ARTIFICIAL LAKES TO
STOP HOT WINDS, PLAN

Mandan, N. D., Dec. 19.-Damming
all small streams to produce lakes
from which the water will ~evaporate,
Is the cure suggested for hot winds
that are an annual menac to the
crops Of North Dakota. George Leon
ard, formerly of New Salem, believes
that is the solution of the problem.
Even where there are no streams he
would place dams instead Of culverts
under graded roads to hold the rain.
water till it would evaporate natural
~. These pools would result in a rap
id growth Of trees which would also
be valuable for the same purpose. He
secuted the idea that such pools
might u epidemics of sickness or
myriads of mosquitoes and claimed
the volume of the water could easily
be controlled so it would not damage
the roadways nor flood more land than
desired by putting small overflow Gull
verts at the top Of the maximum
height at which water was desired,
In this way the water from the spring
snow thaWs and excessive rains could
be converted into an aid to the farm
and a protection that would almost
insure good crops.

THIRD jim JAM TRIAL

Bismarck. N. D., Dec. ia great
deal of interest is expressed over the
state on the third trial of Sam Clark
and his partner, Crockard, of tho Jim
lam Jems at Bismarck. They were
indicted by the federal grand jury for
matter contained in the magazine and
several news dealers over the United
States got into trouble for selling the
publication. The first trial resulted in
a disagreement, In the section before
Judge Willard Of Minnesota. the jury
convicted but recommended the de-
PENDANTS to the mercy of the court.
Judge Willard. imposed a p%enitentiary
sentence instead Of q fine as had been
anticipated. There will be a third trial
here Jan. IA. The chief contentious of
the defendants against the second
trial in which they were convicted are
that an attorney was admitted as a
juror and that he was a personal enc
my Of the defendants, and that Judge
Willard admitted only excerpts in the
evidence and not full sentences and
paragraphs and the contest to show
the intent Of Objectionable phrases.

/. A pleading in a Justice court
need not be IN any particular form so
long as 1t enables a person of ordinary
understanding to know what is in

or written. Section 1878 r. c.. 1905. In
the case at bar the complaint was oral
but a summons contained a complete
statement Of the facts relied upon.
The Justices docket made mention Of
the fact that the said pleading was
oral and referred to the and
it's contents. Held, that q demurrer. to
the complaint on the grounds that it
was not in writing was properly over

Of the boat might furnish a clue to the
identity Of the men.
The authorities anticipate hat the
publicity given the discovery of the

some tangible clue. Some community
may have noted the mysterious dis
appearance Of one or more men from

some time departed for a Journey

reconciled to the removal of the coun-

official figures showing the actual cost
of the new courthouse in which his
previous estimates were confirmed and
the figures of the advocates of remov-
al shown to be less than half the ac-
tual cost. More recently the veteran
editor has taken up another phase Of
the question. He asserts the removal

long series of misrepresentation for
many years eliminating in the last

There were four one-inCh holes in

space under the stern seat was filled
full OF sand which anchored it to the
bottom with bow up, in about seven
