ATTACK FARM MARKETS BUREAU
Assistant Attorney General Davis Or
ders Auditor to Refuse to Issue
Warrants

BOISE, June 10.-(Special.) Cap
tain E. G. Davis, assistant to the attor-
ney general, has attacked the farm
markets bureau by issuing an order
directed to the state auditor to re-
fuse to issue claims against the $10,-
600 appropriation carried by the act
creating the bureau. The assistant to
the attorney general contends that the
act is unconstitutional in that its title
does no refer to the appropriation
carried by the body of the act. Simul-
taneously State Auditor Huston an
nounced he would comply with the
new order. Director w. G. Scholtz
will bring mandamus proceedings
against the auditor on his refusal to
ssue warrants on the appropriation :
and the issue will probably go to the |
court for settlement. {

Experts Elated.

Fargo.-Returning from inspecting
the work of the gopher poison squad,
DR.. w. B. Bell of the North Dakota
experiment station is elated over its
success. For years he had been at
work on formula which he perfected
late last fall; this spring the station
and the federal department of agricul-
ture in Washington with county agents
of tthe better farming movement and
others co-operated to destroy the 60.
piers.
Experts have been in many counties
tnstructing the farmers in the best
methods Of preparation and distribu.
ton OF the poisoned oats and the sue
cess of the plan has been beyond the
expectations of the officials.
The cost runs from to 4 cents an
acre. The chief difficulty has been in
securing sufficient quantity of strych.
nine alkaloid. as the other kind was
ineffective in this formula.
An effort will be made to conduct q
statewide campaign next spring. 1t
Is estimated the work this year has
prevented hundreds of thousands of
dollars damage in the state.

ousy on the part of Swaney, who cut
his wife's throat with a razor and aft
erwards cut his own. Sending their
three children from the house, Swaney
went upstairs to his wifes bedroom,
nailed the door shut and attacked her
with razor. Several cuts on her
hands and body showed that she re-
sisted some time before he finally cut
her throat. She could have lived but
few moments. His violence to him
self was even greater. He stabbed
himself from ear to ear until the razor
struck the neck bone.
The children found the door fastened
and discovered blood running from un-
derneath it and called for help.
Swaney was jealous of his wife. and
for several weeks had been in an ex-

been considered serious. He had farm

years, and has four brothers living
near his farm. He was highly regard

Determined to Wed Indian.

Wagner.-Because an Indian boy did
not reciprocate her affection, and be.
cause her parents opposed her idea
of marrying an Indian. Miss Agnes
Chytka. the 18-year-old daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Anton Chytka, living on
a Charles Mix county farm. attempted
to commit suicide after making a des.
perate attempt to kill the Indian boy
with whom she was in love. She fol.
lowed the Indian boy into field where
he was working in proximity to the
Chytka farm. and. when he again re-
jected her attentions, she drew a re-
volver and fired at him three times.
Fortunately none OF the bullets took
effect. Then in desperation she rushed
to her. home, seized a bottle contain.
ing an ounce of carbolic acid and swal-
lowed the liquid. She suffered ter
ribly. but by hard work on the part Of
members of the family and a physician
who was summoned, her life was
saved. 1t is understood that she now
regrets her action and realizes that a
Sioux Indian boy would not make the
proper kind of a husband for her.

have murdered the six persons whose
skeletons were found under his home
between Is and 20 years after the COM

of murder while an inmate of the state

Dr. A. w. Guest, who was chief ply.

that Butler was confined, says that
Butler never let drop any hint of his
supposed career of crime.
Butler had remarkable ideas while
imprisoned. He used to have decisions
of grandeur and visions of exalted
character.
County officials are continuing the
investigation in the hopes of establish
ing the identity of the murder victims.
They have several clews which may
serve to unravel the mystery.

HEALTH BOARD USES MOVIES.
Adopts Unique Method Of Impressing
Importance Of Vital Statistics on
Professionalism Launched.

