Tis con- dition is ascribed to the B newspaper Dill which establishes preferred class of newspapers, to be selected by a state printing commis- sion as the sole recipient of all pub- lic and private legal and official printing and advertiing. Heretofore there have been three official newspapers in each county which have been the legal organs for the publication of all county business. These newspapers have been selected by the county commissioners. June 26 two of these newspapers will be eliminated in each county, and one of- ficial newspapers in each county will be designated by the state printing and publication commission. In this one newspaper will be printed all state, county, township, municipal and school district public advertis- ing, notices, etc.; all legal services of every description; bank statements and every other notice or publication of any type that may be required by law. The publication of any of this matter in any newspaper other than that designated by the state printing and publication commission will be illegal. This aristocracy of 53 county news- papers is branded by, independent publishers to be America’s first -real example of a “kept press,” a term which league organs delight in apply- ing to their opponents. It is esti- mated that each of these “official” newspapers . will receive in public printing alone no less than $10,000 and possibly $20,000 or more per annum. In addition each of these newspapers is expected to greatly increase its cir- culation through the fact {hat no mat- ter how far from the seat of. publi- cation a taxpayer may reside, he can find legal notices affecting him and his property only in this one official newspaper. The league has established a league newspaper in more than half of the counties of the’ state, and it is ex- pected that in each instance where such newspaper. exists the state pub- lication and printing committee will designatesit as the. official organ. In a large number of these newspapers legislators who voted in favor of the Brinton bill own stock and were shareholders at the time-they voted for the ‘measure. * Inaddition to the 206 official count: newspapers which will be principally affected by this act, 100 or more in- dependent papers which have not been favored by the county commission- ers but. which’ have received their share of private legal publications such as ‘probate and court notices, bank statements, etc.; will suffer a considerable loss in revenue, WILSON MUST DELAY TOUR FOR TWO WEEKS (Continued ‘trom’ Fage‘Gne.) ‘ and Mayor Hylan, From the Ferry terminal to Carnegie hall, a) distance of. about three miles, the presidential party passed through streets lined with cheering thousands of men, women and children, é GETS ROYAL WELCOME. From. the upper windows of the business skyscrapers great showers of confetti rained.upen the president and Mrs, Wilson, literally millions of scraps of paper -floateing through the air carrying this motto: “Everybody’s business. To stand by our government. To help the soldiers get a job. To help crush bolshevism.” The: head of.the procession was formed by several companies of sol- . diers and marines,. followed by some hundreds of sailors clad in white uni- forms. - Immediately preceding the presidential car was: an automobile filled with secret service agents, and the car itself was guarded by the presi- dent’s personal bodyguard of four pick- ed men, one of whom rode on each run- ning board throughout the trip, TEXT OF SPEECH. The full text of President Wilson’s speech at Carnegie hall follows: “Felow Countrymen: “I am not going to try this after- noon to make you'a real speech. I am a bit alarmed to find how many speech- es I have in my system undelivered, but they are all speeches that come from the mind, and I want to say to! you this afternoon only a few words from the heart. “You have made me deeply happy by the generous welcome you have extend- ed to me, but I do not believe that the welcome you extend to me is half as great as that which I extend to you. Why, Jerseyman,.though I am, this is the first time 1 ever thought that Ho- Loken was beautiful. PRESIDENT HOMESICK. “TI have really, though I have tried on the other side of the water to con- ceal it, been the most homesick man ja the American Expeditionary force, aud it is with feelings that it would be violation for me to try to express that I find myself in this beloved country again. I do not say that be- cause I lack in admiration of other countries, “There have been many things that softened my homesickness. One of the chief things that softened it was the very generous welcome that they ex- tended to me as your representative on the other side of the water. And it was still more softened by the pride that I had in-discovering that America had at last convinced the world of her true character. v sign the document. seen With their own eyes what America hed done for the world. They had deemed her selfish. They had deemed they had seen her boys come across the water with a vision even more beautiful that that which they conceiv- ed when they had entertained dreams of liberty and peace. “And then I had the added pride of finding out by personal observation the kind of men we had sent over. I had crosed the seas with the kind of men who had taken them over, with- cut whom they could not have got to Europe, and then I saw that army of roen, that army of clean men, that army of men devoted to: the high in- terests of humanity, that army that one was glad to. point out and say— ‘these are my fellows countrymen. CONFIDENCE IS WON. “It softens the homesickness a good deal to have so. much of home along with you, and