Twichell in I. v. A. internal affairs

convention talk had it thai John

crowd agreed that Norwegian name
was needed near the head Of the

graphically right, that is, from the

The Cain adherents met the de-

Much Milling Around
Altogether, there was more mill
ing around" than an I. v. A. conven-
ton has seen in many years. Most
speculation conferred on the COVER
norship but there were aspirantS for
other offices in plenty with indica-
tons there would be candidates TOR
all state offices not already held by
the I. v. AS.
If there was one significant thing
below the surface, however, it was
the fact many delegates were here
merely to keep their hands in politics
until something more to their liking
than either Of the present major
alignments develops. At least a'score
of delegates admitted privately that
they are not satisfied with present
conditions and would like to have q
new deal"
Too Much Organization
These hailed the apparent difficult
ties of the Nonpartisans with plea
sure as necessary prerequisite to q
new arrangement. Their complaint
is that politics now are organized too
much for the officeholderS and not
enough for the taxpayers and many
expressed the view that North Dako-
ia needs nothing so much as poll
tical purgative to get both old groups
out of the way.
Such individuals professed to be
looking for a new Moses to lead them
to new promised land and expressed
little hope of finding him In either
of the established groups. They were
xoc the most part, young men who
have come to the front In the last 10
years and to whom the ancient feuds
mean little or nothing.
They look toward the future more
than at the past and they feel the
people of the state are with them
in spirit.

Big HORN SURVIVOR
Death Of Gen. Godfrey Leaves
Col. varnum as Last Sur.
viving Officer

With the passing OF Brigadier Gen.
eral Edward 8. Godfrey, SO, veteran
of the Indian wars, Colonel Charles A
Varnum Of San Francisco is the only
surviving officer of the historical ex-
petition into the little Big Horn
writes William A. Falconer, pioneer
Bismarck man on a visit in Leaven-
worth, Kas.
Both Godfrey and Varnum were
with the expedition but were not as
signed to the Custer detachment.
In 1892, Godfrey wrote history OF
the Custer massacre which is consid-
cred to be the most authentic and
complete history Of that tragedy, Fal-
coner said.
Godfrey was in charge of the cele-
bration held June Is, 1876, on the
18th anniversary of the battle of the
Little Big Horn.
In an article written by the Asso-
ciated Press Godfrey is credited with
escaping the fate of Custer by ignor-
ing the orders of superior officer.
BY his initiative he was believed to
have saved the lives of the men un-
der Major Reno.
Guarding an advanced position af-
ter Custer and his men had been
wiped out, he received orders to re-
treat. AS the Indians were being
heavily reinforced, Godfrey sensed
the danger of a repetition of the Gus
ter massacre. Disregarding his or
ders. he covered to, troops that re-
treated to his position, halted the In
dams, drove them to cover, and then
with his own men fell back.
Godfrey retired in 1907 with several
medals for bravery in action.
During his youth, as lieutenant
in the. army, he was stationed at Fl.
Rice, Ft. Mead, and TT. Lincoln, all in
Dakota territory.

ventory. In developing this graph,
it has come out very strongly that
every third year is = big automo-
bile year. The biggest automobile
year was 1929 when 100000 cars
were produced for American con-
sumption. This year the industry
will produce somewhere between
100000 and 100000 cars. AS
1882 is three years after 1929, If
economic conditions were normal
we could be sure we would do a
tremendous business. because the
third year is the time when the
bulk of the replacing takes place."
He added that there are factors
at work that make it uncertain how
big the year will be, instancing that
money is being hoardeL from lack
OF confidence and this takes away
some purchasing power that we
would otherwise have. while family
budgets are being cut on account
OF changes In income conditions,
which again means that purchasing
power for the automobile, like
good many other things, will be
knocked down." AS result, he
said, it was necessar, to measure
what statistically would be a big
year against a practical considera-
ton Of the curtailment of expendi-
lures which is going on and deter
mine how big the year will be un-
der these circumstances.
From long haul standpoint, re-
CARELESS Of how many automobiles
are sold in 1892, we are storing up
a big business for the future" Mr..
Grant said. There will be fewer
automobiles sold in 1881 than will
go to the scrap heap. With H.
100000 car-years out of the inven-
tory, nine percent more gasoline
was used up to August 1, 1881, than
was used, in 1880. With fewer au-
tomobiles. the people must have
been running them faster and
longer to consume the additional
gasoline. This means that we have
some 22,000.000 people working
hard to make . fine business for
our industry when Their is an eco
nomic recovery.

q handful Of beans"
After this queer request he ex-
planned that "beans" need certain
kinds Of air to live and that he was
going to have certain ones from
each class carry on an experiment
to see which was best.
For experimenters he appointed
Leroy Thamkey of the second per-
iod class and Dick Galloway Of the
third period class.
The test consists of five bottles
with ten soaked "beans' of about
the same size in each bottle. One
bottle is filled with pure oxygen,
another with pure nitrogen, an
other with pure carbon dioxide,
another with air, and still another
is vacuum.
The question is, which bottle

ASSEMBLY MEETING

In the student body meeting last
Friday, Reverend Schultz gave q
very interesting talk on the OPP
portunities open to the students OF
today. He mentioned the splendid
system of schools in this country,
and the greater opportunities it
affords us than were offered to
our grandparents, who received ed
locations usually not exceeding the
third or fourth grade. Schools, the
Rev. Schultz said, in part, are CIV
ing us widened and improved
outlook on life, helping us to be
able to seize opportunities as they
presented themselves. No one
should let the opportunity of go
ing to school and improving ones
self, go by.
He divided students into two
groups; the tourist type, which
just drifts along, not taking adj
vantage of any opportunity until
it is too late to. Then there is the
citizen, or ideal type. He takes all
the good opportunities which come
along. He "makes hay while the
sun Shines" realizing that time is
his most valuable asset.
Rev. Schultz urged the students
to make themselves master Of
whatever they are trying to do, in
school or any other phase of life.

without q statistical background.
Using the best sense We can, We
have drawn conclusion from the
figures we have. and l am willing
to make the statement that as far
as the conduct of our business for
the first half OF 1892 is concerned,
we shall set the induces somewhat
higher than the actualities OF 1881.
We are willing to set our advertis-
ing budgets and our selling expense
on that kind of induces. With eco
nomic conditions as they are, and
since the obsolescence is so great
and we have sunk so low in this
year'G sales. we figure that the first
half of 1882 must necessarily be
better than was the first half of
1881"

he used were an eight-foot ladder,
topper, and pruning saw. A
topper is a pair Of long handled
pruning shears with curved blades
and only one cutting edge. A prun-
ing saw is very different from the
average saw. It has a curved
blade about foot long and the
teeth are sloped backward so that
the saw eats as it is pulled instead
of pushed. The handle folds in
against the teeth SO that it can
easily be slowed in the pocket
without danger.
He showed the class haw to cut
away the branches that grew on
the lower side of the leader. These
have to be removed because they
are in the way of putting on spray
and do not get enough sunlight to
produce good apples. He also told
them that cross limbs in center
of tn tree should be removed to
let sunlight in better and also to
eliminate high picking. He show
ed them the way to tell a fruit
bud from the leaf bud by the
plumpness.
He was asked how high he
would head trees if he was going
to plant new trees. His opinion
was that the best heighth would
be twenty inches and not above
three feet. He would head his trees
for convenience in cultivating,
picking, spraying and thinning.
He added that he would head
the trees with just four main lead
ers from the main limb. The boys
enjoyed the demonstration but not
the weather and were very glad
to get back to the nice warm
school house at eleven thirty.
