THOUSANDS PAY
LAST RESPECTS
TO DEAD. CHIEF
Body Borne to Resting Place
Following Municipal
Services
BUXTON FRIENDS SORROW
Crowds Gather at Every Sta
tion on Route to Express
Grief

Grand Forks, N. D., Sept. 1.-GA
Citizens from all parts Of North Da-
kota- participated today in the last
services over the body Of the late
Governor A. G. Sorlie and his inter.
ment in the ceremony here.
Simple religious services were fol-
lowed by the short talks by Rev. Or
lando Ingvoldstad. C~erd Forks. and
Rev. David Stoeve, Fargo.
Then came the proc ssion to the
cemetery, thousands marching be-
hind the hearse which took the body
Of the late executive to its last rest
ing place.
Thousands Of his former townsfolk
Friday barred their heads and stood
in sorrowful silence as the remains
Of the late Governor A. G. Sorlie
were returned to his native city for
burial.
Hundreds Of others from Grand
Forks and neighboring cities passed
the bier of the late executive in the
city hall. A mass. Of flowers were
placed about the bier, those brought
from Bismarck having faded during
the long, hot journey. They were the
tribute Of the friends who had seen
the late governor rise first to busi-
ness prominency and financial sue
cess, and then to the governorship
Of his state.
Public funeral services were held
in the city auditorium 1T o'clock
today, and the late governors body
was then placed in Memorial Park.
the Grand Forks cemetery.
Although it is nearly four years
since the late governor left Grand
Forks to assume the duties Of tho
governorship, residents Of his home
city paid his memory the respects u
long association. Firm 4riendship
had endeared him to nearly everyone
in Grand Forks who know a.. G..
Sorlie personally. Silent md respect
full, they stood with barred heads as
the funeral cortege passed through
the main streets Of the city on the
brief journey from the special train
which brought the body here to the
city hall.
Muffled Drums Beat
Muffled drums and the notes Of
Chopin funeral march lent i'm.
pressiveness to the greeting which
Grand Forks gave its illustrious for
mer citizen.
Very impressive was the greeting
at Buxton, where the governor first
entered the business life Of North
Dakota. He worked in Z bank and
kept store there, finally leaving for
the larger commercial field which
Grand Forks offered. His wife was
born and reared there, and one 81

EAST HOLDS SPOTLIGHT
BY BYRON PRICE

N<ASSUCI0vSQ IG08 0l0II V1IIeIJ
Washington. Sept. 1--CR-Be-
wildering swirls and eddies, stirred
into motion months ago, still trouble
the political seas as the parties ap-
proach the necessity Of choosing def
ifitely what course they will sail, for
better or for worse, in the campaign
for the presidency.
The recent clearer definition Of is
sues, and a measurable revealment Of
the personal qualities Of the candi-
dates, have not quieted the raging
cross-currents Of controversy. Each
presidential nominee continues to
lose the allegiance Of members Of
his own party circle, and to gain re-
cruits from the opposition. Conflict
ing reports, puzzling rumors Of good
and evil import, and real political
surprises follow one another in con-
slant procession.
It is probable that within another
week, Mr.. Hoover and Gov. Smith
each will have disclosed in what
sector he proposes to strike. Both
now are deep in consultation with
their followers, and the season
around Labor Day should see these
preparations begin to bear definite
results.
Will Stump East
It goes without saying that what
ever other decisions they may make,
both Smith and Hoover will reserve
a considerable part Of their stump
speaking for the east. No plan Of
campaign has been brought forward
in either party which does not con-
template 4 hammering offensive
along the northern Atlantic sea-
board.
It is upon this section more than
any other that political attention has
been centered during the present
week. In Washington, Mr.. Hoover
began = long series of discussions
with party aides by talking over his
prospects in New York and New
Jersey. Gov. Smith, returning north
ward from q holiday on the Jersey
shore, stopped for a short speech at
Newark, and later in the week es-
tablished an eastern contact with
the farm problem by appearing at
the New York State fair at Syra-
cuse. Hoover's running-mate, Sem
ator Curtis, also was on tour in the
east, visiting Syracuse, Harrisburg
and other cities.
Carrying into effect his original
proposal for an intensive drive to
overcome opposition in the south,
Senator Robinson, the Democratic
vice-presidential nominee. will begin
at once swing through Dixie. In
his speech Of acceptance at Hot
Springs Thursday he featured farm
relief and prohibition, and he now
proposes to further appeal to his
fellow-drys in the south not to quit
the democratic ticket because Of the
modification views Of Gov. Smith.
He argues that Smith, in the white
house, would be firmly committed to
strict prohibition enforcement, and
powerless to induce congress or the
states to impair the law.
Northwest Worries
There appears q growing belief
among the Democratic leaders that
a real party drive in the northwest
would be worth the candle. Chair

Philadelphia, Sept. 1.-(R-The
finding Of grand jury that police
are on the pay rolls Of bootleggers
and have received hundreds Of thou.

The jury's report says also that
liquor interests have been protected
for years by IN alliance Of police and
misguided" politicians, and that the
menace Of gunner and gangsterS
threatens to make this city = second

in the streets and human beings the

The grand jury was called two
weeks ago to investigate gang muir
ders, bootlegging and other unde.-
world activities.
Judge Edwin o. Lewis after read.
ing the report granted the jury's re-
quest 70 continue its investigation.
Attack Rum Rings
Rum rings must be broken up, he
said in addressing the jurors, their
trail Of murder and corruption must
Be eliminated. II the police depart
ment is not purged, he said, by the
proper city officials and the civil
service commission, he will appoint
. commission under the city charter
that will have power to subpoena
any witness, no matter what his sta
tion, to testify.

with other data showing that records
were kept e payments to police
ranging from $500 Z month, and up

The disclosures he said were only
q scratch on the surface" Of what
further investigation Of the seized
books Of Marks, Weinberg and Com

veal. Thus far his information con-
cerned . single Philadelphia alcohol
plant.
1T would appear from this rec
ord" he said, ."thAt these people
over . period Of five months paid
$29, 400 to persons designated "cops. !"
Almost Unbelievable
The grand jury, which will recess
over Labor Day, reported that the
information it had gathered from 40
witnesses was amazing in its char
acter and almost unbelievable in its
significance" IA,
1T shows clearly" the report
continued, "that there has existed in
Philadelphia during the last several
years . group Of lawless men who
have violated the law on . wholesale
scale, who have Haunted the law
with the corrupt connivancA Of police
officials high and low, resulting in
the enrichment Of its members to
the extent Of millions Of dollars,
''As = regularly conducted part Of
this unlawful scheme notorious
criminals, gunmen and thugs have
been put upon the streets Of Phil
adelphia with deadly weapons, who
have not hesitated to indulge in
bloodshed and wanton brutality.
"These men without apparent fear
Of apprehension have committed
bribery, robbery, assault, murder; in
fact have run the whole gamut Of
crime openly and brazenly."
