DARDEN WOULD RATHER
RAISE PECA Ms THAN TO
CO To THE LEG|SLT TAURE

o. X. Darden of Lone Grove was
transacting business in the city To-
day. Mr.. Darden has been mentioned
as probable candidate for the state
Legislature, but when pinned down
to tie point this morning he said
that there was absolutely nothing do
ing, he was out of politics and was
too busy looking after his farm and
pecan orchards to give politics any
thought.
Mr.. Darden was a member Of the
first board of county commissioners
after statehood and was one of the
board that contracted for, and built
the court house He was q good Of
fioer, and his many friends urged
him to ask for reelection, but he de
clined and has never accepted an Of
flee Of any kind since.
Mr.. Darden owns what is perhaps
the most valuable pecan orchard in
the state. A few years ago he graft
ed all native trees on his farm with
paper-shell buds, and now he has in
bearing over 500 trees that net him
an annual income that makes all
other farm crops look insignificant.
Beside his own trees he has budded
many for his neighbors, and within
few years he hopes TO make Carter
county the pecan center of the state.

AEROPLANEs CARRY
CANADIAN NH|SKEY

Sherwood. N. D.. Oct. 2S.--Dur-
ing the past two weeks numerous
aeroplanes have passed over this
town and vicinity ind landed III
nearby Canadian towns where, it is
understood, they took on cargoes
Of as high as 20 cases of liquor.
Some Of these planes came from as
far as Wyoming and Colorado. The
whisky planes, it has been learned,
alight close to the liquor warehouse
or few miles out of town If th:s
planes do not land near the ware
house the whisky is hauled 70 it by
auto. = -
A new liquor house has just been
opened at Gainsbcro and as5conslgn-
sments of several cars Aof. wet goods
reached it this week GainsborO is
just across the line in Saskatche~
wan.
In discussing the liquor running
situation, the. editor of the, Sher-
wood Tribune comments in this
weeks issue as follows:
'tAutoes by the dozen are still
bringing the joy--Iater across, not
withstanding a number of cars are
seized by the local customs officials
every week. An occasional capture
is made by state and federal officials
but the cooperation given by the
enforcement department is so slow
moving that little encouragement is
offered. ("

LAW
BOOSTS 4. C. [.

In an address delivered in Chi
cago on October 18th, Interstate
Commerce Commissioner Wooley
stated that six months OF private
ownership of the railroads mas cost
the taxpayers of the country more
than two-thirds as much as the two
wears and two months of federal
control.
Congressman Sinclair, working
against the iniquitous Esch-Cum
minis bill, predicted that the pas
sage OF this measure would compel
the farmers Of the nation to pay at
least $200,000,000 more a year for
carrying their products to market.
Prone recent figures it appears that
this was a conservative estimate az
the increase in freight rates has al
ready amounted to $1,5OO,0OO,0
It is easy enough to see why the
cost Of living cannot come down
while We have such laws as this.
The Director General Of the Rail-
roads declared that the return Of
the roads with a guaratny of 51A
per cent dividend on their aggrc-
gate value would mean cnai an 1n-
crease in freight Of one dollar would
be reflected in an increase of four
or five dollars in the price of the
article transported. Figure it out
for yourself. and see if this doesn t
hit every producer and consumer in
the United States.
Had there been enough Members
Of Congress of the caliber Of Mr..
Sinclair this gigantic steal could
never have gone through. Public
sentiment has already expressed it.

dent which might have been a SER
ious one, when the plane came
crashing to earth Thev started
from the field across the road south
of the auditorium. The distance
was so short from where they start
ed to the foot hills that they were
only about SO feet from the ground
when they reached the crest of the
hills. At that point the pilot un-
dertook to turn the plane south
and as he did the wind caught the
wing throwing the plane in a per-
pendicular position, not having suf"
ficient altitude he was unable to
right his machine. Turning in IL
half circle to the east it came crash
ing to the earth in nose dive. 1t
stood with the tail straight in the
clear over then fell back. striking
demolished hat wing and the pro-
;peller. and the running gear was
completely smashed uD. driving the
braces clear up into the body or
the machine. Outside Of few
scratches Mr.. Townley received
about the face and hands, no one
was hurt.
The plane, "a Curtis, :: with $50
horse power engine, costing sS,-
10000, sustained $4,000 damage.
and will have to be sent back to
Minneapolis for repairs. Mr. Town.
ley was taken to Kenmar- by Mr..
Fruh in his big car. The fall was
4 spectacular scene, watched by
many who held their breath in fear
for the two passengers. It was in
deed very fortunate accident.
