HEAVY WIND o
STRIKES N
EARLY THIS MORNING

Minot, N. D.. June So.-A wind
storm that had the ear marks of a
cyclone swept through Stanley early
this morning and according to
meagre reports reaching Minot caused
damage to a number of buildings. The
wind blew two box cars standing on
the Great Northern siding onto the
main track near Italy and caused the
wreck of the fast mail going west.
Fireman Algers was badly bruised but
not seriously injured. No one else
was injured. Telephone and tele-
graph wires are Town. The wreck
tied up train service from the west,
hence it cannot be learned just what
damage has been done. The wind
was quite strong in Minot. breaking a
number of street lights. General rain
fell throughout the northwestern part
of the state during the night.

the advancing Of narrow, i%ntolerant
views. and the proposing Of re-
strtctive and Expressive laws which,
II adopted, would convert our re-
hgious liberty into an empty phrase.
The cry for unity and uniformity
is now constantly being dinned into
U ears, and some gq to such absurd
because we have one country and n
flag we must all be exactly alike in
all respects-even in speech. thoughts
and belief"
In taking up the question as to
whether the Lutheran church should
recede from its traditional attitude
toward other churches, Professor
Hove said that Lutherans did not be-
lieve the only Christians we're found
among themselves. The true church
of Christ consists of all those who in
their hearts truly believe in Christ
as their Savior. no matter to what
race or country or ecclesiastical or
ganization they may belong" the
speaker said.
Faithful TO Teachings.
Professor Hove said. however, that
I.utherans do M think they have any
right to abandon, change or ignore
any of the teachings of the Lord, and
that they do not believe they have
any right to ignore His solemn warn
ings against all false teachings.
I'VE do not believe that we have
any right to encourage or sanction
any such teachings by affiliating with
those who publicly declare their pur-
pose is to disseminate such teach
ings."
In conclusion the speaker said:
The war has shown us what enor-
nous sacrifices people may make and
what prodigious efforts they may put
forth when a great cause is at stake.
Let us learn from h war to make
greater exertions and sacrifices. TO
put forth greater effolts in behalf of
our cause. and let US not doubt the
promises of the Lord as to results,
though they may often seem disap-
pointing"

by a desire to avoid the possibility OF

CITIES SAVE WITH
MOTOR FLUSHER
Street Commissioners Re-
ports Reveal Advantage
Over Horse Equipment.

street commissioners throIg hout
the United States and Canada have
brought out some interesting facts
and figures relative 20 the great saw
ings contaminated through the re-
placement of horse drawn equipment
by motor street flushers, according
to reports compiled hy VI. L Pull
cher, vice president and general
manager OF the Federal Motor Truck
Co. of Detroit
The report OF Andrew Macallum,
commissioner Of streets OF Ottawa,
Canada, is typical: Each OF our
flushers mounted on motor trucks
has replaced 10 horse drawn outfits.
Two 1000 gallon power flushers
mounted on IA ton trucks oper-
ated all Of 1918 flushing an average
OF IS miles Of pavement, OF all
widths per day at a cost OF SLIP
per mile. The total cost was S4,650
for $50 days OF actual operation.
The teams formerly used accom-
plished this work for SIS, S00-a d.
rect saving OF S12,15O. And the
streets were washed cleaner than
ever before. This means that 200
miles were flushed cleaner than ever
before by 2 trucks as compared with
20 horses at an actual saving Of
S12,15O.00."
In Jackson. Mich. W. B. Hodges.
city engineer, in his report says:
Prior TO the first of August, 1918.
the street cleaning equipment con-
sisted of two horse drawn machine
brooms with sprinkler attachments.
Two team and six men were required
for brushing and loading. The Fed
eral flusher effected a saving of s12
per day for teams, and requires only
four men to brush and load, the
flusher leaves a dirt line of about
20 inches in width in the gutter"
These two typical incidents are
only two of large list which has
been compiled all over the country,
and il is interesting 10 note that
the savings are greater here than
