HIS APPEAL FAILS
Conviction Upheld by
Minnesota Supreme Court.
n. 2. L. Chief Charged With
1Discouraging EnIistments.

st. Paul, April 29.-The state su-
preme court today upheld the jackson
county court in the conviction of A.
{. Townley, president. and Joseph Gill
bert, former organizer of the National
Nonpartisan league.
They were charged with conspira cy
to discourage enlistments during the
war, found guilty and sentenced to
serve ninety days each in the county
Jail. The case was appealed. Mean
time, Gilbert was convicted and is
serving sentence to the state peni-
tentiary from Goodhue county.
Townley's case proba bly, will be ap-
pealed to the United States supreme
court.
Townley and Gilbert were found
guilty July 12, 1919. by a jury in the
Jackson county district court. They
were sentenced by Judge Dean to
serve ninety days in Jail
Charges against ToWnley and Gill
bert were based on speeches the two
men delivered in behalf of the Nom
partisan league in Jackson and other
Minnesota counties. Appeal for a new
trial was denied by Judge Dean or
July 81, 1920, and the case was APP
pealed to the state supreme court in
August, 1920.
Townley was reported in Broken
Bow, Neb., last night. His counsel
here could not say what would be the
next move of the convicted pair. Gill
bert is serving a years sentence in the
Goodhue county Jail at Red Wing
Mimi. for conviction on an indictment
charging him with interference with
enlistments in violation of a Minnesota
statute which was upheld S constitu-
tional by the United States supreme
court. He was recently denied a par
/ don.
In their appeal to the state supreme
court, Townley and Gilbert charged
errors in the trial court, but the SUI
| preme court found that none of the
errors of law of which they complain
resulted in their being deprived Of
amy of these substantia rights

Topeka Has Good Chance of
Being Highway Headquarters.
Roosevelt Highway and Mid
land Trail May Be Combined.


Topeka has an excellent chance to
become national hea dquarters for one
of the best known and most highly
advertised national highways in the
United States.
At the convention of delegates to
the National Midland Trail associa-
ton, held Thursday in Kansas City,
Mo-, it was decided to appoint the
officers of the association a commit
tee of three to consider the merging
of the Midland Trail association with
the Roosevelt Highway.
Altho there was some sentiment op-
bers of the Midland Trail association.
all have acquired a sentimental re-
gard for their organization one of the
oldest of the higi way organizations
of the United States, the general senti-
ment of the meeting, according to
Harry lines, of Topeka, who attended
as a delegate, was in favor of joining
which is already following the routing
of the Midland Trail thruout the en-
tire length of the highway.
Officers Constitute Committee.
The officers of the Midland Trail
association who constitute the COM
mittee are: George A. Bond, Kansas
City. Mo, president; DR.. R. R. Elmore,
LOUISVILLE, n.y., wee pIeSlQenI, anu
Representative r. NJ. Sawhill, Glasco,
secretary and treasurer.
Will J. Graves, of Topeka, recently
chosen manager of the Midland Trail
association, will be manager of the
merged organizations, according to the
tentative consolidation scheme, and
Topeka, Graves's home. has every op-
portunity to become the national head
quarters of the two organizations. if
proper support is forthcoming in the
way of the purchase of memberships
by Topeka people.
Topeka Men There.
Topeka men who attended the con-
vention in Kansas City included
Graves, Harry lines, representing the
Merchants association, Herbert S. Put
ney, representing the Chamber of Com
merce, and P. A. Fairbanks who is
commissioner for the Midland Trai
association in Shawnee county.
Immediate action on the merger Is
forecasted. The hackers of the Roose-
welt highway have been trying to Sc
! cure the consolidation for some, and
the favorable action of the Midland
Trail association Thursday, when dele
gates from as far east as Kentucky
and as fa- west as Utah and Nevada
were gathered, indicates to the mind:
of the Topeka men that the merger
will be accomplished, and the oppor.

DID CONTRACTORS WIN WAR?


The statement published this morn
ing to the effect that the contractors
had won the open shop war in Topeka.
will have to go for what it is WORTH
Ed Metzge, business agent for the
Carpenters union, stated today.
Metzge declined to comment on the
announcement that union and non
union men are working on the same
jobs in Topeka.
We're conducting our own cam
paign along our own lines, and it isn't
our policy to get into the newspapers
with it," Metzge said.
A flat contradiction of the state
ment credited to Thos. w. Williamson,
to the effect that "F. NJ. Spencer &
Son have twenty-five non-union car
enters and twenty-seven union car
penters at work" was made by Earl
NJ. Spencer of the firm of F. NJ.
Spencer x Son, today.
We only have ten carpenters at
work altogether" Spencer said.
They are working under the open
shop principle. We don't ask whether
they belong 20 a union or not. We
don't know about it," Spencer said.
