BOOK BY LANCER OUT

The Morton County Press of Man
dan, corporation owned and con-
trolled by four hundred farmer share
holders, will have off the press this
week an enlightening book on the
Nonpartisan League by William Lam
ger, Attorney General, of North Da-
kota and Republican candidate for
governor at the June primaries, who
put up such a magnificent fight that
Townley and Frazier had to combine
with Alex Mckenzie to beat him-and
even then they just nosed out.
General LANCER goes back beyond
the Nonpartisan movement in his
book, telling first of the abuses in the
marketing of grain and then Of the
growth of the Equity under the lead
ership of George LOTUS, in which
movement he took an active part.
Most interest will undoubt IDLY be
attracted by his sensational expose OF
Townley's financial schemes and the
important part the Scandinavian
American Bank and the Bank of.
North Dakota played in it. He also
tells Of the Valley City Bank deal in
which the promoters, associates OF
Townley's, were forced by the State
Banking Board to pay back thousands
of dollars.
The secret caucus system by means
of which Townley and Lemke are able
to saddle their minority bills on the
majority and force farmers to support
socialistic schemes against their will,
is wildly portrayed in graphic chap
ter illustrated with scenes from the
caucus meetings. In conjunction
with this he shows the Importance
of the newspaper chain as the means
of holding the axe over any one who
shows an iota of independence and has
the courage to oppose any of Town.
ley's or Lemke's pet schemes.
Much is already known of the
League leaders to override the will OF
the people as expressed at the poiis
and with the contempt for democracy
rampant in old czaristic Russia, to
throw Miss Minnie j. Nileson, State
Superintendent of Public Instruction,
out of Office and General Langer's
successful fight to prevent this. The
chapter which tells of this, however.
will prove especially interesting as it
gives many details not heretofore pub
lished.
Among other things that Mr.. Lam
ger discusses are the "Free Love anc
the Schools" Taxes" "Fear of the
Leaders to take. the Witness Stand :.
''The Socialist Political Machine" ana
care the Leaders Socialists?"
In the preface General LANCER pub
fishes the full text of the "Antl-
Liars" act, which makes it felony
for any state officer to make any false
statements regarding the Nonpartisan
League administration, and challenges
any states attorney or Mr.. Lemke,
Governor Frazier's special attorney,
to arrest him in any county in the
state. If any part of Mr.. Langer's

WASHINGTON, May 81 Today
President Wilson transmitted to the
Senate a message vetoing the Knox
peace resolution, declaring an end to
the war between the United States
and Germany, with Austria-Hungary.
The veto message declares that "the
resolution is in effect complete sur
render of the rights of the United
States so far as the German govern
ment is concerned.
The President bitterly condemns
the resolution, declaring it said moth
ing about the purposes for which
America entered the war. Among
such purposes he listed freedom of the
seas; reduction of armaments; vim
dication of the rights of Belgium;
righting of wrong done France; re-
lease of Christians from Turkish rule;
and Polish outrages.
"Such a peace with Germany,
AYERS the President, "a peace in
which none of the essential interests
which we had at heart when we en-
tered the war is safeguarded, is OF
ought to be inconceivable. 1t is in
conceivable with the dignity of the
United States, with the rights and
liberties of our citizens and with the
very fundamental conditions OF
civilization"
The President had been expected to
sound in his message the keynote of
the Democratic fight for ratification;

Crop Prospects in
Arizona

The Weather Bureau in its weekly
report Of ranges and stock conditions
states that recent showers, ranging
from moderate to heavy oveh the maj
ority of grazing sections, have been of
great benefit to pastures and to the
water supply. Characteristic of veg
citation in the Southwest grass has
come on rapidly since the showers of
last Friday and marked improvement
is reported from nearly all sections.
Additional reports of a large calf
crop are being received, an estimate
OF eighty per cent coming from the
Pinto section, Apache County. The
Indian Service reports that there has
been practically no stock loss on the
Fort Apache Indian Reservation this
snr:ng owing to the excellent graz
ing conditions there had been no loss
from loco weed. The calf ad lamb
crops in that section are fine.
Crop Progress in Arizona
o. 10000 acres planted to cotton
in the Salt River Valley less than five
thousand have been damaged in any
way by the hailstorm of the 21st.
Much Of that affected is recovering
under the seasonable weather .condi-
ions while a considerable acreage will
need to be replanted which probably
be done where conditions of soil and
length of growing season warrat.
Fortunately the greatest damage was
done where light soil and long grow
ing season encourage replanting. Out
side of the area affected by hail cot
ton has made good progress in the
various sections of the state, higher
temperature, both day and night, con-
4a,ibuting to its welfare. Some al
falfa was discolored by the rain Fri
day but good progress has generally
been made in it's harvest and that of
barley.

