Duluth, Minn.. June so.-Two
juries having disagreed as to wheth-
.er the United States railroad admin
istration was responsible for the con-
Migration on October IL, 1918, which
destroyed, among millions of dollars
of property, that OF G. A. Rindquist,
farmer, another jury was selected in

ages for the loss of his crops, his farm
and personal belongings on his prop
erty between Culver and Alborn, on
the Duluth. Missabe and Northern.
The contention Of the defense at the
previous trials was that the conhag-
ration arose by ian act Of God. in the
form of a hurricane of unprecedented
velocity and extent" and was not due
to any act of the defendant, but to
some unknown source.

OF James Stilman
Resumed In Court

Poughkeepsie. n. Y. June 3d.
Cross examination Of James A. Still
man, wealthy New York banker, was
resumed today in the divorce suit he
instituted against the former Fiji
Potter.
The plaintiff abandoned his at
tempts to evade photographers, which
proved unsuccessful, although he en-
tered and departed from the building
through a cellar trap door. This
morning he alighted from a taxicab at
the front entrance of the building in
which the case is being tried, and
with his attorneys walked swiftly
through the door.
Mrs. Stillman was already inside,
conferring with her attorneys. It was
reported that they would switch their
quizzing Of Mr.. Sillman to his rela-
tions with his wife. as he refused yes
terday to answer any questions re-
garding his conduct with other women
on the ground that it might tend to
incrimirate him. Today. it was said,
John E. Mack. guardian ad Item for
Guy Stillman. would question the
banker along lines bearing on the
paternity of the child, whom Mr..
Stiliman branded as illegitimate.

assurance that the administration and
the people responsible for it, had re-
covered from the financial debauch of
the past four years. had abandoned
the extravagant and impractical and
socialistic theories ana plans which
propaganda had SO persistently and
insidiously instilled into their minds,
and which were responsible for the

association did endorse and recon-

association never did and does not en-

THAT the bankers Of the state
have remained silent to a degree in
compatible with self-respect for more
than four years under the abuse and
vilifcation of the so-called leaders Of
the Nonpartisan league and have en-
dured the most annoying and humili-
ating business and political conditions
ever foisted upon any state In the un-
ion. solely because of their desire to
assist and enable the farmers of the
state to solve their own problems in
their own way, but that during that
time no honest effort has been made
by those In power to solve the farm
ers' nor any other problems, but have
devoted their entire time and energies
to fostering prejudice. to setting up
straw men Of their own and demand

The resolution defining the attitude
of the North Dakota Bankers asso-
citation toward the present political
conditions within the state was adopt
ed unanimously at the closing session
of the convention today. 1t was read
and was adopted separate
ly, 50 that there would be no oppor-
tunity for Nonpartisan league officials
and workers to. make the charge that
the resolution was slipped over" in
the midst of other business. The reso-
luton in full follows:
Whereas. in December, 1920, the
members of this association, and sew
eral committees thereof, openly and
publicly endorsed, approved and ex-
tended aid to the state administration
in the sale of certain state bonds
which were then and are yet being
offered to the public in. the markets
Of the country.
"And whereas, in December, 1920,
the members of this association as
sembled at Bismarck, In response to
the invitation of the state administra-
ton, publicly endorsed certain regula-
tions then made by the administra-
the funds of the Bank of North Da-
kota, and the public funds concerned
Herewith.
"And Whereas, this attitude and
action Of the members Of the North
Dakota Bankers association has been
misunderstood and misconstrued, even
among the membership and in some
quarters both within and without the
state, it has been claimed that It
amounted to an endorsement and ap-
proval Of the present state admins
tration. .u.
"And Whereas, conditions have be-
come such that it is no longer right
or proper for any citizen to refrain
from expressing his opinion upon the
soundness or otherwise Of the course
being pursued by those whom the
fortunes of politics have placed in
control Of state affairs; that there is
no longer middle or neutral ground
upon which any citizen or body of
citizens having the best interests Of
the stats ataheart, may stand aloof.
hoping that others may find and ap-
ply the remedy ror present unsatsfac-
tory conditions, and that he or they
may either profit or avoid responsible
ity by a neutral attitude, and there
fore the membership of this associa-
ton should here and now go on rec
ord and declare itself either for or
against present political conditions
and In favor of or opposed to con-
tinuing inaposver Those Responsible for
the same. y
l + Therefore, Be It Resolved, that the
, members of the North Dakota Bank
ers' association in convention assem-.
bled do hereby publicly declare:
II. That their endorsements OF
/. the regulations and methods of the
administration and of the Bank o1
North Dakota in December, 1920, wa,
made solely for the purpose of pro.
tecting the credit of the state in 81

Walnut Has Many Advantages.

Walnut Is a good tree to plant
along highways, because 1t grows its
branches high, which let's in the sun
and allows the rapid drying out of the

eases, and, with the exception Of one
or two caterpillars, Insects will leave

On account Of Its peculiar taste
horses and other animals will not nib
