told the committee that the Cana.
dian government is dIsbursing a
quarter of a million dollars every
year with another auxiliary pub-
fishing organization to print in
country weeklies alluring adver
tisements of Canadian land that he
claimed are misleading and calcu-
lated to make American farmers
leave the United States TO go to
the Canadian provinces.
Senator Nelson, in commenting
upon the exodus Of American
farmers to Canada, said:
There have been more than
100000 farmers lured from the
United States into Canada. a
great many of them have been dis
appointed and now are coming
back, but a camyaign is being
continued and more are going north
to take the place of the dissapoint-
ed ones. >"
Senator Nelson urged that
Smiths charges be investigated
carefully. A specimen of the al
legged misleading advertisements
were submitted by Smith to the
committee, and it was decided to
ask George A. Joslyn of Omaha.
president of the Western Newspa-
per Union, to appear before the
committee. Smith asserted the
articles had been printed in 5000
weekly newspapers and circulated
ia every state in the Union except
Utah.

Enrolment Books
Close January |
Attorney General Holds That Electors
Cannot Legally Enroll After Jan. |.

In answer to an inquiry from
States Attorney Robert Pierson of
Corson county, Attorney General
Royal G.. Johnson holds that 10
elector can legally enroll or change
his party affiliations after Jan. /.
This finding was made on the
following inquiry made by States
Attorney PiersOn:
Would you kindly advise me
whether the county auditor has the
right to enroll electors of the county
after January lst, such electors
having failed to register before that
time but now having fled affidavit
under section 33 Especial enrolment
If absent or 81 ,k. Also whether
an elector has the right to change
his party affiliations after being
legally registered"
In his opinion Attorney General
johnson says:
Replying thereto | will state
that it is my opinion that the en-
rollment books were entirely closed
on January lst, and that no elector
can enroll after that date. Section
33. to which you refer, provides
for enrOllement bysafhdavit only
within the time fixed for enrolment
and as | construe the statute, jan
uary lst was the last date.
The same reasoning would ap.
ply to voter desiring to change
his affiliations. was Of the 0pin-
ion that he could so change it until
Jan. |, but DO not believe hs has
any right TO make any change after
that date"

gram And Plans FIR Annual Meet.
ing YeIIOwSi nc Trail
ASSOcia ion.

Lennon, Jan. 90 Secretary +.
A. Finch of the Twin City Aber-
deem Yellowstone Trail Association
is this week sending letters TO all
the Commercial Clubs and Auto
mobile Clubs along the route, an
nouncing the annual meeting of
the association at Mobridge on
February 20th. He urges that
every town send one or more dele
gates. as important plans for the
new year will be taken up He also
suggests that the stretches of the
trail now remaining unmarked be
looked after at once, so that the
entire trail be decorated with the
trail colors of yellow.
Mr.. Finch touches upon a new
subject in the letter. that is worthy
OF mention, and that is the desr-
ability of each town, big or little,
through which the trail passes
making special effort for neatness
and cleanliness, in order to make a
good impression upon the tourists
There is no doubt but what dur
ing the year, .ir. Finch points out.
there will be much travel over the
route. He has recently received a
letter from DR.. Marston, of MINI e.
apoIis. one Of the Trail boosters,
to the effect that the prospect is
very bright for the trail to have
the distinction of the big Glidden
Tour He believes that every effort
should be put forth to secure this
as it would be a big boost for the
IsarIe route and at the same time be
incentive to fix up the few links in
the trail that are at present incom-
plete.
Mr.. FiEch's letter has the right
ring to it and shows that it's author
is looking after the duties of his
office in good shape.
