The Federal Government to-day,

the liquor interests against millions
Of patriotic Americans, who are try

tn" extent OF aiding the liquor in

and city laws, where the traffic has
been outlawcd. And our States,

Still Embalming Beet,

Almost simultaneously with the
charges made in Congress by Congress,
man Nelson that the Department Of
Agriculture was letting up" in the
meat inspection standard. comes the
discovery, at Philadelphia, that % oou
pounds OF "cmbalmcd" beef had been
PIT aboard the United States cruiser
Prairie, which was about to proceed to
Cuba to help qucll the new revolution
IN that country.
This tainted food was detected, not
by the regular meat inspectors. but by
special inspectors assigned by the Navy
department TO test that particular con.
signment OF meat. The naval inspect.
ors described this meat which was in.
tended for the American soldiers aud
sailors as filthy and diseased. "
Solicitor George Z. McCabe, the vii.
son underling who drove Or. Wiley out
Of the government service, grew very
indignant when Congressman Nelson
first asserted that the meat inspectors
of the agricultural department were not
doing their duty by the public.
But the Philadelphia discovery shows
that Nelson knew what he was talking

Washington, June "A thousand mil.
lion dollars YEAR This is the amount
that the protected industries wiring from
the American people over and above a
idir prOht on money actually invested
according to an estimate made by United
states Senator Gilbert NJ. Hitchcock OF
Nebraska, And Senator Hitchcock has
never been charged with making wild
statement, impossible OF substantlation.
u believe il Is within reason 10 say,
said Senator Hitchcock, At the conclu.
sion OF a speech he made on the subject,
that careful examination OF the pro-
fits from all ciasscs OF privileged wealth
IN the United States would reveal that
the protected industries OF this country
exact from the people, over and above
fair profit, approximately a thousand
millions Of dollars a wear. The fact
that these industries have monopoly,
granted them through our laws, enables
them to do this"
Senator Hitchcock speech fairly
1ristled with figures, taken from the
most reliable and authcut, sources, TO
back each OF his detailed statements.
The steel trust alone gets $500 900, 900
annually in excess OF fair profit. This
monopoly does an annual business of
three thousand million dollars, and It
Is admitted that without the tariff on
steel, that trust would have to sell its
products at ten per cent less than II
now charges and ten per cent Of three
thousand millions is three hundred mil
lion. Every man. woman and child pi
the uinety-tWo millions III this country,
then, pays an ANIMAL tribute Of $3.50 To
the steel trust, over and above what they
would haze to paN # there were no tariff
ON steel.

One effect has been TO create q horde OF

has been gradual Capitalization OF the
wealth of the nation ~ the hands 1t a.

the struggle for existence among the

the constantly iurrca~lu. number OF
strikes. Within the last IS year, there
have been .}b,7S6 strikes III this country,
most of them for higher wages. These
strikes have involved total of b. 900, 600
workers, who, with their wives and
children, were driven to suffering and
desperation.
While the steel trust Of this country
enjoys a complete monopoly, due to the
tariff, II finds time TO compete with 9th
cr nations for steel trade. Last year
the steel makers OF thi, country sold

During the past week "a deal was
made whereby G. o. Thompson again
becomes the publisher of the Taylor Re-
porter. Editor J. A. Smith severing his
ownership with this weeks issue of the
paper. Mr.. Smith has enjoyed a good
patronage al Taylor and has no COM
plant to make, but he says ne has
tired of the newspaper grind for a lit
tie while at least, but has not, really
decided what he will do. The chances
are, however, that Mr.. Smith will
take up the work again somewhere in
the near future. 1t will take him a few
weeks to make his collections and he
also has some auction sales to cry.
Editor Thompson had the Reporter
about a year and thought last spring
that he wanted to engage in the news
paper work farther west but after look
ing around for a few months he became
more convinced than eve that Stark
county was as good a field for his bust
ness as he could find any where. He
seems pleased to get back and his old
friends are likewise glad, and the
PRESS welcomes him to the field again.

she married another man named Wright,
early in 1911. Evidently their welded
life was not agreeable for in April,
1911. she applied for a divorce from
Wright, which was granted August 20,
1912.
June 10, 1912. two months before her
divorce was granted, she married Guy
Bolton at Mandan. having at the time
two husbands living from whom she had
not been legally separated. This was
brought out at the hearing, and what
the final outcome will be is a matter
of speculation.
VIM. LANCER of Mandan, who is the
attorney for Mrs. Bolton, argued that
the laws of North Dakota provide that
where a woman has been living apart
from her husband for five years. and be-
lieves him to be dead, she may re-
marry without the formality of a d.
vosce. His contention is that five years
has not elapsed between the time she
deserted Reynolds and married Wright,
and consequently. her marriage to Guy
Bolton, over q year later, was valid fos
the reason that the five years statutory
time had passed.
MIR. LANCER has appealed from the de-
cision of the probate judge to the dis
trict court. and as the issue has never
been tested the case will be watched

MYRTLE BOLTON IN TROUBLE
She HAD MANY HUSBANDS

Readers of this paper will remember
that during the last of August Guy
Bolton was killed by VIM. Molash, better
known as Turkey Track Bill, in a re-
sort at Shields, Morton county. The men
got into a quarrel over Mrs. Guy Bolton,
all three having been drinking together
for some time. Bolton, a man of about
IS years, was a former resident of Bis
marck. Turkey Track Bill came up from
Mexico a good many years ago and in
early days visited Dickinson often. He
is now in Jail awaiting his trial. The
following from the last issue of the
Shields Enterprise brings to light fea-
lures of the case that do not look GOOD
for the woman:
"Was Myrtle Bolton the legal wife of
Guy Bolton?
his Tissue was argued before the
judge of the county court of Burleigh
county, at Bismarck, last week. in
connection with the probating of the es-
tate Of Guy Bolton, who was shot and
killed at Shields, August 18th.
Mrs. George Upright of Bismarck. Guy
Bottoms mother. applied for letters Of
administration in the matter of the es-
tate Of Guy Bolton, alleging to be his
only legal heir. Myrtle Bolton also
asked to be appointed administrators, al
lesine to be the wife Of Guy Bolton.
The county judge after hearing the
evidence adduced by both parties. de-
cided in favor of Mrs. Upright.
It was brought out at the hearing
that Myrtle Bolton married a man
named Reynolds, in Iowa, il 1902. She
lived with him$four years and then de-
serted him. Without. securing q divorce

Anton 8urwick & Sons have pur-

Helmer VOLTA has made q couple of
trips to Dickinson this week, looking
for a gasoline engine and outfit complete
which he purchased through C. E.
johnson and which was to be shipped
from Fargo.
Mrs. Omot. who has been visiting her
sister, Mrs. 7. H. Olson, returned Fri
day to her home in Manden. Mr.. Omot
a photographer, came out with his wife
for a few days and took some fine pic
lures of this vicinity.
G. A. Hosheld, Eve miles west of
Daglum. has finished threshing 6. 900
bushels of wheat on his farm. Jake
Stilllngwarth and VOLTA Bros, also
Frank Kruger have each about s. 600
bushels of wheat from their 1912 crop
and still have q lot of flax to thresh.
Cornelius Thomas will probably have
the biggest total yield of any of the
farmers in this fertile district. He has
nearly a whole section or $40 acres in
wheat which looks good for 20 bushels
to the acre. All farmers in this vicin-
ity are getting good yields this season.
