Wold "block. The I laze having got headway from the iurnace room and had succeeded in eating its way upward through the floor of the dining room and kitchen of the Brunswick Cafe of J. M. Wy ren, where the fire and the immense volume of smoke left little if any chance to salvage any of the equip ment, or the stock, which at this sea son of the year is larger than or dinarily carried. Mr. Wyren carried insurance to the amount of $1000, but figures his loss at $1500. In its advance from the rear to the front of the building the fire again fought its way through to the second floor in the music salesroom of the A. O. Wold Co,, and was not got under subjection until after a number of fine pianos and high grade talking machines were datnaged by fire.twater and smoke to the extent /that they ate a total loss. There will, however, be a comparatively light loss orf Mr. Wold's stock of watches, clocks, jewelry and other' lines of trade. It took two hours of a stubborn fight before the fire was put beyond the danger point and the basement partly submerged in about four feet of water, the entire block bearing evidence of having been the scene of a bad fire. The extent of Mr Wold's IOBS can hardly be arrived at urftil the adjusters have been here. A number of young men.who have rooms there were nearly "overcome by the smoke in getting out.

Fast, of Mos cow township of the death at Morris, Manitoba, of Jacob Toews, one oft the first cf the early day pioneers of western CaValier county, who had reached the ripe old age of eighty four years after being an infirm and helpless invalid since being seized with a paralytic stroke about a year ago. Since coming to the county in 1837, deceased has resided here con tinuously except for a short interval spent in Oklahoma and the last two years at the Morris, Man., home of his son, Peter Toews. There sur vives two daughters, and three sons, also a widow, his second wife. The funeral held Tuesday afternoon at Morris, was attended by a number of old friends on this side of the line as well as all the -immediate members of the^family, excepting his son C. W. Toews, who for some years past has been located at Littlefield, Texas, with his family Townley Here With Air Plane Monday was anything but a dull day in Langdon, In the afternoon the Nonpartisan League organization had an everfiow meeting in the Audi torium, where there was a large delegated precinct representation from over the county here at the call of County Organizer J, L. Richard son to complete the plans of organi zation for the campaign which closes with the election of November 2nd. It was a business meeting for mem bers of^the League, but the attend ance filled the seating capacity of the lower floor of the Auditorium. It was no doubt due to the announ cement that Hon A C. Townley. the organizer of the League' ijtas to be here that brought hundreds of peo ple here from over the entire length and breadth of the county to be given the last word of" the campaign to league workers and -voters before go ing to the polls.

The county offices are now on a non-party ballot, but there is one po litical faction that seems either in tentionally or otherwise to ignor this, particularly so in the case of Mr. Dorval, by circulating among voters tickets on which hiB name has been omitted. The attempt to mislead and deceive the voter was a clumsy one and has angered those whom it was supposed to dupe in a way that is sure to re-act on election day. To quote our friend "Jefty" O'Connor, '"gentlemen be fair." Merchant Robillard's Big Sale Merchant Robillard was a bueiness visitor here yesterday from Olga and left with the Farmers Press the copy for a half page display adver tisement that will be printed in the next two issues of this paper calling attention to the immense stock reduc tion sale that is making slashing cuts in the high prices that have been constantly going up since the pre-war days. All lines are being sacrificed at from 15 to 30 per cent. Watch for price quotations at the reduction sale of the Robillard store at Olga, in this paper next week.

Frazier With Others of Note, The campaing tour of Hon. H. E. Behrens, in Cavalier county covers the entire week preceding the elec tion of Tuesday and the schedule in cludes meetings held at fourteen dif ferent points over the county. The speaker, Mr. Behrens, is one of the active Nonpartisan League, men who have been associated with it right from its organization up to the pres ent time. He edited the league pa per, the North Dakota Leader at the time it started and as a writer and platform talker is recognized as one of the leading exponents of the prin ciples of the league and the work it has already accomplished, The dates and places of meeting of his tour covering this county are Monday, October 25th: Union, at 1:30 p. m. Milton, at 4:00 p. m, Osnabrock Twp., at 8:00. Tuesday, October 26th: Mt. Carmel, at 1:30 p, m. Fremont Twp., at 4:00 p. m. Olga, at 8:00 p. m. Wednesday, October 27th: Dresden at 2:00 p. m.

Saturday, October 30th: Saturday evening at eight o'clock, a non-parti3an league meeting will be held in the court room at the Court House, the speakers of the evening being Hon. John Hagan, secretary of agriculture and labor, Miss Ruth Johnson, candidate for state superintendent of schools, and Mrs. George S. Loftus, a prominent atate organizer of the women voters of the league. Those of the party over the county know the convincing way in which Mr. Hagan presents what he has to tell the people and his prominence in the carrying out 01 the nonpartisan industrial program makes the people generally desirous •of hearing what he has to say. With The Presbyterian Church Wm. C. Faucette, Minister •m Misa Johnstou and Mrs. Loftus, both billed as speakers there should be quite a large number of ladies in the audience. Be there on time as the seating capacity is sure to be overcrowded. On Monday, November 1st, the eve of election day, Governor Lynn J. Frazier will bring his campaign to a close in a meeting to be held in this county at Milton the,-hour of the meeting being called for.^ eight o'clock and this in all likelihood will be the occasion of a political gather ing from over the county that for size and enthusiasm has never before gathered in that town. The governor will be accompanied by Miss Afhild Alfson, a candidate of the league for secretary of state. The meeting is one that is destined to awaken all in the south end of the county to what the league and its rapidly growing membership can and are doing in the shaping of the politics of this eounty and state. To San Benito by Auto Trip Thos. Ulloytt and wife, accom panied by their neice. left Sunday on an overland trip south tOxSan Benito, Texas to Bpend the winter. Jas. Gor don and Claude Skinner were also of the party and the trip will be taken by auto in easy stages, expecting to reach their destination in about ten days or a couple of weeks -v" WuT'- FARMERS PRESS CANDIDATE FOR OFFICIAL COONTY PAPER In accordance with the state law, which provides for the selection of an official newspaper in each county of North Dakota, by a vote of the electorate, the Cavalier County Far mers PresB has had its name placed on the ballot by the county auditor, as a candidate for the naming by the voters at the general election of November 2na, as the official paper of Cavalier county. Owned and operated as it is by approximately two hundred farmers of this county, each one of whom is spending more than $2,000. every twelve months, this newspaper re presents a purchasing power of at least $500,000 annually. These stockholders patronize home business almost exclusively, keeping their money circulating in the community of which they form a part. This is one of the reasons given as showing that the Cavalier County Farmers Presa merits the support of all fair minded voters. Another unanswerable reason why the Farmers Press—your newspaper —should be chosen official county publication is because of its complete freedom from the corrupt influences of gang politician domination, which admittedly the curse of the Ameri can people at this critical period in the history of our country.

