RECALL AND
OTHER THINGS

AZ the city hall last night big
crowd gathered to listen to speakers
sent here by the ! g. A. headquarters
to talk over stat s Affairs and to try
and organize + !. local unit. Rev.
Birchenough, tn Eghting parson from
Penabina was S.rtised as the chief
speaker but or 5: count of the illness
Of his wife WI s Unable to be present.
but substitu in the person of Rep
resentative 2 s.. Shipley, Of Dickin-
son, was he sto speak in his stead
and was the ,S.st speaker of the eve
ming. Mr.. Slipley confined himself
mostly to ing Of the work of the
Investigate committee of the recent
house sesslu.. an dendeavored to show
that the investigation contrary to the
report of the leaguers, was in every
sense held fairly and squarely with
the single purpose of getting the true
facts in regard to the status of our
state. He was followed by Lieut.. Dan
E. Richter, Nthe fighting soldier boy
who gave the people a talk full of pep
and he handled the socialist outfit
without. gloves. He contended that it
was mighty poor policy to advocate
leCIluS IuOSc Ill pOWcI W any uIOIc
damage and made plea for the peo-
pie of this state to clean house thor
oughly and now. He had no patience
he said, with those who wanted to let
this present regime continue in power
until they changed" themselves, and
said that the socialist leaders were not
the kind to quit as long as they could
get any cash to handle. Mr.. Richter
is live wire speaker and he no dooubt
impressed those who heard him. The
party was accompanied from Fargo
BY Theo. Nelson, secretaryofthe "

HIGH SCHOOL MEETS
DEFEAT FROM LEGION

Well it looks like the Legion basket
ball team for the champions of the
city. It is now up to the Normal
team to take that. right away from
them or let them have it. They are
going to try to take it away on next
Thursday, March II.
The American Legion last night
romped away with the Valley City
High School team by a score of SO to
IL. The first half ended 81 to 10 in
favor Of the Legion team, and the
High School team was held to only one
field basket in the last half, while the
Legion team. increased their lead
steadily after the first five minutes Of
play in the last half. The High School
played strong game, but sheer
weight and height won the game for
the American Legion. Wertin starred
for the Hih School in point getting
although his colleagues played a fast
game, and done some excellent guard
ing, breaking up many shots immedi-
ately under their opponents basket,
Even though they suffered defeat
the opinion was expressed by those
that saw the game last evening that
if the High School team played as
good in the state finals at Minot as
they did last night they will be GER
tain of bringing home the state cham
pionship cup for the third time in
three years in succession.
The game was played between the
High School and Legion for the bene-
fit of the newly organized Valley City
band and a good crowd was out, con-
sidering the nature of the weather
The band was on hand and played be-
fore the game and between halves.

PETITIONS WILL
GO IN TODAY

The petitions for the initiated laws
will be forwarded to the Secretary of
State for filing The time in
which to get signatures on these pc
titions was very short. Petitions in
many instances, arrived at the destina-
tion on the day that they were to be
returned to the headquarters, but even
so, more than 10000 signatures were
obtained on those that arrived early
enouh to gbe circulated a day. Only
about 10000 sinatures will be filed;
10000 being sufficient to insure the
initiation of these laws.
The people will, however, have no
chance to vote on these laws unless
recall election is ordered by the
Devils Lake convention, because it is
not likely that the governor will ac-
commodate the independents enough
to call an election in which these laws
can be voted. o
The recall petitions are now being
put in circulation. The Campaign
Committee calls special attention tc
the Importance of having these pc
titions signed up promptly and liber-
ally even if no recall election should
be ordered, because the Governor or
the nonpartisans may suddenly bring
on an election in which the independ-
ents could have no chance to get
vote on discredited state officials. .
The committee states that it is
neither safe nor wise to depend on
getting such large number of sigma
-nures as are needed for an election in
few days after the Devils Lake con-
vention because seeding will interfere
materially with the circulating Of pc
titions in April.
According to the plan of procedure
adopted by the committee of Twenty
one, it is not planned to file any re-
call petitions until the Devils Lake
convention has decided the question of
whether or not to have a recall cleo
ticn, and if so, against whom of the
eight people named in the petition, the
recall shall be invoked. ~

