Emmons County record. [volume] (Williamsport, D.T. [i.e. N.D.]) 1884-current, 1917-07-12

The other evening the Bismarck
Tribune called attention to near sedi-
tious utterances translated from q
Dickinson newspaper printed in the
German language. For several months
we have heard rumors of pretty rough
stuff being printed in foreign language
newspapers, either to curry favor with
that class of readers or to satisfy the
rabid pro- German feelings of the pub
fishers. We have had reason to be-
lieve that much of the unrest appar-
ant among those who cannot. talk the
English language, or read it, has come
from such newspapers. One reason
why the Record is more than anxious
during the war to have little German
matter each week is to attempt to
counteract the evil effects of just such
conditions. Most of our foreign-speak-
ing population are upright, honest,
Woodworking people and only misin-
formation and lack of chance to keep
up with conditions as is possible for
English-reading people causes them
to appear somewhat out of sympathy
with their government. Experience
is showing US, however, that most of
those who are dependent on this coun-
try for chance to make living and
to rear family aren't being led very
far estray by German-inspired arti-
Giles in German-language newspapers.

With the nation getting down to
war conditions, the first thing to he
81 r:ously hit is the liquor business.
Nothing but beer and light wines will
be allowed anywhere in the United
States hereafter, and nearly half the
nation will be absolutely dry. Per-
sonal liberty of the individual doesn't
amount to much when it runs counter
to the welfare of the community or
the nation. Socialists and others
should take notice.

what Solomon walled over when he
had only small bunch Of parchments

up with the latest; we end up by lay
ing hands only on what appeals to US.
And this Is wisdom.-The Publishers

Rare Impartiality Shown by
Bankrupt Head Of Ncnpartisan
League in Liabilities

Oct 25 is the date set by Referee
H.. F. OHare for the hearing in Bis
marck on the bankruptcy petition
filed by President A. c. Townley Of
the Nonpartisan league and his broth
er, c.. F. Townley. 1t is probable that
Townley's creditors will demand his
appearance here at that time. lnas-
much as his present residence is more
than $50 miles distant from Bismarck,
under the bankruptcy laws his credi-
tors will be required to pay his ex-
penses to Bismarck and return, should
he insist upon availing himself of his
privileges as a bankrupt. If ToW1ley
is required to appear, some interest
ing revelations in regard to his flier
in flax may be anticipated, it is said
A complete schedule of the liaol!l-
ties of Bankrupt Townley, insolvent
head of the Nonpartisan league, filed
with Referee H. F. O'Hare. indicates
that he displayed rare impartiality in
sticking Beach business friends. The
manner in which he pyramided liabil-
tiles in Golden Valley county reveals
a hrge amount of ability of certain
character. Cassie Chadwick, appar-
entity. had nothing on Bankrupt Town

and to part with their coin in return
for possible profits from the widest
