Tracy r. Bangs Of Grand Forks, in
address before the Manitoba Bar
association meeting on Friday, at
Winnipeg, spoke Of the friendly rela-
tionship that exists between Canada
and the United States, and he gave a
resume of the ~Nonpartisan league &C

party was in power.
People of western Canada and the
western United States have always
been good friends because the people
who came from the east to settle in
western Canada yer OF the same
type as those who settled in the
states. Ind there Is a strong
bond of sympathy between them,' Mr..
Bangs told his Canadian hearers. His
address was principally devoted to a
brief history of. the regime OF the
Nonpartisan league in this state. To
the women Of the state . following
their enfranchisement, Mr.. Bangs
gave much credit for removing the
Townley administration. r.

Griffin Has
Been 40 Years
With Railway

u. Fl. Griffin, traffic freight agent
for this division of the Great North
ern, today is celebrating the 40th
anniversary of his connection with
the Great Northern road.
Forty years W. Mr.. Griffin became
a telegraph operator for the Great
Northern and for the next fourteen
years was associated with the COM
pany at Fargo, Argyle and Crookston.
He anne TO Grand Forks 26 years
ago, and as traffic freight agent for
the Great Northern here. has become
n of the best known and most popu-
lar of the roads officials in North Da-
kota.
AS a method Of stimulating interest
in the poultry industry, Mr. Griffin's
office has secured the names of thou
sands Of farmers in North Dakota
eastern Montana and northern Minnc-
sofa, who reside in territory adjacent
to the Great Northern lines. and these
farmers have been supplied with bull
letins or the various phases Of poul-
try raising. Five separate bulletins
go to each individual these being sent
direct from the U. S. department of
agriculture.
This is the third year that Mr.. Grit
fin has tried the plan, it having
worked out successfully four years
ago and w years ago. During both
of these former years mentioned, the
results have been entirely satisfac-
tory, Mr.. Griffin states.
In support Of his contention that
the poultry industry is a profitable
one, Mr.. Griffin today cited the case
of a farmer in the Rugby district who
has within the last few days paid to
a local investment company $40
which he was owing, and this entire
amount had been raised from the
products of five hen turkeys which
he received last year.

Townley To Support
Action Taken At
MINI. League Meet

Minneapolis, Feb. 11.-Deslaring
that in advocating the so-called 'bal-
anc of power" plan, he wanted to
see the farmers and workers develop
all the power they can. A. c. Townley,
president Of the National Nonpartisan
league in a statement today,
ed that he will support whatever ac-
ton is decided upon at the coming
state convention. ~
Mr.. Iownley's statement follows:
I'm advocating the so-called bal
anc Of power plan. I was thinking
mostly of the general situation, es-
pecially national and congressional
politics. l want to see the farmers
and workers develop all the power
they can INC effectively use all they
can develop. But it seems to me
tactical folly for the intelligent
minority to isolate itself in an i'm
potent group and leave the actual
balance of power with the most re.
dictionary. unpatriotic and ignorant
voters. 1 would like to see progress
sive people make the most OF their
strength and direct their group action
SO as to have the greatest possible in
fiuence on the government.
when the intelligent minority has
grown formidable enough to act indie
pendently when it has an Immediate
chance of becoming a majority, ] not
only favor but strongly urge indie
pendent action"
LIQUIDS Work OF LeaSuers.
Mr.. Townley praised the work OF
! the league in North Dakota and said
the league legislators in Minnesota
have a wonderful" record of service.
Our work where we have had a
chance to work a been a remark
able success" he said. Everything
has been done hat was promised as
far as the injunctions Of hostile courts
M the sentiment of the people
themselves permitted. -
I'VE got our men into Office in
North Dakota by surprising the poll
t%icians. But they kept a steady fire
of ~falsehoods and small issues that
meant nothing until the voters of the
state recalled three of the best pub.
lie servants the northwest has ever
seen. The voters Of North Dakota
stuck to the program but they were
so deceived by false issues that mere
office seekers looked better to many
of them than real men,"

CILBY DESTROYED
BY FIRE FRIDAY

The postoffice building Of Gilby.
N. D., was completely destroyed by
fire Friday. The blaze was thought
to have started by an overheated
chimney. and caused damages amount
ing to about $1,000, according to an
estimate made by Walter I. Forbes,
president Of the Bank of Gilby.
Only the combined efforts of Gilby
citizens saved the two adjoining
buildings from conflagration. The
destroyed structure was a two-story
building, was also occupied by the
Mather family, besides housing the
postoffice.
The fire was discovered at 2 o'clock
in the afternoon, and due to the high
wind and lack of fire-fighting APP
paratus, very little could be done to
save the place. A large part of the
postonice fixtures and postal matters
were saved, which were later trans
ferred to the Home General store
the postal business will be
conducted until new quarters are Sc
cured.
