II undoubtedly will follow the course
taken in the Aids bribery case. ia
which the Senate, sitting in committee
OF the whole. investigated the charge
that he had solicited and accepted a
bribe which was proffered by Benn

Stilwell case evidence will be collected
and presented to the Senate by the At

obtaining material TO corroborate the

will look up precedents and report to

morrow.
The charge that Stilwell divided the
proceeds Of $3.50 check with clerk

yidual in question. His denial is very
formal and is understood to contradict

Senator Stilwell tonight asked Ray
Is. Smith, ex-clerk of the Assembly, to
represent him If he decided to have
counsel in the Senate's investigation.
Kendall insists this $3.50 was given
TO Lewis at Stilwell's request. and was
handled in that way as a blind, and
that Lewis admitted 10 him and to
Senator Wagner that Stilwell got half
the money. 1t is the understanding of
the Governor and the Attorney General
that this check was split between the
two. This transaction, without any
thing else. would be enough to warrant
Stilwell's dismissal from the Senate.

Senator Wagner tonight declined to
say whether Lewis ever admitted 10
him that he gave Stilwcll half the pro-
ceeds of the check. on the ground that
probably he will have TO testify about

SUIT ON TODAY
SUIT OF NORTHERN TRUST co.
AGAINST j. 3. EATON FOR NOTE.
FOR FARGO DAILY NEWS NOW
PENDING IN DISTRICT COURT
JUDGE COOLEY PRESIDED.

The suit of the Northern Trust Co.

ier-NeWS, through some of its finan-
cial difficulties, is now pending in dis

Grand Forks presiding.
Two actions were scheduled on the
calendar to have been heard at this
time but the one in which G. III. An
heier was a defendant was settled out

ganization at that time, the chief wit
nesses in the case this morning were
some of the leading democrats Of the
state. And many prominent in demo-
cratic circles, interested in the hear
ing, were in attendance.
The details of the case are greatly
similar to that of the Northern Trust

national committeeman, heard in dis
by Mr. Eaton is only $3.50 while that
given by Mr.. Bruegger was for SIS. 900.

strom, democratic nominee for govern

STACKING FLAX
DOUBLED YIELD
HEADS DROPPED OFF FROM
THAT WHICH WAS LEFT IN
BUNcHEs AccoRpINGToW
HOPE FARMER SPRING WORK
is BEHIND.

Grand Forks Herald: That stacking
the flax which could not be threshed
last fall more than doubled the yield
which was secured this spring, was
the statement of P. n. Wold, a farmer
living near Westhope, who was in the
city last night on his way home from
Cummings, where he has been to look
after other farming interests. He said
that the farmers who stacked their
flax found this spring that the grain
was in good condition and that the
yields ran as high as sixteen bushels
an acre. In other fields, where the
fax was not stacked but was allowed
to lay out all winter in little punches,
the yield was cut down to but four
and five bushels an acre and then the
quality Of the grain was poor.
According to Mr.. Wold, the spring
work is considerably behind in the
northwestern part of the state. Hardly
any pIowing was done last fall and
consequently great deal of work was
left for the spring. However, the
weather has been of the best and the
work is progressing rapidly.
Work is further along in the south
western part of the state, according
to Thomas Cooper, secretary OF the
Better Farming aSSocldtloh, VINO mas
just completed a visit to Hettingeri
Adams and Bowman counties.
Wheat is about all seeded" said
Mr.. Cooper, land the farmers are now
busily engaged in getting in the corn.
I was very much pleased to hear of
the large amount of alfalfa that will
be planted this season, for it shows
that the farmers in that locality We're
much pleased with the results of last
year. l predict there will be a large
amount of this harvested this season.
z"Another thing that pleased me very
much was the fact that many of the
farmers in the section | visited have
taken. a. great deal of interest in the
raising of cattle and they are work
ing with what they have, as well as
making arrangements for the pur-
chase of more. They had splendid
rains in that part of the state and /
can say that the ground is in first
class condition, and from what they
all say in that locality there will be
good crops this fall. Our work in
general over the state has been going
along nicely which is very gratifying
to all of u.s."
