Another Week

Threshing is pretty we'll complet-

as IL and Is bushels said A.
Z Snow, manager of the elevator.
But where the wheat was well

was some damage on account Of
poor stacking, during the recent
wet weather. Within another week
threshing will be pretty wei; com

The yield Of flax has not been rs
good as some expected, Mr.. Snow
said, although he reported one yield
of 12 bushels an acre.

made by any nation since history be.
gan, Senator Arthur Capper of Kan

been reduced by more than Is per
cent and added:
"A great part of the credit for thi:
record belongs to President Coolidge
Notwithstanding he has been in Of

Hit at Measure

gorous condemnation Of the initial.
ed tax reduction bill, to be voted
on at the fall election, Nov. 4, was
voiced at the meeting here yesterday
of representatives of four state or.
carnations, namely: the State Par
ent- Teachers association, the State
Association of School Board officers
the State Federation of Womcn's
clubs, and the North Dakota Educa.
tion association.
Resolutions unanimously adopted
by the meeting make the following
charges against the bill:
If passed, it would cripple the pub.
lie school system Of North Dakota.
1t would in many instances length.
en- the school period of boys and girls
in the state before reaching high
school, from one to two years.
1t would close the doors of many
of the rural schools.
1t is unfair and arbitrary.
1t will not accomplish the purpose
of reducing the taxes of the small
farmer to any material degree.
Many Speak in Opposition
Speeches opposing the bill and de-
claring it would result in various
evils were delivered by H. l.. LOOMS
of Fargo, Mrs. Grant S. Hager OF

MAN THOUGHT
DEMENTED IS
STILL HUNTED
George Englehardt Believed
Hiding in Hills West of
Missouri River

Mandan, N. D., Oct. 24.-George
Englehardt, 38, single, farmer living
three miles northeast of Hebron, for
whom Hebron city officials and
county sheriff deputies have been
searching since his alleged attempt
ed shooting of his brother and be-
cause of his condition is held to be
dangerous, was still at large today.
He is believed by searchers to be
hiding somewhere in the hills be-
tween Golden Valley and Hebron.
The country is rough, with coulees
and high buttes, an ideal place for
one to dodge pursuers.
Englehardt is known to be heavily
armed, having a h;gh-powered rifle,
shotgun, revolver and large
quantity of ammunition with him.

ship as Restriction Upon
Individuals Rights

Washington, Oct. 24.-President
Coolidge set forth last night poll
icies of administration under which
he purposes that the government
will maintain peace, promote econ-
omy, provide protective tariff, as
sist the farmers, leave the people
in possession Of their property and
maintain the integrity of the
courts"
In the last extended address he
expects to make before election and
the most comprehensive he has de-
livered since his speech of accept
ance of the Republican nomination,
the President declared his stand on
practically every phase of govern
ment affairs. He discussed CAM
paign issues, in some instances for
the first time.
Mr.. Coolidge spoke before the
Eastern Division of the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States,
meeting here in the chambers new
building and the address was car
ried by radio to almost every section
of the country.
Summarizing the administrations
program which, he said, had
brought an era of more than aver
age prosperity" the president call
ed attention that despite the "natur-
al supposition that every we'll wish
er Of the country would be anxious
to maintain the present established
order of things" there are now pro-
posed "at least two of the most rev.
olutionary changes" government
ownership of transportation and
limitation of the powers of the su-
preme court.
Perilous Undertaking
Public ownership he described as
a "most perilous undertaking, both
to the welfare of business and the
independence of the people" If
powers Of the supreme court were
limited as proposed, he said, "the
historian would close the chapter
with the comment that the people
had shown that they were incapable
of self government and che Amer
lean republic had proved failure"
Mr.. Coolidge said further reduc-,
tion in Federal taxes was possible
on the basis of the estimated gov
ernment budget for next year, and
he outlined as his common-sense
method of taxation:
Getting all we can out of the rich
by making the rates moderate and
stimulating business to provide work
and increase the earnings Of the
poor"
The foreign affairs, the President
promised cooperation in the interest
of peace; declared for constitutional
covenants outlawing aggressive war
fare; and reaffirmed his proposal
