PREDICTS GROTON IRON WORKS
 WILL YET MAKE GOOD

William BroSmith of Hartford who is member of the creditors committee Of the Groton Iron works, is sanguine that the Groton shipbuildng plant will work out of its financial difficulties. Regarding the issue of new notes to take up those that fell due last Monday, he is quoted as saying:
 Persons who hold notes of the Groton Iron works which became due Monday to the amount of about $40o,000 perhaps will not relish the idea of getting only 20 per cent. in cash now and new notes for the balance in view of the fact that the Groton Iron works is not in a prosperous condition"
 He added, however, that he thought the investment was safe and that the ship building industry at the Groton Iron works would pick up and increase the revenues of the company. Mir. BroSmith said that the plant is the best shipbuild- ing plant on the Atlantic coast and the prospects of it's receiving contracts for many ships in the future are very good. Mir. BroSmith is a member of the cred ltors committee and counsel for the Travellers Bank and Trust Co.,, trustee for the noteholders
 The so per cent. outstanding when new notes have been issued represents e4 per cent. of the original indebtedness which the corporation carried when it went into the hands of the present management. as 20 per cent. of the original indebtedness was paid last. spring when the six months notes which became due Monday were issued.
 An official of the Groton Iron works said that if MT. Morse is able to pull through the present crisis the future of the yard is assured and that if he can ! tide over the present difficulties and ob- tain his just settlement with the govern ment he will own free of incumbrance , the Groton plant, which is valued at sew eral million dollars. MT. Morse put in nearly quarter of a million of his own l private funds into the Groton housing
 project for furnishing houses for yard
 employees during the years of the war con. | tracts.

cluded the following outline: Tools classification of tools, cutting tools. meas uring tols, finishing tools, and care of tools: kinds of wood and their uses, fn- ishing of different articles.
 About one lesson was taken up by this review, which was followed by lesson on the actual use of the cutting and measuring tools. Following this. each pupil was allowed to select some articles to make for use in his home. In this case the pupil was charged the actual cost Of material used. In cases where pupils did not care to go to this expense they were given repair work to do, or they made something for the school.
 The work of the seventh grade was commenced much the same as that of the eighth grade, except that it was given as original work rather than review work. thus requiring several more lessons be- fore the class could actually start making articles for the home
 The articles made Tor the school de- l partment include several sets of shelves, | three foot rests, one teeter-totter, one bulletin board. several picture frames. several boxes for kiEdergaften blocks. one cabinet for kindergarten. five window boxes. nine window boards, chalk trays for blackboards and supply closet
 The articles repaired include z1 chairs seven doors. three seats, two desks. one typewriter desk. one small kindergarten table, two stands for pathetic fields. sew eral window boxes. one dictionary stand
 The list of articles made and taken home by the boys includes key racks. hat and coat rack. ironing boards, flower stands. foot stools. small tables. book shelves, medicine cabinet, picture frames screen frames, bird houses skis, umbrella rack.
 It seems necessary for hove in ebor work to have some knowledge of me. chanical drawing as well as ability tc read blue prints. With this object in view. I have provided blue prints of each article made in the shop. From these blue prints the boys have gained very good idea of this subject. From this method feel that they will soon acquire the ability to prepare a drawing of the article they wish to make in the shop.

MlLITARESM GOES
DOWN TO DEFEAT

Wadsworth Bill For Universal Train
ing Loses. People Must Watch If
they Would Prevent Prussianizing
the United States.
Washington, March 17.-Opponents
of militarism in America have gained
a signal victory in the defeat Of the
Wadsworth bill. The public protest
in the form of letters against compul-
sorry military training to Republican
National committeeman and state
chairmen impelled G. 0. P. Congress-
men to attack the bill endorsed. by
Secretary of War Baker. The Demo-
Gratis then became alarmed lest the
Republicans would run away with the
issue. They held a caucus and against
the wishes of President Wilson de-
nounced military training. So the
Wadsworth bill is no more.
But Congress still requires watch
ing. The militarists will leave no
stone unturned to force their Prus-
sianism on the nation. An army re-
organization bill will be passed that
may contain a provision to automatic
ally fasten the draft act on the coun-
try whenever Congress an dthe presi-
dent declare national emergency"
to exist which may be a big strike OF
proposed Mexican invasion.

I.V. A.FANATlC
TEMPTS TO MURDER
Thought That Vicious Act Was In
spired BY the Recent Frenzicd and
Fanatical Speeches Delivered at Will
liston by Bill LANCER and Rev. Biz
chenouph.

Williston, March 15.-An unknown
person shot at C. J. Knapp, editor Of
the Williams County farmers Press
cary this morning. The ball, appar-
emily from rifle in the hands Of a
person in one of the buildings across
the street from the newspaper Office,
was of small caliber but probably
from high power cartridge. After
passing through the heavy plate glass
window the bullet buried itself in
three inches of hardwood forming the
side of a heavy filing cabinet.
Officials who are working on the
case attribute the attempt on Mr..
knapp's life to fanatic, excited by
the inflammatory speeches of the /.
V. A. campaigners who visited Willis
ton recently. Rev. Allen Birchenough
made a vicious attack on the farmer
editor in the course of his address.
Rev. Birchenough is sensitive because
Mr.. Knapp forced him to admit to his
audience that he is not a citizen of
the United States but British sub
ject. Some of the auditors resented
Birchenough's attempt to prove Leag-
uers unAmerican when he himself is
not an American. Bill LANCER also
made one of his frenzied addresses.
Threats against the editor of the
Farmers Press have been made fire.

Grazing Fees For
the Coming Season

The grazing fees for the present
year on the Fort Peck reservation
will be $500 per head for horses and
cattle, 40c for dry sheep and Coo for
ewes with lambs. This means sea-
son grazing only and does not provide
for winter quarters or winter grazing.
The sheep men have all agreed to
this and it does not matter whether
or not the cattle and horse men agree
to it because very few of them pay
until they are sued no matter what
the grazing fee. There is now twen-
ty cases in the Federal court and the
officials expect to secure judgment on
them sometime this month.
No grazing permit is given to any
one on the reservation unless they
agree to herd the cattle, or put them
in pasture.
