CAPT. LINSTAD
Mp. NEWSPAPER SAYS SOLDIER
AT FRONT DREW DOU-
BILE PAY.

Pierre, Oct. 10.-The last issue of
the Nonpartisan Leader, in an edi-
torial, attacks Capt. Otto Linstad, of
this city, who is fighting at the front,
making the statement that Capt. Lin
stad was carried on the state pay roll
while he was also drawing pay as a
captain in the army on the Texas
border.
The records of the state show that
Capt. Linstad was called to Redfield
before the troops went to the border
and did draw pay from the state for
a part of a month, when il was not
certain as to what he would do. But
his last warrant was issued for June,
1916, and the troops left the state for
the border the next month. This is
the record as shown by the salary
book of the state railway commits
sion, in care of Secretary Ustrud,
and the showing on the records of
the state auditor exhibited on re-
quest by Deputy Auditor Baker.

and his escape from instant death
was miraculous. as pieces OF the en-
CINE flew in every direction, one
large section of the flywheel being
thrown fully 800 feet. A mailbox
several rods distant was smashed by
a part of the flying pieces of iron
and steel. and pieces OF iron and steel
of various sizes were scattered about
promiscuously. The cause Of the ex-
plosion was the ~loosening of the rod
controlling the governor and gaso-
line feed, allowing the engine to race
at will.

convention at Hague. Sask. Resolu-
tions adopted to send delegates
to Buenos Aires, Argentina, to dis
cuss with the Argentine government
the possibility of their being permit
ted to colonize. 1t is understood that
the Canadian government will not
make any effort to hamper plans for
their departure.
Another incident which has caused
the Canadian government to oppose
Mennonite colonization is the sect's
opposition to the compulsory school
attendance act.
Rockp0rt, Oct. 10.-That the
members of what is known as the
RockpOrt Mennonite colony, near
here, have decided not to move to
western Canada, as contemplated fol
some weeks, is the report which has
been received here. They are said
to have come to the decision thai

war GARDEN ADVISORS
Held Interesting Meeting Last Night
Many Reports Of Splendid Gar.
denS are Made-PrlZeS For
April Could Not BE
Awarded.

The Ward War Garden Advisors
held their regular weekly meeting at
the Chamber of Commerce last even
ing and discussed the various prob
lens confronting the war gardeners in
their respective wards.
We understand the city of Mays
vile stands very good chance of be-
ing outclassed in the raising of food
stuffs by the county neighbors in Ok
lahoma, Clifton and Eastland. The
report says that that section of the
county is almost solid garden. Such
prominent business men as j. 7.
Kackley and L. H. Young are plant
ing quite large tract in Eastland
Mr.. Ben Cole says that everybody is
quite busy in the First Ward and the
daylight saving plan is of great bene-
fit to the gardeners.
Mr.. Frank Clarke reports that
Judge Cochran is maintaining his
usual reputation of having one of the
best kept gardens in the Second ward
He also feels that special mention is
due MIR. E. p. Lee and City Treasurer
Andrew NJ. January for the splendid
efforts they are putting forth.
Rev. w. b. Campbell is sure that DR.
John w. Cartmell will be found in the
front ranks when honorable mention
| is aw?rded the gardeners. He believes
that Mr.. James Greenlee has most ev-
erything there is to be raised planted
in his garden.
Mr. w. o. Outten says that Tuce
Willett of Plum street is doing his
best to assist Uncle Sam in winning
the war by planting one of the big
gest gardens in the Fourth ward.
Miss Florence Wilson is deserving
much credit for the splendid effort
she is making to have fine garden.
He savs that this is the first time In
his recollection that the north side
of Herds Hill has been plowed and
garden planted.
Mr.. ]. B. Orr reports that only one
family in the Fifth Ward will not
have War Garden and they give the
satisfactory excuse that they can't
find tie ground upon which to raise
one. This surely speaks well for the
residents of that ward and we doubt
if many such situations will be found
in this country. Col. Sidney Keith has
