EFFICIENCY
DEMONSTRATED BY
"A SEVERE TESTING

Efficiency of "Oildag' as motor
lubricant was demonstrated in Grand
Forks Saturday afternoon when the
crank case Of an automobile which
had been fabricated with 'Oildag''
was completely drained of all oil, and
tie machine was then driven at usual
touring speed for % miles on the
track. at the fair groundA
AT the conclusion of the not q
single part Of the mechanism was
damaged or overheated.
A similar and more evere test was
made with a motor truck at Fargo
during the state fair there.
The test was made to show that a
car which has been thoroughly lubri-
Gated with "Oildag'' can be driven
from 10 to SO miles without damage
after every bit of the oil has been
consumed

~EX.LEAGUER
RAPS TOWNLH
RULE IN STATE

George G. Reeder5 Of Michigan, N.
D., was once one Of the staunchest
supporters Of the N~onpartisan league
in Nelson county.
He was fully n accord with the
original program put before the peo-
pie by A. c. Townley. and other
league leaders, and fought hard for
its adoption.
But the Socialistic program adopted
by Townley and his henchmen has
brought about q very decided change
in the views Of Mr.. Reedef as well as
of thousands of other North Dako-
tans. What Mr.. Reeder thinks of the
Nonpartisan league now may be gath
cred from an interview recently given
per, which is in part reproduced be-
low
Mr.. Reeder said:
II have just emerged from one Of
the hottest. most vtndictive, and
meanly personal political campaigns
in which I was ever involved, and.
that is. saying something for I have
been In the newspaper game for about
rs years. The four year fight in my
state between the Nonpartisans and
the opposition has now invaded every
political and business interest Of u
citizens. and instead of being the
prosperous, contented people they
were years ago, acting in unison for
the good Of their respective commu-
mites and in the whole state. we find
the people a d~isorganized and re-
vengeful lot of individuals.
Spies abound. lies and ISLANDERS
of every kind flourish, and every
mans hand seems to be aimed at his
neighbours throat. The perspective
which I get from this distance enables
me to see clearly hat this disrupted
business and social condition is due
primarily to the Nonpartisan league.
The effort of the Nonpartisan
league is not to furnish the aid to
the farmers which perhaps they need,
but to establish a super-government,
making the constitutional representa-
tives elected by the people the under
lings and lackeys of the board Of
managers of the Nonpartisan league,
to take away from the people the
rights Of home rule and self-deter-
mination in the counties and to CEN
tralize all Of the money and the po-
litical power of the state and to put
it within their control. It is an UNI
American and a hideous thing and I
hope that the intelligence of your
people will meet the emergency"

PRICES OF woMEN's GARMENTS
 TRIPLE LOWER THIS sEAsol

Cooler weather Wednesday started up the demand for more reasonable apparel, so that the second opening day of the Norwich stores proved timely in every respect.
 Naturally, when the temperature low CTS, the first call is for dresses of some material heavier than the fimsy fabrics of the summer. To meet this demand the stores are well stocked with dresses i; in materials tricotine and tricolette lead, although there is still a call for satin.
 The correct skirt continues trifle less than two yards round, and is about eight inches fro mthe ground. In heavier ma terial skirts for suits are again cut se- verely plain, with the exception of plaid skirts, to be considered later. The skirts of street dresses are preferably orna- mented with beaded designs, elaborate in most instances.
 While wraps are much worn, it is pre- dicted that coats will maintain their lead for popular wear. The most fash ionable of these comfortable and becom- ing garments are fur-trimmed, the furs in order of popularity being raccoon Australian opossum, nutria, beaver and Hudson seal Cheaper coats come trim med with coney. This is to be biz fur season and the trimming is utilized in wide collars, pocket trimmings anc occasionally flor cuffs also.
 Prices for both coats and suits are 6 trife lower this fall. so that intending buyers have the encouragement of be ing certain to find modish garments al reasonable cost.
 As to material. for suits. cutters ar' using Bolivia, pompons, tweeds, velour delaine and suedeine.
 Straight lines continue to mark th' cut of all fashionable garments. mak ing for grace. youthful appearance an' health, as well as style.
