Socialism and America

J. d. Bacon OF Grand Forks, N. D..
In a most interesting booklet THE
Inside Story OF the National Nom
Partisan League" reviews the activi-
ties Of this organization in North d.
kota in a convincing manner and con.
cludes with the following summary
which applies to any state. In which
the league is carrying on Its activity
at this time. He says:
socialism, a. prncticed and
preached by the Nom Partisan league
leaders, Is nothing more nor less than
tearing down the governments OF the
states and nation rs they exist today
and in their places setting up an su-
tocracy under the guise OF Freedom
God save the mark.
What wrongs have been wrought
in thy name, oh Freedom!
Suppose the organization had won
the complete control OF the state Of
North Dakota, what would have been
the condition Of that state today?
"Can you imagine 1t. Farmers?
"Suppose the motto The Sky 10 the
Limit were actually In force In North
Dakota and 1900, 900. OOO-three hun
bred millions Of dollars-in bonds had
been issued by the state, as Governor
Fra zier said there should be? Whose
debt would that be, Farmers?
You would have to pay 1t Farm

to getting you by the throat, oh.
North Dakota.
who would do the work on the
farms, In the banks, In the stores, In

Mrs. A. B. Campbell.

The death of Mrs. A. B. Campbell
at her home in this city on Monday
made sadness in the hearts of hel
! children, relatives and friends, and
cast a gloom over the entire city.
Mrs. Campbell was one of those
women who bind all that were for
tunate enough to share her friend
ship in ties of admiration and love.
She had resided long time in Alb
erdeen, and because of her excell-
ent qualities of character. exhibited
in unselfish devotion to her fam
lily, her church and the benevo-
lences of the community. had en-
deared herself to all of our people.
She was a consistent member of
the Presbyterian church, and by
reason of her loyal devotion to that
institution, prominent Christian
graces adorned her character.
She is survived by three daught-
era, Mrs. J. s. Hopkins. of Aber-
deem. Mrs. Ralph Pearson, of Bir-
mingham. Ala, and Mrs. Ralph
Lawson, of Shaw. also three sons,
Edward. of Vicksburg, and William
and Henry Campbell, of Canton.
All her children were present when
the mother breathed her last.
The funeral services were conduct
ed from her late home on North
Long ST.. Tuesday afternoon at A
O'Clock. Rev. f. c. Scott, of the
Presbyterian church, officiating. as
sisted by Rev. c. c. Kiser In
terment was made in Odd Fellows
cemetery.
The stricken children. grandchild-
rem and relatives have the sympa-
thy of all in their irreparable loss.
Having heen so successful in di-
recting. by means of field telephones,
the wonderful battle scenes in Joan
the Woman" Cecil B. deMille, the
noted producer. employed the same
method of conducting the battle
scenes for Geraldine Farrar's latest
success for Aircraft, The Woman
God Forgot" which will be seen
at the Temple Theatre on Wednes-
day. March 9th. Phones were i'm
stalled at each station around the
battlefield where Mr.. deMille had
placed camera men and assistants,
and with the receiver strapped to
his head. and the transmitter swing
ing from his breast, he was in con-
slant communication with the whole
organization. The battle scenes
which would ordinarily require a
week or more to film. were taken in
the brief space of three days.

SWAMI TO FIGHT
CHILDS DECISION
Prosecutor in Appeal Will
Seek Criminal Trial in
Fusion Case.

Disagreeing with the opinion Of Justice
Finch of the Supreme Court handed
down in the case of William Hamlin
Childs. who was charged with wilfull'
filing false record of election expenses
OF the 1917 fusion campaign. to the @"
feet that the accounting of funds by Mr..
Childs Is a civil and not a criminal mat
'er. District Attorney Swami yesterda'
declared that he would appeal to the
Arnellate Division early next week.
Mr.. Swami said:
I'VE believe that under a correct inter-
probation of the law the acts charged in
the indictments constitute a crime and
are triable in the criminal courts. We
do not think there is anything In the
election law, properly interpreted, which
prevents a criminal prosecution. We be-
leve that in regard to the processes of
penal and criminal law that the wilful
and intentional failure to file correct dis
bursements Is a crime and is punishable
as such and that the proper method OF
determining whether the crime really ex-
lists 's by trial in the criminal courts
I'VE further believe II to be well
settled rule OF law that the determine
ton of the question whether the act set
forth in the indictment constitutes n
crime Ia TO be left TO the court In which
the Indictment is found: that even II II
we're assumed for purposes OF argument
that the acts did not constitute n crime
that could not affect the Jurisdiction of
the court In which the Indictment Is
pending, and that Ia also true where an
Indictment is pending in the criminal
courts.
1--WE think that the criminal side OF
the Supreme Court had full Jurisdiction
whether the acts are punishable or not as
a crime and that the question OF the suf-
ficiency Of the indictment should not be
determined in a collateral proceeding In.
st,tuted by habeas corpus. but only by a
direct proceeding before the court in
which the indictment Is found.
"For both these reasons. because the
habeas corpus is not proper remedy
and also because we contend that the In
dictments are good in law and state facts
which constitute a crime. we intend to
appeal" he concluded.

F0REG0 FETE TO HELP FUND.
Post 4 McCOrd Turn Money Into
Smokes for Troops,

The established custom Of Post & Nc
Chord OF 1o1 Park avenue to give a
clam bake and picnic annually to their
employees Is this year to be honored
"tn the breach" In their Judgment this
is not the year for festivity that costs
money. and after consulting with their
men the Arm decided to call Off the pic
mic and devote what would be the cost
Of II to The Sun Tobacco Fund.
From the inception OF THE SUN To-
bacco Fund Post & Mcccrd sud che men
employed in tire various branches of
their business have been its generous
supporters. The aggregate OF contribu-
lions from this source runs considerably
over $4,000. This sum will be increased
by the present donation of $500.
Mr.. Hutchinson. who had the matter
OF the clam bake in his direction. said
that when he preached the possibility Of
not having II this year but divertins
the money to the smoke fund the EN-
ployees of the firm heartily Endorsed the
change.
There wasn't dissenting vote" said
he, and to man from the highest to
the lowest paid member OF the force
they said Good " when they heard that
the money would go to THE Sun To-
