new WITNESS IN
GUNNER TRIAL
Roy Murphy Will Be Called In
Barnes District Court

Fargo, jan 27--Roy Murphy, a
prisoner in the Cass county jail, will
be witness for the prosecution in
the trial Of William GUNNER, charg-
ed with numbering Miss Marie Wick.
! -Murphys name was noticed in the
district court Of Barnes county yes
terday, the prosecution being given
the privilege of calling him as wit
ness, the defense making no 0bjec-
tion.
The introduction of Murphy's name
into. the case sat this late hour as a
witness for the prosecution, has
aroused speculation concerning the
testimony he may be able to give.
Murphy was in the Jail during a
part of the time that GUNNER was
confined there, from the time he was
held for trial until he was taken to
Valley City. and during part of which
time Andy Brown, Gummer's room
mate, was also being held in the Jail
William c. Green, states attorney,
whose illness was responsible for the
delay in the trial until next Monday,
is improving, according to word re-
ceived from Valley City. Mrs. Green
went to Valley City last night and
will remain with him.
Physicians who attended Mr.. Green
feared the development of pneumonia
last Saturday evening, when they
were first called, but at this time he
is getting along satisfactorily, and the
danger Of such complication appar
emily has been averted.

every farmer who can furnish the

so, and leave the public aid for those

ASKING AID TO
AGRICULTURE
State Officials Dispatch Tele-
gram Asking that Emergency
Legislation Be Enacted
TO STABILIZE PRICES
Urge Also That Agriculture AS
Basic Industry Be Aided To
Aid Other Lines

North Dakota state officials headed
by Governor R. "A. Nestos today dis
patched telegram to President Hard
ing and Secretary Of Agriculture Wal
lace declaring the belief that emerg-
ency legislation is necessary to sta
bilize prices of the 1922 farm crop
Officials asked thoughtful consider
alton of various proposals made for
stabilizing prices Of farm products,
though not committing themselves TO
any particular plan and expressed the
belief that emergency legislation
should be supplemented by "such 9TH
er enactments, economically sound, as
shall tend to stabilize the prices OF
farm products and insure to the farm
ers improved and fair marketing con-
ditiOns for agricultural products to
the end that the producer may re-
ceive fair return for his labor and
investment"
The position is taken in the tele-
gram that agriculture is our basic
industry and that as long as it is in
a depressed state there can be no
permanent revival of business.
Text of Message
The telegram follows:
1T is conceded that agriculture is
our basic industry. The condition of
agriculture and the problems that
confront our farmers today are so
serious that if American business is to
become rehabilitated and the process
Of reconstruction hastened, emerg-
ency legislation must be enacted that
will insure q price for farm products
that will pay for the nineteen-twenty-
two crop the cost Of production plus
a reasonable profit. We most earn
estly invite your thoughtful consider
alton of various solutions proposed,
such as the revival of the United
States. Grain Corporation. the fixing
of q reasonable minimum price on
wheat, the creation Of a foreign mar
ket for the surplus wheat by the ex-
tension of additional credit for that
purpose to the countries needing our
wheat, or by a combination Of the
soundest elements of these suggested
remedies, with such others as may be
thought wise, and that you urge upon
congress the necessity OF supple
menting. such emergency legislation,
with such other enactments, econom-
ically sound, as shall tend to stabil-
ize the prices of farm products and
insure to the Farmers improved and
