CAPT. EDWARDS
WORKED UP
/. THRU RANKS

Captain Frank Edwards of the Royal
'Fusiliers will fill number of speak
ing engagements in this state from
August q to 81 inclusive, including
bismarck.
Captain Edwards came to this coun:
try at the request Of our government
and upon the selection OF the British
war office His mission is to bring
home to our people something of the
actual condition of things at the
front, so that we may understand
what they are. and what we. in this
country, must do to win the war;
Saptain Edwards spent two and a
half years in the South African war,
in which he was captains commits
siOn st' ", ~~> ..
When England entered the present
men and went with them, as a pri-
vate, into the battle fields Of France.
He went through the ranks as prf-
vate, lance corporal. corporal, lance
sergeant, sergeant, platoon sergeant,
second lieutenant, first lieutenant and
captain, with the rank of company
commander of the battalion in which
he enlisted as a private. No one is
better qualified on the war situation
than Captain Edwards.
Under the auspices Of the British
Military commission he has been
speaking in the larger cities of Iowa,
Wisconsin and Minnesota. At present
he is filling engagements in Montana,
at Billings, Helena, Missouri, Butte
and Great Falls.
J. Adam Bede, who spoke at the
same meeting with him at Billings,
says that he IS positively the most
effective speaker on the present war
that he has heard. Large audiences
attend all of his meetings and the
North Dakota cities which will have a
chance to hear him are fortunate, and
without doubt he will be greeted with
large audiences.
Dates and places for his North Da'

So the WOman's Council endowed
the little shop which enables it to
turn over every cent earned to the
menders-and Mrs. McCarty gave her
time as business manager, a friend
gave the room. while other friends
furnished machines and equipment
and an expert needlewoman was nnt
in charge. And now the Mending
shop is busy every dav with the

Kaiser's Palavar Aims to Placate

(ey Newspaper Enterprise Ass'n.)

10y Newspaper Enterprise Ass'n.)
Amcsterdam;, Holland, Aug 21.-The
real reason for the council Of war be-
ing held at German great headquar-
ters is believed by diplomats here to
lie not in the necessity for picking
kings for lands grabbed by the HUNS
but in the danger threatening the
kaiser's plans from Austria. .,t ..
The people of the dual monarchy
are growing restive under the repeat
ed HUN defeats on the western front
and are renewing their clamor for
peace. The success of the German
military party in ousting Won kuehl-
mann as foreign minister and putting
the Pan-German, Admiral Won Hintze,
in his place was the signal for fresh
Outburst of dissatisfaction, in Vienna.
Austria has been anxious for
peace at any price since 1916. The
escendency Of the German military
party and it's cancellation of the plans
for peace drive" have convinced
the Austrian people that the last shred
of trust in the possibility of an early
peace has vanished. So the cry for
peace has again frightened Emperor
Karl, who has gone to talk it over
with the kaiser. g."
The sentiment in Austria can be
guaged by an article in the Vienna Ar
better Zeitung, which points out that
there is no immediate hope for peace,
and demands that it be Immediately,
