Napoleon, N. D., June 3.-Twelve
Socialists have quit taking his paper,
but this loss is offset by the addition
Of three American subscribers to his
list. o. F. Bryant. editor Of The Ma
poleon Homestead, says in the cur
rent issue, with respect to the boy
colt being maintained against him
under the direction of the Nonparti-
san league leaders.
The boycott against Bryant is the
result OF his stand against the league
leadership, Editor Bryant taking the
position that the league was main
tanned by Socialists to obtain money
from the farmers with which to OPP
crate their campaign. In proof of
that contention he submits that all
of the candidates for the legislature
in the Logan district are Socialists,
though listed on the Republican bal
lot. U.s.

Socialists Quit Napoleon
Paper In Response to the :.
Boycott Order, Bryant Says

"Since The Homestead's expose Of
the fraud being operated by the So
cialists by inveigling honest farmers
OF other political parties into So
ctalism by obtaining their money and
votes to further their game. as they
did two years ago, the league hench-
men have been urging all our farm
ers to discontinue their subscriptions
to The Homestead. it being an ''un-
favorable" newspaper.
"As further proof Of the fact that
we have hit the nail squarely on the
head, we are able to mention at this
writing that we have lost IL sub
scribers, and every one Of them is a
rank Socialist. Again we repeat that
it is usually the hit pig that squeals.'
In the meantime We have gained
three real Americans. so we are more
than fully satisfied and will be glad
to have our list fully purged OF all
'yellows.'

though they admitted that the actual
figures did not tally closely with the
more optimistic claims and expecta-
tions OF the war secretary they with
held the details.
However, Secretary Baker has an
nounced that there are more than
500, 600 Americans abroad at the
present time. They hold sectors on
the Picardy and Flanders fronts.
From the rate at which the troops
are departing It is expected that the
Americans abroad win reach the tot

In this connection 1t Is said that

The crew of the Edward H. Cole
has been landed here.
According to the survivors, the
Edward H. Cole was sunk rs miles
off the highlands Of New Jersey yes
terday afternoon.
Two submarines attacked the Ed
ward H. Cole, according to the COM
mander Of the vessel, Captain New
comb.
They appeared simultaneously one
on each side of the vessel and sig
nailed the captain to heave to. The
commander of one Of the subnna-
rines, then boarded the schooner in
a small boat and gave the crew ten
minutes to leave the ship.
The crew took to their own boats
Immediately and the German sailors
then planted bombs on the vessel
and blew her up.
Just before the explosion occurred,
an American steamship appeared in
the offing and the U-boat immed-
lately gave chase.
The last Captain Newcomb saw OF
, the steamer it was making off at
full speed.
The crew of the Edward H. Cole,
was successfully picked up by an
American auxiliary naval vessel
brought to an Atlantic port last night
and thence sent here by train. They
were taken in charge by naval Off
GERS.
The auxiliary vessel carrying the
Edward H. Coles crew was pursued
by the submarine but escaped by
taking refuge in the Atlantic port.
Beside the Edward H. Cole, the
names OF two other sunken ships
have been reported to navy. They are
the schooner Jacob S. Haskell and
the Isabella D Wiley.

Allied Cause Stronger.

London, May 3.-The movement in
Russia in favor Of the cause of the
allies is increasing and has been
strengthened by President Wilson's
declaration to stand by Russia, says
Petrograd dispatch to The Daily
Express.
The Russian democracy also is en-
couraged over recent steps taken by
the British government to show its
friendship.

article, defends the policy of the al
lies, and expresses gratitude for
President Wilson's friendly utter
ances.
Moscow. Wednesday. May 29.-The
Chinese government has informed
Foreign Minister Tchitcherin that it
regretssit is unable to admit Russian
soviet councils into China because
the. soviet government has not been
recognized by China.
This has caused some surprise to
the Bolshevik government, because
last January China proposed that
Russia sent an unofficial diplomatic
representative to Pekin and be-
cause relations between the two
countries had been very friendly.
Toxic, Monday, May 27.-It is un-
derstood that the United States gov
eminent is studying the feasibility Of
extending economic assistance to
Russia. The proposal to assist the
Russians in an economic way was
made as a possible solution Of the
problems now confronting that coun-
try. Assistance from the United
States would take the form of pur-
chasing and assembling food supplies
In Siberia and distributing them in
European Russia.

