BRIEF NEWS ITEMS
Events Ttiroaghoat the State
Tersely Told.
At a largely-attended meeting of the
board of control having in charge .the
securing of an endowment for the
support of superannuated preachers of
the Methodist church of North Dakota,
their widows and orphans, the report
of the treasurer showed that $120,000
had been raised and that enough more
could doubtless be added in the next
year to swell the amount to a quarter
of a million. The board approved the
work of Alexander Carr of this city,
field secretary, who secured the con
tributions. The board recommended
to the state conference, which meets
at Grand Forks next month, that Rev.
Mr. Carr be continued in the field an
other year and that a bo^rd of nine
trustees control and invest the fund.
Three clerks of district courts }n
North Dakota discussed, at the session
•f the North Dakota Clerks' associa
tion at Grand Forks, new laws that
were enacted by the last legislature.
They were B. C. Boyd of Thraill coun
ty, N. H. Rinde of Walsh county and
C. M. Cupp of Rolette county. New
laws were given consideration by
George T. Richmond of Stutsman
county, Herman Stenseth of Ramsey
county and August Bergman of Rich
land county. It is expected a commit
tee will be apppointed for the purpose
of investigating the question of more
uniformity in laws relating to clerk of
courts, such committee to report at
the next annual convention.
The Richland County Fair associa
tion has received word from the
Wright brothers, that Howard Gill will
be the aviator who will appear at Wah
leton. Gill was at the Minnesota state
fair early and in spite of the bad
weather made sensational flights, on
one occasion reaching an altitude of
5,000 feet. There is every probability
that a local man will accompany Gill
on one or more of his flights. Several
have signified their willingness to ac
company him. Hundreds of corn ex
hibits are already arriving and every
thing points to the largest number of
entries in the agricultural line ever
known in this section.
While Northern Pacific passenger'
train No. 6 was passing through the
Jamestown yards J. H. Whitmer of
Beach, a passenger, shot himself
through the right breast with a re
volver. Passengers heard the shot
fired, and when the train stopped at
the station a brakeman found Whit
mer breathing his last. He had a
ticket from Beach to Washington, D.
C. He is supposed to have been a
farmer by occupation and partly de
mented. He was about twenty-five
years of age.
Asa Fisher, who built and for
years lived in the present gubernator
ial mansion of the state, is dead. In
formation to that effect has just been
received from Boston, where he made
his home in late years. It was in 1872
that he arrived in Bismarck and with
two companions opened a mercantile
establishment in a large tent. Later
he entered the wholesale'liquor busi
ness and then was president of the
First National bank.
George P. Williams of Philadelphia,
secretary of the board of missions of
the American Sunday School union,
was one of the visitors at the meet
ing of the organization in Grand
Forks last week. He was at one time
a missionary in North Dakota, having
been located at Bismarck, and sever
al of the Sunday schools founded by
him there have been turned over to
various denominations, and turned in-
Earthly possessions of Mr. and Mrs.
William Jackson, transients,, were re
turned to them by Grand Forks po
lice under peculiar circumstances
when they found they had left $95 in
gold between the mattresses of their
bed in a hotel. The authorities sent
the cash to the couple in Duluth by
Great Northern conductors.
Sirs. Mary R. McLeod, in an address
before the state convention of the W.
C. T. U., strongly recommended a na
tional health departmei^, especially
for its help to stricken children, and
also declared that many of the suffer
ings both of children and adults could
be traced directly to the use of alco
holic beverages.
Political pulls will be of no avail
to North Dakotans seeking an ap
pointment to Annapolis or West Point
academies at the hands of Congress
man A. J. Gronna of Lakota, as he
has announced his determination to
conduct a competitive examination on
Oct. 24 for the purpose of selecting
his appointees.
The first actual work of North Da
kota's new fire prevention association
was begun in Jamestown .when mem
bers gathered from all parts of the
state and began f-.n examination of the
buildings in the business portion ol
the city. This work will be carried on
all over the state.
Papers, in an action brought by
State Food Commissioner E. F. Ladd
of the Agricultural college against »Ar
mour & Co., charging the concern
with violation of the state pure food
law, have been filed in district court
at Fargo by State's Attorney A. W.
Fowler.

Conservation Congress Con'
venes at Kansas City.
FARM IETB0DS WRONG
Speakers at First Day's 8ession De
clare Continuation of Present Sys
tem Will Result Disastrously to the
Country—President Wallace and
Governor Hadley Discuss 8ubject
'in'Addresses.
Kansas City, Sept. 26.—Plain words
were used by speakers at the opening
session of the third annual National
Conservation congress here A point
\ng out that the continuation' of pres
•nt day farming methods will result
calamitously for the country. Not only
a change in treatment of the soil but
of the country people as well was
urged. Only by bettering social con
ditions on the farm, it was declared,
could the young persons be kept there.
About 3,500 delegates attended.
Statesmen, scientists, educators,
farmers and representatives of every
branch of American business and so
cial" life wer& in attendance.
The program of the morning ses
sion was largely routine. Governor
Herbert S. Hadley of Missouri deliv
ered an address of welcome, to which
President Wallace and Hon. J. B.
White, chairman of the executive com
mittee of the congress, responded.
The afternoon program included an
address by Judge B. B. Lind3ey of
Denver, whose siibject was "The Coun
try Child vs. the City Child."
Warning to the Farmers.
Governor Herbert S. Hadley of Mis
souri, in his address of welcome, said
that experts had shown that over 40
per cent of the farm lands of this
country are cultivated in a manner
tending to decrease rather than to in
crease their productivity. Such a pol
icy must inevitably result, he said, in
the impoverishment of the nation.
In his address President Wallace
declared that many farmers of the
present day have more faith in moon
signs than in agricultural colleges and
experiment stations more faith in
ordinary politicians ttfan in college
professors and scientists more faith
in yellow journals than in the best
agricultural papers and that the Nine
teenth century farmer was no farmer
at all, but a robber of the soil. He
strongly urged scientific farming as
the only means by which the cost of
living can be reduced.
Mr. Wallace outlined two drifts of
population—from the farm to the city
and from the city to the land—and the
work of the congress as related
thereto.
WIREMEN MAY GO ON STRIKE
Baltimore and Ohio Telegraphers Vot
ing on Walkout.
Cleveland, Sept. 20.—The telegraph
ers of the Baltimore and Ohio rail
road are voting on striking to enforce
demands for better pay, shorter
hours and improved working condi
tions.
Action by the union would affect
telegraphers, telephoners, lever men
and station agents and probably com
pletely tie up the Baltimore and Ohio
system.
MAY- SAY SOMETHING LATER
Attorney General Silent Regarding
Steel Corporation.
New York, Sept. 26.—Attorney Gen
eral Wickersham arrived here to at
tend the conference on the American
Tobacco company plans for reorganiza
tion and also to look after several
other federal matters.
Regarding United States Steel he
said:
"I have no statement to make,
though I may say something later."
AMERICAN ENSIGN KILLED

In Philippines.
Washington, Sept. 26.—Ensign Hal
ler Belt, commanding the little gun
boat Tatanga, was killed by hostile
natives at the Yacans islands, part of

severely wounded.
