Mr. Forkell was particularly dis
tressed with the League of Nations as

of Nations" he stated, until the last
king has gone to kingdom come. l

Harmony Prevails
The NOnpartisan league and Mr..
Blaine did not cause a breach in the
county Republican ranks to the sur
prise OF many who believed it impos-
sible to reconcile state socialism and
reaction. 1t was quite definitely made
known that should any concerted ac-
ton be taken against Senator La Fol-
lette's proteges havoc would result
both in the county Republican ticket
and the national. So the county CEN
trail committee refrained from any de-
nunciation. The effect of this is gen.
orally believed to mean that Republi-
can organizations generally will sup
port everyone Republican and will
thereby work for the election of Mr..
Blaine as well as Senator Lenroot.
Speakers
Among the speakers were ]. j..
OkOneski, of this city, and Dr. JOS
eph Barber of Marathon, both of whom
urged the support of the entire ticket.

er, and Franklin E. Gritzmacher, also
addressed the committee.
