FEAR EMIGRATION
AFTER THE WAR

Sydney. Australia, Jun. 15-(Cor-
respondence Associated Press Sir
Rider Haggard, the English novelist
and land settlement expert who is on
a tour of British oversee dominions
to investigate ways and means of
placing British soldiers and sailors
on the land after the war, sailed for
New Zealand from here last week,
having finished his work in Austria
liza. He will spend about a month
in New Zealand and will then go on
to Canada.
Speaking of his efforts in the
Commonwealth, which involved g.
600 miles travelling in about six
weeks, he said, they had been extra
ordinarily successful.
The Queensland government" he
said, lis prepared to provide mil
lion acres for agriculture for the
settlement of ex-service men from
the United Kingdom. The New
South Wales government by it's irri-
cation scheme will be enabled to
increase it's settlers by about 1000
in two years and in this is prepared
to put time-expired United Kingdom
soldiers on the same footing as it's
own men. Other states are also
willing to extend to ex-service men
from the United Kingdom the same
advantages in land settlement as
they offer their own.
when this war ends we shall be
faced suddenly with the problem OF
handling great numbers of the S.
100000 soldiers who will be released
with changed ideals and changed
spirits. Unless something is ready
for them there will be great mis-
takes. We can take a lesson from
the emigration of $4,000 men from
the United Kingdom to the United
States after the Boer War"

BELGIUM'S RESTORATION
SOUGHT BY NEUTRALS
Complete Independence of Kingdom
to be Objec of Neutral
Call.

The Hague, Netherlands, June 20
|-(Cor. of the Associated Press)--
The complete restoration OF the in.
dependence of Belgium is the object
OF call to the neutrals of the
American republics, the three Scan
d.navian states, Switzerland. and
Spain, which has been issued over
the signatures of 120 university
pl cfessors, artists, writer's and other
" ell-known men of Holland.
It is declared that the government
and parliament OF the German EN-.
PIE, alone Of all the belligerents,
have officially declared that they will
enceavor at the conclusion of peace
to put an end to the independence OF
a Eeighbor state. Various utter
ances of the Imperial Chancellor
are quoted as bearing this out, and
are interpreted as meaning that
neither in a military nor economic
respect, nor even in the arrange
ment of such questions as the rela-
tionship between the two languages
of the country, is Belgium to be mis-
tress in her own house.
The call to the neutrals says the
whole world, with the exception OF
Germany and her allies, is convinced
that the robbery of any State what
ever of it's independence must be re-
garded as a crime and as a source OF
fresh wars. 1T seems to US neces-
sary," it continues, that this prin-
ciple shall now be uttered as the
emphatic demand of all neutral peo.
ples-necessary in order that those
contemplating an assault on small
neighbor may feel less inclination
thereto in the knowledge that such
assault will not go unpunished; nee.
essary, too, for the support of those
in Germany itself who detest the
annexation policy. The neutrals
have the right, duty and power to sit
in judgment where the defence OF
the highest interests of humanity is
concerned. They can refuse to main
tain relations with state which be.
forehand declares its intention to
use small - 1eishbor to pay the
score when the reckoning day
comes.''

THE COOPER PICNIC.

The Guernsey picnic held at the
Clara Cooper farm near Courtenay
Friday was the second annual
event of this kind. The attendance
was not as large as last year owing
to the impossible condition of the
roads leading to the farm.
Recent rains and lack of road
work have made auto travelling in
many parts of the county difficult if
not impossible for any great dis
tance. Teams were stationed near
the Cooper farm to pull out the
autos that were stuck in the mud.
Those who were present however.

THE FOURTH AT
SPRITW0OD LAKE
A Large Attendance and Big
Program Of Events.

