FARMRS REJECT AN
ALLIANCE ADVOCATE

WEISER, Idaho.-Oregon members
of the Farmers union have repudiated
the political leadership OF j. D.
Brown, who is we'll known in
Weiser and Washington county
through his organization activities
here for several years. Mr.. Brown
has been turned out of the presidency
of the union and the ideas he strongly
championed have been rejected.
Favored an Alliance.
President Brown favored an alli-
ance of the Farmers union with the
non-partisan league and the state fed
Grafton of labor. At the recent meet
ing Of the farmers union at The Dali
les President Brown in an address
strongly advocated Endorsement of
the non-partisan league.
Before the convention ended resolu-
tions were adopted strongly con-
demning the league.
A. R. Shumay, of Milton, was ell
ected as Browns successor.
The position of the union at the
recent convention was that it would
not affiliate with any but farmers
and the non-partizan
league was not regarded as farming
but as a political body.

NORTH DAKOTA MAY
Be COAL MINE STATE
LIGNITE COAL DEPOSITS THERE
PRACTICALLY INEXHAUST-
IBLE is REPORT

FARGO, N. D.-Because industry
must go where there is plenty of fuel,
the United States Geological survey
predicts at no very distant date the
establishment of new Pittsburg"
at or near this city.
Investigations made by the Geo
logical survey show that here is a
region, centering at Fargo, covering
thousands of square miles, that IS
underlaid with more coal than the
state OF Pennsylvania.
This coal is neither anthracite nor
bituminous. 1t is 'lignite," with
about two-t thirds of the fuel value of
bltuminous coal in it's natural state.
Just as taken from the ground, it
burns freely, and is very widely used
throughout this state tor fuel.
Some manufacturing plants use it
In its natural state. Some permit it
to be exposed to the air until it's
water content has evaporated and it
disintergrates. Then 1t is sprayed"
into the furnaces with automatic
stokers.
Now, after long experiment,
method has been devised whereby the
ignite is evaporated, mixed with
"Dlnder'' and compressed into briquet-
tes which defy all kinds of weather
and produce heat units as high as
anthracite.
Even before this method had been
perfected, the tremendous value of
these coal beds was recognized by the
Geological survey, and now the pre-
dlctlon is made that in the near future
the valley of the Red River of the
north, wnere they are located, will
become one OF our greatest manu-
featuring regions.
