Tbic concern ihas branch offices at 1 Bllisvllle, fit. 'David and Glanford, 111., all in the famous corn Mit of Illinois, at Clinton, la., and at Mlnot. Geo. W. Swords, one of the mem bers of ithe Arm, is well known in Ml not, having made this city his head quarters for several years, as Receiver of the Mlnot National Dank, and in ad ditlon, to that (position, he was recent ly appointed Receiver of the First National ibank of Rugby, N. D. As Re ceiver of the Mlnot National Bank, Mr. Swords made an enviable record, the bank having already paid the depos itors ninety (per cent, with prospects Cor the entire amount in the near fu ture. IMT. Swords recently .bought the property at the corner of First and Reishus streets, which was considered a far sighted ipurclbase, and the com pany will conduct taeir business at this location, as soon as the building can toe enlarged. Thus, the Butler & Swords concern intend to make Minot a permanent (branch for their growing business, and 'have shown good Judg ment, in selecting so progressive a growing city. J. A. Brick son, we'll known in this part of the state, has been engaged to manage the Minot branch. That Mr. Briokson wMl make a success# of the undertaking. Is a certainty. Mr. Butler, prealdent of the com pany, was a Mlnot visitor tart week, and looking the field over, believes that the Minat branch will within a very abort time, Tank with the best of those conducted by the company. Mr. Butler is very well known to the financial world, being president of three weU known Illinois banks. The firm of Butler Swords, In a financial way is as «olld as the Rock of Oilbralter, business always been conducted in a conservative way. They are members of the Association of Commerce, a body which comprises business men of the bert standing. The association itself has been one of the biggest factors in the develop ment of the west. At 'present it is erecting a three million dollar club house in Chidagft. Such men as James B. Forgan, president of the First National Bank of Chicago, whose deposits aggregate two hundred mil lion dollars, are members. The object, naturally dn opening the branch office in Minot, is to get into closer touch with the tanners, and this will enable the company to make loans strictly on their merits. Mir. IFlannigan left for his home at Chicago Monday night. To an Inde pendent representative, he expressed himself, in a very optimistic manner, concerning the future of Minot and northwestern North 'Dakota. He is a keen, far sighted young business man, and the only regret that the Indepen dent has, is not to remain here per manently. The business however has been left in good hands, and already is movlnlg along at a raipid pace. LITTLE GRAIN IS SOLD The •farmers are nwwdng a brave ef fort to hold their grain, and as a re sult, the fall's collections are not likely to be very good. Take the Sur rey station for instance. Up until Sat urday night, forty thousand busbies of iwheat had been bauled to itlhe elevat ors at that place, and all of it was stored with the exception of $800 worth, which had been paid to the farmers. Think of tihe small percent age. Only about six per cent was sold outright. Of counse the grain Is 'be ing shipped right along, and so long as it floods the grain centers, the price is not likely to naise, and may even get lees for a time. It is believed that in (time, it will advance again, and those who can afford to hold their grain long enough, may profit thereby.

Dakota That's What Interest Collector at Aberdeen Say* Cars of Beer Sold in North Dakota Last Year Grand Forks, Aug. 28.—That there are now 1791 bllndpljs licensed in the prohibition state of North Dakota, is the information contained in a letter received here from the collector of in terest at Aberdeen, 0. D„ who has charge of the district composed of the two Dakotas. The communication which is personal one, stated there were the above number of "special tax stamps," which is the federal license for selling liquor and costs $25. It demonstrates tfhat there is a place where liquor Is obtainable in North .Dakota for every 244 of populati9n—tw'ce as many as are allowed to exist in Minnesota un der the new liquor law which permits of but one saloon for every 600 inhab itants. Number is Increasing The collector's letter seems to dis olose, also, the fact that blindpigs are increasing in number rather than decreasing in North Dakota, as in 1906 the number of federal licenses av eraged but one for every 319 lfcabit ants. Statistics for the Intervening years are not obtainable. The letter asserts that the number of federal li censes in South Dakota Is 1,573—or 118 less in the "wet" state than in the "dry" state. The large majority of these North Dakota federal licenses are issued to "p^ol rooms" and "soft drink" dispensaries where "malt" (at least so labeled), Is sold im trnmm quantities and for w*hfch them surprising demand.
