FARMER DIES

Fred C. White, aged as, resident Of
Mandan and vicinity for more than
20 years, died suddenly Wednesday
night of heart trouble at his farm
home, Is miles northwest Of the
city.
During the day Mr.. Witte had been
packing furniture preparatory to
moving to. Iowa. At 3 o'clock while
beating a rug he had sudden pain
in his chest. Quitting his work he
went to his room to lie down and
rest for time. The pain shifted
to his left shoulder. Wednesday
evening he was jovial, talked with
his wife and son and said he felt
better. Suddenly at 8:45, Mrs. Witte

a gasp, They turned to his bed, but

family and moving to Valley June

city. Having put in his years crop
the family planned on removing to

have other property and it was while
preparing household goods for ship
ment that death overlook him.

PROHIBITION AND PROSPERITY

While most of our European friends are envylng
or hating because of prosperity, and sneerlng
at us for our hypocrisy about prohibition, Lloyd
George strikes different note.
To the Welsh statesman the situation is very
simple. America is immensely prosperous-he sees
that and admits it grudgingy. Also America has gone
dry Not teetotay dry to be sure but dry enough to
produce big economic effect. Wherefore, putting
two and two together, Lloyd George calmly tells his
European brethren that prohibition has made Amer
lea prosperous
An American observer, too, could make good
argument for that conclusion. There are plenty OF
figures to support it, in spite of the failures and mis-
takes of dry enforcement More is heard OF the tall
ures than the the foes of prohibition make
more noise than its friends and the drunken make
noise than the sober Yet 1t can De SHOWN ina.
far less money is spent for liquor than spent
before the dry amendment adopted and that
there is sobrety and more OF the fruits OF SOB
riety in the form of thrift and progress.
If Lloyd George is right, then Europe needn't
continue it's envy 1t has the remedy in its own
hands. Let Europe go dry, too, and prosper-thougn
in doing so it might profit by our enforcement mis-
takes.

But for II months and three

Mexican Locust
War Successful,
Many Pests Killed

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 5.-A re-
port from the president OF the Ma
ticnal Junta for the campaign
against the locust indicates that the
fight to prevent the invasion of
hitherto free areas is proving sue
ccesful and that the areas now in
Tested with the pest should be free
bv the end of the year.
1t is estimated that so per cent
of the pest have been DESTROYED, to-
taling slightly in excess of 1000 tons
of lorusts, grasshoppers and eggs.
Efforts have been concentrated
largely in destroying the new gene
ration in the states whera most DAM
age has been dole with a view to
preventing invasion of the rich ag-
rieultural states ON the Pacific coast
and in the northwest, where for a
time is was feared the locusts
would spread.
The states which have suffered
rost have been Chiapas, Campeche,
TabaSco, Vera Cruz, OaXaca and
lucatan. Lack of communication III
the isthmus states rendered the
fight more difficult, the swarms of
locust becoming SO dense in some
sections as to render it necessary
for trains to proceed with all eau
tion where they had clogged up the
tracks.
If the campaign continues unabat-
ed it is believed the stamp tax,
levied for the determination of the
pest, will shortly be abolished. 1t is
too early to estimate the damage
wrought but undoubtedly it will run
into millions of pesos.
