and that the roads from
almost every direction are not of the
best.
There is much sympathy expressed
by the many friends Of Mr.. F. M. Long,
the Braddock merchant, whose wife
died Saturday, Dec. 14th. Mrs. Long
was about t%hirty-five years old. She
was born in Albert Lea, Minnesota,
and was married to Mr.. Long June
Is, 1910. She leaves n child. The
cause of death was heart-failure. She
had been sick about two weeks. She
was a member of a remarkably large
family, eleven brothers and three sis
tiers surviving her. The remains of
Mrs. Long were taken 70 Minneapolis
for interment. They were ACCOMPANY.
led by Mrs. Longs husband, father
and three sisters.
Linton merchants report that the
Christmas trade this year has been all
that could be desired. This 8 due
largely, no doubt, to the more pros.
porous conditions existing here this
season. All the stores had on hand
fine lines of holiday goods, and the
window displays reminded one fOrci.
bly, of the approach of Christmas. It
also Impressed n of the fact that
Lintoh is becoming more metropolitan
in appearance as the years go by. Not
so very long ago it would have been
ali unusual thing to e a store win.
dow here which presented an appear
anceH other than that of the entife

their share of work. Hundreds Of

them. "

NATIONAL HIGHWAY SYSTEM

The National Highway association
has been organized its object being
the construction of four national high
ways to extend from coast to coast
and OF such a nature that automobiles
can use them with pleasure for those
fortunate enough to own machines
and can spare the time to make the
whole of or the trip in part The
plans as outlined call for two of these
highways running through Michigan
and are as follows:
Toledo-Mackinaw, running through
Detroit, Pontiac, Saginaw, Bay City,
Cheboygan and terminating at the
straits.
Detroit Chicago, running through
Ypsilanti. Ann Arbor, Jackson, Battle
Creek, Kalamazoo. and joining the
northern transcontinental mail ma
tional highway at South Bend.
