WCURDY CHOICE OF DUNN COUNTY FOR STATE JOB Halliday Urges Bismarck Law- yer as Candidate for Attor- ney General F. E, MeCurdy and former s leigh county, next attor general of the state suc- ceeding Wil anger who is slated for the goyernor’s chair, On the first page of its latest issue the Halliday Promoter of Halliday urges the placing of Attorney McCurdy as head of the state’s legal department and feels positive that the entire Slope country will be behind MeCurdy for that office. MeCurdy was the first state's attor- ney for Dunn county being apointed to that position by Governor John Burke in 1908. His service in that oftice so pleased the Halliday Promoter and citizens of Dunn county that a good sized hoom has been started to name the ex-state’s attorney of Dunn and Burleigh counties as attorney general. In suport of their contention that McCurdy is the best n for the posi- tion, the Promoter says: : When Dauntle: Dunn was or- ganized into a county January 17, 1908, she was also casting about for 4 state's “attorney, none at that tim: living within the borders of the county Governor John Burke found them one, a republican who se tom well, and one who made many friends in Dunn county, friends who are still with him, and glad to know that he is climbing up along the line of his chosen profession, until he is now not only one of the leading attorneys of Bis- marck, but of the state. His many Dunn county friends would like mighty well to see him in the oflice.of attorney general, knowing fully well that the office would be nicely taken care of under: his admi ation. We refer to Mr. F. FE, MeCurdy of Bismarck, first 's attorney of Dunn county, and also a former resident and prae titioner of Stark county. This part of the Slope comitry wants MeCurdy.

Waters, Washington, Dee. 4.—The govern- ment has 30 million pounds of fresh frozen beef that it will sell to mayors and governors, in car-load lots, at 10 percent less than the packers will sell it. \ Is this much beef? i From the standpoint of vegetarians, it is more than the people should ever ent. From the viewpoint of dietitions, it is as much as the 100,000,000 people fin the United States should eat in two days. From the angle of the cow: puncher, it means a herd of 45,000 steers. From the standpoint of consumers, it i much bee? as they could buy fo- 00,000 at current’ retail prices. government expects to get about 300,000 for it, laid down at the point of consumption. And furthermore, the government expects this meat to save {ihe cOusumers $6,000,000 on their mear bill. And this is what is worrying the five hig packer: They have tried ‘to buv this meat, which is stored in New York and Chicago, for export, but the government refuged to sell on their terms, The packers want to buy this beef, unload it on Europe at a big price and prevent a reduction in meat prices in America. yors who want to give their con- stituents cheap meat may purchase this frozen becf, by applying to any of the government zone retail stores, for from 10 to 12 cents per pound, Thev may get local meat dealers to handle it at a fixed margin of profit, but fair. The government thinks it should sell for from 15 to 20 cents a pound to consumers. The ogvernment also has 1,000,009 pounds of pork shoulders that it will ship in the same cars with beef whil* it lasts at 171-2 cents a pound. This will give the people cheaper pork roasts than they have seen in years, 600,000 pounds of mutton that it wi'l ship as far west as the Allegheny mountains and 100,000,000 pounds of chickens it wiil sell on the eastern sea- hoard for 30 cents.a pound MISSOURI TO TAKE vovernor Gardner Will Not Need Martial Law to Provide Needed Fuel Jefferson (Ci Mo., Dee. 4.—It bituminous coal miners in} ssouri do not return to work by |; n00n tomorrow the state will take ove: | the mines with a view to operating} them regardless of the costs and con- siderations.
