A requisition asking for the ex-

Governor Hunt. The requisition is
addressed to the governor of New

According to affidavits attached

ing sufficient funds in the latter

The check was given in April,

Although dry, BOrah offered a
series Of amendments to the Edge re-
solution which caH for a referendum
only on the subject of modifying the
VOlstead act.
Borah's resolution would ask for
three specific opinions:
1. do you favor such an amend
ment to the Constitution of the Unit
ed States as will eliminate, or Who'll
ly repeal, the YOlstead act?"
2. eff you favor amending the
VOlstead act, is it your desire, not
withstanding such amendments, that
the law remain so as to prohibit the
manufacture and sale of intoxicating
beverages in the United States?"
3. If you favor amending the Vol
stead act so as to permit the manu-
facture and sale of light wines and
beer, Is it your understanding that
such light wines and beer are to be
limited i'm their alcOhlic contest as to
be nOnintOXicating?"

Exams Tor Agents
Within six months all agents must
pass civil service requirements, uR-
less they have already done so, to

A survey Of the approaching con-
gressiOnal elections today disclosed
that from One-third to One-half of the
voters of the country are going to
have an opportunity to express their
convictions on modification of the
VOlstead act this year.
The wet and dry question is enter
ing into more congressional contests
this year than in any election since
the adoption of the eighteenth amend
ment. This much is conceded by both
sides. The drys blame the continued
agitation in Congress, and the "wet''
newspaper polls for it.
Campaign Issue.
The keenest contests, and the ones
which will rivet the attention of the
country, will take place in Pennsyl-
vania and Illinois. In these two
states the issue is dominant and clear
cut. In Maryland, New Jersey, New

the issue is less dominant but never
theless strongly felt and in isolated
sections throughout the states the
issue is present in more or less viru-
lent form.

SENATOR ANDERSON
VISITS PLENTYWOOD

Senator ]. w. Anderson of Sidney
was a welcome visitor to PIentywOOd
Wednesday and Thursday of this
week when he called on and chatted
with old friends. He has been ac-
lively engaged in farming from the
time the election was over a year and
a half ago until about a month ago
when he made a visit to some states
in the middle west. He examined
farming conditions in Illinois, Wis
cOnsin and Michigan and reports that
tenantry is on the increase in the
states mentioned. The old land own
ing farmers are rapidly disappearing
in face of the new landIOrdism Of the
mortgage companies and the banks.
During his visit to PlentywOOd,
Senator Anderson held a long Con-
ference with Mr.. BOuck, who was in
PlentywOOd, and representatives of
the Progressive Farmers from other
nearby counties. The conference de-
cided that a number of picnics would
be put on in North Dakota and Mon
tana during the summer months un-
der the auspices of the Progressive
Farmers to be addressed by Senator
Anderson, William BOuck and other
speakers.
Further information about this IN.

A FULL DINNER TABLE
FOR THE FARMER
BY VIM. BOuck

Dy w HE DOuCk
On the editorial page of this pa
per is a cartoon which will illus
trate what the farmer may expect
when organized, and when his in
formation is comprehensive enough
to protect himself.
An old farmer, "Uncle Sam" is
sitting by table where nice things
to eat are set out for him-and
while he waits he reads the Pro-
duceTs News, the Progressive Far
mers' paper, which is always full of
good things for him to read-sO
full that dinner waits while he
reads the paper.
He knows that his dinner is safe,
because organization and discipline
have kept the fat thief away, who
is so frightened himself at this
great Progressive Farmer that he
is impOtent to do anything, and
tries to frighten him away by wav-
ing a newspaper (prObably the Far

Opportunity always waits upon

The heavy collections for delin-
quent taxes recently has contributed
much towards putting the general
fund in such good shape. During the
months of February and March over
$4,000 have been collected in delin-
quent taxes. Under threat of having
their land appropriated by the coun-
ty for taxes many nonresident mort
gage companies send checks to the
county treasurer for the total amount
of their taxes.
County Treasurer's Statement.
For the first tine in the history
of Sheridan county, the general fund
Of the county has a sufficient balance
to take up all outstanding registered
warrants, and in addition thereto,
with what revenues accrue from
month to month, also enough to take
care Of the warrants for the balance
of the year as they are issued" said
County Treasurer TOrstenson today.
Continuing Mr.. Torstenson said:
"This is a very pleasing situation,
considering that this was not brought
about by the floating of large bond
issues as in the past, but by the
careful budgeting Of expenditures
and consistent building up of re-
sources. Also considering that the
general fund at the time that D. J
Olson, former treasurer, took over
the Office, was close to S10O,OOO.OO il

Money Lost In Banks
This deplorable condition which tn,
/ general fund was in at that time wa.
not any exception, but true of tn,

county funds. Thousands of dollar,
of warrants were registered agains

time, were sunk in such traps as tn,
