Alleged f0rger Bound
over to District Court
N. YOFFEY WHO CAUGHT THE
PROSECUTING OFFICER WITH
PHONY CHECK HAS
HEARING.
(From Saturdays Daily.)

M. Yoffey, the alleged forger who OBJ
tanned the endorsement of the states
attorney to check that was not good,
is languishing in the county Jail as a
result of hearing before Judge Moe
and will remain there until his case
$4,000 bail which the court decided was
about the right amount for MIN to de-
post in order to gain his liberty
Deputy Sheriff Kelly brought back
the prisoner who was captured at
Larimore after he had been located
there. The young man claimed when
here to be representing the Fargo
Metal and Iron Works and since it
was known that he was related to
some members of the company it was
an easy matter for him to obtain an
endorser for the check which was
taken without question.

Street Improvement
Needed In This City

The heavy rains of the past few
days have caused a great deal Of mud
owing to the digging that has been
under way for the sewer gas mains
and telephone wiring. The mud is
rather trying but it is hoped that it
will only he few short years now I'M
til Main street and Fifth avenue at
least will lbe paved. Many smaller
towns have paved streets and Valley
City citizens may look forward to
that as the next big improvement in
the city.

Is On the Wdrpath
NEW SPECIAL BULLETIN FOR
OCTOBER GOES HARD AFTER
DEALERS IN BAKING POWDERS
URGES A BROADER BUSINESS;
HONESTY.

State Pure Food Commissioner Ladd
is on the warpath again after the
dealers in baking powders
In August he issued special bulle-
tin giving the results of the investiga-
tons that had been conducted and
permitting the retention of some kinds
that contained albumen, under certain
conditions:
There have been so many misrepre-
sensations, he claims, that another
special bulletin has been issued in
which the issues are more clearly de-
fined and he calls attention to many
forms Of deception alleged against the
representatives of the concerns under
the ban in this state.
The commissioner makes a plea for
broader business honesty and fairer
methods by the manufacturers and as
serts the plans pursued by some of the
manufacturers are too much along the
lines adopted by the manufacturers Of
certain patent medicine nostrums.
The commission intimates that if
there is not change in the line Of
advertising being put out the new
North Dakota advertising law, which
provides a penalty for misleading
statements, will be invoked.
