DECISION IN THE M'DERMOTT-
FLYNN CONTROVERSY LATE
,YEsTERDAY-DEcIsIoN FAVoRs
CLAIM AND COUNTER CLAIM.

Judge Pollock rendered a decision
late yesterday in favor of the mechan-'
les lien claim of McDermott & Green
shields against William II. Flynn and
also granted the counter claim of
Flynn vs. McDermott G. Greenshields.
Some time since McDermott &
Greenshields filed suit against Flynn
under the mechanics lien act, for $3.50
due their firm for contract work on a
house belonging to Flynn. Flynn made
a counter claim against the above firm,
claiming that the work done was not
up to specifications and sued for the
same amount, $3.50. .. .......
Judge Pollock ordered the payment
Of the claim against Flynn, and after
adjourning the court to the house
where the above mentioned work had
been done and inspecting the build
ing thoroughly, ordered the payment
of. Flynns claim against the contrac-
tors. AS each sued for the same
amount, it is presumed that the ulti-

CUSTOMS men
MAKE ARREST

Hallock, Mimi, Aug. 22.-For some
time it has been suspected that SNUG
Cling has been going on along the Ca
madam border in Kittson county, or
both sides of the line, but either
through oversight of some of the au-
thorities or the cunningness of parties
involved. no arrests had been made
until Saturday, when Collector of Gus
toms Judson LaMoure, George Foulke
and two plain clothes detectives ap-
peared in Hallock with warrants
which were served on several promi-
nent citizens of this county and it is
said several more will follow as soon
as more evidence is secured.
Detectives as Harvesters.
1t is said that these two plain
clothes men have been working in the
neighborhood for some time as COM
field and using the grubbing ak, and
by this method have secured the evil
dence which led to the arrests. These
men were, employed in the vicinity of
Lancaster and Orleans, from which
points this smuggled property has
been shipped to eastern markets.
From what can be learned the rec
ords Of the 500 railroad will be used
to show that these points have a ship
ping record far IN excess or any
towns their size in this part of the
state. Among the number charged
with defrauding the government, are
one or two eX-county officials of Kilt
son county and several prominent
farmers, business men and ranchers,
and the property dealt in includes
horses, cattle and grains.
Going on For Years.
1t is a we'll known fact that prices
for these products are generally high
er here than across the line and for
this reason this illegal trade has been
going on for several years and appar-
emily undisturbed by the authorities.
The district lying along the border
from st. Vincent and Emerson to
Warroad Is ideal for carrying on such
traffic. The land is covered with
scrub and small timber and the paths
and roadways leading in every direc-
. ton. afford shelter and hiding places.
The stock of farmers living close to
the line mingle together and the
wheat bins are accessible for any one
crossing the line.
The people living on both sides of

half way between these two points,

this was closed some time ago. Since
then any one wanting to report any

to travel either to ST Vincent or War

times of fifty miles. In former years
the government employed mounted
runners along the border in this terri

and the practice was abandoned. It
was in this part of the country that

HUNGER STRIKE
BUSTED AT MINOT

Minot, N. D.. Aug. 22.-The
hunger strike of the bullpen
and city jail prisoners, which started
when the prisoners declared them
selves insulted by being offered beans
to eat, is busted"
A couple of the prisoners got the
colly-wobbles after fasting couple
of hours and were induced to fill up
their stomachs with food of a. nutri-
tious character--such as beans. This
stunt was catching and before the
night was over several of the "mar
tyrs" We're gorging themselves on cof-
fee and sandwiches. Some of them
had real good appetites, too. ..-.
Outside of their yelling and singing
the bullpen and city Jail prisoners
behaved very nicely until last night
They got real naughty then and
smashed down one of the doors in the
prison. The authorities told them to
cease the dirty work or they would
be spanked. They obeyed.
Davis Issues Statement.
President Davis of the city, issued
the following proclamation: E~.
To the people of Minot: I am in
formed that some of our citizens have
asked why the I. w. w. are not per-
mitted to organize. To this I want
to say that the authorities have at no
time had any disposition to prevent
their organization. We are not at
tempting to stop free speech and the
leaders of this lawless bunch know
that there has been no attempt to
ordered that public speaking on the
streets at this time will not be per-
smitted. l am informed that they
speak in a certain hall on Fourth
street, and one of the citizens offers
the large auditorium at Spring Lake
parry in this city absolutely free, where
they may hold meetings and organize.
There will be no interference by the
authorities il they will meet, speak or
organize in some hall provided there
is no disorderly conduct, and the
authorities will protect them, if neces-
sary, and see to it that they are per-
mitted to hold their meetings without
interference. The leaders of this law
less movement know there is no in
herent or constitutional right inter-
fered with; they know they have no
constitutional right to hold meetings
! in the streets, and when they have
been permitted to use the streets for
public speaking, 1T has been through
courtesy or sufferance. No person can
claim it as a right. The streets are
not dedicated for any purpose other
than traffic and use Of pedestrians
These men are not fighting for free
speech for they have 1T; they are
fighting against law and order and the
right of the authorities to control. !
appeal to all good citizens to uphold
law and order and to refrain from
congregating on the streets In the
evenings and to willingly obey the or
der to ''move on" The authorities
are only trying to maintain order. All
good citizens will aid the authorities
in SO doing.