s»v PACJE TWO m: 4 ifiSY COAL SHIPMENTS BEHIND SCHEDULE Northwest Dock Compauies Are Short For Alleged Failure To Buy At Lake Erie Ports. N. W. SUPPLY REDUCED Coal Companies Must Keep Docks Cleared or Interstate Commerce Commission Will Cancel Prior ity Order, Says McGee. Washington—Failure of Northwest Dock companies to buy coal at Lake Erie ports has held dumpings at these ports to less than S,500 cars for the lirst three days of the week or more than 1,500 behind the schedule, ac cording to a report made to the Amer ican Car service commission by Her man Griggs, commission, representa tive at Cleveland. Dock Companies Blamed. At the same time, Mr. Griggs re ported 9,777 cars of coal at port and 4,858 en route from the mines. Dump ings, which are supposed to be 4,001 cajcg daily were 2,546, Monday, 3,098, Tuesday and 2,800 estimated for Wed nesday. Full blame for this condition wto.3 put on the dock companies by Mr. Griggs, according to Judge John F. JMcGee, Minnesota coal commis sioner, wlio was given the figures by the car service commission. *'iTlris is a very dangerous situa tion/' Judge McGee said. "It is lead ing straight toward a cancellation of priority order No. 10. The Northwest coal companies must keep the docks cleared at lake Erie ports or the In terstate Commerce Commission will abrogate its order and send the coal elsewhere. There is no time to waste. Order 20 goes into effect Firday of this week and from the information I have the dock companies must dump the 4,000 cars daily allotted to the Northwest or the Commission will act." The Northwest will be short 2,710, 723 tons the coal it had last year even, if the 4,000 cars a day is maintained for the remaining thirty-four days of Order 10, Judge McGee said. At the present rate of shipments under Or der 10 the shortage will be 3,997,523. Dumpings averaging 5,000 cars a day will be necessary to give the North west as much coal as it had last year and then it would be short about 5,000, 000 tons the amount it had the last normal year, which was 1918. That year the total available supply was 29.73.^,125 tons. MUCH SEIZID LIQUOR MISSING Many Cases of Confiscated Whisky Mysteriously Disappear. Fargo, N. D.—Another sensation fol lowing closely the arrest of Robert B. L'eady, prohibition group chief for North Dakota, on a charge of con spiracy and importation of liquor, came when Paul D. Keller of Minneapolis, northwest division prohibition chief, announced that many cases of confis cated whisky are missing from the Fargo office. He declared the condition of the Far go office bad and that he came here to straighten things out. He said he will endeavor to locate the missing liquor. GIRL IS BEATEN TO DEATH Minneapolis Girl Attacked Near Home While Returning From Work. Minneapolis—Dorothy Bowers, 17 years old, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. J. xiowers, 4902 Humboldt avenue north, was found in a clump of bushes near her home by passersby. Her head had been crushed in by a large stone, which was found, covered with blood.'near her form. She was rushed to the General hospital, but died with in an hour of her enti'ance. Miss Bowers was employed at the North west Knitting Mills, Western avenue, and had left for her home unaccom panied, fellow workers said. ANOTHER DRY AGENT IN JAIL Man Involved in "Rum Rebellion" Case Accused of Smuggling. Marquette, Mich.—John E. Fillion, Federal prohibition agent, working un der Group Chief Leo J. Grove, who made liquor seizures that resulted in the "rum rebellion" at Iron River early in the year, was arrested on a Federal warrant charging him with mal feasance in office and the illegal trans portation of whisky. He was arraigned before United States Commissioner H. 6. Hatch and released under $2,000 bonds. Mrs. Ogden Mills Dies. New York—Word was received here of the death in Paris of Mrs. Ogden Mills, for many years prominent in so ciety in New York, Newport and Paris. Bandits Get Payroll. St. Paul—Automobile bandits held up the main office of the South Park Foundry, Concord street and Thomp son avenue, and escaped with $1,800— the week's payroll of the company, af ter lining up officials of the company and customer against the wall at the point df pistols.

