The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1920-11-25

An organizer Ct, was here yesterday
trying to get the farmers interested
in getting together to get better
price for their wheat. The meeting
was not very we'll attended because
it was not advertised. However, that
is neither here nor there. The main
thing to be considered is how to get
the farmers together without making
it a political organization. The non
partisan league started out to do
things for the farmer and gave prom
Use of being of much benefit to them,
but it was controlled by a gang of I'M
scrupulous socialist organizers who
wanted to turn the state into a new
Russia and the result has been that
instead of doing things for the farmer
they have built up big political ma
chine and have done the farmer. You
cannot get anywhere in politics. That
is if you want to organize for the
benefit Of the masses. The minute
you make political organization out
of the farmers movement just that
moment you have a divided institution.
There is no question but what the

real need to organize for themselves,
and if they will do this among them
selves instead of letting outsiders
come in and do it for them for politi-
cal and financial gain then a success
can be made of their efforts. But at
that it must not be a sort of spas
modic affair with little bunch here
and there but it must be united ac-
ton all over the United States. The
sugar trust can regulate its price for
sugar, we know what the fruit trust
is doing, and we know what the
butcher trust and the newspaper trust
and whole lot more trusts are doing
to US, but the farmer has no place in
which to lay his head. He must take
what they give him OF let it alone,
while on the other hand If that same
farmer goes to the butcher shop, the
clothier, the printer or the baker he
must pay what price they condescend
to ask Of him. There is nothing fair
about that. The farmer has Just as
great an opportunity to do things as
these other fellows If they stick to-
gether and cut out politics. This they

It has been nearly month since
election but we have not noticed any
telegram of congratulation being sent
from Mr.. Wilson to Mr.. Harding.
Come out of it, Woodrow, be sport
and send that telegram. Make it
unanimous. Mr.. Harding is not to
blame for the country giving you the
licking you got. 1t was your own
doing.

The Grant County Leader, a rabid
nonpartisan paper, after extolling the
virtues of Mr.. Lemke and the balance
of the administration board, says that
any person guilty of not letting them
put over the entire industrial program
as these fellows see it, are guilty of
treason and should be punished ac-
cordingly. We are afraid that if this
idea was carried out a majority of the
people of North Dakota would be
guilty of treason.

Ii he were an idiot, he would not have the soul to feel the emotion that he does when he pleads with Nedda that he has heart to feel. Instead of that, he is very smart as he shows when he does not carry out his revenge upon Nedda, but inhames Canio so that he secures his revenge for him. Does that sound like an idiot?'

Had Nervous
 Breakdown
But Health Restored to Texaa Lady, Who Is Now We'll and Strong, Able to Do All Her
 Housework and Moro

Rosebud, Texas. = Mrs. Annie Lange, of R. F. D. No. 4, this place, writes as follows regarding her expe- rience with Cardui: Some time ago ] had nervous breakdown of some kind. l was very, weak, and so nervous. It all seemed to come from trouble, for at I had fainting spells and suffered a great deal, but more ffom the weak, trembly, no-account feeling than any thing else. I knew needed tonic, and needed it badly.
 'I began the use of Cardui, to see if l couldn't get some strength, as knew of other cases that had been helped by its use. I felt better. l soon saw a great improvement, so kept it up.
 q used seven bottles of Cardui, and can say the money was well spent, for l grew well and strong. Now able to do all my homework and great deal of work besides"
 If you are rundown, weak, ner- vous and suffer from tho ailments pc culiar to women, 1t Is very likely that Cardui will help you, in the way il has helped thousands of others during the past 40 years.
 Take Cardui, the wcman's tonic.

