Evangelistic
Campaign to Be
Held in Bismarck

A series Of cvangelistic meetings
will be held at the Evangelical
church, corner of Seventh and Rosser,
beginning next Sunday evening, with
Evangelist Harry James of Columbus,
Ohio, in charge. Rev. James will ar
rive in Bismarck Sunday noon and
the campaign will be launched the
same evening. The length of the cam
paign is uncertain and will be de-
termined by later developments. 1t
is probable that the meetings will
continue for at least three weeks.
however.
Rev. James comes to Bismarck as
one of the outstanding cvangclists of
the country. He has been in the work
IL years, and has been universally
successful in his mission. The ser
vices here are not to be considered
as denominational in any way, Rev. C..
F. Strutz, pastor of the Evangelical
church, has announced. The people
of Bismarck generally are invited to
take an interest in the series of
meetings and to attend whenever
possible.
Rev. James will be assisted by Rev.
E. f. Matteson, now of Wheaton, H.,
but until this fall pastor at Dodge,
N. d. Rev. Matteson is well known
in Bismarck and his friends will be
pleased to learn that he will be here
during the campaign.

Great Britain's
Mystery Plane Is
A Total Wreck

Baltimore, Oct. 23-LP-Great Bri-
tain's mystery plane," the super
marine Napier, S-4, crashed this
morning during the navigability trial
and is total wreck. Captain Henry
C. Baird, the pilot, is suffering from
immersion and shock, but escaped in
jury.
Captain Baird had just taken off
for the navigability and seaworth-
mess trials and was at an elevation
of about 200 feet when a wing -flutter
apparently developed in both wings
of the monoplane. Capt. Baird at
tempted at once to land. As he struck
the water the super-marine nosed
down and somersaulted on her
back, pressing the pilot under the
surface.
Captain Baird was wearing life
belt and managed to clear himself
and reached the surface as the Ma
pier S-4 sank.
The super-marine's mishap will
throw into the Schneider cup race
tomorrow both of Great Britain's s
Gloster-Napier IIf's, one of which
had been held in reserve. Bert
Hinkler of Melbourne, Australia, the
British reserve pilot, will take the
second Gloster into the race tomor-
row.

FRENCH MONEY
CRISIS STILL
IS UNSETTLED
Caillaux Lays Financial Posi-
tiOn of Country Before
the Cabinet

Paris, Oct. 23.-P)-The French
cabinet meeting today broke up
without Finance Minister Caillaux
fully detailing his fiscal measures or
submitting his resignation. which had
been anticipated in some quarters.
The cabinet is to meet again Monday.
While not giving the details of his
plans, NJ. Caillaux laid the financial
position Of the country before his
colleagues in general terms.
The impression prevails that the
cabinet will meet the chamber of dep
uties next Thursday without any
change in it's membership, although
full agreement on the financial ques-
tions has not yet been reached
among the ministers.
Debt Question Secondary
The question of Frances debt to
the United States temporarily is in
the background, it being realized that
it cannot usefully be taken up again
until the existing financial crisis is
settled.
Meanwhile, the whole problem is
being carefully studied by M. Gail
laux's assistants, and hope is express
ed that some announcement as to
what will be done will be made with
in two or three weeks.

Burleigh County
Wheat Ranks High

Burleigh county wheat this year
showed an average protein content Of
l3.4l, which was higher than the av-
eragc for the state as whole, ac-
cording to tests made by G. F. Man
gels, cereal chemist Of the North Da-
kota Agricultural college, of three
samples representing the wheat crop
Of the county. Samples were taken
from the farms of Joseph McCluskey
and Melvin Grant, Menoken, and Alex
Stenquist, Wilton.
Tests of 507 samples gathered from
AZ counties Of the state showed an
average protein content of 1873. Last
year the protein content averaged
ll.33 per cent. samples from az
states being used as a basis for the
test. The wheat samples richest in
protein were produced in the western
part of the state this year, it was
found.
Information regarding the samples
was prepared by county agents and
sent in with the wheat, and the mill
ing department will use this data in
attempting to determine whether the
use Of legumc crops, such as alfalfa,
sweet clover and red clover increases
the chance of producing high protein
wheat when climatic conditions are

HEAT PLANT
BEING BUILT
AT HOSPITAL
Modern Heat and Power Plant
and Laundry For Bis
marck Institution

