at Rochester, Ming. She is survived
by her husband and three daughters,
one four years old, another a year old
and the baby. She leaves her mother
and two sisters. Mrs. Luedke was an
especially bright and lovable young
woman and scores of friends will sim
cerely regret to learn of her death.
The remains have been taken to
the Weinrebe undertaking parlors and
tomorrow will be taken to West Con-
cord, Mimi, for burial.

FARMERS CAN

Some Interesting Food Regulations
Which Will Become Effective
April Is.

A. B. Dill, food administrator from
Ward county, returned from Fargo
Friday where he conferred with DR..
Ladd, state food administrator, rela-
tive to the card system which will be
put into force in the state beginning
April IS. Cards will be issued for
the sale of these commodities will be
restricted. Mr.. Dill will have large
number of these food cards printed to
be distributed over the county. These
will be sold to the merchants at a
nominal cost and in the end the con-
sumer will have to pay for them, un-
less the merchants choose to make
the consumers a present of them.
For the present the limit on sugar
is three pounds per person for a
manth, and only one months supply
can be purchased after April Is.
The limit on flour after April Is
will be one and one-half pounds per
week per person, and in towns, with
the privilege of laying in only 80 days.
supply and in the country the same
amount per person, but with the priv
ilege of laying in two months supply.
At present, rye flour, whole wheat
flour and graham flour can be bought
without substitutes and after April
Is, rye flour will not be considered
substitute 1t must be understood
that in buying ordinary flour, substi-
tutes in similar quantities must also
be purchased.
Here is something that will interest
the farmers. The farmer owning his
own land, raising wheat himself, may
exchange the wheat at the mill for
flour, or the renter growing the whea:
may exchange it in quantities equal
to the buying privileges.

DRIVERS GRABBED
State Sleuths Bring MinOt Business
men Into Court for Failure to
Show 1918 Tags on Cars.

Sixteen drivers of cars were ar
rested in Minot Friday charged with
running their cars without 1918 Ii
cense tags, and all were taken be-
fore County Judge VIM. Murray.
They pleaded guilty and were fined
$1,000 with $500 costs in each in
stance, which they paid.
The arrests were caused by two
sleuths from the state department,
who spent several days in Minot
rounding up the offenders. One of
the cars taken up was the Minot po-
lice patrol A number of our most
prominent businessmen were grabbed
Notwithstanding the fact that in
each instance the 1918 tags had been
sent for, there appear from the con-
struction of the law, that there was
nothing to do but impose the fines, as
unjust as it may seem.
One we'll known businessman, who
saw the array Of cars drawn up in
front of the court house, let his cur
iosity get the best of him. He went
several blocks out of his way to see
what all the adoo was about and he
forked over twelve "iron men" for
his trouble.

BINDER TWINE OUTPUT
AT PRISON DECREASES

Bismarck, N. D., April 5.-A short
age of prison labor at the state pen
itentiary will result in decrease in
the output of binder twine this year,
according to Chairman James Brown
Of the state board Of control. Mr..
Brown estimates the output Of bind
ing twine at the state penitentiary
plant this year at 100000 pounds as
compared with 100000 pounds last
year.
The inhabitants at the state peni-
tentiary at the present time number
164, 160 men and four women. A year
ago at this time there were 250 per-
sons at the state prison. The shortage
Of labor has made it necessary to en-
ploy two men for work in the cattle

JOSEPH CASHNAN'S
GREAT WAR ADDRESS
New York Attorney Spoke Before a
Large Audience at Presbyterian
Church and Gave Many ImpOr-
tant Facts.

On Monday night at the Presbyter-
ian church Joseph eastman of New
York delivered one of the best .argu-
ments anent the present war situa-
ton ever delivered in Minot. His ar
gument was along the line of a strong
legal mind presenting, like a well pre-
pared brief, our case before the high
est tribunal-the American people.
The following points were conspic-
uously called to our mind: "America
has twenty-one thousand miles of sea
coast to defend. Germany has nine
hundred. Germany knows Of 1873
splendid unprotected coast landing
harbors on the Atlantic coast. Ger
many recently captured about four
billion dollars worth Of supplies in
the invasion of Western Russia and is
better prepared today to continue the
war than a year ago. German offic-
ers are now training western German
Russian troops to fight against our
Allies. Many unthinking American
people say: "Why should our boys go
over there and fight for England and
France? They are not. Our boys
are fighting for US. England and
France have been fighting for US for
over three years, pouring out their
blood, not only for themselves but
for us, and the democracy of the
world.
There are two we'll known princi-
pies involved One of our beloved
great men said: Our country cannot
exist half free and half slave.
The Kaiser thinks that democracy
and autocracy cannot exist in this
world. Democracy is menace to
autocracy, therefore we will go in
for a worlds conquest and establish
worlds autocracy.
We must fight for our lives and fu-
ture happiness and America must be
100 per cent patriotic. If the Kaiser
wins every horror committed IN Bel
gium and France will be doubled here,
as Germany hates us.
In the Revolutionary war we had
our Tories, who secretly disapproved
of our war for independence. In our
Civil war we had so-called copper
heads, who secretly and openly him
dered the Union. We may have some
reverses now on the Western front IN
France. If so you will again hear
the kissing copperheads saying
"Peace, Peace" Crush them under
your heel. We cannot have peace till
we absolutely win and deal autocracy
death blow and dictate our own
terms.
England and France are both dem
ocracies. True there is George who
tentatively rules England, but it's not
King George, but Lloyd George"
Mr.. Cashman's argument was
splendid, convincing, patriotic. Every
word was the truth, yet there are
some pin-heads who criticize it. Let
us be 100 per cent patriotic and every
man, woman and child bend every en-
ergy to win. If not, God pity us.