Notwithstanding the heavy rain
Monday night the Fourth was cele-
brated at Spiritwood Lake by
very large attendance of people who
came from all parts of the county,
and adjoining counties.
The road makers this year can
not keep pace with the damage done
by frequent and heavy rains. Every
time a mud hole or low place is re-
paired, heavy rain spoils all the
work. There were many autos
stuck in the mud Tuesday and sew
eral farmers earned extra money
pulling cars out of holes and sloughs.
One farmer who started for the
lake was obliged to pull out of the
mud one after another of the autos
going to the same place, and he soon
had IL cars checked up as result
of his team work.
The day was pleasant and the
crowd enjoyed itself tremendously,
after facing the terrors of the un-
known mudholes, The program was
carried out as arranged, the ,princi-
pal event being an address by Hon.
w. C. Mcdowell of Marion, in the
afternoon. In the evening there was
a reading by Miss Lowe, and music
by the bands and Tunstall's Orches-
ira. Dancing at the pavilion was in
dulged in during the afternoon, ev-
ening and far into the morning. The
refreshment counters did flourish
ing business. There we're a number
of swimming matches, few fire
crackers and several dog fights. A
ball game between jamestown and
Rogers, with other stunts helped to
make a real Fourth of July and
Manager Karr of the Chautauqua as
sociation and his small army OF as
sistants were on the jump from day
light looking after the wants of the
visitors. In the ball game Rogers
carried off the honors.

couple of hours afterwards in the
fruitless efforts of four horses trying
to get the car back on shore. The
lake is now higher than it has been
for Is years, and part of the shore
line that was formerly safe for auto
travel, is now decidedly unsafe.
Manager Karr's attractions for
the Chautauqua are high class, II
the first numbers given Sunday and
Monday and Tuesday are any indi-
cation. The singing of the Chicago
Orchestra Sunday and Monday was

ever appeared here. The solos, duets,

GOSS OUT OF RACE.

Bismarck, July 2.-More COM
plete election returns show that for
mer Chief Justice Spaulding will be
the sixth man in the Supreme Court
Judiciary ballot at the November
election, the other five being Robin
election, the other being Robinson,
Birdzell, Fiske, Burke and Grace.
Goss and Adamson were eliminated.
The struggle for the judiciary elec-
ton in the fall will doubtless be in
teresting.
In addition to nominating their
entire state ticket the Non-Partisan
League nominated all but four of
their entire list of candidates to the
state legislature. They lost two SEN
ators and two representatives, but
expect to have a majority in both
houses.
Tax Commission Want Money.
Bismarck, July Geo. E. Wal
lace and Frank E. Packard, repre-
senting the tax commission. have
asked for writ of mandamus
against Carl o. Jorgenson to compe;
him to credit to the tax commission
on the auditors books the full ap-
preparation made by the 1911 legis-
lature for the support OF the tax
commission.
The tax commission has now ex-
hausted the clerk hire appropriation
made by the 1915 legislature. This
bill carried but $500 for clerk hire.
The 1911 bill appropriated $S,40O
per year.
Jorgenson, relying on the 1915
law, has refused to pay any more
money to the clerks in the commits
sion on the ground that there is no
money.

CARRANZA
C0NClLlATES

WASHINGTON, July 5.-Car-
ranza's reply to the last two
notes sent him by the United
States government was delivered
to the state department early to-
day by the Mexican embassy at
tache.
The reply, as announced yes
terday, is conciliatory in terms,
giving assurances of a desire to
reach friendly adjustment of
all difficulties between the two
countries.
AS soon as the translation Of
the Spanish text could be made
it was sent to the White House.
Until Secretary Lansing and
President Wilson have had op-
portunity to confer, there will be
no formal comment, but some
state department officials did not
attempt to conceal the fact that
they considered the note most
satisfactory, and likely to re-
move all danger of war.
The note is brief and free from
all superf1uous language of diplo-
macy.
The communication points to
the release of the American
troopers captured at Carrizal as
proof of the Mexican govern
ment's sincere desire to avoid a
conflict, and states as the out
standing issue the reasonable be-
lief of the United States that the
insecurity of it's frontier is the
source of the difficulty and, on
the other hand, the belief of the
Mexican government that the
presence of American troops in
Mexico is trespass on that coun-
try's sovereignty and the inn
mediate cause of the trouble.
In offering to consider a
"quick, practical way" the rem
edy which should be applied, the
note gives notice that Mexico has
accepted in principle the Latin
American offers of mediation,
and awaits information as to
whether the United States is dis
posed to accept mediation or is
still of the belief that the same
results may be obtained by direct
negotiations.