SEEK TO FORM A UNITEDRUSSIA Proposed Federation Will Be a Practical Restoration of the Kerensky Government. U. S. TO GIVE SUPPORT New Republic Will Consist of White Ruthenia, the Entire Ukraine and All Territory Now Held By General Wrangel. Washington—A new and powerful federation by which White Ruthenia, the entire Ukraine, all the CossaclC ter ritory between the sea of Azov and the Volga, and all the territory now held by General Wrangel will be organized into the United States of Russia, will shortly be announced, it was learned officially. The territory thus em braced includes approximately three sevenths of European Russia. The first president of the new repub lic, it is expected here, will be Gen eral Wrangel. He will have approxi mately 350,000 troops, the most for midable army ever assembled to com bat Lenin and Trotzky. General Wrangel will also have the active co operation of General Seminoff, now in command of a large force in Siberia. U. S. Inspectors Sent. So intense is the interest of the Uni ted States in General Wrangel that it sent Admiral Newton A. McCully and Col. W. A. Castle to inspect his entire front. They have just returned to Constantinople. The political result of the proposed new federation, it was explained in of ficial circlep here, will be the practical restoration of the Kerensky govern ment under a more popular name. That government is the only one the United States has recognized since the days of the czar. Soviet Government Near Collapse. The United States and the Allies are convinced that the psychological mo ment for the success of.such a federa tion has now arrived. The Lenine and Trotzky government is believed to be on the verge of collapse. Information received by this govern ment indicated that the Russian army, recently defeated by the Poles, is re fusing to fight against General Wran gel. The entire soviet forces are said to be rapidly disintegrating. That all the great powers are active ly supporting the proposed new gov ernment is made clear by the fact that within the past few days the entire Al lied diplomatic corps in Peking has compelled China to restore Prince Ku dacheff, the Kerensky ambassador, to full power ias the official representative of Russia. This significant move was made after China had shorn Prince Kudacheff of all official recognition and virtually ordered him and all the other Kerensky officials out of the country. Baron Wrangel, it was pointed out, is a conservative of the conservatives. He was an officer in the czar's army. Later he supported Kerensky. When Kolchak, an ardent monarchist, was removed Wrangel succeeded him. Wrangel's only rival for chief execu tive of the proposed new republic Is Persident Petlura of the Ukraine. He represents peasant class. It is under stood. however, that he is content to remain in the class over which he now presides. SAYS PRICES ARE RECEDING Houston Tells Farmers He Will Not Help Maintain High Prices. Washington Secretary Houston reiterated to representatives of agri cultural interests in conference here that the Treasury would not be a party to the withholding of any commodity from the market in order to maintain artificially high prices. Spokesmen for the delegation were frank in their criticism of Mr. Hous ton's recent statement that prices had begun to recede but the secretary told them as frankly that his statement properly represented conditions. The delegation sought mainly to have the Treasury revive the war finance corporation, arguing that through it they would be able to ob tain funds to finance exports which they claimed were falling off, creating a stagnant market. Italy Proclaims Amnesty. Rome—Italy proclaimed an amnesty for all political and military crimes committed prior to September 19,1919. The act practically exempts all desert ers from the Italian army from suffer ing the customary punishment. Wanamaker is President. Tokyo—John Wanamaker of Phila delphia was elected President of the World's Sunday School Association by the convention of that organization here. To Quiz Gin Burning Threats. Columbia, S.

FARMERS HAUL GRAIN TO N. DJLEVATOR Wilkin Sod Busters Save Over $7 Per Load In Dockage. A TRIBUTETO N. P. L, Minnesota Star Jounces a Stinging Dart at the Enemies of the Farmer-Labor Pro gram. Farmers of Wilkin county, Minne sota, have saved from $7 to $0 a load In some instances by hauling their grain to the North Dakota side of the Eed and Bois de Sioux rivers for sale. The saving is especially large where the dockage is heavy in wild oats. In commenting upon the decision of Wilkin county farmers to haul their grain across the line the Minnesota Star recently said: "The laws which compels grain buyers to pay the market price for the foreign seeds in the 'grain, con stituting the 'dockage,' is one of the 'socialistic' measures of the farmer legislature in North Dakota. The most flagrant abuses in the buying of grain surrounded the custom of 'dock ing' in weight to allow for the wild seeds in grain. By taking an exces sive amount for dockage a grain buyer could allow a grade and a price that apparently were high and still reap unreasonably high profits. Managers of local grain elevators were regularly instructed by line company managers to 'play ,safe' on dockage by taking more than enough. Curbs the Sharpers. "The new North Dakota laws, en acted by a group of visionary and socialistic farmers have made practic ally impossible all the old sharp prac tices in grain buiyirig. And it hasn't taken a horde of politically employed samplers and inspectors to do the work. In North Dakota every elevator manager or buyer of grain must have a state license as a deputy inspector of grain. A single deliberate offense in misgrading or a repetition of mistakes will cost him £is license and close his elevator until a new man can be found "who is satisfactory to take his place. The character and ability of these grain buyers must be certified by farmers with whom they deal. There Is a state grain inspection department which operates merely a testing labor atory and hears complaints, If grain has been misgraded a sample sent to the state laboratory will tell the story, and Mr. Grain Buyer will have to show good reason why his place shouldn't be closed up. "It is a simple system, but suffi cient. They don't cheat "in buying wheat in North Dakota any more since the first few suffered the penalties of the law. 'Dockage' seeds are valuable feed. They used to constitute the 'velvet' of the trade. Their quality is no longer guessed at in North Dakota, but it is accurately calculated and the market value of tfie dockage is paid tft the farmer, "The ease of dockage in North Da kota is merely an item indicating what It means to the farmers to have their interests represented in the state gov ernment, rather than the interests of grain dealers exclusively. In North Dakota they have not used their polit ical advantage to cheat anybody. They have used it merely to enforce hon esty in the grain market." Whether you like A. C. Townley or not, you^must admit that he can pan the plutocrals from the platform as ironically as any other speaker on this side of Kingdom Come. The Independent Voters association is essentially and fundamentally noth ing more than a Union of Twin City Grain Dukes and I'aid North Dakota Lackeys organized for the purpose of attempting to recapture this state from the Common People, reduce Htbor to a condition ol' abject servitude, farm the farmers and cut the salaries of office men, because of greatly in creased overhead expense.

