people. Not only that, but they have
proved beyond criticism that they
are sane, practical officials and. execu-
tives. They have done more in the
short time they have been in Office to
make the outside realize that North
Dakota is worthy Of outside consider
alton financially and in an investment
way, than the Nonpartisans had done
in eight years, or ever would, because
the longer the Nonpartisans remain
ed the less confidence financial men
in other parts Of the country had in
the state. We know what the Non
partisans have done and would do
we're they in power again. BY their
wrecks we know them. We know
what the Independents have done dur
ing their short administration. Their
wisdom and efficiency are their own
best eulogy. Therefore, it should not
be difficult matter for the voters. of
the state to know which way to turn
at the primary election and at the
election next November. If you are
interested in the prosperity of your
state, your city and your own bust
ness, and even your home, you will
vote for Gov. Nestos and the other
Independent candidates. This is the
duty of a patriotic citizen of North
Dakota. If you have not yet been
convinced that Socialism and it's
dreamy concomitants are not consist
ent with the ideals of the American
democracy, then of course you will
vote the Nonpartisan ticket. But if
you feel that way, you stand in the
position of one who tacitly admits
that seeing is not believing, and that
you have eyes and a mind, but refuse
to read the truth. The Nonpartisans
themselves have told you out of their
own mouths what their intentions
were, and how they failed. The men
who first lied the League to victory
are now tabooed by other ambitious,
yet just as dreamy, leaders. The lea
que is broke financially, yet thou
sands of farmers in the state poured
their hard learned money into its bot
tomless Golfers. The CourierNews,
the official League paper, hardly
knows just where it stands. Townley
came back from Jail and was disown-
ed by the men whom he made, yet
Townley is still the high priest of
Nonpartisan. The Scandinavian-Am-
erican bank is out Of business, and
thousands of farmers are losers be-
cause Of that When you realize that
these things are facts, you will do
nothing to encourage the league cam
paign, but you will exert your every
effort to keep Gov. Nestos and the In
dependents in office. The state gov
eminent is emerging out of the shad-
ows of chaos, and in another year or
so we will again be doing business on
100 per cent sane and efficient ba-
sis. Gov Nestos has laid his founda-
ton, and now we must help him COM

efficient officials and inefficient ones.

That we may stimulate more gen

life in our state, and for the purpose
of making our homes more attractive
and more home-like to those who have
been raised in communities where
their childhood homes were sheltered

and in view of the fact that nature,
otherwise so lavish in the gifts be-
slowed upon our state, gave US but
few trees and shrubs for the protec-
ton and adornment Of our homes, and
since we especially desire that the
growing generation should emulate
the splendid examples Of the pioneers
and become interested in the planting
Of trees and shrubs, and the protec-
ton and care of the valuable native
wild life of every character.

Press Favorable TO Lloyd
George Says Efforts

BY LLOYD ALLEN
United Press Leased Wire

LONDON. Oct. 9.-Possiblity of the
overthrow of the LLOYD George govern
ment next month when parliament con
vencs was discussed today by oppon-
ents of the prime minister.
Liberal and conservative anti.Georgi-
ans saw an advantage in recent attacks
on the premier because of his Near
Eastern Policies.
The attack in the press is led hN
/. }. l.. Gysvir, writer for the, Observer
whase nhinfon carrirs great weight as
Il critic Of government.
The Observer and many other papers,
some of them that have long been
friendly TO Lloyd George, are elamoring
for Il change in government following
the militant attitude the cabinet has
taken in dealing with the keMalists in
the Near East. The recent manifesto
issued from 10 Downing street, urging
the dominions TO aid in repelling the
Turks from the neutral zone, is blamed
for precipitating tho present attacks
on Lloyd George. IL was charged that
in issuing the manifesto the premier
nsurpcd the duties of Lord Curzon, for
eign minister.
Curzon is given credit for forcing the
cabinet to adopt a conciliatory attitude
toward the Turks, which was evidenced
in two allied notes dispatched to the
Turkish nationalists.
Curzon is credited with getting the
government out of the troubles that
the Lloyd George policy gets it into.
The government organs are sturdily
defending the Georgian policies. They
point out that the request for aid from
the dominions was caused by the de
sertion OF France from the side of Eng
land in the Near Eastern crisis.
Reinforeements, the Georgian press
states, were necessary in the Near East
TO prevent the Turks from scizing the
straits of the Dardanelles.

FOOTBALL TEAM
OF HIGH SCHOOL
BEGINS PRACTICE
Many New Players Respond
To Call Last Week for
Double Line-Up

The football team, after another
week s practice, is slowly rounding in
into shape and beginning to resemble a
real team. AS most of the men are
inexperienced, progress is slow on ac-
count of the short time for practice.
Last week still found the men working
on the fundamentals with good por-
tion of the limited time being spent
on the dummy where the men are
learning to block and to tackle.
Captain Kliegel, and Thomas, the
two regulars left from last year, are
the only ones sure of their places.
Kliegel is heavier and faster than
last year and should prove a better
man than he was last year. He will
do most Of the kicking and passing
this year. Thomas who played guard
last year is being worked ut tackle this
year. lie is little light for the posi-
ton but seems to make up for it Sy his
fight and aggressiveness.
At the present time Rich, who halls
from Nebraska, seems to be the best
man for center, though Willoughy is
giving him II run for the position. Rich
has had scrub team experience in Ne
pounds over Willoughby in weight. A
number of big men are being tried at
guard with Jacobs and McElvany
leading. Courtney, Thompson, and
Sipplc are also in the race at the
present time.
Thomas and Gibbs were playing first
team tackles until the first of last
week when Gibbs tore the ligaments in
his shoulder. Miller has been shifted
from full-back on the scrubs to Glib s
place as tackle aud seems to be more
than making good. Hickey, a 16C
FOUNDER, n new man out last week, Is
also being given u try at tackle. lie
is fast and aggressive and if not given
II chance during the first part of the
season, is almost sure of Il place on
the team later
Gibbs will be back in the game in
few days and it is expected he will
find competition somewhat kcener
than before he was injured. Mauer
HEN, Hurst, and Starr are being tried
at end and all are showing up in good
shape. HEM and Hurst are better
on grabbing passes while Mauer and
Starr are better at the taekling and
blocking. Probably two sets of ends
will he used according to the style of
plays being used.
Isaac Stafford, whose open field
running was the sensation of last We'd
nesday's scrimmage, will probably be
first string quarterback. Though Will
loughby, the politician, who was II
days late in reporting for practice
may replace him, Allen and Givcns are
good quarterbacks but are too small
for the team this year. They may be
used in some of the games if Central is
ever lucRy enough to get good lead

LONDON, Oct. 9.--Seven ships of

erty order prohibiting ships entering
American ports with booze on board
This announcement was made follow

in the test were not made known.
Steamship Men Amazed
TOXIC, Oct. 9.-Amcrican and Jap
anese steamship men in Japan today
professed amazement over the orders
from Washington against sale of liquor
on American ships or on steamships
operating into American ports.
At Yokohama, steamship offices
spoke gloomily of the effect they
feared the order would have ON Amer
n-Japanese commerce.
Rumors were going around entirely
without confirmation, that japanese
lines running into Seattle will change
their routings so they will call first
at Victoria, Is. c. Such a plan, it is
believed, would make it possible foi
them to sell liquor at sea and leave
their liquor stocks in storage in Brit
ish Columbia before continuing on tc
an American port, picking up the liquor
again on the return trip.
japanese steamship men believed
that the order would hurt the lines
running into San Francisco far moro
than those running to Puget Sound.
