TREASURER
TO REFUSE CHECKS

The accepting OF checks from all
comers at the county treasurer's Of
fic4 during the past few weeks has
been causing Treasurer Jensen no
END of trouble. as q number OF them
have come back marked mo funds
and since then 1t has been found
that the makers OF several checks
never expected to have funds to
meet them at the time they gave
them to thes treasurer's Office. This
causes the treasurer's Office no end
of tinconvenience and extra work.
After it is found that the check Is
snO good the receipt must be cam
celled and the amount taken of
from the balance at the foot Of each
daily balance for one or two weeks.
After going to lot OF extra trouble
on several of such worthless checks
Treasurer Jensen has come TO the
conclusion that it was up to him to
be careful as to whose checks he
accepts in the future. He Is not
singing out any one or two banks
On which he will not accept checks
like his predecessor in Office did,
but will be satisfied with q check
on any bank providing there are
funds there to meet 1t when it is
presented for payment. Taxpayers
are therefore requested to make
their payments with either drafts OF
currency whenever possible, and only
use checks when absolutely neces-
sary.

FIRE ExT|NGU|sHER
USED As Still

Fargo, N. D.. Dec. 8.---A nickel
plated fire extinguisher is the "very
latest" device for use as a still, ac-
co-ding to members Of the sheriff g
office who yesterday seized two il1i-
Cit stills in the Ayr district and took
two persons into custody.
To the fire extinguisher was fast
ened a two gallon kerosene can by
a hooD and in the can was a perrecr
set Of coils. A brass spout was
sOldered about an inch from the
bottom of the can out of which the
-iouOr dripped into a bottle.
Because of the hanoies on the top
of the fire extinguisher, the still
could easily be handled.
Taken into CUSTODY were James
Kimble. a farmer, who had a gal
lon of rn"tured LIQUOR, and Ernest
Smith, laborer. who had 130 gal
Ions of mash. The still was owned
by Smith.
The defendants were brought to
Fargo and will be given their pre-
liminary examination this afternoon.

.DRUNkS NOW PAY
FINES IN BOWDELLS

The first arrests in Bowbells on
the charge Of being intoxicated in
public place for some years were
made on Thursday afternoon of last
week when warrants were issued
for five different residents OF the
city. All were taken in custody,
entered pleas of guilty IN Justice
Randall's court, where tney were
assessed fines Of $500 and costs,
amounting in all to some over
$1,000. This is only starter, ac-
cording to States Attorney n. A.
Hanson, who promises q similar
dose in every case when person
appears on the streets in an intoxi-
Gated condition The punishment
for a second offense will, OF course,
be more severe than that in the
first case. During the past eight
years or more Mr.. Hanson has done
his best to put an end to this whis-
key drinking business in public
places in Bowbells, and has at gil
times endeavored to get at the
source OF supply. Only once In
great while was he able to get the
fellow who brought the booze into
town. A bunch of fellows would
get tight, make monkeys Of them
selves, cause much suffering among
those dependent upon them, and
when subpoenaed to appear Derore
Mr.. Hanson after they sober up
they in every case have been refus-
ing to give evidence that would in
criminate the person who grought
the booze to town. 1t seems that
it has been >only within the past
week or two that Mr.. Hanson decid-
ed that the old way of putting an
end to the drinking business was
not getting him anywhere, as the
amount of whiskey consumed here
seemed to be greater each week as
time went on, so ne decided on a
new method. The cost OF getting
tight now will be considerably more
than in the past when the person
insists on appearing in public
place while in such condition. In
addition to the $500 per quart
which the booze costs. there must
be added agout $500 for fine and
costs for the first offense, nnu
much greater amount for subsequent
offenses. 1t is hoped that this sys-
tenn will have the desired effect, and
that whiskey will cause us no fur
ther trouble. especially in the city
OF Bowbells.
