THE LoFTHUs RESIGNATION

In connection with the resignation
Ct o. E. Lofthus, state bank exam
iner, the day before Gov. Frazier quit
Office, the sworn testimony Of Mr..
Lofthus last winter is highly interest
ing. Mr.. Lofthus made an affidavit
to the state supreme court in the
Scandinavian Bank Case that Sisal
Trust Loan had been Gust at this hour
paid in full" It developed that what
actually happened was that Brinton
gave check drawn on a bank in
which he had no funds for the amount
with the understanding that it would
not be presented for payment until
such time as the money could be
raised.
When Mr.. Lofthus was on the
stand in the house investigation, he
was questioned about this false af-
fidavit. The question was asked him:
SIS it not fact that no payment was
made at the time that that report
was put in, and as you represented
to the Supreme Court Tin an affidav-
it) :" For a long time Mr.. Lofthus
sat silent on the witness chair. Fin
ally. the attorney questioning him
said, "Do you want to answer that,
or don't you, or would you prefer the
advice Of counsel?" Lofthus replied,
"I refuse to answer that" Question:
Why, because you think it might in
criminate you. Is that the idea, that
you might be charged with making
a false statement. Lofthus then an
swered, "Yes, sir. J" At a later time
Lofthus stated that his attorney had
assured him that it would not incrim.
mate him, but he would not answer
just the same.
This is but one Of the many SAMPLES
of evidence to show the calibre of the
man Frazier appointed as state bank
examiner, and reappointed after he
had given the above testimony. The
law permits the removal of a bank
examiner for cause. It is safe to as
sumo that Lofthus resigned the day
before Nestos took Office because he
was satisfied there was sufficient
cause" for his removal. 4.

MAIL AND TRAIN
SERVICE ROTTEN

People of Linton and community
have suffered much in years gone by
because of rotten mail and train SER
vice, but we have evidently been liv-
ing under glorious conditions until
last Friday. At least, no more thor
ough mess could be imagined than
our present mail and train conditions.
The Milwaukee has taken off it's pas
senger train entirely, and our only
service to Aberdeen is daily Mixed
train affair. That is bad enough, but
the hours of service are made as i'm
possible as can we'll be imagined.
The Milwaukee mixed train, under
the new schedule, leaves Linton at z
o'clock in the morning. It gets to
Linton at its own sweet will in the
afternoon. On the other hand, the
N. P. gets into Linton any old time
after six o'clock. The result is COM
rlete dcmoralization in postal SER
vice. Mail from the north must be
sorted late at night in order to be
forwarded on the Milwaukee's seven
o'clock monstrosity. The post office
force must be at work about 6 a. m.
in order to make the south train, and
they can't possibly finish their work
before 8 the night before. For long
time it has taken Linton people two
days to make train trip to Bis
marck. The N. P. Just misses the
morning train at Mckenzie. Now,
one must leave Linton at 2 a. m. in
order to reach Aberdeen that night.
The Record has been attempting
to find some means of arranging its
publication date so as to insure get
ting the south mail out on Thursday.
There is. every indication that we
will have to go to press some time
Wednesday afternoon in order to do
that. And the late hours Wednesday
are the most valuable to US in getting
the news up to date.
If there is any one instance in
which the PEOPLE of this community
are being treated to a policy Of the
"public be damned" it is in this lat
eat move, of the Milwaukee. ,s@,

SALE OF FREE PRESS RUMoREI

Reports from men who claim to
know are to the erect that a deal
is pending for the sale and reorgan-
ization Of the Free Press. The same
report has it that certain local poll
iticians are interested in the deal, and
that the PAPER may possibly be NOV
ed back to Hazelton. Under the pres
ent ownership, the paper has gone
several thousand dollars in the hole,
and its future is none too bright.
If the reported deaf materializes, it
will then be owned by gentlemen who
are making plenty of easy money and
who can afford to spend considerable
for the satisfaction of going after
the Records scalp.

TRAMP PREACHER PLAYS OUT

I The tramp preacher appears to
have done his last preaching" local
ly last Sunday night. Friday he plac-
ed big sign down town announcing
that on Sunday night he would deliv-
er a special lecture on Editors
The sign, created quite q stir and a
large crowd Of curious were on hand
to hear somebody get roasted. How
ever, the alleged evangelist informed
his audience that he had successfully
fooled "the Devil" and that he wasn't
going to talk about the editors at all.
He then started one Of his usual ram
bles. Before he had gone very far,
one of the local teachers demanded
that he cut out his rough stuff as it
was demoralizing the youngsters OF
school age. The Imitation of Billy
Sunday then started to turn loose
his guns Of oratory on the teacher in
question. That brought a snappy dis
play Of scrap from a young man in
the crowd. In the midst Of the COM
motion, the preacher engaged in pray
Ter. At the conclusion Of his prayer,
he started on his regular talk and
soon brought howl from bunch of
the audience which nearly reached
the stage Of a riot. Since that time
the preacher has done no more
preaching.

COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES
Among the things emphasized at
the State Teachers Association was
the responsibility of the teacher. Ev-
cry teacher is a cog in the wheels Of
progress. We don't need any weak
cogs, SO do your best to make your
self good teacher. If you stop try
ing when you. get your certificate you
might as well quit sooner or later,
your place will be taken by someone
who can make good. Show the school
patrons that you are actually earning
your money. 4
As far as we know there is no
school in the county likely to be
closed through lack of funds. Every
school is now running except one or
two that had too small an attendance
and arrangements could be made else
where to take care of the children.
During the war and since the work
of this office has been doubled. Ev-
cry drive of any kind is carried out
through the schools and when mater
ials must be sent out to more than
one hundred and seventy teachers it
requires considerable extra effort. !,
Gladys Monson, Walter Woods and
Sylvia O'Donald have enrolled in the
State Teachers Association. As soon,
as we receive receipts from the state
secretary we will send them to those
enrolled. Each one will also receive
the state magazine, the Associated
Teachers.
The supplies for the Junior Red
Cross are here. All that is required
is that you send in fifty cents for one
subscription to the Junior Red Cross
News. All who wish to enroll their
schools can do 50 by writing US.
Sand Creek No. 2, Burr Oak No. 2
and Cherry Grove No. 2 have enrolled
lately.
The following teachers have sent in
the following amounts this week for
the North Dakota Children's Home
building fund: Theresia Grunefelder,
$3.50; Lucille Pearsans, $50; Emma
Barth, $1.O0; velma Ford. sos; Mrs.
Myrtle Earlywine, $.75; Mabel Tracy,

John O'Donald, $2.05; Harry Collins,

This is worthy cause as is the Xmas
Seal campaign Of the Tuberculosis
Association.
We are still short Of Pupils Read
ing Circle supplies. When we will
get, them we do not know, but as soon
as we do we will send them out.
Several have asked il the school
gets anything to show that they have
contributed to the Children's Home.
Yes, they have informed us that each
school that contributes will get some
kind Of momento. Il

Dempsey, Shows
Dazzling Speed
Returns to Boxing Again
And Puts in Stre1u-
GUS Day.
By RAY PEARSON.

ATLANTIC CITY. June 16.-Jack
Dempsey showed something this af-
ternoon, a something that would
have been a shock to the many peo-
pie who harbor the impression that
Georges Carpenter is going to step
out in the Jersey City ring on July
2 and hurry the worlds champion
at such a dazzling speed that he
will land winner in twelve rounds.
the limit of the contest. Ever since
coming to this effete east We have
heard the speed argument. all of
which has heavily favored the man
from France. These fellows who
are sweet on the chances of Georges
figure he can travel at such a pace
that Jack won't be able to catch
him in twelve rounds and in figuring
that they throw Dempsey's punch
ing power into the discard.
We saw a Dempsey today who as
he returned to boxing for the final
strenuous stretch of training, opened
up speed that was a revelation to
some 500 fans who coughed a
smacker to visit Airport. No.
brother, after watching this step
ping today don't bet the bankroll
that the dimpled Georges is going
to work the dogs at a pace too fast
for Jack to keep up. Or. for that
matter. his fists in addition to the
aforesaid dogs.
Champ shows Speed.
For the first boxing he had in
many days Dempsey donned the
headgear and tackled a couple of
light speed merchants. these being
| Irish Patsy Cline of New York. who
notched abaut $50 pounds, and Babe
Herman OF California, who is a
| featherweight Cline was fast
enough, but Dempsey out-traveled
him and a couple of times in the
! two-round session Jack slammed
nasty punches to the chin, although
he was making no effort to wallop
and Cline was forced to hug for
recovery.
But il was Herman who made II
possible for the champion to dis
play his real speed. Babe had his
Instructions and moved like a Man
o'War but Dempsey was right there
with him. In and out in shifting
Dempsey hit II up" and II is hard
to see where the man has been made
who could get away from him. Well
say right now that II simply can't
be done. which may be news for
| Manhasset.
! Everything that Jack Dempsey
did today smacked of speed. He
thought fast and acted fast When
he got up this morning he was full
OF pep and shot pillow at the
sleeping Mike Trant's head
There was one thing that could
not be overlooked by the alert gents
at the ringside this afternoon too,
and that was that not for one in
slant of the half hour that Dempsey
was inside the ropes on the sun
baked canvas did he rest Loaded
with energy and knowing that from
| this time on play is at an end. the
| champion buckled into the grind
with a will
He resembled the fellow we saw
getting ready to knock over Jess
| willard two years ago. II he was
any better then than he is today We
miss on our guess He boxed four
rounds in all. Then the sparrins
partners entertained the gang with
another four rounds, Herman and
Cline boxing two and Jack Renaul,
and Battling Ghee clouting for an
| other two.
