FARMER HANGS
SELF IN BARN
AGED WILLIAMS COUNTY FARM
Err HANGS HIMSELF, USING
A PIECE OF WIRE

The body of Halvor J. Munkevold,
farmer who lived about one mile
east of Manger post office was discov-
cred Tuesday in an old sod barn on
the Lizzie Myron homestead about q
mile and half west Of his farm. The
body was discovered by the Greenland
children who were playing and CATCH
ing gophers and went into the old
barn in their gopher hunting. Coroner
Distad was notified and made trip to
the place Tuesday evening accompanied
by Undertaken Hamre. They found
that Munkevold had committed suicide
by hanging himself with piece Of
rusty wire. He had stood upon the
manger and fastened the wire to an
overhead beam and then stepped off
into eternity. The body was brought
to Williston by DR.. Distad and Mr..
Hamre and is being prepared for bur-
ial. The funeral will be held at the
home Saturday.
Mr.. Munkevold left home Saturday.
He has been respondent of late and
Saturday after some trouble in driving
cattle he left saying that they would
not need to look for him any longer
as he was not coming back. He had
been in the habit of going over to
some friends place on the Muddy once
in while when feeling badly and his
folks were not worried and did not
know where he was until found by the
children Tuesday. He had evidently
gone to the barn and hung himself
Saturday. He was a man about sixty
years of age.

GOOD ROADS DAY
GREAT SUCCESS
OVER TWO HUNDRED MEN AND
SIXTY OR EIGHTY TEAMS OUT
ON GOOD ROADS DAY

Last Thursday, Good Roads Day,
was great success from every point
of view. Work was concentrated on
the three roads leading north out Of
the city the work being done in con-
junction with the Farmers Clubs north
Of the city.
The farmers clubs had graded Sec
tions of the roads where they expected
to gravel prior to Good Roads Day 20
when the teams turned out on the
morning of the seventeenth the road
was already for graveling. Thirty
teams were furnished by Williston and
these with the teams outside Of town
made from sixty to eighty or q hum
dred working. Over two hundred men
were kept busy all day, teaming,
spreading gravel and digging rock.
The Commercial Club engaged thirty
men in addition to the volunteers and
furnished them with picks and shovsls.
The road by the experimental farm
is being graded by the boys on the
farm. The mile Of road east Of the
Red Bridge, four miles from town is
going to be improved by the farmers
club they using it in their competition
for the fifty dollar prize offered by
the Commercial Club.
Citizens who travelled over these
three roads since Good Roads Day
have commented upon the marked I'm.
provement in each one. A good lot
of gravel has been placed on part Of
the lane road just north of the city
and this will soon show the benefit Of
good heavy graveling. Rocks were
removed all along each road helping
greatly in the improvement

WOULD EXTEND
PEACE TREATIES
GREAT EDUCATIONAL CAM.
PAIGN URGED TO TEACH
BROTHERHOOD

Was h ington, June 1S.-Bryan's
third and concluding section of his
statement on The Causeless War, sug-
gests mediation as "the way out" Az
a preventative of war, Bryan proposes
the universal extension of his investi-
Mediation Bryan says, "is the
means, provided by International
agreement, through which the belli-
gerent nations can be brought into
conference. Time for investigation Of
all disputes is the means by which
future wars can be avoided and tha
cultivation of international friend
ship is the means by which the desire
for war can be rooted out"
Inelaborating his plan for the res
toration of peace, Bryan urges: That
the neutral nations in advocating to
crystalize sentiment in favor of peace
into coercive force, offer mediation
jointly and severally, that warning ma
tions join in treaty to provide for the
investigation by a permanent interna-
tional commission of every dispute
that may arise, no matter what its
character or nature, and that world
wide educational movement to culti-
vate spirit of brotherhood among the
nations be undertaken as the final
task of the advocates of peace.
"Great nations cannot be extermin-
ated," says Bryan. predictions made
at the beginning of the war have not
been fulfilled. The British did not
destroy the German feet in month,
Germany did not take Paris in two
months, and the Russian army did not
eat its Christmas dinner in Berlin.
But even if determination were pos
sible, it would be crime against civil
lization which no nation or group OF
nations could afford to commit ,"
Bryan continues:
"When can peace be restored?
AT any time now, if the partici-
pants are really weary Of this war and
ready for it's end. If any nation is not
ready. let it's ruler state in clear, dis
tinct and definite terms the conditions
upon which it is willing to agree to
peace; then if an agreement is not
reached, blame for the continuance Of
the war will be upon those who make
unusual demands"
In proposing mediation, Bryan
points out that The Hague convention
expressly declares an offer of media
ton shall not be considered an un-
friendly act.

HAD A FAIR TRIAL.

For the second time the verdict of
the court is that former Police Lieu
tenant Becker must pay the penalty
for the crime of which he has been
found guilty. 1t is the statement of
the court which has reviewed the
evidence in the case that he was given
every opportunity to establish his in
nocenee and that no reason can be
found for upsetting the verdict.
This does not close the last avenue
Of escape, because it is possible to
take his case before the highest court
in the land upon the question of his
legal rights and it is also possible to
make an appeal for Communication of
sentence or pardon to the governor
Of the state and it is not likely that
any stone will be left unturned, how
ever improbable it may seem that
anything will be done to interrupt
justice.
What will be the outcome of either
or both appeals is impossible to tell,
though from what has gone before,
there would appear to be little chance
whatever is done. From the position
of trust which he held as an upho1der
of the law and from the use which
he made of it to head a gang of gun
men and as the instigator of murder
for the purposes of graft, he stands
out as the emoving spirit and more
guilty than all the rest
The prospect of an appeal for Glenn
ency presents strange situation for
Governor Whitman was the district
attorney who established his reputa.-
ton in the running down and pros
ecution of Becker and the others. He
is thoroughly acquainted with all
phases of the case and there can be
little question as to where he stands
relative to interfering with the YER
dict though because of his connection
with the case it is not unlikely in all
fairness that he would consider him.
