Broken Formaldehyde Bot
tie Breaks Up Meeting.

Lewiston. Mimi, Feb. 23.--Th0;
National Non Partisan league
meeting was delayed eight hours,
because of the breaking of a large
bottle OF fol1naldehyde in the hall
a short time before the meeting
was to have been called to order.
Just how the bottle of formal-
dehyde came to be in the hall and
how It happened to be broken has
not been determined. Citizens say
that none of the local people were
responsible for the accident and
declare that Non Partisan visit
ors themselves broke the bottle
containing the fornaldehyde.
League members assert that the
act was committed by persons
bent on preventing the holding OF
the meeting.
A large delegation of towns
people were AZ the railroad sta
ton awaiting the arrival of the
speak ers. when the disinfectant
was liberated
