FllckERTAllS NEXT GAME

The local High School football team
met the Mandan team ON the latter 9
field in an interesting game last Sat-
urday, October 28.
Nichols of the Dickinson team won
the toss and chose the west goal. Twenty
five minute heives were played. During
the first half McGillic of Mandan was
hurt and taken from the field, Miller
taking his place. In this half the local
team held down the score and most oi
the play was in the Mandan territory,
showing that the local team had the
advantage.
EARLY in the third quarter Nichols re-
ceived an injury on his head. which
put him out for the rest of the game
Beedle was put in as substitute. After
the shifting of men the lineup was
materially weakened and Mandan ran
up score of II to O.
The Mandan team has had experience
in football. They repeatedly made is
to 20 yds. by forward passes. and gain
ed by left end runs and left side
smashes. The team was heavier by al.
most 20 lbs. to man. and although the
Dickinson boys held we'll, weight told
against them.
The Dickinson boys had the disad-
vantage which comes from playing on q
strange field. and in this particular
game the rough field caused much
stumbling and consequently fumbline
Of the ball.
The referee, Mr.. Bolz of Bismarck,
did splendid work and was thoroughly
competent and impartial.
After the game the teams and the
students went to the school house
where an elaborate ban. .uet was served.
Speeches were given by Supt. love and
Principal Bear, both of Mandan. From
then until train time social hour was
enjoyed. which gave the local boys
chance to get acquainted with the Man
dan boys and girls. The Mandan people
showed good spirit and did all they
could to make the trip a pleasant one
for the visiting team.
Final score. u to 0. Referee, Mr..
Bolz. Umpire, Peterson. Timekeeper,

The Mandan team had the following
players: Miller. Stiles. Heaton, Mvr-
tenson, Nicholson, Bartlett, Charles.
worth, Carew. Dunlap. Renden. Me-
Gillic.
Mr.. Gustafson, manual training in
structor. went down with the local boys
also the other coach, VIM. Peterson.
The Mandan Highs were scheduled
for game here this Saturday after
noon. with the Flickertail team and as
the latter team have some heavy men
in their present lineup the game will
probably be matched one.

DICKINSON WINTER FAIR
Second Annual Meeting of the North Dakota Dry Farming Assoca
ton aud Dickinson Mid Winter Fair Will be Held Armory
Building in Dickinson December and g. Cash Prizes
Increased Over Those of Last Season

The North Dakota Dry Farming Asso-
citation Yves ss6anized to benefit the
farmer. The basiness men are inter
ested in It for sAsy know that when the
farmer is bensAted tho merchant is
benefited likewise. In 1909 when crops
were good the merchants were prosper
GUS. This IAN otter two dry seasons
merchants say that trade is very poor
and collections difficult. The cause of
the bad years has been the lack of
moisture.
Those who have studied the problem
say that II certain methods of farming
had been carried out much better crops
would have been harvested in 1910 and
1911. Results with the farmers them
selves indicate that this is true. We
have records Of GOOD crops this year
grown on land where the moisture of
1910 had been conserved. Farmers that
had live stock and grew corn and alfalfa
found that they made money even in
1911. while farners that depended prin.
cipally upon whea, and oats for living
in 1911 found that they had nothing to
show for their work.
The aim Of the association is to get
farmers together from Western North Da-
ko:a, or from the whole state for that
matter, and discuss with them why
some methods are more successful than
others. and to endeavor to induce the
farmers generally to follow the most
successful D,ethod. If the association
succeeds in this, even to limited ex-
tent, then the energy and money ex-
pended will be repaid many fold.
Mr.. Jones, for instance, lost money
farming in 1911. He grew wheat after
wheat, and depended upon wheat and
oats tor living. Had Mr. Jones owned
some dairy COWS, few steers. and
some hoes; had be grown some com
and kept it we'll cultivated; had he had
a good stand of alfalfa properly attend
ed to; had he grown his wheat on sum-
mer faIlow and his fax on land broken
in 1910; and had he planted and taken
care of good garden and had he set
out fruit, which did we'll in 1911. then
he would have little cause to complain.
MIR. Smith did those things and feels
pretty we'll satisfied. though the year
was dry. If he is in debt he will be
able to pay his interest and cut off
little from the principal.
Now this Dry Farming Association is
honestly eRdeav0ring to get Mr.. Jones
and all the other farmers to follow some
what in the footsteps of Mr.. Smith. No
one wants all the famers to follow in
the same rut but every one is anxious
to have the farmer make good living
first; and second, to lay by little for
rainy day. People who think. say
that if the farmer makes good living.
but without too much hard work: and
that if he lays by little surplus, but
not too much, then we have gone a
long ways towards curing the economic
ills that trouble our country side.
1t is foolish to indulge in dreams that
cannot be realized: but here we have
something real and practical towards
which we can work. and it is desired
to enthuse every farmer to work forward

Opens A War
 On Cut Rates Winchester Arms Company Seeks to Epjoin Action by
 Cincinnati Dealer

