RETURNED LETTER
CAUSES ANXIETY
Message Sent to Ben Cutting in
France, Returns With the Words
Deceased" and "Dead"

The many friends of Mr.. and Mrs.
O.. S. Cutting are sharing their anx-
iety over the uncertainty of the fate
of their son, Ben Cutting, who is in
France with the United States ma
rines.
Early in the week Mrs. Cutting re-
ceived a letter, which had been sent
to Ben in one of the French hospitals.
The letter was from a. French girl
and the addressee not being found,
the words "Dead" and Deceased"
were scrawled across the face of the
envelope and sent to Mrs. Cutting.
Ben had been wounded and in the
latest letter received by his parents
he was in Caen, French army hos
pital, and said he was nearly ready
to 60 back to his company.
Since no official word has been re-
ceived by the Cuttings regarding their
sons death, it seems very probable
that hospital authorities might have
erred; and since he had left the hos
pital, confused him with some one
who died about that time.
Mr.. Cutting wired Immediately to
the war office at Washington and
Senator Walsh informed him at once

CHARLES OLSON
DIES AT CAMP DODGE
Valley County Boy Who Left With
the July Quota From Glasgow,
Meets Death

After brief month in training
camp, Charles Olsen, who left Glas-
gov July 26 with the draft quota
passed away Sunday, September l, at
Camp Dodge, Iowa.
The startling news that their son
was at deaths door reached the boys
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. P. A. Olsen
of Culbertson Saturday, August 81.
Mrs. Olsen Immediately prepared to
go to Des Moines the next day on
No. 2. Early Sunday morning an
other telegram arrived, stating that

developed in the boys ear. He was
operated upon, but did not survive
the operation.

MATT MURRAY HEADS
FOURTH LOAN DRIVE
MAYOR OF GLASGOW is THE VALLEY COUNTY
CHAIRMAN FOR THE NEXT BOND CAM
PAIGN, TO BEGIN SEPTEMBER %

Mayor Matt Murray has re .eived
word from headquarters at Mime
apolis that he is to have charge of the
fourth liberty loan drive in Valley
county.
No definite information has been
received as to the amount of the quota
tor Valley county or the dates the
bonds will be payable.
AS soon as further instructions ar
rive, the chairman will appoint his
committees in Glasgow and the rest
of the county and assign the quotas
to the various districts preparatory
to another big rush cover the top
as in previous campaigns.
The big drive will start on the
morning of Saturday, September 2S
and will close promptly on the night
of Wednesday, October 2, giving just
five days for the committee to work
but it bonds are signed for as rap
idly as in other campaigns, the great
er part of the work will be over by
the first night.
Az Per Cent Interest
Secretary McAdoo has definitely
announced that the fourth liberty loan
bonds will bear Az per cent interest.
The secretary has been insistent that
the government interest rate should
be stabilized at AZ per cent. He points
out that a raise in the rate of inter-
est of only "A of 1 per cent on S1O,-
OOO,O00,OOO of government bonds
would mean an annual increase of
S25,0OO,000 in interest charges, and
that this money would have to be
raised by increased taxation on and
paid by the people of the country. 1t
would not be paid by one class only
because there are consumption as well
as other kinds of taxes, and the con-
sumption taxes reach every class OF
people.
GAS an intelligent people, said
Secretary McAdoo during the third
liberty loan campaign, 1--WE should
now make stand for the financing
of our government during the period
of this war at stabilized rate of in
terest, say at AZ per cent per annum
so that all business and all invest
ments may be adjusted to that basis
and so that we ourselves may pro.
tect ourselves against successfully
increased rates of interest on govern
ment loans." .,..r
/ Neither our patriotism nor our sup
port of the liberty loans are meas
ured in fractions of per cent.
What the District Did
The ninth district comprises thu
states of Minnesota, North Dakota
South Dakota, Montana, part of Wis
consin and the northern peninsula oi
Michigan. With a population of lie
tie over 5000 900. the district last
spring subscribed $1SO,OOO,OOO. II

POLICEMAN HOLD UP AUTOS

Butte-The "Swat the KAISER
booth furnished real live human in
terest story every minute of the day
and evening during the six days of
it's existence. Aid was freely given
from all sides and every one was
anxious to pull the cleverest stunt to
sell war savings stamps.
The chief of police had been re-
quested to send one or two of his
men for an attack on the cash regis
ter. One of the plain clothes men
sent down was a real red booded
American, who did not believe in
standing back seeing the ladiee do all
the work of selling. He sold stamps,
too, and a good amount at that, for
all his sales were S. or more each.
His speciality was the driver of cars,
who were safe from attack by the
lady stamp sellers. but not so from
this officer. AS the car approached
the booth, the officer ordered it to
stop and displayed his star. The
driver, while obeying the command
to stop, angrily asserted he was not
speeding or in any way disobeying
the traffic laws. The officer would
then produce the S. Of thrift stamps
and the driver, with a smile, would
buy. Thus the auto driver invested
several hundred dollars in war saw
ings stamps.

H. A. SAMPSON is
MAYOR OF NASHUA

The city election held in Nashua
on Tuesday of last week, as previously
predicted in these columns, was a
very spirited affair. H. A. Sampson,
candidate for mayor, was the only
man who received much of majority
for municipal office. On the north
side Alfred Lee was an easy winner
over his opponent, Swanson, who
polled but six votes. C. A. Gilbert
was defeated by l. j. Smith, who ran
very strong.
AS aldermen on the south side J.
R. Murphy and Dan Jackson each re-
ceived Is votes and the losers II
votes.
The new council for the town of
Nashua will organize in the future,
after which we will have municipal
government, capable of running the
town in proper business like way,
from which we should derive untold
benefit.-Nashua Independent.

oversubscription was made before any
other district in the United States.
With an improved organization of
practically 10000 men, an increased
number of soldiers serving in France
as an incentive to liberal loaning,
with an exceptionally good crop, the
district is in a much better position
than it was at the beginning of the
loan last spring.
Winning Is Matter of Money
Winning this war is a matter of
money. When you buy a liberty bond
it means money for the United States
treasury. During the coming year,
this nation must raise $24, 900, ,O0O,0 900.
About S16,000,000,0OO of this must be
raised by loans and 0,ooo 900 by
taxation. If we do not raise the
money, the United States treasury
will have failed. When the United
States treasury fails, the war is lost.
If the war is lost, democracy is lost
the world is lost.
Thus we get some idea Of what each
individual must do. He must save, do
without luxuries, he must get along
with what lie has rather than buy
things that are not absolutely neces-
sary. He must do those things only
which are Of productive value. He
must simplify and cheaper his diet.
In short, he must in every possible
of the nations labor, time and effici-
way use for his own comfort as little
ency as possible. He must loan every
cent of money possible and loan it to
the government. In this way only
can citizen live up to his patriotic
duty and do his part towards winning
and ending the war.
The people of the ninth district
seem to realize all of these things and
at least 100000 of them will do
their fair share.

The Beedes lived here several years
and are we'll known among the early
settlers in the county. Mr.. Beede,
who was civil war veteran, died over
20 years ago and was buried in the
Glasgow cemetery. Mrs. Beede has
been living with her daughter, Mrs.
Nettie Wagar, in Bellingham, WASH,
for the past few years. She was i'll
for four months before death finally
released her from her suffering.
She is survived by her sons, Clar-
ence and William, both of Glasgow;

and Guy Beede, who is in the army.
Her daughters are Mrs. Kate Adding
