The people cannot be expected. to draw very largely upon their de- posits in savings banks; nor is that desirable. since it would compel the marketing of high grade securities. If, must be remembered that we are not in the position in which Great Britain found herself at the beginning of the war. able to sell large amounts of good securities to rich outside huyers.

B0TTINEAU COUNTY PEOPLE TO

BIG PATRIOTIC DEMONSTRATION TO BE HELD AT FAIR GROUNDS
NEXT TUESDAY, In WHICH ALL THE PEOPLE OF BOTTINEAU
COUNTY ARE ASKED TO PARTICIPATE.

Every patriotic citizen of Bot
Ftineau county is urged to attend the
monster Loyalty Day celebration to
be held at the Bottineau County fair
grounds next Tuesday.
The day will be fittingly observed
in doing honor to the Bottineau
county soldier boys who leave soon
to participate in the great world
conflict.
While the celebration is given for
the enlisted men, it is the desire that
every person in Bottineau county who
can possibly do so be in attendance
to show the proper respect and honor
due those who will be on the battle
front for Bottineau county.
The celebration is by no means a
Bottineau affair, but one in which
the entire county is expected to
participate and cooperate. The fact
that Bottineau is the mobilization
point and that the enlisted men viii
entrain at this point makes Bottineau
the logical place for a county observ-
ance Of this nature.

by the committee in charge is publish

Washington, Aug. 25.-Radical
changes IN previous orders Tor mobili-
zatlon OF the national army recruits

nounced Dy the provost marshal
generals office tonight.
Under the new RUE, only S per
cent OF the men will be sent to
camp Sept. S. Under the former or
der, 81 per cent OF the men were to
be sent. Under the new order 40 per
cent Of the men will be sent on Sept.
19, 40 per cent more on Oct. 3, and
the other Is per cent as soon there
after as possible.
The reason given by the provost

in the mobilization is that under the
old order railroad congestion would
have ensued which it would have been
hard to adjust.

death RESULTS
IN LAK0TA FIRE
!LAkOTA PEOPLE AROUSED
BY SEVERAL MYSTERIOUS
BLAZES,

Lakota, N. D., Aug. 27.-In a fire
on the Erich and Murphy farm, 10
miles south Of here, which Destroy
ed large barn, one man, whose
name is not known by the owners Of
the farm, was cremated, another was
badly burned, and 35 head Of horses
also were lost.
The unknown man who had been
on the farm only half a day, and the
injured man, George Gunderson, Of
Bagley, Minn., rushed into the barn to
secure some clothing. Gunderson es-
capped with bad burns about the neck
and arms, but the other man was
caught and burned to death. The
fire was noticed in the center Of the
barn about o'clock Friday evening.
An investigation was made to as
certain the origin of the blaze, and
the results lead Mr.. Erich to believe
that it had been set. Employees de-
clare that no one was smoking at the
time the fire was discovered.
The barn was valued at over $4,000
and was insured for $1,000. The IS
horses represented value of nearly
$1,000. Other farm material stored
in the barn was also destroyed.
Shed is Burned.
On Saturday night big shed own
ed by man named Frazier, who re-
sides at Owatonna, Minn., was de-
stroyed, together with the contents,
which included several billiard tables
and pool room equipment which was
owned by Mr.. Dahl of Doyon, N. D.
Fire was also discovered in the Beake
Auto company garage but was extin-
guished before much damage was
done. Both fires are believed to have
been incendiary.
One week ago an attempt was made
to burn the St. Anthony elevator
here but an employe of the local pow
er company discovered the blaze and
the flames were quenched before
they spread. This fire is believed to
have been clearly incendiary, as a
window had been kicked in and oil
had been poured over inflamable ma
terial to hurry the work Of destruc-
tion.
Officials can offer no explanation to
the outbreak of the many fires but a
close watch is now being kept on all
suspicious characters. So far there
have been no serious labor trouble
in this vicinity.

will be spared to make this a day

left behind.
Every band in the county is asked
to attend and plans are under way
for a monster consolidated band,
comprising more than hundred
pieces, to lead the parade.
On Wednesday morning the first
contingent of five per cent of Bot
tieau county's quota will entrain at
this point. For this reason it was
deemed advisable to hold the cele-
bration at this time when all would
be here to participate.
All the business places Of Bottineau
will be asked to close during the af-
te1noon.

celebration. It is the least we can do
to show proper respect for those
who are about to depart on the
most serious mission in their entire
lives.