Later Report

BRITISH HEADQUARTERS,
FRANCE, July la terrific bonn
bardment preceding the attack
this morning lasted an hour and
q half. Fighting is developing
in intensity. The artillery bonn
hardment Of the last few days
was concentrated this morning
with a degree of fury and with
the number of guns which is un-
precedented in the region of
Albert and Somme, with the
French cooperating to the
south. ..
At 7:3O am, through clouds
of smoke and dust hanging over
the whole field as far as the eye
could see, the infantry sprung
from the trenches for an assault
over a front of twenty miles.
Already it has gained possession
of the first line of trenches and
the advance is continuing.
New British trench mortars,
which fire thirty-five shots a
minute, played a great part, in
cutting wire entanglements and
destroying trenches.
A large number of prisoners
were taken. Some prisoners
said the British curtain fire pre-
vented them getting food for the
last five days.
A British staff officer, who
witnessed the advance at the
junction of the French and
British lines, said the attack
was launched as though the men
were on parade.
The British have already cap
tured Serre Montaulan, the Ger
mans held Fricourt, Ovillers and
Beaumont Hamel.
The British have began a
fresh attack on Beaumont
Hamel.
There is an intense struggle
also in progress for the posses
sion of Contal-Aision, one end of
which the British hold, with Ger
mans at the other. The British
have taken Laborselle.
The French, cooperating to
the south, captured Curlu, and
Faviere woods.
All main first-line trenches are
reported taken. At some points
the operations now reach the
main second line.
The British moved again to a
strong position northwest of
Thiepval and are attacking
fiercely in an effort to surround
it. The important German posi-
tion at Fricourt may be cut off.

N0N-PARTISAN TICKET HAS
CLEAN SWEEP IN STATE
Every Candidate Endorsed by League Has
Been Nominated.

FARGO, N. D., June 30.-Re-
turns from the majority, or over
|two-thirds of the precincts of
the state, received at headquar-
ters of the Non-Partisan league
today, show that the entire ticket
has been nominated and the in
dications of the vote of the re-
manning precincts are that it will
greatly swell the figures of the
majorities.
1t is probable that Lynn j.
Frazier will have more votes for
governor than both his oppon-
ents, Burdick and Frame COM
bined. Figures received from
two-thirds of the precincts of
the state show Frazier 24,193,
Burdick 1924, Frame 1857.
These returns include all of
the towns and cities, and the re-
naming figures will be from the
rural precincts exclusively, and
which are expected to still furth-
er increase the leagues majori-
ties and pluralities. 1t is now
known that Frazir has over
1000 plurality over Burdick,
the next highest candidate. 1t
is believed that Frazier's plu-
rality will be from $4,000 to 49,
600 over Burdick.
In some precincts the remarkable
condition is seen Of every republican
vote being cast for the league ticket.
The success of the candidates is
seen in their big majorities. LANCER,
for attorney general, KoZitZky for
state auditor and Mcdonald for
school superintendent, have big leads
over their opponents.
In the supreme court race, it is
probable that Grace, Robinson and
Birdzell will be the high men and
their names will go to the ballot
with three other candidates, Burke,
Fisk and either Goss or Spaulding,
as the sixth candidate.
The legislature will probably have
majority of members endorsed by
the league in both houses. In only
one instance, in Barnes county where
Lee was defeated by Ployher, is this
known to be otherwise. The COM
plete returns will not be received for
several days, but the victory of the
farmers ticket is acknowledged to
be overwhelming in the primary con-
tests.
Election Notes.
One of the surprises in the cleo
ton was the remarkable run of A. T..
Cole of Fargo for district judge
against Charles A. Pollock. The
race was close and both names will
go on the fall ballot.
C. B. Little of Bismarck went
down in the Non-Partisan landslide
in the race for the state senate. He
was beaten by C. D. King of MenOkan
and all three Non-Partisan candi-
dates for the house were also nom
mated in Burleigh county.
In the United States senatorial
race, McCumber leads Hanna by s.
900 to 10000. Governor Hanna is
the low man in the race, at present.
Nestos has made strong gains, max
ing him the second man in the con-
test. There was little scratching
done in any Of the rural precincts.
The vote shows that, in point Of
Organization, determination, and
prompt action, the farmers Of North
Dakota have astonished the whole
country in registering their emphatic
demands. The following is the state
republican ticket nominated Wednes-
day:
