Governor, Visits Minot

Governor, Visits Minot
3. F. Baker, the defeated nonpar-
tisan candidate for Governor, visited
Minot Monday enroute from a visit
at Bismarck and Fargo in the inter.
ests of the League. The League
will hold state convention in Bis.
marck Saturday to map out it's cam.
paign for Frazier, for the U. S. SEN
ate, realizing that the Democrats and
Anti-Leaguers will make desperate
attempt to elect J. F. T. O'Connor
Of Grand Forks, the democratic nomi-
nee to oppose Frazier.
O'Connor himself, is quite Optimis-
tic over his chance for election.
The. League is apprehensive over
the probability that an attempt will
be made to defeat Olsness for In
surance Commissioner, Poindexter for
auditor and the league nominees for
the railway commission with the DEM
ocratic nominees for those offices
and this will undoubtedly be consider
ed at Saturdays convention.
II have nothing to regret over the
campaign which l have just gone
through" Senator Baker stated. Il
had an opportunity to visit many in
teresting places in our great state and
to meet thousands Of fine people. l
will still retain my seat in the Senate
for two more years and feel that !
will be in better position to serve
the people by reason Of the expert
ence I have had during this cam
paign. l feel particularly proud over
the fact that $4,000 some people in
North Dakota had enough confidence
in me and what stand for, to cast
their ballots for me for Governor.
AS far as my defeat is concerned,
the members of the league have only
themselves to blame. l estimate that
fully 10000 league members did not
vote because of lack of interest in
the campaign. The |. V. AS con-
Quoted quiet campaign, sent out few
speakers in the field, and had they
done otherwise many of these league
voters would have been stirred out to
vote"

North Minot Must Garry It's Share C
Burden of Minot Schools

The legal battle between the Miro'
board of education, and the Taxpayers
of North Minot, was concluded VIII
the decision of the state supreme
court in which the city schools emerge
victors. The court holds that NJ rlI
Nlinot cannot legally refuse to assis;
III carrying tho burden OF the M1no'
public schools. It is set forth that an
Incorporated city is school districs
in itself and when it legally extends
it's limits the added property become
a part of the school district. fhc
action was entitled Harrison Schoo
District No. against the city OF Mi
not, et~ al.
The school district has refused t.
pay the school taxes up to the pres
ent time, asserting that the defendants
had no right to exercise jurisdiction
over the territory known as NORTH
Minot, for school purposes, or to levy
taxes upon the property in the terri
tory for such purposes.
The practical effect Of the suprem-
courts decision, is to bring that terr.-
tory under the city's jurisdiction FOL
school taxation purposes. At the TIM
when the city tried to extend il.
school district to take in this teiri'
tory, North Minot sought restraint al
the hands of the law.
"When an incorporated city alone /.
organized as special school district.
says the decision of the court, "the
boundaries of the special school dis
trict constantly remain the same d
the boundaries of the city and in IL
event can the territory embraced WITH
in the special school district be less
than the territory within the 'corpol
ate limits Of the city, The court
then follows with it's decision that !.

Community Exhibits Feature For
Ward County Fair

Ward County Fair
Community exhibits are to be made
a prominent feature of the coming
big Ward county fair in September.
Substantial cash prizes are to be Of
fered for the best community displays
entered by enterprising villages,
towns or cities of northwestern North
Dakota. Five prizes have been ar
ranged, ranging from first to fifth
respectively as follows: $50, $40,
$50, $50 and $40. Thus a number
of communities may share in the hon
ors and rewards.
These community exhibits may con-
sist of anything produced by any one
of them. The list may include
grains, grasses, vegetables, flowers,
fruits and any products of the sol!
and also dairy products, cooked and
other home made articles, ornaments
and needlework and art work, in fact
anything produced in the community.
The exhibits will be scored according
to comprehensiveness Of display, neat
ness and attractiveness OF arrange
ment, etc.
Each community will be assigned a
booth of equal size in the Exhibition
building. Competent judges will in
spcct the arrays.
Already much interest is being
manifested in this feature of the fair.
Burlington made name for itself by
such a display at show in Minot a
couple of years ago and is expected to
be a strong contender for honors
again. this year. The enterprising
citizens around Makoti are also plan
ming an exhibit. Granville is an
other live wire center that discusses
display of the kind. Rumors are
heard from Berthold and Sawyer as
we'll as other places.
Specimens for the exhibits must be
selected and laid aside at once be-
fore the harvest becomes any further
advanced.
If the response to the community
exhibit plan proves hearty this year
it is expected the feature will be en-
larged and made both more import
ant and profitable at later fairs.

