following:
First, that the findings of the gov

ings on admissability OF evidence also

COX STRADDLES
MAIN ISSU E OF

Senator New Says That He
Leaves Unanswered Criti-
cisms on Article 10

Chicago, Aug. 9.-Senator Harry
s. New of Indiana, chairman OF the
Republican campaign speakers com
mittee and member of the senate for,
eign relations committee. in a signed
statement declared that Governor Cox
in his speech of acceptance Saturday
devoted three columns to the league
of nations, but had straddled the real
league ISSUE 90.
"Governor Cox is in the position
of holding fast to President Wilson
with one hand and, reaching for the
public with the other said the
statement. "He leave entirely unan'
swered in his speech the main issue
of the league-Article X-and no one
knows how he stands on it except by
interpreting his statement made after
the conference with President Will
son as meaning that he favors it.
"Governor Cox must come out
cleanly in this campaign and say
whether he favors Article X and
whether he favors sending American
troops abroad. for his speech OF ac-
ceptance is very unsatisfactory on
that point"

SUNDAY DANCE
DRAWS IRE OF
MINISTER HERE
Rev. Boyd of jamestown Tells
Audience That He Was Kept
Awake by Music
ROOF GARDEN MU SIC

Surprise that dancing in the early
Sunday morning hours is permitted
in Bismarck was expressed by Rev.
w. F. Boyd of jamestown, who oc-
cupied the pulpit at the First Pres
byterian church here Sunday morn
ing. -. :. T.. -,
a midnight train. He remarked that
he went to hotel and was kept
awake for three hours by dance mu-
sic. He declared it was a desecration
of the Sabbath as much as dancing
during any other hours Of the day.
Though Rev: Boyd did not mention
any specific place, it is presumed that
he referred to the Mckenzie hotel
roof garden, where dancing to jazz
music continued until the early Sun
day morning hours. There was no
other dance in Bismarck Sunday
morning, it is said.
Rev. Boyd's remarks came during
sermon in which he talked of the
cost of being a Christian and the
cost of being a sinner, telling the
path one must choose to become
either. - '5-
States Attorney Ed Allen, when
asked concerning the matter, said
that no complaint had been made
to him. He lives in the hotel, he said,
and went to bed early, not being both
cred by the music.
., Awaits Complaint
Asked if the state law specifically
prohibited dancing on Sunday, Mr..
Allen said that he didn't know. He
said he'd probably look it up.
Il won't take any action unless
a formal complaint is made to me,
and then, of course, I'll have to-"
said the states attorney. ~ am not
sure. lust what the provision of the
statute is-I'll probably look it up
as a result of this conversation"
No License Fee
There might be some question Of
whether or not the Mex Kenzie place
would come under the provision of
any law regarding dance halls, he
said. According to Mr.. Allen, the
Mckenzie never has been reqdred by
the state to take out dance hall
license in connection with its dinner
dances. Just why this place is ex-
empted, has not been stated.
Two weeks ago the dance place
known as Elm Grove, south of the
city, was warned to close at midnight
sharp.

Three Thousand Dollars Put Up

Especial to the Tribune).

WillistOn, N. D., Aug. 9.-Raising
money for educational purposes" Is
the method being used in this district
to pile up big campaign fund for
the Aonpartisan league in the fall
campaign, it was revealed here to-
day.
The Consumers stores are being u.s.
ed in the plan, according to informa-
ton divulged here today. The process
is described by one man as worthy
of a captain of high finances and
less painful in the immediate effect
than the strong arm methods used in
collecting 81 membership dues"
Not being satisfied with renewals
in memberships in the Ray district,
league organizers are said to have
laid down the law to local league
men, declaring that more money mus,
be raised. a.-,
., Stock is Raised
So, the stock of the local consum-
ers stores was raised and farmers
were prevailed upon to sign notes in
denominations of $100 or less. Money
raised will be used to buy new goods
for the consumers story in Ray, but
as soon as the newly purchased goods
are sold the proceeds, less 10 per
cent which the store is entitled to
under the original contract, will be
turned over to the political managers
os the league for educational pur.
poses," meaning the fall campaign in
North Dakota, Minnesota and other
states.
Crops have been poor in the Ray
district ard tleerdSEe. some. of lthe
farmers who signed notes did mol
have the necessary credit in the
banks to make their paper accept
able as collateral in the bank. The
face value of the usual notes amount
ed to $4,000.
No Post-Dated Checks
In order to get the cash-Townlay
and Lemke agents do not seem to
want post-dated checks this year
the league agents arranged with some
OF the more we'll to do league en-
thusiasts to take over the smaller
notes for $500 a piece, which were
honored at local bank.
When the stock bought with this
money is disposed of, the league will
have practically all the proceeds and
the "original investors" will have
their notes back-and that's all. This,
at any rate, is the plan as understood
BY Ray people who are closely IN
touch with the activities of Lemke s
agents. p,-
No objection is raised by the con-
sumers store directors it is SAID.
William Lemke is at present the con-
trolling factor in the stores company
and Lenke also is candidate Tor
Attorney-General and the chief dis
penser of Nonpartisan plums in the
state.
