the great, strong nation that it is to-
day without it, but in the future it is
esirable that there be- homogeneous
America. one flag. one people, one
language. There are reasons why. be-
cause Of mistakes in the past, this
ideal condition can never be fully real
lied, but it should be made as nearly
so as possible in the future.
Those who come South are easiy

their children mix with, know but one
language, one nationality and ne flag.
II is here where genuine loyalty is
personified.

THE HIP POCKET DEFENSE.


The hip pocket Defense is a dis.
grace to our criminal procedure. Au'
derers troop along the highways d

the juries as justification Of their red
handed crimes.
Time and again it happens that ths
killer swears he saw the victim b
slew reach for the hip pocket q
though that victim was unarmed
The hip pocket plea is fraudulel
because it is seldom, indeed, that any
gun-toter carries his gun there 4
would be almost as reasonable g
tense to say one was in the act q
reaching for his hat in his vest poek'S
Our reformers are moving heas''

and other crimes, and this very LegF
lature is considering most extraof
binary change in the laws to enIoiu
prohibition, when, after all, the o9'
standing crime in the country IS nom

tect the sanctity of human life y

St. Augustine, Fla--With only a

close up the selection of his cabinet,
President Harding is giving his atten-

and to the preparation of his inaugu-

The chance that changes will be
made now in the cabinet personnel is
considered remote, although Mr.. Hard

ing last minute shifts are easily with
in the range of possibility.
There have been published reports
that Herbert Hoover might decline,
but they manifestly are not credited
by Mr.. Harding and his advisers.
Another selection understood to
have been decided on is that Of
George B. Christian, jr., to be secre-
tary to the President. Mr.. Christian
has been Mr.. Harding's private sec
rotary since he entered the senate
six years ago, and although there has
been no formal announcement, every
indication has pointed to his reten-

UNCOVER AFRAID
AGAINST FARMERS
Federal indictments Obtained
in minneapolis Against Ser
vice Company Officials.
WAS A GIGANTIC CONSPIRACY
Government Declares That Concern
Got $3.50, 900 From Farmers Illegal
Iy-operations Covered p States

Minneapolis. Minn.-Charging that
a gigantic conspiracy was formed pri-
or to January 1, 1915, which, through
use of the mails, defrauded thousands
of Northwestern farmers of more than
4 million dollars, federal officials an
nounced a secret indictment obtained
October 8, 1920, against eleven owners
and employees of the Consumers Ser
vice and Supply Company of Mime
apolis and Chicago. Warrants charg-
ing conspiracy to use the mails to de-
fraud are now in the hands Of govern
ment operatives and several Of the
indicated men are in custody, or out
on bail, which in each case has been
set at $4,000.
Those indicted are:
s. P LesseIyoung, president and
originator of the company
J. B. Burkholder, president Burk-
holder Lumber Company.
Edward Shoemaker, Milwaukee, col
lector.
S. T. Poole, office manager.
William Crawford, former Mime
apolis attorney, Chicago.
Half a dozen men employed as
statesmen also are named IN the indict-
ments
Thu indictment recites that the de-
PENDANTS sold service contracts" to
farmers in twenty-five mid-weste-n
states, the farmers paying a fee rang
ing from S13 to II a year for services
and the company, in return, claiming
that it could buy more direct from rhe
factory, eliminating jobbers, wholesal-
ers and retailers on certain lines of
goods.
Most of the contract holders paid
part cash and gave notes for the bal
ance of the membership, the amounts
varying according to the ability Of The
farmer to make his first payment.
The Indictment further alleges the
Consumers Service and Supply Com
pany transferred these notes to t;,s
Burkholder Lumber Company, which
in turn gave them to the Creditors
Protective Bureau for collection, and
that S. P. Le3selyoung is head Of
both the service company and the pro
tective bureau; that the transfer was
not bona fide and was made for the
purpose Of facilitating collection and
causing the maker to not present any
original defenses he may have had On
