EDITOR OF RICHLAND
ADDRESSES LABOR DAY
CROWD AT WOLF POINT

Wolf Point, Sept 11.-Frank H.
korab, editor of the Richland County
Leader, addressed a gathering of union
men and other citizens at the Liberty
theater on Labor day. He maintained
that food and the distribution of food
had been directly or indirectly respon-
sible for all wars since history began,
and stated that upon the shoulders of
the producers of food rested civiliza-
ton. A system which forces farmers to
produce food at a loss, will force them
off the farms, he said, and curtail the
production of food which will result
in higher prices and consequent harder
times.

GOV. COX PROVES HE
IS ONE LUNG CANDIDATE

be the really big man he is, the mar
fitted for the highest office the people
of the United States can bestow upon
him. Senator Harding is leaving what
answers are necessary to the managers
OF the party who have charge of the
raising funds. He is using his time to
tell the people the truth about the
World Club and the many other mat
tiers that concern the life of US all.
While Governor Cox was driving a
race horse at the Minnesota State
Fair, Senator Harding was making a
digniied speech at a gathering of the
Marion Trades Union. He was taking
up the great problems Of labor that
must be faced in this country and
talking about them in a sincere and in
teligent way, as should be done by a
man who will reside in the White
House for the next four years. Here
is just a paragraph from that speech
to show you that Senator Harding is
thinking and acting at all times for
America:
I want to stress the need Of
pride. There is little enough to in
spirs u modern system, and l want
to magnify all there is. And above all
else want American workmen to feel
that American products are the best in
the world. There is only a touch of
satisfaction to say our output is the
biggest, but it sets the heart aglow to
proclaim Americas output is the
BEST
Those are the words of a big man:
the words of a mar who thinks and is
ready to act at all times in such man
ner that America may again take her
place Of leadership in the world. They
are the words of a man who listens to
the judgment of other big men. They
are the words of a man who will not
try to u the country just as he alone
might think it should be run, and
they are the words Of a man who is too
big to engage in mudslinging politics.
II the Democratic party stands for
anything besides the pettifogging
rantings of their nominee, they had
better hurry up and let the public
know it,"

All Harvard Is astir over the revela-

and accusations that certain fraternity
cliques dominated the election.
Fifty seniors presented a petition
to the senior class nominating COM

announced that new election would
be held Monday.
College officials thus far have left the
entire matter in the hands OF the NOM
mating committe. II Is reported. how
ever II proof is obtained OF illegal bal
loting the guilty persons will be dis
missed summarily from the college.
The scandal IL the topic OF the day
az the college. According to the nom
mating committee 1t appears that while
only 9f5 votes could have possibly been
cast there were actually 965 votes cast.
The alleged discrepancies centre about
second and third marshal, otherwise
known as second vice-president and third
president.
Investigation by the committed IL is
reported. shows that Dennis +. O'Con-
nell captain of the Harvard track team,
should have had sixty more votes than
credited in Wednesdays election. and
that Robert (Duke) Sedgwick. a fra
ternity man. received more votes than
the number to which he was legally en-
titled.
The nominating committee after its
Investigation stated that O'Connell
should have been elected second marshal
in place of Sedgwick. O'Connell. It. is
asserted. lacked nineteen votes OF get
ting the position.
Included In the testimony offered to
the nominating committee. IL was re-
ported that n strip of fifty ballots was
taken from the voting booths at Memo

have not yet been accounted for.
The vote on Wednesday was as fol-
lows: II. III. Faxon. first marshal 277 (;

2 CENT RAIL RATE STANDS:
ACTION OF p. s. C.. IS UPHELD
Court of Appeals Rules State Has Power to Restore
Pre-War Contract Fare

Special Despatch 70 THE New YORK HERALr.
ALBANY. Dec. 10.-The Court of APP
peals this afternoon upheld the pow
ers of the Public Service Commission
and the State authorities over railroad
rates within the State when it decided
that the New York Central Railroad
must return to the two cent mile
rate between Albany and Buffalo, as
provided in its original charter agree
ment with the State. The attorneys
for the railroad here announced they
would Immediately appeal to the
United States Supreme Court.
The two cent rate was in effect un-
til the Government took over the rail-
roads of the country during the war
as a war measure. Three cents mile
was then charged. and the railroad
has continued TO charge that rate in
spite of the fact that Congress, accord
ing TO the court. has provided that the
wartime fare could be continued only
until changed by state or Federal au-
thority. The court holds that the
Public Service Commission is a State
authority, and points out that it or
dered the railroad to revert to the two
cent rate since the roads were turned
back to their owners.
The present action was instituted
by Attorney General Newton and the
Second District Public Service Com
mission. The New York Central held

REPUBLICAN leaders of the
House in conference to-day
decided that the usual Christmas
recess should be abandoned this
year-at least so far as the
House is concerned. The reason,
according to Republican leader
Mondell, is that unless this is
done the regular appropriation
bills cannot be passed before the
close of the session. If the
Senate wishes to recess for two
weeks the House will agree to
this provided it may continue IN
session, he said.
House leaders agreed to al

pected the, United States to uphold at
least this portion of President Wilson'S
covenant creation At the same time
military men here find the position Of
the United States satisfactory and as
justifying any measures France may
have to take for her own protection.
This can best be interpreted by the re-
marks of u French War Office official
who said: "The United States does not
believe I'm disarmament. IL she is not
great enough to stand Off her enemies.
what chance would France have II she
listened to the peace cranks and turned
her only means of protection into
ploughshares or automoplles?"
The little army enthusiasts in the
French Parliament, however, intend to
insist on Deputy Claude's new army law
providing for gradual disarmament MS
soon as n similar movement is mani
tested by one time enemy States and the
friendly big Powers. but France does
not intend TO be the first to disarm.

contrast. 1914 Position.

A similar attitude is being taken by
French newspapers which have been the
stanchest friends the league had here.
The Ltberte contrasts the Franco-B Bel
gian position now with what it was In
1914 when Belgium had less than 1000
men under arms to repulse the German
invaders. The new alliance approved by
Brussels and Paris provides for Bel
gian force of at least 100000 trained
men in the skeleton organization. with at
least a million more men available to
protect Frances borders against a Ger
man advance.
Frances armed quota Is not yet GER
tain, but 1t is probable that the skeleton
formation system, combined with eigh-
teen months of intensive training for
men called to the colors. will eventually
be adopted. despite the efforts of Andre
Lefevre, Minister of War, to hold to a
two year period OF training for con-
scripts. This will give 700. 900 men con-
tinually available for immediate service,
and as soon as the French burdens in
the plebisclte areas, in Syria and in
Gilicia can be lightened these troops will
be concentrated largely along the east
ern frontiers.
