DUNES Address Feature oi
Governors Meeting

Colorado Springs, Aug. 2s.The fea-
ture Of today's session of the con-
ference of governors was an address
by Governor Dunno of Illinois who
spoke on the Growth of the Public
Control of Utilities
His address was an extensive
treatise on the development plan in
the various states, more particularly
since 1905. Concluding, he took up
public ownership and operation as the
only alternative in case of the failure
OF public control.
A statement of Governor Colquitt,
of Texas, that he would "send every
United States soldier, into Mexico to
protect American women if neces-
sary," caused a mild sensation.
II know am treading on dangerous
ground" he said ''but the United
States shouldn't stand idly by while
Americans are being murdered and

and the other ait jamestown, charged
with blowing the postoffice safe open
at Mckenzie, Aug. IA, broke jail late
last night from their respective
prisons and are still at large. |
AT the time of their arrest together,
on the above charge they pleaded not
guilty and were remanded to the OH :
ferent jails to await hearing before
the grand jury this fall. At the time
of their incarceration, they both
yboasted that they would not remain in
iail two weeks. They made their
boast good last night by escaping at
the same time and have entirely dis
appeared with no clues in evidence
as to where or in what direction they
went.
FITZPATRICK took the handspring out
of his watch, laboriously contrived
hack saw from the metal and after
saving through the bars of his cell
window, dropped TO the ground out-
side and disappeared No description
has been received as yet by the sheriff
here as to in what manner Rogers
made his escape.
According to G.. j. Stout, deputy
United States marshal for this district,
it is believed here that the two men
worked conjunction with outsidehelp
to make their getaway and 1T is
thought that there has been under

two men, 100 miles apart. On being
sent to jail, they seemed confident
that they would be 3out and both
boasted that. they would be free in
two weeks. The time was up today
and they are now at large.
Every effort possible is being made
by Sheriff Frank Barnes who arrest
ed them, to have them apprehended
and the sheriff Of each county in the
state has been warned to be on the

With thr$shing general throughout

which show that the crop experts"
who killed off the North Dakota crop
one half or more, during the growing
season, were more completely "off'
than they had the crops.
One we'll known Fargoan, who has
lived in North Dakota since pioneer
days, and whose business takes him
into the country frequently, said to
The Forum yesterday that he believed
the state would harvest an average of
fifteen bushels to the acre this year,
which comes within three bushels to
the acre of a normal yield.
Actual yields of from IS to 25
bushels of wheat to the acre are the
general rule in the vicinity Of Far
go.
On the Haggart farm. near Haggart,
a 200 acre field of oats averaged 50
bushels to the acre. A 200 acre field
Of wheat on the same farm gave a
yield of 2S bushels per acre.
One of the most satisfactory phases
of the crop situation this year is the
splendid corn crop. Throughout the

will be the banner year for corn IN