IT'S TIME TO WAKE UP

What gaineth a man if the barre
of -four he needs sells for Two Dol
lars and he has only thirty cents tt
his name.
And is looking for job and CAM
find one.
The people of this country right
now, today, are facing situation that
calls for common sense.
And use common sense.
In every city, town and hamlet ir
the land, people are telling each other
what the country needs.
But you know and I know that what
the people of the United States need
most of all just now, is Common
Sense.
If you are a shoemaker, and the
furniture worker, the weaver, the hat
ter, the machinist, the miner
And the producer of hundred other
commodities you buy during the year
stop buying the shoes you make.
And by so doing throw you out of
work. -.-~ -.~
How are you going to get the money
to buy the things they produce.
You've got to help consume what
the other fellow produces and he must
help to consume what you produce.
To-day the country is in good shape
the troubles exist mostly in the
minds of the people. y
BUT if we do not wake up now and
start to do more buying, it won't be
long before our troubles will be real.
Nations like individuals can make
themselves sick by worrying when
there is no cause for worry. s......
An ounce Of preventative is worth a
pound of cure and the way to prevent
an industrial breakdown in the near
future is to -..-.y
Buy what the other fellow produces
and start doing it today.
The excuse Of high prices has faded
away. ~ .. Y
The cut-price advertisement is re-
putable merchandise fill the pages of
the daily newspapers.
Read them today and buy tomor-
row the things you have put off buy
ing SO long.
Keep this fact everlastingly before
you. -
If you don't buy what the other fel-
low produces. he cannot buy what you
produce.

NEEDY FARMERS !.
T0GET MONEY

One million dollars will be loaned to
| farmers in drouth-stricken areas OF
North Dakota of the $2,000,000 appro.
priated by congress to be loaned to
farmers for the purchase of see, the
balance being apportioned to Montana,
according to information received at
the Office of the North Dakota Farm
Bureau Federation in Fargo
The funds will be administered by
C. W.. Warburton, agronomist with
the bureau of plant industry, who will
arrive in Fargo with two assistants
Monday. Headquarters for the two
states will be maintained in this city.
President U. l. Burdick has rendered
the use of the state farm bureau office
here to Mr.. Warburton. .l.
These loans will be made through
the county agents, according to infor-
nation received from Congressman
George M. Young and the farm
bureau executive committees will act
as advisory committees for the county
agents in the farm bureau counties.
No information has been received as
to how the fund will be handled in
counties having no county agent.
The bill making the appropriation
which was introduced by Senator
: Gronna, provides:
"That the secretary of agriculture
is hereby authorized, for the crop. OF
1921, to make advances or loans to
farmers in the drouth-stricken areas
of the United States, where he shall
find that special need for such assist
ance exists, for the purchase OF wheat,
oats, barley and flax seed for seed
purposes only, to produce such seed
and sell same to such farmers. A first
lien on the. crop to be produced from
seed obtained through a loan, advance
or sale made under this section shall
in the discretion Of the secretary of
agriculture, be deemed sufficient
therefor. The total amount Of such
advances, loans or sales to any one
farmer shall not exceed the sum OF
$780, :.
The proposition of applying for fed
eral aid for drouth- stricken areas was
first broached at farm bureau meet
ing held at Minot last January when
a resolution introduced by NJ. 0. Hal!
Of Mohall was unanimously adopted
asking for federal aid for the purchase
OF Se0u ny ldI1AOlS III Viz ~
Counties in the state in which the
local farm bureau will function in dis
tributing the funds include bottlneau,
Hettinger, divide, Mountrail, Pierce:
Slope, Ward, Mckenzie: Morton, Nc
Lean, Grant, Kidder, Mercer, Golden
Valley, Emmons. Williams and west
ern Stutsman. Renville and Burlelgh
counties have farm bureau organiza-
tions but no county agents, and the
other counties in the drauth-stricken
area, which have no county agents. m
Henry, Rolette. Sioux, Dunn. Billings,
Sheridan, Stark, Logan. Adams and
Mcintosh. All Of the farm bureau
counties have wired their congress-
man asking for federal aid. !,
It has been calculated. that the fund
Of $1,000, 900 will provide seed loans
for more than $500 farmers Of North
Dakota if each secures the maximum
allowance Of $500.
