"If elected, I will not break faith with the common people, but will earnestly endeavor to support the measures for which Governor Lan- ger had sought during the past eighteen months. HIS administra- tion has been one in which human rights have taken precedence over property rights. Through his mora- torium, in which I have the utmost faith, thousands of people have been kept from going to the insane asylum on account of financial wor- ries. This humane measure, which he was the first governor to de- clare, has since been followed in fifteen other states, and in Mexico and Norway--and more recently bY the president of the United States. "One of the outstanding achieve- ments of Governor Langer's admin- istration has been the restoration of the $inancial credit of North Da- kota. His refusal to sign more bonds to increase the bonded in- debtedness of the state, and his determination to reduce taxes have been instrumental in raising th~ value of state bonds from a low point of sixty-two to their present level which is over par. If elected I shall strictly adhere to these fi- nancial policies.

The peace and dignity of the city was disturbed Sunday afternoon by the arrest and incarceration of a hobo of several names for the bur- glary of the Ted Thompson store of cigarettes and some food. In this little drama "Hod" Davis, son of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Davis, was the hero, as he rounded up the be and turned him over to the sheriff. The hobo had gained entrance through a window at the rear of the store into an annex, and by whlt- fling away the d~or Jam was able to move back the restraining bolt and get into the store proper. While he was rummaging around, the noise he made attracted the attention of Bernie Dickinson, who had dropped into the adjoining Dickinson store for a moment, and through the clos- ed door between the stores asked what was going on. The thief dashed out of the front" door at this and made for the de- their AAA wheat adjustment con- tracts for the 1933 crop, and will receive approximately $10,900,000 more later in the year as the first payment on their 1934 crop con- tracts. Payments on the balance due ' from the 1933 crop contracts, also corn and hog contract payments will probably be made late in Sep- tember or in October.

An estimated 35,000 people greeted the president In Devils Lake this morning as he left his train for an auto trip through the lake region. He returned to Devils Lake to take the platform at 11:30 a. m. "I can't honestly say my hea~'is happ~ today," the president said. "I have been seeing things I've been reading about for some time."

Hod's suspicions were aroused by his flight, so he followed him to the jungles near the water tank and attempted to arrest him, without re- sult. Going home, Hod secured a gun and returned to the jungles, got his man and took him to the sheriff's office. All the plunder found on him was some packages of cigarettes. The bo was finger printed and is being held pending information as to whether he is wanted elsewhere, and if not wanted, will be run out of town. GOV, WILL TAKE BUT 120 CATTLE HERE PER WEEK Unlimited Head May Be Pur- chased But Farmers Must Hold Stuff on Farm For 90 Days. Three cars of cattle purchased by the government will be shippecI oul of GOlva on Friday this week, ac- cording to GCO. Wo~pka; surplus cattle agent. Mr. Wceepka states that he has received a list of fifteen hundred head of cattle from County Agent Rttas~ that are ready for ~nt, but according to the quota allowed for this oounty, he can ship O~ abo~ o~e hundred and twenty per week. Therefore; at the present rate, it, will take mor~ than thr~ nontl~ to move the ~ttle already ~ li~d. ~ounty Agent Russell, director of the drouth relief service for Golden Valley county, states that he will continue to purchase cattle for the government for some time yet. However, according t~ the latest rulings, each cooperator must agree to hold the cattle on the farm for a period of time not to exceed 90 days. Mr. Wosepka states that when ,there was no limit on the number of cars he could ship he had diffi- culty in getting as many cattle as he could handle per week. The reasons given by the farmers hold- ing surplus cattle was that l~ it rained they did not wish to sell. The rain did not come, therefore it has been estimated that at least 3,000 head of cattle will have to be ship- ped to the government as fast as the quota will allow him to do so. rank and file of North Dakota."

In a supplement to his executive debt moratorium covering all forms of indebtedness, Olson decreed "it is recognized that there are legitimate, honorable and necessary credit transactions of daily occurrence which should not be impaired by moratoria." He ordered the moratorium "shall apply only to debts existing on June 28, 1934, and shall not apply to debts thereafter created" "There are cred~ rightfully holding eiaim~ of actual bo~a fide debt voluntarily* incurred by .debtors who "have the means to pay without sacrifice of their home or needful possession, who should be required to pay," Oison's supplemental order said.

Feed for livestock is going to be very scarce in Oolden ValleF county neXt winter unle~ ewnT effort ls set forth to save what feed we have, says Ootmty Agent Rtt~lL Mr. Russell states that in many fields there is a good ~rowth of Rus- sian thistle left in the ~bbl~ after the crop has been harvested. If the stubble and thistles are cut and put into the stack without curing out in the swath or windrow it will make ~air feed to carry stock through the winter. Russian thistles are almost as high in protein as alfalfa hay when cut and stacked while young, The older they get the less palatable the feed they will make. He also said that the protein content of the plant dropped off very rapidly after the thistles started to mature. There- fore they should be harvested for hay as soon as possible. Stubble or straw stacked with the thistles while they are ptIIl green will .improve the quality of the feed. It will require three to four tons o~ roughage per head to feed an adult animal from December to May if the weather is favorable, ~kl Mr. Russell. Mr. Russell also said that feeds low in protein should be supple- mented with cotton seed cake to bring up the protein content of the feed. the Word has been received in city that James Ray Wilson, a for- mer resident of Beach, had com- mitted suicide, July 17th, either in wyoming or Nebraska, but no par- tlculars as to how it was done, or where were given.

"It's all very well to say 'Let's build a dam across the Missouri.' I'd like to do it. I can't build a dam unless I have the best engi- neering assurance that it is not only the right, but the safe thing to do. "Soon after I get back to Wash- ington many of the studies in rela- tion to this area will be completed. "Out of it all I believe we are going to do something, as you all know I believe in action. "Today I don't ask you to have courage and faith. You've got it. You've demonstrated it a good many years. I'm asking you to keep up that faitl~ and courage. "If it's possible for the govern- ment to help in the solution of prOb- lems out here, the government is going to do it." The president was introduced by Senator Gerald P. Nye, who said North Dakota was receiving a signal honor in the Visit of the president, "whose leadership and frendship means so much to us in the north- west."

A long time ago when dinosaurs and other prahL~torio animals were traveling about these parts and nature was laying down our great lignite COal beds, Feral Spiegelberg, John Gilbertson, or some other old time carpenter, who probably built a shack for a pioneer of those days, dropped a wrought Iron nail into the ooze that afSerward turned to coal.
