Black-Draught," continues the Okla

reliable. I sure use it for the liver,
stomach, constipation. Indigestion, and

from the liver, and if taken In time

JOLLY PRISONERS
Off FOR FRANKFORT
Quintet Safely Landed at State
Prison After Having Been
Convicted in Local Court

There was party of eight, q quin-
tet of recently convicted men in the
Madison county circuit court, and
three prisoners, left Thursday for
Frankfort, where\ the prisoners will
serve from one to 10 years for var
ious crimes committed in this county.
The list follows:
Jonh Keeton, convicted and scnten-
ced to term of 2 years in prison for
the killing of Ben Powell, at the car
nival grounds some time ago.
Stanley Rogers, charged with steal
ing chickens, convicted during the
May term of court and held pending
further investigation of the case after
his trial during the summer.
Steve Stevens, charged End con-
victed on two charges, one having
been read to him after hearing the
testimony in one of the cases. He
received, according to the docket, one
year for each offense. however, will
be returned here at the expiration of
the first term, and it is believed, will
be dismissed, should his behavior JUS
tify it, without further prosecution.
Friends of the young man have inter
coded in his behalf and are of the be-
lief that he will be able to escape the
second sentence.
Thomas Gentry, co1ored, convicted
of the murder of Dave Campbell, also
colored, will serve 10 years in prison.
The murder is said to have been pre-
meditated and took place at the L. G
N. crossing, some time ago, when the
two men met.
Walter Williams, colored, clever
with the pen and careless in issuing
forged checks, was also sent along.
Williams and Gentry seemed the least
concerned of the list of prisoners.
Keeton was anxious to get started on
his sentence, he said. 1t is believed
this man will not lose any time as a
result of not being a model prisoner.
He said he wanted to go to work,
for he was used to it, and would give
good account of himself.
The officers in charge are Sheriff
P. S .Whitloek, Deputy Sheriff SAINT
Bush and George holland. They re-
ported the prisoners We're will be-
haved and declared the "bunch'' was
tn elivcliest they had had to conduct
with for years. The trip was made
without incident, and-the men pro-
oeriy turned over the state prison au-
thorities.

FAIR CORN PRICE z
To. BE MAINTAINED

While there is a decrease in the
price of corn in various other coun-
ties, the Madison county price is still
So per barrel, and it is not believed
it will drop far below that. A num-
Der of producers stated, upon being
asked regarding the decline in the
price of the product in other counties
stated they would hold their corn be-
fore disposing of it much below the
SIS mark, since that would be below
the price of production, and they
would not realize anything for their
work. but would lose. on the transac-
ton.
In Jessamine county there is a rec
ord-breaking corn crop, and it is re-
ported as being sold for $3.50 to
81. so per barrel. These prices have
not been reached here, nor will they
according to the producers. The quail
ity of the corn here this year is just
about the best ever. "TheFe are NO
nubtins for the cows" said one of
them in discussing che quality of the
corn. He said that thin ground that
was not usually adapted to corn rails

Effect Of lie Initiated Laws
on Bank Of North Dakota

organization formed to put it in op-
eration have never proposed to place
1t into operation excepting in one
way and that way is: BY the con-
sent of a majority OF the people, by
the exercise of the constitutional
rights OF American citizens.
+ Let no hater of progress or of
efficient progressive leadership de-
ceiye themselves into believing that
the l. V. A. have strengthened their
position by passing, thru their
ability to .mislead and misrepresent
some initiated measures, aimed to
handicap state officials and depart
lnent heads in carrying forward the
league program, for already tile
anti-league publications are realizing
that the Bank of North Dakota can
not be destroyed by depriving it Of
some of the public funds but that
the necessity of calling them in
from banks in which they had been
deposited by the Bank of North Da-
kota, to be in a position to comply
with the law initiated and passed
by the I. V. A. with the active help
OF the N. D. Bankers Association is
causing serious Inconvenience TO
so;le of these same bankers.

are advising custodians of public
funds to $50 slow" in withdrawing
funds from the Bank of North Da-
kota. )

cey sary for the Bank of North Da-
koja to establish more direct bank

Rank and at the same time give
the people facilities for using their
credit not dominated by the bankers
trust. ~
! The law creating the Bank Of
North Dakota, provides for its ac-

