How Caiarrh is Contracted.

Mothers are sometimes so thought
less AZ to neglect the colds which
their children contract. The intiam-
nation OF the mucus membrane. at
first acute, becomes chronic, and
the child has chronic catarh. a d.
sease that is seldom cured and that
may prove q lies burden. Many
persons who have this loathsome
disease will remember having had
frequent cold9 at the time il was
contracted. A little forethought, a
bottle Of Chamberlain y Cough Rem
edy iudiciously used, and all this
trouble might have been avoided.

MUELLER GUILTY
e. IS JURY'S VERDICT

derson, c. A. Pomeroy, L. E. Ahlers
Philip Schmidt, K. E. E. Olson, Her
man Hallwacks, and Martin Craven
A number of court cases are still
on the calendar. The Mueller MUIR
der case has consumed so much time
however, and has so disarranged the
calendar, that it has been necessary
to postpone the further sittings OF
the court until August Z.
On Monday, the 31st, Judge Coffey
began hearings at Valley City in an
election contest involving the ques-
tion of the nomination of candidates
for states attorney for Barnes
County. It is probable that this will
consume several days. 1t was neces-
sary to interrupt the calendar OF
the district court because the ar
rangements had already been made
for the hearing and it is imperative
that such an election contest be set
tied within the time limit prescrib-
ed by the state law.

SHIP BUILDING
ACTIVITY FOR
GREAT LAKES

Ashtabula, o., Aug. 1.-The Great
Lakes Engineering Works, con-
cern which operates a great ship
building plant here and another at
Detroit, has booked orders for 20
vessels for 1915 and 1917 delivery
and it is stated that the corporation
cannot take another order which
calls for completed boat to be de-
livered before the opening of 1918.
1t is further announced that the
concern will turn out four 10000
ton steamers for 1917 in addition to
some smaller craft.
1t has been learned that two
steamers of Welland canal size will
be turned out at the Superior, Wis,
yards, for James Davidson, of Bay
City, MICH. They will be used in the
bulk freight trade on the Atlantic
coast. Another order for four
steamers of that size has been booked
for 1917 delivery by the American
Shipbuilding company. These boats
will be built for the salt water trade.
The vessels of Welland canal size
will be built at the Cleveland. De-
troit, South Chicago and Superior

HARVEST HELP AID.

The farmers of North Dakota
will be given additional federal aid
this year in securing harvest help
A special federal agent is now work
ing in cooperation with r. F.. Flint
of the state department of labor at
Bismarck. This agent is in close
touch with agents in other states to
the east and south, and as the har-
vest work is completed in those sec
tions, will assist in moving the labor
from those sections to places where
they are needed in this state
The effectiveness of this work
will depend much upon the accuracy
with which the department is in
formed as to the needs of each speci-
fic section. Commercial and Farm
ers' Clubs are asked to help in this
work. Careful attention to these
matters at once will save much loas
to communities by distributing the
labor where it is most needed.
Application blanks will be fur
nished upon request to the Depart
ment of Labor at Bismarck, and
when these are returned the depart
ment will place help as rapidly al
possible.

ARE NATIONAL
GUARDS ENTITLED
TO PENSIONS
Held That They Are by an Army
Official.

Washington, July 3O.-Mooted
questions about the status of state
troops called into the federal service
for the Mexican emergency are de-
cided in an exhaustive opinion given
Secretary Baker today by Brigadier
General Crowder, Judge advocate
general of the army. General Crow
der holds that the state soldiers are
not subject to duty outside of the
United States and until they are for
mally drafted by order of the presi-
dent; that they are under control of
the federal government and not of
their respective state governors, and
that they are entitled to the same
pension and privileges as regulars.
While congress by joint resolution
has conferred upon the president au-
thority to draft the militia and ma
tional guard, in his discretion, the
general points out that the president
has not exercised that authority. In
the meantime, he says, the status of
the state troops .''is that of militia
called into the service of the United
States for one Of the purposes speci-
fed in the constitution, that is, to
protect the United. States from inva-

INCOME TAX RETURN
PUBLICITY ADVOCATED
pie Will Know How Senators
Stand.

Washington, July 31.-"I am not
only in favor Of tpublicity of the in
come tax retur1 )" says Sen. Norris,
Nebraska, today. but am ready to
carry on an aggressive campaign to
open every one Of them to the in
spection of the public.
''The poor mans tax returns are
public records in every city and
country, and the rich mans tax re-
turns to the federal government
should be in exactly the same posi-
tion.
Il have read sthe income tax law,
and after giving due weight to ev-
cry argument advanced by Treas.
Sec. .McAdoo that only corporation
returns, can beade. public. 1 am
convinced the law empowers the
president to make all the records
public today, if he wishes.
IF the president will not exercise
this power, congress must act.
Before this session closes there
must be record vote. Every sena-
tor will let his constituents know
whether he stands for throwing a
cloak of secrecy over the returns OF
the tax dogers, behind which they
can continue to rob the United States
treasury of millions of dollars OF
taxes"