CHINA REPUBLIC FALLS Report Says Peking Government Overthrown. General Chang Tsao-Lin, Military Lea der, Declared to Have Proclaimed Monarchy. Washington—Rumors in Shang hai that the Peking government had been overthrown are believed by officials here to be disposed of by a message received at the White House from President Hsu Shih Chang, president of the Chi nese republic. Shanghai—General Chang Tsao-Lin, governor of Feng-Tien, has overthrown the Peking government and proclaimed a monarchy, according to a report cur rent in this city. The rumor has not been authenticated, and no details have been received here, but Chinese officials have been profoundly stirred by it. General Chang Tsao Lin probably was the strongest military leader dur ing the receot conflict between, the Chili-Anfu parties. He played a lead ing part during that trouble and was accused of being a tool of the Jap anese. It is the supposition here that the coup, if it really has taken place, is an effort to restore to the throne former Emperor Hsuan-Tung, son of Prince Chun. General Li Shun, commander of Chi nese troops in the province of Kiaggsu and Kiangsi, and leader of a powerful political clique, committed suicide at Nanking by shooting himself. The text of his will declared his action was due to developments at Peking and the failure of measures he had advocated for the "salvation of the na tion."

MILLION MEN AFFECTED Exportation of Coal from Great Birtain Halted—Other European Nations to Feel Fuel Pinch With England. Loftdon—The British coal strike, which is foreseen as one of the most tremendous demonstrations of labor's power the world has ever seen, went into effect at the close of the day's work Saturday. Eleventh-hour efforts to prevent the men from going out have failed. The government heads and the mine lead ers conferred and when the meeting was over executives of the miners sent out the strike order telegrams. The official statement on the subject said: "In view of the government's unsat isfactory reply, the districts have been notified by telegraph to cease work. It was predicted that the strike may last six weeks. There is a possibility that the railway men may join. The government, too, is prepared for a showdown. The first step in defense was taken when the exportation of coal from Great Britain was halted Non-British vesels coming to British ports will not be permitted to coal Inventory of Coal on Hand. The next several days will be used in making an inventory of the coal on hand. When this is completed some arrangement will be made to coal the mail-carrying ships of foreign nations British shiping will not be interfered with by the order. Thousands of automobile owners al ready have offered their machines to the government for use if rail trans portation fails because of lack of fuel, should the railway men join in the strike. Coastwise ships are being mobilized and hundreds of airplanes have been made available. There is to be an immediate ration ing of food staples. Due to the order forbidding coal shipments the strike will be felt almost as quickly in France, Spain. Holland, Belgium and the other European coun tries as in England.

THECAVALIER COUNT* FARMERS PRESS, HO RED IT, OCTOBEK 21, 1920 WHEN AIRPLANE MOTOR BALKS Overhauling of Engine Very In teresting Process.. GREATEST OF CARE IS TAKEN Friendly Rivalry Between Different Departments In Trying to Get Some thing on the Other Serves to Pro mote Efficiency—Parts Are Carefully Inspected and Tested in Each Sec tion Before Motor Gets Final O. K. When an airplane motor stops some thing always happens—if the motor is in a plane llying at any attitude. Many a witty story has been told by pilots and ground men in reply to the ques tion: "What happens if the motor stops?" To follow a motor through the nu merous brandies of the aviation re •pair depot at Montgomery, Ala., and attempt to grasp what is done to it in an actual overhaul is a very interest ing process. The overhaul of an airplane motor is described as follows, in a statement authorized by Maj. Gen. Charles T. Menclier, director of the air service, himself an expert mechanic: Overhauling a Motor. "Upon its arrival on the field the motor is checked and is immediately given a work order to guide it on its way, and make possible a careful rec ord of its repair and cost. It is first taken to the dismantling room, care fully taken to pieces and transferred s|o tht# wash rack and washed with kerosene and gasoline. All carbon is removed and the pistons are carefully polished to remove all roughness, that carbon might not adhere so readily. From the waslirack it is transferred to the inspection room, where it is given a most thorough inspection Parts which are worn or damaged to such an extent that they cannot be re placed are immediately salvaged. Parts that are repairable are trans ferred, where the necessary repairs are made, and returned again to the in spector. A triplicate list of all parts repaired and condemned is made, one following the motor, one going to the engineer officer, and one is kept on record in the inspection room. After the motor is passed by the inspectors, the stock-chaser checks up by tjie in spection report the parts which have been condemned, and draws from stock new parts to take their places, lie also draws a complete set of ga» kels for every motor, and tries to de» liver the motor to the motor assembly department as nearly complete as pos sible. "The"motor now becomes the prop erty of the motor assembly depart ment. It has gone safely through the inspectors and all parts are supposed to be in perfect condition, but the me chanic has a perfect right to reject from his motor any part which he finds faulty. There is friendly rivalry be tween the two departments, the me chanic, as a rule, loves to 'hang some thing" on the inspection department Thus a double inspection is developed. In this department the bearings are reamed and scraped, all bearings test ed by dial indicator tests for clear ance, valves ground and tested for leaks. Cylinder blocks which have been drawn from stock and valverf which have passed ^lie factory inspec tor's test, after assembly are often found leaky and do not come up to A. It. D. test.

Ready for Test. "The motor is now ready for test, and again becomes the property of the inspection and test department. This is where they try to hang the crepe on the motor repair. If the motor is rejected a report is made by the test block section, giving reason for rejection and suggesting the rem edy if possible. A report is made by the chief of motor repair of what was found wrc-.g, and the correction made. block test the motor is tagged 'O. K.,' the tag showing R. P. M., running time, oil pressure and the kind of pro peller used. Here again it becomes the property of the engine repair. If the engine is to be placed at once in a plane it pa'sses to the final assembly, but if its destination is unknown the intake and exhaust ports are closed, cylinders filled with oil, the entire motor sprayed with a protective coat ing of cosmoline applied rapidly at^} 'efficiently with an ingenious air gun' and is then ready for shipment, or for storage, leaving the aviation repair depot in either case a thoroughly re built, inspected, tested and, in the case of a rotary, properly reusscd motor."

