BY EDWARD BATTLES

r ATE has increased its price on human life. Although a war. thrust
= upon the world by dreamcrS of world dominion, has caused the
death of 10000 600 people, the cost of civilian life has steadily
raised higher and higher during the last ten years.
A Safety First movement, inaugutated by various railroads
throughout the country, is responsible, in a large measure, for the
higher valuation of animated existence. CarefulneSS is the watchwOrd
OF railroad men today. Once a month safety committees of the Santa
Re system convene in Albuquerque TO discuss better methods of rcduc.
ing accidents, lessening the number OF men killed on this division, and
sludying problems for The prolccnoh OF The travelng public.

TRY TO STEAL
SECOND PARTY
Conferences Between Bloom and
Lemke Promise Excitement
for Tomorrow
NONPARTIAN DEMOS HERE
Senator Cahill of Leith and
Peterson of Bisbee Among
Early Birds

A plot for the capture of the demo-
cratic state central committee by the
league is scented in the early appear
ance of such league Wheel-horses
among the democrats as John Bloom
Of Devils Lake, who was in close con-
ference with William Lemke, league
chairman of the republican state cen
tral committee, all morning; Sen. j. l..
bee, floor leader for the league in
the house of the 18th assembly, and
now league candidate for the senate;
Owen Solberg Of Rolette and 9TH
ers.
Chairman w. e. Byerly of the demo-
cratic state central committee and
/ Fred Bartholomew of Grand Forks,
democratic candidate for congress in
the First district arrived at noon to-
day. They had previously made their
reservations at the Grand Pacific, from
time immemorial rallying place for
the progressive hosts, which is not the
hotel which is being patronized on
this trip by John Bloom. William
Lemke for some time past has made
a different hostelry his headquarters
while in Bismarck. 1t is notorious that
Chairman Lemke still registers from
Fargo. With Mr. Bloom, who has been
given the chairmanship of the state
game and fish board, much public
printing and other little evidences of
appreciation for his loyalty to the
league, is NJ. F. Fitzgerald of Devils
Lake. Stopping at the same hotel is
II. P. Halvorson of Sheyenne.
Senator Cahill and Representative
Peterson declined to be interviewed
this morning. Chairman Lemke OF
the republicans and John Bloom,
league manager for the democrats,
were conspicuously absent from pub
,ic view, and Chairman Byerly of the
democratic, state central committee
had not yet put in an appearance.
Messrs. Cahill and Peterson professed
| ignorance as to the probable choice OF
their party for Craftsmanship. Mr.
Bloom knows the name of the man he
would like to have made state chair
man. His initials are identical with
those of John H. Bloom of Devils
Lake. but Mr.. Bloom is not yet pre-
pared to promise that he can put Mr..
Bloom over.

RICH MEN BACKING PLAN
Fatherland Party Calls in Vain

RICH MEN BACKING PLAN

! Berne. Switzerland. Sept. 3.-The
vague reports as to the powers re-
sponsiblity for the recent German Of
fensives, for the continuance of the
submarine warfare. for the Brest-
LitOvsk peace and for all the crimes
that can be laid at Germany's door,
have brought to light the work OF
one of the most autocratic and des-
potic organizations in the world.
The kaiser fears and obeys it, as
the Hohenzollern dynasty depends on
| it for it's continuance The Reichs-
tag fights vainly against its DEGREES.
while the people themselves are lulled
into dreams of conquest and peace by
it's promises.
This secret and powerful body is
known as the "Independent Commits
sion for German Peace" and true
to it's name it seeks to force Ger
man-made peace down the throats
of the allied nations, regardless OF
the cost to the people of the central
empires.
It's members include practically all
manufacturers and high military Of
ficers. The control of the German
[ it's hands, and its voice carries the
final say in all military matters.
Hindenburg, Ludendorff, Conut
r ;,,x
re are but the mouthpieces of these
super -junkers, and the work of these
men is but an example of the work
of the others in Germany proper.
1t was the secret power OF this or
! ganization that. has forced from pub
j., lie office all those with any taint of
| Offering the allies a fair deal. Beth
mannn-Hollweg, Michaelis :. and re-
Gently kuehlmann' were forced out
through the activities Of these men.
The organization of the Fatherland
Party under the leadership Of Admi-
raj Won Tirpitz, OF submarine fame,
has been one Of it's steps in deluding
the people as to it's real aims.
| Radicals Fight Caba!.
!, The Fatherland party has been cal
|
to its banners. to help defend their
country against the invaders, to an
mex all territories conquered and to
! force Germany's enemies to pay for
the war However, of late this party
has been falling into disrepute. it's
true character having been brought
to light.
With the recent defeats inflicted
upon the German armies by the al
lies, small but powerful group of
radicals, aided by the shipbuilding
and industrial magnates and the
Rhine cities, has set forth to wrest
the control of German politics out OF
the hands of these junkers.
This group wants peace at any
price to stave off an economic war
after the war which will mean ruin
to them and to Germany.
They were given setback by the
enforced resignation of kuehlmann
and the succession Of Admiral Won
Hintze as foreign minister, but they
have declared. themselves opposed to
the peace terms of the "Independent
| Commission and the world will
await with interest the struggle be-
tween these two forces, on which the
future of Germany depends.
