MYSTERIOUS CUTTING ArFRAY

Mystery surrounds cutting fray
that occurred IN the north outskirts
OF town about two o'clock Thursday
morning. Nothing In known but the
results and they are vague. Az far an
can be learned there we're four part
les In the fight the origin OF which
Is not known. One OF the participants
staggered into the hospital IN an In
toxicated condition about two o'clock
Thursday morning and stated that he
had been worked over" with a parlor
chair. His face was battered beyond
recognition and his left arm was
dislocated He was put to bed for. the
night and left I'm the morning without
giving any name. Ben Arnold, another
of the good time advocates. had his
strange assailant who II IL said mis-
took him from another man. He hid
away some where and has nothing to
say. Another OF the party suffered
three broken ribs and one escaped un-
injured. The affair Is but one OF a
series OF shooting and cutting scrapes
that have occurred lately and are be-
Ing laid to bootleg whiskey.

Ihe fighting was resumed as soon az
Cross reached the sidewalk and termi-
mated by both falling into the gutter
with Rogers underneath his heavier
opponent When he crawled out from
beneath he was seen to have a knife
which had not been noticed before
owing to the darkness. Cross Law
where he fell, bleeding from four
severe cuts the worst of which was
In the pit of the stomach. He was

Use the King road drag. Frequent
use will make roads excellent most of
the time and good all the time.
Make better use of the Aberdeen ex-
pertinent farm.
In answer to a question as to how
county agriculturists were selected,
Mr.. Hochbaum said: II pass on them
first, and then send the names and all
the information as to the experience
and training of each applicant to the
state University. They are passed
upon by the head of the agricultural
department and then sent to the de-
partment of agriculture at Washington
where they are again passed on. BY
this process about twenty-eight out of
every thirty applicants are eliminated
as being unsuitable. Finally we sub
NIT three names to the board of coun-
ty commissioners, giving full details
as to each, and they make the actual
selection. For this county a man
with experience in dry farming is
needed, and he should be able to speak
German.
Mr.. Hochbaum is anxious to have q
county agriculturist employed for
Power county, believeing that it would
be the wisest possible expenditure
that can be made. II one is employed
the expenses will be divided as fol-
lows: United States government
$1,000. Corporations and villages
$3.50; farmers and stockmen, $3.50
This apportionment is based on last
years valuations.
Sentiment for the employment of q
county agriculturist is growing. Peti.
tions are being circulated and will
be presented to the commissioners al
their July meeting. Mr.. Hochbaum
will return sometime during July te
continue his observations.
