BOSTON (I.N.s.).-An auto
matte fire alarm which sounds

to fill building is under careful
study by fire departments
throughout the State.
The invention is an electrical
apparatus which throws q steady
beam Of light. It can be set in
operation at night, or when q
home or building to be left alone.
The warning is sounded the mo-
ment a fire starts and creates
enough smoke to interrupt the
light-beam.
The breaking of the light-beam
causes an electric circuit to be
completed through a powerful
fire horn, thus automatically
sounding the alarm. Electric
signs also will flash causing Wis.
ual attention to the fire in the
building. An auxiliary sprinkler
system can also be attached.

Have read the letters of the Peo-

with Edgar Vicks' "Old Time"
Wherever you found a saloon there
were plenty of DRINKS staggering

If we open saloons we will find
plenty of back rooms filled with
young girls and boys The reason
there are more boys and girls drink

instead of better. as some claim. We
can see more children, both boys and
girls, smoking, than we did 10 years
ago. The 18th amendment is not the
cause of it. as many take it for an
excuse. Iniquity is on the increase.
The Bible states that in the last days
iniquity will abound and that goes
its way whether we have saloons or
not. Those that get tanked up with
booze now will do the very same
thing if we get open saloons, and
more So Many yell because there are
so many kicking the bucket by drink
ing poison booze. For those who
haven't got sense enough to leave it
alone it is best for them and the
public if they do kick off as they have
to die anyway, someday. I believe
that there is better order now than
there was with open saloons. even If
there are plenty of drunkards in the
country. If saloons were open, we
would find it worse than the way 1t

THE TEMPER IN THE GARDEN
Bismarck, N. d.,
Editor, Tribune:

Feb. II, 1857.
Editor, Tribune:
It is now about Ii months since
the evil spirit came into the mind OF
Percy M. Hansen and his little group
of racketeers in Jamestown and start
ed their effort to remove the capital
from Bismarck. They started this
movement before the ashes OF the old
capitol building were cold
AS Mr.. Hansen has a mania Tor
changing things which have stood the
test of time, think it is now the
right time for him to change the name
Of his newspaper, the Jamestown Sun.
It should be known hereafter as the
Morning Star That would relieve all
the best business and professional
men of jamestown from all the blame
for misleading statements made III
the Jamestown Sun.
Mr.. Hansen asserted in an editor
ial that there are those Tin the group
of Jamestown persons opposed TO MS
removal plan) whose souls are SO low
that they would be forced to look up
to gaze into the eyes of the original
tempter of the garden OF Eden.
Mr.. Hansen is wrong again. Ihey
are simply looking into the eyes OF
the imitator and servant OF the old
original tempter.
There was morning star. who was
called Lucifer. who came into the
Garden of Eden. He was good at that
time (and so was Hansen years ago.
but when Lucifer broke the law CT
God and tempted Adam and Eve
with that apple. then the trouble be-
gan and Lucifers name was changed
to Satan, the devil.
The first lie ever told was told IN
the Garden of Eden. and Jesus says
that Satan is the father OF all lies
and of liars.
And that is the reason l suggested
Mr.. Hansen change tha name OF the
jamestown Sun to the Morning star
We know that the Sun is an emblem
of life-giving but the emblem OF the
original tempter was serpent ana
is death-giving. So, Mr.. Hansen. Try
and tell the truth in your newspaper
once more. The best people IN James,
town have rebelled against Hansen
and his racketeering group because
the apple that Hansen gave them a
wear ago has been tasted and mas
proved to be a bad lemon. Mr.. Han
sen should remember the old slogan
that a man changes his mind but
fool never.
The first thing HanSens racketeer-
ing group did year ago was TO nave
a new map made of North Dakota to
show that Jamestown was the center
of the state and that Bismarck was
away off from the center. Now II
has been proven that Bismarck is a.
miles closer to the center than
Jamestown.

for capital removal that the taxpay.

81 worth of property which would bt
lost to the state in Bismarck If the
capital were moved there. Has ne
produced any figures to prove 1t?
That was just as misleading as all
the rest of his writings with regard to
capital removal. Figures do not lie
but do not let P. M. Hansen compute
them.
Here are reliable figures on mileage
given by the state highway depart
ment-and these figures are correct
from the So counties of the state tt
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1932-02-19

both Bismarck and Jamestown. The
total mileage to Jamestown Is 5000
miles and to Bismarck 1884 miles.
That shows Bismarck Is 116 miles
closer and would cost less in travel
ing expenses with the capital at Bis
marck than if it were moved to
Jamestown.

fort and it falls to the ground and Is
