BIGGER SUPPLY OF EGGS
CAUSES DROP IN PRICES
Wholesale Market Active Today in
/, Anticipation of Tomorrow's
Retail Business.

The wholesale foodstuff market was
this morning a busy place and was
crowded with retail dealers. buying
supplies for tomorrow's expected brisk
business. The wholesale dealers report
q gradual increase in the supply of
eggs sufficient to cause the market to
drop cents dozen on nearby stock
and a cent on those from the south. To-

CAR

Another Group Of Escaped
Prisoners Caught by
Authorities

Bismarck. N. D.. March 17.-Pilwick-

tow of, Parole Officer w. D. Dopking,
Tilwickie serving for highway robbery,
was one of the three prisoners who
rode out of the prison gates. in a coal
car last summer. Upon reaching the
Bismarck yards. the fugitives piled
out of the coal car and beat it for the
brush on the Mandan side. where they
lay in hiding until night, catching a
freight train west. Tilwickie left the
train at Dickinson and thence worked
his way by slow degrees to the Paci-
fic coast. which he followed down to
Stockton. where he was arrested a
few weeks ago as an accomplice in a
highway robbery. There was no real
evidence against him. and when he
was identified by the Bertillon experts
as man wanted in North Dakota, the
prison authorities were notified. and
he was turned over to Dopking- Til
wickie is glad to get back. declaring
he felt homesick the moment he got
outside the prison.
Hyland was out on parole when he
jumped the state. He is another high
way robber. and 1t was while in the
alleged act of plying his trade that he
was taken in custody at Fresno, Cal.

HIGHWAY
BILL isn't
APPROVED
Some Features of Measure
Not Ratified by Federal
Representative

Bismarck, N. D., March 17.-North
Dakota's state highway law, creating
highway commission and diverting
to It's use two-thirds OF the revenues
produced from the fee charged for the
| registration OF motor vehicles, is not
! altogether satisfactory to Uncle Sam.
In the main it is a good bill. but its
weakness lies in the fact that actual
ly less than 10 per cent of the net
| revenues may be used in state high
way work. All the remainder, less ex-
penses OF the state highway commits
sion, must be used in the construction
Of roads in the county whence the
fund comes.
T. Warren Allen Of Washington, D.
G., general inspector Of the United
States office of public roads. and Dis
trfct Engineer e. o. Hathaway of st.
Paul, who are here to investigate
North Dakota's bodybuilding plans,
with a view to determining how this
states $4,000 slice of the Shackelford
federal post roads aid shall be in-
vested, have pointed out this flaw.
The danger of the present law lies
in the probability that the road funds
will be split so many ways that no
consistent. continued effort at trunk
line highway building will be possible.
II this condition should develop, the
amount OF federal aid which the state
could command would be problemat-a
ical, for 1t is understood that Uncle
Sam insists on systematic roadbuild-
ing. with some definite trunk-line con-
nection in view, and that he will not
consent to the diffusion of his road
moneys, piece-meal, all over the
state. The fact that only per cent
Of the cost OF the job is allowed for
inspection would preclude the federal
governments undertaking to aid a
vast number Of small projects. as the
allowance for inspection would be al

CASE IS
ON trial
Hettinger County Political
Mix-up Before Dickin-
son Court

Dickinson. n. D., March 1.-THE
proceedings to Gust the old board of
county commissioners to- Hettinger
county is being given a final hearing
in district court in this city this week
Governor Hanna. who last fall issued
an order BUSTING the members Of the
board from office after q hearing in
the case. Not being satisfied with
Hanna's decision in the matter. the
members of the board. consisting of
VIM. Colgrave. John A. Rieger and
Paul r. Schmidt appealed to the dis
trict court and the case was set for
hearing in Stark county. When the case
was brought up for trial Atty. V. H.
Crane OF Mott, who Is vigorously
prosecuting the case, filed an affidavit
of prejudice against Judge w. G.
Crawford, and Judge Hanley of Man
dan was called to sit in the case.
V. H. Crane is conducting the
terests are being looked after by
Atty. L. A. Simpson of this city, as
sisted by Atty. John F. Sullivan of
Mandan and States Atty. H. A.
Burgeson Of Dickinson.
The circumstances surrounding the
case are very peculiar, as since the
custer order was issued the terms Of
two members of the board of commits
sioners have expired and their sue
cessors are now filling their places.
Mr. Rieger had two years to serve
and an appointment has already been
made to fill his place. The action
was started last fall prior to the gen.
eral election and so much notoriety
was given it that it resulted in the
defeat of Colgrove and Schmidt, who
were candidates for reelection.
Rieger, being a holdover, was the only
official particularly affected by the
custer order. but Colgrove and
Schmidt are continuing the fight in
the hope of having Hanna's decision
set aside in order that their good
name may be cleared. The case is
the outcome of bitter factional
fight which has been going on in Het-
finger county for several, years past.

It Cannot BE.

George D. Prentice: 1t cannot be that
the earth is mans only abiding place.
1t cannot be that our life is mere
bubble cast up by eternity to float a
moment on it's waves and then sink
into nothingness. Else why is. 1t that
the glorious aspirations which leap like
angels from the temple of our hearts
are forever wandering I unsatisfied
Why is 1t that all the stars that hold
their festival around the midnight
throne are set above the grasp of our
limited faculties, forever hooking us
with the unapproachable glory? And.
finally, why is it that bright forms OF
human beauty presented, to- our view
are taken from us, leaving the thou
sand streams of our affections to flow
back in Alpine torrents upon our
hearts? There is a realm @whefe the
rainbow never fades; where the stars
will be spread out before us like
islands that slumber in the ocean, and
where the beautiful beings which now
pass before us like shadows will stay
in our presence forever.
