BLUNDER 0F POLICE
 COST VICTIM $5O,O00
Toronto Engineer Is ExOnerafed After Nine Months Fight to Clear Him.
 self of False Charge.

New York, Oct. 10.--A case of mis- taken identity that cost it's victim $50, GOO and shattered his health in a nine months fight to set himself right was brought to light yesterday when, at the request of the district attorney, an indictment charging Alexander P. McCauley, wealthy mining engi- neer of Toronto, Ontario, was order- ed dismissed by the court.
 It was brought out that MacCauley had been enormously arrested in St. Louis on December 30, 1916, in the belief that he was "Cbristmas" Keough, known to the police as an al legged forger of travellers checks. It was Keougns practice, according to the police, to pass bogus checks on jewellers, and it was the positive man ner in which the shop-keepers identi- fled MacCauley as the man who had victimized them that way that led to his protracted fight to clear himself.
 keough is still at arge, and it was his resumption of operations whiic iNacCauley lay here ill that brought about the investigation that led to the dismissal of the indictment.
 The district attorney expressed re gret at the injury done MT. MacCau- ley, and the court also dep1ored the injustice done the engineer.

The case of Tom and Rena Mooney in San Francisco is not local, but in- terpational.
 American justice and democracy has been called into question in Rus sia on account of it.
 In our own country countless labor disturbances have resulted partly from this case.
 The charges of "frame-up' have had fal~reaching effects
 It therefore is wise move that President Wilson has delegated Attor, ncy General Gregory to investigate the persons convicted as result oi the preparedness ss day murders in San Francisco in 1915.
 The Mooney case is similar to the notorious Beiless case in Russia which in 1913 caused such tremendous protest in this country The scales are turned and the Russians arc pro testing.

WATCHING THE SUBMARINE.

It is a noteworthy fact that the al- lied governments are well able to keep track of the German submarine deyelopmcnts. That indicates that the system must be efficacious. Tho kaisei's sea snakes are unable to put anything over on us. We know of it in short order.
 The u-boats are evidently hard pressed to justify their campaign Of ruthlessnoss. judging by the efforts made to conceal them and otherwise add to their effectiveness, all to no particular avail.
 April 1 have been invented under pressure of the allied chase Formerly uboats, to remain in one spot, had 10 come to the surface. or anchor them solves to the bottom of the sea; but at present four small pumps are used which enable them to remain sta tionary while submerged. This not only consfrves fuel, but avoids their enemies from hearing the throb ot the propellors, Telescopic periscope5 also assist the submarines in con cealing their positions. A mixture of oxygen and strained gas is used in the engines, and the exhaust is washed free of smoke and broken into small bubbles, which do not leave wake. Finally, now listening devices enable it to hear and judge the size of ships at considerable distance.
 These clever devices prove that the ruthless campaign was becoming cost ly. otherwise, there would have been no incentive to invent them.

AN OLD APPEAL.

One of the bravest and most sal 1ant struggles for national liberty m all the history Of the world was the war for the independence of tho Netherlands against Phillip II of Spain. William of Orange William the Sitent-led his people through years of war to ultimate victory, tho he did not live to see that great re suit. In unselfish devotion to his people and his country, in courage and ability, he stands in the annals of his country as Washington stands in ours. Of him it was said by Motley, the historian: 'qWhen he died the lit tie children cried in the streets"

give financial support to the cause of liberty possesses timely interest when the United States government is asking the American people to give their financial support to their gov ernment in this war for liberty in the world.
 Tho prince of Orange in his address to the inhabitants of the Netherlands used t1ese words:
 Let not a sum of gold be so dear to YOU, that for it's sake you will sacfl- flee your lives, your wives, your chill dren. and all your descendants, to the latest generations; that you will bring sin and shame upon yourselves, and destruction upon us who have so heartily striVen to assist you. Think what scorn you will incur from foreign nations, what crime you will com init against the Lord God, what tloody yoke you will impose forever upon yourselves and your children, 'f you now seek for subterfuges; if yon now prevent us from taking the field with the troops which we have enlist ed. On the other hand, what inex- pressible benefits you will confer on your country, if you now help to res- cue the fatherland from the power of our enemies

INVENTORS MODEL OF
UNSUITABLE SHIP

A young inventor Of Lancaster, Pa,
has constructed a model Of what he
believes to be an unsuitable warship,
able to defy submarines and turn tor
pedoes from the strict path of duty.
His working model a picture of which
appears in the June Popular, Mechan-
les Magazine, shows a sort Of semi
submerged fort, the great bulk of the
ships hull being under water at all
times. The design of the hull shows
extraordinary depth, and the inven-
tors theory is that this construction,
with numerous air chambers, would
keep the ship af1oat even if struck. by
one or more torpedoes at or near the
water line. A belt Of air chambers,
resembling a hugh flange, surrounds
the hull near the normal water line,
and is designed to assists in maintain
ing buoyancy after the lower hull has
been pierced and partly water-filled by
torpedo attack or shell fire.

ROUTES TO Be DIS
CONT|NUED-bAD ROADS

In line with a general retrenchment
policy of the government, information
has come to the North Dakota Devel-
opment League Press Bureau, Grand
Forks that further economics will be
exacted in the p~ostofice department.
The first of these was announced some
time ago in a change from railway
postway postofice service to closed
pouch service on many Of the TRANS
of the state, effective June LIST. Now
the department announces that a large
number of mail routes over the coun-
try will be discontinued during the
summer months, when inspectors will
make a thorough examination of all
roads used for post service. Where
found unfit for travel. routes will be
discontinued.
North Dakota has many roads
which no doubt will come under the
ban of the government unless speedy
action is taken to put them in condi-
ton, as those highways which show
neglect or careless treatment will be
more likely to be condemned than
those which have been kept in first
class condition. A poor highway is an
economic extravaganza, and the gov
eminent will insist upon treating it
as such. The loss Of post service on
a road may easily be brought about by
the carlessness of a single road owe
seer or official properly in charge, and
community made to suffer.
