ATTENTION VOTERS
OF STARK COUNTY

In the last issue of Der Volksfreund
of Richardton is an appeal by John
Reuter-, county treasurer, to the
German speaking citizens of Stark
county for their votes. The English
translation of two paragraphs Of this
appeal reads as follows:
CT think you will all agree with me
that a large portion of the business
in the ~treasurer's office is transacted
in the German language, and it is
certainly much easier and pleasanter
for the larger portion of German
speaking citizens to transact their
business in their mother tongue.
"My opponent, who seeks this Of
flee, is not able to express himself in
the German mothertongue or to give
you information in this language, and
should he be elected, he will be COM
PEELED to get an assistant who prob
ably will be entirely inexperienced in
the conduct of the business"
I answer to the above, I wish to say
that I have lived in Stark county for
3 years. I was in the mercantile
business for many years at Taylor
and Richardson; I was county COM
missioner for six years, a member of
the state legislature for three terms,
and receiver of the U. S. land office
in Dickinson for nine years, and I
know that I am fully able and quail

Manning Settler: Mr.. and Mrs.
Mike Drury and Mr.. and Mrs. VIM.
T. Nickel of Dickinson autoed into
town the first Of the week to visit
with County Judge George Morton.
Both these first named gentlemen are
now passenger engineers and in the
old pioneer days Of %railroading in this
part Of the state they used to pull
many of the trains on which Judge
Morton was conductor. They dropped
into the office on him unexpectedly
and so great was the good judges
surprise that he mighty nigh spilled
some perfectly good court house ink.
The three men had worked together
in the halcyon days when the brakes
we're set with clubs and the engine
guided by the Pickering light Of a
kerosene lamp. Just the same, Mike
pulled George on a cattle train from
Dickinson to Mandan N trip in two
and a half hours. Both the visitors
are still on the old job and + two
of the most highly respected and
wealthy "hoggers" known to the line.
The Judge has snapped cars for the
mules, and the adventurous life CT
the road for the quiet of the farm,
and withal, lives up to his recently
acquired title of County Judge with a
conscientious attention to his official
duties and a splendid efficiency not
surpassed by any officer in the state.

PASSENGERS CELEBRATE
HALLOWEEN ABOARD TRAIN

Imps with high-cocked hats danced
gleefully Halloween night on North
ern Pacific trains for, to do a little
novel entertaining, the dining car de-
partment prepared an unexpected pro-
gram. Following the dinner hour
decks were cleared and the usual
trimmings for such a party wer in
stalled only in an exaggerated degree.
Tables were removed and a wash
tub placed in the center Of each din
1 ag, car' ms was hlie a, WIN water te
and diving for them furnished real
sport for many passengers. Other
features symbolic of the occasion
were also featured and the festivities
were finally ended with a dance sew
eral hours after midnight. Music
was provided by monographs.
This is believed the first time that
Halloween has been celebrated on
board trains.

shrieks and groans and means greet
ed them on all sides. After a jour-
ney through the most fearful imagin-
able places they we're led into the
brightly lighted reception room,
which was very appropriately and ar
tistically decorated.
Two spirits beckoned the guests to
the banquet in the dining room. This
room was illuminated only by the
candles on the table. At each place
was a glass candle stick and lighted
candle, a black cat favor and a unique
place card. At either end of the
table was a large candle stick with a
yellow shade and two long satin
streamers ran lengthwise down the
bowl of lovely pink roses.
eral cat fights among the favors, the
guests were again led to the recep:.
ton room and had their fortunes told
by some wise spook. The hostess then
taking m guest at a time, handed
to him or her a mirror and a candle
with the instructions to walk down
the cellar steps backward to see their
future wives or husbands. The girls
saw "the handsomest man" (who, alas
proved to be already married) and the
boys were all smitten by the sweet
face which looked into the mirror.
Later on, several successful at
tacks were made on apples attached
to strings. The most ghostly of ghost
stories was told, each guest taking
part.
About half past ten the delightful
party was ended by folk dances and
a jolly Virginia Reel.
The hostess was assisted by the
Misses Bradford and Harris, Mrs.
Ayers and also by the two spooks,
Doris Deffebach and Fadora Drury.

The statistics this month show a
decided increase in daily circulation
over last month, as also a larger pa
tronage of the reading room. The
largest circulation attained in one
day being 107 books. Also the de-
mand for reference material has been
larger.
The annual meeting of the State
Library Association was held last
week and was a decided success, al
though not so many were present as
last year, owing to the fact that Will
liston is situated so far west from
most libraries. A splendid talk was
given by Miss Jeanette Drake Of
Sioux City, Iowa, on Library Adver-
Using. Various phases of library
work and methods were taken up at
round table discussions. The next an
nual meeting Of the association is to
be. held at Valley City.
The Library will now again be open
as usual, daily from 200 to $50 in
the afternoons, TO Otto 900 in the
evenings, also Saturday mornings
from 900 to 1900 and Sunday after
moons from 20 Otto $50. Everybody
in Dickinson and it's vicinity is cordi-
ally invited to draw out books, which
are free to all.

There are many greatquestions
confronting us as a people at this
time and whether we are repub-
licans or democrats we should
first of all consider the general
welfare of our state.
Bankers, merchants, farmers,
and in fact all the people that live
within our state must come to a
realization of the fact that by a
hearty cooperation in all mat
tiers we will hasten the upbuilding
of our state, both in the city and
country.
The banker must have the
merchants, doctors, lawyers, and
last, but not least, the real pro-
Queer, the farmer.
The farmer produces all of the
wealth and pays rs per cent of
all taxes and without the farmer
the grass would grow in the streets
in many of the cities and towns
of our state.
The merchant needs the farmer
the banker, the doctor and all of
the people of every walk in life.
The farmer likewise needs all of
the above; so let us not forget we
are all needed to complete the
large wheel which is composed of
spokes representing all of the diff
ferent businesses within our state.
We need representation---we
must have the very best. In
order to get this let us forget the
political end of politics. Let us,
as one man, fully consider all of
these large questions, and have
in our minds this one fact: No
matter what person or persons
have any friend or foe to work
for, or against, whether he be
republican or democrat, pay no
attention whatsoever to his pOlit-
ical party as far as state matters
90, but 90 into all parties and
select the best men obtainable toll
fill the offices, and try and putE
North Dakota on the map 3d. w$I
can point with pride to our hw$
instead of allowing mon6p0lie$|
outside of our state to make ouH|

TELLS WHAT COWS NEED

"The dairy COW must have green
forage or other succulence at all
times If she is to hold up in her
milk production" declares Prof. A.
B Nystrom of Pullman in State
College bulletin this week. 1T is
not uncommon for many cows 10
drop in their milk flow during hot,
dry weather. but this can be pre-
vented by providing something 10
take the place of pasture.
THE silo is the best means for
furnishing this succulence. Ex-
cellent silage can be made from
corn, wheat, oats, and barley, or
o.tver, peas and vetch, or, in fact
any combination of these. By put
ting these crops in the sllo at
stages ranging from the milk stage
III the case of small cereals TO the
dented stage in the case of corn.
tire largest amount of nutrients can
be saved and the crop can be har-
vested with the least amount of Ia
bcr. In olher words, the silo saves
10th feed and labor.
When no silo H. available these
rops should be cut green and fed
. cows in racks or in the stable
=. ..angers. Such practice is called
soiling. This method is not as eco
aomical as the silo method but
rather than have no succulence soil
ins should by all means be prac-
tioed.
1T should be remembered that
the COW producing large amount
Of milk mrst have succulence, hay,
and grain, and the most important
OF these is succulence."
