At the request of the state food administrator, the Thompson Falls Mercantile Co. has furnished the fol- lowing schedule of wholesale prices, covering the articles the government desires to conserve, the idea being that. by comparison with the retail prices the consumer will understand that excessive profits are not being made. - Retail merchants are under strict segulations -as to prices charged and qttanities sold to consumers, and vio- lation of these restrictions may sub- ject _them to an absolute embargo so that . they would have to go out of business. These rules are especially strict regarding flour and sugar. ' It is a hard matter to regulate the individual consumer, but it is thought that a clearer understanding of what is being asked and what is being done will arouse a patriotic effort toward co-operation. The present wholesale, •aail-restail prices are as follows: Wholesale Retail . Sugar, per hundred $8.60 $10.00 Flour, 49 lbs.

We, the jury find that the de- ceased Benjamin J. Soule came to his death Friday, January 25, 1918. at his home near Deep Creek, Sanders county, Montana, from a blow on the head and a gunshot wound in the left leg, at the hands of Arthur J. Soule. Since the story of the coroner's inquest appearing on another page was put'I type and made ready ?or the press, We have been informed by E. T. MeCaffery that the verdict of the jury is no longer confidential since the arrest of Arthur J. Soule. Froth sensational stories appearing in some of the daily papers, it would appear that there was something mys- terious 'and unusual about a secret verdict, but such is, -not the case. It . is customary whenever the person implicated is not under arrest to keep the findings secret until a warrant can 'be issued and served, to avoid giving him an opportunity to make his escape. B.
