that he might live to be 100 years

that many years in the world. Mr..
Lincoln, who is still going strong,

has passed the century mark. Con-
gratulatory letters and birthday
cards from China and Korea were
received by the aged man on his
natal day. while friends here liter
ally showered him with flowers.
Asked for a recipe for such a
long life, Mr.. Lincoln replied that
they were activity, optimism and
temperance, with the accent on the
last qualification. Liquor never did
good for any one except as medi.
cine" declares the centenarian, "and
it has been the cause Of great
deal Of HARM
Lincoln thinks that though pro-
hibition won't come in a day, it will
arrive eventually. Awaiting that
happy time he is still tabooing to-
bacco and alcohol, as he has done
all his life, and is eating his three

Paris, June 2l.-Accusing the Brit
;sh government of starting a series
of reprisals against Irish men and
women as result of the atrocities
report" filed by the Irish-American
commissioners here with the peace
congress and charging that the ia
nous Sim Fein woman leader, the
countess Of Markiswicz, a member
of the Irish Parliament, has been
jailed to prevent her from test;fying
before 4 possible inquiry by the
peace conference commission, Frank
p Walsh and Ex-Governor Edward
+. Dunno of Illinois, have sent a
letter to Premier Lloyd George and
the American peace commission,
requesting the release of the
countess.
The letter points out that she was
arrested and is now being punished
as a reprisal and gives the following
reasons:
Countess Has Evidence.
81. Much of the detailed evidence
Of the atrocities committed against
women prisoners in Ireland was fur
nished US by the countess Of Mar
i:iewicz.
- She has in her possession evil
dence of certain unspcakable out
RACES the details of which have not
yet been published, but which we
intend to submit to the commission
of inquiry when selected by the
peace congress.
g. We have indubitable proof at
hand that during the course of our
investigation in Ireland the countess
was Swallowed by spies in the en-
ploy of the British government and
q direct threat was made against her
during the progress of our inquiry.
Arrested Following Report.
- She was arrested on frivolous
charges after our report was sent to
you
IS. The sentence imposed upon
her is for length of time which
would keep her in Jail during the
inquiry that may be made by the
peace congress.
"We sincerely hope that, animated
by a decent regard for the opinion
Of mankind, which we know you
cherish, and in view of the forego-
ing considerations, especially having
in mind the danger to the life of
the countess of Markiewicz
through suffering in Jail, you will
use vour great mower and authority
rs prime minister of Great Britain
TO secure the immediate release of
this revered and worthy woman.
Fear More Arrests.
1--WE have, moreover, reasons to
apprehend that arrests of other wo-
men who suffered atrocities on their
twn persons while in Jail, or who
witnessed them upon others, are
impending, and that it is the pur-
pose Of the English government to
remove from Ireland men and wo-
men whose testimony may be indis-
pensable to the proposed investiga-
ton
I'VE make this request, not at the
instance of the countess of Markie-
wicz or of the Irish government, but
on the grounds of common human
tty so that when a committee of in
luirv is appointed, those upon whom
atrocities have been practiced or
who have witnessed them will not

WILL FORCE n,
P. LEGISLATORS
TO SHOW STAND
Representatives Ness and Peter
son Let Townleyites In
For Trouble

With from $4,000 to $4,000 returned
soldiers in the state with their eyes
on the special session Of the 10th as
sembly, league leaders do not regard
it kind of Representative Ness ana
Peterson, independents, to force the
Townleyites to again 60 on record in
favor Of the red flag, or at least
against any effort to suppress it.
The Ness-Peterson bill is the same
measure which died such a prema-
ture, death in, the house during the
last regular session, when Townley
and his secret caucus were in full
bloom. That was before the begin
ming of the insurgent movement
which is still growing. There was no
roll-call on the red flag bill. and the
Townleyites were not forced to 90 on
record. :
The Independent faction In thu
house at present is larger and strong
er, and it is determined, il possible
to place every legislator on record on
the red flag bill. The. Peterson Ness
measure is similar to a law now in
force in Minnesota. 1t prohibits the
carrying in a parade or the exhibition
in any hall or public place of aay
banner except that Of America or q
friendly nation, and it specifically for
bids the carrying Or display at any
time or place Of the red flag OF revo
luton and the black flag of anarchy.
This bill, together with a measure
defining and penali2ing syndicalism
is not expected to receive the undi
vided approval of Bishop Lcmke's Sc
Cret caucus.

