SyrdnS Of Fargo and
Moorhedd Donate For
Soldiers Smoke Fund

After subscribing literally to the
American Red Cross, purchasing
heavily in Liberty Loan bonds, and
giving freely to the army Y. M. G.
A. war work fund, Fargo and Moor
head Syrians have again come to
the front, this time for the smoke
fund for American soldiers in France.
A committee of five, w. NJ. Fer
ris, w. A. Neima, s. Ferris, B. Abe
dallah and Sam Alhage, after listing
their own subscriptions, took the list
out among their countrymen, get
ting $31, and with 81 subscription
from DR.. s. j. Hill, Scottish Rite
secretary, turned in $32, giving
the fund a substantial boost.
There's no hyphen connected with
the Syrians of Fargo and Moorhead.
They are Americans clear through.
Mrs. Houston Rae. formerly Of
Hunter, N. D., but now OF WetasSivin,
Alta, sends in IS for the fund, and
in her letter says: Although ! now
live in Canada, my loyalty to the
states is as sincere as ever"
Total contributions today were
$37.O1, the extra cent coming from
refused change, which brings the
fund up to $741.39. nearly three
fourths Of the way to the $1,000
mark.

MANUFACTURERS LIMIT
SUPPORT IN WAR WORK
Liberty Loan, Red Cross and "Y"
War Work Are Commended
in Resolutions Adopted.

Resolutions pledging support only
to the Liberty loan. the Red Cross
and Army Y. M. G. A. war work by
direct contributions, and condemn
ing entertainments of any kind
promoted for raising funds for any
Of these functions were adopted by
the Fargo Manufacturers associa-
ton at its annual meeting Thursday,
as follows:
Whereas, it is important for the
conservation both Of the energy and
finance that methods of raising
money for war purposes be confined
to thoroughly economic lines, and to
as few organizations as possible, and
Whereas, we believe that the
Liberty Loan fund, the Red Cross
and Y. M. G. A. war work are fully
prepared and competent to take
care of all the demands for funds
or relief Of any sort that may arise
as incident to the present war con-
dition,
Therefore, be it resolved that we
the members of the Manufacturers
association Of Fargo, pledge our
selves to confine our war relief eff
forts to these three functions. We
further pledge ourselves that any
moneys we may devote to these pur-
poses will be given directly, and that
we viii not countenance or approve
of any entertainments of any kind
which are promoted for the purpose
of raising funds for any one OF these
functions.
Believing. that there is a large
economic waste OF overhead expense
and physical energy, that, IL applied
directly to war relief measures
would produce a larger and more ef-
ficient result than can be obtained
through the medium Of entertain
ments.

WEBCTER'S REPLY TO
HAYNE FITTING NOW

Judge A. T. Cole Of the Third
judicial district, stated this afternoon
that the reply OF Webster to Hayne
OF South Carolina, in the senate OF
the United States, Jan. s, 1880,
should be OF special interest at this
time when so many people in the
United States seem to think that
their "self-opinion" or "self-will,"
should prevail as to the present war.
This idea, according to Judge Cole,
would Immediately bring anarchy 70
the United States and put il out OF
power, as Russia is practically at the
present time. Judge Cole holds that
Webster's reply is an education as
to what government means and re-
quires and surely teaches a lesson
now that many self-willed men and
women seem to need, who, IN this
time OF crisis, would seemingly want
to substitute for a governmental
policy for this country. their own
imaginative, unframed and misin-
formed intellects, as a guiding power
to control the nations part in the
world war.
In the great debate between the
statesmen, Judge Cole calls atten-
ton to the following, relative to the
government and the people:
In another OF the South Carolina
addresses, having promised that the
crisis requires all the concentrated
energy OF passion an open resist
ance to the laws OF the Union is
advised. Open resistance to the
laws, then, is the constitutional
remedy, the conservative power OF

doctrines reach for. the redress OF

Food Bill Opens 5000, 900 Acres.

Denver-Through an amendment
adopted in the food control bill which
passed the United States Senate, 16.-
100000 acres in Colorado become
available for entry under the 640-acre
homestead law passed last year. I'm
der that law it was provided all unre-
served lands should be classified but
funds for a classification have not
been available and no entries have
been permitted. Passage of the
amendment will mean big rush of new
settlers to the 16,000,00O acres avail
able in Colorado. The food bill now
goes to the house, where the Fall
amendment is favored by Scott Fer
ris, chairman of the public lands COM
mittee. Since January, applications
under the 64O-acre homestead &C. have
been made for 100000 of the 16,00O,-
COO acres in Colorado subject to entry.
The amendment makes these applica-
tions effective without further author
ization.

MASTER SCOUT BURIED
LAST TRIBUTE PAID TO MEMORY
OF BUFFALO BILL.
Ten Thousand Attend Services on
Mountain Top When Body 10
Placed in Last Resting Place.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver-Last tribute was paid
Sunday, June Sd, by a vast assem-
blage to the memory OF Col. William
F. Cody buffalo BilD when the body
of the famous scout and plainsman
was laid to rest in a grave blasted
from the solid rock on top of Lookout
mountain, twenty miles from Denver
More than 10000 people went from
Denver to Lookout mountain by auto
mobile and electric train. For four
hours before the ceremony at the
grave there was steady procession
Of automobiles winding up the noun
tain side toward the summit, far
above the plateau on which Denver
is situated. More than 1000 persons,
1t was estimated, who had gone by
trolley to Golden, at the foot of the
mountain, climbed steep trails or
trudged along the automobile road to
Wildcat Point, where the burial was
held.
The ceremony at the grave was not
elaborate, only the Masonic ritual be-
ing used, and was under the direction
Of the Golden Masonic lodge. A dele
cation of Knights Templar from
North Platte, Neb.. where Col. Cody
held his membership, acted as an es-
cort for the body at the grave.
AS the last shovelful of earth was
thrown into the grave bugler sound
ed taps. When the last note had died
out battery of Colorado National
Guard artillery fired salute Of thir-
teen guns. AS the last shot ceased
reverberating among the mountains.
the Stars and Stripes broke out from
flag pole at the grave and the burial
ceremony was ended.

Washington.-The Senate commit.
