Thousands of Government employees

at home When noon came and the

the Weather Bureau held out no hope

to allow them to get to their homes.
Congress also was affected by the
storm, only forty-nine Senators answer

SWISS FARMERS TO
 COME TO AMERICA

DENVER, Nov. 6.-From the peace ful valleys and slopes of the Swiss Alps to the rugged hills of the Colo rado Rockies will be the transition of several hundred Swiss farmers, if plans under way here mature.
 Negotiations for securing thousands of acres of farm land in Moffat being conducted by representatives of young Swiss farmers who desire to emigrate to the United States and take up the manufacture of cheese and butter in the western mountain country.
 The plan is expected to result in the colonization of much land not only in Colorado, but also in the valleys and mountain sides of Utah and Wy oming.
 With the opening of the Moffat Tun- nel, which will afford transportation facilities to thousands of square miles of rich farm land on Colorado's west. ern slope, it is expected the coloniza. tion movement of the Swiss farmers will result in rapid and intensive cul. tivation of great areas of farm land.

LAW AND ORDER' ISSUE
 IN COLORADO ELECTION

DENVER, Nov. 6.-Despjite the ab- sence of United States Senatorial contest in Colorado tomorrow, the Con- gressional and State campaigns that showed much apathy in the first few weeks following the primary elections have developed widespread interest, both parties are staging one of the most active campaigns ever known in Colorado in an "off year."
 With varying interpretations by the two major political parties, the lead. ing issue of Law and Order" has brought out bitter criticisms on both sides in connection with the mainte, nance of the State Rangers.
 The Democratic platform, endorsed in it's entirety by William E. Sweet candidate for Governor, strongly favors the repeal of the Ranger law, while the Republican platform, upon which Benjamon Griffith is passing his cam paign for gubernatorial honors, con tains a plank strongly endorsing re tention of the State police law. Both Sweet and Griffith have stumped the State and outside speak CTS of prominence have spoken in sev' eral cities, Secretary of Labor James J. Davis being the leading Republican William Gibbs McAdoo, former Sec retary of the Treasury, delivered one of the principal addresses in behalf of Sweet, and in denouncing those who charged the Democratic guberna torial candidate with being radical with "Socialistic" ideas. McAdoo de clared that both Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson were similarly charged when they advocated Liberal | constructive and forward looking 1 policies"

NATION ISSUE IN NEBRASKA
 IS 0BSCURED

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov Whats the national issue in Nebraska this year?'
 Put that question to Nebraskans who have followed politics in this State for a quarter of a century and they'll hesitate long enough to count ten before replying. And when an answer is finally given the chances are two to one it will be exceedingly vague.
 Facts are, there isn't such a thing as a national issue. The only issue is men.
 One of these is Gilbert H. Hitch. cock, moist and Democratic.
 Another is R. Beeches Howell, bone dry Republican, indorsed by the Non Partisan Leaguers, by the Farmer Labor Party and by the Nebraska League of Women Voters.
 It is generally conceded that the Hitchcock camp is counting that SUD- port from Bryan supporters and vice versa. However, MT Bryan and Sen ator Hitchcock have not been associ- ated politically hitherto.
 William Jennings Bryan is stumping the State for Brother Charley in the latter's race for Governor. Liquor and suffrage are no longer issues," in sists MT. Bryan. We got rid of one and adopted the other By-gones are by-gones.' All campaign headquar- ters confess that money is their near est unknown quantity this year. The liberal contributor of old apparently is trying to get squawk out of the eagle in his own pocket, say those in charge of political financing. The candidates in the race are literally un. rolling their own rolls.
 Nebraska will elect six members of the lower branch of the National Con- gress for long terms and two for un- expired terms. The Republicans are going to bat with a solid bone-dry ticket, and with three incumbents. The Democrats have at least three wet candidates, and others who have noth. ing to say for publication on the pro. hibition issue.
 The tickets:
 Republicans-First District. Wal ter Anderson, long term, and R. H. Thorps short term; Second District, w. G. Sears; Third District, Robert E. Evans, incumbent; Fourth, M. o. Mclaughlin, incumbent; Fifth, w. E. Andrews, incumbent; Sixth, Robert G Simmons, long term, and A. R. Hum. phrey, short term.
 Democratic-First District, John H Morehead; Second, James H. Han1ey Third, Edgar Howard; Fourth, H. B. Cummins, Fifth, Ashton c. Shallen. berger; Sixth. Charles w. Beal.

PARTY LINES NORTH DAKOTA
 THROWN WINDS

BISMARCK, N. D., Nov. 6.-Re, publican North Dakota may, for the second time in her history, send a Democrat to the United States Senate.
 With party lines smashed in the campaign, the issue on the Senator ship is drawn between J. F. T. O'Conner, Democratic and anti-Non. Partisan League candidate, and Lynn J. Frazier, Republican nominee and Non-Partisan.
 Never before has there been such complete breakdown in party lines as in the present campaign in North Dakota. A score of years ago a rebellious Legislature turned upon 1 the dictates of .tInvander Mckenzie, Republican boss of the state, and Is sent Democratic Senator to Wash | ington. No other Democrat has come close to election.
 OConner styles himself a pro- gressive and former Governor Fraz- fer, who was recalled, radical; Frazier calls himself a progressive and O'Connor reactionary. O'Con- nor is opposed to extension of gov ernment ownership, believes in the Farm Bloc and would vote tariff protection for farmers so long as the principle of high tariff obtains; believes the Government throue the War Finance Corporation and other agencies should finance farm ers' cooperative marketing agencies, wants the Federal Farm Land banks and declares he believes in con- stitutional government as opposed to would oppose the soldiers bonus. | Frazier, if elected, will follow tions, it is said. He believes in government ownership, would re- peal the EschC Cummins law and take over the railroads, declares Presi- dent Harding ought to have seized the coal mines during the strike, like La Follett's plan to prevent the Supreme Court from declaring un- constitutional laws of Congress and would support a soldiers bonus measure.
 Frazier led the n-Partisan League in North Dakota, was elected Gov ernor three times and recalled during his third two-year term. He declares he would not have been recalled if he had been willing to compromise with Big Business on the North Dakota program of state ownership. O'Connor opposed Frazier for Gov ernor two years ago and was beaten by 4,000 votes.

BRITISHERS ASK FOR
 NEW RENT CHARTER

LONDON, Nov. G. Millions of house tenants throughout Britain are agitating for a new rent charter.
 An Act of Parliament in 1920 gave tenants a three-year security of tenure. But it also gave landlords the right to raise rents 40 per cent so long as necessary repairs were carried out.
 Recently, however, the Scottish Courts have decided that this 40 per cent increase is illegal unless the tenants were first given notice to quit.
 Accordingly the Labor Party is instituting a great campaign through
