ed by large majorities. men endorsed
by the league in Wisconsin and North
Dakota were elected Governor and in
North Dakota the first Nonpartisah
league U. S. senator was elected.

the national house of representatives
4 to G." Morris continued. although
beaten for state offices in Minnesota
we Just about maintained our minor
ity strength in the Minnesota and
Wisconsin legislatures and retained
control in North Dakota. On the
whole we feel that the league has
made wonderful progress in two

night that he had no statement to
make regarding successes or defeats
of league candidates in various states

AFFIDAVITS PRES ENTED

Judge w. L. Nuessle, of district
court, has under consideration today
a petition by the attorney generals s
office to revoke the suspended SEN
tence of lsham Halk on the ground
that he has violated the terms Of sus-
pension by the, sale of liquor. Hall
was sentenced to serve four months
in Jail and fined 5000 and costs, plead
ing guilty on January Is, 1917. on a
charge Of maintaining a, place where
intoxicating liquors were sold. The
sentence was suspended on payment
of the fine and costs.
The evidence for the state in the
case was presented by Albert e.
Sheets, Jr., assistant attorney general,
the evidence being gathered by F. l..
Watkins, enforcement officer. -,
Theodore Koffel appeared ps attor-
ney for Hall. The original case
against Hall was brought by F. E. Nc
{ Curdy, states attorney. The present
statess attorney. Ed Allen, did not
present the evidence in the present
matter. Hall was very active around
the polls Of the Northwest and 500
hotels on election day.
After the petition for revocation of
the sentence was filed, Judge Nuessle
issued an order to show cause. The
matter was continued on plef of Hall
that a material witness for him was
absent.
Four AffidavitS
Four affidavits were presented by
the state to the effect that Hall had
made sales. One of them was made
by Wilbur Lukens. who testified that
on August Is last he bought pine of
home brew from Watkins for IS. Kof-
fel contended this statement was not
consistent in that the witness admitted
that he could have bought all he wish
ed for S. quart.
Mr.. Koffel, on behalf of Hall, de
MED the entire charges, claiming that
all the affidavits except the Lukens
affidavit were old ones which jurles
had refused to accept. He said that
Hall was out of town on August 20.

LEAGUE WRECK
IS DISCUSSED
THROUGH WEST
North Dakota Called Only '"Sal-
wage" in Townleyism
Defeat

"Only in one state where it has held
control does there appear to be any
salvage in the wreck Of this radical
movement, and even there the curtail-
ment is so serious as to render almost
impotent some of the Townley con-
trolled officers" says the MinneapO-
lis Tribune, in commenting on the re-
suit of elections in states where the
Nonpartisans made a fight. The "sal-
vago" referred to is in North Dakota.
Following is a summary OF the cleo
ton results in which the Nonpartisan
league figured in other states, except
ing Minnesota where La Toilette
triumphed and the league endorsed
his candidates:
Minnesota-Every candidate for
state office and congress backed by
league goes down to ov-
erwhelming defeat. Good roads amend
ment, bitterly fought by Townley, car
ried by large majority.
MOntana-DemOcrats join with Re-
publicans in defeating Townley candi-
dates who ran on Democratic ticket.
Joseph NJ. Dixon of Great Falls elect
ed governor over B. X. Wheeler, DEM
ocratic and Townley candidate. League
has Legislative offices in only five
counties.
Idaho-Not single candidate carry
ing Townley Endorsement is elected to
office.
Colorado-Although Nonpartisans
captured control of Democratic party
and had high hopes of success, Re-
publicans and anti-Townley ticket
swept into power.
South Dakota-In this state Nom
partisan league had candidates on
third ticket. League candidates All
defeated in miserable showing.
Nebraska-No candidates with
Townley Endorsement elected.

Harding and his party, now placed
ut IS persons.
On Board Harding's Special Train.
Nov. S.-Coming to Texas for yaca-
tion after the trying requirements Of
his campaign, President-elect Harding
declared today that he was determined
to put the thoughts OF his coming re-
sponsibilities ouGot his mind for the
next two weeks. From the time OF his
arrival at Point Isabel, remote vii
lage on the southern Texas coast, he
was ready to plunge unreservedly in
to the swing Of a real vacation. A
mornings fishing expedition and an
afternoon on the golf links were to
constitute his routine-virtually every
day of his visit. -
The fact that Point Isabel lies only
six miles from the Mexican border has
given rise to many whisperngs OF pos
sible conferences between the new
President-elect and representatives OF
the new regime in Mexico but those
closest to Mr.. Harding were inclined
to throw cold water on such reports.
Mr.. Harding said himself today no
such conferences were Gin prospect"
and he had heard them expressed only
in newspaper speculations.
- - Position Delicate g..
! The same attitude was taken by the
toward published sug-
gestions that he might begin before
his inaugurations information CONVEX
sations with European governments
regarding the formation of an associa-
ton of nations. .. :.
The delicacy Of; NJ, ,Hardings posi-
ton in that regard tiad been pointed
out more than once by those closely
associated with him. Elected to the
presidency by an overwhelming major
ity after promising changes in the ma
tion's foreign policy he is naturally
expected to begin formulation OF his
policy.
Yet by provision Of American law,
unique among the greater powers OF
the world, he remains private citizen
for four months.

