.cept feed for the horses. The meet
ing was called to order at about

argument until nearly. six. Some
Of the farmers present were sure
that the present crop In Burke coun-
ty was good enough so threshing
could be done for II cents per BUSH
el but some OF the threshers had
figures to prove that II could not
be done at a profit unfess 20 cents
or more was charged. "A comprom-
ise was finally made and price OF

they have done in the past. Mr..
Dewing was elected to the Office OF
county commissions Of his district
by q big majority last fall, and was
the choice Of a ma jority Of the peo-
pie OF his district, but because he
was elected by the farmers, his cleo
ton was contested by the bankers,
and an i. v. IA. court ruled that he
was not legally elected. This case
is now in the supreme court. Mr..
Marks is a prosperous farmer Of
near Woburn, where he, has resid-
ed something like 90 years, during
all of !. which time he spent much
time in an endeavor to better the
condition Of the farmers OF the
country, and he wSs especially ac-
tive during the past few years. He
was abused numerically during the
past few months by the bankers
through the newspapers that they.
controlled, but this only caused him
to work all the harder for the cause

and Mr.. Marks are men of good

FAkE COLLECTION
SCHEME EXPOSED

WfllfstOn, N. D., Aug. IA new
fake collection scheme has been ex-
posed in Williams county. Letters
have been sent out Uy the states at-
torney and the county treasurer to
all school and ownship boards
warning them against signing con-
tracts with one, William Clifford,
providing for paying him . commits
sion Of 25 per cent of penalties and
interest he may collect for them
from Williams county out Of PEN
atty and interest money due them,
and accumulated sfnce 1911.
Old UnemfOrced Law Utflixed
The William Clifford referred to,
has taken advantage OF the fact that
in 1911 the state legislature passed
an amendment to the law govern
ing the collection OF tax penalties
and interest by counties. which spe-
cifies that the penalty and interest
ON delinquent taxes shall be appor-
toned and paid back to all subdi-
visions OF the county. Clifford mas
been signing up several township
boards on a contract with him to
board on a contract with MIN to
collect accumulated penalty and in
terest due subdivisions from the
county, and to pay him a commis-
sion OF 25 per cent.
County officials state that prob
ably no county in the state mas ever
complied with the requirements OF
the amendment. and that it is mere
" a proposition of taking money
out of one pocket and putting It
into another" and paying dearly
for the process in clerical labor,
!, time and red tape.
County Position Explained
The letter sent out to Williams
county subdivisions explains the
county's use of penalty and interest
money and it's position regarding
the amendment, as roll0ws:
THE county has been using this
penalty and interest fund for a re-
vOlving fund to take care of school
and county warrants and transfer
to other funds as Is needed. WITH
out this fund the county would have
ito make a larger levy which means
more taxes to the taxpayer and we
know it is better !. for township,
school and county, one and all not
to make distribution as it would be
taking money from the county and
giving 1t to the township and school
and village and the taxpayer would
in turn pay the same amount back
to the county in taxes. 1t would
take several thousand dOllars in ex-
ira help to make the distribution
which would be, a total loss

Az 4 meeting Of the special board
consisting of County Commissioners
a. 3. Hauge, county Auditor G. II
Koprfva and County Judge ] =.
Finke, held according To law last
Satnr(ay afternoon FOR the purpose
of appointine two new county CONF
misa) )oners to take tho place Of John
10. Hrubb and Fl. "a. KirkeIie, who
were removed from Office for cause
by Governor Frazier last week,
Jake Dewing OF near Portal was
appointed for the third district, and
b. Marks of near Woburn was
appointed for the first district.
During the afternoon the new board
met at the court house and organ
lied. b. Marks was elected
chairman Unless something spe-
cial comes up the board will not
meet again until Sept s, as all
members were In the midst Of har-
vesting and threshing, and could not
very well get away from home.
We believe that the appointments
will meet with the approval Of e
BID majority OF the farmers of the
county. and that they are anysnlnE
but satisfactory to the bankers, who
whife the new men serve, will not
be able to do pretty mucn as they
please with the county funds as

.charred body OF Wfiiiam MOrchardt,
rs, was found in the smoking ruins
OF the dwelling on the Charles Of
fet farm. on which Mr.. and Mrs.
Ad0lph Jauss with whom the dead
man had made his home, are ten
ants. Shortly after Mr.. and Mrs.
Jauss had gone to town, while Mr.
Borchardt, who was very feeble, re-
mained at home alone, neighbors
observed the house in flames and
hurried tost the scene, but the walls
OF the house had fallen in when
they arrived. A search soon result
ed in the discovery OF the body. No
stoves contained FIRE. and it is pre-
;sumed the fire started from embers
from the dead mans pipe. He was
found between his bed and win
dow. with q large dipper by his
side. He had apparently attempt
ed to put out the fire, and failing,
had vainly tried to escape from the
burning building.
