undertake her share Of the fighting.

Fall Into DiSfavor

Bismarck, N. D., April 10
"Slackers" in the production of food
will be regarded with the same dis
dain that Chicago and other east
ern cities have heaped upon "slack-
ers" who have sought to escape
military duty by the marriage route.
That's the decision of the Bis
marck Commercial club and other
local organizations which have COM
bined to press into service every
available city lot for production
purposes.
IA very ordinary back lot will
produce all the way from $40 to
500 in food products, and with the
nation at war. that means just SO
much relief for the world food sup
ply" say the club campaigners, in
their appeal to Bismarck folks to
'plant gardens" Il
Vacant lots all about the city: are
being listed for apportionment to
those who have no available ground.

&. n. Brakeman
Held For Bigamy

Minot, N. D., April 19.-Theo-
dore S. Richards. aged 20, was unit
ed in marriage on March % to Miss
Tillie H. Tenneson, aged "a, very
attractive looking waitress at the
P. and l.. cafeteria.
Their honeymoon was short. Mrs.
pandYs latest matrimonial venture
and arrived from her home in Min
nesota, to confer with the officials.
Richards is in Jail and his bride
is back at the cafeteria feeding the
multitudes and trying to forget
her troubles.
Richards came here and secured
employment as a Great Northern
brakeman. While slowing away
ham and eggs and other choice
viands at the cafeteria, he was not
so busily engaged but what he had
time to cast love glances at the
pretty fair-haired maiden who wait
ed on him. He made his advances
with such telling effect that after
he had eaten but five meals at the
place, he had persuaded the girl to
marry him, making glowing prom
ises of money. and a home with
. nothing but happiness in store for
them.
Wife No. isn't so slow. She
appears to have been familiar with
hubby's matrimonial ventures which
he seems to perform every now
and then for sake Of diversion.
She appeared on the scene in Mi
not the last of the week, acquainted
Judge Murray with the true facts
and secured a warrant for the ar
rest Of her husband, charging him
with bigamy. Richards did not
know that his true wife was in Mi
not and when ken before the
states attorney he almost convinced
that official that he was being i'm
posed upon, but just as he stepped
from the private office, he met his
wife who had just come into the
place. He tried in vain to get
away from Chief of Police Dan
Dougherty. He wanted to step
across the street for a minute to
see witness. The chief went
along, but the witness had disap.
peared. Richards is in the county
Jail where he will remain until
trial. His wife says that this is not
the first time he has had more than
one wife on his hands at the same
time.

city, but it has been suggested to US
on several occasions that If the city
did not have money with which to
put the streets in the condition they
should be, the necessary amount
could easily be raised by reducing
the salary of the lily marshal. This
officer has been drawing $50 per
month, and about all the work the
city has for him during good
share Of the time is to look after
the ! city pumping station. He
spends the balance of his time in
policing the town. 1nasmuch as
there are three peace offers in the
sheriff's office practically all the
time there is little necessity for ad-
ditional policing of the town. 1t
has been suggested that there, are
several men in town that have 9th
er regular employment who would
be glad to do the work which has
been done by the city marshall for
about $50 per month. This would
save the city $50 each month, and
if this amount was spent as fast as
it was saved in hauling gravel into
the mud holes it would only be a

would have the best streets of any
city in the state. This is only a
suggestion. We don pretend to
know how the city should be run,
and we don't want to dictate to the
mayor and city council, who have
no doubt made a study of these
things. But the mud holes should
be looked after this summer, as If
they are allowed to stand for anoth-
er year it will be impossible for
anyone to even drive into town
with a team. The business men of
the city as we'll as the residents,
who take pride in their town
should not be made to suffer the
disgrace of these mud holes any
longer.

about the arrangements between
the agents and the parties who list
ed the lands for sale last summer.
The situation is serious for the set
tiers, as they claim to have put up
all the money they could spare in
shipping here and can get no other
farms, as all good farms are rented
at this season of the year.
AS the agents that sold this land
are not residents Of Langdon or of
this county. and some of the own
ers of the lands are non-residents
it is impossible to get full inform
alton as to these transactions. The
contracts held by some Of these
settlers indicate that they are get
ting decidedly raw deal. they
are having the matter considered
by an attorney and 1t is hoped that
they will push the cases to the ljla-
it.
