LEAGUE NAMED
COUNTY TICKET
SAYS AMERICAN
According to News Item In
Townley Press Several Can
didates Put In Field In This
County. Nd

According to Devils Lake news
item in the Grand Forks American;
which is one of the leading TownlSy
papers, there was at least partial
county ticket named here on Wednes-
day, when a handful of farmers and
several laboring men of this city got
together in what was supposed to be
a League county convention. The
American heads the. article, Ramsey
County Farmers and Labor Forces
Stick" AS a matter of fact there
were less than 20 farmers in the meet
ing, and most Of those were suspect
ed paid League boosters, together
with a number Of the more radical
labor element of this city. The la
Dor element really controlled the meet
ing.
According to the American, the fol-
lowing legislative ticket was named:
Senator, John R. Anderson, banker
of Edmore; Representatives, w. P,
Faulk, of Mortified township; Geo
D. Laird, of Webster, and G. w. Nc.
Donnel, of this city. Mr. Anderson
is cashier of the First National Bank
of Edmore, one of the chain of banks
controlled by Geo. E. Towle, of Min.
neapolis. He is a fine young man and
has made a success of his. business
but according to our opinion, has
made some grave mistakes, political.
ly, in being led by bunch who really
have no time for him, more than tc
use him. We predict that his chances
to go to the senate are very slim
Most people of this county have heard
of w. P. Faulk. He has been in the
lime light, politically, in this county
for some time, but while he has run
for various Offices he got got far, and
it is a well known fact that he could
not carry his own township on bet
He is radical Socialist, and is one
Of the weakest candidates that could
possibly have been put up. Geo
Laird, one of their other nominees
succeeded in being sent to the legis.
lature from this county once, and
when he got to Bismarck he was com.
pletely hypnotized by the Townley out
fit, and was one of the creatures Of
the "secret" caucus, and never failec
to vote as he was told. His chances
for being returned from this county
to the legislature are about as good
as Mike Fitzgcrald's chance of being
the Democratic nominee for president
The other candidate, G.. W. Mcdonnell
is one of the Socialist labor agitators
Of this city, and is reported to be
drawing a salary from the Townley
machine. He would be a~nice man tc
represent the farmers of this county
but there is no fear of his being sent
to Bismarck. The American article
says, that M. A. Hoghaug was made

whose voting members We're to elec.
the new member and make it's bylaws
and publishing society in close al
lance with, but not under the rule Of,
the church or its officers"
Mr. Dodge, who formerally was
Judge Of the United States Circuit
Court here, was appointed as master
by Judge Lorirg of the Supreme court
to determine the facts at issue, and
also to interpret two deeds of trust
made in 1892 and 1898, respectively,
by Mary Baker Eddy, founder of the
Christian Science church. In the first
trust deed, Mrs. Eddy named four
trustees, since designated as directors
and ir the second she provided for
trustees who should have charge of
ali publications intended to promote
the growth Of the Christian Science
movement.
The trustees of the publishing So
ciety claimed that under their deed
they were Independent of control by
the directors. The directors contended
that under the bylaws and Manual of
the Mother Church they were the su-
preme authority over all it's activities.
Judge Dodge upholds the ground
taken by counsel for the trustees and
for Dittemore that the bylaws of the
church did not confer powers upon
the directors possessed by "deacons" OF
"wardens" of churches incorporates
under the statutes of Massachusetts.
These bylaws, in the opinion of
Judge Dodge, are simply a contract
created by the signed applications fol
membership in the church:

meliorating the unfavorable condition
Of French exchanges on America.
Nevertheless the questions of provid-
ing transportation and hotel accommo
dations here are causing some misgiv-
ings and hotel keepers generally are
bcwailing the limited means Of bring
ing visitors to France.
Dal Piaz, director Of the Transat-
lantic Company, has expressed his
opinion that the number of Americans
desiring to visit France in the coming
season will far surpass the transpor-
tation facilities, but that this will be
relieved by the putting into service
of passenger vessels now under con-
structon principally in England before
the French hotels have been organiz-
ed to receive the expected influx of
foreign visitors.
The warning that Americans ''are
trribly eNacting" as regards comfort
in hotels and as to their management
is given by Victor Cambon, an engin-
eer who knows America well. He
says:
ut is not only the rich who desire
refinement in hotels but all Ameri-
cans"
Mr.. Cambon asserts that, outside
o. Paris and resorts like Vichy, Nice
and Deauville, it is impossible to find
five good hotels in all France, even if
towns like Lyons, Marseilles, and
Rouen are included.
Americans, he adds, edo not want
luxury; all they ask is perfect clean
liness, no greasy smells, comfort and
hygiene. Where can you find that
among us? Nowhere is there much
! Of it but everywhere there is one
thing, our cooking. That is certainly
much but, frankly it is not enough" "

Aero-Sleigh Used

Sherwood, N. D., March 5.-An aero
sleigh owned by the Sherwood Auto
company here, was used to make the
trip on one of the local R. F. D. routes

is believed that this is the first time
that sleigh of this kind has been

permanent chairman of the County

permanent chairman of the County
Central Committee. Hoghaug. is an
ardent follower of Townley, probably
because he hes brel cvnnecteI with
the Socialist payroll for years past.
Mr.. Hoghaug seems to think that he
cannot make living unless he is
drawing salary from the county or
state. He served in the Legislature
once, and made such mess Of it
that he was defeated when lie came
up for reelection, and he is just about
the calibre of a man whom we would
suggest should head the Socialist or
ganization.
About the extent of the balance Of
the meeting was to endorse the Fra-

olution asking him to run again.

WORK

DELAY
Difficulty in Securing Enumer-

Is Cause.

The work of enumerating the citi-
zens Of Idaho county and gathering
the data required by the government
will be delayed somewhat by the diff
ficulty that is being experienced in
securing enumerators to handle the
work.
Eight persons took the enumeration
for enumerators and we learn that
some of the number have declined to
enter the Merk for the reason that
the pay is insufficient, particularly as
to the mountainous regions.
M. Reese Hattabaugh is aiding Su-
perintendent J. b. Benedict in secur-
ing enumerators and while some have
been allotted districts there still exists
a great shortage. Mr.. Benedict is ex.
pected here shertly when it is hoped
that workers for all the districts OF
the county will be engaged.

IDAHO LEGISLATURE IN
SPECIAL SESSION
Lawmakers Will Meet February 11-One Day-To Ratify
Equal Suffrage Amendment; No
Other Business

Boise, Dec. Ex-Governor Davis to-
day announced that he would on
February II convene the fifteenth
Idaho legislature in special session at
Boise for. the purpose of ratifying the
constitutional suffrage amendment.
The formal proclamation convening
the legislature will be issued Monday.
All arrangements have been complet-
ed, however, for the meeting of the
solons and no time will be lost IL or
ganizing them and getting down to
the business Of ratification. 1t Is
likely that the amendment will be ap-
proved by unanimous vote of both
houses. Idaho Is in favor of suffrage
nationally and has for many years
been a woman suffrage state. Owing
to the fact the old legislature halls
have disappeared and are now being
replaced by wings Of the new state
capitol, the sessions will be held ir
the Pinney theatre or some other hall
in Boise. As there will be nothing
but the suffrage issue liz the legisla
tive call no other subjects under che
state constitution can be considered.

night Governor Davis said: "Witf
