WARRANT OUT FOR ARREST OF
TOWNLEY.

Lakefield, Mimi, Feb. 12.-War-
rants have been. issued here charging
A. G. Townley, president of the Ma
tional Nonpartisan league, with con-
spring to discourage enlistments in
the military and naval forces of the
United States, and accusing Joseph
Gilbert, secretary and organization
manager, of the same charge and also
with violating Section 3, chapter 1853,
Minnesota statutes of 1917, the law
concerning disloyalty.
Gilbert is being tried here on a
charge of unlawful assemblage. He
was arrested two weeks ago when he
attempted to hold a league organiza-
ton meeting after it had been forbid
den by the county officials.
The new charge against Townley
and Gilbert are brought on the ground
that Gilbert is an agent of Townley
and that while Gilbert committed the
actual act, which is declared to be dis
loyal, Townley is his employer and
therefore directs his movements and
actions and is guilty of conspiring
with Gilbert to oppose the nations
military policy.
Warrants were served Immediately
on Gilbert and officials said deputy
sheriff would be sent to St. Paul to ar
rest Townley.
The Minnesota conspiracy act pro-
vides that If two or more persons con-
spire together to commit a crime, and
only one of them actually commits
the crime, the other is equally guilty
as an accessory.

in the whole civilized world. Lately
his loyalty was attacked by some OF
his enemies. The Doctor demanded an
investigation. Commissioner McColl
stood by the accused Doctor and lauded
his loyalty and valuable service to the
city. .#
During the investigation it was shown
that DR.. Ohage was born in Hanover,
then ruled by an English king, that he
had fought in the civil war of the United
States as very young volunteer, that
during the present war he has bought
liberty bonds and in many other ways
shown his loyalty to the United States.
Still, he preferred to hand in his re-
signation. 1t has been said that the
whole charge Of disloyalty was trumped
up by Mayor Irwin and some of his
henchmen to cast discredit on the good
work DR.. Ohage had done for the city
and the action is a disgrace to the city.

Every now and again a ray of IL
Illuminating light is thrown upon the
contention of American protectionists
that taxes on imports are paid by for
eigners. The matter was strikingly
illustrated when Mr.. Dooley answered
Hennesy's question, "Does the for
eigner pay the taxi" "Sure," said the
sage, ''whin he lands at Ellis Island"
Additional confederation now comes
from Canada. The Grain Growers Guide
Of Winnipeg, in championing the efforts
of the farmers of Western Canada to
have farm implements put on the free
list says: 'The farmer today is paying
twice as much in tariff taxes on all his
implements as he did three or four
years ago. All this curtails the pur-
chase of farm implements and machinery
and cuts down the production of food.
The tariff tax on farm machinery tends
to strengthen the hands of the enemy"

practicing cooperative buying and selling,
and taking an intelligent interest in
economic questions. 1t is particularly
interested in taxation and the tariff
question. Recognizing the Importance
Of the food question in connection with
the war, the Grain Growers organiza-
ton calls upon the Canadian Govern
ment to relieve it's members from the
burden of enhanced prices due to the
tariff on farm implements. It will be
re-assuring to American protectionists
to have this evidence that the foreigner
pays the tax - on American made farm
implements. Possibly American farm
ers may be interested to the extent of
inquiring why if protective tariff on
American implements in Canada is paid
by Canadians, a protective tariff on for
eign made goods in the United States
is not paid by Americans.-1he Public.

PRIVATE GRIEVANCES CAUSE
TROUBLE

Personal disagreements among the
members of the working force at Crone
Bros. store resulted in something of a
shaking-up and a scattering of the units
which comprised the whole, the latter
part Of the week. Mrs. Augusta Triton
who had been a valued employee Of the
firm for years handed in her resigna-
ton to become effective at once because
of conditions existing which were not
agreeable. An investigation resulted in
the dismissal of three other clerks and
another resigned. The report was cur
rent that sort Of strike was in progress
but it does not seem to have reached
quite so serious stage as that and Mr..
Carl Crone characterized the affair as
little bit of house cleaning The
question of wages did not enter into
the trouble at all, and it was purely a
matter of personal disagreements.
These are ''touchy'' times and the
unrest and dissatisfaction caused by

Redwood County has three candi-
dates for the Office of representative in
the persons OF Mr.. Bendixen, Mr.. Stewart
and Mr.. Danielsen. Some time ago
Mr.. Stewart suggested to Mr.. Bendixen
that conference be held for the pur-
pose of Paving two Of the three candi-
dates eliminated. At first Mr.. Bendixen
seemed fairly agreeable to the PROPOSE
ton but after having given the matter
full consideration he has reached the
conclusion that, such a course would be
:unwise and inconsistent. The object of
this conference was to secure the filing
of but one patriotic candidate. Mr..
Bendixen says that he knows Of no un-
patriotic candidate having filed and if
such an inconceivable thing should have
occurred he believes that tie people Of
the county can be trusted to make a
proper selection. q N ISL

difficult living conditions is extending to
every group, private and public. Tempers
are short, irritation is quickly aroused
and the employer of labor these days
finds himself sitting on volcano which
is likely to erupt at any moment, for
any slight cause, or no cause at all.
The world is surely a most unpleasant
place and one can scarcely blame either
workers or employers for the disagree
ments which arise. Patience and more
patience, tolerance and more tolerance
are needed by everyone today and as
long as the war lasts will this condition
continue to become more aggravated.

