That it pays to deal with home
merchants or those who are near
enough to get at in case some
thing is wrong is evidenced by an
article in the Mora Times of
last week.
Following is the article:
"A man from Iowa was in the
ounty last week for the purpose
Of buving potatoes. He said he
was representing n big concern
there that dealt extensively in
al kind Of farm produce. This
man told the farmers that the

for political gain? 1t. is general
ly conceded that the Non-Parti-
san League has gained many
votes in the state owing to Burn
GUSTS action and it looks like
Frankson is trying to climb onto
the band wagon, for he has his
eye on the office of governor.
Right or wrong one thing must
be said of Governor Burnquist
and that is that he sticks to his
convictions. He always voted
against a tonnage tax while a
member of the legislature.

Is " law and order" not an
order of the day or are we just
going rad? 1t at least seems
there is something wrong with a
lot of people down in Omaha for
when the Mayor there got up
and tried to talk sense and rea-
son to mob the other day he
eaTne very near being hanged.
Two attempts were made to
hang him but in both instances
the police were fortunate to get
ucar enough TO cut the rope. Of
course the mayor was not the
original one the mob wanted -
they wanted Negro who had
committed assault on n white
woman. and because the Mayor
argued to let the law take it's
course they went after him also.
The Chief Of Police was also
obliged to hurry away when he
tried to reason with the mob
after the Mayors futile attempt.
The mob burned the magnificent
new court house in order to get
at the Negro. thereby also en-
danperinp the lives If all the
other prisoners. They got the
Negro but at what cost and dis
grace? 1t appears that an ex-
clamation Of lets get down to
sense" would he in order. The
Mayor and Chief Of Police prob
ably had no more sympathy for
the Negro than did the mob. All
they asked for was law and
order.

The staid old London Times,
for the first time in its 13l years.
recently printed a base ball box
score. and describes the game in
slang that would make an Amer
lean take a back seat. Following
is a sample:
"In a closely contested game
of baseball at Oxford between
Oxford and Cambridge teams
composed for the most part of
former American college men at
tending the two universities,
Oxford won, 6 to 4.
THE pastime was featured by
the heavy stick work of Wallace,
former Harvard star. who slam
med out a three-bagger and a
homer in three tries with the
willow. For the first three
frames both teams hung tough
and allowed no scoring. The
fourth inning netted a brace for
the home lads. Ives clouted one
to center and Richards let the
sphere slip. Eagle watched four
bad ones go by. and. after Ives
was tagged trying to steal home.
was pushed over for the first tai
ly when Williams leaned against
one for two sacks. Shawnecy
went bad here. and gave Storey
q free ticket. and Wallace came
through with three-cushion
bingle that showed Williams and
Storey across. Brown ended the
agony by missing three"

Everyone can hear the word
jazz used nowadays but who
knows where it originated from?
We have generally taken it to be
what symphony is not, but here
is an article from the Pioneer
Press which describes it fairly
well:
What "iazz" is we cannot de-
fine, hu+ tho best Of definitions
would be only an approximation.
On it's origin we take the liberty
Of a guess. Ragtime, we have
been informed, came into being
in the Negro tenderloin Of a
great city. Wherever "jazz"
halls from historically, it is a
palpable revcrsion to the wild
weird, liccntious effects Of the
tribal dance chant.
There are various interpreta-
tions of jazz as performed to-
day. Some are refined and arti-
site just as the costumes and
dances of barbarism may be made
refined and artistic. Others are
hare-brained, coarse and libidin-
Gus and are characterized by loss
Of dignity paralleled only by an
old-fashioned African jubilation.
And high society will applaud
while thugs run off with Verdi
and Gounod!

be used for shipping potatoes
this winter and advised the
farmers to market all their pota-
toes before cold weather sets in.
e. A. Larson, of the farm
bureau office tried to get in
touch with the man and question
him as to his authority for that
statement, but was unable to To-
cate him. However, the state
ment is false; the government
has issued no such order and will
not. Undoubtedly this man knew
he was telling a falsehood but
thought he could influence some
farmers to believe him and be
induced to sell on the present
low market. This is the kind
of middlemen that deserves and
ought to be eliminated. Such a
man is a friend neither of the
producer nor consumer and takes
all he can get for himself. A
man who would tell such a mali
cious falsehood in buying would
have a different story to tell in
selling to get the highest pos
sible price. If any farmers have
sold to this man as a result of a
statement such as the above,
notify the Farm Bureau Office.

