sion Of the County Commissioners as
heldSat the court house.
Congressman-eiecl O., b. Burtness

ern0on's program. and important
business matters were scheduled to
CONS up following his. address. Among
them are the election of officers and
the.Heport Of the resolutions commit
tee was expected to be given late to-
day. according to L. l.. Russell Of
NewA Rockford, president Of the assoc
citation.
The program. which originally was

ciuded tomorrow morning in order

A large number Of county commits
sioners arrived here this morning to
attend the remainder Of the session,
n there are now more than 200 men,
representing practically all counties
OF the state in attendance at the
meeting.
Says Taxes Exorbitant.
Mr.. Wallace told the commissioners
this morning that there must be some
let-up on taxation. Taxes-both fed
eral n state today are SO high that
they are running away with the pub
lie, Mr.. Wallace said, and he stated
that he believed the burden had al
most reached the breaking point. He
declared that he had 3 tended many
meetings Of tax officials and experts
In several parts of the country, but so
far had not heard M really practical
suggestion for the reduction of taxes
or expenditures.
MIR. Wallace declared that taxes are
increasing far faster than population,
land acres assessed. or wealth He
drew attention to the change in as
s%essrnent from rs per eel to 100 per
cent of valuation, and said hat the
total assessed valuation had increased
from about $I00, 600, 900 in 1900 to
about $500. 900, 900 in 1920 in North
Dakota. and that taxes are being lev
led on that amount today. The peo-
pies right to tax themselves to such
an extent should be restricted, he de-
clared.
Mr.. Wallace urged the commission
ers to consider f%avorably the pro-
posed county assessor law, which is
designed for the purpose of keeping
politics out Of taxation activities. The
county auditors Of the state have al
ready gon on record as favoring the
proposed law.

DIVIDE SHERIFF
IS RE-MSTALLED
Nonpartisan Family Squab-
BILE is Apparently All
Patched Up Now.

Crosby, N. D., Jar. l9.-Sheriff Otto
Peterson assumed his duties as sheriff
OF Divide county again Monday and
to all appearances the rather interest
ing squabble between Nonpartisan
league county officials is over.
Sheriff Peterson was forced to re-
sign some 10 days 6 by States, At
torney Olaf sBraateljen and CLERK of
Court r. w. Frazier who claimed to
have unearthed irregularities in Peter
sons office. After the manner of the
second act Of a fair melodrama. the
states attorney and clerk of court
had a showdown with Sheriff Peter
son at 2 a. m. and agreed not to have
him prosecuted If he resigned. 1t
seems that there were certain minor
irregularities in Peterson's books and
on the spur of the moment decided he
had best quit office. The same day the
county commissioners, who were
charged with playing in with Braate-
lien. and Frazier, met and appointed
w. J.. Hayes, the county coroner to
the position. For a few hours the in
cident seemed closed. Then Peterson
began to inquire into the matter more
carefully and was advised by attorneys
that he had been guilty of no crime
and had permitted himself to be
"bluffed out of office" '
4 Peterson Comes Back.
Peterson decided that his back was
against a wall SO he started to circu-
late recall petitions, seeking the recall
of the states attorney, the newly ap-
pointed sheriff. the clerk of court and
the county treasurer who also had
lined up against Peterson. The county
convention of the Nonpartisan league
was held and the matter came before
the meeting. The powers that be in
the league organization here tried to
settle the dispute and appointed a
committee consisting of O. M. Hector,
chairman, w. L. Peterson, X. l..
Stoke, Carl Ebbeson, Otto Jensen,
Martin Monson, G. c. Gilbertson, C. e.
Carlson and John Carlson to investi-
gate the matter. The findings of the
committee, made public the next day,
were to the effect that the states at
torney and clerk of court had acted
within the law" but that the county
commissioners t'acted with too much
haste." The committee further recon-
mended that Peterson be re-instated
as sheriff. &

Chicago policemen in wholesale lots
was presaged in official circles today

tigation of violations of the prohibit

connection with whisky running and
bootlegging.
Chief Fitzmorris has announced his
intention of dismissing every man i'm
plicated in liquor deals and claims he
has list of men that can replace hun
dreds of policemen if it becomes nee,
essary to dismiss that many. In a
statement issued last night the chief
termed prohibition a failure until the
liquor was cut off at its source OF
supply.
Yesterday hundreds of policemen
were transferred and rea ssigned, and
the transfer order, it was predicted
will hit the detective bureau in a day
or two. Four police sergeants now
out on bonds in connection with the
alleged extortion of bribes in liquor
cases have been questioned by states
attorneys. 1t is believed number OF
other officers have been implicated
Harry l.. Brin, assistant states attor
ney, was expected to begin an exte1
sive investigation into this angle OF
the case.
Chief Fitzmorris has expressed thai
others outside the police department
including several politicians, have
been implicated in liquor deals, anG
federal authorities today began an in
vestigation of this report, promising
the chief the fullest cooperation in
unearthing the alleged law violators

