New York. May 19.-The fate Of

screened by a strict censorship. No

PROBLEM
PUZZLES
Chief of Police Troyer Is
Hopeful of Creating
Better Conditions.
new PARKING DISTRICTS
Using Middle cf Two Streets
to Do Away With Curb
Edge System.
new PARKING DISTRICTS

In an earnest endeavor to solve Far
go's rapidly increasing traffic problem,
the Fargo police department has es-
tablished new mo parking" zones, new
safety zones" and new parking
zones" during the past two or three
days.
Chief John Troyer, discussing the
plan, said this morning that the hope
for bringing about better conditions
with respect TO the traffic lies wholly
in the measure Of support that the
police department receives from the
automobile owners, and from the pub
lie in general.
The new parking zone, the first OF
it's kind in the city, lies between
Broadway and Roberts street, on First
avenue, the center Of the street be-
ing given over to parked cars.
In this section, a parking zone has
been chalked out, and auto drivers
are permitted to place their machines
here.
BY the adoption of this plan. the
cars are placed in the center of the
street, away from the curbs.
Heretofore, with the cars parked along
the curb, it has been practically im-
possible m drive up to curb to per-
NIT occupants of cars to get out
while the business of stores has been
seriously interfered with as we'll.
The First avenue parking zone is
only one OF several similar zones that
will be, established. Another Of these
will be located on Broadway, between
N. P. avenue and the n. p. tracks
this section extending from point
near the end Of the street railway
double tracking, to the railroad cross
ing.
On the opposite side of the n. P.
railroad, between the railway and
Front street, another parking zone
Will be laid out.
Later, Chief Troyer hopes to succeed
in establishing other parking zones
that will result in the elimination Of
the present curb edge parking in the
downtown district.
At the present time, there are ten or
fifteen blocks in the downtown district
where automobiles are ordinarily
parked so closely as to seriously inter-
fere with and impede traffic. All traffic
Is forced to the center Of the street,
and with the rapidly moving vehicles,
the danger Of accidents is greatly
increased by reason Of the process of
cutting down street width by the car
parking system heretofore in vogue.
The more kindly attitude of the pub
lie toward automobile owners, and
automobile traffic, coupled with the
fact that pedestrians have become ac-
customed to watching out for the auto
traffic, is a big influence in reducing
the danger of the auto traffic situa-
tion-and with the present efforts that
are being made by Chief of Police
Troyer, and the department, the pros
poets are that the auto situation will
be handled more satisfactorily this
year than previously, despite the great
increase in the number of cars.

ciability run of July 20, followed J. w.
Murphy and myself into Jamestown at
8 o'clock Wednesday night after leav-
ing Fargo at 2 o'clock. Just behind
Mr.. Hinkley and Route Marker C. S.
Harrington came the Chalmers bag
gage car with w. Fl. Brooks and Homer
c. George, the latter a newspaper man
from Detroit
AS we rounded the square and pulled
in front Of the Gladstone hotel we were
greeted with rounds of applause from
a large assemblage of Jamestown citi-
zens and the Chalmers crew said:
This is the life. We are not too
late for one reception at any rate"
1t was real western reception CIV
en- the crew. Members Of the Com
mereial club, leading private citizens
and officials Of the city government
lent their presence and activities to
making the event worth while. And
the trail-blazers enjoyed 1t immensely.
Yesterday morning they were up early,
but seemed loath to leave a city where
so much good spirit prevailed. They
were equally loath to leave Fargo fol-
lowing the lunch which the CONNER
cial club rendered them. .
The Chalmers cars left at 2 o'clock
promptly with Mr.. Murphy and myself
acting as pace makers and pilots. The
roads were found to be in very good
condition, considering the rains. Where
they had been dragged they were fast
and as good as could be desired. In
other places there were few ruts
but these should be worked out in one
more day. At no place on the journey
was the going so bad it could not be
negotiated with ease. Ten miles out,
chains were taken from all wheels of
the cars and the trim COMPLETED with
out this equipment. Considerable dust
was created the last 20 miles, and the
cars behind us had their passengers
covered by alkali.
Much enthusiasm is being shown
here over the tour and Jamestown will
do herself proud the day of the big
event. Lunch will be served here and
committees are now arranging enter
tainment for the tourists.

