MANY NEW INFLUENZA
CASES THRUOUT COUNTY
No Public Meetings Of Any Sort Al
lowed in Morris Until Further
Notice

Soon after the papers were pub
lished last week stating that the in
f1uenza was under control and that
schools, churches and theatres would
open, there were several new cases
discovered and the ban was put on
the city tighter than ever. Every
sort of public meeting was forbidden
for an indefinite period and ice
cream parlors and pool halls were
ordered to allow no large gatherings
to take place and no one is permitted
to sit at tables to eat ice cream.
During the last ten days influenza
has been at it's height in the city
of Norris and there are now between
so and rs cases, some of which are
very serious. Frank Thrallow and
five children are in bed, but Mrs.
ThrallOw is still able to be about.
Several members at the Christ Oke-
son home are sick and baby of Mr..
and Mrs. John Peterson. Ed. Sher-
vim, Jr., is very low at this writing

War Savings Stamps

There has been a misunderstand-
ing between the Postoff1ce Depart
ment and the State w. S. S. Com
mittee in regard to checking up the
pledges taken on our June w. S. s..
Drive. A recent ruling Of the postal
authorities make it necessary that
other arrangements be made. This
will entail lot Of work on the part
of those who have done so much on
the job. 1t is strongly urged that
each person that has made pledge
get their stamps at once and be ready
to report at the first call that is
made on them. Many have reported
that they have taken out more than
they pledged. If you have done this
be sure and report it that we may
make up the little that we lacked in
going over the top with our drive.
We want the fact Of going over a
matter of record. Be sure to get
the stamps at any bank or postoffice
this month. They will cost you less
the hands of the government to get
our boys back from the front with
out delay. I want to call your at
tention to the fact that one year
having gone by in the 1918 series
W. S. S. they will pay about per
cent on the investment. This is
more than any other government Sc
curity pays. Better have your
banker put aside for you all that you
will be able to take up during the
next year. The stamps laid away for
you in this manner are in your posses
sion and fulfill all the conditions Of
your pledge and should be reported
as your own holdings.

GENERALIZATION WILL
BE STARTED AT ONCE
Soldiers in Camps Within United
States Will Be Released
... First

General Peyton G. March, chief of
day that demobilization of America s
fighting forces is to begin at once.
First will come the dicharge of L.
100000 soldiers in camps within the
United States, 100000 to be released
within the next two weeks. 1t is
expected that these soldiers will be
discharged at the rate of 10000 a
day, as soon as the demobilization
machinery gets moving in full op-
Grafton.
Troops at the front will be re-
turned as speedily as possible and
it is expected the first one will ar
rive home about the first of Febru-
ary.
AS the men arrive from France,
they will be sent to camps nearest
to their homes, regardless of their
original training camp.
The Rainbow Division, which con-
tains many Minnesota boys and
troops from the middle west. Gen
eral March declared, would be given
special consideration in demobiliza-
ton plans because of it's brilliant
record and unusual composition
from 26 states.
No definite date for beginning de-
mobilization of troops abroad has
been set, and cannot be now.
In explanation of the need for

with the flu, said to be the result Of
a party held one evening. In the
country there are many cases of in
fuenza. Every member of the AL
fred Swanson family north of Nor
ris is sick, and also all in the Storck
family. In Synnes the flu seems to
be still at work and seven of the
Simon Wickstrom family are in bed
and one boy in this family died
Tuesday.
I At Hancock and Herman the in
! f1uenza is said to be very bad. The
doctors of Morris are receiving
calls from these towns every day and
they are doing everything possible
to control the disease and are work
ing almost night and day. There
are more cases in Hancock than at
Morris and there has been several
deaths there.
Throughout other parts of the
state the influenza is still bad. On
the range hundreds of people are dy-
ing.
The epidemic in Minneapolis has
virtually been overcome, but in the
rural districts the disease is gaining
headway. A call for 16 physicians
was sent out by the state board of
health to combat the influenza in
towns where there is lack of ply
sicians.
New reports yesterday from 81
towns added 500 cases of influenza
and 81 of pneumonia to the state
list. Reports of 331 deaths included
1872 in Minneapolis since November
1, and 80 in st. Paul
Faribault reported 79 new cases,
with seven more in the state school
for blind, and 79 in the state school
for feeble minded, making a total of
439 among 1000 inmates Of the lat
ter institution. Fairmont listed 81
new cases since November 9, Forest
Lake reported So new cases and