GEN. ESCOBAR TAKES
FIELD after FAILURE
OF NEGOTIATIONS WITH
T He BANDIT Chief.
UNITED Press Service)

Ell PASO, May 27.-The last hope
of a peaceful settlement of affairs be-
tween the new government Of Mexico
and Pancho Villa was abandoned to-
day when General Escobar took the
field with 1000 men in an effort to
run down and capture the bandit
leader.
In wiring this information to Juar-
ez headquarters, General Enriquez,
commander at chihuahua City, said:
eff I fail in any way to make an ar.
rangement with Villa, and there is no
remedy but chase and fight him, that
will be DONE" ~
Enriquez wired that Villa had
liberated George Miller, manager for
the Alvarado Mining Company; but
had imposed a tax of $4,000 on his
company under penalty of cutting off
it's electrical power.
Enriquez cut off telegraphic COM
munications with Villa after the BAN
dit had demanded that he be appoint
ed at least chief of military opera
tions in the state of Chihuahua.

Vulnerable chances of plunder. When
things were going so badly and Car
ranza let his Generals and Political
Grafters explicit The country and g.t
beyond his control when he was
Minister of War, he preferred to re-
tire to his farming and garbanza ex-
port business than to remain with
President Carranza and become part

He has never had much money and
was content with a modest income
from his farm and business. When
he could have made millions by dig
ging into the trough of lust and greed

One of the things that gives the
whole Nation implicit confidence in
Gen. Obregon is that ever since he
took up arms to defend the State of
Sonora against invasion by Gen.
Orosc0 and in defense of the ideals
Of Gen. Madero he has never swerved
from, his consistent course of loyalty
10 the revolutionary cause. Some of
the principal figures in recent Mexi-
can history have flopped from one
party to another at each turn of the
wind. When he adhered to Gen. Car

chances of success were very meager
J but he quickly showed his great abil.
ity Us leader and organizer and his
personal leadership in battle in one OF
which battles he lost an arm showed
personal fearlessness that has been
rarely equalled.
His few enemies will make capital
out the unfortunate incident attached
to the death of Carranza and will try
to show that Gen. Obregon is direct
ly responsible, but those who know
him know that he would a thousand
times prefer to have Carfanza escape
alive, in fact his generous offer tt
Carranza shows that.
His scathing denunciation of the
cowardice of Ca1Tanza's few follower:
who were sufficient in number to pro-
tect Carranza's life together with hi:
tribute to Carranza's considering it ar
undignified act to surrunder to his
enemies is quite typical of Gen. Obre

garding the securing of funds by the
county sufficient to get the $150,0O0
state and federal aid necessary to

along the line outlined by the Bank
head Highway, brought out the fact
that the people of the entire county
are heartily in favor of building the
road.

After several speakers had pre-
sented plans by which it was pro.
posed to divert money from the bond
issue now available for building the

The bond money had been voted fol
specific purposes, and could not, he
had been informed be diverted legal
ly to other uses. Besides this, the
supervisors had no say whatever in
the spending of the money, as board
of county highway commissioners had
been appointed who were responsible
for the proper spending of the money
as provided in the calls for the bono
election at the time the money was
voted.

.MEX|CO,S MAN OF THE HOUR:
A L|FEL|KE PORTRAIT, IN
AN INTERVIEW

Foreigners of all nationalities re-
sidirg in Mexico are rallying to the
standard of General Alvaro Obregon.
H. Percy Meaker, an Englshman who
has made his home in Sinaloa for
man; years and who during the re-
cent war with Germany, acted in an
executive capacity for the British
Government, has the following to say
regarding General Alvaro Obregon:
The recent swift developments in
Mexico emphasizes very distinctly
the popularity of Gen. obregon show
ing the faith and confidence the
Army and all classes have in him.
People who know him intimately
are lot astonished by the recent
rapid developments, he is perhaps
one of the greatest organizers in the
WOFLD today and undoubtedly the
strongest and most able man in Mex
leo at this time.
An Englishman who has known him
intimately for years says of him,
that one of his principal powers is
his wonderful memory. One of his
easy stunts is to deal out a complete
deck of playing cards to a party of
seven and memorize what cards each
one has received, and then commence
backward and tell each man correct
ly what cards he holds.
He remembers whole columns of
newspaper articles and many days
after reading it can repeat verbatum
the entire article if he cares to do so.
He remembers incidents for years
back. A great deal of the book "eight
thousand kilometers of campaigning
is written and drawn from his mar
velous memory. He remembers his
common soldiers, his constituents
remembers their peculiarities and
idiosyncrasies. He knows his country
perfectly and will probably some day
write very interesting book de-
scribing each State of the Republic
He is of course very keen Patriot
but he is not socialistic fanatic, he
has world of common sense and his
fund of wit and humor is inexhaust.
able. There will never be any trouble
between Mexico and the United
States if Gen. Obregon can deal direct
ly with it. He is vely direct anc
straight forward and knows how tc
compromise the most delicate situa
tion.
Gen. Obregon is entirely fearles:
and despies cowardliness. He ha!
developed wonderfully in the last ter
years and is never too bigotted Il

CITY of MEXICO, May 27.-The
daughters of the deceased ruler of
Mexico, Don Venustiano, relate, that
in parting with them upon his flight
from the city, their father exclaimed:
Il will return to Mexico still its Pre-
sident, Oh | will return dead"
This statement is taken as corrob-
orative of the assertion of Rodolfo
Herrera, the bandit who is alleged to
have assassinated Carranza, that the
fleeing ruler really ommited suicide
rather than risk capture, which was
imminent.