VERA CRUZ WORTH VISITING Mexican City Has a Number of At tractions That Invite the Wandering Tourist. Vera Cruz is a city of contrasts. Its vividly painted houses of red, blue and yellow, built close to the narrow streets, have grated windows and heavy, forbidding doors, which give little evidence of the charming inte riors with their patios, palm-shaded, filled with exotic flowers and cooled by fountains. Modern street cars look out. of place in the same streets with burros laden with merchandise, fruits and vege- I tables, and ciiballeros in Iheir broad I sombrero's, vividly colored blankets, Another point of interest is the an cient fortress of San ,Tuan d'TJlloa, which is built on an island, connected to the mainland at the northern end by a long sea wall.

The weather man has co-partners in the prediction of a bad season in the wild animals who qualify as weather prophets for the experienced out-of-doors man. "Trappers believe firmly in the abil ity of wild animals to forecast weath er conditions." says the Hunter-Trad er-Trapper, published in Columbus, O. "Tin type of house which the musk rat builds for the season indicates the kind of weather lie expects. When tin muskrats build large houses, with thicker walls, a cold winter is to be expected. If 11." houses are made un usually high, much snow and high wa ter will come. ".Tust before a storm, all animals are unusually active and travel fast, and far. Even human beings notice a difference in their feelings just be fore a storm, especially if they are troubled with rheumatism or other ail ments of a like nature. "It is reasonable that nature has provided animals with a sixth sense for forecasting weather conditions which mean so much to them." Desert Compensations. For all the toll the desert takes of man it gives compensations, deep breaths, deep sleep, and the com munion of the stars. It comes upon one with new force in the pauses of the night that the Chaldeans were a desert-bred people. It is hard to es cape the sense of mystery as the stars move in the wide, clear heavens to risings and settings unobscured. They look large and near and palpitant, as if they moved on some stately serv ice, not needful to declare. Wheel ing to their appointed stations in the sky, they make the poor world-fret of no account. Of no account you who lie out there watching, nor the lean coyote that stands off in the scrub from you and howls and howls.—Mary Austin, in "The Land of Little Rain." Not a Stickup. While motoring in' Tennessee on a lonely road one night we were being 'followed in a machine containing five colored men.

Instead of continu ing on. they stopped directly in front of us, and when one big black fellow asked us to stop our hearts were al most at a standstill. However, we breathed easier when he said: "Will you-all be so kind as to let us have a little gas? We sho'"can't make it to town, fo' we am about out."—Ex change. American Pearls.

WHY YOU VOTE FOR FHAZIER Because under his administration North Dakota has made the greatest forward strides in legislation on be half of the common people, ever made in the hiatory of this or any other state, within a like period of time. Because the pledges made by him to tbe people betore election were kept after election. Look back into state history and see how many governors lived up to the platform upon which they were elected. Be cause under his administration the people of this state now have: Public officials bonded at cost, with the money in the state treasury Fire and tornado insurance on all public buildings at cost, with the money in the state treasury, instead of in the hands of insurance agents and companies. State aid to firouth sufferers—the seed and feed bonding act and—"cow bill" aiding farmers to start dairy farming. Hail insurance at 28 cents an acre that the line insurance companies charged 77 cents an acre for—a sav ing of $6,000,000 to the farmers who insured. The home building act, making it easy to own a home and just as easy to pay for it. Workman's compensation act, in suring lives and limbs of workers against death and mutilation mini wage and eight hour day for women protection to railroad men against unfair working conditions. State mined lignite coal, when the people would have perished with out fuel. Twenty nine cents out of every dollar cf state taxes for education. Fifteen cents out of every dollar for state penal and charitable in stitutions Thirty-nine and one half cents, out of every dollar of state taxes for soldiers' bonus. Less than twenty cents out of each "dollar of state taxes for running the state government. For 1920, in spite of increasing the soldiers' bonus levy $663,000, a reduction of $828,853, has been made in the state tax levy—a de crease of 22 per cent. This in ad dition to a reduction of the assessed valuation of farm property and a corresponding increase4 in the assess ed valuation of -city property, leaving the assessed valuation the same as it was in the previous year, 1919, Wo other governor and no other ad ministration could ever come to the people with a record of accomplish­ ments snch aa this. No other gover nor ever was called upon to undergo the slander and abuse that Lynn J. Frazier has had poured out upon him. yet no governor ever sat in Bismarck whose honor and integrity was so generally accepted, or whose honesty and sincerity was so universally ac knowleged. No other governor has launched such a program, amid such and without flinching, evasion or pussyfooting carried it to such a suc cessful termination. That ia why you and thousands of other men and women in North Da kota will vote for Lynn J. Frazier on November 2nd. That is why he will be re-elected by the people of North Dakota. WHY WOMEN SHOULD VOTE Some may not feel friendly toward the idea of a woman in politics. But what does it matter if it be a man or a woman if she or he will do the things we want done? Many women wanted and asked for chevote some did not want it, and oppose it saying the home is the place for women and not dabbling in politics. Why should women vote? Is it be cause they are wiser, smarter and better voters or more patriotic than than the men. No. Most women will make no such claims, but will humbly admit their ignorance and will ask to be taught. Did you ever hear of many men acknowledging their ignorance? Women own property, pay taxes, etc., why shouldn't they be interest ed in politics? The day of political courtesy has passed. If you value your citizenship, use it on November 2nd. Urge your mother, sister and friends to get out and use their's. Organize your women and see that they get out and vote. Men and women are realizing as never before, that there must be a new civic conscience. That we must work together, not for a party plat form or political victory, but for the welfare of humanity. We are sick of promises and faithless servants. Let us get out on November 2nd and elect men and women to office who will carry out their promises. Women are consumers, users and tenants ra ther than producers and makers. Al ways ready to help correct the legal ized wrongs, for which man is re sponsible. Women vote in terms of human life rather than in terms of special privilege. They must help to put an end to some of the exist ing conditions help to check ths chaos and human waste that now exists and is at present in volved in the industrial life of the entire civilized world, ThiB.can be done only by law—by statute law— by law bearimg the seal of the gov ernment. Men and women must co operate with the men to hasten the the correction of these mistakes of government as they at present ex ist as the system is one that brings suffering to one and all, Women voters of the League will you stay at home on Tnesday No vember 2nd and allow men and wo to be elected to office who have been pledged to obey the mandates of the §g Si PWi WILL.AM JLEMKE Candidate for Attorney General kali*, North Dakota political dictators in the Twin Cities.