ANNUAL MEETING IS +
POSTPONED TO DEC. II
Stevens, County Farm Bureau Will
Hold Annual Meeting on That
Date

The annual meeting of the Stevens
County Farm Bureau is set by the
constitution for Dec. each year, but
on account of the influenza it has
been postponed to Dec. II this year.
The executive committee of this
organization met Tuesday to con-
slider plans for a membership cam
paign, which will be held from Dec.
2 to 7. They also took up the matter
of clover seed. There is a great
scarcity of clover seed in Stevens
county but it can be gotten from
other nearby counties much cheaper
now than later on when it gets into
the hands of the seedmen. 1t can
be secured at present thru the farm
bureaus of the other counties. Any
one wanting seed should notify Mr..
Nash at once so that it can be Sc
cured.

Editor J. G. Morrison,

Dear Sir:
Your letter of the 18th at hand
relative to our armory.
The building, which was complet-
ed in Mar. 1913 cost $4,000, of
which the state gave $4,000, the
rest being subscribed by citizens of
st. Peter. Because Of the fact that
we possessed an armory. we were
given the privilege of organizing a
National Guard company this year.
The building is now being used for
their drills once each week, and for
community balls by the company
every two weeks. It has also been
rented to the Student Army Train

CAMPAIGN STILL ON
TO RAISE ALLOTMENT
County Getting Near Top in W. W.
Campaign But More Money
- Still Needed

The United War Work Campaign
is still on in Stevens county and Mr..
Stever, chairman, states that it is
expected that the original allotment
of $4,000 will be reached, and pos
sible a little over $4,000, but the
total expected, which was $4,000,
will likely not be subscribed. On
account of the bad weather, bad
roads and the influenza, the cam
paign has been delayed considerably.
The township of Swan Lake has
come up to the expectations but
there is still considerable work to
be done by the executive committee.
Theo. Storck and those who worked
with him have done fine work and
been out in rough weather and bad
roads to raise the amount exepcted.
Henry Johnson was chairman in
Morris township and w. F. Rotramel
chairman in Darnen township, and
both of these men with their COM
mittees have done excellent work.
In Framnas township Hans Hegland
was chairman and he. and his COM
mittee have worked hard but are
still behind their allotment and have
more work to do. The township of
Eldorado has not been thoro1y work.
ed yet, due to the illness of the
chairman.
Russell Spicer of Willmar, chair
man of this district, has the follow
ipo IN COW oonoorpipo Tho dr;x,o.
"Conditions of affairs in this dis
trict are not the best. From almost
every county there is the same re-
port that subscriptions are held back
and delayed on account of the epid-
emic. In some counties they have
not even made start and in others
they are not half thru, but even with
this every county chairman reports
splendid prospects for over-subscrip-
tions and I think the district as a
whole at the final reckoning will
make splendid showing"
The Morris district has raised in
cash $4,Soi.3S, in pledges $1797,
and $500 more is anticipated, max
ing total of $7,454.33. The Han
cock district has not made a report
yet, but it is expected that 1854
will be raised in cash and pledges.
The Donnelly district reports $1346
in cash, 1910 in pledges and $500
more anticipated, making total Of
$2216.00. Chokio has raised $1798
in cash and expect to raise SASS
more, making a total Of $2256. The
Alberta district has $1502.35 in
cash, $500 in pledges and 500
anticipated, making total Of
$1690.55. If all the money comes
in that is anticipated the total
raised in the county will be $17,-
being little less than $500
of what was wanted here.
Returns from national headquart-
ers of the United War Work Cam
paign at New York last night showed
that 80 states are over the top, six
having passed the $50 per cent mark.