GENERAL RAIL STRIKE
HINGES ON BALLOTS
CAST BY employees
(Rv Associated Press>

CHICAGO. Sept 26.-Whether a
general strike shall be called by the
six powerful railroad unions may be
decided within the next two weeks, il
was indicated today as officials of the
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen,
gathered here to count the 100000
strike ballots of their organization cast
to decide whether the men will ac-
cept the wage cut instituted recent
ly by the United States railroad la
Dor board
Next Monday officials of four more
unions, the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers, the Order of Railroad
Conductors, the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen and Enginemen, and
the Switchmen's Union of North Amer
lea will meet here to count strike
ballots cast by their 259000 members.
Await Announcement
More than 100000 shopcraft en-
ployes already have voted by an over.
whelming majority to strike rather
than to accept the wage cut. according
to figures announced a week ago, but
on advice of their leaders are waiting
for the labor board to complete its
announcement of next working agree
ments, and for the other unions to
decide whether they shall support
the strike.
Owing to a disagreement between
unions as to the form the strike ballot
was to take, the trainmen withdrew
from the general meeting here, July l
to 5. and sent out a separate ballot,
while the other organizations voted on
joint ballot.

POLISH PRESIDENT
NARROWLY ESCAPES
HAND OF ASSASSIN
(By Associated Press)

LEMBERG, Sept 26.-General Jo-
seph Pilsudski, president of the Polish
republic, narrowly escaped death by
assassination here last night.
He was entering an automobile in
City Hall square on his way to a
theatre after attending banquet in
his honor when three shots were fired
at him. General Pilsudski was not
injured but Count Grabowski, who was
accompanying him, was wounded in
the leg.
The president directed his chauffeur
to drive to a hospital and after being
assured that Count Grabowski's wound
was not serious, insisted on going to
the theatre as he had intended. He
was enthusiastically cheered by the
audience when he entered the theatre.
The would-be assassin attempted
suicide but was arrested before he
could end his own life.

H0WAT IS DEFEATED
IN EFFORT TO FORCE
VOTE ON CONVENTION
(Rv Associated Pressl

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 26-Efforts
of supporters of Alexander Howat,
president of the Kansas miners, to
force a vote in the convention of the
United Mine Workers of America on
President Lewiss recommendation
that Howat be required to order
strikers back to work were blocked to-
day by " P. Murray, who, as presiding
officer, declared he would not permit
the convention to be stampeded into
making its decision.
The move came early in the forenoon
session and was renewed at intervals
as Lewis's supporters continued to ad-
dress to delegates seeking to impress
that he issue was whether the union
required its own men to fulfill their
contracts.
Complaint was also made from the
floor that delegates were being
gagged" and William Green. inter-
national secretary, was delayed for Is
minutes by the disorder when he
sought to speak.
Debate in Prospect.
Bitter debate was in prospect when
the convention resumed consideration
of the cases. the anti-administration
element contending Howat's opposi-
ton to ordering the men back to work,
was justified because the operators
sought to change working conditions.
Administration delegates, supporting
President John L. Lewis, denied this
contention, asserting that the issue
was whether the union required it's
own men TO fulfill their contracts.

LEAGUE DISCUSSES
ECONOMIC PRESSURE
FOR OUTLAW NATIONS
(By Associated Press)

GENEVA. Sept. 26.-Methods of ap-
plying the economic weapon of the
league of nations against a country
which violates the provisions of the
covenant of the league came before
the assembly of the league this morn
ing when the blockade committee sub
mitted its report.
The committee found it was impos-
sible for the league to decide before
hand and in detail the various steps
of an economic, commercial and finan-
cial nature that should be taken In
each case. 1t proposed that the coun-
Gil of the league make recommenda-
tions to the members as to a plan for
joint action when necessity should
arise.
Interruption of diplomatic relations
would first be limited TO the with
drawal of the heads of diplomatic mis-
sions. The. committee held, however,
that while consular relations might
be maintained, if prolonged applica-
tion of economic pressure was neces-
sary, it should progressively be made
more stringent.
