PAGE SIX THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE BAD BOY MAYOR SEEKING OFFICE ‘Bossy’ Gillis, Despite prisonment, Runs for State Im- Legislature } Newburyport, Mass., Oct. 3 G®)— Andrew J. (Bossy) Gillis, Newhuryport’s imprisoned mayor, has decided to run for the state leg- islature, and what’s more, he is not treating his campaign lightly. Al- though the “bad boy” mayor is in the middle of a two months’ sen- tence in the Salem jail, his candi- dacy is proceeding with much force on a flood of stickers with Bossy’s name on them. The mayor’s decision to become a candidate for the legislature was believed to have been influenced by the fact that 3,500 people unsuccess- fully petitioned Essex county of- ficials to parole the mayor. The district, known as the 18th Essex representative district, com-| prises Bossy’s home city of } buryport and a number of smal 1— ill Her is was jailed for violating a municipal law forbidding the opera- tion of gasoline stations in certain parts of the ci RICHHOLT CORN DISPLAYS GROW Between six and ten displays had been received this morning for the tenth annual Richholt corn show, which will be held at the Richholt Cash and Carry store Saturday. Managers for the show, who ex- pect to receive displays from 75 Bur- leigh county farmers, are getting things in readiness for the display in the store Friday and for the judg- ing Saturday, Equipment used to display the corn is borrowed from the state corn show over the week-end. Most of the Richholt exhibits will be en- tered in the sixth annual North Da- kota corn show November 7-10. “Much of the corn is frozen this year,” according to managers. “This robs the ear of much nourishment and gives the cob a withered appear- ance. On the whole, however, the exhibits already received are excel- lent.” A. R. Miesen, county agent, and Geo Will, manager of a local seed house, will be judges for the show. JOE PREDICTS LARGEST VOTE En Route with Senator Robinson to Evansville, Ind. Oct, 31.—(4)— As Senator Joe T. Robinson carried his campaign into Indiana today he looked back on his experience in Il- linois as indicative that an unusually large vote will be cast in next week's election. The Democratic vice presidential nominee expects the result to be fa- vorable to the Democratic national ticket, but whatever happens No- vember 6 he is sure the people have manifested the ‘greatest interest in politics this year in the history of the country. His expectation that a huge vote will be cast is based primarily on the receptions that have been his wherever he has spoken, despite the fact that the last three weeks of his nation-wide tour have carried him through states usually Republican at national election time. And although Senator Robinson has been in nearly three-fourths of the states and has made upward of 150 formal and informal speeches, he declares as the campaign draws to its close that he feels better than when he started. His voice has stood oP in fine shape, and he has been able to get the exercise he needs by @n occasional game of golf. | MANDAN NEWS | | MANDAN HAS 2,383 VOTERS ing Tabulation of registered voters in ‘Mandan yesterday indicates that the jcity will have a record vote this ‘year.

IN DEATH CASE St. Paul Engineer Is Found in Street Fatally Wounded Last Night St. Paul, Oct. 31—(?)—An utter absence of clues marked the police | investigation today in the slaying | of Joseph Driscoll, an engineer, who was found fatally wounded in the}| street here late last night. | A man named Albert Lentsch, ar- | rested near the scene of the shoot- ing, was held today for questioning.

Did you ever stop to think that just below your feet there may be a small hard tube, perhaps 2 1-2 inches across, through which 2,424 small telephone wires are strung? The fact that it may be the case is brought out by the unique Gnd placed in the First Guaranty Bani by the Northwestern Bell Telephone company. The development of the telephone from the first crude apparatus placed on the market soon after the irstrument was invented until“the small handy ’phone of today is de- picted by a chart. The first picture shows the in- s strument of 1876, a large box- shaped machine that today would take up a good share of the mod- ern businessmen’s desk. On the other end-of the chart is the telephone of the future—a small one piece machine, with receiver and transmitter combined, making it impossible to talk with the mouth away from the mouthpiece. The in- strument is made of a light material that although ver} sensitive, permits the telephone to be dropped with- out damage. About 600 machines are in use in North Dakota today and orders have been received for about 600 more, according to F. H.