HELPED RICHEST JAP WOMAN
Spectator, Having Amassed Millions,
Is Walking Curio in the Streets
Of Kobe.

Madame Suzuki is reported to be
the richest woman in Japan. She is at
the head Of Suzuki & Co., which is re-
ported to have coined few hundred
million yen since the beginning Of the
world war.
Madam Suzuki is the daughter Of
modest stOckbrol1er In the city Of
Osaka, says Adachi KinnOsuke, in Les
lies. She married Mr.. Suzuki when
he was a petty merchant. When he
died, however, he left what was con-
sidered quite a fortune in Japan in
those days. The present prime min
lister of hers, Kaneko, was then in
charge Of the business. Kaneko spec
ulated and lost; the net loss amount
ed to a good many thousand yen more
than the entire fortune which his late
master had left to his widow and chill
dren. Kaneko actually had his foot
on crossbar Of bridge railing over
the Yodo river in Osaka, ready to
jump into the cold beyond, as the only
fit apology for his terrific blunder.
Il can die" said he to himself solemn
~ enough, land that is easy enough.
But my dying now would not help the

"Very WELL" she said. And that is
all she said. She did not ask him
how, why, where-nothing. She took
her children and went back to her
home.

but many hundred millions for her

CAMPING PLACE OF NATION
That Seems to Be the Manifest Des-
tiny Of the Sequoia National
Park.

Analysis shows that the very large
increase in visitors to the Sequoia
National park last summer amount
ing to nearly 60 per cent over the rec
ord attendance of the summer before,
fact which strongly emphasizes
what has been called the manifest
destiny of the Greater Sequoia as
the future summer camping place Of
the nation.
The report Of the director of the
national park service says:
ut was a most pleasing sight to
stand in the midst of the Giant For
est during the summer and gaze upon
the attractively situated and taste
fully decorated camps nestled each
at the base of an enormous sequOia.
It was a peaceful scene and a beauti-
full one. There was nothing to do in
the forest but rest, breathe the health
restoring air, drink the clear, cold
water, and contemplate the dignity
and beauty Of the biggest and oldest
living things. Fishermen came and
went, and the mixers and horseback
riders took the trails and returned
from the higher attitudes of the park,
but the peacefulness and quietude of
the forest was never disturbed.
Camping in the Giant Forest is all
that anybody has written about it and
more 1t is a glorious experience.

NOT SPAIN OF OLD GLORitS
country's Life Just One Plot After
Another, Famed by German Hot
Air, Declares Writer.

The Spain of today is not the Spain
of your tradition or your Imagination.
1t is remote from being the colorful
the handspring of great adventure and
the inspiration of poet and painter.
The glories of Velasquez and Ger
vantes have not been revived in our
day, writes Isaac F. Marcosson in the
Saturday Evening Post.
She presents the spectacle Of sad
contrast with a departed splendOr.
Once a treasure house Of art and
wealth, the haven of mighty armadas,
the nerve center of a far-reac ching pow
er on land and sea, she finds herself
rent with disorder and a tool for Ger
manic conspiracy.
She has no twentieth century COrtes
to recreate her one-time world vision !;
she lacks a contemporary CASTELAR, to
win the multitude with the magic Of
his eloquence or to guide her ship of
state with steady hand through the
perilOus waters Of uncertainty. There
is not even an up-to-date Don Quixote
to tilt at the windmills of discomfort
famed by Teutonic hot air!
Life with her is still one plot after
another. To degree greater than e1-
listed in the Russia that was, she is
like a national bomb factory. Spain
always has a pretender in her midst.
Worst Of all, the ruling classes-that
is. the classes that rule today-are

mic independence. is subtly reaching

OLD-FASHIONED FOURTH AT
NEWPORT CENTER.

Under the auspices TO the Newport
Town Red Cross branch. The clear
skies and scorching sun made one
think of the Fourths of long ago and
the celebration at the Center was in
keeping with the day. Large crowds
of people assembled in good season
from all the nearby towns. The first
number on the program was the par
ade at 10 a. m. which was splendid
in every detail. The floats were
beautiful and the horribles were real
ly horrible. After the parade came
sports of all kinds, bicycle races, rum
ming and sack races, etc.
A splendid baked-bean dinner was
served to a great company OF people
on Kinney's lawn. After dinner
came more sports and tug-of-war.
Then a baseball game between the
Newport town boys and Coventry,
which Melted victory for the latter.
At the refreshment booth the people
seemed to be able to refresh them
selves. Billiards. Red Cross Fife and
Drum corps of Orleans furnished the
music for the day and gave universal
satisfaction.
Ed. Larabee as marshal of the day
proved himself in every way fitted
for the task and ably performed it.
The official government war pictures
in the evening drew a full house. The
expenses were quite a little but $S5
was cleared for the local Red Cross
besides giving the townspeople and
their friends very enjoyable day. 10
everybody who assisted in the parade,
the sports or the dinner or booth, the
hearty thanks of the executive COM
mittee is extended.