WITNESS
IN PROBE

London, May 19,-Augustin Birrell.
who resigned as chief secretary for
Ireland after the Smn Fein revolt, ap-
peared today as a witness before the
royal commission conducting an in
quiry of the rebellion. Birrell stated
he had read statements made by Sir
Matthew Nathan yesterday regarding
advance information In the hands OF
the government relating to the rebel
Lion and said that he did not care to
make any notifications to this testi-
mony.
IF home rule had not been placed
on the statute books" said Mr.. BirreIl,
there would have been great ex-
.plosion Of rage and disappointment
both in Ireland and the United States,
which, when war came, would have
assumed alarming proportions The
events in Ulster and the gun-running
at Larne by Obstetrics in 1914 had
great effect on disloyalists elsewhere"

WATTLES BACK
FROM OKLAHOMA

This morning Deputy U. S. Marshal
c. r. Wattles returned to the city from
Oklahoma City where he went in
charge Of Matt Telin, alias, Matt
Thompson, who is wanted in that fed
eral district on charge of the en-
bezzlement of government funds. Mr..
Wattles was accompanied on the trip
by A. c. Jones Of Darlington, who re-
turned as far as Minneapolis, where
he stopped for a few days.
Teltn, who was arrested at Sentinel
Butte on Information from the federal
authorities of Oklahoma, was charged
with embezzling about $700 Of post
office funds while he was assistant
postmaster of Award, Okla. 1t is re-
ported that Telin broke down and con-
fessed to the crime, stating that he
had gone to Award where he married
the postmistress, who Immediately ap-
pointed him as deputy. He served in
the capacity for a time, and is then
charged with skipping out with gov
ernment funds. That was three years
ago.
1t is reported that Telin, who was
then going under the name Of Thomp-
son, went to Mexico where he remained
for a time and then came to North
Dakota where he was engaged in the
land business in Golden Valley county
and other parts Of the slope country.
Mr.. Wattles states that the southern
country looks good although he is not
much enthused with Oklahoma. He
says that the farms there are nearly
all farmed by negroes and that land is
valued at about SO and SIS per acre
He says that only negroes can make
good at farming, although there are a
number Of large ranches and that the
cattle business is good.
Oil, says Mr.. Wattles, is the only
talk in Oklahoma, and oil is being
sold at higher prices than ever in the
history of the fields. He says that the
crude product is bringing $1.15 per
barrel now and that all the fields are
being worked to capacity.

II expect to visit Fargo at some

Mr.. Burdick made his statement
to The Forum over the long dis
tance telephone from Devils Lake,
where he spent most of this day.
Mr.. Burdick, explaining such
statements as he had made to
friends at Jamestown, asserted
that he had simply explained that
during the balance OF the cam
paign he would fill only a series Of
speaking dates that had already
been partially arranged.
That Burdick's campaign has
recently gained new recruits in
many sections OF the state, is the
general consensus of opinion
among politicians in this section.
They at no time took credence in
the report that Mr.. Burdick would
retire from the race--for they felt

u. L. Burdick of wiIliston, has

Mr.. Burdick, discussing the re-

had stated, while there, that he
was discouraged at his chances for

Pathfinders Received
in Great Style by
Folks of Bismarck

Bismarck, N. D., May 19.-The Chal-
mers trail blazers of the Yellowstone
sociability tour arrived here last night
at o'clock and decided to accept the
entertainment invitations extended by
the commercial club, the automobile
club and other organizations. These
civic bodies outdid themselves in show
ing the Chalmers boys grand time,
and they left this morning, feeling joy
full once again.
The cars were piloted from James,
town by w. w. Smith and r. e. Rick
ford, and. were kept going as fast as
the roads would permit. The party left
Jamestown at 8: 80 o'clock and hummed
along for miles without mishap. Then
began a series of frequent detours from
the regular trail, which continued until
the crews arrived here at frequent in
tervals. Pools Of water were spread
over the roads in many places and bog
holes of unpassable depths 1urked in
all wet ground. The baggage car was
stuck one time in such a hole but the
larger car kept going at all stages.
The rain of the past few days has
played havoc with the regular roads
from Jamestown here. In many in
stances detours had to be made across
prairie lands, freshly plowed ground,
and grazing lots. A number of times
barbed wire fences had to be removed
so the cars could make such detours.
In many instances the lakes of water
were several feet deep over the road.
The bogs were very deep in every such
case and on the ground surrounding
for quite some distance.
The likelihood is all the roads will be
in fine shape by July. Much work has
been done recently and III many places
miles OF fine new road have been built.
The result will be the most pleasant
travelling for the tourists when they
