Minneapolis MayOralty Vote.

The unofficial vote for mayor at the
Minneapolis primaries was as follows:
VanLear, 1924; Leach, 41,02O; COL
we'll, 8,642; Maurcr, 5s1; Kestad, 283.
This means that the contest at the
election will be between VanLear, So
cialist, and Leach, republican. Van
Lear's majority is attributed to the
fact that much apathy was shown by
the anti-socialists-large numbers of
them who registered failed to cast
their votes. It is predicted that the re-
suit Of the election will be an alto
gether different story.

FEDERAL ROAD BILL
Measure Conforms to Minnesota State
Highway System, Which Was
Perhaps Used as Model.
Mr.. BabcOck is Pleased With Bill as
-. Submitted to Congress and
Expects Early Passage.

Minnesota's trunk highway law
and road improvement system was
perhaps taken as model for the new
federal highway bill just presented to
congress. At least the federal mea-
sure bears some of the earmarks of
the state law.
The bill appropriates $100,OOO,QO a
year for four years as federal aid to
state road projects, of which Mime
sofa would get $2,S40,000, and Mr..
Babcock expresses qualification at it's
indirect Endorsement of Minnesota's
plans. It embodies policies stated by
President Harding in his message and
bears the unanimous approval of the
state highway officials of the country.
1t provides that before any federal
aid projects are approved each state
highway department shall designate
not to exceed per cent of the total
roac9 aileage of the state Minnesota
has $4,000 mile total with about
$3.50 miles designated as trunk high
ways-and that all federal aid ap-
portionments shall be extended on the
roads so designated. Other require
ments, which Minnesota plans meet
with equal nicely, include the provi-
sions that not more than three-sev-
enths of the total mileage in the state
shall be classified as primary or inter-
state highways and the remainder as
secondary or inter-county roads, and
further, that not less than 60 per cent
of all federal aid allotted to any state
shall be expended upon the first-class
highways until arrangements are
made for the entire system.
The Minnesota provision for $780,
600 year for maintenance of trunk
highways and organization of the pa
troll service covering the entire 1000
mile system is another feature to
closely conform. The federal bilF
specifies that no projects shall be APP
proved until the state provides ade-
quate maintenance under the direct
control of the state highway depart
ment, and authorizes the secretary Of
agriculture, whenever necessary, to
have maintenance performed and the
cost charged to the state apportion-
ment; further disbursements to be
stopped until reimbursement is made.
State highway departments of the
48 states are giving united support to
President Harding's demand for con-
tinued federal cooperation with the
states in building highways, based up
on a system of roads interstate in
character and maintained with state
funds, just as provided under the
Babcock plan in Minnesota.
The bill is presented as not only
meeting existing conditions but also as
looking forward to make operative a
system both to market the crops and
to augment the transportation facili-
ties of interstate commerce and aid in
the national defense.

Big Community Meeting That Will be
Purely Social Affair Postponed
Until Later in Month.

The social community meeting
scheduled to be held in the armory on
Tuesday evening, May II, has been
postponed. It is expected this meet
ing will be held sometime in the latter
part of the month.
Next Tuesday evening the CONNER
cial club will meet with the reprcsen-
tatives of II farm bureau units to dis
cuss the subject. Of public scales in
Princeton. The farmers in the sur
rounding country are certainly inter-
ested in this proposition of public
scales and the business men in town
will of course wish to draw up some
plan that will be- satisfactory to all
concerned. A committee from the
Commercial club is Investigating the
matter in the neighboring towns and
an attempt is being made to ascertain
which is then s. satisfactory arrange
ment-a city scale or a scale owned
by stock company composed of the
farmers and the business men in town.
Princeton is the largest primary po-
tato market in the northwest. Rails
ing potatoes is one of our big indus
tries and it is certainly to the interest
of the whole town, as we'll as to all the
potato growers, 81 get this matter of
the public scales adjusted to the salts
faction of the majority of the pro-
ducers.
Each Of the following farm bureau
township units is asked to send
three delegates to the meeting with
the Commercial club Tuesday evening:
Dalbo, Wyanett, Spencer Brook, Bald
win, Blue Hill, Santiago, Glcndorado,
Princeton, Greenbush, Milo and Bogus
Brook. An invitation is also extended
to the president of each of the four
county Farm Bureau associations rep
resented-Mille Laos, Benton, Sher-
burne and Isanti.

How Did They Obtain the Trout?


