DISARMAMENT CONFERENCE
TlNn2.

The international conference on
limitation OF arms, in session In
washington for about three months,
ended last week.
The United States, Great Britain,
Japan and France signed a treaty
pledging each to respect the insular
and dominion rights Of the others
in the reign of the Pacific, and to
confer jointly whenever causes OF
controversy arise, ratification Of this
agreement terminating the provoca-
tive Anglo-Japanese alliance.
The five leading naval Powers
join in treaty abolishing COMPETE
ton in the building of capital ships;
suspending all construction of this
kind for ten years; limiting the size
and armament of warships and the
tonnage of capital ships for each
Power in a specified ratio. It is
further agreed that there shall be
no additional fertilization of Pacific
islands by the United States, Great
Britain and Japan.
The same five Powers stand
pledged as among themselves
against the use of poison gas and
like devices in war, and likewise
against the use of submarines in at
lacking merchant vessels.
The United States and Japan
have settled the controversy over
cable rights in the Pacific.
Japan and China agree upon the
restoration by the former of Shan
tung.
Nine Powers are to join in a
treaty reaffirming the policy Of TIL,
open door in China, requiring the
listing of all treaties affecting tina:
country, and liberating China from
various forms of foreign interfer-
ence and influence.
All of these settlements are OF
vast Importance. But the outstand-
ing achievement of the conference Is
undoubtedly the agreement embody-
ing the scrapping of 100000 tons
of capital ships, ten-year holiday
in naval building and the limiting OF
the dominant fleets thereafter.

bishop Cook has recently employed
two new women workers to assist in
the diocese They are Miss Isabel
Wagner and Miss Frances Hagner.
They are to promote work among girls
and young women.
Miss Wagner is familiar with insti-
tutional work as organized i'm a large
New York parish, where she was for
merly member. Later she has been
a missionary in the mountains Of Ten
nesSee and among the Indians of South
Dakota. Miss Hagner was a teacher
in the parish of ST. Michael and All
Angels in Baltimore and has had eX-
perience in a large New York parish.
Last year the Every Member Canvass
was asst-ted by large corps of
cergymen outside the State. This
year the clergy of the State are under
taking. with the help of their vestries
and earnest workers Of the parishes
to put through this campaign without
outside assistance. Since the new
program of church work went into eff
feet. three years ago, there has been
Il wonderful advance in every depart
ment of church activity. There have
been more bHptisnls, more contirma-
tionS. more Sunday School scholars
and teachers, more candidates for the
ministry and very great increases in
the amounts raised to spread the King
dom of God at home and abroad. The
first year of the new program saw II
new missionaries sent out, which broke
all previous records. The church has
redoublcd its ability TO carry comfort
to the Sorr0Wing, education to the igno,
rant, healing to the sick and the good
news of the gospel of Christ to hun.
dreds of thousands of people whom It
could not reach before.

new PREMIER RULES
WITH IRON HAND

Rome, Italy, Nov 1-Benito Musso-
linni, the new Premier of Italy, de-
clared today that the Facista would
give back to the country its soul. The
ministers clothed in frock coats which
replaced the black shirts which distin-
guished the Facista's from the rest of
the politicians, were at work today
with iron discipline prevailing in ev-
cry department. Mussolinni has insti-
tuted a queer system Of checking up
his new. government. Each morning
he plans to call up each department
to assure himself that his ministers
are at work. State employees have
been warned that hardness will not
be tolerated and if anyone is tardy
they will be dismissed instantly. The
new premier's attitude toward Gabriel
D'Annunzio was the cause of much
speculation was partly cleared today
by telegram sent by Mussolinni to

THE REGULAR
ROTARY DINNER

There was a good attendance at the
regular Rotary dinner yesterday noon
at the Rudolf Hotel, several visitors
from jamestown being present, and
Mr.. Howard Wilson, one of the offic-
ials of the Barnes County Farm Blu
reau, also being a guest. Following
the business of the club Ward Boyd,
Rotarian Of the jamestown CLUB and
pastor Of the Presbyterian church Of
that city, was introduced as the main
speaker of the club, after Rotarian
Flint, also of Jamestown, had made a
few we'll chosen remarks. Mr.. Boyd
took as his subject, 'elections." He
did not pretend to go into American
politics, but gave very concrete and
interesting talk of the methods and
workings of the English political body,
reciting the many different heads to
the government of that country and
the manner in which they functioned.
He showed the difference between. that
country and this in holding and decid-
ing elections. He stated that in Eng
land when the opposition party became
strong enough to overthrow the party
in power then the government then
reigning fell and new elections follow
ed rapidly and the whole thing. was
over in less than a month, while in: the
United States it took us all the way
from six to eight months to get an
election over with. A British govern
ment might last one week or it might
last six years as did the government
headed by Lloyd George which was
overthrown about two weeks ago.
Ward Boyd contended that Lloyd
George was one of the greatest men
of the present day and that he had
done more for England in bringing it
back to a solid foundation than any
other man in that country. He main
tanned that England was the only one
Of the allied nations that had made an
effort to pay back it's war debts to
the United States and that it was the
solid craftsmanship of Lloyd George
that has made England proud OF its
credit. The talk was well received
and was exceptionally interesting. Had
the speaker more time we feel sure
that he would have met with rapt at
tention as every one present greatly
enjoyed the short time that he adj
dressed them. We hope some day tt
hear Rotarian Boyd speak again whel
he will have more time to enlarge OF
his subject.

MANY TRICKST0
CARRY ELECTION

Fargo, N. D., October 81, 1922 -
According to reports received at In
dependent Headquarters, the League
leaders are resorting to many tricks
in their attempt to win this election
by fair means or foul. C. O. Parsons,
who aside from his activities in this
state in former years will be remem-
bered as having later been tarred and
feathered down in Kansas, has this
fall been working as a League organ
izer in the western counties. At pub
lie meetings in Dunn county he has
recently made the statement that the
inspectors in each precinct will on
election day be required to read to
each voter the Nonpartisan voters
guide, a leaflet issued by League
Headquarters urging the voters to
vote the Nonpartisan ticket. Mr.. Par
sons threatened that any inspector
who failed to follow these instructions
on election day would be placed under
arrest.
According to the statement of Jim
Dorche, one of the election inspectors
in Dunn county, Mr.. Parsons is calling
on the inspectors and giving them the
same instructions and making the
same threats in case they fail to obey
his orders.

the farmers program lie cited az
instance in one O. His cp2eches W:len
he asked the farmers what they that
it meant and they replied, "Finish the
farmers"
He also declared that it would be
disgrace to vote for Lemke and him
self as they had beer" recalled once,
according to the l. V. AS. He said
that if they had sold out to the I. V.
AS last fall there would have been
no recall and they would still be the
state officials.
He urged the people to get togetf.~
er and vote as their conscience dis
tated and not according to party lines.
He also urged them to forget their
political prejudices,
After the recall election he declar-
ed that he was thru with politics and
that he had had enough. But when
several friends wanted him to run and
gave him their endorsement he again
entered the field. He did this as he
did not want to be called a gutter and
because I've was interested ini this at
fair.
Again urging the people to, get to-
gether and be sure to get out and
vote on November 7th he wound Up
his tragedy of agony.
