Bisbee N. D., May 1.-THE county

the eldest son came from the field and
on entering the house failed to see
his mother about and noticed that no

for the bank as much as one per cent
more than the bank pays him. If it
did, some rival savings bank would
jump the rate of dividend until the
general rate was raised to a point
where the banks profit would cease to
be excessive.
I saw some tables of earnings Of
the commercial banks throughout the
country the other day. Before I re-
fer to them 1 want to remind you
that the commercial banks, in the ma
ture of things, are able to earn more
on their deposits than the savings
banks. And those tables Of earnings
revealed the fact that even among
the most successful and biggest banks
Il rate of earnings on deposits, capital
stock, and surplus, as high as l IL
per cent a year was exceptional.
So much for the argument that the
bank is getting rich by using your
deposits. Go to a banker you know
pretty well and ask him whether or
not I'm right-then judge the real
value of my get-rich-quick friend 8
talk.

SAVING and INVESTING FOR THE THRIFTY

I wouldn It introduce you to the man

I'd be AFRAID he d try to trim you. L
quote his words TO Illustrate one Of
the fine-sounding but false arguments
the promoters of risky ventures use
in trying to lure money out of your

This man was talking to the man with
a few hundred dollars and Gliding
that man for not making his small
sum earn lot Of money for him ill.,
stead of tucking it away in a savings
bank which pays Inn three and a half
or four per cent interest. Here are his
words:
elf he pauses to think that every
dollar which he deposits in bank
earns far more for the bank than he
gets, he will discover that some one is
taking advantage Of these opportuni-
ties which are offered every day."
That is much-worn lie. If the
small saver puts his money in well
conducted savings bank he may be
absolutely sure that it will not earn

Minot, N. D., May 17--Frank Jack
son, colored man, who has been en-
ployed at the Lexington for some time
past as bell hop, was arrested this
morning on the complaint of Olof A.
Olson, proprietor of the hotel, who
claims that Jackson tried to kill him.
The specific charge against Jackson
is assault with dangerous weapon
with intent to kill.
1t appears that Jackson had been
drinking heavily and demanded some
money from Olson. He is said to have
taken jackknife from his pocket
and while attempting to break in the
door Of Olson's room at the hotel
threatened to kill him. Failing to
bulge the door, he climbed over tn,
transom Olson claims and there con
tinued his threats.

SENSATION OF THE LAST SESSION
OF THE LEGISLATURE TO
BE AIRED,

Ben J. Ness will appear in the dis.
trict court Of Burleigh county May 9
to answer the charge of attempted
bribery, these charges growing out OF
complaints made against him by A.sG.
Divet and L. L. Twichell, members Of
the house of representatives of North
Dakota. Ness is now free under
bonds.
The charges against Ness resulted
from one of the most interesting and
sensational legislative fights in the his.
tory of the state. Ness was arrested
upon the order of the two house
members who charged that he had ap.
preached them with an offer of. 3d.
500 for their influence in the fight
against the anti-snuff bill.
On trial before the bar of the house,
Ness was convicted. Names Of several
prominent legislators, drawn into the
inquiry, were cleared by the house and
the senate, both bodies passing resolu-
tions generating their members.
The anti-snuff fight was at its hot
test when the arrest Of Ness occurred.
Several Wits, Divet and Twichell
charged, were made to them by Ness,
who promised financial remuneration.
In the inquiry the name Of Presi-
dent Rice Of the American Tobacco
company, was brought out. Ness hav-
ing claimed to Divet and Twichell that
he, Rice, had made him a Lobbyist for
the company in the contest against
the measure. Lee Pettibone q name
was also drawn into the controversy.
The day Of Ness arrest the house
Of representatives passed the snuff
bill almost unanimously there being
only few votes recorded against the
measure. =.
Ben Ness has been about Bismarck
most Of the session, being a life insur-
ance agent when he became entangled
in the bribery charges. He denies
that he made any ofer Of money to
the two representatives.