Question Of Issuing $4,000 Bonds
$4,000 for Armory and $4,000
for City Building
MONEY AT 4 PER CENT
State Will Give $4,000 Outright
More Comments from Towns
Having Armories


the question of issuing $4,000
Ia bonds, $4,000 of which will be
used to aid in the construction and
equipment Of an armory, and $4,000
for the construction of municipal
Office and fire department building.
1t is planned that achitecturally the
two buildings will be one, and will
The title to the armory and the
ground on which it stands will vest
in the state, while the, title to the
municipal building will remain in
the city. The line of division be-
tween the two buildings will be a
party wall, which will not, however,
affect the symmetry of the building
as a whole. 1t is expected that the
building, if authorized by the voters,
will be placed on the present site of
the armory and the school district
property adjoining, and that the
northerly end of the building will be
the municipal building, and that the
part devoted to a fire hall will have
its entrance on Sixth street.
Assurances have been received
from the State Board of Investment
that the bonds can be sold to the
state at four per cent, and the cleo
tion is being held in accordance with
the rules of the State Board of In
vestment.
AS heretofore stated, the state of
Minnesota will give $4,000 out
right toward the cost of the armory
building.
The necessary resolution calling
the election was passed by the City
Commission on Tuesday evening,
following a meeting at which the
armory committee of the Commercial
Club and the City Commission went
over the whole proposition.
Taxpayers will be interested to
know that the present bonded in
debtedness of the city of Norris is
only S25,300, distributed in three
issues, and that the only other in
debtedness of the city is $1,000 Of
permanent revolving fund certifi
Gates, which will be paid as soon as
special assessments are collected,
and $4,000 of Waterworks Certi-
ficates, which will be paid by the
receipts from the waterworks. It is
proposed that the armory and NUM-
cipal building bonds begin to ma
ture on July 1, 1929 and mature at
the rate of $1,5O0 each year for ten
years. In that way, these bonds will
not begin to mature until after all
the other outstanding city bonds
have been paid.
Another installment of letters
from editors in towns having ar
mories is published this week. At
tention is particularly called to the
letter from st. Peter, where the ar
mory is used by the Student officers
Training Corps. After the war,
there is going to be some kind of
preparedness program worked out,
and it will undoubtedly centre
around the secondary schools and
the state militia. Morris is already
the educational centre for West
Central Minnesota, and the location
of an armory here adds just one
more educational plant for the edu-
cational needs of the day. The let

Bozeman, Mont, Nov. 3.-There has
| Just left Montana. to enter the sol
dlers home near Los Angeles, calf.
one of the picturesque figures of the
state.
| lie is John Anderson, eX-slave, eX-
regular army soldier, and forty-siX
years resident of Bozeman. AM
derson is noted throughout the state,
and widely known in army circles as
the man who killed Sitting Bulls son
and broke the heart of the Sioux
warrior
Anderson was born in slavery in the
Cherokee nation, now Oklahoma. Sc
years ago. His father was full
blood Cherokee. His mother was a
Iuli-blood negress. Slavery was not
presumed to exist in that section, but
is said to have flourished and many
Indians and half-breeds were under
the yoke.
In the latter part of 1861, Anderson
ran away and joined the union army.
he fought throughout the civil war
ana served in the regulars some time
after it.
Leaving the army in 1872, Ander-
led a party Of gold miners to a strike
reported on Porcupine creek, Just be-
low The Rosebud. Frank Grounds
OF Bozeman was captain of the ex-
petition and Anderson was guide
While trekking past the site of what
later witnessed the battle of Yellow
stone, where General Cuscter later
met his death, the gold hunters were
attacked by large band of Sioux
the Indians numbered several hun
dreds, the white men only a score.
Little Sitting Bull, son of the chief,
who was even then famous, was lead
ing the redskins and made himself un-
duly conspicuous. At critical mo-
ment Anderson ran upon the red chief
with his pistol and shot him dead. The
Indians retreated.
The sons fall, it is said, confirmed
Sitting Bulls determination to try to
wipe out the whites and led to the In
dian war that followed.
Anderson returned to Bozeman, |
where he. prospered many years He |
and his wife, who still lived owned |
coy cottage on the outskirts. But in |
creasing age largely made it difficult |
for him to earn q living and he has |
gone to the home.
Anderson was a slave of a German
in oklahoma, and the tales he tells of /
the inhuman cruelties the brute in
flicted on his helpless victims would
rank, for sheer horror, with accounts
of anything done in Belgium and
France.
