No clue was found to the robbers until about a week atter when a resident of Hubbard county living near Guthrie told a Pioneer representative that he had found a number of coat hanges and a number of small furs in the woods near his home. This information was immedi- ately given the sherift’s office at Be- midji, who in turn informed the sher- iff of Hubbard county, Other circumstances leading to def- inite clues were also related by the discoverer of the furs which led to the arrest of a man named Stewart, in Bemidji. Stewart was taken to Walker and given a hearing, in the course of which information was ob- tained which led to the finding of the furs near Ranier, where they had been taken for safe-keeping. Deputy Sheriff George Shea went to Ranier with Sheriff Kennedy of Walker, and recovered practicilly the entire stock of furs which ‘had been stolen and they were forward- ed from Ranier under orders from Sheriff Kennedy of Hubbard county.

TO DOMINATE WORLD TRADE UNDER NEW ORDER Member of English'Parliament Says America Will Soon Be Dominating Force By Clyde A. Beals (United Press Staft Correspondent) London, Sept. 1.—Sir Kdgar Reese Jones, English author, lawyer and member of parliament who has just returned from the Unjted States, sees America as coming to be a tremend- ous force in the markets of the world through the thoroughness and vigor of the people. “The resources of America in pro- duction, in finance and in the geat qualities of her people,” said Sir Kd- gar, “‘must mean, when the world set- tles down, that she will be a tremend- ous force in the markets of the world, and probably a dominating force.” Sir Edgar feels, on the whole, how- ever, that America is at persent in a maze of financial and industrjal daif ficulties. Her expanded mercantile fleet, ha pointed out, has become a financial drain. Great quantijties of exportable goods were stored in wa houses with no demand, and in sor cases owing to the stagnant markets, goods had even been returned to America. It had been found, he declared, that American banking methods were not as suitable for internationdl com mece as those of London. This, he sald wa sdue to lack of experience. ‘America had, he believed, however, learned thoroughly its financial and industrial dependence on the rest of the world. et S Ba i K e S O TV D) sume and pay for goods,” said Sir Edgar, “is as ruinous to America as ivids to any other country. “Even raw. products, like cotton, wheat, tobacco, sugar, copper and spelter, have brought disaster to all those engaged in' producing them in the Unjted States.

Groat (United Press Staff Corresporfdant) Berlin, Sept. 1.—Pacifists believe the old war-making crowd is trying to train German youth for a new “Kkreig,” through comptsory physi- cal culture, B The draft of a law which the na- tiopal committee for physjcal culture has made had led them to believe this law would merely be a substitute for the compulsory service law, now dead. This draft provides that children phall be trained throughowt their school years until they become of age. and that no one shall have papers | for working positions unless he can prove he has fulfilled the necessary training, either in schools, in turn or sport societies. The Versailles treaty provides against organization of societies for war training. And the pacifists contend this new aw would not only serve to upbuild » youth for a new war, but would place restrictions on the freedom with which a workman could get a position. On the other hand, pro- moters hold that it is well to build a strong nation, and point to the overwhelming post-war sport move- ment as evidence that Germany wants body-huilding. , The “Freiheit,” organ of the Inde- pendent Socialists, writes: “We do not desire to appear to be enemies of sport; we have too often asserted that for workers it is advisable to have a harmonijous upbuilding of the body. Labor, however, would do well to remember that it is high time to make up for the war losses in spir- itual strength.” CANADIAN FREIGHTER Soate s st L AR messages here report the missing Can- adian freighter, Canadian Importer, found adrift on the Pacific with 25 men ahoard.

President- H. M. Clark gave a most interesting outline of the work thus far' accomplished and enthusiastically elaborated upon the future plans of the fair associa- tion, He emphatically impressed upon the members that this was no: ordi- nary county fair, but an extraordi- nary District Fair—a Northern Min- nesota Fair ,if you please. When you compare the program of this. fair with that of any other, it may be seen that it far exceeds all county fairs nm: runs most state fairs a close sec- ond. Mr. Clark briefly outlined the work being done in the livestock depart« ment, of which he is chairman. “We will have the pick of the best horses in the country shown at this fairy” said Mr. Clark. “Draft horses that will compare with the best shown anywhere on earth will be seen here. Not only will the quality be there;but we will have them in large numbers. Our worry is, ‘where can we house them? Indications are that the new barns, now under construction, will be filled to overflowing and that it will be necessary to use the Jack- pine trees in the new addition for hittehing posts.” He invited the members to go out to the fair grounds to see the activity in building construction going on, and deglaredythat-eontributors- would- he delighted with what their money is being spent for. The big, new grandstand is near- ing completion. It will seat 2,500 people and on the ground floor will provide for 24 booths which will be used for industrial exhibits. The sec- ond floor of the grandstand will be given over to the Women’s depart- ment., The school exhibits will be shown ini the old agriewltural bullding, which is also to be used for the farm- ers’ club exhibits. The booths on the grandstand, first floor, are practically all spoken for, nccor(’lg to A. T. Carlson, who is in chargd of this department. The sec- ond floor is in charge of Mrs. C. D. Lucas, who states that every booth is full and that additional space is de- sired by her department. Among the features of this department will be bread judging contests, to be held on Wednesday of the fair, a baby show on Thursday and a baking dem- onstration on Friday. Public health work will be carried on the full threg days. One of the feature booths will be decorated by two Indian women who will have an Indian weaver weaving Tpgs, states Mrs, Lucas. Other sur- prises are also in store for visitors'in this department. The pride of the grounds will be Mr. Clark’s press building to be con- structed near the entrance with ga~ bles and to be painted white and green, He-has some interesting fea< tures provided for this building ina cluding press stand, long _distanca telephone booths and a general ins formation burgau. 4 “Kvery department I8 already (Continuea on Page 6) DAIL EIREANN REPLY SENT TO LLOYD GEORGE P i (By United Pressy Dublin, Sept. 1.—The reply of tha Dail Eireann to the latest British note wag forwarded to Lloyd George last night, officers announced here to< day.
