CAMPA|GNERS HAD A
DAY Of REST.
MORE WORK
Next Tuesday They Will
Make Final Reports
New Names Added

Today was O day Of rest for off,
Gals and campaigners Of the Grand
Forks Commercial club. They took
things easy for the first time in two
weeks. and had their first opportunity
OF reviewing the events in which
they have taken such an active part.
In the office of the secretary there
was a decidedly interesting situation,
with nearly 300 new membership ap-
pltcations on file, almost doubling the
former membership, there was a big
task still to be cared for. The va
rious applications must be checked up
board of directors when they hold
their meeting x Tuesday afternoon.
The campaign for new members
is by no means at I'M end. The club
Will not formally close the work un-
til next Tuesday when there will be
a luncheon for the workers and the
directors, and the committee chair.
men will make their final report.
The present total membership of
the Grand Forks organization is 655,
four more memberships having been
added since the luncheon Of 'yester-
day.
Outsiders Show Interest.
One OF the gratifying features in
connection with the present member
ship movement is the interest that is
shown by the outsiders. Several non
resident memberships have been writ
ten. and more Ire promised. The out
OF the city business men appreciate
the fact that the Grand Forks club
is working for the general interests
OF the entire state. and for that rea-
son they are lending their support
IN every manne possible.

Not only men. but particularly
granddaughter women are strong
~ opposed to woman suffrage. This
has been shown at many occasions"
said Mr.. Schmidt. II also believe that
NJ sensible woman. no matter To
what nationality, she belongs. is
=. woman with the right womanly
heart has nc desire to participate in
public affairs."
1t is understood the German-Ameri-
can. alliance already has obtained agi-
tators to work the different states
against woman suffrage. In Wiscon-
sin they have ben active. There will
probably be meetings in st. Paul and
other cities in Minnesota and all over
the United States, backed financially
by practically all Gcrman-American
societies.
During the recent state teachers
convention at Milwaukee a delegation
from German organizations approach
ed tn heads of the German-American
National alliance and asked that in
view of the teachers proclamation for
woman suffrage. the other side of the
question be submitted to the conven
ton.
Time Ripe for Other Side.
AT tina time. it is said. the German
American National alliance answered
that the time was not ripe. hut that
later the other the other side would
he aiken up by the association. Since
then. 1t is asserted. the efforts for the
prospective campaign were rcdoubled
and now it is about to begin.
At the Wisconsin state convention of
the alliance in Milwaukee last fall,
Prot. Noss of the University of Wis
consln made Il spirited speech against
woman suffrage and at that time $500
Gernlan-American women and as
many men voted against the PROPOSE
ton. This action gave the first inn
petus to the movement.

ALL EVIDENCE N COOPER
CASE IS BEFORE JURY
rcontinued from Page IL
Lyche Opens for State.

States Attorney Charles Lyche of
Trail county opened the arguments
for the state when court convened
this afternoon. Attorney Lyche call
ed attention to the grave duty resting
the jury in the case. He went
at some length into the lives Of the
deceased. James Franklin Ross, and
the defendant, McLain Cooper At
torney Lyche dwelt on the relations
between Ross and Cooper and urged
that up to a very short time before
h fatal shot was fired, the two were
on very friendly relations. He argued
that Frank Ross was in fact the man
In control of the farm and that Nc
Lain Cooper's dignity was injured.
He characterized the defendant as a
spoiled child. When Frank Ross had
the tussle on the evening Of March
10 his dignity was badly shattered.
ney Lyche took up the dying declar-
alton Of ]. F. Ross and declared that
1t was the word of the defendants
father. Harry j. Cooper. against four
witnesses as to the condition Of Ross
when he took tho dying declaration.
states witnesses he urged were
absolutely unprejudiced while Harry
J.. Cooper was there with the knowl-
edge that he would undoubtedly go
on the stand in defense Of his son.
Attorney Lyche read at some
length from the dying declaration as
to the scuffle that took place on the
evening of March. 10. He declared
that IL McLain Cooper was in fact
afraid of Frank Ross at that time he
would not have called for
Fowler to get the sheriff eight
miles away, knowing that
this would increase Ross feeling
against him. Attorney Lycke empha-
sized the conversations had over the
telephone with Sheriff Serum and the
sheriff. He declared that
here was further evidence as to the
of the defendant and as to
his intention the next morning. It
was right there, said the states at
torney. that McIain Cooper decided to
drive Frank Ross Of the farm.
Passing on to the morning of the
shooting, Attorney Lyche again took
up the dying declaration and read
from it. He called attention to the
fact that the gun as taken from the
pocket Of McLain Cooper had in only
four shells. two empty and two load
Mr.. Lyche said that he could not
explain this discrepancy. Attorney
Lyche went over the evidence Of the
witness Hculet as to what took place
on the morning of March IL, claiming
that the dying declaration was abso-
lutely cOrroborated.

Defines Position

The position of the state pure food
department on the question Of selling
rico that. is coated with glucose and
talcum is set forth in the following
letter to Mrs. r. A. Sprague, the local
inspector.
This department has not given
wholesale houses permission to sell,
in North Dakota. rice that is coated
with glucose and talcum," Prof. e,
F. Ladd writes. Farther than that,
the department has not given to local
dealers permission to receive rice
from jobbers outside Of the state that
is coated with talcum and glucose.
Parties handling these goods are
liable to prosecution, and we have
notified wholesalers. as far as we
know throughout the state, that the
sale Of this class of goods is illegal
in North Dakota. We have, however,
stated that We would make no prose-
against local merchants for
goods which they previously had on
hand until after January /; but do
not give permission to bring addition
al samples into the state. or to pur-
chase additional samples from parties
within OF without the state"
