RULING UPON
STRENGTH OF GUARD

Washington, Oct. 1.-two de
cisions of wide importance to national
guard organizations throughout the
United States were announced by the
war department today. One prescribes
IS active enlisted men as the minimum
strength at which national guard in
fantry companies may be maintained,
while the second permits the enlist
ment OF recruits up to the day upon
which organizations leave home sta
tons for annual field training.
The announcement states that after
July /, 1921, the minimum peace
strength of national guard units shall
be the same as those prescribed for
the regular army. When the. peace
strength is greater than s., national
guard organizations may be main
such number OF national guard re-
serves as will equal or exceed the
minimum peace strength for similar
units of the regular army.
while this policy establishes the
active peace strength for companies
and corresponding units Of the ma
ticnal guard, very effort should be
made to encourage the maintenance
of such units at h peace strength
prescribed for the regular army,
which will be approximately 100 en-
listed men, the department ays
I'm order to facilitate the reorgan-
ization OF the national guard until
July 1, 1921, companies and corre-
spending units are to be recognized
with a minimum strength Of SO active
enlisted men.
THE second decision changes regu-
lations which required members of
national guard organizations to be
enlisted at least 60 days prior to at
tendance at camps of instruction in
order to receive pay for such service.
Under this change recruits may be
enlisted at any time and paid for at
tendance at camp"

her tone implied that his duty lay
next in that direction. The banker
had often noticed this gentle sugges-
ton in the nurses voice, it minded
him of something in his childhood and
he invariably obeyed it.. He might

IMAGINATION
OF EX-KAISER
WAS A BIG ONE

Berlin, Oct. 1.-The former German
Emperor William confidently expect

world war and then marshal his con-

what he termed the second Punic

the ems of a conflict for world su-

Erzberger, who was formerly min

arily retired from public political ac-
ing between the then Emperor Will
lam and the Reichstag leaders, after
the all of Chancellor Bethmann-Holl-
veg. and following the adoption of the
peace resolution in July 1917.
He says the emperor became en-
thusiastic over the phrase peace or

this unexpected display Of Imperial

The emperor's further remarks were

exclaimed.

the latter suggested that the poor Ru-

Erzberger adds that the whole meet

misfortune but it proved "the deepest

NO NEED TO r

Mr.. Townley has beer making some
blood-curdling threats. He declares
that if he is defeated in this cam
paign he will organize the state from
one end to the other and drive out
of business and out of the state the
business men who have opposed his
policies and refused to support his
candidates. That sounds rather ter
rifying. But there is nothing in it
The people of North Dakota, farmers
and business men alike, who are OPP
posing Townley have nothing to fear
if he is defeated. They will have
cause for worry only if he is uccess
full.
Townley's campaigns cost money.
The farmers of North Dakota have
are paying his bills. Airplanes and
automobiles, railroad transportation
and rooms and meals at the best
hotels for lily-fingered people who
are experts at farming with their
tongues than with their hands involve
large expenditure. The SIS which
the Nonpartisan league member pays
for two years membership will last
n of Townley's workers only a few
minutes, and those workers are liv-
ing on the fat of the land 365 days
In the year. And in spite of all the
funds that have been poured into
ToWnley's Golfers, there isn't enough
to go round. The state of North Da-
has money, quite a lot of it, and
the taxation possibilities are not yet
exhausted. Through the Bank OF
North Dakota Townley's agents have
the handling of all the public funds
OF the state, and we have seen some
thing Of the manner in which, through
this bank and other financial agencies.
public moneys have been requisitioned
for use in Townley's political CAM
pa;gns.
Let the Townley state administra-
ton be thrown out, and by that act
the public sources Of Townley's cam
paign funds will be dried up. It will
no longer be possible for him to dra u,
on the e%xchequer Of the state for his
Expense and the expenses of his
army OF campaigners. For whatever
money he received he will have to
apply to the individual members Of
his organization, and they are already
weary of putting up money for him
II Townley is defeated in this cleo
ton he will ~evaporate,. as all of his
financial schemes have done. There
wiz be no need for the people of
North Dakota to worry about his
threats.
