PIONEERS ACTIVE IN
| BATTLE FOR CAPITAL
Tatley Appeals to old-Timers to
Rally Their Descendants
to Defense

Although the fight to keep the
capital in Bismarck has been led by
younger men. there are plenty Of evil
dences that the fire which burned in
the breasts of North DakOta's pio-
neers still lives and that those surviv-
ors Of the early days are active in the
fight to preserve what they builded.
A letter written by Henry Tatley
resident Of Mclean and Burleigh
counties, serves as illustration OF the
point. Tatley homesteaded in Nc
Lean county in 1883 and in q letter
written to the editor Of the Washburn
Leader recently he appealed to then,
and to their sons and daughters to
stand fast and vote No on the capital,
Revealing the depth of his own
feelings on the matter. Tatley says:
II have devoted the best part OF
my life to the settlement and develop
ment of the Missouri Slope. and now
when the evening tide Of life Is come.
it is disheartening indeed to me and I
know it must be to all Of the other
old pioneers to have this dastardly
attempt made to ruin everything we
have worked for for the past fifty
years. No racketeering venture ever
pcrpetrated in Chicago has been SO
brazen. selfish or planned on such q
large scale"

Anti-Hoarding Drive
Pleasing to Hoover

Warrington, March 12.-RHPres-
ident Hoover Is highly pleased with
the success so far Of the national
boarding campaign, but he
wants 1t kept up until every COM
munity in the country has been en-
listed In the drive and the last idle
dollar has been sent back to work.
Explaining his view Of the drive he
has likened to war, the president
Friday told newspapermen while
1895 communities have been organ
lied by the national unit under Col
onel Frank Knox Of Chicago, the
work Is "only beginning"
He reported no total Of the money
returned to banks and credit cham
neA, but said the drive already has
proved its worth and Is contributing
definitely to the dissipation Of fear
and apprehension and to the restora-
ton Of confidence"
The positive results obtained, he
said, were evidenced by increased
hank deposits and the purchase Of
the governments special baby bonds.

Midnight as Six Are Re-

Lisbon, N. D.. March 12.-(R-
Three Lisbon young people drowned
early Saturday when the car in which
they were riding broke through the
ice on the Sheyenne river near here
which they were crossing on their
way home from q dance.
The dead are Lillian Arne, John
Miller, and Clinton Seelig. ranging in
age from II to 10 years. Three 9TH
ers in the car, an enclosed sedan, who
escaped by breaking through the TOP
Of the machine to gain the safety Of
the bank after the narrowing exper-
fence, were Gladys and Arthur Arne
and Clifford Wright.
The accident took place at a point
In the stream 10 miles east and four
miles north of Lisbon, where cars
have been driving all winter.
The six young people had attended
q dance at scoville school and had
left the hall shortly after miSnight.
Electing to cross the river rather
than to 60 a longer distance where q
bridge was located, the car was driven
on to the ice of the Sheyenne.
Midway across the ice gave way
and the car sank Ia seven feet of wa
ter. Wright and Gladys and Arthur
Arne smashed their way out of the
trapped machine and clambered over
the ice-choked river to safety.
After futile efforts to rescue the
doomed trio. they went to nearby
farmhouse and obtained help. The
bodies were recovered.
No funeral arrangements have been
made. .:s

skirmish between Chinese cavalry and
Japanese troops took place on the
front line five miles north of Rating

Japanese forces lost no men.
Additional thousands Of japanese
troops were landed In transports at
Woosung and sent to places on the
30-mile front around Shanghai.
japanese diplomats said they hoped
for the best from peace discussions
but the army went grimly about pre-
pairing for the worst.
The japanese consulate said its in
vestigation into the beating Of Miss
Rose Marlowe. American missionary
teacher, q week ago revealed one Jap
anese civilian was responsible. They
said he had been sentenced TO IS days
In jail. The U. 8. consulate was noti-

motion of Judge James H. Wilkerson
Of Chicago to the circuit court. He Is
vigorously opposed by organized labor