CRAZED AMERICAN
TRIES TO REMOVE

Abernethy, Saskatchewan, Nov.
22.-Deteermined apparently to
wipe out the entire family Of Mr..
and Mrs. Fred Hanson farmers
living near here, J. r. Sullivan
an American visiting at the Han
son home shot and killed Mr.. and
Mrs. Hanson, shot and seriously
wounded the eldest Hanson boy,
lined up the three othere Hanson
childrn apparently to kill them
and then changed his mind and
blew out his own brains... The
Hansons came here from Mime
apoIis.
It is thought that Sullivan sud-
denly became insane. The Hanson
boy who was shot is reported to
be in critical condition. The
other children declared that after
Sullivan had lined them against
the wall and just before he shot
himself he told them to "oet off

WILL BE RELIEVED
OF HEAVY BURDEN

Discovering that from 500 to 600
calls were being handled daily from
customers desiring to know the run
ming time OF trains and other details
which are generally furnished by the
railway ticket offices, the Bismarck
exchange of the North Dakota lnde-
pendent Telephone Co. has found it
necessary to discontinue this service,
which is interfering to too great an
extent with the natural telephone
traffic. -s
Hereafter patrons instead of ask
ing central for information concern
ing trains will call for the Northern
Pacific or the 500 line ticket offices.
1t is suggested that these offices make
an effort to handle their telephone
calls promptly, thus expediting serv-
ice. ~

$60,000,000 BOND
ISSUE FOR ROADS
TODAY
Senate Highway Committee APP
proves Great Highway
Building Program
AUTOS TO EARN TAXES
Principal and Interest Would Be
Refunded From Motor
Car Licenses
AUTOS TO EARN TAXES

Backed by the administration and
the highway department. the Senate
committee on highways has prepared
for Introduction this afternoon con-
current resolution submitting to the
people Il proposal for an amendmen;
which will make it possible for the
state to bond for $5O,OO0,OOO for tho
construction of permanent, hard-sur-
faced roads. The program contem.
plates linking up every county seat III
the state with a permanent, gravei.
surfaced highway. eighteen feet wi 10
and with six-inch surface.
The program is similar to the Bab-
cock plan, now under consideration in
Minnesota. The bond issue would in
vOlve no increase in taxes. its advo-
Gates contend, the plan being to re-
fund interest and principal from fees
collected from the licensing Of motor
vehicles. In order to procure year.
ly income sufficient to pay the interest
on a $4,000, 900 bond issue and to ere
ate n sinking fund.- 1t would be neces-
sary to at least treble the present net
revenue from motor vehicle licenses,
which does not exceed $50O,OOO per
annum, and which would be but one
percent on $5O,0O0,O0O. 1t is believed,
however, that the automobilists with
permanent, hard-surfaeea, all-year-
round roads in prospect, would be
willing to stand the boost.
The Senate highways committee ha
this under consideration all day yes
terday and it finally agreed on the
form of a resolution which is expect
ed to 90 in this afternoon.
PROVISION AGAINST TAX
In order that there may be no pos
sibility Of the proposed bond issue at
fecting general taxes, it is provided in
the bill, as it will finally be introduced
this afternoon, that the highway bonds
shall be issued only in such amounts
as may be retired by the income from
the licensing Of motor vehicles. Sen
ator Carol d. King of Burleigh county
is the author of the bill evolved from
the dcliberation Of the highway com.
mission.
