SAVING CAR CARRIAGE. “4 dispatch from Point Pleasant, W. Va, says that about 150,000, tons of coal’ will be moved from there to Cincinnati each month by the crea- tion of artificial waves in the Ohio river. These waves are to be induced by manipulating the dams between Point Ple: and Cincinnati. These dams control the flow of water from the pools or reservoirs that have been dredged out by the government along the river to provide for the gradual! distribution of the water in flood times, and it has been discovered that this water can be used to porar-| ily increase the depth of the streams) when they are low There will be three waves released each month. On their s the coal barges will ride. It is calculated that it will take each wave 12 hours to go down the river from Point Plea: This means 120 boats| to each wave. \ Tt ii imated that the water sup-) ply will permit of the releasing of | Temperature at noon Highest yesterday Forecast Fair tonight and} Zo st yesterday 38} Lowest last. night . 29] Precipitation One | ¢ Highest wind v eloc NV "| i | for North Dakota: Sunday; not much change in temper- ature.

Those informed know that the vaporings of Gronna,} LaFollette, Townley and Frazier do not represent sentiment in this state. The political maneuvers of the state administration to appropriate a fare- well congert for an eleventh hour at- tempt to. mitigate some of the dam age done at the St. Paul LaFollette| conference are amusing in the ex- treme. But the public is not so easily de- ceived. Actions speak stronger than words. Governor Frazier presided | over a seditious meeting last week inj St. Paul and there was neither enougi| backbone nor Americanism in his sy tem to check the renegade LaFollette. Hie gave every impression of hugely enjoying the tirade against the ad-! i ministration. | After he and his henchmen encount- ered the cold atmosphere of the morn- ing after, they realized what a monu- mental blunder had been made. Some- thing had to be done and done quick. ly. Official pressure was brought to bear to intrude upon a farewell con- cert and persons were picked to fur- nish the proper setting and give tone to the occasion. But a discerning public appreciates the full weight of Frazier’s indiscre- tions. They cannot forget in a night his indifference to the liberty loan, his tardy recognition of the Red Cross, his absence from the seat of govern- ment when more than 60,000 loyal! men of North Dakota marched to the registration booths and enrolled inj} the national army of defense, nor can a little flag waving or primer history obscure the fact that when thousands of boys were moving to mobilization camps last week, the governor of the] great state of North Dakota was pre- serving order while Senator LaFol- lette addressed an audience, the ma. jority of which were what Roosevett! has aptly termed “neo-copperheads.” | Birds of a feather flock together.| You are judged by the company you keep.

And poorer women who had no jewels | —what could they sell? At last one little homebody of a woman had an idea! She could sell her silver thimble! Every woman has a silver thimble! And if all the wom- en in London—and in all England— gave their silver thimbles and had them melted they would produce a great quantity of silver. And silver is money! The plan was instantly popular. The middle class women of England gath- | ered their silver thimbles, old cuff- links, and bracelets and worn silver spoons, and all their discarded treas- ures of precious metal and had them melted over into money. In a single year there was collected a fund which seven automobile ambu- lances, five motor hospital boats, and large sums for relief funds for dis- abled soldiers. The sum collected by these women who had nothing to give but their silver thimbles amounted to $75,000! Now the idea has spread to Amer- ica. The women of the navy league in Indianapolis are planning a fair to raise money for the bluejackets on the U. S. battleship Indiana. They propose to ransack their rag bags and garrets—and no doubt they will also take up a collection of old jewelry for the melting pot. So if the Ladies’ Aid society of the Baptist church, or the Shakespeare club, or the Thursday Knitting club wishes to adopt a battleship, or a regi- ment, or a machine gun company and! see that the members have as many jof the comforts of home as “permit- ted by military expediency” the idea by which the necessary funds may be collected is hereby respectfully sub- | mitted.

Robinso; The plaintiff appeals from a sutzinent against him in this suit to recover $1,605, commission on an alleged listing contract for the sale | of a half sectjon of land. The listing contract was Yo the effect that plain- tiff might contract for the sale of the land at $7,000 net to the owner, five hundred cash, and the balance on crop contract, payable, in five years. The plaintiff wrote defendant offering to contract with a party for the sale of the land on different terms, “which will be, of course, subject to your ap- proval.” To this the answer was: “Do the best you can and as quick as you can, and that will suit me.” The plaintiff obtained from one William McMahon a: crop contract for the pur- chase of ‘the land on crop payments in seven yeags.-without any cash pay- ment. He mailed that proposed con- tract to defendant in California for the signature of himself and his wife, with a mortgage on the land for $1,000, payable to the plaintiff, to be executed by the defendant and his wife. He writes defendant: -“I want you to see that they are in proper form to your satisfaction.” Well, they were not in proper form to the satis- faction of defendant, and he returned them. He did not care to give plain-|, tiff a mortgage on his land for $1,000 and a half of the crop grown on it during the season of 1915, worth $605 in exchange for a seven year cropping contract with a person not able to make any cash payment and of no assured responsibility. Defendant was not such a fool. It fs exceedingly nervy for anyone to appeal such a cage to this court or to any court. Sept. 27, 1917. In Re Doherty. Robinson, J. This is a disbarment proceeding. The first charge is that about six years dgo in an attachment suit Doherty did some wrong in chang- ing a preliminary justice court sum: mons by inserting the name of an ad- ditional defendant. If Doherty made the change, it was made before the service of the summons and before it became a matter of record. It was of no serious consequence and it did no injury to any one. It was such a change as the justice should have made as a matter of course. The suit was for coal furnished at the request fit of two parties who were made defendants. This charge is doubly out- lawed and it amounts to nothing. The second charge is in regard to the s It seems strange, lthat lawyers should ever bring such, act their lands for) sale and subject the mse!ves to a suit!

He had a farm of 320 , acres some 30 miles from Minot and seven miles from Berthold. The farm was rented and he retained Doherty to look. after the faim and the tenant} | and the crops grown thereon, and to make reports to him concerning the same; and also to foreclose a mort- gage on @ half section of land and to do everything gmecessary to protect his interests-in regard to the farm, | ‘and for that purpose he gave Doherty ” weneral and s;ecial power of attor- ney. Doherty looked well after the farm and the tenant He watched the hai yesting: and threshing of the grain; ie made “numerous trips to the farm, going by inctorcycle and. by automo- bile, incurring much danger and dis- comfort and expense. On one trip he remained at the farm nearly two days and one night with Wanless to aid} him in settiing his matters with the ‘ite Gounsel to Wanless I] matters concerning the farm ani other matters. He commenced an action to foreclose a mortgage; commenced an attachment suit for $650; and a replevin suit against the tenant. He furnished the tonds, pros- ecuted the suits to final judgment and paid all the costs. In the replevin suit he recovered a judgment against the tenant for 778 bushels of wheat and 590 bushels of oats, and the costs of the action, $33.40. And he did for Wanless many other things too num- erous to mentigp” The result was that Wanless received some $1,400 that he might have Tost: ‘The services of Doh- erty were faithful and efficient dnd his charges were moderate and rea- sonable.
