AT BARGAIN
Historic Welch Castle Sold TO
an American for 1000
Pounds

Lodon, Sept. l2.-LR)-Castles are
being sold in England at bargain
rates Historic mansions of various
sizes and ages have been disposed of
recently by members of the older aris-
tocracy because Of high taxes and
death duties which it is contended by
many families have made it advisable
to dispose of non-income bearing
properties rather than hold them be-
cause of their historic value.
In other instances, drastic econ
omies have been made in the admin
istration Of great estates, one Of
these being that of the Duke of Nor
folk, which originally embraced some
$4,000 acres. Arundel Castle in Sus-
sex, home of the 17-year-old Duke,
has been closed S years and there is
talk of selling it. The Duchess of
Norfolk gave up the castle for a
modest cottage in Oxford to be near
her son, who is attending the univer-
sity.
The most recent transfer of a
castle at low figure is that of
historic Gwydyr in the vale of Con-
way, which was purchased by Jay
Mitchell of Coldwyn Bay for 1000
pounds. Gwydyr was the seat of a
famous Welsh family, the Wynns
until 1878. That part of the original
castle which still stands was built
in 1865 by Sir John Wynne and for
generations has been a favorite haunt
of sightseers. 1t was restored in
1928.

MAN DIES
AT DEVILS LAKE

Devils Lake, N. D., Sept. l2.--LR-
Robert f. Beaudreau. 40, Bismarck,
died suddenly here early today.
Beaudreau, who had been travelling
for the Kelly How-Thompson Co., Of
Duluth was picked up Tuesday night
apparently out Of his mind and was
subjected to a mental examination.
His wife, formerly Miss Isabelle
King Of Minot, told authorities that
her husband was subject to nervous
breakdowns and asked that he be
kept under surveillance. 1t was
thought that rest might restore his
mental faculties. Relatives Of the
dead man live at Wadena.
Beaudreau was horn at Degraff,
Minn., but his people reside in Wa
dena. His parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Al
ID. Breadreau, are in California. He
was an ex-service man and legion
naire.
Beaudreau formerly made his head
quarters in Devils Lake.
Robert E. Beaudreau is we'll known
in Bismarck where he has a wide
circle Of acquaintance. During the
last few weeks, friends say, he suf-
fered from nervousness believed to
have been brought on by strain of
overwork.
Prior to his marriage he lived at
the Grand Pacific hotel.

USE TRACTORS
ON N. D. ROADS
May Discard Horse for Motor
Grading Equipment

The gasoline motor will win an
other victory over the fast vanishing
horse il the state highway. commits.
sion accepts the recommendation of
n. G.. PlomasOn, its maintenance en-
ginecr.
In a statement made public today
Plomason suggested that more atten-
tiOn be given to the use of motor
equipment in maintaining North Da-
kOta's roads and that he be permitted
to visit several neighboring states t.
inspect the manner in which they are
obtaining desirable results.
The tractor is more valuable than
the horse in road maintenance work.
Plomason explained, because Of its
greater speed. A great many people
are of the opinion that all that is
required to maintain road is to
give it an occasional scraping. This
may have been true before the ad-
vent Of the automobile but now we
find that to even properly drag u
road a patrOlman must not be given
more than he can cover in lO-hour
period. 1t would be better if he
could make two rounds on his section
within this time, as it is Of no avail
to drag an earth road after the soil
becomes hard. In time. with this kind
of work, the road would be worn
away leaving trenched lane for
traffic.
Among the things which Plomason
would like to inquire into during his
proposed trip is that of maintenance
accounting and the classification of
maintenance costs as we'll as new in
formation on the use of gravel. "Mr.
Hathaway, district engineer of the
federal bureau of public roads, claims
gravel roads are better maintained
in South Dakota than anywhere else
in his district" said Plomason. Let
US find out how they are doing this.
Let US profit by the experience Of
states that have been at this work
longer than we have"

Big Death Rate
Is French Menace

Paris, Sept. l2.-[P)-Too many
deaths and not too few births is said
to be the real cause of Frances dwin-
ding population. This is just be-
ginning to be brought out by asso-
Citations formed to combat the tend
ency toward depopulation Of the
country.
The French birth rate is compar-
atively the same as that Of other
countries. Compared to England it is
1914 per 1000 against 1877 per 1000;
but the French death rate is II, per
1000. against l1.6 for England, ac-
cording to figures for 1923 just
made available.
Infant mortality in France has the
appalling high rate of SO per 1000.
This is attributed to ignorance and
defective hygienic conditions which

seeking to combat by education and

THREE ENTER
SENATE RACE
IN WISCONSIN
Uncertainty Develops Over
Matter of Filing as lnde-
DendentS

Milwaukee, Sept. 2-R-The
several candidates entered in the spe-
clal nominating primary September
10. in contest for the seat in the
United States Senate made vacant
by the death Of Robert NJ. La Fol-
lette. represent various forms and
issues of Wisconsin Republicanism.
Robert NJ. La Toilette. Jr., heading
the La Toilette faction; Roy P. Will
cox, heading the Coolidge faction and
Francis f. McGovern. heading the
progressive faction opposed to the
candidacy of young La Toilette, have
all filed on the Republican ticket.
Arthur Il. Barry, u Republican,
finding the La Toilette w heeler tick
ct made legal at the last election in
Wisconsin, not in use. filed under
that banner, and is the only avowed
wet candidate. The Democrats have
picked William George Bruce, and
the state central committee Of the
Socialist party has selected John w.
Work. These three are unopposed.
Some uncertainty has developed
whether any of the defeated prim-
ary candidates may file as an inde-
pendent in the election, to be held
two weeks later.
La Toilette takes up the tasks of
his father where he dropped them,
according to his platform. He is 81
years of age and has been groomed
for years as his fathers successor.
Coolidge Choice
Mr.. Wilcox was the unanimous
choice Of a convention called to "per-
NIT the people of the state to ex-
ercise their will in selecting a can
didate." He subscTbes to the prin-
ciples Of Republicanism as set forth
by President Coolidge. With his
supporters he took the stand that
the present state administration,
backing the candidacy of La Toilette.
Sr., in his campaign for the presi-
dency, stole the Republican party
in Wisconsin for political purposes
and uses.
McGovern, whose campaign is be-
ing conducted along progressive
lines. was twice elected governor Of
the state and holds to the principles
of Progressivism, but is opposed to
the candidacy Of young La Toilette.
McGovern's plea is based largely on
the fact that his age and experience
are more in keeping with the office.
Wilcox, McGovern and Barry are
lawyers. Young La Toilette has
spent the majority of his time since
graduation from the University Of
Wisconsin under the eye of his
father.
Mr.. Bruce is the head of large
business in Milwaukee and has been
prominent in civic movements for
many years.
Mr.. Work is a newspaper editorial
writer on Victor Berger's publica-