Devils Lake.-The movies" are to
be employed by the North Dakota
Board Of Health in an education cam
paign which is being launched, aimed
to secure greater respect for laws
dealing with the health department.
The Importance Of vital statistics is be-
ing impressed by DR.. C. j. McGurren,
of this city, secretary of the state
board of health, who since his tenure
in Office has found the attempt to
tabulate the births and deaths in the
state little more than a Joke.
The law requires that the sexton of
= church refuse to permit burial with
out certificate of death. That has
failed to work out satisfactorily and
in an effort to correct the abuse DIR.
McGurren is calling upon the clergy of
the state to act as sub-registrars in
their districts and see that reports of
all deaths are filed out before they
conduct funeral service.
The movies" are utilized in unique
way. The story of young mans ex-
perience is told. Left an orphan in
infancy, without his birth having been
registered, his experiences are noted
First difficulty was met in getting into
the public schools. At 81, he was un-
able to legally establish his age, for
there was no record. He could not
vote because his age was in doubt. In
endeavoring to secure marriage H.
cense the same difficulty was met.

here from prolonged chase after un
known persons who few days ago
stole IL head Of valuable horses from
the Christensen ranch in Meade coun-
ty. Eight of the missing horses were
recovered. Sheriff Root was accom-
panied by Sheriff Shut. of Meade

pursuit Of the officers extended into
Trip and Gregory counties and 1t was
in those counties That eight Of the IL
stolen horses were found. The thieves
had sold them to homesteaders in a
territory extending over about 100

them the horses the authorities are
confident they will soon locate the
thief. whom they believe to be for
mer resident of the northwestern sec
ton of Stanley county. The theft Of
the IL horses was the boldest crime
of the kind committed in western
South Dakota for some time, and indi-
Gates that horse "rustlers" again are

warrior Victim Of Mjstake.

Rapid City.-Because of the coinci-
dence in his taking the same train for
Rapid City upon which an Indian wom-
an named Mrs. Bareback Travelled.
Clement Whirlwind Soldier, Sioux
warrior belonging on the Rosebud res
ervation, was arrested as he stepped
from the train here on complaint
from the reservation that he was elop-
ing from the reservation with the In
dian woman. 1t developed that the
Indian woman was accompanied by her
little girl and was provided with a
ticket for Nashville, Neb.. while Whirl.
wind Soldier had ticket to Deadwood.
Thus their arrival in Rapid City on
the same train was coincidence. and
the authorities, after securing the facts
set forth, had no other recourse than
to release the Sioux warrior.

CREAM BRINGS WEALTH.
Midland Country in Haakon County 10
Becoming Great Dairy Center.

W'eiaHo Soun1Fy IN 7aakOn county -
Becoming Great Dairy Center.
Midland The town of Midland, To-
Gated on H.. p. r. & N. w. railroad
In Haakon county WAS at one time the
center OF the great stock range OF Stan
ley county; but the great rush of peo-
pie to this part OF the state during the
years 1900, 1901 UP to 1905, drove the
stockmen off the free range and this
section during the years 1906 up to
1909 became fertile farming country.
Then came the drouth of 1910-11-l2-13.
During these four years the people
placed mortgages on their homesteads
and left the country in vast number,
thus reducing the population from 49,
600 to about 5000.
For the past year this country has
greatly improved. The ranchers
learned an easier and more profitable
manner in which to make success of
this country. They have now gone in
to the dairy business, which is the
most successful enterprise adapted
since the closing Of the free range
here. In the month of June there
was shipped from this station 1902
cans of cream. averaging 50 per can.
or $11.718. From Philip in this same
| county there was shipped 1868 cans.
amounting in the sum of $11,347. There
are two other stations. Powell and
Nowlin, which are shipping much
cream. There was shipped to this sta.
ton during the months of March. April
and May, II cars of cows. This, with
several cars Of young stock for the
past two years means large number
of dairy cows here. The same is true
Of Powell. Nowlin and Philip, so much
so. that this country has again put on
the appearance of prosperity.
| At an auction sale at Pheba on June
Goth the Midland State bank checked
the sale. which amounted in the sum
of $4,000 or this sum $1,000 was cash.
with the balance at six months time
This is a good showing for this sea-
son of the year in this or any other
country. The prairies are covered with
grass. and there is more feed than
ever
