Hosting engineers ask for an in
creas from 1925 a day to $50, with
substantial increases for all other

based or the increased cost of living,
which is assumed from government

when the contracts were entered into.

The grain crop is virtually a total

the intense heat of the past ten days
has been severe on it. In the north
district, west of Minot, about the same

The intense heat caused some dam

relieved by rains late this week. In
the light soil district in Ransom coun-

rye has been set back quite materially
in other regions.
AS yet, the state hail losses are COM

STEPS BEING TAKEN TO
BRING KAISER TO TRIAL

London, July 1.-THE allies have not
yet made any official representations
to the Dutch government regarding
the extradition of the former German
emperor, but necessary steps are be-
ing taken in the matter, Andrew Bonar
Law, government spokesman, declared
in the house of commons today.
Mr.. Bonar Laws statement was
made in reply to a question of a men,
Der.
Answering a further question as to
whether any unofficial communication
has been sent to the Dutch govern

~ would rather not say"
Another member then asked:
els the spokesman for the govern
ment aware that nobody particularly
wants the ex-kaiser to be brought
here?"
This question was received with
cheers.

Butte, July 2.-The unions embra-

the Butte district relating to wages.
These unions ask for a wage sched-
ule of So for ~journeymen with 81 a
day for helpers with double time for
overtime and holidays, the S-hour day
to prevail except that there shall be
nc work, except overtime, on Satur-

would mean, if effective, a five and a
half day week. The miners have not
yet been heard from, but it is under
stood that underground workers, in
cluded in the metal mine workers. un-
ion are considering demands which
may be presented later.
The present scale of wages for me-
chanics at the mines is 1913 and Sc
for eight-hour days, with 81 less for
helpers. Affiliated with the Metal

AS proposed by Hugh j. Hughes,
market agent of the new state depart

require five years to reach a stage of
perfect development, but will concern
mainly clearing house problems and
leave various localities free to con-

st. Paul, June 2S.-Thousands of
sheep and cattle, starving on the dry,
brown stretches of Montana and west
tern Dakota, will be placed o nfresh
green pastures in northern Minnesota,
under a movement planned yesterday
in the state department of agriculture
at the capitol. State, railroad, live
stock, land and commercial organiza-
tions are united in the scheme to turn
the starving animals into high-priced
meat.
The conference of representatives
of various interested agencies voted to
create the Minnesota Emergency Live
Stock Grazing committee. The organ
ization is to work out solutions of the
problems Of furnishing one class of
western ranchers with grazing and
another class seeking feeder arrange.

Imperative need of prompt actor
was evidenced by reports that Mon.

GEYSER BOY Ran THROUGH
SHELLS IN HE0RIC DEED
He and Companion Awarded D. S. C.
by General Pershing for Re-
markable Feat.

Geyser, July 7.-Although Private
Philip w. Provost returned to his
home here some time ago following his
discharge from the military, it has
just been learned that he was award
ed the Distinguished Service Cross by
General Pershing for heroic conduct
while overseas. The account that has
finally been obtained of Private Pre-
vost's exploit does not come from the
soldier voluntarily, for he has but very
little to say about it, in fact, so little
that it is difficult to piece together the
story.
Private Provost left Geyser with
the second contingent Of selects and
received his initial training at Camp
Lewis. He embarked for France early
in July, 1918, and was Immediately
sent to the front with the 91st di-
vision, with which he served from the
beginning to the end Of its heroic cam
paign, except for a time when he was
in the hospital with blood poisoning
contracted as a result of a cut received
while forcing his way through German
barbed wire ENHANCEMENT.
Was in Argonne.
1t was in the Argonne, on Septem-
her %, 1918, after a series Of hot en-
counters that Private Provost, with
two other men, distinguished himself.
The Americans were steadily forcing
the enemy back, when the commanding
officer called for volunteers to go to
the front and recall the advance de-
tachment of 60 Yanks that had become
separated from the main force and
were in danger of being cut off and
completely annihilated. The distance
to be covered was about a quarter of
a mile across no mans land, with the
Huns pouring a steady rain of shells
and machine gun fire into every nook
and corner of the space. Shippers
were thick and it was a 100 to l shot
that the rescue party would not take
a dozen PAGES from their trench be-
fore being killed.
Provost and his two companions Of
fered to go. Creeping, crawling, run
ming, lodging, they crossed no mans
land, halted the advance of the little
party of Americans and helped them
give battle to the enemy until rescued
by the main body. The commanding Of
ficer was wounded in the engagement
and was in the hospital for several
months and Provost and his compan-
ions were not cited for bravery until
some time later. They did not receive
notice of the order until after they
were discharged.
The soldier says the Americans all
distinguished themselves through acts
of bravery and were always eager to
volunteer for some hazardous job when
other men were in danger. His cita-
ton reads as follows:
"Private First Glass Philip w. Pre-
vost, Company D, 364th infantry, dis
tinguished himself by extraordinary
heroism in connection with military
operations against an armed enemy of
the United States at Eclisfantaine,
France on September %, 1918, and in
recognition of his gallant conduct ]
have awarded him, in the name of the
president, the Distinguished Service
Cross. Awarded March 20, 1919.
