Paddock Speaks to Nonpartisans
at Meeting Here

The red flag issue is dead ono
in North Dakota politics, Fl. A. Pad
dock, secretary Of the Industrial Com

night before Nonpartisans in Odd Eel
lows hall
Mr.. Paddock. in speaking on the
forthcoming recall election, took up
the phamplet issued by the Joint Cam p.
Daign Committee entitled Reasons
For the Recall" and discussed the is
sues. He declared that the issue Of
socialism, as we'll as the red flag was
a by-gone issue and asserted that the
industrial program and its phases was
the sole issue before the people.
He attacked the testimony of J. w.
Brinton before the house investigat-
ing committee and in the perjury
trial in district court here, pointing
out where he said Brinton's stories
differed. In one case, he said BrintOn
had said O. r. Lofthus asked him to
give $1,000 check to cover up a
shortage in the Scandinavian-Amer
can bank in a conversation in which
NJ. w. Thatcher and William Lemke
took part and in his perjury trial he
said that Lemke and Thatcher were
not in conversation with him in Lof-
thus presence on the matter.

SURVIVOR OF
INDIAN FIGHT
VISITING HERE

Halvor Torgeson, Of Homan, Cava-
lier county, who visited in the state
capitol yesterday knows just exactly
what an Indian massacre is like. He
survived the New Ulm massacre at
Birch Coulee, Minnesota, in 1862. In
spite of the experiences suffered at
that time and arduous' labor as a pi-
oneer of the Northwest, Torgeson is
hale and hearty. ''..''..' '.''.'''.''
Telling of the massacre, Mr.. Torge-
SON said he escaped by crouching all
night under an overhanging turf on a
creek bank. which he reached after he
had been shot in the leg. He heard
the Indians. shouting and running
about all night. The next morning he
crawled four miles to safety. Mr..
iorgeson came to North Dakota in
1884. ...
Crops in Cavalier county are good,
except for some damage done by heat
and hail, he said.

Accident is Held in Police
Court

A formal charge of transporting in
toxicating liquor was placed today

noon at o'clock.
The new charge was filed before
Police Magistrate eastman this morn
ing when Thomas was brought into
his court upon the coroner's jury

serious charge than transporting
liquor will be filed depends upon the
decision of the states attorney when
he returns to the city. ,.....

GOVERNOR IS
BACK FROM WEST
Finds Financial Conditions Same
as Here

Governor Frazier has returned from
ten-days trip through the west. He
spoke at Standpoint, Idaho; Tacoma,
Yakima, Prosser and Bellingham,
Washington, and returned by way Of
the Canadian Pacific railroad. ..
The Governor said that he spoke
before the state grange meeting in
Tacoma and at farmers meetings in
the other cities. He said he found
farmers in those sections Interested
in farmers organizations and in the
Nonpartisan league.
Financial conditions appear to be
about the same in the agricultural
sections of the coast states as they
are in the Northwest plains states,
the Governor said. Farmers in the
fruit belts in Washington have good
crops and are hoping for good prices
because of damage done by cold wealth

CONTINUE HEAVY
Far West Witnesses Testify
Before Interstate Commerce
Commission

Washington. Aug. 19.-Heavy grain
movements will continue this fall in
spite OF high freight rates and low
market prices. Fl. w. Picket, Salt Lake

Commerce Commission today. Farm

loss, he said, to meet long-deferred
debts. The testimony was given In
connection with the investigation on
grain and hay rates in western states
Unless carriers reduce the rates on
grain, however, the movement will be
curtailed greatly after this year be-
cause many farmers are abandoning
their farms, Mr. Picket said. In cal
culating future rates the commission
