INVESTIGATING"

What the states attorneys Of
nee proposes to do regarding the re-
quest of F. L. Watkins for the pros
ecution of violators Of the prohibi-
tlon laws in Emmons county is still
the chief topic Of conversation 'at
the county seat.
Friday last the states attorney is-
sued subpoenas for several Linton
people and proceeded to hold an
investigation" Among those SUBJ
poenaed were Mrs. w. S. Freeman.
Mrs. Galentine. Mrs. Ramey. Her.
man Thoreson. Geo. Burge and the
writer. 1t has been generally talked
that the whole business was meant
as sort of "white-wash" to pro-
tect the local authorities should the
matter be taken higher up. 1t was
considered particularly significant
that most of those subpoenaed were
not users of alcoholic beverages and
quite probably had neither tried to
buy nor had bought the same.
Certain draymen were included
in the subpoenaed list. We UNDER
stand that the general tone of their
evidence was to the effect that they
hauled beer and whiskey, "but not
in large quantities
Just what was expected from the
writer's testimony by interested
parties he is not in position to de-
termine. OF course, it was quite
certain in advance that it would be
impossible for him to swear to hav-
ing purchased liquor from parties
plying their trade in the county.
But it was possible to give some in
formation that should prove valu-
able in the investigation which has
been started.
That the writer would attempt to
shield any of those who have been
violating the liquor laws in a most
fragrant manner it was most prepos-
ferrous to believe. He had informa-
tion to the effect that several per-
sons had been conducting blind pigs
in most open manner and that the
states attorney was familiar. with
the conditions that existed. He had
the statement of Nicholaus Heisler,
chief of police, made in the presence
of other witnesses. that the states
attorney had ordered him to go to
the bIind-piggers in town and tell
them to close up on the day that it
became general knowledge that F.
L. Watkins. state enforcement Of
ficer, was in town. He had letter
from party near Strasburg stating
that early in the year at the time
the latter was written there were
thirteen places operating in that
town. also that one man there said
that he had made six hundred dol
lars in short time selling beer and
whiskey.
The writer had information that
local persons had sold intoxicating
liquors and in one instance upon
the admission of the man himself

who sold the same.

The states attorneys attention
was called to the fact that on or
about the eighteenth day Of Febru-
ary several persons were fined for
being drunk and disorderly" and
that one was the same person shown
by the Milwaukee records to have
been receiving large shipments of
beer. They certainly should be
competent witnesses for this inves-
tigation. They no doubt know
where they got the stuff that made
them drunk. 1t probably wasn't
tea.
The writer had information that
F. L. Watkins had written the
states attorney some time ago by
registered mail asking for criminal
prosecutions against the list of per-
sons he named and the list being
somewhat longer than the one ap-
pearing recently in the Fargo
Forum. and that injunction proceed
ings be started against such proper
ties as were used in the business,
and has copy of that letter.
The writer had information that
C. F. Wagner, Of the local school
board, had complained while in the
Office Of the states attorney that
the board would start something if
the selling Of Intoxicating liquors in
the sand-pit near town was not
stopped, the patrons Of the place
passing directly over the school
grounds in going to land from the
place.
In one instance the states attor-
ney asked the writer from whom he
had received information that would
show the states attorney to be ia
miliar with the existing conditions.
The names were given, but the ma
ture of the information was not re-
quested. for some reason.
If the proceedings held was in the
nature of a "white.wash" there can
be no doubt that the plans heve mis-
carried. If the states attorney
means business. he is in q position
to deliver the goods. And, in any in
stance. the results are bound to be
obtained. The public should not
expect the thing to be accomplished
In q minute. 1t is an important
matter touching the most vitai--in.
tereats of this county and its people.
1t will be handled more or less slow
ly, but nevertheless thoroughly.
There is only one way to get results
and that is to convince the lawless
element that they must have some
respect for the government under
which they live. When that time
comes it will not be necessary for
individuals to complain of the kind
of advertising the county received
in recent article in the Fargo
Forum.
One thing is absolutely certain:
The states attorney will do the bus
mess or he will make way for one
who will.

shot down in his home, which was
flying the Stars and Stripes and was
sealed with the coat of arms of the
United States. The Brazilian minis
ter in Mexico City at once demanded
the punishment of the perpetrators OF
the crime on the part of the United
States. Secretary Bryan Immediately
wired the minister his commentator

son has demanded complete repara-
ton from all the Mexican Revolution
lists, especially General Salazar, the
Zapata commander now in power at
Mexico City. The president insists
not only on the punishment OF the
guilty, but complete reparation to the
family of the victim.

considerably alarmed over the fact
that Japanese troops have been i'm

garrisons. These steps are being care
fully watched both at Petrograd and

of Georgia, William II. Parry of Wash

bers of the Federal Trade Commits
sion with far-reaching powers of SUI

There were only the simplest cere-
monies. Chief Justice J. Harry Gov
ington of the Supreme Court of the
District of Columbia, administered the
oath, completing the work he began
as a member of Congress, when he
introduced the bill creating the COM
mission. Later in the week the COM
missiOners will be received by Presi-
dent Wilson.
All of the commissioners were in
Washington engaged in preliminary
conferences. Mr.. Davies, who is the
first chairman Of the commission,
called the first formal meeting i'm
the members into office. From that
time on the commission will be in
daily session.
No announcement as to the first
problem to be attacked has been made.
Through the absorption of the Blu
reau of Corporations in the Commerce
Department by the new commission,
it's work Of organization will be great
ly simplified. The office staff and
reco1 DIS of that bureau are transferred
to the commission and furnish work

of the trade commission is to estab-

ENGLAND EXPLAINS BLOCKADE.
Great Britain Tells How She Will
Place Blockade on Germany.


London.-Great Britain made known
to the world in formal proclamation
signed in council by the king and is
sued from Buckingham Palace how
she proposes to sever the arteries of
sea commerce to and from Germany
during the period of the war.
The term "blockade' is not used
and no prohibited area is defined.
Nevertheless the text of the order
makes plain England's purpose to pre-
vent commodities of any kind from
reaching or leaving Germany during
the war.
The last clause of the proclamation
contains the proposal most interesting
to neutrals. This is a fiat agreement
to lift the BLOCKADE" in case any ma
ton will certify that the ships flying
it's flag shall not carry goods to Ger
many or goods originating therein or
goods belonging to the subjects of the
German empire.
It is notable that the order declares
no intention to capture ships proceed
ing to and from the countries of Ger
many's allies Austria and Turkey the
reason being no doubt that the meas
ure is avowedly a reprisal against Ger
many's submarine warfare. However,
a Gordon of ships will be maintained
to shut off the commerce of German
ports and regulate trade in the war
zone, although ships voyaging east
ward across the Atlantic, will, it is
expected, be seized before they reach
the North Sea.
