Pacific Coast Mills Are Affected; Many Orders Are Turned Down

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 14.-Farm. CTS throughout the Northwest are holding their wheat in hope that the government will reopen the price question, and in consequence the country faces flour famine.

BOITINEAU TO
HAVENEW DEPOT
Surveyors Here This Week to Stake
Out Ground For New
Structure.

There is every indication that Bot
tineau is to have new Great North
ern station during the summer. A
crew Of surveyors were here the first
of the week stalking out ground for
the proposed building.
The site staked out is Immediately
south Of the present depot and in
dicates a building 30x134 feet in size.
The surveyors were in possession of
no facts in regard to the material or
other specifications of the building
than the size. They stated, however,
that the plans contemplated a struc-
ture with all modern conveniences.
The commercial club committee hav-
ing the matter in charge is in COM
munication with the railroad officials
and hope to have more definite infor-
nation in a few days.
There is strong sentiment in town
for an exclusive passenger station to
be located on the triangle Of ground
between the Home Auto Co. building
and the railroad tracks. The present
depot could then be utilized as a
freight depot. Whether or not the
railroad company would entertain
such a plan will be ascertained in a
short time.
At all events, there is every prob
ability that Bottineau is to have a
new depot that will be credit to the
city, as we'll as the railroad company.

ALCOHOL AND RIFLE
CELEBRATION, HOSPITAL

Ole Mastvelton, who resides in the
Turtle Mountains about seven miles
north of Bottineau, was brought to
town this morning and is in critical
condition at St. Andrews hospital
with a bullet wound through his
breast.
Just how the affair happened is
still somewhat of a mystery.
1t seems that the story opened with
the arrival of shipment of alcohol
a few days ago, which was brought up
into the hills and furnished the in
spiration for a celebration for Mast
velton and two friends. The carous-
al, it appears, continued until some
time last night. When Mastvelton
woke up this morning, he found him
self in bed with one of his comrades
and bullet from 22-rife lodged in
his breast, having passed dangerously
near the heart.
A doctor was summoned from town,
who upon the examination Of the
wound, had the patient Immediately
removed to the hospital here. He is
resting quite easily at this time and,
unless blood poison sets in, has a
chance to recover.
The strange part of the affair is
that one Of the participants to the
celebration seems able to explain how
or when the shooting occurred.

GREAT PICTURE FILM
COMING TO BOTTINEAU

Submarine warfare, which, with all
it's terrors has been brought to the
very gateway of America by the un-
der-water fighting crafts is vividly
pictured by Thos. H. Ince's million
dollar cinema spectacle which comes
to the Grand Theatre, April 4.
When Mr.. Ince produced the won
derful spectacle showing submarine
in action and the sinking of a great
ocean liner loaded with women and
children, little did he dream that the
European powers would carry this
sensational method Of sea fighting al
most to the shores of this country.
Newspapers recently have been
filled with the details Of sinking ships
by submarines along the Atlantic
coast. In "Civilization" this terrific
warfare is pictured in detail with
hair-raising realism. The European
countries, by bringing their conflict
this side of the ocean have turned
press agents for this big production
which everyone will surely wish to
see.

BOARD TO FIRE
PRES. E. F. LADD
Former President Worst Claims to
Have Positive Proof That Such
Are Plans of Regents.

John H. Worst, former president of
the North Dakota Agricultural COL
lege, makes the startling charge in
the New Rockford State Center, of
which newspaper he is the editor, that
he has positive proof to the effect that
the State Board of Regents is plan
ming to oust Pres. E. F. Ladd of the
Agricultural College.
According to Mr.. Worst, the board
has been making quiet inquiries
among the institutions of the east for
a man to take the position of Pres.
Ladd as head of the institution.
He charges that the board is dissat-
isfed with Mr.. Ladd's activity in en-
deavoring to secure better marketing
conditions to the North Dakota farm
er and that his activity is actuating
them in the effort to oust him from his
position.