table, approving the form hereto
fore in use. The commission debate
for a time whether to make the tick
cts negotiable or merely assignable.
With this decision and with the
adoption Of standards for the inspec-
ton of grain the new grain depart
ment of the railroad commission, re-
placing the department under tbs
grain grading act which was located
at the state agricultural college, Is
now functioning. Grain testing APP
paratus has been moved to Bismarck

department at Fargo, has been nam
ed in actual charge of the grain test
ing.
The department will use the gov
eminent standards on wheat, oats,
and corn, according to Ole Lund, its
head. 1t will use standards on bar
ley, rye, flax seed, speltz and similar
grains not covered by federal require
ments, which were set by the Mlnne-
sofa railroad and warehouse commits
sion.
It is planned, according to Mr.. Lund,
to establish grades on potatoes be-
fore the potato marketing season BE-
gins. The department, he said, would
work with the Minnesota commission
in fixing grades.
The department of weights AID
measures is operating with three mvn

slble the use Of an adequate fore,
Mr.. Lund said.
The plan under which grain will be
inspected, it is explained in that if
either the farmer or elevator manager
disagree as to a grade, they may send
to the department what is considered
by both fair sample, and the de-
partment will grade the grain. The
departments word is held binding
upon both parties.

NELLIE STRUGGLES WITH HER
NEW PROBLEM
Chapter &C

Chapter G6
The maid brought Nellie tea and
toast, also a message from Donald
Horne hoping her headache would
soon pass away. Later he sent her
box OF roses, which she carelessly
thrust aside although he had been
willfully extrayagant in their pur-
chase.
All night she lay Wide-eyed, fac
ing her problem-the age-old prob
lem Of love; of a girl giving her
heart to one out of her station IN
life. She did not for a moment
think it might be returned. 1t was
q hopeless love, one that must be
hidden from its object, from the
world.
AZ times she felt a rush OF JOY
that she loved; then anguish as

she looked i'll. Deep circles under
her eyes ana pale cheeks made hec
very unlike the blooming Nellie she
usually saw reflected there.
She seldom used rouge, but now
she dabbed bit on her cheeks

She felt she could not bear any

Jones, as well as Cora--whom she
saw every day-would surely notice

Miss Jones did notice, but wisely
said nothing, simply rcmarking
that Mr.. Fallon had sent word he

After this explanation she gave
Nellie work that kept her not only
busy. but hustling.
"She'll get over it if she doesn't
have time to think about him" She
reasoned. Il hope Donald Horne
will help. He's more than half IN
love with her noW-perhaps---" and
middle-aged Miss Jones amused
herself by visio.ing a romance that
ended when Nellie and Donald were
happily married.
Nellie lunched with Cora, ana in
reply to her questions told of Mr..
Fallon's accident.
"It must have frightened you
VIXEN they brought hilA in Cora
said.
1T did--terribly-and Miss Jones
too," Nellie admitted, then changed
the subject, fearing more questions.
She was keeping a close hold upon
herself. Sh would need to get her
feelings under control before Mr.
Fallon came back.
when Mr.. Fallon appeared the
next day, little paler than usual,
but otherwise appearing none the
worse for his accident, he said:
"They frightened you, Miss Riley,
bringing me in as they did. l am
sorry"
Il thought you--were dead" she
stammered.
I'm not so easy killed" he
smiled at her. "You tainted"
"Yes, just for a moment" Nellie
had not thought he would recall
her silly faint. "I never tainted be-
fore" she naiyely added, then
blushed because Of the implication
you look u bit done up yet. Are
you sure you are able to work"
"Oh, yes!" she returned eagerly
then in her old saucy manner:
"You haven't any red cheeks
either"
Mr.. Fallon, Jr, laughed gayly
yet as he turned away soft, ten
der look crossed his face, and more
than once that morning he stopped
to gaze at the profile of the girl as
she bent over her work-the girl
who had tainted because of him
her fear for him--perhaps.
But Nellie never once looked at
him. She was afraid he might read
her secret. it was so new--so new.
Her face, her eyes might tell him.

more especially for a special oc-
eason--Sunday or Thanksgiving.
Did you ever boil your potatoes
in the oven? 1t is q good plan to
get the water to boiling point on
top of the fire, then put the pota-
toes in and salt them and Put the
pan, covered, IN the oven. In this
way YOU can utilize all the heat Of
tho oven. The asparagus can be
cooked tender in the oven, too.
Naffles: -Four cups flour, one
teaspoon salt, one tablespoon SUI
gar, one tablespoon melted butter
milk to make a thick batter. Mix
thoroughly and add two well-beat-
en- eggs and two teaspoons of bak-
ing powder. Stir well and bake in
waffle irons.
Chicken en- Casserole: Chicken
can be cooked en- casserole in sew
eral different ways. 1t can be cut
up as for fricassee, cooked until
tender, floured, seasoned and
Drowned in the casserole. 1t can
also be taken from the bones when

mustard, half teaspoon of salt
and half u teaspoon OF paprlka.
