would yield bigger dividends than
the imagination can readily picture
But MIR. Pease has evidently given
consideration also to the question
How can a big appropriation fol
good roads be best expended? He
is quoted as saying:
II am going to advocate that the
State Highway Commission he EN-.
powered to go ahead and build good
roads in Minnesota regardless Of the
various road laws. 1t would be the
best investment the state could
make"

Minnesota is after the bridge COM
bine. A special house committee
was set to investigating Minnesota
bridge companies recently and they
report that there is plenty of a com.
bination between the companies do
ing bridge work and offer plans to
check the evil.
This information will be of con.
siderable interest to the people OF
this county for some of the concerns
attacked are the same that have been
picking off thousands of dollars in
the county for years past. The Hen.
nepin Bridge Company is one of the
first to appear in the report and it is
commonly known that this company
has been for years in the lead in
Emmons County record. [volume] (Williamsport, D.T. [i.e. N.D.]) 1884-current, 1915-04-22

bridge contracts In Emmons county.
1T is rather significant the re-
port says, "that practically all
bridge work in Itasca has been done
by the Hennepin Bridge company.
and in the last two years all con-
tracts for tridges in Aitkin county
coating in excess Of $500 have been
awarded to the Minneapolis Bridge
company; while in Norman county
they have all been awarded to the
Security Bridge Company of Mime
apolis; in Wilkin county to the
Great Northern Bridge company.
and in Mcleod and Wabasha coun-
ties to the M. A. Adams Bridge
company"
Many letters from county audi
tors expressing a belief that there ia
a bridge combination. are incorpor-
ated in the report. The practice.
the committee says, is for several
companies to hid on every work.
with the understanding that the
company entitled to jobs In the I
county will be the low bidder.
In Minnesota it is planned to cir.
cumvent the bridge companies by
allowing town and county boards to
secure bridge materials through
the state highway commission.

Put Ban on vato.

1t is recalled that at the papal con.
clave Of 1903. not little sensation
was caused by the revelation that EN-.
peror Francis Joseph of Austria had
ordered Cardinal Puzyna. archbishop
Of Cracow, to pronounce the imperial
veto against the election of Cardinal
Rampolla, who was suspected of be.
Ing friendly to France. On that &C.
casion Cardinal Oreglia stated that
the conclave could not accept such
communication or take 1t into &C.
count. and. although Cardinal Ram.
polla was not chosen. Plus x regarded
the incident with the greatest indig.
nation, and issued bull directing that
any cardinal attempting to repeat the
veto in future would be placed under
the major ban. or be accommodated

Emmons County record. [volume] (Williamsport, D.T. [i.e. N.D.]) 1884-current, 1915-04-22

This nation suffered the loss Of
one of its foremost newspaper men
in the death of William r. Nelson.
the veteran owner and editor of the
Kansas City Star. His greatest eff
forts for good were expended to
benefit his home town. and his course
attracted national attention.
To the writer the death Of the
noted Missourian is of more than
passing interest. While the man
himself was not generally, appre.
ciated among the newspaper frater-
nifty, his newspaper has been gener-
ally held up to reporters as an ideal
city newspaper. 1t has always been
deemed a matter for pride that one
has been reporter on that news.
paper. During the time of our
work as a reporter on q Twin City
newspaper, we have had the Kansas
City Star and its methods held up to
US as the acme of good newspaper
policy. The education of it's repor-
tiers has been unique in the history
of city newspapers. and in keeping
with the general history of the pub
LEGATION.
Until month ago Mr.. Nelson had
active charge of his newspaper and
was only then constrained to give it
up by his fast failing health. He
was recognized as one of the lead
ing editors of the nation. His
views were original and his policy
sharp and defined. He was never a
candidate for political appointive or
elective Offices and, upon one occa.
sion. when mentioned as a possible
appointee of Ex-Presldent Taft as
ambassador to France. he remarked
editorially:
rhe editor of the Star is amply
occupied. sustained and satisfied
with his present job. He regards
himself as holding place of greater
responsibility and usefulness than
any within the gift of the president,
or the electorate Not only has he
never been a candidate, active OF
receptive. for any office. but he never
has asked for the appointment OF
any one else.
No better insight into the char.
acter of the man could be obtained
than is portrayed in those few lines
He worked necessarily for civic bet
torment and all the force of his
powerful newspaper was driven al
crooked and manipulating municip.
al politicians. lie consistently
fought quack doctors. the saloon
control of politics. loan sharks. and
every form of municipal filth. He
was an aggressive prohibitionist anG
won the undying hatred of the ga
loon element in Kansas City. Wher
he knew that his end was near he re-
marked to a friend, just before
lapsing into Inconsistencies:
The Lord has been far better tc
me than | deserve. ! have had {
long life ard happy life with great
opportunities for usefulness. M,

FARM DOCTOR
 FUNDS NEEDED
Petition to Board of Super Visors Being Circulated and Others Will Be Sent Out Asking Support for Farm Advisers Office.

The necessity for funds with which i to continue maintaining the office of the Maricopa county farm advisor, has made it imperative that some thing be done, and in order to aid the work, a number of interested men are circulating this petition:
 Funds Needed for Farm Advisor '.To the Maricopa County Board of
 Supervisors:
 We. the undersigned farmers and business men of Marcopa county, do hereby petition that the county make financial provision so that our Coun- ty Farm Advisor may be retained. We understand that the funds amounting to at least $2000 which have been apportioned to Naricopa county by the University of Arizona College of Agriculture, and the U. $. Department of Agriculture for the maintenance of County Farm Ad-- visor will have to be withdrawn on June 30th unless the county appro- priates at least 5000 for the next fiscal year We have received much benefit from the work of our County Farm Advisor and the other special ists of the University of Arizona Agricultural Extension Service, and believe that this work should be con tinued for the agricultural develop ment of the county. We. therefore. do petition the Board of Supervisors of Maricopa county to appropriate not less than 5000 for the support of our County Farm Advisor for the fiscal year July l, 1915 to June 30, 1916, as permitted by law"
 A similar petition to the governors and council of the Salt River Valley Water Users Association is being circulated. Since 5000 from Mari copa county will be needed to main tain the farm advisory work now under way in the valley. and because the state law does not permit the supervisors to appropriate more than S100O per year for the pupose. it will be necessary to secure 5000 from some other source, if the work is to be continued

MEXICAN ATTEMPTS ID
 KILL WIFE WITH AXE
Double Blessedness Appears to be Better Than Single, But Wife Balks and is Rewarded
 With Axe

Two wives or none at all, is the plan that Jesus Alcalan is alleged to have attempted to put into effect in the past few days.
 Alcalan has for a number of years his common law wife Apparently they have gotten along with only the usuil amount of troubles peculiar to he married state. until lately. upon the completion of their new house
 The woman put up the funds to erect the house, but Alacalan drew up the plans, and carefully watched the carrying out of his long cherish ed dream. which was to have the house divided into compartments. one of which was to serve as the home of f'Refugio. and the other side was to house another wife. preferably young and pretty one.
 Becoming aware of her husbands plans, to divide his affection, she remc nstrated with him, and said words to the effect that "There was rothin' doing"
 Enr2ged at the baking of his plans, Alcalan is alleged to have taken an axe and made several passes at the head of his single spouse She resented this consider ably, and reported the matter to the police who had a warrant sworn out in Justice DeSouza'S court Up to lare hour last night he had not been located. but it was expected tllat he would fall into the drag net that county officers had out for him.
