Bismarck. N. D.. May IT.—With the bonue system In full operation, the North Dakota prison twine plantrhas just completed the most successful standard twine "campaign" in the his­tory of the institution. For the last month the dally production has aver­aged <00 pounds over the 11,000-pound dpily maximum, adding each day 94.50 to the collective paycheck of the T5 men employed, or six cents for each Individual. The men like the bonus system, and it is resulting In much greater production at only a slightly Increased cost

The manufacture of standard sisal twine has been completed for the sea­son. with a production of 3,100,000 pounds. The plant is now turning out Manila twine.

Fibres are still going up. Manila has advanced three cents In the last two weeks and now is selling at 18 to 28 cents. Sisal remains at IT cents, but the Mexican government, effective May IS, established a new system of inspection and grading which probab­ly will mean an advance in price for the better classes of fibre.

The prison prices for twines have been flxed for the year at 14 cents for standard and 16 cents for Manila. Needless to say, at these prices, the plant is sold out "There have been inquiries for three timm as much twine as we' could supply." said War­den Frank B. Talcptt today.

DENNY SULLIVAN IS . STILL OUT OF GAME

Miifoiti N. D.. May 17.—Thatthe people of the northwest and of north Dakota would do their share In sub­scribing for the liberty loan bonds, was demonstrated by the enthusiasm with which fifty bankers of this dis­trict at a .meeting In the Association of Commerce building yesterday with the committee In charge of the disposal of bonds in this state, ap­proved the committees' plan by which the banks of the state will accept bonds to the extent of one-tenth of their surplus and capital.

Every county in this end of the state was represented at the meeting, which was marked by patriotism and pronounced desire by the financiers to co-operate with the government in solving the great financial problem.

L. B. Hanna, chairman of the state committee, outlined the plan, of the treasury department explained the bond Issue, and expressed confidence In North Dakota. He felt assured the allotment to this state would be over­subscribed.

Tracy R. Bangs of Orand Forks,

Said his own expenses to this cfty to e present and delivered an eloquent

patrlotio address. The meeting was of the unanimous belief that Mr. Bangs' address was the finest ever de llvered in the city.

All members of the state oommlttee were present except T. L. Belseker, whose place was taken by W. C. Mc Fadden of Fargo, secretary of the State Bankers' association. Those preeent announced their willingness to lend money on easy terms to peo­ple desirous of securing bonda R. E. Barron, in charge of the campaign In Ward county, stated this county would subsorlbe about 9118,0.00.

Governor Hanna said after the meeting he was highly pleased with the spirit of the bankers of this dis­trict, and felt confident all would do their share in disposing of the bonds.

INSURANCE PUN TO BE GIVEN SANCTION

Helena, Mont, May IT.—Official sanction will be givjn in Montana by State Auditor Wm. Keating to the plan that has been adopted in several other states of sscurlng payment of the premiums on Insurance policies issued to soldiers by popular subscrip­tion. Mr. Keating takes the position that psymenVof the premiums in the esse of men who carried insurance be­fore they became soldiers Is sound public policy and will be calculated to relieve public treasuries of the burden of caring for beneficiaries who other­wise might become public dependents^

Several different methods are being adopted. One is confined to popular subscription, another to interesting busihess organisations, and the third to the Canadian plan whioh is most widely approved—providing for the payment of the premiums fr'nm the funds of the towns and cities which raise the contingents.

LEADING CITIZENS

Fought with Canadians and it Now in War Hospital

(Herald Special Service.) Sidney, Mont, May IT.—L. J.

Huth or this city has just received a letter from Fred B. Woodard, former­ly of this elty, but now lying wounded in an English hospital:

10 Moreton Terrace, . South Belgravla,

London, 8. W. I., April 14, 191T.

Friend Lou: Am having the time of my life just

at preeent, lying in a nioe. soft clean, white, comfortable bed in one of the beet hospitals In England.

I was wounded In the "Vlmy'push" In France last Monday and got a nice soft "bllghty." In case you don't know what that means it is this: Blighty means a wound sufficient to bring one to England. Tou will al­ways hear the troops say: "Hope I get a nice soft "bllghty," for that means a rest of from two to six months away from the "Fritse Whise-bangs" and other shells.

.Tou no dofcbt have read In the pa­pers of the Canadians capturing the neatest German stronghold, Vlmy Ridge. That's where I got It. It sure was some exoltement and fun (until I got mine), and it was even laughable to seed the herds of Huns throwing up their hands and shouting "Mery Komerad.'/ We went over the top following the artillery fire or "banage," and say Lou, I never knew there were so many guns In the world. The German trenches were not In evidence as our artillery fire had completely demolished them, leaving nothing but shell holes In their place.

I am looking forward to the ar­rival of the first United States con­tingent with .a great deal of Interest and sure hope some of the Montana boys get over with them.

Sincerely, i —Fred E. Woodward.

"If liberty is to survive we must do the job not by hiring mercenaries, but the co-operation- of more than 100,-000.000 people each on* doing his or

; her part In backing the soldiers in the ranks who have the bit in their teeth." The judge explained the pur­pose of the newly organised body of young men stating that it was design­ed to give the city and the state an efficiently working body for the di­rection of home defense work.

The Loyalty bureau cW Fargo, Is an "annex" to the Fargo Commercial club whleh has become the base of all the patriotic organisations of the city. The question was raised' as to what disposition would be made of the funds, the president statlqg that they

.would be.used in building up a home j defense and working shoulder to shoulder with the Bed Cross and oth­er patrtette organisations.

] one of the features in connection i with' the organisation of the league .will be the speakers to be heard be­tween the first and the second shews In the motion picture houses eaek eve­ning.* who will explain government
