Bootlegging Over
Canadian Border
Grows Tremendous

Ottawa. Ont, Aug. "-The serious
ness of the business in bootlegging
whiskey between Canada and the
United states is disturbing the prov
incial and Federal authorities.
The Royal Northwest Mounted
Police are taking hand in the sup
preston of the bootlegging, but SO
far without much success. In Quebec
and New Brunswick, all along the
border. there is a well organized
bootlegging business, and apparently
little effort is being made to cope
with it. That there is an enormous
profit nj rum running is evident from
the prices paid. Whiskey has jump
ed 100 per cent, within the last siS
months. A bottle sells now for IS
to sS in Canada, and fancy prices are
said to prevail in the States.
That the great increase in imports
in whiskey into Canada is due to the
bootlegging is the general belief. Fol
the year ended March 1920, the I'M
ports of alcoholic liquors were w.
152.339, and for the same twelve
months of 1919 only $1,S60,963. II
1918 there was imported $4,o66,72s
The first three months fthis veal
shows the same increase.

cal peace officers, autoombile dealers.

public, IN bringing about better observ-
ance of motor vehicle regulations.
The meeting was production OF q
better understanding and interpreta-
ton of the provisions of the statutes
relatingto motor vehicles between the
automobile people themselves and the
secretary of states office.
1t is the intention of Mr.. Kozer tc
attend similar meetings of automobile
dealers and owners at other points

Nashville, Tenn, Aug. 7.--The for
NAL call for the special session of the
state legislature to begin Monday ana
to consider among other things rati-
fication of the federal suffrage
amendment was issued. today by Gov
ernor Roberts.
The first item mentioned in the
extra session call is action on the suf-
frage amendment. The next Is action
to fix the legal status of women. The
third item is to prescribe the quail
fications Of women for suffrage, in
cluding imposition of poll tax and to
provide for their registration.
Should the legislature act favor
ably on the amendment, Tennessee

which three members of the senate
and ten members of the house were
elected.

Gronna's Defeat
Due to Plague
of GrasS-Hoppers

Washington, August Z. - Between
grasshoppers and the Non-Partisah

North Dakota is one of the most
important of the spring wheat grow
ing States. Early this season grass
hoppers made their appearance there
it vast swarms. They attacked the
wheat in especially vicious manner in
the northern counties. Two main
droves composed the army under the
general descriptions of Melanopius

wheat. The later also gnaw the bark
from trees, and chew up hoe handles
and rakes.
When these ravenous insects got
busy, the farmers appealed to Senator
Gronna, who, being Chairman OF the
Committee on Agriculture, was re-
garded as the very man to get the
Government TO stamp out the plague.
The Senator sought to throw respon-
sibility on the Department of Agri-
culture by writing his constituents
that the department had money Tor
the work. He wrote this to the Gov
ernor of North Dakota, among others.
The Solicitor Of the department
found there were no funds available
for such purpose.
