far behind Both Lock and Armstrong had only secured 3 votes fiom Selz
township, while their opponent each had 68 votes. Brindle fared little bet-
ter with 25 of the Selz votes, while his opponent led with 47 votes.
Van Beck and Cotton were obviOusly not getting their money’s worth
in the election, especially since few Russian voters could make it to the
polls
in the first place. \Vrth their conspiracy revealed by the Reporter, it
would
be difficult to get the money back legally. According to the Reporter,
“The
law is plain and the penalties severe where money is paid for any purpose
in exchange for votes.” But, if the penalties were not severe enough, Van
Beck and Cotton would have to watch as their bribe money was used for
something Other than the church; the Russian settlers had decided before
the election that the bribe money was to be used for a grand New Year’s
cel-
ebration. It was not reported if Van Beck and Cotton, who inadvertently
fi-
nanced the celebration, would be invited.
' ‘ ' 'Jim Jam Jems
Dakota Datebook. written by Tessa Sandstrom
November 9, 2021 — Sometimes the truth hurts, and even offends, but
that didn’t stop Sam Clark and CH. Crockard, publishers of “Jim Jam
Jems”
from writing the truth in a blatant manner. -
The magazine’s forward warned of the material enclosed in “Jim Jam
Jems’s” colorful cover: “Here in the confines of this little
booklet, we can
say that which appeals to us, without fear of the result...Here we will let
our
imagination run riot;...we intend to write just whatever we damn please and
say just as much....Kind reader have a care; if you are one of those
‘holier-
than-thou’ individuals who dislike plain unvamished truth, then delve no
farther into this volume, for what is written here may shock your immor-
tal soul, may shatter your faith in humanity and forever damn you—damn
you.” ,
The publication was widely read, but at least one
“holier—than—thou” in-
dividual delved too deep. Today in 1912, Clark and Crockard were indict-
ed by the federal grand jury in Fargo for sending “obscene and immoral”
reading matter in interstate mail. Meanwhile, news dealersthroughout the
state and in Minneapolis and St. Paul were also being arrested for selling
the publication “Jim Jam Jems”, however, continued “selling like
hot-cakes,”
and Clark and Crockard continued publishing‘the bOOkIet throughout the
trials. .
Clark and Crockard contended the guilty conviction. The publishers in-
sisted that the publication was in no way obscene andeven helped bring sev-
eral people to justice through exposure in the ' e. Their mission, they
said, “was the cleaning up of some of the filthiness existing in the
country.”
For them, the magazine was just political and social commentary. Their
corn-
mentary, however, often turned to those in charge, whether it was the
church
or political officials. To the state, however, the publication was
obscene, and
the District Attorney ’s intention Was to protect the home by putting the
pub-
lishers out of business. .
For the next five years, Clark and Crockard contended the conviction,
and the trials often flopped back and forth between guilty and not guilty.
The
legal battle finally ended December 1917 when they were found guilty.
“Jim Jam Jems” continued 'to circulate, however, and Clark and
Crockard retained the colorful voice in later issues. Clark later moved to
Min-
neapolis, and began taking on other endeavors. He spent less time on
publication, and the August 1929 issue was the last of “Jim Jam Jems”.

Bidding and viewing openedibnline a week prior, leading up to the big
: show, the live auction. Before the day had even begun, $10, 000 had al-
ready been raised. Quilts were shown in groups of five, with bidding open
for 6 minutes each round. Bids Were made online using the Givesmart plat-
form. While the auction started off with some technical difficulties, all
was
made well by their own “tech guru”, Kyle Rydell, who is also the
camp’s
Associate Program Director. Emceed by Rebecca Kjelland and Board Chair-
man, Gary Helland, each quilt was individually shown off, with some hav-
ing amazing backstories. Like “Penguin Dance”, donated in memory of
Rev—
erend Justin Johnson, a former PRBC camper, counselor and donor. Justin
and his wife Melissa met at camp, serving together as counselors.
Executive Director of Park River Brble Camp, Rebecca Kjellandhas been
involved, in some way or another, with the quilt auction for 15 years. “I
am always grateful and humbled to see all the wonderful people who sup—7
port this ministry.” Thiscouldn’t have been accomplished without the
help
of camp staff, volunteers, board of directors and most important, the
church-
es and community who support the camp all year round. Because of their
support, PRBC raised just over $30,000!
Quilts and silent auction items can be picked up at the camp Monday-
Friday, 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. Items can be shipped by contacting the of-
fice at (701) 284—6795. "

CRYSTAL, N.D. — It has
been a busy fall here at the Valley-
Edinburg Middle School. Stu-
dents have been working hard in
fall sports, and the junior high vol-
leyball season just wrapped up this
week. Congrats to all players on
a good season! Continuing the
busy fall, Student Council mem-
bers have been volunteering with
the Pembina County Backpack
food drive preparing food to be
sent home to students each week.
It has been a great experience for
our students to see programs such
as these in our community.‘
'The 7th grade in particular
has been busy balancing ex-
tracurricular activities and school
work. Student Council has been
very active in the school helping
create activities for the entire stu—
dent body to participate in. This
past Friday as an example, they or-
ganized a fun assembly with Hal-
loween themed games... On the
schoolwork side of things, the 7th
grade social studies class has
been busy working through World
Geography. Recently, they have
embarked on a two-week project
where they are illustrating a map
of South America by hand, our
current unit topic. It’s always fim
seeing their artistic sides with
the finished product, as it also
tends to help them remember
countries and features of South
America as well. They will con-
tinue to move from continent to
continent as the year progresses,
learning about a place’s geography
and culture.
I hope everyone continues to
have a safe fall and enjoys the last
few days of good weather before
the usually dreaded first snow hits!

Iran-contra scandal, and President George W. Bush’s obfuscation about the
rationale for invasion of Iraq.
Trump’s act of stonewalling the January 6 Select Committee and the likely
burial of the truth of the actors
who led and organized the insurrection would rank as one of the darkest
days in the history of the nation.
The pernicious effects of executive secrecy have not deterred advocates of
executive privilege from as—
serting its central importance to the president’s performance of his
constitutional responsibilities, partic-
ularly in matters of national security and foreign affairs. Yet advocates
of executive privilege have been
unable to document instances in which resort to executive privilege has
served the interests of the nation.
Nor have they been able to document any national disasters that have
resulted from executive transmis-
sion of information to Congress.
There are a good many_ reasons to doubt both the constitutionality and the
utility of executive privilege.
When the concept of a constitutionally based executive privilege was
created by the judiciary in United
‘ States v. Nixon, in 1974, it was said to be grounded in the separation
of powers. Proponents of executive
privilege have also sought its justification in historical precedents. In
truth, both of these efforts to estab-
lish the legality of executive privilege rest on flimsy scaffolding. We
turn, next week, to these arguments
and to the decision in the Nixon case, which opened a Pandora’s box and
unleashed an executive power
on the nation that has wreaked havoc on our constitutional system ever
since.
