do not know or acquire our principles, or

prize. 1t is estimated that about thirty
million immigrants have come to our shores
during our national existance. Of our pres

BASKET BALL SERIES

Last Friday evening the NJ. V. II.
home floor to meet the Walsenburg
second team in basketball. The
game started out very slowly. Both
teams played as If they had no am
bition to win the game and at the
end of the first half the score stood
to in favor of Walsenburg. In
the second half the Monte boys
came back strong and simply played
Walsenburg off their feet. The Wis
itors substituted Toxic for Unfuge
at forward but still Monte kept
scoring and the final score was 22
to IL.

Saturday evening both the first
and second team games were much
faster than on the night before and
were played before much larger
crowd.
The second team played hard
from the start and the pace was too
fast for the Walsenburg boys who
were in very poorly trained condi-
ton. The foul throwing of Gibbs
was the feature of tn egame. All of
the Monte team played very good
game and though their opponents
were much larger they had them
totally out-classed and when the fl
nal whistle blew the score was 20
to . in favor of NJ. V. II. S. Second.
Saturday evenings game between
the first teams was by far the most
exciting game of the series for it
was very close and not until the end
of the game could one be sure of
picking the winner During the 1st
half the Monte boys were unable to
handle the heavy attack which the
Walsenburg boys put up. Walsen-
burg held the heavy end of the score
all through the first half Monte
was following close behind all the
time but the score at the end of the
half was 10 to l3 in Walsenburg's
favor.
In the second half Breckenridge
was substituted for Schall at center
and X. Baird for c. Baird at guard.
In this half the Monte boys got
started and by hard playing over

my game, and that was this same
Frank Mattson. But he wanted to
wrestle me at one Of the theaters,
where they don't put up purses big
enough to buy coffee and in the morn
ing, so refused to Wrestle. Then |
wanted to bet him a hundred dollars
and wrestle him in private, just for
the bet. But he was either short of
money or. perhaps he didn't want ito
take my money, away from me-I
don'tlknow which. But his money was
nowhere to be seen, so left Mime.

middle of August I was coming back
and thought I'D drop of in the Mill
City and see what was doing. I Wis.
tied a few of tle athletic clubs and
at the same time l was passing re.
marks about Mattson and thought
some of the members might take a
hunch and back him up against me.
But that did not work; in fact, never
saw Mattson tlis trip; he stayed right
in his hole, and I left for Bismarck.
1 did not hear a thing of Matts0n un-
til I read yesterdays sporting sheet
of the Bismarck Tribune, and the
challenge almost knocked me over.
Now, if the local promoters want to
bring Mattson down lere TO wrest:e
me, will gladly meet him in a finish
match. All he has to do is to name

EQUITY | Meeting NET.
TO DRAW D|]|||A|W CROWD
Expected 10000 Farmers from
Il i / Northwest Will Attend
st. Paul Meeting.

St. Paul, Dec. 4-Next Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday, at the St.
Paul Auditorium, there will be at
least eight to ten thousand Equity
farmers Of North and South Dakota,
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa and Mon.
tana who will come to the big con.
vention full of enthusiasm and de.
sire to make it the greatest conven.
ton ever held in the history Of the
movement. The meeting will be held
principally to celebrate the success OF
the Grain market in St. Paul which is
represented b the Equity exchange.
This celebration will also include the
breaking Of ground for the new $780,.
10000 Equity Terminal Elevator
which is declared to be the greatest
achievement of the Equity movement
in the Northwest. The breaking of
ground will be a tremendous feature
of the last day of the convention.
Owing to the fact that George S. Lof.
tus is too ILL to take his part in the
ceremony his seven.year.old son, Rob
ert LaFollette LOTUS, has been select,
ed by those in charge of the conven.
ton to turn the first ground in the
erection of this elevator. This was
an honor instinctively rendered to
Mr.. Lotus, and because of his pecul-
lar relationship to- this movement in
the Northwest, but inasmuch as his
inability was apparent, his young son
was given the honor. /
A few days ago it was understood
that the delegations from the North
west were coming in special char
tered pullman cars but later reports
indicate that there will be chartered
trains, whole trains loads from Minot
on the Great Northern and Minot on
the 500 will leave on the sixth, bound
for the convention.
The parade will be cne of the tre-,
mendous features of the convention
because of the fact that it returns to
the days of old when the political par
ties to enthuse their ,adherents spent
the nights in torch light demonstra-
tions of various kinds. The thous-
ands of farmers marching through the
streets of St. Paul with torch lights
will be indeed an awakening to the
city. It will also recall many enliven-
ing similar occasions OF the past. The
program is now being completed.
There is long list of excellent speak
ers. The city is thoroughly prepared
to receive and care for the largest del
egation ever brought within her bor-
ders. Treatment to the farmers, and
their wives, will be one of the con.
siderations of the population of st.
Paul. Information bureaus will be es-
tablished. Boy Scouts will patrol the
city labeled with information buttons
SO that. no matter where, you want to
go the Boy Scouts will direct you,
They will also render any courtesy
necessary for your comfort. The seat
ing Of the Auditorium will be in their

MORE ARRESTS MADE
IN AMMUNITION PLOTS
Direct Connections Believed to
Have Been Established Between
Fay and Crowley.

Washington, Dec. AFTER weeks
of investigation covering the entire
country, the department Of justice off.
cials were convinced that they have
under arrest most fthe men impli-
Gated in plots to interfere with Ameri-
can commerce in munitions of war.
Four Arrests Made.
Four arrests are to be made in the
Crowley case and important develop
ments are looked for when all the wit
nesses the government is seeking

testimony. VI
Although officials would not admit
that direct connection has been ex.
tended to the Crowley plot and those
in which Robert Fay and his accom-.
plices were implicated in New York,
it is understood, many facts point to
such a conclusion.
If this proves true, the department
expects within few weeks to com.

interfere with munition in the east to
England, France and Italy and in the
west to Russia.

"VAGS" WILL HAVE CHANCE
TO LEARN SCIENTIFIC FARMING

CLEVELAND. o., Feb. 5.-A plan
to give the recreant 'vag" a hand at
scientific farming by putting the o.
600 acres of Warrensville Farm,
Cleveland. great corrective institution.
under scientific cultivation. is being
worked out here today.
Not only the tramp who comes out
of the police courts with an enforced
vacation tagged on him but every
prisoner would be given an opportu-
nifty to tend his little patch OF onions.
carrots, peas. corn or whatever the
case might be.
The major portion OF the farm viii
be cut up into plots Of forty acres or
so in order that experimentation can
progress on a larger scale than ia now
customary on state experimentation
farms. A complete and scientific rec
ord OF the crop from seed to shuck''
would be kept by experts.
The proposed project is being put
into form on the assumption that
western reserve university and Case
School OF Applied Science here may
some day be merged into municipal
university, requiring a course in SCI
entific agriculture.
