to make an agreement with the Nonpartisan
league leaders, and paralyze industry IN NORTH
Dakota as an anti-war measure.
Of course loyalty is not an issue" but
Governor Frazier allows his name to be cou-

loyalty and sentenced for it, and another who was
under arrest but has since been freed.
OF course loyalty is not an ISSUE" but
Governor Frazier welcomes to the state OF
North Dakota the Peoples Peace council, and
insults the people of Fargo who wouldn't let Max
Eastman give vent to his sedition here
OF course loyalty is not an issue" but
Six leaders of the Nonpartisan league have
been convicted on various charges Of disloyalty
in Minnesota; some eight or ten more have been
indicted and dozens of others have been driven
out of towns by irate citizens.
OF course loyalty is not an issue" but
The privately owned Townley. organs, edited
and controlled by Mr.. Townley, who is the sole
dictator of Nonpartisan league policies, edtoraly

Almost Immediately whistles in ev-

were fired and at the end of two hours
the din had increased rather than di-
minished.
In spite of drizzling rain the
streets filled magically with people. At

busiest corner, traffic was halted while

and Hail, Hail, the Gangs All Here"
Many business houses dismissed

to join in the celebration.
Tops of office buildings and win
dows were CANNED with cheering, flag
waving multitudes.
From every window in the loop

ticker tape descended. The air was so
filled thatsft was almost impossible to

Secretary Lansing at o'clock this

statement:
1.-The report that the armistice with
Germany had been signed is not true.

France.
Paris, Nov. THE allies and
Germany signed an armistice
at II o'clock this morning.
Hostflities ceased at 2 o'clock
this afternoon. The Americans
took Sedan before the armistice
became effective.
The greatest war of all time
came to an end at 2 p. m. to-
day. The allies and Germany
signed an armistice three hours
earlier on the field of battle.
The German delegation had
come into the allied lines under
a white flag.
Sedan, one of the historic
cities in Europe, was captured
by the Americans this morning
after an additional advance of
more than four miles.
At the time the document was
signed, the allied armies were
slashing forward on a $50 mile
front from the Scheldt to the
Meuse, tearing the German de-
fenses to pieces and driving the
enemy in utter rout. The Ameri-
cans took Sedan this morning
and great gains were made at all
points on the battle front.
Before the terms were sub
mitted to Germany, the kaiser
was forced to apply to Marshal
Foch AMI Admiral Wemyss as
military and naval representa-
tives Of the allies under a flag of
truce.
While virtual peace was thus
being concluded Germany was in
the throes of an incipient revolu-
tion at home. A revolt of sailors
at Kiel had spread thru Schles-
wig-Holstein and several large
cities were reported to be in the
hands OF the revolutionists.
