H0boLOves Forks
Jail but Finally
Agrees to Move

Grand Forks, N. D., July 22.-The
usually stern countenances Of the
county sheriff's force are broken by
smiles today for theft belief in the
proposition that Cleanliness is next
to godliness," has been strengthened
in the last twenty-four hours and be-
sides that one Of them has done a
neat article Of persuasion.
Shadows under the eyes Of County
Judge L. K. Hassell are the result
Of deep thought and concentration on
a proposition the like Of which has
never come under his observation be-
fore.
Joe Soldodoron; hailing from Michi-
gan state, has roamed the wide world
DER for many years, but never loved
SO affectionately Al Grand Forks. His
queer actions caused his being taken
to the county jail. He was examined
for insanity but it was decided that
he did not warrant confinement in
an asylum and he was told to leave
town Immediately.
But still he fingered. He loved this
little old town, he said. The most
beautiful part of the city is the coun-
tay b~astile, according to the drifter
and he refused to leave the doors of
his haven. :

An hour before train time last eve

deputy; sheriff and-wonder of won
der-Joe was washing his more init
mate garments, the only ones he own
ed. Right here is where the Judge
began to worry. Joe's company was
no longer desired at the Jail, and yet
his only buds we're on the line.
The Judge is thankful for modern
invention. An electric fan vas call
ed into play, and Joe's clothes were
nicely dried by train time.
Enter a deputy's sheriff.
Exit, Joe Soldoldoron for. the west.
How Joe could break his sffec-
tionate ties to this city is unknown
and may always remain q mystery
but it is rumored that he was told Of
a wonderful land in the far west
where life is one continual round Of
eating and sleeping and the word
work is unknown. It sounded like

this country.
Preparations for the moving Of the
prisoners were kept a close secret, and
it was only through the .carelessness
Of some clerk that they were includ-
ed in the roster Of the Agamemnon

The plan was to send the prison
ers to s~oAis,isolated army post, where
they might te given military protec-
tion for d time. Eventually, it is
supposed they will have been permit

try, there to begin their lives anew,
Officials will not say whether this
plan can be safely followed now.

THE ORIGIN OF TROUBLE.

People who want to locate the very root and propagating center of all the present social turmoil will be about right when they put their f1n- gers on Russia. That is where the infection starts from. It will keep on injecting until Russia acquires mental health and comes back to earth again.
 It is Russia that has sent it's Bol- shevist agents all over the world. creating class hatred, stirring up so- cial war, and doing everything possi- ble to create a world revolution.
 When they seized the Russian gov ernment, the Bolshevists not merely got control of the printing presses that would print Russian money by the bale, but they also acquired an enormous stock of gold that will pass current anywhere. Instead of taking 1t to build up their country and to esta bIish their social experiments on as sound a basis as possible, they have used it to disseminate poison.
 Even when that stock of gold gives out, their agents can keep right on- Labor Is so short that they can come to this country and find work and use their jobs as a center for propa- ganda.
 The high prices are a principal cause why this propaganda spreads. And enc great reason for high food prices Is that Russia, formerly one of the great food producing districts of the world, is paralyzed by it's in- sanity, and can not feed itself. If Russia could recover from her at tack of delirium tremens, and begin again to export food to the rest of Europe, social conditions would quiet

Buuish activities continue to be prominent in the industrial section of the stock market, and the general trading policy Of buying diecr1nlinat- ingly on reactions, seems to be 1usti- fed The WheIan group is we'll thought of, and we believe these stocks offer profit to those who take advantage of buying opportunities,
 Evidence Of good buying has been noted in United States Steel and Re public Iron and Steel. There Is a tendency to retire short contracts iE the copper list. Southern Pacific, Reading, Union Pacific and Atchtson display, conspicuous strength when attention Is turned to the railroad stocks
 Rubber and food shares are under stood to be well bought on reces- s1ons-
 There is no doubt In banking circles that the railroads can be returned to private ownership this year, as planned, owing to lack of proper legislation No rates are to be increased while the roads are under Government control
 A bumper corn crop is indicated by the latest Government report, which gives promise Of q substantial yield of wheat, but smaller than at first indicated.
 New York bank clearings for the year ended Sept 30 broke all records. The Federal Trade Commission says the public is swindled out of half billion dollars yearly through wild cat securities
 Call money rates have been strong on account of October dividend and interest payments, and bank shifting of financing accounts and Victory Loan payments
