Against Third Party

New York. Aug experimenting
his declaration OF Saturday that the
Bull Moose party was born of feel
ing that the people had gone into
blind alleys often enough in following
the old political leadership and were
determined to open a new road for
themselves, Gov. Woodrow Wilson de-
clared yesterday before 10000 German
picnickers at the Schuetzen Park, near
Hoboken, that a battle was fought at
Baltimore which left the Democratic
party free from the bosses and made it
an organized fundamentally capable
of carrying out every just demand Of
the people.
Governor Wilson went on record as
holding that the Bull Moose party
while it may have been considered to
be essential before the Baltimore Con-
vention, was rendered useless and I'M
necessary by that convention, and was
not likely. for that very reason, to
menace his own party's success at the
polls in November
Entirely Free, He Says
Nobody owns me and the man on
the ticket with me- said Governor
Wilson in his Hoboken speech; q not
only have not made promise to any
man but no man has dared to ask me
to make a promise Ny ears are free,
therefore, 10 hear the counsels of my
fellow-citizens.
y am entering upon this campaign
not only with hope Of victory but with
absolute confidence, | know that the
people of this country have determin-
ed to take possession of their own
thoughts may be translated into the
affairs of the Government. and / know
by the present constitution of the
great party that belong to that there
is way in which they can get it,"

Activity IN the stock market has in
creased the demand for money but
rates remain unchanged. This has
been due to the gradual transferenee
to London of many large speculative
stock market accounts. Even at the

With the advance IN prices the mar

The activity has encouraged several
pools operating in the market to bid
up the shares they are interested in.
Nevertheless outside of any manipu-
lative influence the movement mas a

prospects. 1t is now conservatively
estimated that this years crops give
promise of having money value OF
OF least nine billion dollars, an in
creas over last year of six hundred
million dollars. This has generated
an optimistic feeling in business cir
cles and stimulated commercial ac-
tivity. Stocks which have been for
sale on advances have been with
drawn for the time being. This has
materially aided the upward move
ment,
Much of the short interest in the
market has been eliminated by the
advance leaving the technical position
weak. If prices are to be carried
much higher another short interest
must be encouraged Should prices
continue to advance without a mod
crate recession from this level it
would seem to me that a drastic re-
cession can be expected when the
market has worked three to five
points higher On the other hand a
recession at this time would seem to
indicate ultimately a further advance.

The London Times: The original
certificates Of marriages celebrated at
Gretna Green between 1926 and 1854.
signed by the contracting parties, and
the Gretna hall marriage register will
be sold at Sotheby's. They are in the
autograph of John Linton, by whom
almost all the marriages were cele-
brated, and who, after Being conf
dental servant to Sir James Graham
at Netherby hall, invested his savings
in the purchase of Gretna hall. which
he turned into an inn.
His house became the most popular
at Gretna for clipping couples, and,
while Linto had many rivals in the
business, his registers are believed to
be the most important in existence.
There are between LOO and 1900 GER
tificates.
The most noteworthy entry in tho
register is that of Edward Gibbon
Wakefield to Ellen Turner on March
8, 1926, of which the certificate has
been lost. Miss Turner was an heir
ess only 16 years Of age. and Wake
field decoyed her from school by
means of a forged letter, and induced
her to marry him by pretending that
her compliance was necessary to save
her father from ruin. He was sub
sequently tried for abduction and sem
fenced 20 three years Imprisonment,
the marriage being annulled by a
special act Of parliament.
On May z, 1886, Prince Carlo Ferdi-
nando Borbone, younger brother of the
notorious King Ferdinand II, of the
Two Sicilies, was married at Gretna
hall to Penelops Caroline Smyth of
Waterford, Ire. Among the most in

certificates of which are present. is
that Of Capt. Charles Parke Ibbetson
to Lady Adela Corisande Maud VIII

on Nov. 6, 1S45.
In making a runaway match Lady
Adela was following the example of
her grandmother, Miss Sarah Child.
daughter of the founder Of Child's
bank, who was married at Gretna
Green to Lord WestmDreland. The
story of their pursuit by the angry
banker, who gave up the chase only
after one of the horse in his coach had
been shot by his prospective son-in-
law, is one of the most famous in the
annals of Gretna Green.

men
UP in ARMS
ALLEGED UNREASONABLE Or
DERs ISSUED BY RAILROADS
REGARDING SPRING SHIPMENT
OF sPuDs--MUsT HAVE STOVE
AND MAN WITH CARS.

Local potato men were up in arms,
this morning, after they opened their
mail. 1t was not long before they Gre
ated considerable activity over the tel
ephone and telegraph wires between
Moorhead and st. Paul and animated
conversations Were had between high
UP railroad men and Judge Mills, chair
man Of the state railroad and ware
house commission. After a chat with
Leslie Welter, Judge Mills told Mr..
Welter that the subject was important
and he would put his presence In the
railroad sanctum within an hour"
The furry was caused by the receipt
of an order by the railroads that from
now on no shipments OF potatoes would
be received unless tthe potatoes were
accompanied by q stove in the car and
a man to go along to take care of the
spuds. The 500 line people went fur
ther than the other roads--they insist
ed that the stove must be a wood burn
ing one as oil stoves were not reliable
Leslie Welter said today: "Tslle sun
has crossed the line, and the danger
of hard frosts has passed, and there is
little or no risk now with shipments
in refrigerator cars.
"The 500 order indicates that they
must be anticipating a coal strike. Last
fall, when the temperature ranged
about and below zero. and still colder
weather was naturally to be expected
the railroads furnished us with ordin-
ary common box cars to make our
shipments in, and, during the winter,
agents were allowed to use their own
judgment as to what was sent out.
THE order which came last night has
simply been lying dead all winter, and
now when the warm weather is with
us it Is put into effect There is cer-
tainly nice bunch Of humorists down
there in st. Paul. If the railroads are
not willing to assume any risk what
ever, why don't they make the same
rate for potatoes as they do for
wheat?"
Several potato men in the city today
were emphatic in their assertion that
the candidate for the legislature from
Clay county next fall would have to
satisfy the membership of the Clay
County Potato Growers association
that he was right on the potato ship
ping regulations as well as the read
justment Of rates.

DRIVER OF MAGIC CITY AR
RESTED, CHARGED WITH THE
ASSAULT.

Minot Reporter Charged with as
sault and battery Fred Hines, night
bus man employed by Smiths Trans
fer Co., and driving the Leland hotel
bus was arrested on bench war
rant issued by Judge Leighton.
Hines victim is E. Van Houten, a
prominent and aged resident of Moor
head. 1t appears that Van Houten ar
rived in the city over the Great North
ern, intending to leave again on the
500 within short time. He drove to
the hotel in the bus and upon reach
ing there was given return check
from the hotel to the depot. He dis
covered few moments later that the
train he wished to take would leave
within a few minutes so again entered
the bus and upon reaching the 500
depot handed the check to the bus
man, not understanding that It was
good only as return fare to the
Great Northern depot.
The two men became engaged in
an alteration and as a result Of the
dispute, Van Houten was forced to
seek the services of an eye specialist
as his glasses had been shattered by
an alleged blow from Hines and par
ticles of the glass became lodged in
his eye.
His cheek and jaw also were badly
bruised. Van Houten is 73 years of
age and prominently identified with a
number of mills in Moorhead and that
section of Minnesota. Hines trial will
come up in district court this week.
