Innocent Man May Be
Serving Prison Term

St. Paul, Des. 20.-That Frank H.
Kethman, serving a life sentence in
Saltwater for the murder Of DR.. T.
S. Egge at Moorhead, Mimi, Sept. 6,
1909, did not kill DR.. Egge, but that the
real murderer is living at Houston,
Mimi, and has confessed, was the
startling situation outlined today to
Attorney General Lyndon A. Smith.
Through letters received by C. A.
Nye, now district judge at Moorhead,
who was one of the attorneys for the
defense in the trial, the information
is being followed up. Attorney Gen
eral Smith was one of the attorneys
for the prosecution and secured the
conviction of Kethman with Attorney
N. l. Johnson of Moorhead.
That man who lives at Houston
has confessed to the murder and stat
ed that he has Dr. Egge's watch is the
information the attorney generals Of
icers are working on. "64
Nothing is known at the attorney
generals office of his connection with
the case. The Egge murder was
sensational crime. The trial was
held at Moorhead and attracted wide
spread attention. Kethman was con-
victed on circumstantial evidence.
Former officials of Clay county last
night gave no credence to the story of
a confession.
frame Up' Says Witherow
j. M. Witherow, of Moorhead, city
attorney of Moorhead at the time of
the murder and who went to the home
of Frank II. Kethman, 736 Ninth street
north, Fargo, with Ac1ng Captain of
Police Mullin and Officer Mclean of
Fargo and placed him under arrest,
said last night that he thought it was
a frame up"
Never Found the Watch
1T is true" said Attorney Witherow,
I'VE never found the watch which was
torn from his pockets and it may be
that some person has been given the
watch and now has good dream
story to tell. The circumstantial evil
dence was such as 10 leave no doubt
of Kethman's guilt. Wet blood was
found on his clothing when we entered
his home and he refused to talk"

North Dakota Classed
in the Zone Of Plent,

The st. Paul Sunday Pioneer Press
consisted of about 100 pages and was
one of the greatest booster editions of
the Northwest ever issued. North Da-
kota is one Of the states that 90 to
make up the zone of plenty, and
among the things said of this section,
is the following:
Today North Dakota is entering on
new era of settlement and farm de-
velopment; North Dakota during 1915
has made long strides along these lines.
Today the trend in North Dakota is
toward smaller farms and more of
them--toward diversified farming-and
toward more farmers. The great small
grain state of North Dakota is on it's
way to become still greater state OF
all Of the grains and of corn and of
potatoes and of hogs and dairy cows.
And to join in this new era Of develop
ment, North Dakota, on it's low-priced
lands, has room for three new farmers
for every one she has now.
A continuous stream of Eastern
farmers is coming into the state; men
who are accustomed to the practice
Of mixed farming, who are bringing
these methods of farming and econ
omy with them, and who are applying
them to the 160.acre farms of North
Dakota with the result that increased
profits from diversified crops and pro-
ducts are now being realized. These
methods are being adopted by many
Of the older settlers of the state. To-
day these increased profits from small
er farms can be at once realized all Of
the way from the Red River valley to
the west end of the state.
Alfalfa and corn are successfully
grown throughout the state. During
the season of 1914 corn matured as far
north as the Canadian boundary, yield
ing over so bushels of shelled corn
per acre. Thousands of acres of alfal-
ia have been seeded, and where tho
farmer has prepared and seeded his al.
falfa field according to proper meth
DDS he has been uniformly successful.
The farmers are cutting their alfalfa
fields three and four time each season
with average total yields per acre of
between three and four tons. In sev.
eral instances much larger yields were
recorded.
