MUNICIPAL couRr

Judge w. M. Wright had another
busy afternoon Monday in disposing
of the numerous cases that came be-
fore him, among which were several
farmers who We're charged with sell
ing watered milk. The law has
seemed to have fallen upon the farmer
quite often of late. At recent ses-
sion of the municipal court several
Canadian farmers from the vicinity
of Troy received fines for not having
their vehicles properly lighted,
now many Of them are facing
court for having placed ice in their
milk.
The complaints which brought them
! into court were made by the state
|, board of health. It appeared in court
that at certain times during the past
summer samples of milk were taken
and sent to the state laboratory at
Burlington, which showed that there
was water in the milk and it also
showed that nearly every sample tested
higher than the required test, which is
81 per cent. This being the fact,
the court was very lenient with those
who came before him. It appeared
that the farmers instead of placing
their cans of milk in ice water to
cool had put the ice into the milk.
which in warm weather, with warm
milk must soon melt. The fines in
all cases were$50 and costs,$25 of the
fine in each case being RENTED. Had
the court been convinced that the par
ties had committed the act, to get more
for their product the full amount
would have been collected. While
many complaints have been reported,
only six of the parties appeared Mon
day. They were J. B. Marteli Of
North Troy, Earl Hammond of New
port, NJ. Archambault Of Newport, J..
A. Gagne Of Coventry, and Jerry
Guyette of Coventry. J. A. Basham,
represented by E. ]. Smith, pleaded
not guilty and jury trial will be had
later.
Other cases which had the attention
Of the court was George Pigeon, Jr.,
Of North Troy.
He pleaded guilty to breach of the
peace and paid a fine of $40 and costs.
Pigeon pleaded not guilty to another
like charge, and he was placed under
800 bail for a later trial.
Arthur Bolduc, 81 years of age, of
Rock Island pleaded guilty to boot
logging, but while the fine Of the court
was $500 and costs, $500 of the fine
was RENTED. It appeared he was
apprehended on Saturday at Derby
Line with five quarts of liquor on
his person. He was turned over to
Deputy Sheriff E. H. Cosby and
brought to Newport. In his case, an
other party got Bolduc to bring the
goods across the line, but the man
who had asked him to play his part
failed to show up at the appointed
time to relieve him of the lot, and
in his waiting for the mans appear
ance the wrong man appeared and he
was arrested.

Fire at Derby Line

Sunday night about IL o'clock Chief
Green received call from Derby Line
asking for assistance from the fire de-
partment. Chief Green, knowing that
the village of Derby Line was prac-
tically without water supply, lost no
time in responding to. the call, and
in company of few Newport firemen
with the combination fire truck went
to the scene, where it was discovered
that the residence of Ed Audinwood
was in danger of destruction. The To-
cation of the buildings was just right
for confagration like that of East
Charleston, and had it not been for
the fact that firefghters came from
every direction and literally covered
the burning building, such would have
been the case. The fire, when first
discovered by neighbors, was making
great Roadway from the basement on
the outside of the ell section of the
residence. Before any water could
be had it had made serious progress.
The village water was shut Off at
the time and some delay was ex-
perienced before it could be turned
on. Only small quantity Of water
was in the reservoir and would have
been exhausted in short order, had
the fire got beyond control. The peo-
pie Of Derby Line are very fortunate
that it was confined to the house, the
bulk of the damage being only in the
ell part, as the fire was kept from en-
tering the main section of the house
Fire companies from Stanstead, Rocl
Island, Derby Center and Newport
responded and did valued work in
heir assistance and the people of the
little village was very appreciative
FOR their services. Fireman from
Derby loaded their two chemica
Engines in trucks, and they sent Other
trucks, which were kept busy draw
ng water in cream cans to be use(
in recharging the chemical tanks.

pressed his hopes for the future
growth Of the parish. His departure
is greatly regretted by every one who
has the good fortune to enjoy his &C.

NEARLY 100000
STATE BONDS SOLD.

Bismarck, N. D.-Nearly $4,000 Oo0
of state bonds have been bought bv
people in North Dakota on july "a
the day set aside by Governor Lynn
j. Frazier for special bond selling
drive, according to the report of the
Bank Of North Dakota. This total is
increasing daily, the report saws. az
many North Dakotans are sending in
subscriptions.
Because Of the early harvest this
year many farmers and workers could
not be reached on the official bond
drive day and the members of the in
dustrial commission have decided to
extend the selling campaign. The fol-
lowing statement has just been issued
by the Bank Of North Dakota relative
to this matter: 4
The Banks Statement
TO Leaguers and Bond Boosters In
North Dakota and the Northwest:
"The bond sale in North Dakota on
Saturday July %, proved quite a sue
cess in spite of serious handicaps,
among which may be mentioned a
shortage Of cash among farmers and
too early ripening Of crops, owing to
the extremely hot weather, which
found nearly all farmers cutting grain
on North Dakota Bond Selling Day.
Reports are coming in rather slow
ly but if the present average of $7OO
per precinct is kept up, the total SUBJ
scribed in North Dakota will be close
to $4,000, 900 dollars-a splendid show
ing,in view Of backward financial con-
ditions.
"The North Dakota bond selling
campaign is still on, and we are ap-
pealing to those who were unable to
participate in the Bond Day drive, to
get out and do their part at the first
opportunity. Stick some bond appli-
cations in your pocket when you go to
town, or visit your neighbors, or go
out threshing, and get your friends to
sign up. Many of our boosters are do
ing that, and are meeting with sue
cess. ras
Same As United States Bonds
Remember these points: North Da-
kota bonds have been given the high
est rating (AAA) same as United
States bonds. Mill and Elevator bonds
bear 6 percent interest. payable Jan.
1st and July 1st each year. These
bonds are tax free in North Dakota
and exempt from federal taxes. Liber-
ty bonds will be taken in exchange for
North Dakota at the going market
price of Liberty Bonds.
Payment may be made by check,
draft or money order to The Bank Of
North Dakota, Bismarck, N. D.; The
Bank Of North Dakota, 839 Metropol-
itan Bank Bldg, Minneapolis, Mimi;
The Bank Of North Dakota, 1859 Peo-
Piles Ges Building, Chicago, Ill.
"The partial payment proposition is
still in force. On subscriptions Of 500
or over, investors are asked to pay
10 per cent down the balance on or
before Oct. %; or the balance may be
divided into three monthly payments
of 30 per cent each until paid. Smaller
subscriptions than 800 must be cash. "
