TWO FARGOANS ARRESTED:
ELECTIONEERING CHARGED

Acting Clerk Of Court D. A. Nc
Laren and Leonard L. Thorsell were
arrested last week on a warrant issued
by Judge Cole of Fargo charging
them with electioneering in voting
places during the recent primary. It
is alleged that the defendants violated
the laws by passing out the so-called
~loyalty ticket" to voters who entered
the booths to vote.
The prosecution was started by As
sistant General Bronson on the COM
plant Of a Fargo citizen.
Widespread complaint was made on
election day that many election Off
Gals in Fargo were electioneering and
the attorney generals Office intends to
conduct vigorous prosecutions wherever
the evidence justfies such action, as it
feels this is an offense particularly
dangerous to the security of our poll
teal institutions.

Old Gang Concentrating Against su.

Although the Old Gang politicians
do not expect to elect Doyle, they are
making a desperate effort to defeat
Harry A. Bronson, candidate for che
Supreme Court endorsed by the Re-
publican party, and are concentrating
their strength behind Judge Charles
Fisk.
The Old Gang politicians feel that In
many ways control Of the Supreme
Court is Of more Importance than con
troll Of the executive branch Of the
government, as this tribunal may pass
upon all the progressive measures
which the next legislature is expected
to enact, and it would be impossible
to carry out the complete program If
a majority Of the supreme justices
could be depended upon to give re-
dictionary interpretations Of the laws.
For this reason it is highly impor-
tant that progressives of all parties
unite in support of Harry A. Bronson.
Mr.. Bronson Is an able lawyer and
made an enviable reputation as assist
ant attorney general. He is modern
minded and thoroughly in sympathy
with the progressive legislative pro-
gram of the Frazier administration.
He has no affiliations with big bust
ness corporations and may be de-
pended upon not to raise technical
and far-fetched legal interpretations to
nullify legislation passed at the man.

Men of Mr.. Bronson's caliber and

With the American Army North
west of Verdun, Thursday. Oct. 8.
by Associated ss.)-When
New York troops captured the viii
lage OF Artist. Louis on Friday a
number of Germans came out of
their hiding places with uplifted
hands and were supposed to have
surrendered. When the Americans
came nearer the Germans suddenly
dropped their hands and, Selling
hand grenades, threw them with
deadly effect, killing and wounding
number of the New York boys.
The survivors retreated and told
the story. Then more New York
troops went forward. They were
armed with fame throwers and gas
projectors and filled the village with
fame and gas until not single Ger.
man escaped.
Find Concrete Emplacements.
Two concrete emplacements for
big guns were discovered west of
Varennes when New York troops
advanced along the western edge OF
tn Argonne forest few days ago.
The guns had been removed, but
engineers believe that they were
Austrian 305s.
The emplacements were 100 yards
apart and apparently were built
more than a year ago.
Big guns were scattered through
the Argonne forest and from day to
day have been taken by the sdvanc-
ing New York soldiers.
Many of the roads leading. from
the Argonne forest to Montfaucon
and to Malancourt were barred by
concrete pillars as a precaution
against the operation of allied tanks.
At safe distances behind these pillars
anti-tank. gun positions have been
found. These, in many places. were
built of concrete. These concrete
positions were, for the most part,
behind the main defensive positions
which the Americans broke.
