Reflected Ambassadors-The refusal

Rejected mbaSSadorS-Ine retuSaI of a government to accept as ambas sador a person designated for that post is very rarely exercised, since it naturally conveys a slur on the person thus described persona non grata." But there are occasional instances.
 When that great if unmanaSea man Stratford Canning was nominat- cd for the Russian embassy the tsar de- ClarCd that he would not receive him. and there was a very awkward period of tension between the two courts ac- cordingly. It was understood some years ago that the kaiser raised obiec- tions to the appointment of a certain American ambassador, on the ground that he would not maintain the stan dard of his predecessor, a great favor ite at POtsdam. In this case. however, the kaiser had to give way.-London Chronicle.

Governor Frazier's Administration Has
Nineteen Constructive Measures
to Its Credit in North
Dakota.
VOTE The entire TICKET

When an eastern magazine published
an article recently, characterizing the
Nonpartisan league movement as the
greatest, little revolution since 1776 in
the interests of exploited mankind" it
surely hit the nail squarely upon the
head. A study of the laws enacted
by the Nonpartisan legislature since
the league came into power at Bis
marck reveals 10 different pieces of
constructive legislation, all aimed at
lettering the condition of the common
people.
The record of the present Nonparti-
san administration of North Dakota is
unequaled in the annals of American
history. Here are some of the main
reasons why you owe it to yourself,
your family and mankind to vote the
league ticket at the election Novem-
Der 2, from Governor Frazier down.

MRS. BERGDALL GUILTY
Aided Two Sons to Escape Draft
Is Verdict of Jury
"Pity and Sympathy are No Excuse for
Hardening a Deserter or Aiding
Escape" Says Judge.

Philadelphia, Pa.-Mrs. Emma G.
Bergdoll and her four ~co-defendants
were found guilty of conspiring to aid
two Of her sons, Grover land Erwin,
evade the draft. The verdict was re-
turned before Federal Judge Dickin-
son. "
The jury was out nearly eight hours.
Mrs. Bergdoll, her son, Charles A.
Braun, and former Magistrate James
e. Romig, were found guilty on every
count OF the Indictment.
Albert S. Mitchell and Henry Schulz
were acquitted on the indictments in
which they alone we're defendants, but
found guilty with a recommendation
for mercy Oh the joint bills.
On application of their counsel the
defendants were released on $10,0 900
bail each, pending motion for a new
trial.
The trial started Monday and testi-
mony was completed Friday. There
were seven indictments, including 81
counts. In two indictments all five
defendants were charged with con
spring with Grover and Erwin Berg
doll to assist them in evading the

charged each defendant separately
with conspiring with the brothers to

In his charge Judge Dickinson said:

to surrender her own son." and he
added: "Pity and sympathy for a de-
serter are no excuse for h%arboring a
deserter or aiding his escape"

POLISH FAMILIES
COMING TO AMERICA
One Transport Bringing 800 Wives and
Children is on the Way from
Danzig.

| New York, June IA transport
bringing 500 wives and children of Pol
! ish immigrants in this country is on
the way from Danzig to an Ameri.
can port, according to information re-
ceived here by the Hebrew Sheltering
and Immigrant society. This is the
first group of total of $4,000 families
to be brough. to America to be re-
united with husbands and fathers from
whom they have been separated by
war Tor more than six years.
The Hebrew society has undertaken
to find the wives and children of Pol
ish immigrants 10 have been prevented
by the war from sending any aid to
their families, many of whom have
been driven out of their homes in the
war zone and have become lost to their
kin in this country.
This is not project of new immi
grafton said John L. Bernstein, the
society's president Much harm mas
been done by the statement thai we
were inducing Jewish people of Pc
land to come over. That is not the
fact. We have absolutely no concern
with any intended immigrants except
the wives and children of men already
in this country, more than so per cent
of whom are now American citizens"
Mr. Bernstein said that the work
which the society was carrying on was
done with the hearty consent and co:
operation of the bureau OF immigra
ton and the state department.
I'VE began our work. he said, "by
advertising that we would attempt to
locate these mems families and help
them gel to America, Our seven ageu-
eies all over the country were imme-
diately flooded with pleas from $4,000
men who. because of the war. had not
been able tn bring tl,eir families over
or even communicate with them. In
some cases the men had no idea where
their loved ones were.
Our task has been to take what in.
formation we could get of tie last
known residences Of these wives and
children and put our commissioners in
Poland on the trail TO locate them.
When this is done we advise the fam
ily head in America how much money
it viii take to bring his people over
and help him through the formalities
of proving their right of admittance,
When the families actually arrive we
will care for them until they can be
established in their new homes, which
are scattered over the United States.