REALLY NO GREAT MYSTERY Though at First It Did Seem Remark able Where Those Boy Soouts Were Coming From. Now there are boy scout stunts and boy scout stunts, but it took a Torre Haute troop to put over the best one. It was at a meet at the First Baptist church, and they were illustrating au early morning at their summer camp, Kinneumapoose. The scenery, except for a small pup tent, was the regular church furniture. But still the audi ence could stretch its imagination enough to make the scene effective. The first streak of dawn was an nounced, and then slowly there emerged from the pup tent a yawnj ing. stretching scout. A wee interval, and another followed him. Another lapse of time, and another scout emerged from the tent. Then came others until there were 12 on the plat form, and still others were coming. Tho audience was almost incredulous with amazement, forr as every one knows, a pup tent Is so small that it cannot accommodate more than three boys at the limit. Then out started the thirteenth, and evidently he was too sleepy, for he jostled the tent so that it slipped away from its mooring, and there baclZ of it was the entrance to the pool for baptism. The youngsters had been concealed in it and used the tent merely as an entry to the platform.— Indianapolis News. MEANT TO CALL THEM QUICK Aunt Dinah Had No Idea of Allowing for Misunderstanding When She Rang the Bell. Aunt Dinah, plantation born and reared, went to a nearby town to "hire out." She was very promptly hired by a young housewife, who, seeing her lack of familiarity with modern house holds, started to train her. She showed Aunt Dinah her small silver-service bell—there were no elec tric bells in the old-fashioned house— and told' her that when it' was rung she must come into the dining room. 'Aunt Dinah said she understood. A few days later the mistress was seated on the broad veranda with a friend when she heard a tremendous clangor from the direction of the kitchen. It came nearer swiftly and soon identi fied itself as the sound of a large bell. Puzzled, the housewife entered the hall and there stood Aunt Dinah, swinging a large dinner bell vigorous ly. "Why, what on earth Is the mat ter, Aunt Dinah?" she gasped. "Why are you ringing that bell?" "Well, Miss Mary, I thought dat was the way folks called each other in dls here house. Didn't you show me yo' hell the other day? I found dis one in de cupboard and I wanted you right quick in de kitchen, so I rung hit." Labor Savers. At a home in North Delaware street the man of the house gathered two or more bushels of nuts last fall and put them in the attic.

Investigating she found two squirrels rushing around iike mad, trying to get out a closed window. They had gnawed a hole in the roof as large as a grapefruit and had disposed of the whole mess of nuts. The owner said they saved him the trouble of feeding them, for he had gathered the nuts for them.—In dianapolis News. Superstitious Sleuth. "During the windstorm yesterday afternoon," related Constable Sam T. Slackputter, the sagacious sleuth of Petunia, "a sign hoard was blown off'm the front of the Right Place store and hit on the head a gent that was com ing from the depot to deliver the ly ceum course lecture at the op'ry house last night, and knocked him senseless. I d'know as I believe in omens and such things any more thpn the average person, but I couldn't help thinking that when a circumstance like that happens it is a sign of something.— Kansas City Star. Twirling-Arms Dance. "Many new dances were shown at the dancing congress in Paris recent ly. Most of them, however, appeared to lack originality. An exception is the "Tcbega," which is danced to the strains of Hincloo music. The "Tche gfi" would never meet with the ap proval of the British dancing masters, as it Is most unsuitable for the English ballrooms. It consists of fantastic movements in which the arms are twirled round the head while the dancer performs short hesitation.— Daily Mail, London. Measuring Distance in Turkey.

My oudidacy has the «ndirsement of tne farmer* of the j,nooparrnan le,jpa«. Respectfull) Your*, Abe Krahn, /V^ EOR STATES ATTORNEY To the Voters of Cavalier County: Upon my record in the past I ask your support for re-election to the office of States Attorney of Cavalier county on Tuesday, November 2nd, 1920. If elected I will mnder you the same service in the future as in the past, bettered by experience. Respectfully, G. Grimson. Langdon, N. D., Oct., 19, 1920 Election Day, Tuesday, November 2nd, will be here in less than three weeks and the present activity of the candidates will be speeding up somewhat as the day for casting the ballots draws nearsr. Might we suggest that the reader bear in mind that this paper numbers among the candidates that ask your vote and influence at the polls on that day. Through his recent railroad rate injunctions, restraining railway lines operating in North Dakota from add ing to the burdens of the public, WilliamxLemke proved himself to be literally worth his weight in gold to North Dakota citizens. Mark an after his name in the republican col umn on the ballot on November 2, and help make him our next attorney general. Remember John M. Baer, league nominee for congress in this district when you cast your ballot on Tuesday November 2nd. Change the two mid dle letter of Congressman Baer and you get a regular bear. He's a real bruin down at Washington whqp ever big business triss to slip some thing over on the farmers and work ing men. Look for his name in the Individual Nominations columns, Are the women interested in poli tics? We'll say they are Just think of the way that Miss Ruth Johnson is outdistancing Miss Neilson for state superintendent of public instruction, and then observe Miss Alfhild Alfson, the nonpartisan league candidate for secretary cf state. It looks very much as if the I, V. A. will give Miss Alfson a walk over. Placfe an after her name in the Individual Nominations column on the ballot. As sooti as you look at Seth Rich ardson you know he would make a good judge. Mr. Richardson has the' calm deliberate bearing that all members of the judiciary should po ssess. He is neither vindictive or rash in his judgments, and ^hen he is elected supreme court judge. He can be depended upon to temper jus tice with mercy. Vote for Seth Richardson on November 2nd. His name will appear on the nonpartisan election ballot.