Cincinnati, O.. Oct. 5.-The Win chester Repeating Arms company, Connecticut corporation of New Ha- ven, has filed a third suit against Eugene c. and Charles l.. Evans, hardware dealers, doing business as Evans brothers, alleging infringement of complainants' patent, rights by sell ing it's make of firearms at prices low CT than fixed by complainant. The first suit, filed Monday, prayed for an injunction to stop defendants from making and maintaining cut rates on these firearms. The action brought yesterday prays for an injunction to restrain the hardware concern from removing from the firearms referred to license notices informing the deal CT and the public that the article bearing such notice may not be sold at a lower rate than fixed by the complainant. The petition alleges that Evans Brothers have in the past re- moved such licenses or mutilated them before placing the firearms on sale The suit also asks the court to grant an injunction stopping the de- fendants from getting Winchester goods from any wholesaler and ad- Vertising them for sale and for sell ing them at less than the prices fix. ed by the company. The outcome or the suits will undoubtedly prove lm- portant for the hundreds of dealers who handle the Winchester firearms.

MOB RuLE..

On Monday and Tuesday many thousands of the men of Connecticut and a few of the women went to the ballot box. They made choice of town and city officers. They decided that Intoxicating liquors should be sold in some towns and should not in others. They adopted two amendments to the constitution. of the state With res- pect to license the voters of Connec- ticut exercise the power of initiative They scan vote upon the question in any community when ten per cent of the voters petition for a ballot The constitutional amendments, on the other hand, were referred" to the voters by the General Assembly, So the people exercised, in the very last election, powers which they have inn exercised, namely the powers of initiative and referendum.
 Now in almost a score of states of the Union the constitutions have been amended so that the people can vote upon any law, just as they. vote upon the license question. That is:
 1. There must be a petition sign ed by ten per cent. more or less, of the voters, for the submission of the proposed law.
 2. The proposed law when submit ted must receive a majority of the votes to be adopted.
 This is the reform that wicked or uniformed persons describe as ''mob rule"
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1911-10-05

The highest court of a nation which is founded upon the theory that "all political power is inherent in the peo- ple,' is to be asked to set aside the will of the people of some eighteen sovereign states, who have decreed that within those states the electors shall when they desire to do so vote as directly upon measures as they now vote for candidates. \ The action is brought by the Pac- fife States Telephone Company, which attacks the Initiative amendments in the constitution of that state. It will be noticed that the company does not say that it is unjustly taxed, or un- constitutionally taxed, or that it is paying more than it's share of taxes. It simply says that it ought not to be taxed by a law which the people themselves made.
 It asserts that government in which the people make the laws IS not Republican form of govern ment.

THE DOUBLE LESSON.

in Bristol and Waterbury is we'll told in the special despatches to the Far mer. There have been no sudden ac- mediate. establishment of a co-opera- tive commonwealth with public own ership of all property employed for production. There has come wide spread and deep seated disgust with the methods of party leaders who are out of touch with the people and not sufficiently receptive to progressive
 demands. The large third party vote in Bristol resulted from betrayal of political promises to bring about

THE NEW BALLOT.

The Norwich Bulletin says that "the numbered ballot is a splendid politi- cal device to make a farce of secret .voting'' The esteemed Hartford Times thinks the complaint of the Bulletin is we'll founded. This mu- tuaI misapprehension is evidently due to the belief of The Times and The Bulletin that the ballots carry a num- her. They do not. They carry a numbered stub, which is torn off from the ballot, but not deposited
 There is no way in which it can be ascertained by the number on the stub how any ballot was cast, nor can the ballot be identified as having come from any, particular stub All ob- about as we'll founded as this one. The Australian ballot has fought its way during 20 years into general use. The imperfect Connecticut system is much superior to the old system, though inferior to the best systems
 The ballot is taken out of the hands of persons who make a business of influencing the electorate. It is handed to the voter only upon his arrival at the polls. It equips him with complete means of voting for any candidate of his choice, of what ever party It is a secret ballot. The old ballot had none of these advan
 tages. It lent itself to corruption. It was only partially secret. It did not equip the voter with a complete means for expressing his will The paster was a necessary, expensive and but partially sufficient adjunct to it.

COURT vs. PEOPLE.

For some time the forces of reac- ton have been paving the way for ah attack upon the initiative and ref erendum in state constitutions, upon the ground that these powers are in opposition to the Constitution of the United States because they are not parts of Republican form of gov ernment.'. Wherever this issue has been raised in a state court it has been promptly kicked out of court No bench of judges has yet been eouns wnlfns to AtracK at the bottom Sne risht of the people of a state to amend their constitution in accord ance with their sovereign will.
 The campaign is now. transferred to the Supreme Court of the United States, where one of the greatest battles in the history of free govern ment will be fought.

municipal ownership of the water works. Mayor Hotchkiss' defeat was in large part due to a similar betray- al of the municipal ownership pro- gram, but in this case the electric light plant was involved. Doubtless in both Bristol and Waterbury pub nc men who are out of. office. feel that they have paid a large price for being lukewarm toward a reform which they didn't believe "amounted to mueh.''
