NEWS OF THE NORTHWEST
ACTION AGAINST
LEEDS DRUGGIST

Leeds. n. D., April 16.-Judge Buttz
the druggists permit held by p, c.
Vornholt, Of Leeds, should not be can
celed. The hearing was set by the Or
der for Minnewaukan. Saturday, May
8, at 10 a. m. The petition and afida-
Wits presented to the court allege,
among other things, that Mr.. VOrnhOit
is not in good faith complying with the
law; one affidavit alleges hat sales Of
wine, whiskey and champagne have
been made in violation Of law without
any afFida Wit, and it Is also alleged on
information and belief that liquors
are being sold to persons who are in
the habit Of becoming intoxicated. d
Judge ButtH has been hearing all
permit cases on their merits, giving
both applicants and opponents an OPP
oOrtunity to present their cases, but is
apparently determined that permits
must not be abused nor the prohibition
laws violated.
NoTnhOlt, who is now in trouble with
his permit, formerly held such a per
nit, later it was changed to his clerk
who was said to have purchased an
interest in the store, and last fall, just
before election and long before the
clerks permit had expired, it was sur
rendered and a new one issued to Mr.,
VOrnholt. This action was vigorously
opposed by States Attorney Sinncss
at the time, but nevertheless the per-
NIT was granted by a former judge.
This is he second hearing set by
Judge Buttz on applications to cancel
permits, the states attorney of RO-
lette county, Mr.. Verret, having re-
Gently commenced action against
Druggist Hendrickson of DunsCith,
hearing on that matter being set at
Rolla for May y.

SPANISH SWINDLE

Grand, Forks, N, D.. April .16.-That
the Spanish letter swindle is being
worked for all that it is worth is evil

Sceived from Minot and ROlla. The
local man, whose experiences with

people who. are trying to put him on

sing dispatch from MinOt indicates
that the swindles evidently think that
the magic city has gUllible inhabi-
tants:
From all indications, Senior Bar
rios, the alleged Russian banker, is
having the hardest kind Of a time to
get rid of his fortune. A short time
ago Senior wrote a long letter to j. A.
&Roell, requesting the Minot man to
come to the bankers rescue and get
him out of Jail. Providing Mr.. ROeil
did this he was to receive a gOOdlN
Sshare Of some $440, 600, which the
banker had hid away in a portman-
5teau. Mr.. ROell evidently forgot all
about the fortune awaiting him, for
yesterday julius Fauchald received a
similar letter. The letter received by
Mr.. Fauchald is almost identiCally the

daughter is still being deprived Of her

Wears ago when the ~swindlers started
in business and unless something
happens soon her romantic days will
be but sweet memories. The letter
TO Mr.. Fauchald was posted at Mad
rid. March 10.
But Minot and Grand Forks are not
alone in receiving attention from the
takers. The following communication
from RolIa is sclf-eXplanatory:

Sufficient to enable a loving father

has been exposed time and again, but
the letters continue to come with
great regularity TO all parts OF the

A century, yes, half a century ago, a
contest between the open country and
the. crowded city for the title of the
healthiest place TO live in would have
been like the race between the tortoise
and the hare. Every advantage, ap-
parently, was on the side of the coun-
try.
Cities were described as pest-holes,
cancers upon the body polite, and we
were solemnly assured that no family,
however vigorous, could survive for
more than three generations in their
pestilent atmosphere.
But, nothing daunted, the busy,
bustling, smoke-clouded, CRIME
smeared, over-crowded, noise deafen-
ed city threw off it's coat and buckled
down to work to make itself a fit
place to live in, and the results are
already beginning to show.

metropolis is from two to three days

The Lackuwanno CooI MELON

SOul
New York World: The Stockholders
OF the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western
Coal Co. got an Unexpectedly fat divi.
dend yesterday when the directors an.
nounced ar extra disbursement of &c
per cent in addition to the regular
quarterly 21s per cent. At this tim
last year the company paid an extra
dividend of 10 per cent. go.
Wall street was much surprised al
the announcement. The anthracite coal
roads have been pleading poverty since
the great strike of last year, when they
were compelled to advance wages. II
mas turned out, however, that the pub
TIC has paid these increased wages, as
early last summer all of the coal roads
increased the price of anthracite coal
by from 20 to so cents a ton.
The profits represented by the extra
dividend were made in a mild winter
when there has not been the usual
emand for coal.
The coal concern was formed by the
LackaWanna railroad In June. 1909, be-
cause or the Hepburn commodity law.
The railroad declared a so per cent cash
dividend in order to allow it's stock
holders to buy the Sc, 500, 900 stock OF
the coal concern. Now the stockhold-
erS OF the Lackawanna railroad not
only receive 20 per Cent regularly from
their railroad stocks, with an oc-
C%asiOnal extra dividend thrown in, but
10 per cent regularly from their coal
stocks and an extra dividend of 20 per
cent this year. In addition the LaCka-
wanna railroad of New Jersey pays
them 4 per cent per annum.
LaokaWanna stock shareholders will
therefore get 81. per cent this year
and this may be augmented by other
extra dividends. In the meantime the
public is paying the highest price or
record for it's coal.
