HARVESTERS COME
MEN WHO WOULD GET STAKE"
BEFORE WINTER ARRIVE
WORK IN HAY FIELDS.

The big drive" of harvest hands
to the South Dakota grain fields is
on, advance contingents of men who
are in this section TO remain at least
until small grain is threshed having
arrived yesterday and today In
Cluded in the first arrivals of late
summer farm workers are both white
and colored men. A few found em-
ployment Immediately upon their ar
rival, and others hope to get work in
the hay fields until small grain is
ready TO cut
The first harvesters to arrive are
not of the bum" type, but are, for
the most part, husky young men,
with sufficient money to tide them
over until they can find places
Some called at the Madison Mer-
chants association offices, where

tablished free employment bureau
Positions were found for the first
men who called at the offices, and
more requests for help were expected

Abundant Crop.

the present week, and the crop is said
TO be large and of unusually good
quality. Men in the hay fields re-
ceiye $3.50 a day and board, about
the same wage paid a year ago
Two harvest hands who arrived
this morning told that they had been
working in Kansas They told that
wages for men in the fields there are
slightly higher than they were last
summer, and they predicted that
more money would be offered men
here this year than ever before
They gave in support OF their theory
the strong demand that will soon be
made and the high wages that will
be offered for help by Canadian
farmers, as a result of the scarcity
Of help due TO the enlisting of thou
sands of young men there. They
also pointed to the number of Amer
leans who have enlisted for duty on
the Mexican border, and to the pros
poets for generous yields of grain
throughout the northwest.
Grain Cutting soon.
While much depends on the wealth
er. il is thought by farmers here that
the cutting of barley and oats will
probably be general about the last of
next week or the first of the follow
ing week Under ordinary condi-
tions, it is told. wheat will be ready
for the binder about August /.
While the first influx Is not as
great as in many former years, rail

hands are arriving i'm and departing

bers are heading for North Dakota.
where a majority seem to believe the
largest wages will be paid. From
now until after the middle of next
month, it is told, few men who bear
the earmarks of workers will be
"unloaded" from freight trains, re-
gardless of whether they have mon
ey TO pay their way.

Washington, Jan. 24.-Careful inves-

when Col. Cunningham is nominated,
if, in fact, this is done, will inform the

is said here that this nomination will
not "get by" Senator Smith and live

Congressman Finley and Senator
Tillman some time ago agreed that
Col. Cunningham was satisfactory TO

DISPATCH NEW DRAFT
ON LUSITANIA CASE
Ambassador Bernstorff and Secretary
Lansing Draw Up Final Terms
For Settlement.

Washington, Jan. 26-The Lusitiania
agreement was redrafted today 10y
Count Won Bernstorff, the German am
bassador, and Secretary Lansing, to,
represent the views of the United
States and was forwarded to the Ber-
lin foreign Office. Word of whether the
German government will accept it in
!ts present tentative form is expected
in about a week. !
The last proposal from Germany was
understood to be unacceptable to the
United States because it did not admit
full liability for the lives of all the
neutrals lost in the destruction Of the
liner, although the German govern
r.,ent agreed to pay as matter OF
friendship to the United States. This
Government contends the claims should
be paid as matter of law and Of
right.
If, as is intimated today, the new
draft is fully acceptable to the United
States there is no reason for belieV-
ing it will not be acceptable to Ger
many, because Count Won Bernstorf is
known to be acting under wide latitude
Conferred by his government for the
negotiations.

SOUTH CAROLINIAN TELLS OF
PART. OF PEACE PILGRIMAGE
He Suffered From Cold in Scandi-
naEia-NO Sign OF Peace
Yet.

Columbia, Jan. 24-Andrew J. Be
thea, lieutenant governor, who return
ed yesterday from his peace trip to
Europe as the guest of Henry Ford,
gave out the following interview:
From the day I left New York till
my return yesterday my trip was a
continuous round of trying but thrill
ing experiences. 1t seems almost like
miracle that I am left to tell the
story.
& found the bitter cold in the Scan
dinavian countries too much for me
and in Sweden l nearly succumbed to
its rigor. 1t was here in Stockholm
that was seriously sick for several
days, causing me to miss an early
boat on my return trip home. A ter
rible storm at sea still further delayed
my arrival.
''The trip over was without particul-
lar incident except for the two days
and nights in the harbor at Kirkwall
when we were prisoners Of British
m2r-cf-war. 1t is not an easy feeling
to have torpedo boats lurking around
and pointing their guns at you, but
that is the penalty all have to pay who
pass that way these days England
has literally swept the seas and fixed
the boundary line beyond which no
ship dare cross till she gives the WORD.
The danger zone in which many mines
are afioat also gives you tlckllsh
feeling and is not good for the nerves
if you can not sleep.

YOU can not visit Germany as [ did

they are a wonderfully skiilful and ef-
fcient people-witnout feeling too that
some of this efficiency would be good
thing for America.
"From Germany I passed on through
Holland by way of The Hague and
crossed the North sea to England. The
North sea is literally a network of
submarines and mines and no ship
dare to cross in the night time. The
mine sweepers followed our ship for
miles and miles and saw the big guns

Carson speak on the compulsion enlist

ginning to realize that it is at war and
both the powers that be and the peo-
pie seem now resolved to fight to

Germany and England who had been
or were getting ready to go to the
front and the general opinion is that
both sides are planning for a mighty
drive-a supreme effort in the spring.
"EveryWhere l went l was shown the
greatest consideration and kindness.

IS some division of sentiment on the
question of the war But it seems to
me that in Norway, Denmark and
Holland sympathy was with the allies,
while in Sweden it was with Germany.
Sweden has an old grudge against
R71 sia and the other neutral coun'
tries are afraid of the growing mill
tary power in Germany-of the domi-
nant heel, they say.

'In Copenhagen left the Ford party

Not a Wasted Effort.
"But you ask, WHAT of the Ford
peace expedition? Did it do any good?
Measured by motive and purpose, my
answer is emphatically Yes No one
can measure influence. No one has
ri.ht to say that a movement such as
this is of no avail. If you believe as |
do that every good word spoken and
every good act done is taken into ac-
count and blesses somebody some
where at sometime, then think that a
movement for world peace, however
futile it may seem, must be credited
with being worth while. Of Henry
Ford as a bi9-hearted, unselflsh man
too much can not be said in praise
He has set the world, especially rich
men, a great example. He is willing
to SPEND his fortune, as he told me, for
naaca and he has demonstrated to the
word mis- interest in a great cause.
Then. too, the public must remember
that his peace efforts are not finished
and no cne can tell what may yet be
ACCOMPLISHED. l heard him say that If
he could only scratch the SURFACE in
the moyement, if ne could only end the
war a day sooner he would be willing
to make any sacrifice Of money and
means at his command.
cat any rate the Ford expedition has
caused the nations of the earth to
think and talk for a little while OF
peace. That in itself is worth while
for it carries with it the wonderful
power of suggestion In this time OF
madness when a world is ablaze with
war-it is a good thing to think of
peace. talk of peace and to work for
peace. The world would be much
better place in which to live if we had
more men of the type of Henry Ford.
And there would be an end TO war"
