ELLSWORTH FLAyS
WILSON POLICIES
MIN OTA CONGRESSMAN
KNOCKS THE PROPS FROM
"PEACE AND PROSPERITY"

With those who fail to understand
how remote have been the chances of
war between the United States and
any of the warning nations of Europe.
the slogan: "Wilson kept US out of
war; carries great weight and is dan
gerous. Such, in substance, was the
statement of Congressman F. E. Ellis
worth of Mankota, Minn., who spoke
in the interests of the republican
campaign at the court house Friday
evening.
It was pointed ou, that England
could not afford anything but friendly
relations with the United States as we
are England's chief source of war
supplies.
Germany did not dare break peace
with this country as that would put
US in perfect position to supply Ger
many's enemies with everything they
needed.
The congressman vigorously attack
the course of the administration as
weak in protection to American citi-
zens both on the high seas and in
Mexico. He traced step by step what
he termed the contradictory policy of
the. president in dealing with Mexican
affairs.
Touching upon the question of pros
perity, the speaker, quoted figures
comparing exports for ten months OF
war and ten months before the war
to show that the present inflated con-
dition of business was due almost
wholly to war conditions.
The congressman laid the chief
stress of his argument on the tariff
issue, pointing out that unless the
were returned to complete
power, and a tariff schedule reestab-
lished high enough to protect Amer
ican markets and American manufac-
lures and insure the American stan
dard Of living, there was a period of
serious depression awaiting the coun-
try after the war is over.

New Department
For Our Readers

In this issue The Graphic in.
PRODUCES for the approval of its
readers new department devoted
to the news and interests of the
schools of Williams county. under
the heading, with the County
Schools"
The Graphic believes there is
no more vital force in the social
and industrial growth of the
county and state than the public
schools; that a newspaper can
perform no higher service than
to cooperate with those working
in and for the schools.
Williams county is making re-
markable educational progress.
The reports of state school off,
cials leave no room for doubt
that our schools, both rural and
city, stand in the front rank.
In the new department in this
issue will be found an apprOxi-
mately complete list of the rural
teachers of the county, also list
of the schools that have just
been designated as classified
under the state aid law.

ARTES|AN FLOW
VALUABLE FIND
FLOWING WELLS OF GREAT AD-
VANTAGE TO RIVER RANCH
ERS-BURDICK GUSHER

Because of the faith of two men,
both typical of those who are devel-
oping the wealth of western North
Dakota, Williams county asset of
great value was discovered, when q
fine flow of water was tapped on U.
L. Burdick's farm two miles east Of
Williston, October 9Th.
j. w. Barrett, who has followed
with great success the business of
drilling artesian wells in the south
that flowing wells could be secured in
souri, river: U. L. Burdick, with
characteristic courage, was willing to
take chance on such venture so
Mr.. Barret shipped drilling outfit
here and left it in charge of his son.
In remarkably short time a four inch
hole was sunk to depth of 655 feet
and a flow was found of sufficient
pressure to lift the water 80 feet
above the surface of the ground.
Value of Warm Water
The water is of good quality and
comes out of the ground at tenn
perature that is ideal for stock, es-
pecially in cold weather. Mr.. Bar
rett states that water from such a
we'll, allowed to flow through an open
tank, will not freeze in any weather.
According to live stock authorities the
value of comparatively warm water
for stock in winter can scarcely be
estimated. Stock will drink more
than they would of icy water and less
Of the energy derived from their food
is required to bring the water drunk
to the temperature of their bodies.
Besides the advantage in temperature
the water is always ready and pump
ing and ice chopping is done away
with.
Mr.. Barrett is confident that flow
ing wells can be had at almost any
point in the river valley where the
altitude is not too great. If he is
correct it is another important ad-
vantage added to the natural features
that make this one of best Of the best,
as stock raising district.
Other stock men will have Mr..
Barrett try for wells on their river
ranches.

Good Support
For Athletics

The student body of the schools
have responded with enthusiasm to
the financial support of football for
the year. They have subscribed for
season tickets to the extent Of S1O5.25
by far the most liberal support the
high school has ever given it's team.
To make the needed 1925. for the sea-
sons expense, it was hoped that one
hundred season tickets at dollar and
a quarter each could be sold about
town to business men and others. But
the fact that the games are scheduled
on Saturdays, the busiest day Of the
week, prevented more than a meager
sale. The. students will themselves
undertake other means of meeting
the approaching deficit.

George Didn't Do 1t
Hence These Tears

What is the most expensive
mistake you ever made? The
prize for the best answer will be
announced after the editor sees
how good your story is.
"The biggest mistake ever
made" said Geo. w: New
ton, was when l passed up an
Offer of 16O acres Of land in the
heart of the present Wilfston,
from Fourth street north, for .
measelly 500. and had the
money, too"
"A man named Aderson filed
on the quarter section" contin.
ued Mr.. Newton, "and afterward
lost his life in a well. A fellow
named landau was the sole heir.
When the klondyke gold fever
swept over the country landau
was crazy to join . party and
90. He begged me to give him
the seven hundred he needed.
Would I do it? Not me-we
wanted . new house."
"How much is the land worth
now? Somewhere about . half
million" And George left the
drug store whistling. Certainly,
George, not the drug store.