these boys were con- stantly reminding me of home. They did not walk the streets like anybody else. do not mean that’the, walked the streets self-assertively. ufey did not. They walked the streets as if they knew that they belonged wherever free men lived, that they Were welcome in the great republic of France and were comrades with the other armies. that had helped to. win ‘the war and to share the great sacrifice. Because it is a wonderful thing for’ this nation, hith- erto isolated: from the: large affairs of the world, to win not only the uni- versal confidence of the people of the world but their universal affections. “And that is what has happened. Wherever it, was, suggested that troops should be sent and it was. desired that troops of occupation should excite no prejudice, no uneasiness on the part of those to whom they were sent,.the men who represented the other nations came to me and asked me to send American soldiers.. They not only implied, .but they said, that the présence of Ameri- can soldiers would be known not to mean anything except friendly protec- tion and assitance. Do you wonder that it made'our hearts swell with pride? EAGER TO GET HOME. “But while these things in'some de- gree softened my homesickness, they made me all the more eager to. get home, where .the rest: of the folks live; to get home where the great dynamo of national energy was situated; to get home where’the great purposes of rational action were formed and to be allowed to take~part in» the- counsels ord in the actions which were formed, and to be taken by this great. nation which from first to last has: followed the vision of the men who set it up and created it. We have had: our eyes very close-upon our tasks at times, but wheneyer we lifted them,. as..we were accustomed ‘to left them to. a ‘distant horizon, we were aware ‘that-all the peoples of the earth had “turned their faces toward us as those who were the friends of freedom. and:' right, «and whenever we thought of. national’ pol- icy and of its relation.upon the’ affairs of the world, we:knew We were,under bonds to. do. the large thing and:,the right thing. : ae SOME DO NOT UNDERSTAND. “It is a. privilege, therefore, beyond al) computation, for a. man, whether in a great capacity, or small, to take part in the counsels and. in the resolutions of a people like. this, I> am ; afraid sume people, some persons, do not un- cerstand that. vision. They:do not see it. They .have looked ‘too much ‘upon the ground. They have thought. too much of the interests that were near them, and they. have not. listened to the voices of their neighbors. “I haye never had a moment’s doubt ag to where the heart and purpose -of this people lay, When any one on the other side of the water has raised the question ‘will America come in; and help?’ -I have: said ‘of course America will come in and help.’ .

She will not disap- point any high hope that has - been formed of her.» Least of all will she in this day of new born liberty all over the World, fail to extend her hand of support and assistance to. those who have been made free, “I wonder if at this distance you can have got any conception of the tragic intensity of the feeling of those peoples in Europe who have just had yokes thrown off them, Have you reckoned ug in your mind, how many _ peoples, lingly under the yoke of the Austro- Hungarian empire, under the yoke of Tarkey, under the yoke of Germany? YOKES THROWN OFF, “These yokes have been thrown off. ‘These peoples breathe the air and look around to see a new day dawn about tiem, and whenever they think of what is going to fill the day with action, they think first of us.

His redirect. examination was completed this afternoon.- Gilbert waile on the stand during the afternoon session took. the league’s war program and statement of principles and analyzed it. to the jury. He was allowed considerable latitude and at times-the defense as- serted he. was making a speech to the men in the box. Gilbert declared that the program was real patriotism: as opposed to profiteering, and severely censured corporations for alleged excessive war profits, made, he said, while washerwomen’ were asked to buy government bonds on the install- ment plan. * Soldier is Called. Peter Sorenson, a soldier’ who lives at Milaca, was. called after Cravens | left the stand. Sorenson was asked) if his father was a member of the Nonpartisan league. He answered yes. The defense then sought to ques-} tion the witness regarding the speech Townley made .at -Milaca, Feb. 27, 1918. The state objected’ and was sustained. Sorenson left the stand. State Senator John B._ Stephan .of Browerville, testified regarding a speech which Townley made at a po- Uileal meeting in’ Stillwater, Feb. 19, “While Townley. was speaking there was a disturbance and I did not hear all .that was said,” Stephan testified. “Townley ‘told about laws enacted by the North Dakota legisla- ture at the last session. Some one in. the crowd asked ‘him if.they had passed a red: flag bill..- Townley sai they did not think it was necessary; that the red flag is supposed: to: be the emblem of the. oppressed and| that the people of North Dakota were not oppressed... He: also stated that there was only -one animal :, which usually .was enraged by a red flag and that animal was enclosed. by a fence. : “Then S. Isador Lott,: a Russian Jew, said- something. Townley then said: é “Look at that man;; the red flag is his flag!’ “Lott said, ‘I am an:American now and the American flag is ‘my flag.’ “Then the meeting. broke. up in a row.” ‘ . “Did: Townley. say ‘anythirg ,to ridi- cule the red flag bill pending in Min- nesota?” asked Attorney.

