 The banks explain that this is the reason why persons holding the tenn porary bonds found themselves with no means of collecting inreres, on September b. when 1t was due.
 The letter to the banks also calls attention that the same situation ex, ists with respect to temporary bonds of The first and second Liberty loans. many Of these not Vet being exchang- ed.

thority to declare war on congress.
In July he would have it thoroughly
understood that the sole purpose of
the league 10 to prevent war. Yet
the treaty, which in January he in
sisted should be ratified without
amendment, would have bound us in q
political union with the whole world,
not alone &c prevent wars. but to
regulate commerce regulate labor
conditions the world over. would place
the strong nations of the world as
mandatories over the weak, and would
vest the authority to regulate these
things in the hands of an information
al council. If these amendments are
necessary now they were necessary
last January. If the declaration of
war should require the act Of congress
it is just as essential that congress
should determine the terms of peace.
The conflicting positions taken by Mr.,
Cox on the question are inconsistent,
but he Is exercising shrewd politics,
as he can thus satisfy any criticism
by quoting from soma one of his de-
clarations.

The Non Partisan League seems to
be losing out in North Dakota, the
home of the fad, and where it has
heretofore been in complete control.
In the primaries recently held the
candidates on the republican ticket
were about evenly divided between
the Non Partisan League and the anti
League candidates, with probability
that the Republicans and Democrats
will unite in opposition to the League
candidates that won out. Gov. Fra
zier won out for denomination, but J.
H. Baer, the League congressman,
was defested. and the republican can.
didate for secretary Of state defeated
the League candidate. Three League
laws that were referended were de.
feated, and law prohibiting the dis
play of the red flag. which was op-
posed by the League. wan approved
by the voters. When North Dakota
repudiates the League there is little
danger of it's success anywhere else.

The general harvest in thi section
will be on in week or ten days.
Some of the farmers are cutting their
rye this week. and early oats are be-
ginning to turn. Marquis wheat ~il!
also be fiji to cut by the latter part of
next week. The general report is
that the grain is filling we'll. A few
report signs of black rust, but it does
not seem to be general The wet
season has caused considerable short
age in the low places. but the high
and rolling land will produce good
yield. Barring the possibility of
black rust the quality will be good.
Corn on the uplands is looking fine
and much of it is tasseling out, but
the season has been unfavorable for
corn on the flat and low land, consid.
cradle of it having been drowned out
The next two months can do wonders
for the corn, and With favorable
weather the backward fields may yet
make fair yield.
