MOUSE RIVER LOOP ,
BOOSTER MEETING

Lansford, N. D., Oct. 25.-The tenn
porary directors INC officers of the
Mouse River Loop immigration and
Development association will meet at
Lansford next Tuesday afternoon at
l o'clock. This meeting was arrang-
ed for several weeks ago when the
association was organized and it is
expected that. Tuesday afternoon ways
and means will be devised to proper"
ly set forth the claims of the Mouse
river loop as a place where ideal con
ditions eXist'for the advantage of pros
peCtiV4 settlers.
Although it may be impossible to
secure speakers for this meeting, it is
thought that the afternoon can be
profitably spent by the directors and
those who come with them in laying
out the work for the big advertising
campaign. Representatives are eX-
pected from at least sixteen towns in
the loop. and several county commits
sioners of Bottineau county have sig
nified their intention Of being present,
and If properly impressed with the
plass advanced, will try to help in a
material way in the work. While the
meeting is for the purpose Of getting
the directors together, all interested
business men and farmers of the loop
are cordially invited to attend. It will
be an open meeting and every phase of
the plan to influence settlers to the
loop will be freely discussed.
The secretary hoped to secure the
presence of Mr., Leedy of, the Great
Northern railway. Mr.. Lander. presi-
dent of the North Dakota Federation
Of Commercial Clubs, and T P. Davies,
managing editor Of The. Grand Forks
Herald and Times, to speak at this
meeting, but each n Of the gentle
men had a good reason for not &C
cepting the invitation. owing to pres
sure Of other work and engagements.
There are among the directors of the
association men of wide and varied
experience, men who can talk, men
who have the best interests of the
loop at heart, and there is no good
why this meeting should not be
interesting and bring about the de-
sired ends. Nc attempt will be made
by the Lansford Commercial club in
the matter of entertainment, for the
officers Of the club realize that there
is work to do and that all the time
available will be taken Up.
1t begins to look as if the whole
loop is aroused. Many farmers have
signified their intention of contribut-
ing in whatever way they can, to the
success of the enterprise, land and
loan companies are coming to the front
with offers of assistance, and some OF
the smaller towns in the loop have
already set the pace in the matter of
liberal proposed contributions to fur
Their, the work of the association. 1t
seems that all realize that something
must be done at once to bring the
claims of the loop as a region of vast
and varied resources before the peo-
pie of the crowded east. The trans
mission period is upon US and we must
take every means at our disposal to
secure that class of settlers who will
do diversified farming and bring the
loop into its own.
good and that this meeting Will be
well attended. All the directors are
especially urged to: be present and
bring those with them when they
think may be of use to the association.

NEWS OF THE NORTHWEST
IMPORTANT POINTS
IN SUIT AGAINST 500

Ryder, N. D., Oct. 25.-An interest
ing suit has been brought by an in
surance company against the 500 road
on a car of wheat shipped from this
station. Just before the Occident ele-
vator at this place was burned in 1911.
a car of wheat had been loaded and a
Dill Of lading was given by the agent
to the elevator man. The car caught
hre from he elevator and burned. The
insurance company paid the loss and
now sues the 500.
Several things hinge on the suit. The
insurance company claims that when
the road gives the bill of lading it
Immediately becomes responsible for
the safety Of the shipment. The 500.
contends the giving of the bill of lad
ing at night meant nothing except to
save time for the elevator man, and
1t should not be responsible for the
car except for a reasonable time prior
to the train leaving the depot. 1t also
contends that In the lease of the roads
right of way to the elevator company
1t is specifically stated the road is not
responsible for any damages occurring
on the leased property. The insurance
company insists that with the giving
of the bill of lading the grain passed
from the hands of the elevator to that
Of the road and the road must pay the
loss.

