Hays Charge. That Liquor II
terests Are Bent on Unit
ing to Elect Cox
DEMOCRATS HAVE BIG
MACHINE, SAYS HARDING
Declares Charges Made by Cox
Are False and Libelous
in Their Purpose
(By United Press.)

Chicago, Aug. 80 (by L. G. Mar
TIM. Senatorial investigation of
Governor Cox's charge that the repub-
lican national committee was PLAN
ming to raise SIS, 100000 campaign
fund and that 'sinister interests were
trying to buy an underhold upon the
presidency"-would be begun here
today.
Chicago, Aug. 80 (by L. c. Mar
TIM :-"Organized liquor interests in
the United States have set out to
elect Governor Cox Of Ohio as presi-
dent, and are raising campaign funds
for that purpose" Will H. Hays,
chairman of the republican national
committee, charged today before the
senate subcommittee. Hays read into
the records letter written by George
Carroll, president of the New Jersey
Federation of Liquor Interest, under
date of July 20, 1920, asking for con-
tributions to help elect Cox and keep
the anti-saloon league out Of power.
The letter called Cox's nomination "a
great victory for III"
Harding charged that the demo-
Gratis have created a machine to col
lect campaign: funds of $10,000,000.
He did not charge that the machine
was functioning but that it was ready
to function; that the democrats had
misused their control of government
offices in Washington by sending
through official channels "tons of pro-
paganda and have forced officeholders
into contributing to the democratic
fund.-"
"Cox's charges are false in what
they say and libelous in their pur-
pose," Harding declared when he
took the stand as the first witness in
the investigation. In long statement to
the committee he said that the ma
tional committees budget for the
campaign for this year calls for 49,
079,037.20. That sum, or approx
mately that sum, will be raised and
spent, and not $15,o0o,00o, as Cox
charged"
Harding said that the 100000
does not include collections for state
work as there is mutual agreement
that such collections for state and ma
tional committees shall be done joint
ly. ut is my opinion that the whole
amount which has been and will be
finally collected by joint money rails
ing organizations for the use of state
committees in their state elections
will approximate 81 100000"

NO OPEN SEASON
FOR PRAIRIE CHICKENS

I would like to call the atten-
ton of your patrons regarding
the game laws as the time is
drawing near for the issuance
of small game licenses, the sea-
son opening on September 16
and continuing until December
81 for ducks cartridges, or
ruffed grouse, from October Is
to November 3O). I wish to
also advise that there is no open
season for prairie chicken this
year.
The bag limit for ducks is
fifteen per day and forty-fve in
possession. Geese, five per day
with five in possession. PART
ridges, five per day with twenty
in possession.
The shipment of game is pro-
hibited except on license
coupon.
The license fee for small
game is 81 with two cents extra,
if mailing is required.
The following quotation is
taken from a letter received by
me from Carlos Avery, game
commissioner, relative to the
issuance of licenses to appli-
cants who did not file the report
of game taken on last years
license:
"The law prohibits issuing a
license to applicant who has not
made his report for last year,
but you may receive reports as
new applications are made and
they will be accepted at this
office, the object of the law be-
ing to secure the information
and statistics as completely as
possible"
Blank applications will be
furnished to banks, notaries,
and others who wish to be sup
piled with the same. I would
kindly. urge that those wishing
to secure small game licenses
should make application early
so that no delay will be expert
enced when the season opens.
Those not living in Bemidji may
secure application blanks by
writing to the county auditors
office at Bemidji inclosing pos
tage for return. Applicant may
have same filled out before
notary or anyone else entitled
to acknowledgment and forward
same to the office of the auditor
inclosing $1.02 for license.
Yours truly,
A. D. JOHNSON,
County Auditor.

CANAL WOULD BRING
MONTREAL MUCH CLOSER
Twenty-Mile Cut Recommend
ed to Put Quebec Nearer
III New York Industries
(By United Press)


Montreal, Que, Aug. 30-Montreal
wan is to be nearer New York. And
while the city will never change its
situation. it may yet become SO miles
closer the American metropolis, at
least so far as freight shipments and
costs are concerned. y.
Canadian shipping interests pro-
pose to effect the change by means of
a barge canal from Montreal to st.
Johns, Quebec. The proposition will
be put before the international joint
commission, which Is to meet here In
October to consider st. Lawrence riv-
erl development.
Eat present Montreal is 458 miles
from New York by canal and river.
The route is now As miles down the
st. Lawrence river to Sorel. Que, and
then Az miles up the Richelieu river
to Lake Champlain and the Hudson
river. But by cutting canal thru
the 20 miles between Montreal and
st.. Johns, l0S miles would be saved
or a net gain made Of SS miles.
Existing canals at the Canadian
end of the system are only feet 6
inches deep and with capacity of
only 3O0-ton barges. Those in the
United States are of standard 12-foot
draft. and will take care Of barges Of
$500 tons.
e The proposed canal was first sug-
gested before the war but actual
work was delayed by hostilities. The
river-canal is declared more profit
able because it hits into the eastern
Industrial and coal districts Of the
United States, while the Great Lakes
system does not.
