Governor. Lynn j. Frazier, Secre'

feed at Camp Frazier, last evening.
They attended at the special invita-

joyed a menu including roast beef,
fried potatoes and other good things
which might have graced the table
of any high class hotel. Camp Fra
zier they found in fine shape. The
boys are comfortably housed in tents
with board floors which are partly
walled with planks and provided with
stoves. The location of the camp Is
excellent, and all of the soldiers en-
trenched there are enjoying the best
of health and waxing strong and
hearty. The governor and his party
looked into every nook and corner OF
the camp last night, met all Of the
boys and had a fine time. City water
was piped to Camp Frazier yesterday,
and the task of toting water in pals,
which none Of the boys relished, no
longer is necessary.

The Twin City press has hardly
been fair to the Minnesota League,
a party incorporated under the

this from the tone of 1.-The Non
Partizan,' the official organ pub
lished in St. Paul, Minnesota.
Nothing too severe can be said
against Mr.. Townley, who, while
he may be speaking for the party
originating in North Dakota, is
perhaps not even truly a repre-
sentative of the rank and file of
the party in North Dakota, and
certainly is not of the party in
Minnesota. The Twin City dailics
have made no discrimination evil

tonic success in the outcome. The
present situations mean prolonga-

greater sacrifices for us at home.
It means however greater determ

bitter end. - And if the tide Of
righteous Indignation rises higher

imposition of the most extreme
penalties upon the Central Powers

settlement has been reached. Presl-
dent Wilson having failed to
awaken the German masses to
arise and demand democracy,
should arbitrarily dictate the terms
of peace, and they should include
the removal Of the Houses of
Hohenzollerns and Hopsburgh
from Europe, and internment up
on the most desolate spots on the
face of the globe.
The rulers of Turkey and Bull

vengeance of Serbians and Ar

penalty should follow.

the latest evidences that she has
never kept her word and never
