GOV. A. NESTOS
OPENS CAMP AlGN
Reviews Accomplishments of Admin
istration in Address to Mclean
County Voters
STRONGLY ENDORSES O'CONNoR
Declares Frazier's Record Does Not
Entitle Him to Support

Governor r. A. Nestos opened his
campaign for reelection at Wilton,
Mclean county, where he spoke to a
large audience the evening Of Septem-
Der 9th. The governor called atten-
tion at the outset to some Of the
conditions he found confronting him
when he assumed his office, showing
among other things the large losses
resulting from the Nonpartisan ad-
ministration Of the various state en-
terprises, which in the case Of the
Home Builders association will prob
ably total $311 900 on the fifty-three
houses built, and the favoritism shown
by the Bank Of North Dakota to league
banks in the loans and redeposits of
public funds and to individuals in the
making Of farm loans.
Reviewing the accomplishments Of
his administration, he showed the
economies it has brought about in dis
continuing useless offices and reducing
excessive salaries, and in addition
showed saving Of $685. ,050 in the
sale Of state bonds when compared
with the basis on which the former ad-
ministration sold them, and estimated
that on the same basis there was loss
on the bonds sold by the Nonpartisan
administration Of $1,700,320. He told
Of his efforts to secure assistance for
the farmers in the way Of marketing
and stated that he could no more pre-
vent the fall in the price Of wheat
this fall than Governor Frazier could
have prevented it in 1920. He also
showed that it is impossible for the
Bank Of North Dakota to finance. the
holding Of wheat as it has no other
funds available than those needed for
the farm loans, the mill and elevator
project and the operating Of the state
government. Under the law it cannot
sell bonds for this purpose, and it has
only a small amount Of securities on
which loans from other institutions
could be obtained.
He declared he could not support
Frazier as candidate for U. S. SEN
ator as his past record shows he has
not fhe necessary qualifications for
this Office, and he has in the past
neither upheld republican principles
nor supported regularly nominated re-
publican candidates unless they were
affiliated with his own faction. On
the contrary he had often opposed re-
publicans and supported not only dem
ocrats but socialistic radicals who
would destroy the government. The
governor closed with strong endorse
ment Of Hon. j. F. T. O'Connor, who,
he stated, had always been found sup
porting the principles Of constitutional
government and standing firmly for
the interests Of the people.
O'Connor has resumed his speaking
tour, which was interrupted last week
by his trip to Washington in an en-
deavor to secure additional extension
Of credit to North Dakota from the
War Finance corporation. He spoke
this week in the southern part Of the
state and was received by large aud
fences.

their place in the parade and rem
dered several Of their choicest selec-
tions afterwards. Forman people were
delighted and will hire the band again

nit.

BUSY SEASON FOR WOODMEN
Plans Laid Tuesday Night for Winter
Program

1ueo0Sy nl&nC Cne WO00men nelQ
their first meeting since last May, and
they had a busy session. As soon ~
the presiding officer had taken his
seat the proposition Of arranging for
the winter campaign came up and was
discussed from all angles. In order
to arouse Interest. to the highest pitch
It was decided to put on a beneficiary
member campaign, and the lodge was
divided into two camps, one headed
by L. w. Beckwith as captain, and
the other by Herbert Knock, Sr. At
the end Of six weeks the results will
be checked up and the winners given
banquet. It is part Of the scheme
to compel the losers to shoot the
ducks necessary to make this feed q
success, even if they have to go to
Florida for them.
The Monte Carlo dance last spring
having been such an unqualified sue
cess, it was decided to hold another
some time during the coming winter.
This paper gave the lodge quite bit
Of publicity on their efforts last year,
so in order to show their appreciation
one Of the members was appointed to
call and offer thanks in person on be-
half Of the lodge. This wasn't neces-
sary, though, because we are always
glad to boost anything that helps any
Oakes organization along.
On Nov. II it is planned to stage a
real, old fashioned hard times dance,
and they're going to charge only so
cents. Each couple is requested to
bring lunch for two, the lodge furnish
ing coffee, cream and sugar. Those
in charge suggest that three or four
couples join and make it a regular
picnic supper. No fried shirts or
waxed mustachios will go, so if you
don't come dressed like you had trad
ed clothes with scarecrow the Judge
will stick on a small fine. o. H. Nc
Grew, Aug. Erdmann and E. Naylor,
the latter as chairman, comprise the
entertainment committee, SO you know
things will be popping. These worth
les will probably cook up lot Of
mischief between now and Nov. IL,
SO it may be well to be'o your guard.
But you'll have lot Of fun, and that's
the main idea.
Other entertainments will be put on
later when the season is further ad-
vanced.

