NEW SALEM EXHIBIT PLEAsEs
One of Most Interesting Features at
National Dairy Show

Ten people from Dickey county at
tended the National Dairy show held
at St. Paul last week. They made up
Dickey county's part in the delegation
from North Dakota, which totaled
over 700 people. Those accompanying
County Agent Adams on the tour
were: O. E. Elmer, Joe Sandkamp,
Swan johnson, G. A. Hample, H. K.
Haldeman, DR.. Frost, DR.. Maerck-
lein, Lars Martinson, VIM. Hutsinpil-
Ter.
Those who were not fortunate
enough to attend will probably be in
terested to know that the North Da-
.kota state exhibit and the Holstein
exhibit put on by the New Salem
Dairy circuit attracted as much at
tention as any feature at the show.
In this latter exhibit there were thir-
teen cows, all daughters of the famous
old foundation cow that was purchased
in the first carload Of pure breds i'm
ported by the New Salem farmers
when they formed their organization
to develop the dairy industry after
they had been visited by several years
of crop failures. Old John Christen-
son, one Of the charter members of
this famous circuit Of seventeen farm
ers, told the visitors that it was SO
dry in New Salem that they had to
soak the hogs in order to get them
to hold swill, but in the face Of this
he presented evidence that there was
only one farm out Of the seventeen
that complains of mortgage.
Several Of the Dickey county farm
ers were so impressed with the ex-
hibits that they resolved to buy a few
good dairy cows with which to insure
themselves against another failure Of
the wheat crop.

MOE SELLS JEwELRY STORE
Will Devote His Time and Attention
to Grand Theatre

r. E. Hebert, who has been en-
ployed at the Moe jewelry store since
last June, recently closed a deal with
E. A. Moe whereby himself and his
two brothers, L. M. and E. F. Hebert,
assume ownership and control Of the
business. The two latter boys came
down from their home in Cavalier
this week to inspect the store and rat
ify the purchase, and E. F. Hebert will
remain for time to assist r. E., who
will be in active control. Mr.. Moe will
retain the optical line.
Some time after the first of the
year the new proprietors expect to
move to more commodious quarters
but will continue at the present loca-
tion for some time.
E. A. Moe, the retiring proprietor,
has been in business here since 1900,
with the exception Of two years spent
out west. Three or four years ago
he purchased the Grand theatre from
j. c. Quincer and the business has
grown until he finds it necessary to
give it nearly all his time. As soon
as the jewelry firm secures another
location, Mr.. Moe plans TO enlarge
and remodel the theatre in order to
give better service to his. patrons
E. A. has demonstrated that he
knows how to give us good movie
shows, and as the new jewelry store
proprietors appear to be live ones. the
change should prove profitable to ev-
erybody concerned.

BIRCHENOUGH
DRAWS CROWD
Voters Fill C. NJ. {. Hall to Listen to
Address Given BY Fighting
ParsOn
SCORES THE ADMINISTRATION
Pleads for Recall of Frazier, Hagan
and Lemke Tomorrow

Rev. Allen o. BirchenOugh, pastor
of the M. E. church at St. Thomas and
known throughout the state as the
fighting parson," spoke at the C. M.
C. hall last Friday evening, and large
gathering of voters was on hand at
the appointed hour, seeking informa-
ton on the present political mess. The
speaker was few minutes late in
putting in his appearance. He had
spoken at two other places in the
county that day and came directly
from Forbes by car to fill his engage
ment here. His voice suffered as re-
suit of his previous speeches and the
ride in the high wind, for which he
made apologies.
Rev. Birchenough proved his claim
to the title Of "the fighting parson,"
launching at once into whirlwind
diatribe against the state administra-
tion. He is very interesting plat
form speaker, and held the closest at
tention of his audience until his final
words. Rev. Birchenough's most ear
nest efforts, since he became active in
the fight against the leaders of the
Nonpartisan league, have been direct
ed toward securing evidence connect
ing the league movement with social
ism. He has collected mass of doc
umentary evidence along this line, and
most Of his speech was in this vein.
He claimed that the state is being
used as an experimental ground for
socialistic theories, and enumerated
some of the socialists Of national and
international reputation who have been
identified with the movement here.
The speaker stated that he had moth
ing against Governor Frazier person
ally, his principal objection to him as
a governor being that he possesses
rubber hose instead Of backbone,
acting merely as rubber stamp" in
allowing others to tell him what to do.
The governor also has hopes of the
presidential chair through the medium
OF the success of socialism in this
state and consequently in the nation,
the speaker claimed. Rev. Birch
enough said that he had been SYM
pathetically inclined toward the league
movement at the time of its incep-
tion, in the hope that it would be a
purely farmers movement, for the
benefit of the farmers, although in
clined to be suspicious of the feasibil-
ity of some of the state owned ven
lures. He soon found, however, that
it was a plot to capture the state for
the socialists, and that in reality the
farmers were being exploited instead
of aided.
He based his indictment of Haean
on the fact that Hagan had violated
the law in securing a loan from the
state on his farm, and in securing
state aid in building home, while a
state official. When he got down to
Lemke, the parson had used up most
of his time, and he disposed of him
in few words. He told of Lemke's
famous house in Fargo, which he as
sured his hearers had cost not a cent
less than $4,000, whereas the law
specifies $4,000 as the maximum. In
conclusion the speaker urged most
emphatically that every voter cast his
ballot on the 28th, as vital issues are
at stake.

