Friday night, they defeated the Turtle Lake quint at. Turtle Lake 24 fo 17, Owing to the size, of the gymn the game was quite rough. The Independents used a short pass game effectively and worked through the Lake City’s defense time after time. Coach Riley took six men on the trip. Saturday night the locals defeated the Mandan Independents at Mandan in a fast game, 20 to 16. It was 3 real battle from the start. The jo- cals came from behind to win in the last few minutes of the game. The Independents are going at a fast clip having won four games in a row. Come and ,help them beat Wilton this evening at the High, School gymn. Liquor Law Violators Held Hazelton, N. D., Feb. 16—Three of the liquor law violators who were taken into custody a couple of weeks ago by prohibition officers, and who pleaded guilty to the charge filed against them were taken to Napole- on Monday and given their sentence by Judge Geo. M. McKenna. Each drew a $200 fine and ninety days in the county jail, besides a severe lec- ture from the judge, it is said. Those who received the sentences were Chester Brogden of Hazelton and Otto Dobler and Benedict Junt of Linton. Andrew Fiest, John Stoll- er and G. Grenz who were taken into custody at the same time, waived ex- amination and will have their hear- ing at the May term of district court. Pat Donovan, captured at Linton with six gallons of moonshine, broke jail last week and so far has not been recaptured. He was under bonds at Kulm, and is wanted in the twin cities for bootlegging, it is under- stood, SAYS PERSONAL ATTACK IS NOT PROBE PURPOSE (Continuea from page 1) Aid projéct 59, Richland county, on which Treadwell Twichell was con- tractor. Mr. Lounsbury, later on the stand, said that the settlement made by the board of arbitration to Twichell amounted to $47,000 and that Twi- chell only originally asked for $43,000, and that Jack Garven, engineer on the job, had firyred Twichell had and that Jack Gavin, engineer on ouri, has been subpoenaed. Lounsbury said that the dispute arose over clay surfacing and that this work was not covered in any written agreement. He said Rich- land county was not represented be- fore the board of arbitration com- posed of Crabbe of Fargo, Bliss and Mudget of Valley City, and that Bliss had assumed responsibility, saying there was a mixup on dates, aes ROBBERY BILL. IS UP TODAY House Bills 187 and 198 introduced by Divet and Dougherty, and since amended by committee to provide a imprisonment for. in the first in- stance highway robbery with a gun, and in the second instance burglary with a weapon or burglary of a bank or other institution with safe cutting apparatus, probably will be passed today when they come up on third reading and final passage. The bills came in on a divided re- port, the minority for indefinite postponement. *Factional lines were shattered on the recommendations, Rep. Fine declared highway robbery more severely than murder. “It treats the man who commits murder better than the holdup man who merely robs a bank,” Mr. Fine said. Reps. Hempel, Cart and Miller, the communist, wanted to amend the law so that it. would provide life for a banker who embezzled money, Rep. Divet who drew both the mea- sures insisted there was too much sentiment. allowed to influence courts, juries, ete. and declared the act was so drawn that mitigating. cir. cumstances would permit the judge to use his discretion as to the penal- ty imposed. Rep. Burkhart and Rep. Elken declared the measure did not | make a comparison as between money and life,‘ but as to the method and manner of robbery,-and: Mr. Divet in- sisted that something had to be done to throw fear into the yeggmen. On a division the majority favor- ing passage of the bill was most de- cisive. Farm Plan Is : * To Be Pushed Fargo, N. D., Feb. 16.—-Plans to push a definite program to make North Dakota one of the outstanding states working toward a more profi- table and more orderly type of agri- culture were adopted at a conference in Fargo of the agricultural commit- tee of the North Dakota Bankers sociation, officials of the North Da- kota Agricultural college and repre- sentatives of the American Bankers association. It was decided to put on an agres- e statewide campaign by counties Aseociated EAT GAINS AFTER FALL Fluctuation Marks Early Trading in Chicago Chicago, Feb.’ 16—Notwithstanding a downward tendency at. the outset, wheat soon made materail upturns in price today.’ Offerings were quick- ly absorbed by houses with seaboard connections. Besides, previous sell- ers bought freely. Initial weakness was associated with a large increase of the amount of wheat on ocean passage and with a poor) tesnonsée which the Liverpool market made to advances Saturday on this side of the Atlantic. Opening quotations, un- changed to % cents lower, May $1.85 % to $1.86% and July $1.57, were followed by a sag all around and then by a rise to $1.87%, May de- livery.

