Jury Disagrees In:
Case Of;Bootlegiger

Minot, N. d., Nov. h8.-The jury in,
the case of Lewis Barton, charged
with illegal transportation of liquor,
disagreed and were dismissed by
Judge Geo. H. Moellring late Satur-
day evening, after they had been out
over 10 hours. States Attorney O. B.
Herigstad says the case will likely be
at the next term of district
court in December.
The case of, the State of North Da-
kota versus C. 8. Shank, charged with
illegal transportation of liquor has
gone to the jury. -.
In both cases an interesting con
stitutional question has been brought
up by the defense, which alleges that
at the time the officers searched this
automobiles of the two defendants
they had no search warrants, and that
It was therefore an illegal search.
Judge Moellring overruled the argu-
ment in the case against Barton. In
the Shank case the defense brought
out an additional feature, in that the
officers who seized the car were spec
ial investigators and not peace officers.
o. c. Redlin and F. c.. Upton were
the officers who made the arrest in
the Shank case.

Quick Work Saves
Life OF Electrician
In Path OF Current

Minot, N. D., Nov. S.-Only the
quick action and forethought of men
who saw the accident saved the life
of o Havelena, %, last Saturday
afternoon when a guy wire which he
was hauling up a pole came in con-
tact with a transmission wire carry
ing $4,000 volts of electricity, which
feeds towns and villages to the west
of Minot-
Havelena, who is in the employ OF
the Northern State Power Co.,, was
working on top of a pole east of the
power plant, and hauling the guy wire
up the pole to fasten 1t at the top.
1t became caught on some obstacle,
and he gave it a yank. The top end
swung against the. high power line.
and $4,000 volts Of electricity shot
through the mans body, burning his
right hand and right side severely.
He had one foot against a conduit on
the pole, and this is believed to have
made the charge stronger, affording
a better ground, than the wooden pole
would have done.
G. E. Balch, superintendent for the
company. and Henry Slocum, foreman,
were underneath the pole. and saw
the accident. They rushed into the
power house and turned off the power
which had been travelling through
the mans body for about Is seconds,
it is said. II
Havelena a taken down at once
and medical assistance applied. He
is now in St. Joseph's hospital. and is
said to be resting quite easily today,
although the burns are still painful.

Jealousy Thought to BE Motive.
Jealousy is thought to have been
the motive for the killing Of the girl,
as two letters were found in Kalil,s
trousers pocket written ito MISS, Story
by another young man of the ,coinmu-
nifty. The letters are said to be in
the nature of love letters. The moth

cred sufficiently to sand the ordeal,

that%expense money for the men has
not been ;recetyed-yets for the months
OF Sept, and Oct, although their wages
have been paid.
4 It is said that there was about $15,-

GERMANY WANTS
GOLD CREDITS,
,DR. HUGO SAYS
$780, oo,o 900 Would Elk
tinguish Paper Flood,
Is Claim
(By The Associated Press.)

.. My L ne ASSOCldleO i>TeSS.J aes .
Bremen, NOV. g. - Two hundred
million dollars would suffice to ex,
tinguish Germany's paper flood" said
DR.. Otto Hugo, leader Of the German
V~o1kspartei. during an address here
today on the German economic and
political situation.
Dr.. Hugo estimated $4,000, 0o0,0 900
marks were floating about the world
at large and he predicted the loss of
the Westphalian industrial section UNI
less Germany were given a breath
ing SPELL in the shape OF gold credits
abroad to enable her to meet the
r~eparations payments due next
January.
He estimated hat the value of Ger
man property sequestration abroad
amounted to twenty times the amount
of Germany's excess paper currency
and that therefore, one-twentieth of
this last remnant Of Germany's
tangible credits, If converted into gold.
would suffice to wipe out her paper
marks.
/ DR.. Hugo complained that the
armies of occupation in the Rhineland
were costing the nation more than
did the imperial army and navy in
time of peace.

Figures Do Not Tally.
The debate revealed strong conlic
between the government figures or
budgets and deficits and the indie
pendent estimates compiled by DR.
Karl Helferrich, former secretary o.
the imperial treasury, who declared
that the spectacle of the food minister
running the finance ministry as a side

GREAT NUMBER OF
C~ANTALOUPES RAISED
IN IMPERIAL VALLEY

sas Francisco, Nov. s.-More than
1~53,00O,0Q0 cantaloupes-enough to
furnish every resident of the United
States for a melon and a half for
breakfast-were raised in the I'M
perial Valley Of southern California
this year. according to the Pacifi.
Fruit Express company.
Land on which the melons were
raised not SO many years g was q
desert. Now more than 400 miles of
irrigation canals carry water from the
Colorado river to Imperial Valley
farms. The valley is located not far
from the lowest land depression in the
world.
In all, 1900 carloads of can
taloupes were shipped from Imperial
valley points this year to Pacific coast
and eastern markets. All went out In
refrigerator cars, big ice manufac-
turing plants being operated at Braw-
ley n Ell Centre, valley points to
stock the cars.
An. attempt is to be made this win
ter in the Imperial Valley to produce
Christmas melons, the valley fourteen
years g having sent out the first
melons ever produced in the country
in the holiday season outside Of a hot
house..
The first Christmas melons were
raised during a frostless winter and
predictions have been made that the
.1921-22 winter will be .frostless. Act
ing on the predictions many farmers
have planted winter melons, hoping to
realize. a golden harvest.
TEsTING ROPES.
Washington. Nov. 9.-How strong
is a rope? Tests made at the Bureau
of Standards here have resulted in
answering the question with a
formula.
For three-strang regular manila
rope from one-half to four and one-
half inches in diameter, the following
computation, experts at the bureau
state, will give the breaking load of
%the-rope: t,
The average breaking load in
pounds equals 5000 multiplied by the
diameter of the rope in inches, multi
piled by the 5dicmeter of the rope in
creased by one.
This. the experts add. will give the
average maximum, weight that the
rope will hold but the working. load
or the load that a contractor or safe
hauler may apply with proper safety
and precaution would be considerably
less than the load given by the for-
mula. @sS

Reductions
Are Asked

Washington, Nov. 8.-Holding that
the reduction in livestock rates recent
ly ordered by the interstate commerce
commission left the heart of the live
stock producing region almost wholly
unaffected, the American Farm Blu
reau Federation through its counsel,
Clifford Tllorne Of Chicago, today
asked the commission to extend ,the
reduction to short hauls. The reduc-
tons recently ordered amount to 20
per cent on hauls where the rates ex-
coed so cents.
THAT reduction has no significance
to Illinois or Iowa" Mr.. Thorne ar
gued. TT has very little significance
to Kansas and Nebraska. Here you
have the great heart Of the livestock
industry almost wholly unaffected by
the reduction. Our appeal to the
commission and to the railroads has
not been for relief just on the fringe
of our territory. The plea of organ
lied agriculture comes from the entire
agricultural section and not from the
edge of it."
Further Reduction Opposed.
Extension of the reduction was OPP
posed by the carriers through Ken
