10000 Valuable Law Volumes Being
Moved to New Supreme Court Chambers

Canadian records Of law and decisios.
A code Napoleon, dating back to
1924, is one of the valuable collections.
while other volumes are priceless in
value.
Early records Of the supreme court,
from the time it was established In
territorial days, as bench composed
of federal district judges, are also in
cluded.
Transcripts Of cases heard before
five such judges sitting en- banc Is q
supreme bench are buried in the files.
Records of J. H. Newton. clerk Of
the court, will be moved first. The
moving is expected to take more than
week.
No new furniture will be installed
in the justices office, because Of re-
duced budgets.

PLEA FOR UNITED ACTION
Braddock, N. D.,

1AN6uOv o. A0OSs
Editor, Tribune: Now that the Re-
publican state committee has met and
pretended to name another candidate
for governor 1t Is time that the peo-
pie took stock OF state affairs and
call state convention to nominate
another state ticket for the Novem-
Der election. I am not q party man
but have supported the Nonpartisan
League ever since 1t was first organ
lied. 50 am q better Lacquer than
LANCER ever was and will not vote
any Langer-sponsored state ticket. He
has been convicted in federal court
and. according to my dictionary. that
makes him convict and according to
the state supreme court he is no long
er q citizen, therefore can hold no
office or be candidate for any. But
he can 60 throughout the state cam
paigning for q state ticket but being
q convict how can We support his
ticket? It is said that q government
IS no better than the people who make
1t. How, then, can We support his
ticket which would be the same thing
as supporting LANCER himself?
We can name new state ticket
composed Of the three Republican
factions and OF even the Democratic
party II they care to Join In with US
and name state ticket with Ole H.
Olson as governor as he received q
larger vote In the primary than any
other Of the four candidates for gov
ernor on the three tickets. That
proves his popularity with the people
Of the state. I would also retain John
HUSKY as he has never been able to
show what he could do as commits
sioner Of agriculture and he repre-
sents. the Progressive Republicans;
also Fay Harding Is railroad commits
sioner because Of his experience and
his large vote. The remainder Of the
ticket could be composed Of Indepen-
dents and Democrats as far as I am
concerned, not being q party man.
This would be fair to all Is none Of
them can get anything separately
therefore they should unite on Peo-
PIES Independent state ticket and
bury convict rule 30 deep It will never
show itself again. An emergency has
arisen IN this state when Ill Of Us
should forget our differences and
unite.

Aug. 2. 1884.
Editor Tribune:
Our friend from Killdeer III his
enthusiasm to defend Dauntless Dunn
Is more to be admired for his loyalty
than his failure to stay on the ground
and stick to facts. for old timers In
that county know that Dunn Is no
particular oasis In this vast territory
where the cycles Of weather show !
strong inclination to drouth, COM.
mencing with their early farming
with failures from 1911 to 1894, at
least nine years wherein failures were
extreme. Take 1891, and that was not
80 rosy, but bad one. and 1898, where
lie says Western North Dakota had
an average Of five bushels of wheat,
and II that u SO. it must have been
confined to . good yield 1T ten or
better at Beach, for this writer knows
that running from township l43 on
east side Of Dunn clear through to
l44-97 In Western Dunn and over In
Billings, there was not enough wheat
In that line Of townships to feed q
coffee mill, and It has repeated with
a 100 per cent failure this year.
Our friend indicates the herds were
multiplying 50 extensively that they
had to be thinned out anyway, but
Just to make sure Of keeping q lot of
hay on hand they don't think 1t worth
while to harvest the wheat but cut 1t
for hay, while from observations up
there the past week, one might as
well run q mower on the side walks
OF Dickinson as most Of the country,
and I know townships where one
single load Of prairie hay cannot be
secured even with the use of 4 Bar
ber's clippers.
Green7 Yes. Dauntless Dunn has
that color, or did have it three weeks
ago, Is well Is ill the rest Of the
drouth area. but it was our tenacious
Russian Thistle that gave It this en-
erald appearance and not native pas
lures or growing fields, except the
corn fields that are struggling along
now, trying to survive until 1t rains.
The wonderful hay crop In Daunt-
less Dunn Is just the Russian Thistle,
for outside that q meager scant hay

fields that were too poor to use for
anything else, but that will be small.
Speaking Of this native Russian
Thistle Hay, rancher south Of here
had an old corral and used to stick
up his barb wire there, and had left
10 spools Of barb wire near q stack of
Thistles, and let his cattle in to eat.
They ate up the barb wire but never
touched the thistles, the barb wire evil
IDENTIFY having q more palatable quail
ity.
Now Dauntless Dunn Is one Of our
best Western Counties, but DR.. Mead
Is not making any careless statements
when lie says there are areas in this
vast territory where 1t would be bet
ter for those having the poorer lands
to hike elsewhere.
But Dr.. Mead should get this Kill
deer booster to help him colonize. for
that boy can put it over. Dauntless