ROAD PROGRAM 278 miles of gravel surfacing and 2.4 miles of concrete paving. Based on contracts already let, the total cost, under estimates of the High- way Commission, figures approxi- mately $1,550,000. More’ requests have been received from counties for Federal Aid and it 1s probable that this total would be increased. ‘The comparison would indicate that un- der the legislative good roads pro- gram, there would be a marked dim- inution of Federal Aid road build- ing in the state in 1926. The inereased motor vehicle fees would yield more revenue to coun- ties, and with counties barred after 1926 from meeting Federal Aid, larg- er county road funds would be creat- ed. A group in the state legislature has been very insistent that a policy. of county road building, rather than state highway construction, be out- lined by the legislature. The good rounds program of the North Dakota Good Roads Association called for a state fund in excess of $2,600,000 an- nually, including Federal Aid. The motor vehicle license fees as provided in House Bill No. 3 would increase the total revenue from this source something beyond $100,000 annually, according to members of the House Highways committee. The truck; $27.50 for 2 1-2 ton truck; $35.00 for 3-ton truck; $55.00 for 3 1-2 ton truck; $70 for 4-ton truck; $130 for 5-ton truck; $250 for over 5-ton true In addition an additional fee for] i: commercial passénger transportation would be at the rate of $10.00 per year per passenger, based on the carrying capacity of the vehicle. All motor cycles would pay $5 an nual license. Commercial freighting is defined to mean carriage of things other than passengers for hire, between points not wholly within the limits of the same city or village, exempt- ing local dray lines hauling from railroad station to places in vicinity. Commercial passenger traffic would be between points not wholly with- in limits of city or village, exempt- ing bus lines from railroad stations to places in vicinity. JOHN N.

Mrs. Albright was taken’ seri- ously ill a few days ago and is in a hospital at Portland, Oregon. Preferred Private Life Mr. Bloom did not seek publie of- fice, preferring the business of a newspaper man. He was a strong supporter of Governor John Burke, and was appointed a colonel on the Governor's staff in 1907. He was ap- pointed state game and fish commi sioner by Governor Lynn J. Frazier April 9, 1917, and served until Feb. 28, 1922, During his life Mr. Bloom was affiliated with the Odd Fellows, Mo- dern Brotherhood of America and Ancient Order of United Workmen lodges. He was a member of the Methodist church, and was a friend of Rev. S. F, Halfyard, former pas- tor of the Methodist church in Bis- marck, and now pastor in Mandan. Mr. Bloom has continued in the last three years to count Fargo as his home, owning a residence there. The death of Mr. Bloom came as a organization rose to power in the state. In newspaper circles Mr. Bloom was knogn as a good business man and a capable editor, in politics he was known as one who asked and gave no quarter, never dodging a fight. His last public statement, is- sued last week announcing his res- ignation, contained a denunciation of men, Who, he asserted, were ready to “sell out the party.” Born in Roseville, Ilinois, April 24, 1864, the son of Dennis Downing and Rachel M. Bloom, he learned the printer’s trade after completing his schooling. In following his trade he lived’ at various times in Pawnes, Richardson and Gage counties, Ne- braska, 1870 to 1885; Del Norte, Co- lorado, 1885-97. In 1900 he came to North Dakota, going to Devils Lake, and in 1904 he established the Dev- ils Lake Journal, which he published until @ few years ago, when he sold it, Mr. Bloom later was business man- ager- of the Courier-News at Fargo, the Non partisan League organ, and in December, 1928, he came to Bis- marck as editor-manager of the North Dakota Nonpartisan. He also, at the time of his death, was receiver of the Farmer-Labor State Record, local Nonpartisan weekly. Mr. Bloom and Miss M jorie San- shock in political circles in Bismarck, especially to members of his politi cal faction. Mrs. Bloom, who was prostrated by the sudden death, was taken to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Muir, on North Sixth street and received many callers Sunday afternoon and evening, they coming to express their condolence.
