consideration. Mr.. Talmage, in this
connection, says:
II had charge Of league legislation
at Pierre in 1917. I met Democrats
and Republicans. Our league meas
ure favored by the governor was
passed promptly and almost unani-
mously; almost all of the legislators
either were farmers or owners of
farms. When I reported to
Townley that the South Dakota far
mers had obtained at little expense
and withcsIt flare Of trumpets in six
days time more progressive legisla-
ton for the league than North Da-
kota had obtained in two years, his
comment was: Tt would have been
a - sight better if they had done
nothin.' TO me, this indicated that
Townley was far more interested in
electing men to office whom he could
control for some Interior motive than
he was to obtain legislation proposed
by the league for the benefit of the
farmer"
Farms to Be SociaTized.
"The league autocrat is a cunning
socialist at heart" asserts Mr.. Tai
madge. HE desires the 'sociaIiza-
ton of the instruments Of produce
ton and distribution Every farm is
an instrument of production Or
ganized labor with which Townlev is
now flirting when given place in
his scheme, will insist that farms
be the first instrument socialized.

1t is likely to have to deal with them later in re-

Canvas of City for Al

At noon today the. subscriptions
made to the fund for Jewish reilet

approximately $12,500. just half OF
the quota that the state committee
hopes to receive from the largest
city of the state. Reports have been
received from 35 towns of North
Dakota that $15,s12.25 had been sub
scribed, most satisfactory return
and the committee has turned its
greatest efforts to securing the quo
Ia expected from Fargo.
1--WE are just starting, said w.
H. Barnett, chairman of the solicita-
ton committee. I'VE haven't
enough solicitors. We want men to
volunteer to work for us on this
campaign to save Fargo's honor.
We must not let it go down that
Fargo dodn't respond to this APP
peal when all parts of the state have
done so. If people who haven't
been called upon will send their
checks or pledges to pay. to me at

men to do the canvassing as we
wish, and we shall have to keep on
today, tomorrow and Saturday If
necessary. in order to keep Fargo in
her first place as city, in the state"

1.-THE Secretary Of State makes public the follow
ing:
'.From the Secretary of State to the charge
DAnaires Adeinterim in charge Of German inter-
ests in the United States:
Department of State, Oct %. 1918.
=" Sir: / have the honor TO acknowledge the
receipt of your note Of the 22nd transmitting under
date OF the Goth. from the German government,
and to advise you that the President has instruct
ed me to reply thereto as follows:
Having received the solemn and explicit as
surance of the German government that it unre-
servedly accepts the terms of peace laid down in
his address TO the congress Of the United States
on the 9Th of January, 1915 and the principles OF
settlement enunciated in his subsequent addresses
particularly the address Of the 9th Of September
and that it desires to discuss the details OF their
application and that this wish and purpose eTna-
mated not from those who have hitherto dictated
German policy and conducted the present war on
Germanys behalf, but from ministers who speak
for the jority OF the reichstag and for over
whelming majority of the German people; and
having received also the explicit promise Of the
present German government that the humane rules
of civilized warfare will be observed both land
and sea by the German armed forces the Pre"t-
dent Of the United States feels that he cannot de-
cline to take up with the governments with which
this government of the United States is associated
the question of an armistice.
The Only Terms
,sFEe deems it his duty to say again, however,
that the only armistice he would feel justified in
submitting for consideration would be one which
should leave the United States and the powers as
ISOLATED with her in a position to enforce any ar
rangements that may be entefed into and to make
a renewal of hostiities the part Of Germany
impossible The President has, therefore, trars
mitted his correspondence with the present German
authorities to the governments with which the
government of the United States is associated as a
beigerent with the suggestion that, if those gov
ernments are disposed to effect peace upon the
terms and principles indicated. their military adj
visers and the military advisers Of the United
States be asked to submit to the governments as
ISOLATED against Germany the necessary terms of
such an armistice will fully protect the inter-
ests of the peoples involved and ensure to the
ISOLATED governments the unrestricted power to
safeguard and enforce the details Of the peace to
which the German government has agreed, rrc-
vided they deem such armistice possible from

is the same as leaving it all to
Townley; for the national executive
