Biller Denunciation of Liquor Traffic By a Fargo Jurist

Fargo, N. D., Feb. 4. Robert Hendrickson, convicted wife killer, walked from the district court to begin a life sentence in the state penitentiary after Judge Pollock denounced liquor traffic as a key factor. Hendrickson pled guilty to murdering his wife, leaving two young children motherless, with two deputy sheriffs aiding his movement. The judge condemned the liquor trade and held the liquor seller morally complicit, urging reparations and warning against further similar crimes. The public, shaken by the case, heard a stern call for legal reform and cautions about conscience and responsibility. Perry Kistler of Clayton township, the potato king, reported about 2000 bushels of seed spuds in his cellar with plans to ship carloads soon. Prices are rising in Kansas City and Minneapolis.

Canadian farmers and merchants in North Portal formerly patronizing American banks must place deposits in nearby Canadian banks.