A $4,000 building project is now
under way ut the Bismarck hospital
which, when completed, will give that
institution modern and thoroughly
complete heating and power plant and
laundry. An entirely new building is
being constructed east of the south
wing of the hospital which will in
Clude a full basement and one story.
The basement will house the four new
boilers to be installed, together with
the other machinery connected with
the heating and power plant. and the
laundry will contain all the latest
machinery for a department of that
kind. The work was started in Sep
tember and the contract calls for
completion by January.
The present laundry and heating
plant, in the basement of the hospital
proper, will be taken out and disposed
of after the new plant is in oper-
alton. The space now used for that
purpose will be devoted to more
rooms for patients and central
store room. The main purpose of the
new building, in addition to providing
more modern and larger equipment,
is to get away from all noise and
vibration in the hospital itself by
moving all machinery to separate
structure. The new plant will be con
nected to the main building at the
east wing with an elevator between
This will give the institution two ele-
vatOrs instead of one as at present
Will Heat Residences
In addition to heating the hospital,
the new plant will heat the five res
licences which are on the hospital
grounds. Heating mains have been
laid to all of these buildings.
A huge smokestack for the new
plant is now in process of construc-
tion and is attracting considerable
attention. 1t will, when completed,
be from 65 to 20 feet high and is of
an immense size. Another feature
of the plant will be an automatic hop
per arrangement for unloading coal
whereby an entire truck load of fuel
can be dumped into the huge coal bin
in one operation. The institution uses
about z l-2 tons of coal daily except
during the summer months and then
the daily consumption is about five
tons. With the new heating plant it
will be possible to use a much cheap
er grade of fuel than heretofore and
it is expected, therefore, that the
heating costs will be materially re-
duced.
The construction work is being
done by C.. H. Johnson e. Son OF
Fargo.

WILL MOVE TO
DETERMINEIF
LAW IS VALID
Insurance Agents Protection
Law to Be Tested in North
Dakota Court

Action to determine the validity
of the insurance agents protection
law, passed at the last session of the
legislature, will be filed in the near
future, Insurance Commissioner S. A.
Olsness was notified today by Fred
erick Silber, Chicago Attorney, who
is representing Olsness in case
which has been carried to the United
States circuit court of appeals.
Trial of the case in the federal ap-
peals court will be held up pending
an action to determine the validity
of the new North Dakota law, Silber
said.
The case originated, Olsness said
because of fight between the West
ern Union of Insurance companies,
representing one group of fire insuf-
ance companies, and The Western
Bureau of Insurance companies, rep
resenting another group.
When the Western Union of insur-
ance companies issued an order two
years ago prohibiting its agents from
also representing members of the
Western Bureau companies. Olsness
ruled that the order was illegal but
was defeated when the case was tried
in the federal court here.
Affects Other States
Olsness appealed the case to the
federal co,a,t of appeals and last
winter the legislature passed law
covering the subject. If the statute
is declared valid the case in federal
court will be dropped. Olsness said
the North Dakota case is Of far
reaching Importance as several other
midwestern states are facing the
same problem.
The states interest, Olsness said,
is to protect insurance agents who
have been representing members of
both groups and whose businesses
would he damaged by q forced Sc
paration,

Canada Dipided--United
States is to Blame For
DOf11i1liOnS NeW Issue

Toronto. Oct. 23.--Canada. on the
eve of federal election contest
avowedly fought to determine whcth-
er the dominion will erect pro
hibitive tariff" wall against the
United States, goes to the polls on
Thursday, Oct. 90, in uncertainty.
There is no other real issue facing
the electorate than that involved in
the alleged dcpopulation of the Do
minion through migration across the
international boundary.
Conservatives charge the exodus is
due to Premier W. l.. Mackenzie
Kings low tariff policy. This, they
declare. has resulted in the wholesale
closing Of Canadian factories and the
exodus southwark of hundreds of
thousands of the Dominion's citizens
because of inability to obtain a live
lihood in their own land.
Meighen Leads Opposition
The night of Oct. 90 will yield up
government out of the political
vortex. But whether it will be the
old one of Premier King or IA new
one headed by Rt. Hon. Arthur
Meighcn, who was premier in the
coalitioniSt war administration, none
will predict.
A tariff wall "as high rs Haman's
gallows." so high that "Uncle Sam
will wear out his goatee trying to
chin over it," is the demand of the
Meighen conservatives. The prime
minister, while contending that other
issues also are before the electorate
such as the Canadian National
Railways, immigration, and the re-
form Of the Senate-tacitly comedies
that the tariff is the paramount
question.
This means that the election
characterized generally as one of the
most important in this country since
Confederation-will be fought out
on traditional liberal rs against ira
ditional conservative principles, on
the age-old question of projections. or
free trade.
1t is nothing unusual that relations
with the United States constitute the
focus of Canadian election fight.
Canada. though an integral part of
the Britannia commonwealth. is geo
graphically part of North America,
and her politico- economic destinies
are inseparably bound up with those
of the United States.
In the election of 1911, liberal
administration under Sir Wilfred
Laurier went down to defeat on the
reciprocity issue. The cry of IAN
nexation" was raised then. The cry
of Economic annexation" is being
raised today. And the conservative

Progressive "A facinr
One thing only is fairly certain
with regard to the impo oldir~ elec-
tion: that whether the liberals or
the conservatives happen to gain the
uscendancy and cntitle themselves
to being styled the party in over,
they will need the votes rf the third
party or progressive members to
initiate any legislation.
Indeed. they may be i"ptnIcat on
those votes for the very life Of the
government.
The progre essivcS-the agrarian
party from the west-actually won
IA larger number of seats in the 1921
election than did the conservatives.
But the conservatives nominally
were the "opposition' to the party
in power nevertheless.