Farmers Want Potatoes Certified

Farmers Want Potatoes Certified
Ten fields Of potatoes were inspect
ed by County Agent A. E. Adams and
w. G. Couey, state potato specialist
of the extension division, this fall to
determine whether the tubers from
these fields might be certified for sale
as improved seed. Bin inspection Of
potatoes will be made this winter to
finally decide whether the product is
worthy Of certification.
Inspections were made this fall Of
the following fields: Glover, H. X.
Haldeman, acre Early Ohio; c. E.
Olson, 6 acres Early Ohio. Clement,
Martin Morgan, 2 acres Early Ohio.
Glendale, r. ]. Mueller, Y acre Early
Ohio; Edna Heine, " acre Early Ohio;
Fred Kalbus, acre Early Ohio; o. D.
Beggs, / acre Irish Cobbler and 4
acres Early Ohio; Henry FROZEN Of
Oakes, " acre Early Ohio.
"During 1921 potatoes were certi-
fed for sale as seed for total Of 80
farmers" declares Mr.. Couey. "Dur-
ing 1922 we have made 807 field in
spections upon request from individ-
ual farmers, in cooperation with
county agents, and it is apparent that
a much larger number Of farmers
wish to take advantage Of the oppor-
tunity to certify their seed this year.
Figures obtained from growers show
that in 1921 the certified seed brought
an average Of so cents per bushel
more than the uncertified product.
When one considers that Last year q
total Of 53,124 bushels Of potatoes
were certified for sale as seed it is
apparent that the work conducted by
the state extension division and the
county agents on this one project has
resulted in an increased income to
potato growers Of more than $25, 900"

Over 100 Teachers in Attendance at
| Annual Meeting

ems writes that more than 100 teach
ers were in attendance at the annual
teachers institute for Dickey county,
which was conducted in the normal
school at Glendale Sept. 25-29. Mrs.
Martha p. Tatem, one Of the former
state rural school inspectors, was con-
'ductor, and was ably assisted by Mrs.
Mabel E. CAM as primary assistant.
State High School Inspector Rob-
ertson conducted a special department
for high school teachers Thursday and
Friday. This was new feature, but
was found to be we'll worth while.
Some Of the outstanding features
were: Special work in dental hygiene
by DR.. H. E. Thomas Of Glendale; J;
talks by DR.. Robert E. Babcock, a
famous physician and specialist from
Chicago, and Hon. E. F. Sweet, for
-merly assistant secretary Of COM
merce. State Superintendent Minnie
]. Nelson, County Superintendent
Faith Stevens, President Black Of the
normal schol, County Superintendent
Mrs. Mabel Osborne Of LaMoure and
Field Deputy Blanche Stevens gave
interesting and instructive addresses.
State and county history, the modern
health crusade and campaign for elm
ination of illiteracy were subjects Of
discussion. Methods Of teaching were
reviewed, problems were discussed
and the course Of study illuminated.
One of the interesting outside fea-
lures was the informal banquet given
for the teachers in the Methodist
church parlors. Toasts were inter-
spersed between courses, which added
to the interest Of the occasion. The
speakers Of the evening were Rev.
Duden, who gave the invocation, Miss
Clara Landmark, who read a selection
from Kipling in her usual able man
ner, Mrs. Mary Pennington Strand,
who gave four minute address on
''vision," President Black, who talked
on Initiative. City Superintendent

County Superintendent Stevens was
toast mistress, and all present voted
the evening delightfully."- spent. Much
credit is due the Ladies' aid for the
anlendid service given.

the great majority Of teachers, and
many worth while suggestions were
carried back to the schools. The teach

LOSE TRAIL OF wRsTHoPB GANG
Roundup Of Transients Gives No Clue
to Murder Of Marshal

Transients are giving Westhope Q
wide berth since the killing Of Carl
Peterson, night marshal, by a gang
which was robbing the Medaugb hard
ware store Monday. Westhope citi..
zens are aroused over the deed, and
strangers are carefully scrutinized.
Nearly every transient in the city was
taken into custody and required to
account for his whereabouts at the
time Of the murder.
Authorities do not believe that the
yegg gang remained in the city after
the shooting. ...-.
County authorities are concentrat-
ing their efforts in attempting to
definitely locate the route which the
supposed robbers car took after it
left Maxbass. It had been driven
there, and members Of the gang had
broken into the oil station and OBJ
tained quantity Of gasoline and
cylinder oil. In Maxbass the trail
was lost.
Belief that the members Of the
gang were amateurs, was expressed
by Sheriff Thomas Hennessy Of Bot
tineau. who arrived at Westhope Mon
day to investigate the matter. He
bases this belief on the fact that the
men stole several cheap watches which
were in the store, besides other loot
Of a minor nature. He secuted the
possibility that the men were men,

ing along the Canadian border.
