Too Busy Beavers.

100 6uoy Beavers.
The Canadian Pacific railway Is ex.
pefiencing difficulty at different places
between White River and Cartier on
account Of beaver dams being erected
and flooding It's lands. At one place a
dam was erected Id the center Of .
culvert. and part Of the filling had to
be removed in order to do away with
It. When this was done the beavers
built another little further down the
stream. and this also had to be re-
moved on account Of the backwater.

that the government should declare on

RIGHT WRONG OF 1870
Foreign Minister Pichon Says Alsaes.
Lorraine Question Has Been Set

dent Wilson's Point.

Paris, Feb. 18.@The various ques-
tions involved in the peace negotia-
tions were again discussed with for
eign press correspondents by Stephen
Pichon, the French foreign minister.
The question of plebiscite demand
ed by Germany to settle the future of
Alsace-L Lorraine, M. Pichon holds, has
already been decided by the accept
ance OF President Wilson's point rela-
tive to righting the wrong Of 1870.
The elections to be held shortly in
Alsace-Lorraine, he added, would at
ford occasion to confirm that under
standing and he predicted that not q
single delegate would be elected to
the French Chamber Of Deputies from
the recovered provinces who would op-
pose their return to France.

The French government, the minis
ter said. opposes the projected union
Of the German part of Austria to Ger
many which matter is now being
studied by commission.
France had given her full support
to the league of nations, but that there
was need of measures in addition to
the plan as it stood had been voiced
by M. Bourgeois. Unanimity would
be preserved, however, in the discus.
sion. Amendments will be offered and

Russian Problem Critical.
An effort will be made to find a 80.

M. Pichon said, was no lonCe9s U6fely
question Of conference at Prinkipo,
but a much broader one. Something
must be done. he added, to terminate
the present situation in Russia.
Referring to the desire of Holland
to be heard by the conference before
action is taken on the Belgian demand
for the annexation of Dutch territory
the minister said that the Belgians
themselves had favored consultation
with Holland in such event.

Army Medical Corps Officer Tell. Of
6rest Fatalities.
Washington, Feb. 18.-Major Samuel
w. Ellsworth of the Medical corps,
recently returned from France, told
the senate military committee that
many returning American soldiers
were dying of disease at the embar.
kation camp at Brest, France, after
coming from the front line in good
physical condition.
II could forgive a heavy death rate
and unsanitary conditions when we
were sending troops to France and
when the Germans were breaking
through the Allied lines," he said, "but
when the war Is over these conditions
should be remedied.'

Youngquist. near Monango, won first
place in the baking contest. The

bakings of various kinds of bread.
It may be of interest to many house
1ives to know that this little girl
baked 100 loaves of bread and with
saving of 175 lbs. of -four.
This is a very good example of the
achievements Of our Dickey county
boys and girls. =

first in corn. with yield of mature
corn of 20 bushels, and first in in
dividual canning as Miss Neva John
son of Cogswell has 4S0 quarts of

It has been great disappointment
to the boys and. girls Of our county
in not being able to have their an
nual exhibits and achievement days,
as generous prizes were offered by
the business men of Oakes and El-
lendale, and by several individuals
of our county. Altho the business
men of Oakes will guarantee the ex-

the sale Of War Savings and Thrift
stamps be made a permanent feature

THEY WILL BACK UP

~ HERE is not much danger
VI that the Republican SEN
ators will insist on block
ing the peace treaty and the
League of Nations plan when
the matter is finally placed be-
fore the senate for approval.
The League of Nations is so
plainly forward and neces-
sary step that no political
party can afford to stand in op-
position to it. Should the Re-
publican leaders in the senate
insist on maintaining their
present attitude they will drive
their party upon the rocks. As
to public feeling towards the
League of Nations the st. Louis
Post Dispatch says:
We venture the opinion that the
league to guarantee justice and peace
among nations is the most popular
Thing i'm America. as well as Europe.
and that the American peopie will not
stand for defeating or endangering
this great advance i'm civilization and
humanity ON account of party politics,
personal jeaIousies, resentments or
ambitions. Public men who are
prompted by these motives to block
progress are playing with dynamite.
The vote in the Pennsylvania district
is n warning.
Neither can the objectors ex-
pect to fool the people with

American interests. Their cri-
