VIOLATION OF AGREEMENT

Atchison is about to receive an
other attack from the long distance
siege guns Of the attorney general ;
office 1t is all because Atchison
Democrats have nominated former
Mayor Finney for another term Re
Gently Finney resigned as mayor OF
Atchison when custer suits were Illed
by S. NJ. Brewster, attorney general
Efforts of AtchisOn voters today to
appease the wrath of the attorney gen
eraI failed completely. Brewster not
only failed to recede from his former
position. but he threatened another
attack on Atchison officials if F1nney
stays in the mayOralty race and WINS
the election. Several Atehlson people
sought a reconciliation with the at
torney general over the long distance
telephone But they were told to
withdraw F'inney from the race or
prepare for a new war.
In custer suits against Mayor Fin
ney and the Atchisou chief of police,
Brewster recently charged that the pro-
hibitory liquor law was violated with
the officials knowledge and consent.
Following the filing of the suits, Fin
ney resigned under an agreement
that he would not be a candidate in
the present election Thursday night
Atchison Democrats held convention,
nominated FiRney and the former
mayor accepted the nomination Now
AtchisOn is really excited Finneys
friends want MIN to stay IN the race
Law enforcement advocates want the
former mayor banished or sent to Jail
or prosecuted
Will Renew the War.
IF Finney stays in the race and
wins. l will move TO renew the custer
the first day he goes into office" said
Brewster. That isn't all 1 think
shall 80 after the entire police depart
ment Of the city. I shall also ask for a
receiver for the Eagles lodge. If Fin
ney wants to break his agreement
with me. all right. But he wants to
get ready for trouble the minute he
does it. They can't put such a propo-
sition over on me and there Will be n
lot of trouble if they try"
Statements from Atchison today in
dicated Finney might tonight with
draw from the race and change his
mind about accepting the nomination
for mayor. Another report is to the
effect that he intends merely TO with
draw on the eve of the election in
favor of an opposition candidate who
is credited as friendly to the Finney
following
4 don't want any one to try sharp
practices or smooth politics in this
matter" Brewster declared. Il pro-
pose to watch the election in Atchfson
and If the town elects a mayor who
seeks TO carry out the Finney policies.
he viii get the same medicine we gave
Finney."

Phelps that a good many OF your

members Of the board"
Yes, they have seen individual

the answer They have been quite
determined in this matter and it is
for that reason that they resent the
secret action of the board"
Judge Phelps reiterated that such
action was taken only as a protection
for Prof Hampton, SO that he might
quietly secure another position. Prof
Hampton himself brought the contro.
versy to a mend by declaring that, in
asmuch as the board had seen III to

any contention in the district.

New London Farmers institute.
For several years the agricultural
extension department of the state uni
versity has conducted during the win
ter months meetings of farmers,
known as farmers Institutes. This
has made it possible for rural people
throughout the state to get the ideas
on farming OF some very practical
leaders in this state. As most of the
speakers at these gatherings are men,
who combine broad knowledge of
agriculture with, actual practice and
experience, they are in most fit
ting position to talk to rural people.
The men who conducted the work
Friday and Saturday, Feb. 18 and 49,,
at New London, were both practical
farmers. They were e. w. Smith of
Parkers Prairie, general farmer and
potato grower, and F. B. McLeran OF
Wrenshall, a dairyman. G. B. Brown,
who was to have handled the poultry
work, was not here, as he was needed
elsewhere.
Both speakers were we'll appreciated
by the audiences, which were large.
Three sessions were held with a total
attendance of $50. The subjects; soil
fertility, crop rotation and the rela-
ton Of live stock to soil fertility were
discussed Friday afternoon, Saturday
| morning dairy farming, silos, and
kitchen conveniences were taken up.
The closing session in the afternoon
| was occupied with talks on potato
| growing and the feeding and care OF
dairy cows.
Some very good points emphasized
during the meeting were:
1. That care, selection, and breeding
are the stepping stones to success IN
dairying, and that the common COW
should not be ignored. Pure breeds
are generally too expensive to begi1
with, so go easy and grade up grad
ually.
! 2. That clover growing, crop rota
ton and live stock farming enriche'
the soil. ~
| 3. That more can be made from
grain and live stock combined on thu
same number of acres than from grail
alone.
4. That there is money in potato
growing in northern Minnesota, II yOl
stick to it.; and that you have to sticl
to any kind of farming to win out.
5. That dairying is one Of the mos
paying farming propositions in Minnie
, sofa.
6. And that the improvements II
the home and in the kitchen are o
; more importance than a fancy CATH
; barn.
Some of these facts we will not b.
: able to throw away after carrying
, them home, and they will be a sourc
of much good. Let us boost for
! greater advancement in farm life an
work, and for more cooperation.
