LEAGUE LEADERS AT WAR

THE. recent Waterloo which the
non-partisans received in Ncrth Da-
kota has resulted in a breakup of the
leaders, as will be seen from the fol-
lowing Minneapolis dispatch Of Dec.
fifth:
"The war over future policies of
the Nonpartisan league wa in full
swing today.
arthur G. Townley and William
Lemke loomed as the chiefs of the
opposing forces.
"Townley will go before North Da-
kota leaguers and fght for a new pol
icy. The "new" policy will be his
original policy. He wants the league
to abandon political office and merely
endorse candidates hereafter.
"This was announced exclusively
by the United Press Saturday. 1t
brought prompt and caustic denials
from William Lemke and A. A. Lied
erbach, state chairman of the league
in North Dakota.
"Townley, Lemke and Frank B.
Wood comprise the national executive
committee. Townley and Wood are
known to stand hand in hand.
"Townlev is now in the Jackson
county Jail. serving a 5O-day sentence
for violation Of the Minnesota espion-
age act. He will be free early in
February.
Precinct conventions of the lea
guers in North Dakota will be held
in February.
"Townley will make no public
statement until the convention is call
ed. He will submit his plan to the
convention and abide by the decision.
"Lemke is expected to fight the
plan with all his power. 1t is known
that he has desired to run for gov
ernor of the fickertail state or the
senatorship. He is the leader of the
element that hopes to continue the
league as a political party in North
Dakota and Minnesota. Townely has
always opposed this.
Lemke and L~eiderbach declared the
league leaders were united" Townley
said nothing about it,"

MISSIONARIES IN CHINA

THE Methodist Episcopal church
is holding a national conference at
Detroit, Mich, and we give below
an extract from an address by Bishop
Homer C. Stuntz, which has the ring
of prophesy in it. The work Of the
Christian missionary has been some
times lightly touched upon by states
men, but the work of these mission
aries has had much to do, and will
continue to be of vital Importance
in the making of world history and
the peaceful solution of international
problems in the far east. The bishop
said:
eve are playing at a task which
must be seer in its true proportions
and undertaken with reasoned plans
commensurate with its >astEess. Our
centenary plans but indicate some
slight advance over the beginnings
already made. Let us, here highly
resolve upon a plan that will make
Asia Christian.
"See how America has gene for
ward step by step. mot knowing as
indeed the majority Of her statesmen
have not known, that they were being
led of Almighty God. The Louisiana
P~urchasee the far-sighted work of
Jackson Lee and Rev. Whitman on
the Northwestern Coast that gave lis
Oregon and Washington; then the Al
aska Purchase. Much later ,i,npalled
by the same Hand, this nation oc-
cupied the Philippines, and annexed
the Hawaiian Islands. Other nations
have been pushed by one motive or
another into acquiring immense hold
ings in the Pacific or it's comblunicat-
ing seas and CULTS.
"And all the time, in their immem-
orial calm, China and Japan and Corea
have pursued the ever tenor Of their
oriental way, and today face us from
the eastern side of this vast Basin
with over one-half of the total popu-
lation of the world, not more than the
merest fraction of the percentage of
their multiplied millions owning the
sway of Christ over their lives or
destinies.
Therefore the nations which face
this Basin must help or nightly him
der the triumph of the program of
righteousness which is the very heart
of Christ's Kingdom. And the churches
OF Christ in the nations facing the
Pacific Basin should be swift to see
the vast strategy of our Captain, and
leap to the tasks which it IMPOSES"

sent to various points in the country
this week for collection. Personal
are also travelling the
county this week threatening farmers
with suit if the checks and notes are
not paid. The Leaders advice to the
farmers is not to pay and to give no
attention to the threats. As a matter
of fact, we do not believe the checks
and notes a be collected. They were
obtained by fraud and no value re-
ceived was ever given. In case OF
the checks, payment was stopped by
the makers as solicitors for the
League told them they could do SO.
The notes as a rule are for second
year dues and the solicitors gave the
signers to understand they could can
eel the notes and withdraw from the
League if they decided to do %. All
these notes and checks have been
sold by the League to scalpers and it
is these third parties who are nov
trying to force collection. The way
the League people have betrayed the
farmers is shown in this thansfer of
the checks and notes, the idea being
that by such transfer the promises
Of the League solicitors could be slid
around. 1t is true that ordinarily the
verbal promises between maker and
receiver of notes do not count as be-
tween third parties, but it will be so
easy to prove fraud in these check
and note transactions that The Leader
has no hesitancy in advising farmers
not TO pay them and that the threats
of suit are only bluffs. Judging from
the commission that the scalpers have
offered collection agencies IT, collect
the checks and notes, and assuming
that the scalpers who bought the pa
per get something out of it too for
their investment, it is quite doubtful
if the league organization to whom
the notes and checks were originally
given got much more than 75c on ST
for each note or check they sold. The
incident is just one more link in the
chain Of evidence proving the shame
less way farmers who trusted the
League and believed it was their
friend have been betrayed by the men
who first and last thought seems to
have been chow to get the money!"
Even if the promises of League solicit
tors counted for nothing the sense of
common honesty and the square deal
should have promoted the League
heads to have returned checks and
notes to the farmers when the farm.
ers notified the League that they
wished to cancel them, but instead of
that it seems the League officials just
bundled up all such checks and notes
in bales and sold them to scalpers for
what they could get for them and now
the Scalpers are out here in the coun-
try trying to collect what they can
out of the farmers through threats
and bluffs of law suits. The Leaders
advice is to tell the collectors to go
jump in the lake.-Long Prairie, MINI.

