BAXTER MAN MosBED.
Fred chollett's Attitude Towards War
Causes Three Hour Demons tration.

Newton July 1.-THE town OF Bax-
ter staged preliminary for her Fourth
Of July celebration last Saturday night.
For more than three hours patriotism
ran riot" In tho town and men-who
had been hitherto, talking against lib
erty loans, Red Cross work and other
warSactivities were as scarce as hens
teeth" Fred Chollett, farmer living
some five miles southeast Of Baxter,
was ground beneath the patriotic steam
roller and was mighty glad to get away
without more serious damage TO his
person than he received.
II has been known for some time
that Mr.. Chollett's heart was not in
the right place on the war-altho he
has never been accused Of being a pro-
German He has been reported to the
council Of defense several times. but
people have thought that he would
finally right himself without an appeal
to his cuticle.
Mr.. Chollett precipitated an argu-
ment on the war about o'clock last
Saturday night on the streets of Bax-
ter. He soon had a crowd around him
and soon his statements became 30
strong that Jay Stinson, son Of John
Stinson, stepped to the front. peeled
his coat and began operating on Chol-
lett. The latter was soon outclassed
and made run for the Herzog res
taurant for shelter. as the crowd was
beginning to talk serious violence. He
finally escaped from there to the Noah
g. Mccullough hardware and furniture
store but he was soon captured.
In order to spare Cholled from seri-
Gus hurt the town marshal took him in
charge-the crowd, then some 200
strong. demanding that the flag be
saluted and kissed. This was done and
Mr.. Chollett in his eagerness to declare
his patriotism made patriotic speech
and had his small daughter brought to
the crowd and asked that she be per-
mitted to recite that famous war poem
by Wilbur Nesbit-"Your Flag and My
Flag" The request was granted.
Chollett, badly bruised up as to his
physique. was ushered to his auto by
the town marshal and sent home thor
oughly repentant.

May Rally Socialists.
In the opinion of members OF the
state council the Nonpartisan League
will affiliate itself With the socialist
party and will enlist the support Of
various factions inclined>> toward So
cialism so that in the course Of time
they may become so strong that the
republican and democratic parties may
have TO unite in order to prevent the
success Of this third party. At the
present time however, the socialist
party has few followers and in only
two vi three ot the larger Counties OF
the state did they poll a sufficient vote
in the last election to entitle them to
Put UP a ticket in the recent primary.
Their vote in these few counties in
the last. primary was very light.
1t is difficult for many of the leaders
here, however to believe that the Nom
partisan League can rally much OF d
following in Iowa. They are making
their appeal thus far largely to farm
ers but the Iowa farmers as class
have no special grievance or no spe-
cial legislation which they want
which they could not obtain direct thru
