$4,000 OTHER BUILDERS WILL
AGAIN BE ENGAGED AT REG
LAR TRADES.

PARK RIVER MAN KILLS .FfIjfi||II
GIRL AND HIMSELF F.

Two blows upon the head with a
blunt instrument of some kind, one
of which fractured the girls head,
followed by revolver shot which took
effect in the left temple, were used to
kill the girl.
One bullet which he fired into his
own temple, killed Moi.
Tragedy in Bedroom.
Both bodies were lying across the
bed in Moi's room. Both were fully
clothed, and evidently, with other
members of the household absent, Moi
had forced the girl into his room
where the terrible tragedy was en-
acted sometime between the hours of
2 and 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon.
Discovery Of the double crime was
made about o'clock by a farm hand
John Snow, who came home after
spending the day in the city, to find
the house locked. He succeeded in
making his way in and found the two
dead bodies.
Jealousy to Blame.
That he believed farm hands on the
Aitken farm, of which he was fore
man, and where the girl was employ
ed as a servant maid, had interfered
with his suit for the girls favors, is
shown by Moi's several letters. One
of these was addressed to David Ait
ken, Moi's employer. To Aitleen, Moi
wrote the following:
"Forgive the trouble am causing,
but my honor is at stake. 1 forgive
the boys for the trouble they have
caused me this summer. May God
forgive them as hope he will forgive
me-"
tNot Going Alone"
To his sister, Mrs. D. L. Sjugstad,
of Mcintosh, Minn., Moi wrote:
II am going to another world, but
I am not going alone. The person
who caused this is going with me, be-
cause it is her choice. May God be
lenient with her"
The statement which Moi forced the
girl to sign follows:
II, the undersigned, do not blame
T. G. Moi for the treatment he gave
me, for was to blame, in part, my
self"
This letter was written by Moi, the
girl writing her own name with
trembling hand, indicating that Moi
probably was then threatening her
with death.
Made Attempt Saturday.
| Yesterdays tragedy was the cul-
mination of an attempt made the day
previous by Moi to kill the girl. Sat-
urday afternoon, while Moi and the
girl were in the house alone, Moi at
tackled her, choking her and holding
a gun at her head, when the girls
screams called Moi's attention to the
approach of neighbor, Mrs. Olaf
Larson. Miss Gutterud told Mrs Lar
son of the affair, and the latter ad-
vised the girl to leave the place, but
she expressed herself as being with
out fear, not thinking that Moi would
carry out his threat.
An inquest was commenced this af-

LEONARD JOHNSON RECEIVES
FATAL INJURIES WHILE RE-
PAIRING MACHINE.

Leonard Johnson, son of Jacob
johnson Of Enterprise twp, while en-
gagged in repairing threshing rig on
his fathers farm last Friday after
noon, happened with an accident which
cost him his life. He was standing
on top of the boiler of the engine
making some repairs when one of his
feet became caught in the gearing
and before the machine could be stop
ped his entire leg was drawn into the
gears and horribly mangled by the
cogs. DR.. Ferguson of Brocket was
Immediately called, who advised that
he be taken to hospital. The doc
tor prepared the injured man for the
journey and he was rushed to hos
pital at Grand Forks, where he died
at 2 o'clock Tuesday morning.
The young man was in the prime OF
life, bel ing 81 years, 10 months and
days ofbge. He had always lead a
clean life and was popular with the
young people of the community. His
misfortune came as a severe blow to
his many friends, and the grief caused
his relatives is understandable.
The funeral was held Wednesday af
ternoon from the residence and the
Finnish Lutheran church. There was
a large attendance at the funeral
which showed the high esteem in
which the young man was held by the
people of the community. Interment
was made in the Finish cemetery

Washington, July 14.-The situa-
tien between Germany and the United
States has taken on such serious
and critical character that the policy

quarters.
Secretary Lansing, after taking

lit sntt Wilson. The original plan,
st Was: explained, was for the presi-
dent and Lansing to confer and then
have the secretary draft a note to be
submitted to the cabinet on the Npresi-
dents return to Washington.
Now the belief is that the president
and Lansing working Independently,
will prepare memoranda and confer
after their ideas have matured.
Count Won Bernstorff, the German
ambassador, has asked Lansing if he
wishes to see him, and the secretary
is understood to have replied that he
does after he has carefully examined
the situation.
The ambassador is seeking informa-
ton on the attitude of the American
government towards the German re-
ply. After Lansing has consulted
with President Wilson it is not un-
likely that some intimation will be
given to the German ambassador OF
the seriousness with which the United
States government regards the crisis.
While Lansing has not given the
slightest inkling Of his views, intima-

MOTOR DEVELOPMENT
IN TWELVE YEARS.
From Practical Insignificance 1t
Has Developed to Greatest
Efficiency
BY Is. p. DRYSDALE.
Cadillac Motor Car Company

From practical insignificance twelve
years ago to one of the worlds greatest
Industries to-day is briefly the story of
the motor car. The rapidity of it's
growth has immeasurably surpassed
that of any other industry in the
worlds history. Twelve years ago the
automobile was the object of sneers
and derision. To-day it ranks as one
of the fastest methods of transpor-
tation or travel. Twelve years ago the
automobile had not acquired the title
which was assigned it a few years
later. The rich mans plaything." To-
day 1t is the worlds necessity.
Twelve years ago the owner of an
automobile was the butt of the Jester.
To-day he is the envy of his friends
and neighbors. Twelve years ago the
motorists VITO could take a drive of a
few miles without getting stuck was
the exception. To-day the tour of n
thousand miles or more with nothing
to do but start, steer and stop is the
recreation of thousands. Twelve years
ago the motor vehicle as a CONNER
cial utility was unknown. To-day there
are thousands of them. Twelve years
hence will see its use practically uni
versal.
Twelve years ago the investment in
the production of motor cars amount
ed to few hundred thousand dollars.
Today the investments run into the
hundreds of millions. Twelve years
ago there were only a few thousand
persons employed in the industry. To-
day 1t gives employment to hundreds
of thousands and furnishes a liveli-
hood for more than a million.
The real motor car, the one that is
worthy of the name must be some
thing more than a mere assembly of
components obtained indiscriminately
"a motor here, a transmission there,
an axle some place else, and a score or
more of other parts in as many differ
ent places. In the constant, the eff
cient, the dependable and the economt-
cal car every individual piece down to
the last nut and screw must be made
to work in harmony with every other
part. Such a car can be the result only
OF experience, equipment, skill,
know how" and organization. These
essentials are not obtainable in a day,
month or a year.
The upbuildinE of an adequate
equipment and efficient organization,
the kind that it takes to manufacture
motor cars that will be what they
ought to be is a slow and tedious pro-
cess. 1t requires work-hard work
and lots of it. 1t requires skill, and it
requires time. The past twelve years
have recorded remarkable develop
ment The next twelve, yes, the next
two or three, will record many more.
The past has seen developments in the
motor car itself. The near future will
record changes in the business itself
IT will see an elimination of the un-
worthy and the unfit, for "only the
good endures.'
