One of the products of Minnesota in
the way Of celebrities, who first saw
the light Of day at Sank Center, is
Fred w. Carpenter, the United States
minister to Siam. Reports from that
distant progressive little kingdom
state that Mr.. Carpenter is making an
excellent record.
Mr.. Carpenter was secretary to
William H. Taft during the latter's
term as governor of, the Philippine is
lands and later al secretary of war.
When Judge Taft a elected presl-
lent of the United States in 1908, he
appointed Mr.. Carpenter secretary TO
the president, the Sost now filled by
Joseph P. Tumulty.
A year after Judge Taft's term as
president had begun, he named Mr..
carpenter as minister to Morocco and
later the state department felt his
presence was more greatly needed in
siam at the time Of the Persian
crisis.
MT. Carpenter is very American in
spirit and recently he held a patriotic

NO TRACES OF
ERSkINE BABE
BLOoDHoUNDs ON SCENT TODAY
-kIDNAPING THEORY =
Is SUGGESTED. az

Erskine, Mimi, Sept. 6.-Yesterday's
search for Beaulah Ganzhorn, the
2R -year-old child Of William CAM
horn, who disappeared Wednesday aft
ernoon, ended without success, though
about 200 men were engaged in the
hunt the entire day.
Searchers have abandoned the
theory hat the child has fallen prey
to the panther, supposedly at large in
this territory, and the fact hat they
failed to find any trace Of the child
today has led to the theory of a pos
sible kidnapping, though no suspicious
persons were seen in this district the
day Of her disappearance.
Trained blodhounds are due to
reach here tonight and they will be
placed on the trail in the morning,
but success is doubtful because = of
rains.
Today's search was systematic and
covered the entire district that the
child could possibly have strayed to.

PAPER SHOULD SELL
ON ITS MERITS.

Brinsmade Star: In speaking of
a subscription contest Of a news
paper a Fargo business man tells
The Fargo Forum that the "circu-
lation of a newspaper attained by
these contests is not the desirable
kind, as the greater percentage of
the new subscribers are subscrip-
tons which, were given to contest
ants by friends and not the kind
of subscribers that read the paper
because they really want the pa
per in the home. This is just the
exact stand The Star editor has
always taken on the subscription
contests, and I'VE have always en-
deavored to produce a.spaper that
will sell on it's merits rather than
on the popularity or the pull of
some candidate. If we cannot pro-
duce such a paper we are willing
to fall by the wayside in the at
tempt.

gets a pound or two. For one very
elaborate and beautiful model of a.
cathedral he was paid as much as

pounds a year by cutting the clever

"Other patients are equally skilled

from inventing toys and puzzles to-
making watches and picture frames,

NORTHERN PACIFIC
RELEASES LANDS
NJ. p. RAILROAD NOT ONLY RE.
LEASED ALL RIGHT OF WAY
" PROPERTY IN CASS COUNTY
NOT IN USE BUT IN ALL CoUN-
TIES IT TRAvERsEs IN STATE.

Quit claim deeds were filed this week
in the Office of Register Of Deeds
Fraser by the Northern Pacific rail-
road eastern land agent, which clears
all clouds in any titles which have
since been disposed Of by the railroad
or any other parties owning them to
their present owners.
This affected all the land once OBJ
tanned by the Northern Pacific rail
road in the county for right Of way
purposes which have not been used for
that purpose. At the time it was not
known that similar quit claim deeds
had been filed in the offices Of the
registers of deeds in all counties in
the state which are traversed by the
Northern Pacific railroad.
Some weeks ago Governor Hanna
too this matter up with Howard
Elliott, former president of the North
ern Pacific railroad, to have the con-
dition righted. In reply to his effort
IN this matter he received the fol-
lowing communication from J. M.
Hughes Of st. Paul, eastern land agent
of the railroad which reads:
st. Paul, Aug. 81, 1918.
Hon. L. B. Hanna, Governor Of
North Dakota, Bismarck. N. D.
Dear Sir: Please refer to your
correspondence with President Elliott
with reference to issuance of quit
claim deeds for release of right Of way
reservations contained in deeds issued
by this company and the Northern
Pacific Railroad Co., covering lands
in North Dakota.
We have now prepared an instru-
ment releasing the right of way re-
~serVation where it's railroad is at
present constructed and same is be-
ing placed Of record in the several
counties in North Dakota, east of the
Missouri river, affected.
This, | trust, will clear the situa-
ton to all concerned.
Yours truly,

Eastern land Agent"
Years g when the Northern Pac-
ifiC sold their lands in North Dakota
east Of the Missouri river, they reserv-
ed a 200 foot right of way through
all of the land. In of
this there has been a cloud in the
title Of practically all railroad land
which has been sold since by the N.
Z.
By these quit claim deeds this will
be done away with entirely, the cloud
on the titles removed and should the
railroad build over IN of the lands
formerly owned by them in the state
they will have to pay for it the same
as they would for any land.