Grady, representing Great BGitain, the question of the reatriationl of Brit ish prisoners held ;n Soviet Russia, already has attempted to carry the negotiations beyond the definitely specified field.
 One of Litvinoff's first moves was to propose to Mir O'GEatly that the allies lift their blockade on Soviet Russia. This fact, 1t lis considered expressed among members of the di- plomatic corps in LoIt3on that Lit vinoff on behalf of the ,Bolsheyiki re- girne in Russia intended to make oth- CT proposals than those relating to prisoners.
 There are rumors that the. Bolshe- wiki will trys to effect a peace with the entente through Mr. OGrady.
 Private advices concerning the con ference in Copenhagen say that the Bolshevik attitude Is more concilia- tory Among other things, Litvinofi is said to have offered to telegraph Moscow, Petrograd and other Bolshe- vik cities to obtain full reports as tC the condition of, British subjects 1T them. While Great Britain is Sdsply in i terested in the trend of af-ai1si at Co penhagen, it was reatfh1rs.d today that MT.

REPORTS FROM THE COAL FIELDS OF WEST VIRGINIA

Charleston, W. Va. Nov. 2I.-Predic- tions were made tonight by Ben sF. Morris, assistant secretary of'the Kan awha Coal Operators association. that 60 per cent. of the mines. in the kan awha district would be working tomor- row. All mines were closed today owing to it being q holiday. 'Produc- ten ill the kanawha district for We'd nesday was estimated at SO per cent. of normal by AIr. Morris. although he said he had received no definite reports on the situation.
 T. l.. Lewis. secretary of theF New River Coal Operators association, said tonight that as the mines were closed today there had been no developments | in his district. Resolutions adopted at a meeting of
 the district executive board of District No. IT, United Mine Workers, were
 made public tonight by Fred s. Moo ney, secretary treasurer of the local union. Copies of the resolutions have been mailed to President Wilson, the
 members of his cabinet and to con gressmen.
 We have the assurances of a num- 1 ber of the members of congress thai ! they will go to the mat with us in SC. curing a federal investigation of condi- tions in the Guyan valley field Mir Mooney said, "and we are confiden from the information we have tha there will be ample sufficiency of con
 gressional support to bring the desired action The resolutions assert that the Guy
 an operators compel the miners "t'
 work under the most inhuman and un
 just conditions that these miners ar
 denied the right to have their coa
 weighed that theV are paid wage
 greatly below those paid in the uniol
 fields" and that the operators of tn Guyan valley are now, and have fo ; Some years past, maintained a privat
 army of thugs and gunmen for tn / purpose of preventing any attempts o the men to organize into a union"
 The commission is styled "notori | ously prejddiced one" and the a&Ate ment is made that "a number of beat . en and assaulted witnesses have ap i peared before tlie said commission an
 exhibited wounds receiced at the hand ' of the armed guards of the operator. , and upon returning to their homes b
 the advice of Governor Cornwell. hay
 again been brutally assaulted an driven out of the fields"
 The charge is made that "Governo Cornwell is now and has been doin all in his power to prevent an inde pendent inquiry into the condition within his Jurisdiction"
 The resolutions ask congress ''t immediately take some steps to pro tect the citizens of this part of We. !. Virginia, and that commission wit full power to compel the appearance witnesses be immediately appointe e and sent to southern West Virgini e and particularly to the Guyan field.'

CAMP FOR DETENTION
 OF UNDESIRABLE ALIENS

New York, Nov Establishment of a large camp or cantonment for de- tention of undesirable aliens pending investigation and disposal of their cases is the latest plan of the house immigration comomittee now conduct ing an inquiry at Ellis Island. it was announced tonight.
 The camp would be similar to those in use during the War for the intern ment of enemy aliens and would be the temporary abiding place of all agi- tators collected anywhere in the United States who, by their condstct or utter ances, make their further soiourn in this country questionable.
 It is the opinion of the investigating legislators that such corral will aid substantially the work of centralizing the disturbers and will result in much more rapid expedition of their exit to the lands from whence they came. The task of deportation, it is suggested will eventually devolve on the depart ment of justice instead of the depart ment of labor.
