ie fe 7 PAGE EIGi«f DR. WORST GORS TO WASHINGTON: LIGGETT MAY G0 Deputy for State Immigration Commission Has Been Work- ing for League at Capital IS SEEKING IMMIGRANTS| Commissioner May Visit Ellis Island to Investigate Pos- sibilities There Dr. J. 1. Wor ate commissioner of immigration, “who has gone to Washington to confer with federal im- niigration officials to determine the possibilities of influencing certain immigrants from ‘Europe to settle on North Dakota farms, is expected to return to Bismarck May 20. While in the east, it is understood, Dr. Worst may visit Elis Island, New York, where large numbers of im- migrants arrive from European coun- tries. Newly arrived immigrants are idered an excellent source from to obtain a vaiuable class of settlers for ‘North Dakota farms and Dr. Worst, it is said, wishes to investigate the situation there thor- oughly before returning to Bismarck so as to be able to give first hand information on its possibilities, It is also understood that the state immigration department has been more or less displeased with the pol- itical activities of Walter W. Liggett. one of the department's deputies, who is stationed at Washington, D. C., presumably to represent the separt ment at the nation’s capital. Liggett has been at Washington since last December, it is said, and during that time he has repeatedly spread pro- paganda for the ‘Nonpartisan league. Ne is also said to represent all of the league newspapers at the’ capital. Dr. Worst has endeavored to keep the ion department out of is presumed that he with the political ac- seett at Washington. It is believed that the commissioner in- terviewed Liggett at the subject while at Washington, but as Liggett ranks high in league circles and as the taxpayers of North Dakota are footing the bill for his political pro- paganda, the prospt for fight over Liggett’s position seems probable. FIRE DESTROYS FINE BARN WITH VALUABLE STOCK Valley City, N. D., May 11.—Four valuable work horses seven fresh milch cows and seven small calves perished in a midnight blaze Satur- day evening, when fire completely destroyed the barn.on the old Schultz farm in Owego, fourteen miles south- east of Sheldon. Arthur Strand, who was returning to his home east of the village about éleven o'clock Saturday evening; noticed the flames shooting out of the! timber and immediately drove to the place and aroused Bert Weston, who is operating the farm for his father, Herb Weston’ of Valley City. Mr. Weston was sleeping on the op- posite side of the house, only a few Storm Windows Taken cff and Screens Put on, and everything else. Phone 477K CREWSKY'S SHOE SH.P Bismarck, N.

When 'Mr. Strand arrived the top portion of the building was burned away and’ the lower part was a mass of roaring flames. All that could be { done was to stand by and witness the animals perish. The fire’s origin seems to be a mystery. Mr. Weston states that he had done up the chores Saturday evening before dark”and no lantern was used about the place and neither Mr. Weston or any of his help smoke j the starting of the fire seems all the more mysterious. ‘Besides the livestock, Mr. Weston lost six sets of work harness and a ; Valuable cattle dog. He places his loss on the stock at over $2,000 with no insurance. ‘MOSCOW SUFFERS FROM SHORTAGE OF DRUG CURES Russia Soviet Capital All Out of Many Kinds of Medicines, as Well as Fuel Warsaw, May 11,—Advices from Moscow state that in March there was a great dearth of nearly all kinds of medicines in the Russian city and that many drug stores had been cam- pelled to close. Scarcity of wood and coal was also reported, the informa- tion received here indicating that numerous frame houses and various other buildings of wood were being demolished to be used as fuel. A 'Pole who came from Moscuw within the last few weeks said that while food was terribly expensive there was plenty for those who had rubles which were worth, estimated in American money, a fraction more than one cent. A shave cost 75 ru- bles and soap 800 rubles a pound. Cigarettes were worth about 70 ru- bles each and matches, 100 rubles a box. Horse meat sold for 350 rubles a pound, beef bringing 650 rubles for the same weight. Pork was 1,009 a pound. Black bread retailed 50 rubles a pound, butter 2,500 and fats 2,000 per pound. Sugar brought 1,500 a pound when obtainable and salt was nearly al. ways to be hadvat 750 rubles a pound. Clothing for men and women was so expensive that the poorer classes either made their own suits or wore patched garments which they had owned for years. ENGLAND MAKING PLANS FOR ANNUAL PILGRIM FESTIVAL Ceremonies in September Will Mark 300th Anniversary of Sailing from Plymouth Plymouth Eng., May 11.—Prepara- tions for the tercentenary celebration in September of the sailing of the Pilgrim fathers are already in ad- vanced stage here. The program, as present arranged, opens on September 3 with a civic reception. On the morning of Sep- tember 4 a literary and’ historical conference is to take place. In the afternoon there is to be an historical procession with tableaux and a united religious service will be held in the evening, An open-air meeting is to held at the Mayflower stone on Sunday morn- ing, September 5. This is the his- toric spot on the Barbicah from which the Pilgrim Fathers embarked in 1620. A play based on the story of the Pilgrim fathers is being' written for production here. In all probability there will be a ball in the Guildhall. From September 1 to 10 the 'May- flower pageant is to be presented with Captain the Rev. Hugh Parry as the pageant master. This will later be produced in the provinces and subsequently taken to America. The public is advised that the Bismarck Water Supply Co. is cleaning their reservoir, and while so doing is furnishing con- sumers with untreated raw river water. As this water is danger- ous to use for drinking without first boiling consumers are ad- vised to boil the water until notified the same is safe. Signed C. E.

