where she lay unconscious from
o'clock in the morning until the time
of her death, about o'clock Friday
afternoon. Apparently no attempt
was made to summon a physician.
Sentiment in the Courtenay district
is said to be bitter against the Nc
Donnells and a crowd of more thar
300 gathered at the railroad wher
officers left for jamestown with the
prisoners.
Three Of the remaining five Melon.
nell children are underfed, being
nothing but skin and bones, examin'
ing physicians report.
Mcdonnell, in his wild dash for lib.
erty Sunday across the country made
a spectacular journey to escape the
clutches of the law, it develops. Nc.
Donnell left his home at Courtenay
at II o'clock in the morning, reach,
ing Hannaford 80 miles north, at 5
o'clock that afternoon. Mcdonnell
made the trip in six hours afoot
Tracks, followed by the posse were
wide, indicating he had loped the
majority of the distance.
Courtenay citizens and farmers in
the immediate vicinity were incensed
Monday at the results of the post
mortem, over a thousand persons
were in Courtenay all day. Threats
of lynching were made and officers of
the law took every precaution to pro-
tect the two prisoners; who were
brought to jamestown last night on
belated train No. 1. Mcdonnell will
be subjected to a grilling third degree
this afternoon. Prominent Courtenay
citizens and others, who know of the
brutal acts of Mcdonnell in the past,
will probably be called to testify.
Mcdonnell refuses to discuss the
tragedy and places all the blame on
his wife, his testimony at the in
quest being that he never abused the
children and that all punishment was
inflicted by Mrs. Mcdonnell.

was folly to think that any good
legitimate newspaper would be put
out of business by the newspaper
law.
Elevator For Williston
Being asked by gentleman in the
audience if Williston or Williams
county would have any chance to get
any Of the state owned industries he
stated that some money would prob
ably be spent here on the Ignite
coal proposition and that without a
doubt q terminal elevator would be
located at Williston.
Mr.. Liggett closed his address with
tribute to the legislators who pass
ed the new issues and called on the
people to stay away from any spe-
cial elections that will add more ex-
pense to the state and which are be-
ing put on by the big interests out
side the state.

would take care of itself if the Gov
ernment would do nothing but keep
its hands off business and let the
law of supply and demand run its
course. These latter were disposed
to believe prices in the building and
construction industries were too high
For this reason a statement by
Prof. Irving Fisher Of Yale Univer'
sity, an acknowledged authority on
price and market conditions, in which
he says the United States has reach.
ed a new price level and it is doubt.
full if prices ever again will 60 back
to the pre.war level, was read with
interest. Prof. Fisher says that one
certain way to bring about business
stagnation is for everybody to wait
for business to get better. Prof
Fisher states it this way:
"The fundamental practical ques-
tion confronting business men is
whether the general level of prices
is going to fall. In my opinion, it, is
not going to fall much, if at all. We
are on a permanently higher price
level and the sooner the business men
of the country take this view and
adjust themselves, to it, the sooner
will they have themselves and the ma
ton from the misfortune which will
come, if we persist in our present
false hope"
This international authority on
prices shows there have been times in
history when new price levels were
established. He says:
"The general level of prices de.
pends upon the volume and rapidity
of turnover of the circulating medium
in relation to the business to be
transacted thereby. If the number
of dollars circulated by cash and by
check doubles, W lille the number Of
goods and services exchanged there
by remain constant, prices will double.
"The great price changes in his
tory have come about in just this
manner. The Price revolution of
the sixteenth century came upon Eur
ope as a result Of the great influx
of gold and silver from the mines of
the New World. Europe was flooded
with new money. More counters were
used than before in effecting ex-
changes, and prices became high
People talked then of temporary in
flation. just as they talk of it now.
But it was not temporary; it was
new price level. A similar increase
in prices all over the world occurred
between 1896 and 1914 following the
discovery of the rich gold fields Of
South Africa, Cripple Greek and
the invention of the cyanide
process in mining, and the vast ex-
tension of the use of bank credit"
After analyzing our gold supply
and credits and pointing out that
prices in Europe are higher than in

Business men should face the fact.

GRANDMA USED SAGE
TEA TO DARKEN HAIR
She mixed Sulphur with it to
Restore Color, Gloss,
Youthfulness.

