RIVER GOES OVER BANKS IN
PLACES; WATER IN EASEMENTS

Mouse river sprung a surprise on
the valley dwellers this week by go
ing completely over it's banks along
many of the lower spots this week.
The river has been creeping up
gradually for more than week and
at the time this is written, Tuesday
evening, the high mark has not vet
been reached, it is predicted. The
river is within foot of the high mark
of two years ago and will probably
reach that mark within the next day
or two.
Reports from up the river say that
the water is slowly receding, but it
will take about four days before the
water will begin to recede at this
point
In the low places along the river,
some of the residences are surrounded
by water and in number Of instances
families have moved out. Many
Easements are flooded, but little or
no damage has otherwise been done.
Several easements in Eastwood
park are flooded. Those who were
fortunate to have the drains in the
Easements plugged will have suffered
no damage, except where the water
has seeped thru the basement walls.
The river rose on an average OF
about nine inches day.
The water has covered the street at

REPUBLICANS MAX NO EN-
D0RSEMENT FOR SENATOR

There was delay in opening the
convention on account of contesting
delegations from Burleigh county.
The matter was finally settled, each
faction being permitted to seat half
of it's committee.
While the forces clashed at times,
early in the convention, the cooler
heads in each faction worked hard
to bring about compromise.
McCumber's forces claimed to have
sufficient votes to control the con-
vention. The anti-McCumber forces
were Just as certain that they could
win. The more radical in each faction
wanted to adopt the rule or ruin
methods, regardless of what bearing
it might have on the state election
but the convention adjourned without
any senatorial candidate being en-
dorsed. This was undoubtedly the
wiser plan.
Governor Nestos attended the con-
vention and undoubtedly had hand
in Bringing this about. If the gov
ernor is to be reelected, he will need
a united front and it would endanger
his chances to split the Independent
forces or to throw away any demo-
cratic support. The results of the
jamestown convention clarified the
political atmosphere and makes Mes
tos certain Of reelection, it is said.
McCumber is determined to win and
declared prior to the convention that
even if some other candidate were
endorsed at the convention, he would
be a candidate. The Independents
could. not think of endorsing Gronna
after he had played so openly for
the nonpartisan league support and
had any candidate been endorsed, it
Is kelly that they would have endors-
ed A. M. Christianson, member of the
supreme bench, who is in a receptive
mood. P. D. Norton, is another can
didate who hoped that he might re-
ceive the endorsement Of the conven-
ton for senator.
In the interests of harmony, A. G..
Divet of Fargo was named chairman
Of the convention and Sidney Adams
was elected secretary.
r. A. Nestos was unanimously en-
dorsed for Governor. j. E. Davis of
Goodrich made an eloquent nominal
ing speech and Kara A. Dickinson of
Allnot in a very witty and pleasing
manner seconded it.

SEC. HUS Ton ASKS u. S. TO
JOIN LEAGUE OF NATIONS

not been definitely settled. "The men
who are laboring in the league are
putting their hearts and souls into the
work because they believe that the
league is an association that is nee
essary to the world" he said.
"There is only one country in the
world that can straighten out Europe
and that is the United States. l plead
with you to cooperate with those
countries over there. The United
States needs them and must not let
them try to work out their problems
alone.
Mr.. Huston stated that 81 nations
are now in the league. The only
great nations not now represented are
Russia, Germany, Turkey and the
United States He named three of
the most vital questions that have
been taken up by the league, COM
munication and transportation in Eu
rope, legislation to control the pro-
duction and sale of opium and the
work that is being done by the health
section of the league in the devastated
sections of Europe. Referring to
the condition in Russia, he said he
did not know just what America had
heard about Russia, but however bad
the report may be, it cannot be ser
ious enough.
The last budget Of the league Of ma
tions was $4,O0O,O00 which seems a
large amount, but when divided up
among the 81 countries, is not large.
He said the league in three years had
spent far less than what it would cost
to build one battleship. Mr.. Huston
declared that the league may not be
a perfect organization, in fact he does
not agree with Article Ten, but it
may be altered and improved until it
will be on a still better working basis
and more acceptable. He declared
that the league was strongly behind
the disarmament conference in Wash
ington and has drawn up proposals
for land disarmament to be presented
to the Genoa conference now in ses-
sion.
About 45O representatives from the
81 nations are now employed by the
league of nations.

