sPLENIp CROPS THROUGH WEST
Enjoy Visits, With Several Former
Oakes People

Dear Times: . 80.
We left Pony, Montana, after eight
days of the finest kind Of time with
the Jacksons. There were fishing,
picnics and parties. The Jacksons
just laid aside everything and had a
vacation too.
Lest Sunday we spent with the 4.
E. Ogden family, who live on the
Madison river eight miles from Nor
ris on the Bozeman road. Mr.. Ogden
ran the North Star lumber yard at
Kuhn for ten years, and at one time
was offered the Oakes yard, but did
not want to supplant his friend, L. E.
Stanton. Instead he came to Montana
and now has 400 acres away up in
the mountains. He and his family
lead free, easy life and seem to be
contented. Mr.. Ogden is son Of the
late John Ogden, former state super
intendent Of public instruction of
North Dakota, and his wife was Matte
Kenagy, well known family Of Nc
Intosh and western Dickey counties.
Mrs. Ruth Philpot is daughter of Hal
lie Kenagy, formerly Of Glendale,
now Of Butte.
A day spent at the power plant Of
the Montana Power company near
Norris was one Of the interesting side
trips. Here this power company has
put in a dam on a narrow canyon
through which the Madison river runs,
and has made fine lake of water.
This is the secondary dam on this riv.
er, the upper basin said to be much
larger. The electricity generated
from harnessing this river supplies
light and power to the cities of south
central Montana. Still larger plant
at Great Falls, owned by the same
company, supplies the cities to the
north and connects with their lines
to the south, making one Of the cheap
est and best electric systems of the
country.
Tons Of fish are being taken from
the Madison dam, and we enjoyed a
few hours Of good fishing here. On
Thursday we left Pony and that day
pulled through Butte, spending the
night in Anaconda. A visit to this
city would be incomplete without q
trip through the big smelter. Permits
were secured at the entrance, and we
went through this wonderful institu.

BERLIN GOES DOWN TO DEFEAT
Oakes "Misfits" Administer Drubbing
to Visitors in Sunday Game

The Berlin base ball team came over
to Oakes last Sunday prepared to
give the local busters a trimming, but
something got into the carburetor and
gummed up the ignition. Christie was
in the box for Oakes and while he did
not perform up to his usual standard,
the brand of twisters he shot over the
plate was good enough to bring home
the bacon. When the atmosphere
cleared, the score board showed to
1 score in favor Of the locals. The
visitors were handed series of eight
goose eggs in succession, but man.
aged to slip one run over in the ninth
inning, one Of the Berliners slamming
a fly to deep right for a home run.
The runner should have been held at
third, but the ball got lost in the long
grass.
The Berlin boys seemed TO think
they had the best team and that Oakes
won on a fluke. Accordingly they
challenged US to a game next Sunday
for a 500 side bet, the contest to be
pulled off at LaMoure. This was TAX
Ell up so quickly by Manager Roberts
that it dampened the visitors ardor
somewhat and the latest reports were
to the effect that the game would be
played, minus the side bet. It seems
that the LaMoure diamond isn't avail.
able, so the Fullerton grounds have
been secured.
A large crowd will be on hand to
cheer their favorites.

Operators Plan to Furnish Coal


No coal shortage for next winter
need be feared if the present plans Of
bituminous coal operators and rail-
road executives backed by the inter-
state commerce commission, are made
effective, the National Coal associa-
tion declared in a statement this week.
It was added that cooperation by the
miners, if not forthcoming, would en-
danger the whole program, which is
based upon a priority car supply for
mines and upon priority in transport
alton for coal bound to the northwest
and New England.
There is real need for action, the
statement asserted. Statistics furn-
ished by the Geological survey were
said to show that if the present rate
Of output was maintained until next
April the aggregate production would
be SIG, ,720, 900 tons, which the asso-
citation estimates would be less than
the country requires by 30,000,000
tons. It was estimated the production
is now 35,000,000 tons behind the
schedule which should be maintained
to supply all needs next winter.

ORGANIZE LEAGUE OPPOSITION
Republicans and Democrats to Join

1t has been the hope Of a great many
league opponents, some Of whom have
worked together in the Independent
Voters association and many Of them
outside, to bring about a condition
that would make it possible for the
anti -Townley forces to unite all their
votes on one state ticket and on one
legislative ticket in each district.
This has finally been accomplished
through the medium Of the committee
Of twenty-one, composed Of seven
members Of the anti -Townley republi-
can and democratic state central COM
mittees and the I. v. A. committees
which will attend to the work and
financing Of the fall campaign.
The following ticket will be support

WILSON TO RESIGN
ASPARTY LEADER
Letter Will Soon Be Issued Turning
Over Reins to Presidential
Nominee
TAMMANY FACTION ALARMED
Cox to Be Left Free to Work Out
Own Plans ~.

President Wilson is about ready to
abdicate as the leader Of democracy
in favor Of Governor ]. NJ. Cox.
A letter carrying this word to the
world will shortly come out Of the
White House.
This was the report in New York
political circles Tuesday.
The anticipated action Of the presi-
dent is the result Of the chagrin that
has spread through the anti-Wilson
democratic camps, such as Tammany,
over the White House conference be-
tween the president and Governor Cox
where the democratic candidate as
sumed the burden Of the Wilson for
eign policy.
Tammany was dismayed to find that
the candidate to whom it threw its
own support on the theory that Cox
was anti-administration, has gone ov-
er with such complete accord" to
the Wilson leadership.
Tammany under Charles F. Murphy
was out to beat the president, equally
determined to have no one Of the pres
ident's choosing picked as the San
Francisco nominee.
Governor Cox was indorsed with
enthusiasm after he had made the
announcement that he would not take
second place on the ticket with Nc
Adoo.
Other anti-administration delegates,
such as the New Jersey, Indiana and
Illinois groups, followed New York,
all jumping on the Cox band wagon
because to the minds Of the state
leaders it meant taking the party
leadership away from Wilson and it
meant also a chance to win the elec-
tion. The nomination Of Cox was her
aided as a victory Of the anti Wilson
men. Then came the White House
conference and the announcement of
harmony. The happiness of Mr.. MUIR
ply and Mr.. Nugent, Mr.. Brennan ct
al, was destroyed. They had not es-
capped the Wilson burden after all. 1t
was reported that Brennan gave up
all hope Of carrying Illinois after
this and that the enthusiasm Of the
democratic leaders in New York, New
Jersey and Ohio waned.
Now comes this new loophole. The
report appears well based that the
president soon will write this letter
recognizing the Ohio executive, anc
the anti-administration delegates will
be rescued from the harassing posi-
tion in which they have found them
selves during the last few days. Tn.
writing Of the letter, it is interpreted
here, would not release Cox from hi,
obligations to support the Wilso,
league. His commitment to tn,
League Of Nations is taken as ire
vocable. But the leaders argue tina
it would remove the impression tina
Cox was under White House leader
ship and domination. It would leav
the impression that Cox would be hi
own. guide and conscience if he va
elected in November.