JOHNSON Candidate for Superintendent of Public Instruction COMMUNICATION. Editor Farmers Press:— In last week's issue of the Cava lier Co, Republican a challenge was issued by Andrew Murie on the rela tive merits of horses and tractors in furnishing power for plowing, Mr. Murie taking the stand and main taining that the best and cheapeBt werk can be done with horses. Now I would differ with him and the stand taken is based upon my personal experience and having used both horses and tractors in doing thiB and other kinds of farm work. Here are the actual facts as to what I have plowed with my E.-B. tractor and a three bottom plow. My average all fall has been from 17 to 20 acre per day making eighteen rounds in the forenoon and twenty rounds in the afternoon of each day. Approxi mately the amount of gasoline used was twenty gallons a day. I have been in the county since 1895 and have used oxen, horses and tractors and am convinced that the tractor is the best of them all. My plowing ia all completed and the tractor is ia the shed and will not neqd any oats nor care during the winter. I challenge any seven horse outfit to do as much work as my E.-B. Tractor or at the same cost per acre Respectfully Yours, —Frank Chriata. Wales, N. D., Oct., 19th, 1920.

COPYRIGHT BY" THE SYNOPSIS. CHAPTER I.—Never having known his father, and living with his mother on a houseboat on the Wabash river, "The Pearlhunter"—the only name he has— learns from her a part of the story of her sad life. The recital Is Interrupted by a fearful fit of coughing and he hurries ashore to seek a root that affords relief. Returning with the root, he meets a young girl whom he mentally christens the "Wild Rose." She eludes him before he can make her acquaintance. CHAPTER II.—A vacant cabin on the shore has attracted the attention of the ailing woman, and they move into It. Their first meal is Interrupted by a stranger who resents their presence. The youth drives the man from their home. His presence has strangely affected the mother. That night the youth flnda With in a mussel the largest pearl that has been found on the river, the "Blue Moon." Returning exultant to the cabin, he dls canfers his mother dead, she having suc cumbed while endeavoring to leave a ge CHAPTER IV. In the village the "Pearlhunter" sees the girl who had at tracted his attention in the woods. She Is annoyed by the stranger, and the "Pearlhunter" rescues her from his un welcome attentions. He accompanies her to her home. CHAPTER V.—At the house he meets the father of his "Wild Rose," known to the locality as the "Wild Man," mentally Irresponsible as the result of a wound re ceived from a man wearing a red mask, a notorious desperado. The youth de clares his intention of devoting the money he is to get for the pearl to pay ing for a surgical operation which will restore the old man's reason. CHAPTER VI.—In the cabin that night the "Pearlhunter" is aroused from sleep by the stealthy visit of a man who con ceals a red mask in the wall and makes his escape. The "Pearlhunter," mystified, and suspecting foul play, destroys It. Next day Louie Solomon, pearl buyer, purchases the gem for $5,00(i. CHAPTER VII.—Solomon accompanies the youth to his cabin and within a few minutes of their parting the pearl buyer is stabbed and roobed of the gem. The "Pearlhunter" is charged with the mur der and robbery and is saved from lynch ing by the intervention of the sheriff. The mob believes the "Pearlhunter" is the "Rftd Mask." He is confined in the village lockup. Even "the women took up the cry, so great was the terror of his name—the Red Mask—a name that might have stampeded the village. The mob charged him. Bound as he was, he dashed at them. A butt of his shoul der caught the foremost man, a burly blacksmith, on the jaw. He went down like a beef under the mallet. A drive of his head to the pit of the stomach crumpled up another. A well directed kick laid out a third. Ijle fought as the men of his blood had always fought. But what can ofie JjJg hj against many? Wy h! ripped off, his shirt JhE* revealing the secret of his par- message entage. CHAPTER III.—At the village of Fallen Rock, to which he takes the gem for safe keeping, the "Pearlhunter" meets the stranger wfio had disturbed his mother In their cabin, and insults him. They part as bitter enemies. IE HO ON VID ANDERSON tied, 19 bl

