BY EDWARD W. PIckARD.

Ireland declines to relnquish her
place on the front page Of the worlds
news. As was predicted. De valera's
note to Premier Lloyd George merely
continued the controversy, acceptance
of the British dominion offer being
again refused and the Sim Fein argu-
ments repeated. Adherence TO the
principle of government by the consent
Of the governed was insisted upon,
and once more II was made clear that
by this Ireland means that she must
be treated as an entirely independent
nation.
Lloyd George was In Inverness.
Scotland. when the note reached him,
and the British cabinet was called up
there to formulate a reply. The min
listers were In had humor at being
forced to make the trip and the pros
pect for a conciiatory answer to the
Irish was gloomy. De Valera fore
stalled an adverse decision by the
statement that II England issued an
ultimatum war would result. OF
probably more effect was message
to the premier from the parliamentary
committee Of the Trades Union con-
gress and the national executive board
Of the Labor party, urging the govern
ment to invite representatives of the
Irish people to meet them face to face
In a conference, and declaring that 'it
would he disaster II the deep and
spontaneous feeling for peace now
pervading the two peoples was allowed
TO evaporate while their representa-
tives engaged In controversy by ex-
change Of notes."
Several hours Of debate put the
cabinet members In more cheerful
frame of mind. and a new note was
dispatched that invited De Valera to
the cabinet at Inverness on September
% for a renewed consideration of the
peace proposals. This sounded fine,
bu. there was a fly In the ointment.
The condition was imposed that II
must be understood that Ireland was
to remain in the empire. No doubt
De Valera will send delegates to Scot
land. but whether the discussion will
be fruitful so long as they are asked
to accept this compulsory stipulation
II questionable.
In a speech at Armagh Commandant
O'Duffey OF the Irish republican army
declared that south Ireland would
compel Ulster to unite with II by use
Of the boycott, and that II that failed.
lead would be used. Belfast Union
lists have accepted this as direct
challenge and are arming themselves
for the conflict. Steps are also being
taken to revive the Ulster volunteer
forces. The Ulster press is exulting
over the prospect Of a renewal Of
hostilities between the British and
Sim Fein.
Sir Horace Plunkett, one Of the
wisest Of Irishmen, sees nothing but
two Incompatible contentiOns-no
progress whatsoever towards recon-
citation. He wants a vote Of the
whole Irish people on the matter.

GERMAN TREATY

PACIFIC QUESTION INVOLVED
Apprehension Arises Over the incor.

saiiles Pact in the Document,

Washington, Sept. II. 49, Senators
rear the separate treaty with Ger
many may prove n stumbling block at
the coming disarmament congress.
Their apprehension arises over Ia.
corporation of sections Jf the treaty
of Versailles referring to American
rights In the document. They fea-
this will lead to complications when
the settlement of the Pacific and Far
East problems Is approached.
Members of the so-called irrecorcil.
able group, responsible for the defelt
of the Versailles treaty and the
League Of Nations covenant. are par.
ticuarly of this frame of mind. How.
ever welcome the separate treaty has
been TO them. they would have pre-
ferred To have seen II drafted with
out reference 10 the Paris pact and
they do not conceal this fact.
Fear U. S. Is Bound.
As the irreconcilables. represented
by Senators Johnson and Rorah. look
nj II. the incorporation Of the sections
Of the Versailles treaty virtually
makes this country party tn the
document. While they realize Ameri-
can rights In the Paris treaty must be
projected they believe that Il could
have been accomplished more effec-
lively had the sections dealing with
them been lifted bodily from IL aud
written into the German treaty ds
separate provisions without mention
Ing the Versailles treaty.
Working on the hypothesis that In
reaching their settlement Japan will
be asked 10 evacuate Shantung. the
irpconcilables point out that the
treaty will give the japanese good
argument for remaining in the rich
Chinese province.
For example. they explain. should
this country protest japanese Occur n

from Bolivia. They demanded that the
old dispute over the provinces ~
Tacna and africa. now under Chilean
administration. be placed on the
agenda Of the assembly. and that the
treaty Of 1904 between Bolivia and
chile he taken under consideration for
possible revision. The Chilean dele
cation. led by Augustln Edwards,
argued passionately against the pro
posal, urging that the league is not
competent to revise treaties unless
they are "inapplicable."
Obviously the Monroe Doctrine IL
involved In the dispute. Carlos Ara
mayo. head OF the Bolivian delega-
ton. stated that Bolivia on several
occasions had requested the United
States to examine the Bolivian.Chilean
treaty. hut the Washington govern
ment had steadfastly refused. The
South American states do not consider
themselves bound by the Monroe Doc
trine' he added. There are Il number
OF prominent Americans In Geneva
watching the proceedings. and they
are urging President Harding's adj
ministration to make known It's view
as to the competence Of the league
to intrude in Central and South
American problems in direct defiance
Of the Monroe Doctrine, pointing out
that the European states would he en-
ahlel to capitalize the petty differ
ences between the Latin-American re-
publics nv posing rs disnterested
bene factors. through which the allies
would gain concessions.
The league assembly was loath to
at the suggestion of Van karnebeek
of Holland. who had been elected
president the discussion went over TO
a later date.
Hjalmar Branting of Sweden In
Thursdays session charged that the
league had been extravagant and had
Disseminated against nations that re-
manned neutral in the war. He es-
pecially criticized the action of the
league council In giving the Aland
Islands to Finland Lord Robert
Cecil, representative Of South Africa,
defended the league against these
accusations. and then went on TO
severely criticize the purely mega
tive" position Of the United States
which he said was responsible for the
delay in the application of mandates.
The American government recently
sent notes to the allies relterating its
claim to equality with them in the dis
position Of the former possessions OF
Germany and her allies in the war.
Among the first things the assembly
did was to reject the amendment TO
the covenant proposed by Argentina.
that all sovereign states should be
members of the league unless volun-
tarily abstalning from membership.
In Buenos Aires II was believed the
temporary withdrawal of Argentina
from the league would now be abso-
lutte and permanent and that certain
other Latin-American republics might
also withdraw.