i1 Rome, Madrid and one in South Amer ica."
 You would like to know my most diff fcult role? he repeated my question after me. You expect me to say Scar pia of course. Then I shall disappoint you because it is not for Falstaff is much more difficult You understand as I said before I always try to play the part I am essaying. If my purpose had been primarily to astound audiences with bursts of tone in my arias, I would not have been able to preserve my voice all these many years. I act the parts-I live them rather"
 There is a situation in Tosca' which explains what I mean" he continued" l. is almost impossible to play the part consistently just at that particular point 1t Is when Scarpia has reached a terrific height of passion in his de- sire for possession of Tosca, for just at the moment that he expects his hope to be realized, Tosca breaks in with her Vissi q Arte' Here the authors make it nearly impossible for the baritone to carry op the part logically and still re- ma in in the picture. Besides he must be careful not to take the attention away from the sopranos aria, and it all re- quires every subtlety of the actors art!
 Quite different sort of bad man from my 'Tosca' role is my Iago in 'Otello' Scarpia is bad on the surface he doesn't try to conceal it but Iago is the suave kind. always with a smile on his face and pretending that he is friend of Otello, such friend!'
 "I have said that Falstaff is perhaps the most difficult of my roles It is so necessary to keep the element of farce out of the character. That is. when they make game of the fat, old roue and keep telling him that he is gay cavalier, a Don Juan. he replies, fatuously: Yes, know that I am And to keep up the spirit of high comedy, I must have him receive this testing in utter complacency and seriousness. In The Secret of Su- game, also. one must keep the comedy from descending to farce, and l must make Count Gil always the Count!'
 As to whether he preferred to play comedy or serious. roles, MT. Scotti ob- served, Perhaps I enjoy playing com cry little more. Would I care to sing comedy in English? Certainly, if could find a good part. a character in which I could get results. If I could get the right sort of libretto I should have it made into an opera and present
 it with company of my own One or

lM AT ANY Birmingham. people have lWII spent the past few days in Att GVS lanta attending grand opera, kaa the Atlanta Journals says:
 At one of the most elaborate of the social occasions of Atlanta's gala week. the Piedmont Club entertained on Thursday evening at the second of it's opera dinner-dances.
 The ballroom and adjoining loggia bad been converted into a veritable garden of blossoms by the use of great poughs of dogwood and fragrant wild Azaleas, which were effectively placed high against the columns running the length of the ballroom, which lightly screened the orchestra loft, and which converted into a bower of bloom the Alcove at the east end of the room.
 The tables, arranged in hollow Square around the hall, held each a vase ef deep-shaded pink roses, candles which burned under rose shades and bonbons in harmonizing tints.
 The limited number of reservations fgreed upon by the management con- tripured largely to the comfort of the dancers and the Consequent enjoyment ef the occasion.
 < Several of the opera stars were pres knt asythe guests of the club, and many bf the most charming visitors in att tendance upon opera were central fig pres in the happy smaller gatherings which made up the whole affair.
 Miss Jean Gordon of the Metropolitan Opera Company, was an admired mem Der of the gay throng. Signor Antonio scotti was among those dinner guests D ho participated in the dancing.

BY DOLLY DAEaYMPL

two of my friends among the dramatists have told me that they would write such a story for me, and some day you may hear Scotti in his own opera buffa. How would that strike the public-interesting es ?"
 As MT. Scotti's conceptions of his roles are always individual he was queried as to his Metropolitan innovation of a sea son ago. when he sang the "Pagliaccf' Prologue in evening clothes, making quick change to Tonio's costume for the opening scene. 'I simply thought would try singing the Prologue as Scot ti,' he declared. You know. the artist who sings the Prologue doesn't represent his fellow artists the author or the play-he represents everything-as he announces, To sono il Prologo. The idea is carried down from the old Greek plays. Mascagni had a prologue to his opera, Le Maschere.' It was a spoken prologue and was delivered not by one of the singers, but by a specially en- gagged artist, leading actor. In the same spirit, I thought it would be in- teresting to sing Leoncavallo's Prologue without the clowns costume"
 "The word clown, by the way, is not a good expression for Tonic. In Italy there are many little companies of stroll ing players like these in 'Pagliacci' and
 r each company there is one player who, to amuse the children in the streets, goes
