AUIO MlSHAP IN FOSIEH COUNIY
Several accidents, collisions and a
runaway due to autos and motorcy-
cles occurred in Darlington last
week, according to the Independent.
Among them was the following:
"A near fatal accident occurred
near the Cook farm, when E. T. Ha-
laas was compelled to dash into
team in order to prevent his auto
turning turtle of grade. VIM.
Blake, the mail carrier, was driving
the team as Mr.. Halaas came up
from behind. The auto shot along
several feet with two wheels of the
grade and had just started to turn
over when Mr.. Halaas turned the
wheels and the heavy machine lung
ed back onto the grade. The front
guard rail caught the hind legs Of
one Of the horses, breaking its leg.
Mr.. Blake was thrown from the bug
gy, but sustained no injuries. The
pole Of the buggy was broken, also
one wheel. Before the turn back
onto the grade was made a lot OF
merchandise that Mr.. Halaas was
taking to the farm was thrown from
the bottom Of the machine, so far
had it turned over. It was found
necessary to kill the horse. Mr.. Ha-
laas made arrangements Immediately

animal. Postmaster Halaas paid
Mr.. Blake literally for the loss Of the
horse, also for repairs to the buggy.

LABOR WAS H0NORED
BY MANY SPEAKERS
INTERESTING PROGRAM HELD AT
JAMESTOWN'S OBSERVANCE
OF LABOR DAY-GOV.
HANNA SPOKE.

Several hundred residents of this
city attended the picnic and heard
the speeches at the celebration of La
Dor day held under the auspices Of
Jamestown Union No. 12,018 of the
Federation of Labor, at Klaus park.
The program included excellent ad-
dresses by Gov. Hanna, President
Kroeze, Judge Hemmi, and States At
torney Chase, while Judge Knauf act
ed as master of ceremonies. The
addresses were preceded by a bounti-
full dinner served beneath the trees
to the members of the federation and
special invited guests, while many
others brought basket luncheons.
Athletic games and sports followed
the addresses.
Arriving on belated No. 4, Gov.
Hanna was unable to be present at
the dinner, but, introduced by Judge
Knauf as a pioneer resident of North
Dakota, a man who had picked the
rock and followed the plow and bind
er upon the farm, and been a success
in a career that might we'll be emu
lated by every Industrious and intel
ligent young man, Gov. Hanna ad-
dressed the audience Interestingly
and at length. He told of his pioneer
days in Steele and Cass counties,
pointing out the wonderful growth Of
North Dakota in the past 80 years,
due almost entirely to labor. Labor,
he said, has made this state, built it's
schools and churches, and so the citi-
zens on this day could do nothing bet
ter than celebrate Labor day. Gov.
Hanna called attention to the influx
of the poorer classes of southern Eu-
ropean laborers, a great contrast to
the early settlers who came from
northern Europe, the Germans, Scan
dinavians, English, Irish, and urged
"a protection for: labor 1as we'll as ,for
the farmer and his products. North
Dakota, he showed, has been especial
ly fortunate in its fine type Of immi-
grants, and this state is proud, he
said, not only of its crops and cattle
but of it's boys and girls and men and
women.
The governor spoke upon organized
labor and urged cooperation among
the organizations; also similar or
ganization amongst farmers. The
Federation of Labor, he said, is pro-
duct of the times, an effort by the la
boring class to reach higher plane.
Here the governor turned aside to

Of pumpkins, with markings sketched in

witches on brooms. bats and SO on may
dot other invitations.
You could decorate the house with corn
stalks. chrysanthemuns and bunting.
Weird JACKIE lanterns made Of pumpkins
with horrible faces should be numerously
supplied. Table decorations are easily
made.
For a center piece fill a toy wooden
washttyb with rich red apples. Around
the tub place little black paper witch
cats dancing paw In paw. Use heavy
paper. large lamp shade may be made
of rich red paper ornamented with black
cats. Make place cards from the black
cats. Mount them standing on plain
white card by bending a strip of card
board at right angles and FASTING to the
back OF the cat and the surface of the
card Write the guest name upon the
card. For the table candles make shades
from oranges with the pulp removed and
a face cut in like JACKIE lanterns. Cut
n disk of cardboard to fit over the candle
and rest upon the top hange or the
candlestick. This will support the IAN
