Martell Urges Grant
County to Organize
Cooperative Creamery

Carson, N. Oak, Feb. 20.-A good
cooperative creamery, one that will
enable farmers to make q profit on
the cream they sell rather than take
a loss. is among the greatest econom-
ical needs of Grant county today, &C.
cording to Theodore Martell, county
agricultural agent.
MI. Martell points out, however,
that such a creamery would need the
utmost support of the community to
keep on a profitable basis.
Citing that dairy farming has ex-
tended rapidly here in the last six
years and that many farmers are
milking to make farming pay. the
county agent said that Grant farmers
deserve a creamery here which will
enable them to eliminate freight
prices to out-of-th county cream
cries and thereby bring them a great
er return. He warns that such a
creamery should not be built at a
point where butterfat Is not available
in sufficient quantities to make the
institution pay.

Grand Forks Bankers Attorney
Move to Quash Embezzle.
ment Indictment

Grand Forks. N. D., Feb. 20.-R)-
Proceedings in w. v. O'Connor's
fourth trial on q charge Of embezzle-
ment were halted today when Francis
j. Murphy, defense attorney, moved
to quash the indictment.
Murphy declared the> records show
that Phillip r. Bangs had not filed an
oath Of office as assistant states at
torney for the year 1925 but was
present in the grand jury room at
times when the indictment Of O'Con-
nor was under consideration.
This Murphy maintained, would in
validate that indictment since the
law prohibits the admission to the
grand jury room of anyone except the
grand jurors, witnesses, the states at
torney and his duly qualified assist
ants.
Murphy declared the records Of the
county auditor show that Bangs was
appointed assistant states attorney
for the year Of 1928 and va reap
pointed for the years 1924 and 1926,
but that his oath Of office Is filed for
the 1923 appointment only.
The presence Of Bangs In the
grand Jury room is shown by the
minutes of the grand jury, the attor-
ney declared. and submitted the rec
ords in question to Judge F. G. Sven
son.
f. T. Cuthbert, special prosecutor,
asked for a recess in order to prepare
an answer to Murphy's motion. It
was granted. Cuthbert and Bangs
vent into conference and it was un-
derstood they would file affidavitS in
answer to Murphy's motion this aft

The Heart river is coming up rapid

the southwestern quarter OF Mandan.
and sometimes part Of "Dogtown,"
bordering Syndicate on the east. last
year caused considerable damage by
flooding parts of the city.
Last year. however, was exception
al in that a huge ice gorge in the
Missouri river south Of the mouth Of
the Heart backed up water in the
tributary and caused it to overflow
more territory than in the ordinary
year.
Residents Of the southern part Of
Mandan are not expressing much fear
Of q bad flood again this year. be-
lieving that the two rivers will break
up in ordinary fashion.
Sudden rise in the Heart river now
is caused by the extremely mild
weather for this period of the year
and the subsequent melting of ice and
snow in its valley.

Hughes and C.. B. Little, after the
state first satisfies its own lien OF
$1,000. based on a mortgage.
The judges action is embodied III a
long legal paper setting forth his
findings of facts and of law, after
which he states his decree.
The suit was filed in 1922 by Com