Uncle Sans troops did not have to
fire n shot in West virginia. As soon
as they entered the disturbed region
the rehelious miners submitted and
were disarmed and sent home. Quiet
came so speedily that preparations
were being made last week to send
some of the troops back to their
camps.
Meanwhile another but less serious
mine war was brewing in southern
Illinois, where the union fluor spar
miners were gathering. with arms Ia
march through Hardin county Their
detectives were the towns Of Rosi-
clare and Elizahethtown. The miners
had several clashes with deputies and
detectives. who. according to the union
officials, are creatures Of the mine OPP
orators. Governor Small ordered an
inquiry into charges Of persecution
and abuse made against the Hardin
county authorities. mine officials and
guards. The trouble ere involves
both wages and unionism. and. as In
West Virginia, is Of long standing.

Appeal from Minnesota Con-

The petition by attorneys for A. C.
Townley for consideration Of an ap-
peal from the Minnesota supreme
court was formally presented to the
United States supreme court in Wash
ington today. The court also re-
ceived a brief by James E. Markham,
assistant attorney general. No oral
argument was allowed, and the court
probably will give a ruling on the
petition in two or three weeks.
If the petition is granted, the Town
ley case will be considered on appeal
and will be set for formal argument.
Final disposition of the case will be
postponed for a year or more, and
meanwhile Mr.. Townley will be out
on bail. If the petition is denied,
Mr.. Townley at once will be called
on to begin serving his sentence of
80 days in the Jackson county Jail.

on the same charge, of conspiring to

LEONARD MERRICK is
WELL KNOWN AUTHOR
His Novel, "Conrad in Quest of His
Youth" Picturized

Leonard Merrick, who wrote "Con-
rad in Quest of His Youth, the new
Paramount picture starring Thomas
Meighan which will be shown at the
Orpheum theatre, next Wednesday
and Thursday, is one Of the most rep
resentative of contemporary English
authors. He has written numerous
short stories and novels and his pen
is still busy. One Of his most recent
novels is "Worldlings", which has re-
ceived the praise of critics. Many of
his stories are rich in the atmosphere
of theatrical and Bohemian life in
London, and student artists, writer's,
actors and musicians figure promi-
nently in them.
Two Of his best known short stories
are "Whisperings About Women" and
"The Man Who Understood Women"
and "The Actor Manager" is another
of his best novels. Other stories,
such as Conrad in Quest of His
YOUTH" are Of philosophical nature
and have proven very popular with
the public. In the picture Mr.. Meig-
hans leading woman is Margaret
Loomis, an actress Of signal talents.

Norway, n, a.; TI1 Xprii y, Hs' 1877. IT, II He came
to America in 1893 and settled in
Buxton, N. D. He came emptyhand-
ed and had to make his own living
from the very first day he saw the
Red River valley. But his immediate
objective was not moneymaking for
the purpose of boarding his savings.
He knew he needed an education and
he started to build from the ground
up. He worked his way through
the common schools, through May
vile Normal, through Wisconsin
University, and then graduated from
the law department of the University
Of North Dakota.
While successful in his profession
and in comfortable circumstances,
Mr.. Nestos is rich in greater things
than dollars and cents. He has
wealth really worth while in his edu-
cation, his high ideals, his knowledge
of mankind, his interest in the schools,
the church and the home; he is rich in
faith and friendship. He has gone
through all the hardships that usually
accompany the poor young man in his
struggles up the ladder of success.
He understands the wants and the de-
sires of the common people; being one
Of them himself.
Mr.. Nestos has an excellent record
as . lawyer; he was an active war
worker; put much time and money
into the Red Cross drives; he has al
ways been interested in religious
work He has for twelve years been
superintendent Of the largest Sum-
day school class In the state His
record as states attorney of Ward
, County is beyond reproach and he did
equally good work as a member of the
twelfth legislative assembly from the
twenty-ninth district.
r. A. Nestos is selfmade man in
the best sense of the term. He has
an intimate knowledge of the eco
nomic and political problems which
our state has inherited since the
early pioneer days, because he has
battled with them in practice as we'll
o. in theory. He has always been a
Progressive in politics, but never a
Radical.
Having worked his way thru life
1 and achieved success his ideals are
not impractical dreams. His ex-
perience makes his judgment sound.
He is a safe man for the governors
chair.