0'C0NN0R SELECTED BY DEM
0CRATS FOR u. S. SENATOR

IN presenting the report from the
committee Of As, S. j. Doyle asked that
no action be taken cn it pending the
outcome of the Republican senatorial
contest. When it seemed assured that
the Republicans would not indorse a
senatorial candidate he asked fer the
adoption Of his report, which was
identical with that submitted to the
Republican convention, and which calls
for a gentlemen's agreement to sup
port the Democratic candidates for
insurance. commissioner, auditor and
two railroad commissioners, and the
Republican candidates for the other
state offices. The adoption was by an
almost unanimous vote, the Hellstrom
forces not being able to muster more
than dozen votes in the entire con-
vention. Tls, contention adjourned

LABOR BUREAU FOR FARMERS
TO BE OPENED HERE FRIDAY

sl1ould make another appeal to Joseph
A. Kitchen, commissioner Of agricul-
ture and labor. Mr.. Kitchen was
reached by telephone at Bismarck to-
day and consented to have his depart
ment finance the labor bureau until
the farmers are provided with help
for the springs work.
y We have cut our expenses to the
bone to carry out the policy Of econo-.
my but if the establishment of the
labor bureau in Minot for few weeks
will mean a saving of many hund-
eds Of dollars to the farmers Of north
western North Dakota, the bureau
must lbe established" Mr.. Kitchen
said. He is sending Mr.. Nelson his
oath of office blank today. Mr.. Nell
son will open the office tomorrow, the
work being carried on. by Mr.. Nelson
under the direction Of County Agent
John Huseby. Mr.. Huseby stated to-
day that the establishment of the
bureau would be Of great service to
the farmers Of northwestern North
Dakota.
A part Of the county agents office
in the federal building will be used
to house the labor bureau.

a point on First Avenue Northeast.
The water is not expected to reach
as high a stage as in 1916. Twenty
years ago, there was a flood that has
not since been. equalled. At that
time, the water inundated half the
valley and residents of Minot rowed
boats as far up Central avenue as
the corner of the Great Northern lum-
ber yard.
The high water, this year, while
doing some damage, will prove a good
thing in washing out the channel of
the river.
The river rose four inches more
Tuesday night, and Wednesday morn
ing it was reported it had but a foot
more to go before it reaches the level
of the storm sewers, when it will
ficod the pavements.

Farm Training Given in Is High
-. Schools

More than $50 North Dakota High
school students are studying vocational
agriculture in Is high schools of the
state, according to E: H. Jones, pro-
fessor of agricultural education at
the North Dakota Agricultural Col
ltge, who also is state supervisor of
the Smith-Hughes schools in which the
agricultural training is being given.
Mr.. Jones will begin inspection of the
mith-Hughes schools in the state
soon.
"The vocational agriculture work
not only interests the high school
students in problems that they en-
counter at home, but also lay founda-
ton for a more advanced course at a
state agricultural college," Mr.. Jones
says. "This state Of North Dakota
is an agricultural state, and naturally
there is a great demand for agricul-
tural instruction"
"In the near future there will be
at least one high school in each coun-
ty giving the smith-Hughes train
ng."
The work in agriculture serves to
instruct the parents of the pupils tax
ing it in the ith-Hughes schools,
Mr.. Jones says, as much Of the work
is done at home, in the form of pro-
ject training, and this enables the
teacher to make contact with the par
ents on his visits to the home.
The Smith-Hughes law establishing
the vocational training high schools,
provides that such schools receive
federal funds to carry on the training
work. The states must also provide
an amount equal to the. federal appor-

Adianople-Thirty thousand Greeks
and Armenians have passed from this
city to the west since Saturday, and
the road between here and the Ma
rita river is an unbroken line of
men, women and children with OK
carts, cattle and camels.
Through a steady downpour of rain
they are ploding doggedly toward
their unknown destinations, driven
forward by the nameless fear which
has gripped the whole populace OF
Eastern Thrace since the govern
ment's bulletin were posted, announc-
ing the terms of the Mudania armi-
stice, which provides for occupation
of the province by the Turks within
As days.
The members of the Allied missions
stationed here declare the extent Of
the refugee exodus indicates the
Turks upon their entry will find East
ern Thrace almost uninhabited.
The procession has been orderly,
but the misery of the refugees is al
ready extreme, and pneumonia will
claim many victims if the present in
clement weather continues.
