SPECTATORS
FORCED TOPAZ
Kositzky Says Collections
Are Good For University
and School Land Fund.

Bismarck. N. D.. July 1z.-More
than $3.50 has been collected by the
board of university school lands in
contract payments and interest due
from n~on-residents and residents of
the state holding school lands for
speculative purposes, since a CAM
paign to collect the money due open
ed several weeks ago., according to
Carl R. Kositzky, land commissioner.
W. have received letters from per-
SOM living in all parts of the country
who own North Dakota school lands"
said Mr.. Kositzky. Some of them said
they had received no notice Of the
payments being due and therefore
had not paid them.
I'm all the replies received to our
letters, only n person, a resident of
the state, is willing to forfeit his
land he continued. All seem to have
faith in the future of North Dakota
land"
Because of the success in collecting
interest due from non-residents, the
board Of university and school lands
has authorized the land commissioner
to insist on payment of interest and
principal on land sale contracts and
farm loans before October /, this
year. Collection will be enforced
where the delinquencies have been
such as to endanger the interest OF the
school systems in the lands, according
to the commissioner.
Sales Total sac, 900, 0oo.
Land sales in North Dakota have
amounted to a total of $~2o.511.8o6.
The funds derived are invested princi-
pally in public corporation bonds, the
board holding about $4,000 of
bonds and farm loans. which amount
to about $1,000, 900. Under the grant
made by the government the interest
derived from the proceeds Of these
Investments and land rents is appor-
toned among the schools of the state.
The state is required to keep the
principal gift inviolate, 20 that if the
state fails to collect the interest and
principal payments the taxpayers
must make up the deficit, 1t is stated
by the commissioner. In the past the
interest derived from the investments
has amounted to such a considerable
sum that. many school districts have
not found it necessary to levy taxes.
Delinquencies have increased In the
last few years until 1t is estimated the
total amount has reached $1,000, 900.
With a good o in prospect the
board believes it will be able to col
lect several hundred thousands of
dollars. without hardship to those who
have borrowed from the school lands
funds. &

they say that it was like an explos-

was enmashed in flames. It is un.

had been placed in the upper part

BANDITS INVADE
ARKANSAS TOWN
TWO KILLED AND OTHERS ARE
WOUNDED IN BATTLE-ROB-
BERs SELECTED THE WRONG
TOWN AND RAN INTO PITCH
ED FIGHT WITH CITIZENS.

Eureka Springs, Ark, Sept. 2S.-
! Five bandits heavily armed rode into
this mountain town in two automo-
biles at II o'clock this morning to
rob the First National bank. Tonight
the bodies of two of them are IN
an undertaker's establishment, one
bandit is so badly wounded his death
IS momentarily expected, and two
other members Of the gang, with
less severe wounds, are in the
guarded Jail, as the result of battle
between the bandits and citizens of
Eureka Springs.
The dead robbers have been iden'
titled as Sid Wilson, 40, and George
Price, 40, both of Crookstown, Okla.
Charles Price, brother Of George
Price, is the man not expected to
live and Mark Hendricks, As, Park
Hill, Okla, and Sam Cowan, driver
of one of the bandits automobiles,
/ are the men in Jail. Cowan is believed
70 be a resident of Joplin, Mo. Char
les Price was operated on tonight.
On entering the town the men
drove directly to the bank. They
made the usual commands, which
were obeyed by the bank employees.
The robbers looted the bank vaults
securing $4,000 in bonds and $685.
900 in cash, which they placed IN
sacks. While they were at their work
E. G. Smith, cashier of the bank,
stepped on a button which sounded
an alarm simultaneously in five
business hpuses.
The citizens were ready when the
.uintet emerged from the bank with
heir sacks of loot. From places of
vantage gunfire was directed at the
robbers, who returned the hail OF
lead.
Due to the fact that the town is
built on a mountainside, the streets
are not on a level, steps leading
down from one street to another.
The citizens took advantage of this
and occupied positions on street on
higher level than the bank, firing
downward at the bandits.
