THE PROGRESS or THE WAR.

The progress on the western front has
been one continuous forward march by
the Allies. Never since the war started
has the western army been 30 busy at
changing bases in their forward march
as they have been the last month and it
begins to look as though the resistance
. of the Germans Is broken. The fam
GUS Hindenberg line which stood like a.
stone wall all last year has been crossed
IN several places. Although the fight
ing ssesere at several points reports show
thatsin every case the enemy is being
thrust back with heavy losses. .l5 NJ

hled with the secretary OF state, the Non.
partisan party Of North Dakota owns q
controls ls8 newspapers in tho state.
Every body knows that these papers
were purchased through money sub
|cribed BY farmers II: different localities
where these papers circulate, save the
daily which Is TO be launched at Grand
Forks which is being financed By
farmers ali over the state. Considerable
Of this stock is being held by farmers Of
this county.
The average weekly newspaper incor-
poration is for Oil, 400. The stock is
divided into $50 shares common at q
each. and 1.o5o shares Of preferred at
80 each. y, Il. .35sI IA
The articles stipulate: That the COM
mon stock shall have vote per share.
That the preferred stock shall carry
one vote 20 each holder Of stock. lrre-
Ispective Of the amount he holds.
That the common stock shall be re-
stricted to issuance to the promoters
and organizers in payment for their SER
VICES.
The league promoters-it has now a
corps Of them get 250 shares Of stock
with $50 votes for the league.
But there would have TO be $50 pre-.
fered stockholders to balance the
leagues voting power. AS there are
sl06O0 in preferred stock, the average
sale Of preferred stock.is the small sum
Of S42. It is obvious that the number Of
preferred stockholders only under extra
ordinary conditions reaches number
sufficient to balance the leagues voting
power aud to all llintents and purposes
the leagues control is. absolute and
without . cent Of cost except travelling
Iexpensives and pay for solicitation.
But the league goes further-in organ
izing these newspapers in order to main
aain control. The directors on the small
paper number three, named in the
articles and always solid league men,
often connected with the st. Paul head
quarters. Sometimes they are ordinary
organizers, with one and sometimes two
local directors. These, however,, are
also tested" men. The articles Of in.
corporation say: '1@15
That at any time, with or without
cause. majority of the board of direct.
tors may remove any officer or director" J"
Thus absolute control Of the paper is
vested IN two men-and the league has
those two men. A recalcitrant farmer
or deserterr Of the Big Boss may be sum-
marily dismissed, justly or unjustly.
But. fnther still, and here's the exact
language:
ARTICLE So guard against litiga-
ton BY entrenched wealth, the directors
may buy the stock of any stockholder by
rendering him the par value thereof,
and accrued dividends with 10 percent
premium; and such stockholder shall
cease to- have any futher interest in the
corporation.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness. and
that is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
Deafness is caused by an infamed condition
of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inhamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and when
It IS entirely closed, Deafness is the result;
this tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever. Many
cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which
is an infamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot be
cured by Halls Catarrh Medicine. Circulars
free. All Druggists, Use.

Appeals to Farmers .


In an appeal to the farmers to put their
savings into government war savings GER
tificstes, Secretary of Agriculture Hous-
ton says:
sit is the patriotic duty OF every citi-
zen who is in position to do so to invest
in ar-ssvings and thrift stamps and
thereby help this nation to win this war
The purchase OF even a twenty-five cent
thrift stamp is definite contribution to
this end.
"War-savings and thrift stamps foster
the habit of thrift in small expenditures,
make it possible for nearly every one to
purchase what are in reality small govern
ment bonds, and offer a unique oppor-
tunity to the people at once to help their
government and to economic conven-
iently for the purchase of the best invest
ment securities in the world.
"To win this war we must have both
men and money. l know that every
farmer wants to do everything in his
power for the nation in this day OF trial.
He will not only labor to produce the
necessary food stuffs, but will also gener-
ously contribute of his means to make it
posi- BILE for the men at the front to achieve
victory. am confident that the farmers
OF the land will not permit any other class
to take the leadership in supporting the
government in this crisis, financially or
Otherwise"