D. ‘OF PESSIMISM IN LINGERING NOTES WILSON CANTATA) Members of Official Choir Chant of Dire Disaster in Sol- emn Melody COLBY’S’ VOICE IS NOISY Washington, May 11.—Loud sounds the note of pessimism in a chorus of utterances from President Wilson’s official family; the country and whole universe is going to the ever- lasting bowwows. “Utter disaster is near,” exclaimed Secretary of State Colby at a meeting in New York, “The world really is at the orink,’ he added; /‘let great and liberal Americanism take possession of our minds and wills.” His plea was for more Amegican succor for Europe; not a word’ about relief for distressed America itself suffering from the burdens put upon it by the mismanagement of the war and the enormous amount of aid it has sent to suffering lands. According to Colby’s remarks, this coun try merely “a great workaday re- public of preoccupied. men and wo. men, well meaning b&t humanly sel fish which he begs not to conserve “its comfort and security and God- given and personally quite unde served commercial and trade advan- tages.” “Let ug be roused: from our distractions and preoccupations,” Mr. Wilson’s spokesman exclaimed. “Let us give of our political power, of our government strength, of our pecuniary means, to the. world; it is the only enlightened policy.” With respect to help from Amer- ica for the suffering people of other lands, everyone feels that when the individual American can assist in relieving this su @, it~ is a worthy thing for him to do it. But such assistance is one thing and the notion preached by Mr. “Colby—in support really of the Wilson league convenant—that America must con sider international and world inter- ests before thinking of herself, is an other thing. SUNDAY SCHOOLS TO HOLD TWO BIG MEETINGS IN JUNE Burleigh County Delegaies Will Attend Convention at : Valley City Plans for the coming double header convention of the North Dakota ‘Sun- day School ociation are going on with fine ‘prospects that the conven- tion this year will mark an epoch in the work of the association. “The! plan of having the convention meet i in two parts is meeting with marked favor,” said James C, Garrison, state superintendent recently, “and from reports coming into the state office, we are likely to have a record break- ing attendance..” The convention will. meet during the week of June 13, holding its: first meeting at Minot, on the 13, 14 and 15. The second meeting will be held, in Valley City on the 16, 17 and 18.!

Those attending the Minot conven- tion, delegates from McKenzie, Wil- ams, iMountrail, Divide, Burke, Ward, McLean, Renville, Bottineau, McHen- ry, Pierce, Wells, Benson, Ramsey.

Richland, Grand, Forks, and Pembina. “Quotas have been given to the county associations as to tle number of delegates and these are being ac- eepted with enthusiasm,” says Mr Garrison. E. i. Wooldridge, presi- ~ent of the sottineau Coumty associa- tion, writes that “Bottineau will be here with her quota and then. some.” Miss Cooch of the Ransom County association says that if Ransom does not have its full quota and to spare, it will not be her fault. A. L, An- derson, of the Mountrail association, expects to have a worthy delegation of the workers from that county. George Kreutzberg, of the La Moure association is planning great things for La Moure’s delegation, and so the reports go from all over the state. “The county conventions are in full swing now,” said Mr. Garrison, “and some active personal promotion will be given this great mee!
