WITH KILLS
in
Assistant Agent at Standing
Rock in Fargo Jail to An
swer to Manslaughter.
James Bristow, said to be a cousin
of Postmaster General Bristow, and
an assistant agent at the Standing
Rock indlap reservation, was brought
into Fargo this morning, charged with
manslaughter in connection with the
killing of Albert Smuttybear, an In
dian belonging to the reservation. The
tragedy occurred some time last win
ter and at the time of his hearing, Mr.
Bristow was exonerated of any and all
blame. However, the Indians, through
legal counsel, took up the matter with
the authorities at Washington after
securing additional evidence, and Bris
tow's arrest followed. He is now in
carcerated in the Cass county jail.
It seems that the trouble arose over
the fact of Sniuttybear's continued an
noying practices toward the accused.
Bristow, it Is claimed, warned the
brave to desist or he would kill him,
and the Indian, it is alleged, there
upon took after Bristow with a re
volver and chased him into the house,
breaking down a door in the meantime.
In the scuffle which followed, the In
dian was killed, and In the preliminary
hearing Bristow was completely freed
from all blame.
CAST HASDLE CROPS.
Farm Laborers Scarce on the Soo and
Fifty Men Wanted.
Mr. G. E. Barr, a resident of Eck
rnan, came in last night and when in
terviewed by an Evening Times rep
resentative, said* in regard to the
crops: "Harvest has commenced in
earnest, nearly every farmer in the
district having made a start, and with
continued fine weather there will be
no let-up until all the crop is cut. The
wheat is coming in very rapidly, but
it is doubtful whether some of the
farmers will be able to handle it in
time to save a certain amount from
loss by swelling. This district has
been very fortunate during the present
season, being well supplied by mois
ture when it was required to produce
growth and also when the ripening
season arrived, the district has also
escaped from the dreaded wheat cal
amities such as rust, hall and frost
and the only damage reported from the
recent hot weather was the shelling
of some of the grain. The average for
the district will range from 20 to 25
bushels of wheat per acre and the
coarse cereals are away above the
average, giving promise of phenomenal
yields.
"Farm laborers as usual are scarce
at' this point only an odd few dropping
off here, the inclination of the eastern
helpers apparently being to get as far
west as possible and avoid the small
points. Good wages are being offered
by the day or month and at least fifty
men or more could find ready employ
ment in this district.
"Considerable farm property has
changed hands in this district at good
prices."

BIG GAME INCREASING.
Deer and Moose in Northern Minne
sota Multiply Rapidly.
Game Warden Sam Fullerton of
Minnesota has the following to say
about our big game.'
"The big game in Mtnnesota Is In
creasing fast. There are more deer
and moose in Minnesota today than
there was five years ago. This seems
a rash statement to make but it is
none the less true. The reason is the
increased protection afforded them.
The lumberman and the pot hunters
were the chief cause of the fall of the
deer and moose in this state. These
conditions are almost entirely elimin
ated now as lumbering in Minnesota
is fast disappearing, and the arm of
the law is now long .enough to reach
these pettty offenders. Besides peo
ple have seemed to acquire a sense of
shame, as it were, and no longer con
sider the game and fish .commission"*,
as a huge joke, but see it as a force
to be reckoned with If disobeyed.
"Why a few years ago it was posi
tively dangerous for a game warden to
make an arrest. As recently as eight
years ago a party of Indians stabbed
a warden to death, near Walker, for
trying to put a stop to the slaughter
say that in the state f&med
far and near as the 'Deer and
Moose state' tflere are today more deer,
moose and caribou in the state of
Minnesota than in Mains, anJ with
proper protection there will be good
hunting in Minnesota for all time."
GOOD JOKON TAF!
The Rotund Secretary of War
Butt of Jests of the World's
Comic Papers.
Atnaclated Ptcm to The Bveilag Time*.
Washington, Aug. 25. Secretary
Taft has found his way into the comic
papers all over the world as the re
sult o( a joke Associate Justice Brew
er of the United States supreme court
told on the rotund secretary of war
at the recent Yale commencement.
The- pleasantry of the distinguished
guest, it will be remembered, was based
on a compliment he desired to pay on
the chivalry of Yale! men.
"Yale men everywhere are polite"
said Justice Brewer, "but Secretary
Taft Is the most polite man I ever saw
In my life. Why, the other day I was
in a street car with him, and he got
up and gave hiB seat to three women,"
Scores of clippings based on this
Joke reach the war department every
week. It has found its way Into many
.languages, but Germans seem to ap
preciate it the most. Many of the
German papers comment on the story
at tength and say that at last the Yan
kees seem to be developing real wit.