HELD UP

TWO of the big Chicago dailies
recently started a gift enterprise Of
a lottery character to increase their
subscription, but the enterprise was
cut short by a federal officer stepping
in and warning the newspapers con-
Quoting the schemes that if continued
they would be prosecuted under the
anti-lottery law. The laws against
lotteries were originally enacted for
the purpose of helping to check the
gambling habit, which was being cul-
tivated by the old Louisiana lottery
and similar schemes.
There is a strong sentiment through
out the country for a stricter enforce
ment Of the law, which is being con-
stantly violated in little local or COM
munity lotteries. From the following
it will be seer that Attorney General
Payne is taking the matter up and
parties instituting lotteries will be
subject to prosecutions:
Charging that the sale of two auto
mobiles, n last month at the Cath
Ole bazaar and the other last week at
the Shrine barn dance, were lotteries
under the state law, States Attorney
L. E. Waggoner has commenced re-
plevin proceedings to recover the two
automobiles. They were seized by
the sheriff from Nels Rhumberg, who
held the lucky number at tho Catholic
bazaar, and Mrs. C. F. Culver. who
was similarly the winner at the Eli
Rad festivities. The ease vii! be
tried at the January term of the
circuit court, the states attorney ron
tending that under the law the auto.
mobiles became the property Of the
state and the money from the sale
of them be turned into the state
school fund.
The action came as a result of the
activity of Attorney General Byron
s. Payne, which commenced Novem-
Der Is, when he defined lotteries in q
public Interpretation Of the law. His
ruling then was on q quarter section

THERE will perhaps he some criti-

THERE will perhaps he some criti-
cism regarding the sale of the COM
munity house bonds which took place
Tuesday evening of this week. Such
is Of course to be expected and is well
coined in the majority of cases by
officials who have the government of a
city, county, state or nation in hand.
Constructive criticism is necessary to
a healthy state of affairs. But if every
citizen Of Milbank knows facts there
will be little or no adverse comment.
The vote by which the bond issue was
passed could well be taken by the city
administration as a vote Of approval
for the proposition. The city council
and r bound by the decisions
Of the public. The public voiced their
decision in the matter and left it to
the city council to make such plans
for the same Al they saw fit, and with
the understanding that the building
was to be built when conditions war
ranted the construction at the lowest
possible cost. The same agreements
bind the council at this time. The
law provides that the bonds shall be
disposed Of before one year shall
elapse.
The bond market is very favorable
at this time and the city disposed OF
the bonds at q good interest rate. The
money is in Grant county, or will be
within a short time, where the city
officials can secure it without delay.
More than this, the money has been
put into circulation. The banks of
the city have taken the money with
the purpose of easing the market here
in the county. Farmers who have
been pressed by notes and mortgages
will be able to secure a loan. Basi-
ness men who need money for a few
months will find the money market
easier. Business conditions in Grant
county should be materially improved
with the addition Of $4,000 cash to
its credit.
That the present city administration
will use car and good judgment in
the matter of city affairs we firmly
believe. Mayor Nelson in the few
months Of his public service, has been
back Of several progressive and praise
worthy movements. We believe that,
with the weight of public approval
and cooperation behind him, Milbank
will progress as never before. Mr..
Nelson is q businessman in the city,
has business interests and connections.
All Of the city council are men who
are well known, who are businessmen
and who own property. Surely they
can be depended upon to do the very
best in their judgment for the future
Of Milbank and, Of course, their busi>
ness. It Is out Of reason to think
.otherwise. They expect to live here,
and continue their business after their
Terms expire.

tion nor its works, except as a repre-
.szehtative Of the citizens Of Milbank.
