Erlings Feed and
Sale Barn Sold

This Friday afternoon) as we
go to press we are informed that
a deal was closed whereby Erling
Njaa sold his large feed and sale
barn to Olaf Reno of this place
and Ole Ormo Of Glendive.
The new proprietors are to take
over the barn next Monday, with
Olaf Reno ia charge.
Mr.. Ormo has the past couple
years been running the Home
Hotel at Gletidive but this week
has sold out at that place and will
now move here together with his
family at once.
Mr.. Njaa's main reason for sell :
ing was because he has too many
other things to look after, besides
expecting to do some farming.
Mr.. Njaa built this barn, which is
the largest in town, last fall and
has. had a splendid patronage
which we hope the new owners
will enjoy also. They expect to
do auto livery in connection.

Sand Creek Farmer Murdered

Some two weeks ago we heard
rumor to the effect that a farmer
over on Sand creek, 80 miles
northwest of here, had been found
dead in his shack but no definite
details could be gotten regarding
if at the time. This is what the
Wolf Point Herald has to say re-
garding it. in part:
:.'The dead body of Phillip Haffa
was discovered in his shack on his
homestead by a neighbor on Sat-
urday last, March 13. There was
a bullet-hole through the window
and a bullet-hole through the
dead mans head. After passing
through the head the bullet went
intu the wall of the shack. Haffa's
homestead is located about three
miles north of Sand creek pass In
Richiand county, and about 20
miles from Wolf point. Deputy
Sheriff Papendick, of Fairview
soon was on the scene and made
careful examination of the pre-
misses. Haffa had apparently lain
down on his bunk after a meal
and had been shot while in this
position, and from certain indi-
cations on the corpse the clothing
worn by Haffa had been searched.
Phillip Haffa had not been seen
for about three months. About
that date he had mentioned to
,acquaintances that he intended
soon to return to Wiillstoh, Ills
for former home, on a visit. At
ter his disappearance it was thot
he had gone to that place and his
absence excited no comment.
There is every reason to believe
that the murder occurred at this
time in the month Of December.
The body was disfigured by hav-
ing been gilawed by rats or mice
and was frozen stiff. Haffa was
occasionally seen in Wolf Point
riding a motorcycle and his
motorcycle is missing. He was
about 40 years of age"

Tho Presidents Title.

In spite Of our traditions and our pre-
lenses Americans dearly love a title.
It's fair guess that a larger part of
the mail that goes to the White House
is addressed to His Excellency' or
His Eminence" or His Honor" AS
a matter of fact his title is The Presi-
dent of the United States. That is title
SO great that the fathers decided that to
add to it would be to detract from 1t.
The fathers were wise. Taking their
cue from the federal practice the con-
sttution makers nor the statute max
ers of New York ever gave the chief
executive of this commonwealth other
title than the governor of New York.
Every governor of the state has been
content with that Address him SO in
letter or In speech and you are right.
Decorate him with an ''excellency" OF
an honor" and you are wrong. The
governor Of Massachusetts, Is His Ex-
cellency by warrant of the constitution
of 1870, but he is the only excellency
we have In Amerlea.--Nsw York Sun.

Der, 1912, on an indictment charging
him with attempting to murder his
coffee. Mrs. Rochefort testified that
three such attempts had been made to