Pure Food Candy is essential to
health of the children and the
manufacturers Of Fargo recognize
this fact and their products are in
compliance with the pure, food
laws of the state. The one factory
that stands out in the northwest
for the excellence of their output
and the cleanliness Of their factory
Is that Of the CLANCY Eyerhart
Co., of Fargo, and each trip Of
their travelling men sees large in
creases in the orders for the best
of candies. They have grown rap
idly in the past year and their bus
mess for this Christmas season
bids fair to exceed any other year.
The orders are pouring in and Mr..
CLANCY anticipates difficulty in
filling the late orders. The stand
ard of their goods is such that they
ang among the best in the coun-
try. They employ a number Of
people the year round and their
factory is one of the busy spots
of Fargo. Their higher grades Of
chocolates are put up in handsome
pound, half pound and larger box
es and no stock is complete that
does not contain an assortment Of

of any kind be sure and call for
their brands and you will not only
get the best but aid in building up

STRONG CASE AGAINST
The RAY MURDERER

Minot, N. D., Oct. IS. - A perfect
case seems to have been gathered
against Maurice Culbertson, the alleg-
ed murderer in the awful, tragedy
which took place at Ray, N. D., Tues
day night In which a man, his wife
and step daughter were brutally shot
down.
The only one of the three living is
the husband Of the family who was
shot four times and who lies dying at
a Williston hospital. The alleged
murderer was brought to his bed
side and it is said that Dillon the
wounded man, identified Culbertson
as the man who had fred the shots.
In the bedroom of the murdered
woman is a picture showing herself
and a man resembling Culbertson
standing together. This picture was
taken about thirteen years 6 and
the neighbors claim Mrs, Dillon has
often pointed 1t out as a picture of her
former husband and herself which
was taken on their wedding day.
The man in the picture shows a
striking resemblance to ;Culbertson
and it is thought very probable that
he is the man.
The. motive of the crime seems to te
revenge. Neighbors testify that Mrs.
Dillon had often spoke of her former
husband and his cruelty and the
threats which he had made since she
procured her divorce.
1t seems that the man became
angered in the barn at Dillon on the
~latter's refusal to allow him to stay
ell night and fred foul shots into his
back. He then rushed to the house
meeting the wife on the path to the
barn where she had hurried at the
sound of the shots. He placed a bull
let through her breast killing her in
stantly and then followed into the
bedroom where his own daughter was
getting ready for bed. As she turned
to face him, he shot her through the
ihead the IL year old girl, dying a few

must pay the value placed in advance
on the animal selected. Then No. 2
makes his selection. After each man
has made a selection No. 1 starts in
again. In this way no man could
select but n animal at a time and
there was little choice in the matter.
This prevented ill-feeling over ap-
"portionment of the cows.
The grade Holsteins have cost from
$55 to $40 each plus the freight. The
thOroughbreds brought from $3.50 to
5000 per head and freight. Thorough
bred bulls cost from 5000 up to $500,
depending on the class Of the animal.
Growing into cattle instead Of going
into debt is the slogan of Director
Cooper. He urges the farmers to
start in a small way and gradually
work into the business instead of
spending large sums and purchasing
great herds before they understand
how to handle them or to conduct the
diaries.

hours later without regaining con-
seriousness.
He evidently hurried on foot to
Ray, thinking that the tragedy would
not be discovered until the next day,
and registered at a hotel in that city.
He caught the hind baggage a little
later on No. 4 coming east but was
pulled off and arrested by Freight
Conductor Herkelroad who received a
tip from the operator at a little sta
ton called Temple, seven miles east
of Ray that the man might be on
No. 4. He was rushed to White Earth
where he was jailed Owe night and
then taken to Wllliston In the morn
ing.
In the meatime, a neighbor by the
name of Take heard calls for help
coming from the Dillon farm and at
ter going to the barn found Dillon in
the barnyard where he had dragged
himself following the shooting. Dill
on was shot twice in the back and
twice in the face and neck but was
not rendered unconscious and with
seeming superhuman strength, manag-
ed to crawl from the barn and call
for help. 1t had been nearly two
hours since the shooting before Drake
appeared.
The entire country side was aroused
and a diligent search made for the
murderer, and had it not been for the
strong posse heavily armed which
guarded the Jail at White Earth, the
man would probably have been lynch
ed by the frenzied citizens.
Culbertson denies emphatically that
he was even near the scene of the
crime but the evidence is very strong
against him and if Dillon lives long
enough to make his naturalization
positive. the man will probably swing.