get at In" hundred hands still itcfii him. They beat his face his body— wherever a fist or a club could reach him. A stick of stove wood in the hands of a lanky woodchopper laid open an ugly gash acr.oss his head. Half-dazed, he was trying to wink tbo blood and mist out of his eyes when a roar was heard on the out skirts of the crowd, and the stocky form of the old Boss was seen fight ing his way into the circle. He had probably gone up to Fallen Rock, as he had promised the night before, missed the Pearlhunter, and come on to the vyiage. He fought' well, and opened a narrow swath, half-way through the circle to his friend. But Just there somebody struck him above the ear with the flat of a barrel stave. The ripple subsided the swath closed. The Pearlhunter's last friend was down and out. The rope was flung over a limb. Half a hundred hands, some of them women's hands, stretched up ready to pull. Half a hundred hands did pull. The rope tightened—slowly. A hush fell on the mob a hush so deep that the creak of the tightening rope could be distinctly heard. That last final scene, the last stroke that stops a life —it is a solemn moment even to a mob. The Pearlhunter was lifted the last light tips of his toes left the grass flames ran up and down his spine: the world turned black. There came a sudden dash of hoofs, and a man rode straight at the mob. It takes a hardy person to withstand the charge of a horse. The crowd parted. The liorseman reached the dangling man, and with one slash of a huge jackknlfe, cut the rope. The stroke came barely in time. The Pearlhunter, only saved from crumpling down to tho grass by the arm of tho ^orsenmn, drooped limp and gOBplng against tho Hide of the horse,. Slowly tho world i|iilt reeling the light cume buck lu rained his eyt'B caught tin* glitter of a hIioi-II1"h •tyr upon th{ vext of hip re*iMii'i\ OOM BOBBS-MERRJLL COMPANY It is marvelous how one brave man, with the law behind liim, can awe a mob. "Who is this man?" yelled* the sheriff. A man, whose mouth had been mashed by a butt of the Pearlhunter's "Who Is This Man?" Yelled the Sheriff, head, clawed the red mask up from the ground, trampled and soiled, but still unmistakable, and held it high. The sheriff started glared hard at the Pearlhunter. "An' so it's you they've roped!" he growled. "Damned if I hain't' a no tion to let 'em finish the job." A snart ran through the mob. They surged forward. The sheriff drew his revolver again, and cursed them back. "Red Mask or red devil!" he stormed, "he's entitled to a trial un der the law and a trial he'll git." The mob muttered ominously but fell back, leaving scrme little space about the horse. The Pearlhunter was the tallest man there. His height enabled liiin to see with tolerable clearness to the outskirts of the crowd. He swept his eyes over the heads of the others like a man looking for something lie fully expected to find. He was not disappointed. In the outer edge o/ the crowd, learning carelessly against a hitch' r£ck, stood he was expecting to see. He cSine out of the Mud Hen at the beginning of the uproar but had taken no part in the. lynching. He didn't need to. He had a whole town to do it for him. The Pearlhunter was not surprised to see him there. Why shouldn't he be there, a very much interested spec tator at the final working out of his well-laid plot, a plot that had worked out so infinitely better than he had planned? Why shouldn't a man come to see himself hanged? And there the Pearlhunter stood, with the rope around his neck—the wrong neck—and, no proof to put it Ground the right one. Something swelled under, the rope something that surged up to his eyes ami struck out a splinter of fire. He turned to the man on the horse. "Sheriff, if you'll stick my gun back and cut my hands loose, I'll rope you the real Red Mask." It was an unwise thing to say. He knew it the moment he'd said it. It was unlike him. The man leaning in apparent carelessness against the hitch rack was probably quite un aware that he was a suspected. It might prove a„costly mistake to let him know that he w#s. Besides, it was extremely unlikely that he would have the pearl still on him. With the pearl gone, the proof would be gone. The Pearlhunter's usual slow caution should have brought a good many con siderations to his mind before he said that. But a rope around a man's neck makes a prodigious difference in the look of things. One cannot help won dering what would have been the out come had the sheriff heeded the re quest and cut loose the hands of his prisoner.

But the man for whose ear it was In tended never shifted his position never changed, even in the slightest, his easy smile. He did slip his hand down the front of his frock coat and loosen it against his side, but that was all. The sheriff swore turned slowly in his saddle and glanced the crowd over. "Ladies'an' gentlemen," he said, rais ing his voice, "as I said before, this man is entitled to a trial, an' a trial he'll git. He'll hang—but it'll be the law that hangs 'im, an' not you. I ad vise you to break up this damn fool ishness an' go home." It could be 1ecn with half an eye that the sheriff was in no humor to stand any back talk. The crowd didn't try It they obeyed—many sullenly, some grumbling openly. A few stayed. The man leaning against tho hitch rack went back to the Mud lien. The village of Buckeye straggles for a quarter of a mile along the river road. The road is a bigger institution than the town. It formed the princi pal street. The village lockup, or jail, stood in plain sight a short way to the west on the north side of the road. The sheriff dismounted, picked up the slit and tratnpledjilouse, threw it about the shoulders of his prisoner and untied the severed rope end still knotted about his neck. With a mut tered command, he made a slight mo tion toward the jail with his revolver. The Pearlhunter, still with hound hands, his shirt so tattered that It left him half-naked from his waist up, the blood upon his face and body fast stiffening into clots, obeyed the com mand. Inside the lockup the sheriff cut his hands loose, and immediately stepped outside and locked, the door, seeming to have no fancy to tarry after his prisoner's hands were free. Turning back to his prisoner he pointed out his house and told hhn he would bring over some supper later on. The Buckeye lockup was a two .story, rectangular structure of heavy logs. There were two cells, with a hallway between, on the first floor, and the same arrangement above. The Pearlhunter was the only prisoner, so he had free range of both lower cells. The barred gate opening to the stair leading to the upper floor was heavily padlocked. The door of the jail faced south—faced the river road. Each cell had one window the window of the one looking east, the window of the other looking west. These win dows were both rather larger than might have been expected. Each con tained a single sash, with the four bars to each window, set in auger holes in the logs at the top and bot tom. The sash was hinged at the side so as to swing ini The Pearlhunter opened the sash at the west window and swung it back as far as it would go. Through the bars he could look out under the cool, calm trees in the jail yard. The river road wound dusty and dry toward the sundown wound to the first curve and hid itself In the hills wound on to that sharp turn at the rim of the deep woods by the low fence. And there the path began, the dim slim path worn by wonderful feet the path that led to a girl with eyes like the placid sky at the bottom of the spring eyes that "trusted" him, that would look for him. What would they be like when he didn't come when the word reached her that he was the Red Mask? He thought of that bit of scarlet cloth behind the books, with the knife thrust near an eyehole. What if he should never have the chance to set himself right—If he should die without the chance? ^Yfcat #ould the eyes be like then? Wiq £h,pught j3I§tr$sssecl Miff xveii nfgh past bearing. He winced as though it had been a blade that stabbed him. The crinkle of paper in his tattered blouse caught his atten tion. He drew the paper forth—the draft! In the fast failing light he smoothed it out and pored over the words again. His day! His great day! He had watched it slip into a starry world upon the crest of midnight had watched it unbar the gates of dawn. And now it had driven across the world and out at the gates of sunset. Dead! Gone back into the night! He left the window dropped down upon the one broken chair in the cell and burled his face in his hands.
