RUSH AID FOR FARMS
North Dakota Legislature Convenes
Today-Bin to Provide 5000, 900.

Bismarck, N. D., Jan. 23-The North
Dakota legislature today convened in a
special session called to pass legislation
necessary to give farmers financial aid
to permit increased production.
Gov Lynn j. Frazer, in his message
to the special session, declared finan-
cial aid from the state is needed to
relieve suffering among farmers.
Thousands of farmers, he said, are
facing acute conditions because of the
bad crop last fall. The average farmer
in North Dakota raised less than seven
bushels of low grade wheat to the
acre With government regulation of
prices, he got an average of $1.S5 a
bushel for the wheat, Gov. Frazer de-
clared.
Eighty-five per cent of the popula-
ton of North Dakota is agricultural.
These farmers, Gov. Frazer pointed out
oversubscribed the liberty-loan 10 per
cent, after heavily drawing on their
credit to plant increased acreageS, as
urged by the federal government.
bill is ready for introduction in
the house which will permit the state
to extend its credit to farmers, to the
extent of 100000, the amount esti-
mated by Agricultural Commissioner
Hagen, as needed.
Prohibition leaders are expected to
ask the special session to ratify the
national prohibition amendment.
North Dakota has been constitutionally
dry since admitted to the union.

partment confirms the ''plucking

officer will be ordered back to his

They warned that while the in

no reason to feel that collapse is at

against the building of false hopes

WHISPERS IDEAS
Government Man Says He Got
Them From Mail RObber.
He Tried To Initiate an Outlaw
Captured in Topeka.

Omaha, Neb., Jan. 23.-Captain
Lewis R. Whistler, who recently
robbed the Camp Funston bank and
murdered four men with an ak, got
his idea how to commit the crime
from experience gained while he was
in the United States railway mail
service. according to r. S. Brauer.
superintendent of the Fourteenth di-
vision of the railway mail service with
headquarters in Omaha.
'I was positive, as soon as I read
the account of the crime, that the
murderer was a former railway mail
clerk said Supt. Brauer.
81 knew it because Captain Whistler
at Camp Funston perpetrated his
crime in precisely the same manner
as a robber named Wells, whom ran
to earth and convicted in 1912. Wells
robbed a mail car on the main line
of the Union Pacific in November.
1912, at that time Whistler was a mail
clerk on a Union Pacific branch line,
his run extending from Salina over
the branch line to Oakley, Kan,
where the branch connected again
with the main line.
Ca~sht Robber on Train.
II was inspector stationed at Kan
sas City. One night l got a report
that a bandit had robbed the mail
car on a train that left Kansas City
at 10 o'clock at night He had left
the train at Lawrence and all trace
of him was lost. / got in communi-
cation with all the towns around there
and we captured Wells that same
night in a berth on the very train
which he had robbed.
He had concealed himself in the
mail car until it was well out of
Kansas City. Then he covered the
clerk with a revolver. He pulled a
bunch of buckskin throngs out of his
pocket and ordered one of the clerks
to tie the hands CT the other clerks
behind them. When he had done so
he tied the hands of the last clerk.
You will remember that Captain
Whistler pulled a bunch of tent cords
out of his pocket, ordered one of the
bank clerks to tie up the others and
then tied the last man himself. Pre-
cisely the same procedure as Wells.
Clever Coup at Lawrence.
wells looted the mail car. taking
all the registered mail with him.
When the train stopped at Lawrence
he jumped out of the door on the off
side of the train, ran around the
back end, entered the station from
the street side, passed on thru to
the train and went into Pullman
car.
When the train reached Topeka,
officers were there to search it.
Looking into one berth, they found
Wells fully dressed and with a re-
volver pointed at them. He fired.
The officers jumped on top of him
and captured him. He had the loot
from the mail car with him.
