NEED NEW STEEL FENCE
AT FAIR GROUNDS

During the recent Stearns
County Fair we heard many
reports of the splendid condi-
ton Of buildings and grounds,
and we found there was moth
ing wrong with the fair, as it
has been improved, even to the
fact that the financial condition
is better this year. However,
there is one thing that needs
attention at the fair grounds,
and that is the hideous fence
around the property.
Reversing the order Of things
in this case, the inside of the
cup is bright and nice, the out
side not so good. Usually we
plan to have the outside Of our
property just as nice as the in
side, but for reasons this has
been impossible at the fair
grounds.
However, there is a plan under
consideration which within two
years or less may provide a new
steel fence around the grounds.
This will demand the coopera-
ton Of this entire community as
well as the entire county. Peo-
pie of this community, are of
course, more interested because
it is the gateway to our city, and
we in particular should back any
move with a plan to secure a
new fence around the grounds.
This article is not written to
find fault, but rather to show
the need of such Improvement
and to enlist the cooperation of
the people Of the county, espec-
tally those of this community.
We had a good fair, with sat
isfactory attendance this year,
and it will be improved each
year with proper support. For
that reason we should improve
the surroundings. A cover does
not make a good book, but you
can't very well sell the book
without it. Stearns County's
Fair will be at Sank Centre for
many years, as we see it! So
why not build a permanent
fence and add to the beauty of
the well-kept grounds, we ask?

Not Profitable
Men With Crudely
Raised Paper Money
In Tolls of Law
FORGED CHECKS
Turned Over to Secret
Service Following
Admission of Guilt

Making $1.00 bills into tens did
not prove profitable for two fellows
who tried to pass the raised bills
in this city last week Thursday
night. They are now in the tolls
of the secret service in st. Paul
awaiting sentence.
One man entered the Sank Cen
ire Liquor Store Thursday evening
and attempted to pass one of the
raised bills. The bill being rather
dirty, Fred LUX scrutinized it close
ly and called the proprietor, Ed.
Bartylla. The two men blocked
both doors and called the police.
After questioning, the fellow ad-
mitted that he had partner with
him, and he told where their car
was located. After time the 9TH
er fellow was caught, and both
were held in Jail, pending the ar
rival of Sheriff McIntee, of st.
Cloud.
The men, who gave their names
as Robert j., Kaiser, %, of Bismark,
N. D., and Clifford j. Louis, 80, of
Fergus Falls, had thirteen Of the
one dollar bills, crudely changed to
tens with them. Later it develop
ed that one Of the men had hidden
eight more Of the raised bills in q
hedge in an alley. Secret Service
men brought him back to this city
from st. Cloud and the bills were
located.
They forged checks at Alexan-
dria and Fergus Falls, and the one
dollar bills derived were raised to
tens. They cut out figures and
pasted them over the ones, and
blended the figures into the bills
with a pencil. They also in some
manner dirtied the bills in an eff
fort to cover the crude work. They
raised the bills in an Alexandria
hotel.
Both Of the men signed state
ments with Sheriff McIntee admit

vice men were called to make fur

Twenty-one bills, all raised to
tens, were recovered, according to