IS FARM PRODUCING
FOODS FOR FAMILY?
One of important Factors Deter.
mining Amount of Income.
Garden and Live Stock Are Usually
Cared for at Times That Do Not
Materially Interfere With
Regular Farm Work.

Is the farm producing such of the
family foods as are adapted to local
conditions in ample quantities for the
welfare of the family?
The value of the family living fur
nished directly from the farm is one of
the important factors determining the
amount of the income of the farm and
the degree TO which the farm business
is safe and profitable, says the United
State department of agriculture. This
is especially true of the smaller farms.
The garden and live stock which
supply the larger part of the family
food are usually cared for at times
that interfere comparatively little with
the regular farm commercial enter
prises, and by labor which otherwise
would not be utilized. Further, it has
been found that, up to a considerable
size of farm business, when the fam
lily food is produced on the farm, this
item, plus the fuel ard shelter fur
niShed by the farm, amount to an
equivalent of the rent for the entire
farm or interest on the V&Te farm
investment.

can besso "sour" that even alsike will
not grow. In such a case there is
nothing for it but to lime or to quit
clover.
On land that has lime but is other
wise poor and lacks organic matter,
try sweet clover 1t is no use sowing
this on "sour" soil. 1t won't thrive.
But with lime it is about the best
clover for poor land. 1t will add or
ganic matter and nitrogen and leave
such a soil in better shape for the
following crops. Sweet clover seed is
cheaper than red and in many cases
a farmer could profitably substitute
sweet clover for red in the rotation.
The questions involved in the inn
pOrtance of clover and methods OF
getting a stand, use of lime, and
sweet clover are only touched on here.
Any state experiment station or the
United States department of agricul-
ture will send bulletins or additional
information on request.

ARMY REORGANIZATION
PLAN is ATTACKED;
IS CALLED "MILlTARISM"
Would Build UP Military System
Equal To That Existing In Any

Washington.-The army reorganiza-

that would build up a military sys-
tenn equal to any that ever existed in
any country at any time" by Senator
Mcclellan, Democrat, Of Tennessee,
during consideration of the legislation
in the senate.
The Tennessee senator's criticism
was directed principally at provision
OF the bill for a large general staff,
tine creation of the office of under
secretary of war and for the organi-
cation Of war council to consider
policies affecting military and NUM-
ton problems. Senator Mcclellan in
dictated his opposition to universal
military training but reserved his at
tack upon it until the general fight
on the plan is brought to the senate
floor.
Senator Wadsworth, Republican, of
New York, in charge of the bill, and
Senator Frelinghuysen, Republican, Of

French Troops Occupy Cities More
Than Hundred Miles From
Ruhr Troubles

London. - French occupation Of
Frankfort and other German cities, to-
gether with civil conditions in the
Ruhr district, is being considered by
the counsel of ambassadors at Paris,
it is learned here.
1t is declared at the foreign office
that the British are not fully decided
as to what course TO follow, because
OF conflicting reports, but are inclin'
ed to give Germany benefit of doubt
thus far.
France Notified Of Attitude
A dispatch from Coblenz says that
it is learned at the office of Pierpont
3. Noyes, American Rhineland COM
missioner, and representative of the
state department in the American oc-
cupied area, that several days ago
Mr. Noyes formally ASSOCIATED him
self from any action the high commits
sion might take involving it directly
CT indirectly in possible French
advance into unoccupied territory. It
is also stated at the office that Mr..
Noyes has notified Washington of his
action.
Germans Shell French Patrol
A dispatch from Mayence says the
only incident in connection with the
occupation of North Frankfort by the
French consisted of a few shots fired.
According TO reports by aviators, Ger
men gun detachments fired two or
three shells on a French cavalry pa
reichswehr and the security police
were retiring. The latter, although
knowing that occupation had been de-
cided on, refused to believe it would
be carried out, one OF the officers
saying that the British would not let
the French come in.
Al DaTmstadt, the reception Of the
French troops was almost cordial, and
the population at Frankfort was in
c.iled to be friendly to the French.
Allied Capitals ApprehensiVe
London.-Greatest apprehension pre-
vailed mere in official and diplomatic
circles as to the eventualities involved
IN the German invasion of the Ruhr
district and the subsequent French
retaliatory measure OF occupying sew
eral points in the Frankfort region.
While admitting that the Germans
technically have violated the peace
treaty, British government officials
were inclined to regard Frances head
strong, i'll considered one-handed
game"
England, Italy and the United States,
il is learned, will not acquiesce in
the French coup, which comes as an
unexpected jolt.
