TRIP Big
SUCCESS
Tour Directed by Expert
ment Station Men Proves
Great Feature

The twenty-five livestock Demon
strations scheduled on the Linton,
Mott and Killdeer branches of the
Northern Pacific railroad were COM
pIetad Tuesday. The first meeting on
the Killdeer line was held at Killdeer,
one of the biggest cattle shipping
points in North Dakota. This fall 100
carloads of cattle were shipped from
this point in two weeks. Hazen, an
other town on this line has the dis
tinction of having shipped more hogs
last year than any other point on the
Northern Pacific in North Dakota.
One firm in this town has already sold
65 Fords this year and has so more
contracted for. The Patrons Buying
and Shipping association, which oper-
ates in Oliver and Mercer counties,
has 1000 members. 1t handles stock
and twine. The business Of this coop
erative association in 1915 amounted
to $150.000. James Harris is the man
ager. -.-.--..,...
The towns on the Killdeer branch
made great preparations for the meet
ings. At Halliday. Golden Valley and
Beulah the train was greeted with the
town band. At Halliday the business
men served dinner for the visiting
farmers
The attendance was good at all the
points and the interest exceptionally
good. These farmers are realizing the
Importance of livestock and are
anxious to learn all they can about
the business. At Killdeer the point
which is nearest the ranchtng coun-
try along the Little Missouri the
greatest interest was manifested in
beef cattle, at the other points the
interest seemed to be about equally
divided between beef and dairy cattle.
Would Use Institutes.
Director Cooper has suggested at
the different meetings that he thought
that it would be good plan to fol-
, low up these meetings with a farm
ers' institute. He promised to try and
secure such institute meetings for the
places that made request for them.
The two hours spent in these demon
stration meetings was too short for
going into as much detail as would
lbe desired. At a farmers institute
/ meeting there would be time for such
discussions.

Chicago, Oct. 1S.-Mayor Thompson
testified yesterday that he was guided
largely by the recommendations of
Police Chief Healey in repeating and
restoring saloon licenses. Restora-
tions, he said, usually were backed
up by the pleas Of reputable citizens,
influential business men and even
ministers"
This testimony formed the basis for
lot of sarcasm on the part of Henry
Berger an assistant states attorney.
Mr. Berger produced a lot of records
from the offices of the mayor and
chief Of police bearing on restorations.
Many of the applications bore the
endorsements of Alderman Depriest
and Alderman Lawley.
Reading several of these Mr.. Berger
would remark. "The reputable citi-
zens business men and even minis
ters in this case were-Alderman De-
priest" "The reputable and influential
citizens in this case were--Alderman
7 2Lawley."
He read a number on which the only
Recommendations came from politi-
clans. mostly Depriest. Others were

Norway Maintains Right to
Bar Submarines From
It's Waters

, London, Oct. 1s. - Reuters Chris
tiania correspondent says Norway has
informed the entente allies that it is
privileged to prohibit the passage
through or sojourn in Norwegian
waters by belligerent submarines. The
Norwegian note was in response to a
memorandum of the entente powers to
neutrals suggesting that belligerent
submarines should be excluded from
neutral waters. h.
The Norwegian government declares
it considers it has the right to pro-
hibit submarines designed for war
purposes and belonging to belliger-
ents, from passing through Norwegian
territorial waters, saying it made use
of this right in issuing the royal de-
cree of Oct. IA, under which belliger-
ent submarines are forbidden to
traverse the waters except as an
emergency.

Geneva, via Paris, Oct. 1S.-The
Swiss government in consequence of
the economic arrangement with Ger
many has prohibited Swiss factories
to export ammunition to the entente
allies if they are using German coal
or steel. This order will render idle
over $4,000 men, among whom there
is much discomfort.
The proprietors of the factories met
yesterday and protested against the
order, arguing that Switzerland re-
ceives Belgian and not German coal,
and that the entente allies supply raw