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn
gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully
dark and luxu-iant. Just few applica-
tions will prove revelation if your hair
is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the
Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home,
though, is troublesome. An easier way is
to get a 5O-cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound at any drug store
all ready for use. This is the old time
recipe improved by the addition of other
ingredients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our youth
full appearance and attractiveness. BY
darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell,
because it does it SO naturally, so evenly.
You just dampcn sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at time; by
morning all gray hairs have disappeared,
and, after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark,
glossy, soft and luxuriant.
This preparation is a delightful toilet
requisite and is not intended for the cure,
mitigation OF prevention of disease.

years the raise in taxes is very slight
and a man who paid 500 in taxes
last year would only have to pay
$108 this year. AS to the amount
this will raise for the state Mr.. Iiig-
gett stated that it would bring in
about five million each year.
Bonding Issue
Mr.. Liggett told that every poll
tician who was at Bismarck who op-
posed the bond issue and the relation
of it to the school fouds has lived in
cities and towns Of the state and have
practiced this exact kind of legis-
lation themselves. He stated that he
was talking to a citizen of Fargo the
other day who was opposed to this
measure and that he stoo don bond
ed sidewalk and backed up against
bonded lamp post which was near
a bonded curb on street that had
been paved by bonding the city. The
question was brought up to him by
someone in the audience who handed
him clipping from the Grand Forks
Herald which quoted Carl Kisitzky
on this subject and which declared
that farmer who paid $40 in form
Ell. years in taxes would pay $40 this
year. Mr.. Liggett stated that friend
Kositzky was not as we'll posted on
this subject as he might be and that
he had made many statements that
he could not back up.

Mr.. Liggett gave brief outline
of the Mcdonald Nelson affair is
Bismarck and stated that the league
had not sanctioned any Of McDonald's
moves either one way or the other
and that the league papers had taken
the neutral side of the question. He
stated that Mcdonald had brought
on this action on his own accord. In
regard to Miss Nelson he said "she
will have more rights and exercise
more authority than any superinten.

before. f@

Much stress was laid by Mr.. Lig-

WOULD STIMULATE
BUSINESS BY BUILDING
GOVERNORS AND MAYORS TO
HELP BUSINESS THRU BUILD.
ING AND CONSTRUCTION

The Governors and Mayors in at.
tedance on the recent Washington
conference appear to have been con-
viEseS.. pretty generally, of two
thirt :. There is to be no immediate
or MARKED reduction in the price OF
building materials and labor wages,
and an immediate resumption of
building and construction activities
throughout the country, mo re than
any other one thing, is essential if
business is to get back to the "as
usual" basis of peace, or the "better
than usual" possibilities of the pres
ent and future.
Some went to the conference be-
lieving materially lower prices might
be had if the Federal Government
would "just do something" Others
were convinced, that the situation
Williston graphic., 1919-03-20

To talk reverently of 19l3.14 prices
is to speak dead language today.
The buyers Of the country, since the
armistice, have made an unexampled
attack on prices through their wait
ing attitude, and yet price recessions
have been insignificant. The reason
is that we are on a new high price
level, which will be found stubborn
reality. Business men are going to
find out that the clever man is not
the man who waits, but the one who
finds out the new price facts. and
acts accordingly" ."
At the same time Prof. Fishers
conclusions were made known there
came from the Division Of Public
Works and Construction Development
of the U. S. Department of Labor
resume of the work of ten or twelve
experts on price and market condi-
tions. Here again it was made
plain there is no evidence justifying
the expectation of general, material
reduction in the price level. This re-
port makes these statements:
"The fast is that cost of construc-
ton is not high today. 1t is low COM
pared with food, clothing and COM
modities in general. Although some
readjustments in the wages Of in
dividual trades and in the prices of
individual classes of building mater
ials may take place, the cost of con-
struction will not come down to such
an extent as to endanger a judicious
investment made today IN the erec-
tion of new building"
The Washington conference was
called to discuss ways and means of
stimulating business and providing
buffer employment for labor during
the period necessary for Industrial
readjustment. 1t was submitted that
building and construction work serv-
ed these two purposes more complete
ly and directly than any other indus
try. 1t was brought out that the
country is short between 100000 and
million homes. Therefore, while
public officials are going in for pub
lie improvements, many communities
are organizing "own home" cam
paigns. These serve several impor-
tant and desirable ends. Home
owning means home building,
home building means labor and
stimulates business in every locality
where dwelling is built, the home
owner is a better citizen because his
very ownership makes him respon-
sible and Immediately interested in
the social and political welfare Of his
community. Further, the home own
er does not take up quickly with radi-
cal movements such as now are
threatening the security of govern
mehts in Europe.
The Department of Labor, through
the Division of Public Works and
Construction Development, is cooper
ating with many communities in the
Gown Your Home" movement.
