ward for governor within the past
week or so, all of them with about
as much chance Of being elected gov
ernor as we have Of being elected
president of the United States. If
these same men who are so anxious to
serve as governor would concentrate
their efforts at this time in unifying
the forces opposed to Townleyism they
could accomplish much more than by
being candidates and splitting up the
ants. Then again two-thirds of
them are mighty poor material for
governor, at that. The only man in
our Judgment who should be consid-
cred at this time is the one who has
the best chance of winning-and that
is William LANCER. He has taken the
brunt Of the battle all along the line.
He it is that has had the courage to
stand up and defy the most powerful
socialistic political machine that ever
fastened itself on this or any other
state. Now that lot of these me-
diocre politicians think that there is
a chance to win after he has started
things coming in the right direction,
they have burning desire to jump
in and carry off the plums. Better
center all efforts on LANCER and make
a sure go Of it. That is the way we
size up the situation. Next week at
Minot will come the big convention to
nominate the state ticket and there
,, should be unity and singleness
of purpose in that convention to NOM
mate that man or men who can
beat the red flag propagandists in the
June primaries.

READING HINTS ON
CURRENT MAGAZINES

The April Atlantic Monthly Maya
zine contains an article of more than
usual interest to the students Of the
Valley City Normal School. 1t was
written by former student of the
school, a niece of our own Miss Ami
don, Mrs. Beulah Amidon Ratcliff.
A predatory note by the editor states
that this was written as a letter to
her father and printed without alter
alton. The editor explains that Mrs.
Ratcltf had gone South as a bride
only few months before and unfa-
miliar happenings etched sharp pic
lures on her mind. The article is en-
, titled, I'm the Delta, True Story of
q Man Hunt" 1t is an exceedingly
well written story giving US all the
thrills of the chase and particularly
interesting because the hunted is a
human being pursued by his fellows.
: The side lights, thrown on the feelings
and attitudes of the Southerner to-
ward the black man, give US Of the
North an intimate glimpse Of a life
unfamiliar and intensely interesting.
1t is a story that is to be commended
for it's simplicity, sincerity, and charm
of style. Every student should read
lit.
If one is interested in the race
problem, he will enjoy reading, "The
Menace of Race Hatred,' in the
March Harper's Magazine. This i'm
presses upon US the seriousness of
conditions in the United States today.
The Third Window by Anna
Douglas Sedgwick, which is conclud-
ed in the April number Of the Allan
tic, reflects the revival Of the present
day interest in the occult. 1t is an IL
Illuminating study of the power of the
clairvoyant with the turning point Of
! the story in the fascinating ouija
board. The authors characters are
clearly and forcibly drawn.
4 pleasant and profitable hour may
be spent in reading in the April At

was engaged in relief work in Rus
sia."

"Why We Need a Secretary Of Ed
ucation," by George Strayer in The
Elementary School Journal sets forth
needed change in the school organi
zation with which we should all be
familiar.
Another publication every prospec
tive teacher might read with profit is,
"The Teachers Association by Lo-
tus D. Coffman, president-elect of the
University Of Minnesota. 1t is print
ed in the April Bulletin Of the Nation
al Education Association. ITO What
Kind of an Association Shall the
Teacher Belong? Shall they join the
American Federation of Teachers
which is affiliated with the American
Federation Of Labor, or shall they
maintain an independent organization
of their own?' is the question which
he proceeds to argue in a most con-
vincing manner. Be sure to read this
and make up your mind for after
graduation each student will be called
upon to decide this important ques-
ton for herself.

cal diamond.
While no stars were discovered in
the session yesterday, still the locals
gave very good account of themselves
and many Of them showed marked
signs Of being ball players: Catcher
Wingfeld, the only salaried player
on the team to date, was behind the
bat and his presence there gave much
confidence to the home boys. "Climax
johnson was in the box for the locals
and showed considerable judgment in
pitching to a new team. Perhaps a
stronger batting aggregation will give
US better opportunity to pass judg-
ment.
The summary Of the game is about
as follows:
First inning O'Hare hit safe to
right and stole second. Hoverson
popped to third and was an easy out
at first. Thurston out at first. Wing

Hiram johnson, who has made a
wonderful showing in both the east
and west for the republican nominal
ton for president, face the hardest
job of his political life tomorrow
when he goes before the people Of his
own state of California for endorse
ment against Herbert Hoover, who is
also candidate for the presidency.
Should Mr.. Johnson lose his own state
tomorrow, it would be a logical con-
clusion to draw that he will virtually
eliminate himself from the race as it
seems ODE an unwritten law that if a
candidate loses his own state he is
looked upon as very undesirable cam
didate. We look to see Hiram carry
California, however, tomorrow, and
then he will have strong lead in the
republican convention. At least he
will have enough delegates to COM
mand considerable respect. Leonard
Wood will go into the convention with
the most instructed delegates, but it
begins to look like dark horse to
win the nomination.

When Attorney
Makes His Plea
But Former Wife Is Unmoved
By Description of Alleged
Wrongs to Man Charged
With Murder.

Jim Harbour, on trial in district
court at Council Bluffs for the MUIR
der of George Mikesell, wept yester-
day as his attorney, J. ]. Hess, in
shis plea to the jury, described how

up his home and stole his wife ard
child from him.

vorce from her first husband. She

the present trial and their daughter,

between the Mikesells and Mr.. and
August Sierck, by whom Harbour
was employed, over pasture rent for
mare the Mikesells had left at the
Sierck place. e
Character witnesses yesterday tes-
tilted that James Harbour has al
ways been a 1aw-abiding citizen and
that George Mikesell and his wife
never had good reputation.
Argument for the defense was
closed yesterday afternoon. c. E.
Swanson, county attorney, will make
final plea for the state this morning
and the case will go into the hands
of the jury, probably before noon.

severe penalties for persons who
with intent to obstruct interstate

ton for reconsideration. Senator