1.-THE enormous increase in travel
to the park early in the summer dis
closed the fact that it would only be
matter of a year or two before all
available camping space would be
taken long before the height of the
season; also that the streams Of the
park, unless carefully stocked each
year, would be fished out before the
summer would be half gone. Antic-
pating the inevitable need of more
camping grounds, the Giant Forest
boad has been continued from VOL
vertOn to the Marble Fork river,
where splendid opportunity for the
development Of fine big camp area
exists. There are no seQuOia trees
here, but there is a fine forest Of
pines and frs, and the ground is COW
cred with a clean white gravel that
will make camping especially salts
factory. This new camp area will be
near the best fishing waters that are
at all times accessible, and an effort
will be made to keep these waters
well stocked with trout

in volume for q number of years.
The Crimean war interrupted Eng
lish trade with Russia. but when the
conflict was over the British traders
returned to Odessa. It was at this Pc
Rod that they were forced to divide the
trade with Germany, for German
shippers had seized the opportunity to
gain a foothold In the port.
The war offers just now an odd par
allel Of that war Of trade waged go
years ago. It may be of significance
to recall that the ultimate result Of
the Anglo-German contest for Russia's
Odessa trade was that the Jews gain
ed absolute control Of the exporting
business Of the city.
Bloody Revolution In 1905.
In 1905 Odessa was the scene Of q
violent revolution. The Russian navy
mutinied and trained the big guns Of
the warship in the harbOr on the city.
The disorders were Quelled by the
cars military forces, but not before
there was bloOdshed and suffering
which centered the worlds attention
on the city.
Odessa before the war was proud
of it's beautiful parks and boulevards.
The refuge of many French mobiles in
the time Of the French revolution, the
streets are evidence of the fact, for
they bear names reminiscent Of roy
atty Of France. The main thorough
fare, however, is the Street Of the
TRANSPORTATION, which begins at the
magnificent cathedral and ends at the
gate Of the consecrated ground of the
Orthodox Greek cemetery.
The population is largely Tartar, on
which has been grated Slav, Teuton,
Morse, Finnish and Lettish stock, but
at the beginning of the war it was
said to be still Tartar In the main. Cat
acombs extending under the rich city
and its beautiful suburbs through va
rious periods of Odessa's career have
housed the miserably poor, and at
times the underground inhabitants
have numbered as many as $4,000.

HAVE MANY QUAINT BELIEFS
Alaskan Natives Probably as Superstl.
tious as Any Race on the
Face Of the Earth.

In Alaska the natives have all kinds
Of superstitiOus beliefs. They believe
that everything has a spirit, and that
these spirits must be respected or else
bad luck will come to them. For in
stance, they must not throw away any
old clothing, nor burn it, for that would
be the same as destroying a part Of
themselves. They must make bundle
of the old clothes and put it on the
branches Of large spruce tree out
side the village. All fish bones are
carefully put away in a basket to be
taken out to the middle Of a river,
stream or lake and there thrown over
board. This is done so that every
single bone, after it is put back into
the water, will turn into fish, and
this is sure to keep up the supply.
When child is born the father
has to put away all tools that are
made Of iron or steel and is not al
lowed to use them for 20 days. Dur
ing that time he Is not allowed to go
outside to do any work or any hunt
ing. Should he do any Of these things
it would surely cause the death Of the
baby. When a child dies 1t is not
buried, but is wrapped In bundle and
placed at the foot Of spruce sapling.
If the tree dies within year the
spirit Of the child dies also.
When q grown person dies the body
is kept at least three days in the room
in which It has died. When the time
for burial comes the body Is buried on
hillside or a high bank facing the
river. There Is the village Of departed
spirits on the side facing the river and
on the other side the spirits Of the
dogs who have died and who belong to
the people whose spirits are there.
The spirit Of an old woman takes care
of these dogs.-Southern Workman.

Earth Tremors Duo to Thunder-

A peculiar effect Of thunder was re-
Gently reported to the weather bureau
by Douglas F. Manning Of Alexandria
Bay. N. Y. During the storm, which
prevailed In the evening, each rumble
OF thunder caused windows and doors
to rattle, chinaware to jar. and ire
mors In the earth Stimulating the
shocks OF an earthquake. Many per-
sons thought that an earthquake was
In progress. The weather bureau
states that since musical" notes Of
very low pitch and great volume are
sometimes produced by a series of Sc
quent or pulsating lightning dis
charges, the shaking described was
probably due largely to the resonant
response Of rooms to thunder notes of
this character.