Fargo CourieP-News Agrees
With Grand Forks Herald

Fargo CourierNews: 1t is some
thing Wv for The Courier-News to
find itself in agreement with Jerry
Bacon of the Grand Forks Herald.
But since election the Grand Forks
editor seems to have had a new con-
ception of conditions here in North
Dakota. We have already called
attention to his warming to public
treasurers to go SLOW in Withdraw
ing funds from the Bank of North
Dakota. He has also just warned
against efforts to inject rancor and
bitterness into the state legislature.
In this connection he has some
thing to say that every business man
opposed to the Nonpartisan League
should ponder:
Whatever obligations the state
has assumed must be carried out
faithfully. Whatever were the
purposes which inspired the en-
actment of the mill and elevator
law, the Bank of North Dakota
law, the rural credits law. the
home building law, the insurance,
compensation a4ld many other
laws, these laws are accomplish
ed facts, and not one OF them
must be approached in a dcstrucS
tive spirit Notifications, con-
ceived in a temperate spirit, and
restrictions intended to prevent
wild and unsafe expansion in ad-
vance Of adequate experience and
information, may be necessary.
But the assembly must be pre-
pared to- provide sufficient funds
for the proper carrying on Of all
its departments on a scale suffi-
GENTLY large to demonstrate con-
clusivcly the wisdom or unwisdom
of further expansion along that
particular line.
Mr.. Bacon has been such bitter
opponent of the Nonpartisan League
and its program in years past thar
we trust he will pardon us if we
seem somewhat incredulous upon
reading these words in his own pa
per. Yet II Mr.. Bacon means what
these words say. and if any large
proportion of the ]. ": "A. legislat toas
appear at Bismarck imbued with The.
same spirit, then 1t can confidently
be predicted that the end of North
!. .Dakota's partisan warfare is in
sight. q
@ All that the organized farmers OF
this state have ever contended for
/ is what Mr.. Bacon now processes
himself willing to grant namely,
The Bowbells tribune., 1920-11-19

the right to give fair trial to the
state industrial program for which
they have voted, by overwhelming
majorities. or after year. They
do not know for certain that this
program will bring them relief.
They strongly believe it will. They
are quite convinced that it cannot
be worse than the present banker
gambler marketing system. And
they are determined to give the new
plan trial 1t is for this-their
constitutional right-that they have
been fighting all these years.
No Nonpartisan Lacquer would
for a moment contend that no mis-
takes have been made in the League
program. No legislation that was
ever enacted was perfect. Only ex-
perience can gradually correct all
errors. And any new movement
must develop it's own leaders, and
this always requires the wedding
out of misfits and crooks.
But the farmers of North Dakota
earnestly believe that. whatever un-
important errors may have been
made in carrying their program into
effect and whatever mistakes may
have been made in selecting officials,
the heart OF the program is sound.
They are the more convinced of this
in that the opposition itself has for
the most part professed to accept
the program. 80
But. Mr.. Bacon is the first leader
Of the opposition actually to advise,
in specific terms, the carrying out
of the program in order to give it
a fair trial. This is the first DEM
onstratiop from the opposition Of
desire to cooperate for the good of
North Dakota. And, we repeat, if
Mr.. Bacon is sincere, and speaks
for any appreciable number of his
friends. then it will be possible for
North Dakota farmers and business
men to get their heads together this
winter on a program that will be
tremendously beneficial for all.
And, we repeat from previous edt-
torials. unless business men and
farmers do get together, in the face
of the ominous clouds that are form
ing on the eastern industrial hori-
zon, and of the bare-faced robbery
OF the farmers by the gamblers and
hsr bankers, North Dakota will suf-5
fer one Of the worst financial
crashes in its history, in which busi-
ness me-. will suffer: far worse even
than farmers. s. s5s #

The Flaxton Times in front
page article in its issue Of Nov. IL
analizes the election returns ana
appears to gather comfort from the
analysis. It lists the achievements
of the I. V. A. in passing the ini-
tiated measures, electing three or
four state officials, claims. the l. v.
A. control the legislature, comedies
the election Of the governor, Indus
trial commission and other import
ant state officers and the control of
the senate by the Nonpartlsan
League, and arrives at the conclu-
sion that "Townleyism" is tumbl--
ing.
How the writer of this article
construes these; results as evidence
Of weakness of the N. P. l.. forces is
hard to discern. The League has
elected all three members of the In
dustrial Commission. After jan
uarv 1st the Industrial Commission
will not have to work under the
handicap of an utterly unfriendly
and incompetent attorney general.
The. I. v. A. control no state office
that they did not control before
eleation with the exception Of state
treasurer, and they lost the attor-
ney general and state auditor. They
gained in the house of representa-
tives and so can prevent the fur
ther enactment of Townleyism into
law. =
The l. V. A. have no legislative
program so it is hard to understand
just where the victory lies in con-
troll Of the house by the /. V. A..
The League legislative program is
enacted into law and so far as
Townleyism is concerned no further
legislation is needed. ...--.
1t is the policy of the League to
amend the laws placing the League
program into operation, as eXper-
ience dictates and in view of the
fact that I. ": A. candidates have
always run upon a platform of
promises to carry on the industrial
program that the League has al
ready enacted into law it ought not
to be impossible to make necessary
amendments to industrial program
