Farmers, cheer up.

notify him as he receives many calls
each week from men living in Minot
who are looking for work.
All solicitors for funds in the city
should be sent to the Association OF
Commerce rooms that their wants
may be investigated. The Commun.
ity Chest fund takes care Of most OF
the former subscriptions.
The North Dakota State Implement
Dealers are in annual session at Far
go this week. Among the Minot
dealers attending are L. F. Vollmer,
Geo. A. State, Marics Erickson, Claude
McCallister and Knut Frosaker.
Mrs. VIM. Wetlick has returned
from a months visit with relatives in
Luverne, Mimi, Sioux City and Hol-
stein, Iowa. She arrived home just
in time to save "Bill'', who has been
patching, from starving to death.
C. M. Christensen of Freedom town
ship motored to Minot, Monday. Chris
is feeding sixty head of stock this
winter, doing his work alone, but as
the stock has been running out prac-
tically every day this winter, he is
having snap.
Tom Mccartney, 7S, old time Wah-
peton character, was found dead in
his shack in that city. He had liv-
ed in Wahpeton for many years. Al
tho he had been cared for at county
expense, $3.50 were found in some old
clothes, presumably money he had
saved in order that he might have a
decent burial.
Supt. Doolittle of the Minot parks,
reports more visitors at the parks this
winter than at any previous time, due
to the balmy weather and excellent
roads we have enjoyed all winter. The
weather remains calm and the tenn
perature exceedingly moderate. We
have had scarcely a windy day all
winter, with but one or two snow
f1urries.
Mr.. and Mrs. E. E. Burdick from
near Douglas showed the proper spir-
it by driving a team of mules 25
miles to Minot Tuesday evening af-
ter six o'clock to attend the Farm
Bureau meeting Wednesday. The
night was balmy and moonlight and
the drive undoubtedly reminded E.
E. of his sparkling days some twenty
years ago. Mr.. Burdick is a prom
inent Guernsey breeder.
C. II. Finke and C.. l.. Stevenson
and their wives from Berthold met
with thrilling auto accident on the
Burlington hill while driving to Minot
recently. Their car skidded on the
icy hill and turned completely over.
The occupants were not injured and
only the top of the car was damaged.
Two cars just ahead Of them had
collided and they were compelled to
put on the brakes, hence the acci-
dent.

ical school as DR.. A. ID. MCDANIEL Of

cred one Of the best in the profes-

gage the Doctor as he would be ira
yelling from New York to San Fran
cisco enroute to Korea, next week, and

tributing $500 yearly toward the

ed head. At the Tuesday evenings

Council Bluffs, Iowa, arrived Satur-

back Jimmie Cosgrove, alias McNa.
mara, who had been paroled from q
reform school at Council Bluffs, and
whose bondsmen asked that he be sur

Cosgrove at first refused to accom-
pany the sheriff with extradition pap

that he could 60 without handouts

Ghs Crist Of tho
legislative Mill

Two movements for brief adjourn
nents have failed In the state legisli-
ture, although talk Of such q move Ia
still more o. less general In both
houses.
The first attempt was made by the
Independent faction, seeking recess
Of only two or three days. The next
move came shortly after, backed BY
the Nonpartisans, who wanted q week,
or the greater portion Of week, In
order to enable members Of the legis-
lature to attend the Equity convention
and Grain Growers show In Fargo.
This move, in turn, failed.
Although 80 measures, as enumsr-
ated elsewhere in these columns. have
been introduced, it Is quite apparent
that little has thus far been accom-
plished in either house. The two mat
ters Of most general interest and i'm
portance. and which have Consumed
by far the greatest part Of the time,
we're the senate trial Of the WOg-List
election contest, which has been set
tied in favor Of Gust Wog, and the
forthcoming report Of the Bishop
Brissman auditing company, which is
to file complete details on the audit Of
the state industries.
Because Of the even balance of
power between the two factions, 1t il
the belief of most close observers that
little of note will come to pass
throughout the session.
That tho tor,uS ~ ctato voil,o~A 4
commissioners be heightened from two
to six years IL the proposal Of men,
bers of the commission put before the
state legislature the latter part of the
week. when other matters were idling
along. Such plan would make for
much greater efficiency in this impor-
tant work, it is argued, and there 10
strong prospect that such 4 constitu-
tional amendment will he brought to
vote.
Argue Audit Report.
All blame for q misunderstandin
with regard to orders transmitted to
the audit company governing The sub
mission Of their report was taken by
State Auditor ID. C. Poindexter, who
said that the telegram he sent the
company was simply ambiguous in its
wording. 1t was taken by some that
he wished to compel them to submit
the three available copies Of their re-
port IL the state audit board. ignoring
the request Of the house TO have a
copy submitted direct to the speaker
for The consideration Of this body. Mr..
Poindexter declared that such was not
his intention.
Representative NJ, o. Grangaard Of
Barnes county introduced a resolution
providing for the" appointment Of a
special committee to consider the re-
port when it is submitted.
Committee Of Nine Named.
Pursuant to the Grangaard sres0lu-
ton. the following committee was
named by Speaker Twichell to conduct
the inquiry into the audit Of the state
