Canada Offers
I6O Acres Land
Free to FarmHands
Bonus of Western Canada Land to
Men Who Assist i'm Maintain
ing Needed Grain Pro-
duction.

The Demand for Farm Labor In
Canada is Great. AS an inducement
to secure the necessary help at once,
Canada will give one hundred and
sixty acres of land free as home
stead and allow the time of the farm
laborer, who has filed on the land to
apply as residence duties, the same
as if he actually had lived on 1t. An
other special concession is the reduc-
ton of one year in the time to COM
plete duties. Two years instead or
three as heretofore but only to men
working on the farms for at least six
months in 1917. This appeal for
farm help is in no way connected with
enlistment for military service but
solely to increase agricultural out
put. A wonderful opportunity to Sc
cure farm and draw good wages at
the same time. Canadian Govern
ment will pay all fare over one cent
per mile from st. Paul and Duluth
to Canadian destinations. lnforma-
ton as to low railway rates may be
had on application to

DROWNED.

The body of Robert Chester Riley, IA
years old, son of Burt Riley, of Bethel,
was found in Blackman's pond, Red
ding, Tuesday. In company with his
father the boy went fishing Saturday
night. The boy disappeared during the
night and his father supposed he had
returned home. 1t is supposed that
the boy walked into the pond acct
dentally in the darkness.
Saved From Gas.
Miss Elizabeth Love OF Stamford
narrowly escaped death from illunin-
ating gas, Tuesday, in her room. She
was i'll Monday, and Tuesday, and on
Tuesday she made cup of tea on a
gas stove in the room. The stop cock
which governs the flow of gas in the
gas stove and the one which regulates
the flow of gas in the gas-jet for illu-
mfnating purposes are so close to-
gether that it would be a simple mat
ter for the woman, when she turned
or the gas-stove supply accidentally
to open the gas-jet stop-cock. This
apparently is what happened.
Killed BY Train
John Olfvett. farm hand was in

Attempted Suicide.
George Chagares of Stamford. a
Greek, about 25 yeare of age, unmar-
ried, attempted suicide Tuesday after
noon, in his lodging place, by inhaling
illuminating gas. He was discovered
in time to save his life.

Chain SYSTEM y
is PROGRAM OF
GERMAN AGENTS
Arguments" They Use
Against War Exposed
By Secret Service

The secret service of the United
States deserves both branches of it's
name; it works and it keeps it's mouth
closed. But if those public enemies
whom it foilss and defeats choose to
chatter, the service does not always
gag them; and so far as is known
it has made no effort to suppress the
following facts about the Kaiser's
present propaganda in this coun-
try:
Every German spy and sympathiz-
er is Instructed to pick out two men
whom he can trust and talk to them
after this fashion:
!. /. This is a Wall street war;
war of the interests" ct will be
news to most of US that Wall street
sank the Lusitania and ordered
American ships off the sea-
2. why should we fight Eng
lands battles?" ignoring the fact
that for the present, at least, England
and France are fighting ours.)
8. I'VE must stop the export of
munitions and food instantly (Thus
doing for the Kaiser what his ex-
pensive fleet and murderous submar
ines have failed to do.)
A. There's no need of going to
Europe to fight; let the Germans
alone till they come over here" (The
Kaiser knows perfectly that three
months campaign in the neighbor
hood of Me- York or Philadelphia
would cost the United States more
blood, tears, and treasure than two
years war in Europe.)
When the two men thus chosen
have been filled to the neck with these
arguments" each of them is to go
out and get two more, and SO on, ad
infnitum. There are other points
in the game of sowing dissension be-
tween ourselves and our. allies, but
those given in quotataion marks above
are the main ones. When you hear
or read such stuff, you know who in
spires it, Chicago Journal.

RUSSIAN REVOLUTION

The scenes enacted during the
French revolution are being repeated
today in Russia, and already there are
mutterings among the people demand
ing the life of the former Gar, as the
French proletariat demanded the life
of those who had ruled and ruinedI
then1s The meagre dispatches coming
from Russia tell of the Cars stoicism
in his present condition as prisoner
in the Alexandrofsky palace, from
where but three months ago he di-
rected the destinies of 10000, 900
people. But simple imprisonment does
not seem to satisfy the now free peo-
pie of Russia. They demand punish
ment, exile to Siberia, where he sent
so many of his former subjects, or
death. The hotbed of the demand
for punishment is Saratov and the
placards which recently appeared
there upon which were written in
Red letters seTrial for Nicholas H.
have been spread throughout Russia.
Meanwhile the ex-Czar and his family
are being closely watched and pre-
vented from communica ting with each
other; And even those who are keep
ing guard over them are being watch
ed. Nicholas sees his children at GER
tain times, his eonsort at others. New
gether. Nicholas still wears his mill
tary uniform, he reads the morning
and evening papers, digs in the gar
dens takes walks about the palace
grounds, accompanied by an officer,
land does his best to get news of the
| military operations. Nothing else
seems to interest him, not even the
fate of his house or his Immediate
family. The former Czarina reads reli-
gious works. She is said to be fana-
tical on the subject. The children
make bandages for the wounded. They
are all shut off from the outside
world and whatever knowledge they
gain of the affairs of the world in
general or Russia in particular is
through the daily papers. The re-
gime at the palace prison is very Sc
| we're. Every step the prisoners take
is watched by dozen eyes. Mean
while their fate hangs in the balance
land rests with the Russian people.

To Raise Regimentala Fund

b. Co. "A has definitely decided to
take up the task of raising the Stew
ems County apportionment of the reg
mental fund for the Stevens county
boys at Camp Dodge, and N. Vinje,
Herb. Hanson, Guy Stewart, C. r.
Wollthan and Andrew Olson have
been appointed a committee to take
charge of this work. The fund will
be apportioned among the villages
and townships of the county, and
committees in various sections of the
county will be asked to help.
Six hundred dollars will be raised
to assist in giving the boys regi-
mental fund. One use for the regi-
mental fund is we'll shown in a letter
from Arnold Vinje, who tells about
having a regular turkey dinner ban
quet last Sunday, the extra deli
cacies having been purchased from
the regimental fund. He says that
his company has a fund of $500.
After the fund is once started the
boys keep it up themselves, the prin-
cipal source of funds being the pro-
fits from the regimental store.
