Oklahoma City, July S.-The plan
of Prince Freeing, state attor-
ney general, to order the sheriff
OF Woods cunty to execute the
mandate of the criminal court OF
appeals and force Martin M. Fulk-
erson, pardoned by acting COVER
nor Tom G. Waldrep, to begin
serving a term of seven years for
embezzlement, could not be car
ried out today, as Mr.. Freezing
learned Fulkerson left the state
as soon ss his pardon, attested
by the secretary Of state, was
handed to him Tuesday morning.
Forced to abandon his plan, the
attorney general at once switched
his tactics in his attack on the
validity of the Fulkerson pardon.
He said he has learned where
Fulkerson went and will take
early action to obtain his return.
The chief difficulty to overcome
now is the necessity of requisi-
tion bearing in the Fulkerson case
in u neighborlng state, it was
said at the attorney generals Of
flee. Fulkerson has in his possess
sion a pardon duly signed and at
tested with the impression of the
great seal Of the state. 1t was
said the case is so technical con-
siderable difficulty may be found
in fighting 1t out before another
governor or in courts not familiar
with the situation.
Scores Of kilograms have reached
the attorney general demanding
that the Fulkerson pardon be re-
voked and he be forced to serve
his sentence.

intimidation and coercion, and puts
into the hands of a political machine
a more potent weapon for the enslave-
ment of the citizens of a state than
has existed anywhere in the United
States at any period of its history.
$50 bitterly did the minority fight
these Objectionable laws that none of
them was able to get through with
the emergency clause which would
have put them into immediate
effect; but the majority passed a bill
declaring them all emergency laws
and putting them into operation ten
days after adjournment instead of Ju-
ly 1, 1920, as provided for by the state
constitution where the emergency
clause fails to carry.
Referendum petitions against this
attempt to nullify the constitution have
been filed in sufficient number to
suspend this aforementioned act, and
an effort will be made later to refer
some of these laws to a vote of the
people. In the meantime it will be
well for every voter to consider care
fully this absent voters law and what
it's final adoption may mean for our
state. If thoroughly understood, there
is no question of it's ultimate defeat"

OFFICERS MAKE SUCCESSFUL
RAID ON GAMBLING DEN

About a score of Malta's men were
caught Thursday morning in a drag
net which County Attorney Gabriel
spread owe the city, and at the pres
ent time there have been "a complaints
filed.
The spectacular part of it was not
witnessed by any except the parti-
cipants as it took place about l o'clock
in the morning when the thermometer
stood several degrees below zero and
a heavy snow was falling.
A raid was made on a gambling den
in the rear of a shoe shop on Fifth
avenue, Undersheriff Wolfe, Justice
RAIDER, Attorney Gabriel and a secret
service man participated in the raid
from the outside, while another detec-
inside.
The room vas small, with no Win
dows, and a five panel door which was
locked. AS a result of the strength
of the door the county attorney is
nursing a black eye received when he
rammed the door with his shoulder
and a crushed thumb received when
using a crock to smash in the panels
of the door.
They found many men in the room
and caught the leader with a handful
of bills, some of which bore the initials
of the county attorney, and which had
been spent in the game and for whis-
key. They obtained several bottles of
whiskey, considerable money, cards,
chips, and other gambling parapher-
MALTA. The officers found that the
whiskey was sold at the price of $12
per quart.
For more than sixty days the
ty attorney had been trying to get
secret service men, but the scarcity of
men qualified to do the work delayed
the raid until this time. The men
began work on Friday, December 5th.

THE CRIME OF INNOCENCE.

The g~ailibility of a certain class Of
peopleGn North Dakota has permit,
ted the Townley organization to re.
tardS the industrial, social and educa.
tionar development of that state to q
degree that cannot be estimated nol
measured. The future alone can re
veal the immense amount of harm
that has been done by this band of
INSCRIPTIONS political tricksters whose
one ambition seems to be the creation
of black misery and chaos.
While the ship of state is being
guided through dangerous waters by
Nonpartisan pilots drunk with power,
a large class of real American citi-
zen is suffering for the crime of in
nocence. The stigma and shame which
have been linked with the name of
their state are theirs to bear. Having
had no hand in the pillage Of the
treasury, the scattering abroad of red
flag socialistic propaganda and the
wanton numbering of a states self
respect, these people are made to
share in the misery, to bear the cross
and wear the wreath of thorns.

false god with a cloven hoof!

CALLS JURY OF BYSTANDERS

vi
Judge George M. Bourquin, for the
first time since the U. S. court opened
its sessions in Great Falls this year,
Monday afternoon was forced to call
a bystander's jury of 10 men. A num-
Der of jurors have been excused from
the panel lately and Monday afternoon
when the court opened to try the case
of Xavier Servel VS.. Jameson and
Murray, the jurors sitting or the pre-
ceding case of Fred Tintinger Monday

NORTH DAKOTA LEGISLATION.

A great deal has been said of the
more or less vicious legislation for
ced upon the people of North Da-
kota by the late special session of
the Townley controlled legislature. To
give an analysis of the numerous
wonders worked by that magic body
would fill enough good sized volumes
to make the famous five-foot book
shelf loom up like a black shrowd in
India ink. However, there is one re-
cent enactment that so flagrantly vi
olates the traditions of Americanism
that it is worthy of mention.
The Williston Herald, the largest
weekly newspaper in North Dakota,
analizes the situation quite thorough
ly. In speaking of the absent voters
law in particular, it has this to say:
Undoubtedly the most vicious of
the entire lot is the absent voters act,
which provides that any person resid-
ing more than half a mile from the
polling place may use the absent vot-
efS DdllOt ana Inat ne may permit
any person to aid him in marking
the ballot.
"We have not seen the complete law,
but the outline above given is suffi-
cient to show the possibilities for po-
litical corruption under the practical
workings of the measure and to en-
able us to figure out the reasons for
its adoption.
cit is we'll known that the Town
ley organization reaches practically
every voting precinct in the state and
that every voter is within reach of
some Townley organizer or local
trusty just prior to any election at
which measures of interest to the
league are being considered. Under
this law such workers can make a
house to house canvass, bring to the
Individual voter a ballot, persuade him
to have it marked a certain way and
then turn it over to the county audi
tor to be counted at the proper time.
eve believe it will be easily seen
that this law destroys the present

away with the secrecy of the ballot
