AIR TRIP TO ALASKA.
Recent Military Experiment is of
Great Value.

Military and civil aeronautical ex-
perts declare that the completion re-
Gently of the trip of four Americans
who are army aviators, from New
York to Nome, Alaska, was epoch
al in it's military and commercial i'm
portance as Blerlot's first fight
across the English channel, since it
opens Alaska to aeronautics.
Reports state that the Alaskans
are determined to bring about regu-
lar communication through the air
and now look to the government to
foster the new project.
AS the result of the flight it is said
an aerial route has been photograph
ed and charted diagonally across the
United States, Canada and Alaska,
with tentative supply and air service
sites.
The air board states that the fol-
lowing has been accomplished by the
flight:
An effective aerial route to the
northwest corner of the American
continent and Asia has been estab-
lished. Inaccessible areas in Alas
ka which had never been mapped
have been charted and photographed.
Usefulness of the airplane as a
means of transportation both for mail
and passenger and freight has been
demonstrated. Necessity of landing
fields and service supply stations
throughout the United States and its
territories has been shown.
Durability of modern airplanes and
motors has been proven and it has
been learned that flying is safe, even
over territory where transport by
railroad, automobile and wagon is
considered extremely difficult.
The report Of Captain ST. Clair
Street, who was in command of the
expedition, states that the flyer con-
sidered the routes across the eastern
states as having few landing fields
and not ideal in any instance. The
middle west and Canada, he says, as
far as Edmonston, was ideal

II MONTHS IN RUSSIA.
Corporal Spent Nearly Year and Half
of Suffering in Soviet.

After II months in Soviet Russia,
where he was twice wounded and
CAPTURED by the Bolsheviki on the
Archangel front on March L. 1919,
CORPORAL Arthur Prince of the 339th
United States infantry, arrived at the
Finnish frontier on August 1, says a
Viborg, Finland, dispatch to the AS
sociated Press. On board the train
with Prince, whose home is IN De-
troit, came 800 French, Danish and
Swedish refugees from Russia, who
are being repatriated by their re-
spective governments.
Prince was one of four Americans
sent out on this refugee train by the
Bolshevik authorities at Moscow.
Among the other Americans who ar
rived were two correspondents who
crossed Russia from Vladivostock and
Mrs. Emily Sarman, of New York, a
refugee from Samara. Thirty other
Americans who have gathered at
Moscow from various points in Rus
sia and Siberia are awaiting in the
Bolshevik capital for permission OF
the Soviet authorities to leave the
country. all anxious for the American
government to take steps to obtain
their release.
Tattered clothing and shoes given
him by Americans in Moscow, with a
leg badly set after being broken, suf-
fering from effects of a wound in the
side and from loss of weight as a re-
suit of IA months of scant diet in Rus
sian hospitals, Corporal Prince has
entered for two weeks stay in the
quarantine camp on the Finnish from
tier in accordance with the regula-
tions imposed upon all persons leav-
ing Russia. After his stay in quar-
antine he will report to the American
consulate in Helsingfors for commu-
nication with the American army au-
thorities as to where he is to report
for duty.
CAPTURED in Snow.
Prince was captured while leading
a patrol in Russia 250 versts south
east OF Archangel over snow shoe
trail four feet deep in snow. The
Americans were ambushed by the
Bolsheviki. Prince was hit in the
knee and his leg was broken, while
another bullet struck him in the side
as he was crawling toward the Amer
lean line. The corporal was captured
and placed on stretch sleigh which
started on 250-versts trip.
No Americans knew of his presence
in Russia until more than a year lat
er, when Prince recovered sufficient

ly to go to the Bolshevik foreign Of
fee and ask how to get home.

ly to 60 to the Bolshevik foreign Of
fee and ask how to get home.
When the Americans in Moscow
learned of his presence they cared
for him until permission was receiv-
ed for him to take the refugee train
to the border.
From Kotlis, where Prince first
found medical attention, he was re-
moved by hospital train to Kostroma,
in Middle Russia, where he under
went seven months of intense suf-
fering and three operations necessi-
tated by the attempts of the Russian
surgeons to treat his broken leg, the
tendops of which had become taut
as a result of improper attention on
the long Journey from the front.
On September 29, last, Prince was
discharged from a hospital and sent
as a prisoner to The Tula concentra-
tion camp, composed of Anti-Bol-
shevik prisoners. Here after three
days his wounds necessitated his 60
ing into a hospital again. There he
remained for month when he was
transferred to Moscow, 120 miles to
the north.
At Moscow Prince says he expert
enced the worst sufferings on his en-
tire stay in Russia. The hospital was
heated only two hours daily in the
November weather; there were un-
trained nurses and only a few doc
tors in the hospital and also short
age of medicine. The food conditions
were bad. Through the friendship
of an lish-Jew-Bolshevik soldier,
who had been wounded while fight
ing on the southern front, Prince
| learned of an international hospital
maintained by Hungarians in Mos
cow, where conditions were reported
to be better
Permission was obtained for his
transfer to this hospital but in three
weeks the hospital authorities had
not been able to furnish transporta-
tion for him across the city of Mos
COW. Finally the Englishman whose
wounds did not prevent him from
walking, went to the hospital officials
and told them that he had revolver
and five bullets in it and that he
would kill four Russians and then
himself unless conveyance was OBJ
tanned for himself and Prince. The
transportation was secured. Prince
went to the hospital from which he
was released May 2. Then he was
taken to home formerly maintained
by the British in Moscow and under
the better treatment and food he had
improved so much in four months that
he was discharged and sent to con-
centration camp for Austrian prison
ers arriving from Siberia for repa-
triation.

OUR w CANDIDACY.

In accordance with the provisions
of the state law, providing for the
selection of the official newspaper for
each county of the state, the Cava-
lier County Farmers Press has with
in the past week made request of the
county auditor that its name be
placed upon the official ballot as a
candidate for the official paper of
Cavalier county at the general cleo.
ton on November End.
AS a candidate for that office the
Cavalier County Farmers Press So
licits the support and vote of the
electors of Cavalier county. We feel
that our record as the official paper
under appointment. merits this support
and we shall base our candidacy upon
that record as a promise of what we
shall do if elected to the anne posi-
ton for another two year term. The
readers of the paper know where it
stands that it stands solidly behind
everything in the way of public i'm
provement both for Langdon and the
county as a whole. The aim is to
build up in the Cavalier County
Farmers Press such a paper that is
representative of its best interests,
serving both the farming and COM
munity welfare in every possible way
that it can. 1t wants to be a factor in
the civic life of the people of the en-
tire county. Its political position is
firmly established and the name ty-
plies its desire at all times to stand
up for and fight for the great ma
~jority-the farmers of the county.
In a nut shell this paper promises it's
continuation as a servant of the best
interests of Cavalier county in return
for the support of the people of the
county at the polls on November End,
The contest at the polls for the
election of an official paper of Cava-
lier county will follow the same lines
as the campo ign that is being waged
for the election of every candidate
for political position in North Da
kota. This paper il farmer owned
over two hundred substantial grain
growers and live stock breeders of
Cavalier county have bought and paid
for it and the paper would be consid-
cred two-faced if it did not stanc
squarely' for what the farmers ask
for through their state organization,
the nonpartisan league, its platform
of policy and principles and the party
candidates for office who have re.
ceived the leagues endorsement, ano

But the writer feels that this pa

particularly from those men and wo-

of the Farmers Press politically, have
been benefited by TIE activities of
of the paper as a whole. 1t ought to
have a representative support at the
