mated good sound men and that re-
moves an uncertain element"

some years. With the wage and rate

should get to going good. There is a
shortage of railroad equipment but we
will have to make the best of it,"
Every man. woman and child must
help and must believe in the United
States, if we are not to go to pieces.
We all must help save on railroad
equipment and we all must save on
coal. because it is going to be close
fit this winter,
"The interstate commerce commits
sion is fully advised of both the rail
road and coal conditions and am sure
that relief and improvement will come
very soon."

N 'D0NNELL NOT

Held Disqualified Because He

The eligibility of c. w. Mcdonnell,
If Kensal, state representative from
Wells county. to the board of railroad
commissioners. for which he was nom
mated as Nonpartisan league candi-
late in the primary. is being ques-
Toned at the state house here.
Mr.. Mcdonnell introduced a bill in
he house of representatives increas-
ing the salaries of the members of
the railroad commission. to which he
lspires, from $4,000 to $4,000 per year.
The bill was introduced at the special
session and was approved Dec. 10,
1919. His term Of office began in
1919, after the 1918 election and ex-
pires the first Monday in January,
1921.
section 80 of the state constitution
says:
"No member of the legislative as
sembly shall, during the term for
which he was elected, be appointed
or elected to any civil Office in this
state, which shall have been created.
.,r the emoluments Of which shall have
been increased, during the term for
which he was elected. nor shall any
member receive any civil appointment
from the governor, or governor and
senate. during the term for which he
shall have been elected
This provision, in the opinion of
many, clearly bars Mcdonnell from
1 pace on the railroad commission,
as if elected he would be elected to the
position during the term of office as
legislature in which he aided in in
creasing the salary of the office which
he seeks. 3D..

{ Burleigh county will have a big corn
crop, according to present indications.
says a bulletin issued by the county

noticed the corn come back to it's own
after handicap Of a slow cold start
this spring? 1t bids fair to be the
big crop of Burleigh county again this
wear. AS shown by the applications
to the $40 acre Corn Contest" there
is twice as large an acreage in corn
this year as compared with 1919. Bur.
leigh county is logically part of the
corn belt. More and more corn will
raise Burleigh county land.
Grasshoppers Increasing
"The grasshoppers have increased
during the latter hot days and are get
ting quite general over Burleigh
county. Almost every community is
being infested more or less. They are
most destructive. however, on the
southern border of the county as we'll
as in spots on the northern border.
Practically every community has poi
son material on hand and the control
campaign is carried on in most sys-
tematic way under the supervision of
the County auditor and County agents.
Burleigh county is most fortunate in
having arsenic on hand left over from
last wear. Arsenic can hardly be Sc
cured at any price now and the county
auditor has received orders from
other counties of the state where It
was thought grassheppers would not
appear this year and consequently the
material was disposed Of" ...-.
"Townships that have not yet or.
Gered material. or where no hoppers
seem to appear. should be on the look
out for an invasion and be ready for
prompt action later.
MANY New SiIos

in Burleigh county this year. This
viii double the number of silos in the
county in one year. Not so bad. Many
of these are pit silOs."
