GETTING OUT FROM UNDER
Plentywood Mayor and Fire Chief Resign. Cal Peterson
Assumes Mayorship and Martin Nelson Is New Chief.
Hr. J. C. Storkan has decided to
get out of politics and has resign
ed as mayor of the city of Plen
tywood.
Many were the things he
going to do for our little burg,
and few were the things he djd.
He had his councilmen travel
hither and thither investigating
municipal power plants and report
back to him. He called special
elections and we all voted with
him. He was our champion. He
was the one who was going to
save Plentywood and give us
cheaper light and power. He got
j up as a roaring lion and laid down
as a little lamb. Probably he.
found out that really doing some
thing for the people takes a lot
of backbone. Probably he found

Under Auspices of Y. C* L.
Edward McCone of Westby was
lout that it pays for a city mayor
1 to keep people from getting cheap
light,
Lew Hein, who for years has
been the city fire chief, has also
resigned, and Martin Nelson has
(taken his place. Lew has always
: done what he could to prevent
people from collecting their fire
insurance. Probably there have
1 not been fite enough lately to
make the job worth while.
With few taxes and lots of
trouble and no graft ahead, slid
ing out from under is the easiest
way out of it and that is what our
former mayor, Dr. Storkan, did.
Cal Peterson is sliding into the
empty chailr and will be the boss
of the city until next election.

McCone was an old timer in
Westby. For the last five years
he had been managing the livery
stable there.
He is survived by his sons Fay
and Clair and his aged mother, all
residing in Minot.
Hansen had been invited to the
Marius Ibsen home for New Year«

they called him up and asked hum
when he was coming over. He re

that he was geing to end it all.

COALRIDGE MAN IS
SUICIDE; SLASHES
NECK WITH RAZOR
John H. Hansen of Dagmar
committed suicide at his home sev
en miles southeast of Coalridge at
about ten o'clock New Year' Day
by cutting his throat with a razor
blade. H elived about an hour..
and found him m the garage with
the doors closed trying to start
«11
the car in an effort to commit su
icide in that manner. Ibsen talk
G(1 nini into going into tn0 nOUSG.
Ibsen asked him what was wrong
and Hansen «plied that he wim
going to commit suicide. He told
Ibsen to leave the place. On Ms
way out Ibsen saw a shot gun and
three shells. He took the shells
with him. He went to Dahl\ a
nearby neighbor to get help. When
Dahl and Ibsen returned they
found Hansen on the floor with his
throat cut. When they asked him
why he had one it he repiied : 'T
had It coming. I am the worst kind
'of a criminal." They then called
Dr. Weeks of Grenora who did all
he could but Hansen only lived
about five minutes after the doc
tor arrived.
• a • a j i i
The coroner investigated but
could find n«o apparent reason for
the suicide as deceased was well
fixed financially, owning consider
ble property in Los Angeles and
Sheridan county. It is thought
Hansen was mentally deranged.
The body was taken to the Ful
kerson-Nelson Mortury in Plenty
wood where it was prepared for
burial. The funeral was held at
the Hansen brothers farm Thurs
day. The body was afterwards in
. , _ , t at
terred in the Emanuel Lutheran

cemetery at Coaindge.