Second Thoughts About
Portugal

IN A recent number of "The Con-
! temporary Review" Aubrey F. E.
Bell wrote:
Nothing has been more unpleasant in
the relations between Great Britain and
Portugal during the war than the apparent
fear that the Portuguese people, if left to
itself, would betray it's own liberties and
Independence and dishonor its international
Obligations. 1t was fear cunningly circu-
lated and exploited by the Democrats, who
had horror of real democracy. Now that
the Republican regime in, Portugal is on
the way to attain a greater measure of ma
tional unity it will be shown how utterly
sroundless was that fear. The courageous
action Of Major Sidonio Paes and his sup
porters is likely to help to transfer the
British alliance from the narrow political
sphere to the sphere Of real popular sym
pathy. The British and Portuguese peoples
are in the same boat; they are both suf-
fering at home from the effects of the
war; they are fighting side by side in
France. 1t is high time that they should
recognize each others good qualities and
see their common interests more fully The

Where Tons of Luscious
Oranges Are Cast
Before Swine

sGTN THESE days of high-priced or
4 anges," says Gas Logic" "it is a
saddening thought to devotees Of this
golden, most priced Of all the citrus
fruits that there are places in the tropics
where vast quantities of the ripest, most
luscious oranges are literally cast before
swine.
"This great waste Of one Of earths finest
foods occurs in the beautiful West Indian
island Of jamaica and is incidental to the
primitive methods used by the natives in
producing orange OIL now much used in
this country in the making of cakes, can
dies and other things in the luxury class.
Before Messina was laid in ruins by the
great earthquake ten years ago Sicily was
the chief source Of the worlds supply Of
orange oil. Sicily's misfortune, however.
was Jamaicas gain, for the West Indians
took up the industry at that time and have
been following it with increasing profit
ever since
"The industry is delightfully."- pictur-
esque. Native girls and boys, clad in their
striking vari-colored costumes swarm over
the hillside groves engaged in the work
Of collecting the oil The boys, many of
them with the beauty Of the ancient
Greeks, shake down the fruit, while the
girls, seated on the ground, extract the oil
by means of 'rinders.' These are shallow
copper basins studded thickly on the in
side with sharp points tacks. AS the
oranges are lightly rolled over these tacks
with the palm of the hand the skin yields
up its valuable OIL
"The workers may eat as many oranges
as they please, but after the 'rindng' is
completed the great bulk of the luscious,
ripe fruit is thrown away to the pigs and
other livestock.
"Unadulterated orange oil has strong
aroma, and is used in the making Of per-
fumes, essences, soaps and beverage fla
vors, as we'll as of cakes and confectionery.
The principal use for Jamaica orange oil is
in the manufacture of fancy biscuits, par
tcularly Of a wafer biscuit which is used
extensively with ices and iced drinks"

lack Of authentic information as to just
what sort Of men these adventures
really are Former Mayor Bridges
Smith, writing for "The Macon Tele-
graph" specu1ates as follows:
"The Ku Klux was made up of the best
and most determined men Of the commu-
nifty, not organized for fun or political rea-
sons, but for the common good. They
meant business from the word go, and
never told man to halt but the one time
When they sent warning to some fellow
who was undesirable as citizen he soon
realized that the warning was no idle
threat"
"The Ell Paso Times" notes a feeling
Of uneasiness lest the movement spread
beyond bounds:
Washington is uneasy lest the movement
sweep out Of bounds and beyond restraint
Of the wiser heads now known to be domi-
mating members of the intimidation clans.
"Its threat against the fundamentals Of
civil law in the United States has been
gravely discussed in Congressional debate
on the espionage law.
"But the clan spirit is spreading fast and
becoming more bold, with scarcely any CO.
ordinated effort or seeming temper to
CucCk IL.
"In the West, where the Vigilante spirit
Is deeply ingrained, it has become epidemic
Thus far no acts of violence have occurred
but night parades of the riders and public
announcements have resulted in a notable
decrease Of covert pro-Germansm."
In Birmingham, Ala, $50 white-robed
men in Ku Klux Klan uniforms, carry
ing an American flag and a fiery cross
at the head Of the procession, rode
through the streets recently distribut-
ing cards warning idlers to find work to
do. The cards said in part:
IF you would be Justly entitled to the
liberation and the protection you are en-
joying, find work to do and do It. No able
bodied man, rich or poor, has a right to
consume without producing. Take heed and
go to work. The eye of scrutiny is upon
you. Be respectful to the flag of your
country and loyal to the government Aid
by every means at your command the sup
preston of disloyalty by either speech or
action. The Ku klux Khan is pledged to
the enforcement of the above tenets."

The dam being subject to overflow, a
concentric pool or water cushion thirty
five feet wide is provided just below it
by means of an arched dam three feet
thick and fifteen feet high, with radius
of thirty-fve feet
In adding fifteen feet to the height of
the dam the first step taken was to set
steel anchors in holes drilled in the top
of the original dam. Forms were then
built up on the old structure and con-
crete was poured. To reach rock abut-

ends of the addition as tangents. These

forcement. 1t is sixty-two inches thick
at the base, thirty-six inches at a height
of thirty feet, and continues that thick
ness for its upper forty feet. AS de-
signed in January, 1907, it was to have
height of sixty-fve feet and to be
overtopped to depth of five feet. 1t
was built that year to height of fifty
five feet. In December, 1911, an addi-
ton of fifteen feet to the height of
structure was designed. This was built
in 1914.
The dam has radius of seventy feet,
an arc of 1907 and a crest length of
1913 feet. 1t is founded on bedrock,
which was found exposed at the bed of