Joe Mossman, Clair Smith and Mil
lard Howard returned on Sunday night
from the wilds of Wisconsin, where
for couple of days they whipped the
streams for trout and, as>luck would
have it, they succeeded in securing IS.
This is indeed remarkable, as neither
of the trio knows anything whatever
about scientific fishing. They attrib-
ute their success, however, to the stage
of hunger at which the trout had ar
rived when they reached the fishing
grounds, but, in our minds eye,' we
can see them slipping the Indians
sundry simoleons in exchange for the
fish. The locality where they fished is
infested with redmen.

used as an endowment fund for a
hospital to be built in Dillon. He
provided that the money was not to
be used until certain other conditions,
set forth in his will, had been COM
piled with. Until last year the plan
had not advanced, though interest on
the money had increased the fund
considerably.
Martin Barrett at that time made
the gift of $1,000 % for erecting and
equipping the buildings. The State
Bank of Dillon at that time donated
a beautiful tract, valued
at $4,000, formerly a brewery site,
on the southern outskirts of the city,
and Mrs. Margaret Roe, a sister of
Joseph Shineberger, donated enough
toward the original fund with its in
terest to increase it to $4,000.
Various societies, fraternal organi-
cations and clubs, together with resi-
dents of the city are preparing to fur
nish rooms in the institution.
The hospital will be built in unit
form and will be of handsome colo
NAL design, and embracing every
modern facility for surgical work. A
nurses residence is to be constructed
upon the grounds for the use of
on duty and those in training.
The grounds will be beautified by
trees, shrubbery and winding walks
and the place will be one of the most
beautiful in the city.

MERRILL RIDDICK
CALLED lair VAC
DRIFTS OVER THE COUNTRY IN
RICKETY PLANE AND MAKES
MONEY ON PASSENGERS
Army Airmen in Washington State
hat His Airship is Unsafe and
Try Without Success to Have Him
Arrested; "Makes More Money
Than L." Says Congressman.

Merrill X. Riddick, son of Repres-
entative Riddick, flew into Washing
ton the other day in a plane which
army airmen say is not safe, and
they tried without success to have
him arrested.
Commander Scanlon of Boiling
field, called on Major Harry Cess
ford, chief of police here, to arrest
the young man, but the major said
he had no jurisdiction over aviation.
Young Riddick had the valves ground
and after oiling up a day or two
started On another trip.
Representative Riddick admitted
that his son is a sort of "vagrant" so
far as the air is concerned. 4 few
days ago a letter came that had been
mailed in Texas. A day or two later
one came that was mailed in Mis-
souri,; it was soon followed by one
from Wisconsin. Then one day a
letter written on stationery of Hotel
Lorraine, Chicago, came, saying, "See
you in a few days" The letter had
scarcely been delivered when young
Riddick greeted his folks in person,
having flown from Chicago.
When he arrived Saturday, he
in a vacant lot near his home
on Dent place, staked down his ma
chine, left it in the are of a person
residing nearby and went home for
the night. Sunday the family drove
out by automobile. He invited his
mother to ride over to Boiling field,
four miles away.
ut was just like he invited her to
jump in the car and go to the other
side of town." said Representative
Riddick. Before l drove to Dupont
a few blocks away, he was

Young Riddick was among the
'irst boys in Montana to volunteer,
lis father said. He was soon made
iir instructor, due to his record.
He went to France and later en-
cred the air mail service.
He made 1t a point to pass over
low enough to see if the peo-
lie were interested. If they gather
ID in the street he took it that an
was strange and landed, ia
ting people at SIS a ride. If the
did not show any interest he
vent to the next town.
"And he makes more money than
do right now" his father said.

they found the body of Lieutenant
Grummond. There we're evidences
of a desperate struggle around his
body. From the appearance of his
body and that of his cavalrymen, it
appeared that he had ordered them
to try to break through the Sioux
after all the infantry had been killed,
and he, himself, had turned and
fought a nand-to-hand battle alone
against overwhelming numbers in
order to try to cover the retreat of
his men and give them a chance to
escape. He had killed several of the
enemy and had fallen fighting.
Behind a little pile of rocks, which
made a natural fertilization, were the
bodies of the two civilians, Wheatley
and Fisher, who had been armed
with new Henry rifles. By the side
of one fifty shells were counted, and
nearly as many by the side of the
other frontiersman. Wheatley's body
had no less than los arrows shot into
1.-THE Sioux and ~Cheyennes having
taken revenge on his body after he
had been killed because of the great
execution he had done with his rifle.
The Indian loss was very heavy, but
could not be determined exactly. 1t
was said to be upward of 200 killed.
