except that Eric Eneberg, forward,
is an uncanny basket shot. The
dopesters, however, are favoring
Valley City to win this contest. The
general opinion was that Fargo
would have little trouble disposing
Of Rolla.
The dopesters were cautious, how
ever. about picking q winner, ad-
hitting that any team good enough

enough to give any other team in
the state hard battle.
For the second time in succession
Jim Nichols Of the physical educa-

Fusion Idea Attacked
Meanwhile Democrats throughout
the state arc preparing for the state
convention to be held March % ct
Valley City. The purpose Of the
convention, as outlined in > circular
letter sent out by Chairman Hughes
i Il. selection or Endorsement Of .
ticket of state officers. That some
opposition to the proposal to place
. Democratic. ticket in the field will
develop, however, is considered GER
tain by some Democrats here. These
favor the fusion idea by which the
Real or Independent Republicans in
an effort to defeat the candidates
for Republican nominations running
under the banner Of the Nonpartisan
League.
In his letter Hughes attacks the
fusion idea, declaring that "The
past 10 years has found the major
ity of Democrats in the state regis
tering and voting the Republican
ticket in the primary election. It
is the belief Of those who have fol-
lowed this course for many years
tn: the result has been disastrous
to the Democratic party-bringing
about almost humiliation Of said
party in this state. This is a presi-
Dental year and those who have
followed the trend Of the times and
noted the almost hopeless failure Of
the party now in power cannot but
see q glimmering hope for the
cause Of Democracy this year Of
1928.
Urged to Vote as Democrats
ut is to be hoped that the Demo-
Gratis interested in q righteous
cause and the upbuilding once more
of our party in this state will reg
lister and vote as Democrats in the
primary election June q, 1898. No
alliance of authority has been made
by the Democratic party with any
other party in the state. Altogether
too long have we been q pawn upon
the political chessboard of North
Dakota. But with the prevailing
harmony within our party and q
strict adherence to Democratic prin-
ciples, the time will be but short
when we will take our place as one
Of the major political parties Of the
state"
The convention allots one dele
gate at-large to each county in the
state with one additional delegate
for each 100 votes cast for D. NJ.
! Holmes for governor at the last
election.
In view of the fact that the state
executive committee of the Demo.
cratic party, at meeting in Fargo
last September, voted to continue
the fusion arrangement with the
Real or Independent Republicans,
the Valley City convention is ex-
pected to strike sharp line Of de-
marcation between the fusionists
and anti-fusionists.
Since the Nonpartisan League
fight began 10 years ago the mum.
Der of Democratic voters registered
at primaries has decreased steadily.
A large number of Democrats join
ed the Nonpartisan League and
have been voting for Nonpartisan
candidates running for Republican
nominations. Another large group
of Democrats opposed to the league,
joined with the Independents and
have been voting at primary cleo
tions for men seeking Republican
nominations in opposition to Nom
PARTISAN League candidates.
The result has been that Repub-
lican nomination has been consider
ed, in recent years, the equivalent Of
election.

guaranty against those conflicts be-
tween nations which have periodi-
cally broken out since the dawn Of
history. In addition to treaties
there must be an aroused public
conscience against the utter horror
and frightfulness Of war. The peo-
pies Of the world must enjoy
peaceful mind, as it has been said,
and treaties such as I have dis
cussed, and effor' Of statesmen
to advance the cause Of world peace,
can only be regarded 10 = portion
Of the problem. ! am not 50 blind
as to believe that the millennium
has arrived, but / do believe that
the world is making great strides
toward the pacific adjustments Of
international disputes.
Explaining that in the present
treaty negotiations It was the pur-
pose Of the United States in so far
as possible to eliminate war as
factor in international relations
Mr.. Kellogg said the United States
cannot obligate itself in advance to
use its armed forces against any
other nation of the world. The
United States does not believe that
the peace Of the world or Of Europe,
depends upon or can be assured by
treaties Of military alliance, the
futility Of which as guarantors Of
peace is repeatedly demonstrated in
the pages of history, he said.
Discusses Arbitration Treaty
The arbitration treaty with
France, recently ratified by the SEN
ate, as well as other treaties, were
discussed at length by Mr.. Kellogg
who said it was difficult for him to
see by what claim a government
could properly request arbitration Of
disputes covered by the four excep-
tions stipulated in the treaty, includ-
ing the Monroe Doctrine, since few,
If any, would present questions JUS
ticiable in their nature.
81 know Of but one other form Of
treaty which can be concluded for
the purpose Of preventing war;" con.
tinued Mr.. Kellogg, land that is q
treaty in which the parties specific
ally bind themselves not to resort to
war. It is this kind Of treaty which
people have in mind when they dis
cuss treaties for outlawing war, and
It is . novel idea in modern interna-
tional relations"
Outlining the proposal Of the
French premier, Aristide BRAND,
for q bilateral treaty which would
condemn recourse to war and re-
nounee il as an instrument Of nation-
al policy, Mr.. Kellogg said this Inn
portant and inspiring proposal was
carefully and sympathetically stud
led.

tated to take the initiative IN pro-
posing such q treaty to Europe" he
continued, "the invitation from
France afforded US an opportunity to
examine anew the whole question of
world peace and to determine in what
practical manner we could best CO.
operate"

GENEVA, March 21.-Hugh Gibson,
American delegate to the Preparatory
Disarmament Commission Conference,
today presented the American scheme
for the outlawry of war before the
League of Nations for the first time
and at the same time he vigorously de-
nounced the Russian proposals for COM
plete disarmament.
THE American Government believes
whole-heartedly that multilateral
treaty outlawing war would be well
coined by the whole world, and believes
that such a treaty would be more sue
ceSsful in attaining world peace than
any scheme of disarmament. however
drastic" Mr.. Gibson declared.
The problem is to create confidence
in peace by psychological changes and
then disarmament can follow, Mr.. Glib
son said
AssaiIs Russian Proposals.
Mr. Gibson went much further than
Lord Cushendun Of Great Britain in in
siSting that the Russian proposals be
scrapped.
The Russian delegates intimated
that they looked for American support
for their scheme on the grounds OF
sincerity, logic and consistency" he
said. Il must remove any possibility of
a misunderstanding 1t is exactly as
question of sincerity. logic and con-
sistency that the United States disbe-
lieves in the Russian proposals and be-
lieves instead in its own"
The point of Lord Cushendun'S
speech yesterday was neither TO refuse
nor accept the Russian scheme. but to
refer 1t to committee. Mr.. Gibson to-
day Scoffed at this compromise and in
sisted that the Soviet proposals be dis
missed forthwith.
Opposes ProlOnging Discussion.
I'VE have had since December TO
consider the Russian draft" Mr.. Gibson
said. 1T is not our method to refer
matters TO committee, but To submit
them TO the governments. II they are
not acceptable for general discussion at