Ja- cobson, field agent for the United States bureau of crop estimates who has just completed an ‘extensive sur- vey of farm and commercial orchards in the state. The late spring . frosts reduced Idaho’s apple crop to but 70 per cent of normal, Mr. Jacobson’s report says. “While it is inadvisable to forecast production prior, to the June ‘drop,’’ says Mr. Jacobson, “it is interesting to, note that the June 1 condition in- dicates a total crop of. 2,871,000 bush- els. The condition a year ago was 52 per cent of normal.” ‘ The crop in the northern counties | was exceptionally good. These coun- ties, which comprise District No. 1 “| have 93 per cent of a normal crop. The Weiser and Council sections in District No. 4 also had good.crops, re- porting 90 per cent of normal. crop. In District No. 7 in the Boise and Payette valleys 60 per cent of the normal crop will be the yield. It is from this section that 61 per cent of the Idaho apple crop is shipped. Prunes suffered severely as a re- sult of the weather, district No. 7 where 90 per cent of the prune crop is raised, reporting that only 45 per cent of a normal crop is expected. The cherry crop in the state will be 62, per cent of normal, this fruit 0 | having also suffered from frost. The report on peaches from dis- tricts No. 1 and 7 shows 68 and 62 per cent, respectively, of a normal crop. , The prospect for the pear crop is 70 per cent of normal and reports on ‘blackberries. indicate a 95 per cent crop. ‘ T0O LATE TO CLASSIFY ~ WANTED-—Girl or woman for house work, small family.

PIONEER HAS AN IDEA ABOUT WEST Believes More Trees; More Lakes and Less Hopper , Dope, Would Do Trick SUGGESTIONS FOR U. S. Thinks Government Should In- terest Itself in Making Soil More Fruitful John Sherman Gogin, pioneer Cav- alier county farmer, was in the city yestrday en route home by motor from Napoleon, whither he accom- panied Mrs. Gogin for a visit with her mother, “Grandma” Sabrow, probably the best known and most loved wo- man in Logan county. Crops in.the eastern half of the state as far south.as the main line ot. the Northern Pacific are in splen- did shape, reports Mr..‘Gogin, fal- lowing a drive through that. region. South. of. the Northern Pacific the yield will not be so heavy. .Jn Logan and lmmons counties, particularly, rain is very badly needed. Much of the crop in that section has gone bad m the last week, Ten days ago the prospects never had been better.. To- day: there: are scores of.fields which tava been practically w-ped out by a combination of hoppers: and. drouth.~ ! Mr. Gogin has some ideas of his own on both the subject of drouths and.of hoppers. He blames grass- hopper. poison to a large extent: for the present scourge in central North Dakota. . “We went through the same, thing years ago in Cavalier county,” said the veteran farmer, who came to North Dakota in 1887. ‘We Jeft-the hoppers. to their natural enemies and. other devourers ‘of these insects—and they cleared: them up. Out here, tho, you have -been using hopper poison for several: years, and I am confident that it has done more harm than good: through the birds which this poison has destroyed: In Cavalier county today we haven't even enough hoppers left to keep:the prairie chickens satisfied.” 8 With regard to drouth, Mr. Gogin advocates a forestration policy. “This will never be a big crop country un- til your farmers plant more trees,” said the Cavalier county man. “Some very good and great people have de- clined to agree with me, but I still insist that forests contribute greatly to our rainfall. Cavalier county’ oc- cupies a greater altitude than Bis- marck, but we have a much greater rainfall because a large portion’ of our area is still heavily wooded. “Another thing that should be done and which must be done if central and western North Dakota are ever to become the garden spot they should be is the damning of your riv- ers and creeks to form lakes where- ever the tcpography is favorable. We haven’t enough expanse of water. out here. There isn’t enough evaporation to provide rainfall at home. We must wait until the rain, blows in from out- side, and often, as in the. present in- stance, we have to wait tao long. “If our state and national govern- ments would interest themselves, with these things—with the establishment of forest reserves in these prairie states; with the creation of artificial reservoirs which will serve as drouth- breakers, and _,. with:increasing .1he fruitfulness of our soil and the pros- perity of its tillers—rather than with public ownership and control,.patern- alism and other socialistic . hobbies about which they are becoming hys- terical,” concluded Mr. Gogin.
