LaMoure Man On Stand In
Federal Trial Of League
Store Manager

Bismarck, N. D., July 25.-Banker
Hunt Of LaMoure. who knew Job w.
Brinton as a boy at Fessenden, tes-
titled in federal court Wednesday
afternoon that he heard J. W., Brin-
toms Kuhn address and found moth
Ing seditious or disloyal in it. Mrs.
Gail Kits Of Garrison, who admitted
that Mrs. J. F. Sullivan, wife of the
governments principal witness, had
not been neighborly, thought Brinton
had talked patriotism about 80 min
Utes in his Garrison speech. She
couldn't remember what he said on
this subject, nor could she recall
whether there was an American flag
in the hall or whether any patriotic
hymns were sung at the meeting.
Her memory was very clear, howev-
er, as to the things which Brinton
did not say. Simon Junks, a farmer
and coal miner living near Garrison,
went to the stand and corroborated
other evidence given by witnesses
for the defense as to the guiltless-
ness Of BrintOns remarks at CARR
son.
Aside from an admission on cross
examination from Mrs. A. B. Currier,
publisher Of a Garrison newspaper
which Is friendly to the league, that
Brinton talked patriotism five min
utes and steel trust and Townley
soup two hours and thirty minutes,

the government at the morning ses-
sion in the trial of Brinton.
L. A. Comstadius, farmer resid-
ing IA miles east of Garrison, who
was presented with a homestead by
Uncle Sam, who joined the league
at its inception and has paid his
dues regularly but who did
not have money enough to buy
Liberty Bonds Of the first and Sec
ond issues. was another witness for
the defense. Mr.. Comstadius was
born in Sweden and homesteaded in
Mclean county, where he now owns
considerable land. While he could
not afford to invest in either the
first or second Liberty Loan and did
not invest in the third, because
the quota was filled before they got
around 10 collect his subscription"
the league said he had 500 to pay
for a certificate in tho Townley
chain stores. In June he subscribed
for $500 worth Of Savings Stamps,
but he has not yet actually brought
any stamps. He expects to buy in
September, he informed the court.
Ole Lee. another Garrison farmer,
was also placed on the stand by the
defence. He also was a homestead
err settling in Mclean county Is
year ago. He is Lacquer, and he
had bought Liberty Bonds, support
ed the Red Cross and the Lutheran
war fund. He did not hear anything
disloyal in Brinton's talk and stated
that Brinton did not make the dec
larations upon which the govern
ment's indictment Is based.

More Reserves Thrown In.

Paris, July 25.-More reserves are
being thrown into the battle by the
Germans, according to the latest ad-
vices reaching Paris, but these were
unable to prevent the Allies from
making appreciate gains Wednes-
day. The important point Of Oulchy-
le-Chaeau slowly, but surely is being
surrendered. If the Germans lose it,,
it will be impossible to hang to Fere-
en- ardenois. Military observers
here are convinced that General Lud-
endorff shortly will launch a counter
offensive. His objects, will be, first
to clear the front between scissors
and Rheims; second, to lessen the
demoralizing effect of a projected re-
treat to the Vesle and, third, to have
Germany regain the initiative.

Paris, July 25.-The army commit
tee Of the chamber Of deputies has

bers with the armies in the field on

in a few days, almost in few hours,

the French soldiers and their Ameri-
can, British and Italian comrades
and to the science Of the military
chiefs, who proved unquestionable
mastery in the conception and execu-
ton Of the operations that these re-
suits are due.
This certainly marks a decisive
turn in the war, justifying the pro-
found satisfaction and the great
hopes felt by the army committee.
