IL has been the intention OF John L..
McNab. the then district attorney, TO
try both Digs and Caminetti for con.
spiracy TO violate the Mann act. This
plan, however, was abandoned when
Sullivan and Roche were named to
act, and Diggs, the first TO be tried,

five years in prison on conviction on

that the school will start quite COM

PRODUCE fine CROP
FINE CROP GROWN NEAR MINOT
WHICH WILL BE SHIPPED TO
EASTERN MILLS.

Quite large area was sown to
buckwheat in this vicinity last spring
and some fne crops are reported, but
the growers find it impossible to get
the buckwheat manufactured into
-four here.
There isn't buckwheat mill in
North Dakota and about the only ex-
elusive mill in the middle west is To-
Gated at Janesville, Wis. The local
growers will have to ship the product
east to be ground.
w. E. Dunnell, of the Minot Flour
Mill, informs us that it would cost
about $4,000 to install the right kind
of machinery for grinding this pro-
duct, and Of course, there isn't enough
buckwheat grown in this part of the
state to warrant such an expenditure.
While there isn't anything that
tastes better than buckwheat pancakes
on cold winter morning, but COM
paratively small amount of this -four
is used. A buckwheat mill with a
capacity of so barrels a day would
come near supplying the country from
Minot west to the coast.
VIM. Parker, A. J. Brunner and w.
81 Shaw have all grown some fine
buckwheat this year. Mr.. Brunner
believes his crop averaged fully 80
bushels per acre. -Advices from the
east tel US that buckwheat is higher
than usual this year by about 25 cents
per cwt.

age his store while he transacted bus
mess in Minot. When he returned
home 3fter several days absence, he
found the store locked and the young
men gone. In looking over his stock,
he missed considerable merchandise,
besides they had taken some money
from the till. He believes they took
fully ms in currency and merchan-
disc.
Campbell swore out warrant for
the fellows and they were located by
Sheriff Kelley, at Norwich. They had
sent two grips to Minot with orders to
express them to Norwich and in this
way they were located. At the time of
the arrest, the grips had not yet ar
rived at Norwich.
The men claim that they took IS
each, money they had coming from
Campbell for wages, at $500 per day.
Their story sounds fishy, as Campbell
claims they had promised to await his
return, and that they had made no
demands for their wages.
