H0MESEADER
KILLED SELF
Presumed He Was Despondent
Had Injury Before and May
Have Been Insane.

Manning, ~ d., July 8.-John J.
Sampson, 9 bachelor farmer commit
ted suicide at his farm nea here.
Coroner Smith, Sheriff Kaspar and
Undertaken Price went to the Samp-
son home and found the body lying
upon the floor of the shack and a 49,
colibre revolver near. The shot was
fired through the right temple, the
'5ullet passing through the, brain. and
out through the top of the head at
the junction of the frontal and two
p~arietals.
He was last cen alive by members
of the Johnson family when he was
at work on his farm. Mrs. Johnson
heard three shots fired at the Samp-
son house and the deed Is supposed
to have been committed at that time.
Deceased was about forty years Of
age and had been drinking heavily
for a considerable length of time. 1t
seems that several years ago he was
shot in the head and his temporary
arrangement may have been due
more or less to this cause. In a let
ter left for States Attorney earns he
stated that he had done wrong and
vas sorry for it.
The remains were brought to Nam
ming and prepared for burial and TAX
en- charge Of by a brother, Samuel ].
Sampson, who lives four miles west
of town.

WRITES LETTER
FROM VERA CR0z
Sergeant Rock Who Formerl,
Made Bismarck His Home
Tells Of Conditions.

In a very interesting letter from
Vera cruz, Mexico, Sergt. John w
Rock of the Seventh infantry u. s.
A., has this Illuminating paragraph
in regard to the financial situation
down there at the present time.
This place q. the present writing
Is the picture of good will and con
tentment, and about the only excite.
ment Is the regularity with which the
natives are pursuing our gold dollars
and hiding them from view, charging,
as is the custom after American oc-
cupation, three prices for everything.
However, cannot blame them as
their money at the present time is ON
an exchange rate of three for one and
very --..e except paper in circulation,
the latter having a good chance Of
worthless at any change Of
fortune which Is to come sooner; or
later. It is not hard, however, to
read between the lines, SO to speak,
and e that there is a seething vol
cano within a few miles OF the city
which, by any rash or accidental act,
may become active at q monments's
notice."
Sergeant Rock was for two years
assigned to militia duty with the
North Dakota National guard and was
for a number of months stationed at
Bismarck. He left late last fall to
join his regiment ON the border. He
is a big man both mentally and ply
sically, and his friends in the guard
only measured by the size of the
guard. Because of his capacity and
peculiar adaptioi' to circumstances
his ability was Dol recognized at
Vera Cruz and he is now holding
down q very important position at
brigade headquarters.

GET ACQUAINTED tour
Cooperation Between City and
Rural Committees is Keystone
to Prosperity.

A new style OF our has grown up
in eastern North Dakota. 1t is term
ed a Tour of Better Acquaintance and
Cooperation, and was first instituted
by the, Commercial club of Grand
Forks early last summer. Instead of
rushing through the country 'by auto
mobiles without stops, or going out
by train to solicit trade, the Grand
Forks men decided that what they
wanted was to know their neighbors
better; to get acquainted with the
men and women of a community and
with their town, so they have arrang-
ed . series of n and two-day auto
mobile tours, where thirty to forty
automobiles take a party of 100 to
l25 business and professional men,
to a group of towns where the party
spends from IL minutes to an hour
and i half in meeting the people of
that town and exchanging ideas with
them. Cooperation is necessary be-
fore our North DAKOTA communities
can be built up to their Jest useful
ness, and acquaintance and under
standing are necessary before we can
have full cooperation. When we
know each other, we find that we can
work together without jealousy or
friction and that is the kind Of work
that counts for a state or q commun-
ity.
The Grand Forks Commercial club
will furnish an outline of their plan
together with samples of their litera-

Western Business Men Are Con.
fident that no Trouble Will
Be Experienced.

Chicago, July 8.-TLe biggest crops
of all kinds ever harvested in the
United States this autumn will find
an abundance of money ready in Chi
cago and other centers move them;
prosperity spelled in capitals is GER
tain to be felt very soon. This Is
the opinion expressed by heads of
western business houses whose po-
litical activity does not blind them,
Regardless of party there is express
cd belief that the period Of house
cleaning is about over, with it's re-
ownership and failures, and boom
times soon will again be upon all
kinds of business but "Wildcatting."
Leading bankers today stated that
money is already moving to the
Northwest and South in large guam.
titles to take car of tho crops. John
v. Farwell, head of m of the largest
dry goods wholesalers In the west
and a recognized authority on econ
omics said: "The biggest crops are
reported and the railroads have ar
ranged to handle the produce as fast
as it is delivered. Our markets are
waiting to receive the shipments and
the bankers are anxious to get their
reserve cash into circulation. The
next move is distribution of products
and money SO that prosperity will be
brought to every individual. That
such prosperity will come within q
short while is reasonably certain"
Recently Chairman E. H. Gary OF the
United States steel Corporation pre-
dicted a great business boom during
the autumn.

Union, not a single state went as
high. as six per cent : year. From
1900 to 1910 Washington made the
greatest per cent OF gain per year, its
rate being II per cent; Oklahoma,
next with II per cent and Idaho
was third with 10 per cent. Nevada
fourth with = per cent, and North
Dakota was fifth. For the four years
ending 1914 all four of, the states men,
toned have dropped to between five
and six per cent while North Dakota
has gained within q very small frac-
ton Of five per cent. In other words
North Dakota has made the best
showing with regard to steady and
consistent gain Of any states.
Iowa again shows q loss in popula.
tion as she did in 1910. The middle
western states such as Illinois and In
diana show small gains Of less than
ono per cent a year and the eastern
record for the fourteen years of all
of all Of them.

DOUBLED EoRcE Of MEN

Schafer, M d, July S.-A number
of 500 surveyors have been at work
for Z week or more In the vicinity Of
Mimmick lake north of town. 1t is
reported on good authority that the
contractors who have. the work of
grading the 500 line from near Plaza
to the Missouri river, have doubled
their force Of men and have orders to
rush the work. This fact and the
fact that surveyors are working in
this vicinity would indicate that the
500 contemplpates pushing their line
into the county. 1t is said that
bridge material is being hauled over
land from Plaza to the crossing on
the Missouri river.

This is a gain Of about five per cent
a year and is practically as good a
gain as is shown by any state in the
