resentation which is being resorted to
by the Townley forces in the effort to
stave off defeat in the coming pri-
mary election has been shown up
again.
At political rally at Holmes
postofioe, Grand Forks county,
held on June "a, one Charlie
Griggs of Michigan township
publicly declared that he had
been offered $50 by the 1. v. A.
forces for his vote.
Today five men who heard the
charge made bear witness that
that this charge was false and
was wholly manufactured by him,
and had no foundation whatever
in truth.
He has also declared his willingness
to make a public apology for his false
charge at a meeting held at the same
place and before practically the same
audience, according to the same COM
mittee.
At the meeting held on June "a
Carl E. johnson and Arnt A. Lee were
the anti-Townley speakers. Griggs
interrupted Mr.. Lee with the charge
that an attempt had been made to
bribe him. This charge brought forth
an immediate demand that he give
the name of the would-be briber, but
he promptly left the meeting before
he could be cornered.
Later he was waited on by COM
mittee of five men with the demand
that he either furnish the name Of the
man who attempted to bribe him or
retract the charge: The result was
that he issued the following retrac-
ton, according to the signed state
ment Of the: FIVE men who visited him.

L0DCEPOLE PINE IS
 AVAILABLE FOR PULP

HELENA, Mont, Jan. 24.-state Forester J. c. Hook thinks newspaper publishers of tf' sections err great 1y in not going vigorously after the oft-broached proposition of making paper of lodge pole pine. There is little commercial demand for this timber and forests of it, he says, go to waste.
 Experts are said to have declared repeatedly that there are good pros- poets that the lodge pole pine would produce newsprfnt paper. The state forests are largely in lodge pole pine.
 MT. Van Hook, in a recent state,. ment, urged the press of Montana to combine and go into the question.

 NEW PLAYERS

2 KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Jan. 24.-John Canzel, manager of the Kansas City club, who has captured penant once and second place once in three years and who has been with the American Association Club will have charge of the Blues again this season. He sign ed a contract for one year.
 Ganzel plans to take his team to CIaremore, Okla, 225 miles south of here to train The Blues will come home April 1, and the American As sociation season probably will open April A.
 Ganzel is still awaiting word from Seattle in regard to Ed Sweeney, catcher The Seattle club has not yet signed waivers on Sweeney.
 While contracts generally will not be sent out for some weeks, the local management at present is lining up it's pitching staff for the season. Guy Hoffman, who led the pitchers of the Western League last season, has been re-purchased from St. Joseph, and is expected to wear a Blue uniform this coming year. Jes- SC Haines, leader of the American Association pitchers, will probably again appear for Kansas City. Mick ey" LaLonge, standby pitcher of the 1919 season, is expected to be back again for the coming year. Other players who made good with the team last year, and who may be expected to give careful consideration to re- newal contracts for 1920. are: Bunny Srief, first base; Alexander McCarty, second base; Joe McAuley, short stop; Hoke Warner, third base; Ward Miller, Beals Becker and Wilbur Good, outf;elders.
 CHICAGO, Jan. 24.-Presidential years usually are considered "1ean" for baseball, but August Heffermann, president of the worlds champion Cincinnati Nationals, believes the game in 1920 will enjoy the same pros- perity which attended the revival of the sport last season. The internal rows, which have shaken the Ameri- can League, will be settled before the spring training season opens. Hefferman believes, and all other diff . ,ficulties between the American and National leagues will have ben suc- cssfully ironed out to the benefit of the game.
 Naturally, want to see Cincinnati win again, he said. "But I'd give a great deal to see such an even bal ance of strength as there was last year. For this season I hope to see some deals made and trade complet- ed that will help the weaker teams. I would be delighted to see fifty young stars come up from the minors, and have them all make good"
 Manager Pat Moran does not con- template making any changes in the club, according to the President. Some of the players have already signed contracts for the 1920 season, but their names will not be announced un- til shortly before the spring training trip. Some of the players have been

Nothing Is so. Ruinous

Of all your wife's household duties, noth- ing Is more ruinous to her health than the weekly washing. Here's the work she must do. For several hours she goes through the back-wrenching toll of scrubbing and rub ping over washtub in a hot kitchen. Then she carries heavy clothes basket out of the hot, steamy kitchen into cold, outdoor air and hangs up the cothes. The result? Your wife is tired out at night, she's fretful, she doesn't feel well. She is slowly but
 surely running her health The weekly washing must be done-but not in your home nor at the expense of your wife's health and happiness. At the same cost she can have the entire family washing done just as satisfactorily as in her own home by our Family Laundry
 Service
 At the laundry the clothes are washed in the modern, easy way, by wonderful ap- pGances. The laundryman calls for the entire washing and returns it on schedule as follows:
 All flat pieces including bed linen table linen and towels, washed, smoothly ironed, evenly folded
 and ready for use
 Wearing apparel all underclothng, dresses, chil- dren's garments, etc., carefully washed and dried (and starched where necessary) ready to be damp ened and ironed.
 Many undergarments may be worn without iron ing, due to the method of drying This will save great deal of your work in finishing that portion of
 your wash. It's dollars to doughnuts that even you, a man, couldn't stand the week-after-week labor of wash ing Why let your wife do it? Have her send it
 to JONES'.