FARMERS WILL
HELP STARVING
Thousands in Near East Will Perish
Unless Substantial Aid Reaches
Them Quickly
OBJECT IS MOST WORTHY ONE
Grain to BE Collected in Dickey Coun.
ty By Farm Bureau

Every farmer in Dickey county is
asked to give one or more sacks OF
grain to the Near East Relief CON-
mission, to be used to help feed the
starving orphans in the near east. The
week of Nov. 6-12 is the time desig.
mated for delivering the grain. Dona.
tions will be accepted at any elevator
in the county and receipts given fol-
same. The Dickey County Farm bu.
reau will collect the grain free Of
charge and place it in the cars. The
railroads will haul it to the mills
where it will be ground into -four
without any charge, and steamship
companies have agreed to donate their
ships to carry the flour to the COM
mission in Armenia, which will see
that it reaches the needy.
For seven years Armenia has put
in her crops, and for seven years there
has been no harvest. The feet of
marching armies have trodden out the
grain, invading cavalry has helped to
destroy, deportation has taken the
people from the field, the crops have
withered. Armenia has lost five times
more men in the war in proportion to
numbers than any other nation in
Europe. The women are enslaved OF
scattered, the children dead, starving,
or in near east orphanages. You are
familiar with the story.
Nothing more need be said. It is
a question of women and children
starving to death or else supplying
them with a handful of bread. The
people Of North Dakota have no sur
plus this year, but it is safe to say
that no one will starve to death here
or even approximate it. It is also
safe to say. that those who know the
facts Of the case and are assured that
the statement is absolutely true will
not hold back handful of grain that
these children starve.
The churches, Sunday schools and
public schools are being enlisted in
helping in the campaign. Every farm
er should do his part by delivering
the grain at the elevator any time be-
fore Nov. IL. Any kind of grain j.
acceptable. Grain held on storage
tickets can be used by seeing the ele-
vator man, who will issue a receipt
for the amount Of grain given.
; Dickey county farmers will surely
give all they can without further SOL
icitation. Remember the dates, Nov
to IL.

REDUCED RATE TO KANSAS CITY
Many Local Legionnaires Will Take
Advantage of Low Fare

kSIuSTlCdu Legion Will Oc n0lO at NAN
sas City Oct. 81, Nov. 1 and 2. In
order that as many Legionnaires as
possible, in addition to the regular
delegates, might be enabled to take in
the convention, the Legion has been
making an effort to have the railroads
grant rate Of one cent per mile to
Kansas City and return for those
dates, and in this they have been sue
cessful. All railroads operating in
North Dakota have granted this rate,
which is good only for members of the
American Legion, their wives, depend
ent members Of their families, or wild
ows Of deceased members Of the Amer
lean Legion. The round trip fare
from Oakes is only 1854, exclusive
Of sleeping car accommodations, war
tax Sc per cent additional, and a
number Of Legion members from this
vicinity are planning to attend.
This is splendid opportunity for
local Legionnaires to take in nation
al convention as it is likely that the
next convention will be held on the
west coast, and it will probably be a
long time before it will be held as
close as Kansas City again. The rail-
roads might not be induced to grant
such favorable rate next time eth
er. Any Legion member who is able
to make the trip should do so. In or
der to secure this rate, reduced fare
certificates must be secured from the
post adjutant Of the Legion, which
must be presented to the ticket agent
when ticket is bought. The adjutant
now has supply Of these on hand,
and those desiring to make the trip
should call at the Times office and Sc
cure one.
The following Cakes Legionnaires
are planning to make the trip: Chas.
Webb, Leonard Turner, George Lund,
Bert c. Dill, Wesley Hoar, Erick Bu-
land, Chas. Schill, Robert Kilchenman,
Carl Ingstad, and number of others
will doubtless get on the band wagon
before the bunch leaves.
Kansas City has provided fund Of
100000 for the entertainment Of the
Legion boys during the convention,
and the city will be turned over to
them. Soldats Americana from all
over the country will be there, and
many a reunion will take place be-
tween buddies who have not seen each
other since climbing out of o. d.
Kansas City will look like an embark
alton camp for three days, but there
will be no M. P.s to say you nay, SOL
dier-the town will be yours.
National officers for the ensuing
year will be elected at the conven-
tion, the place of meeting for next
year chosen, and steps to be taken
in the Legion's fight for adjusted COM
pensation and aid for the disabled will
be decided upon, besides such other
business as may regularly come be-
fore the meeting.
Marshal Foch will be guest of the
boys on those dates, and Admiral Beat
ty, Baron Jacques and General Diaz
will be there, besides our own General
Pershing. The latter's box will be
placarded with his famous slogan,
"Hell, heaven or Hoboken by Christ
mas"
Fall in, men, and let's go!
